This mod is for those who think that turrets working without electricity is unrealistic! It adds a small power consumption to turrets, slightly more than a light bulb.

This mod will not create a significant load on your network, but with a complete power outage, your base will become very vulnerable. This will encourage you to take energy production and base defense more seriously.

At the moment, I have managed to implement power consumption for machine gun and rocket turrets.

For some reason, the same approach to the code does not work for flamethrower and artillery turrets.

Also, by request, power consumption has been added for the mods My_add_pack_updated and ironclad-gunboat-and-mortar-turret-fork (not tested).
