Hi,

is there a way to add a challenge and add a power usage for loaders?
Otherwise it feels kinda cheaty to me...

There may be a way. When I have time I can look into it. In the mean time you can turn the recipes up to 11, and they become hellishly expensive. Check out the recipe image for the settings to tick.

hi kira,
thanks for the advice.

its not about the cost efficiency i care, but about the upkeep-costs.
Perhaps its enough to set the drain to ~500kw or 1MW, so that one has really to think about IF and where it is helpful to use loaders, instead of spamming all stations and assemblers with them.

Just setting up the costs is something that wont hurt you after having sent 20k rockets - but having 1000loaders draining 1 MW each... ouch - you would have to constantly expand your nuclear plant...

Hello guys! I agree with Speadge and want to ask for (optional) add power usage for loaders too.
Suggest this for beginning:

["basic-loader"] = 75 KW
["loader"] = 150 KW
["fast-loader"] = 250 KW
["express-loader"] = 400 KW
["purple-loader"] = 650 KW
["green-loader"] = 1 MW

Can't wait! Thanks for great mod!!!

If you can, i please ask you again for adding (deactivateable by menu checkbox) some hidden entity with power consumption... Or maybe you can talk and give this 2x1 art to miniloader author, because he ask for such gfx to do 2x1 version...
