Changelog

Version: 2.0.2
Date: 2025-01-20
  Changes:
    - removed setting for halving power consumption of various entities, and added a new setting for a variable multiplier
    - reverted solar panel production change from version 1.2.0 so solar panels are back to producing 5.4kW (ongoing games will not be affected unless you manually reset the solar multiplier to default). This increases the difficulty by default to have a more realistic value for solar panel output again. If you think this is too punishing, you can adjust the power consumption multiplier
    - Note: This mod is not tested for Space Age. If you notice anything being off, in particular if some buildings don't get affected by the power multiplier please submit a bug report

Version: 2.0.1
Date: 2025-01-16
  Changes:
    - slightly changed formula for capacity of accumulators, so now the numbers look nicer (2% more capacity)
    - added setting to halve the power consumption for most entities (had been previously a fixed part of the mod, and then accidentally removed at some point)
    - halved power consumption of lamps to make more sense from a realism perspective
    - fixed error in migration script for mod version 1.1.2

Date: 2024-10-24
  Changes:
