| - | # Energy and Electricity | + | ====== |
| - | The Energy and Electricity | + | Energy and Electricity |
| - | Besides a way to generate electricity for your machines, an energy network requires an [[Energy Regulator]]; without it power transfer cannot happen. | + | This category unlocks after you make enough progress in [[basic_machines|Basic Machines]]. |
| + | If you want the broader progression context instead of only machine-by-machine docs, read [[factory_bootstrap|Factory Bootstrap Guide]] and [[alloys_and_core_tech|Alloys and Core Tech]] alongside this page. | ||
| - | You may also want to use [[Energy Capacitors]], | + | ===== Building |
| - | The [[Energy Connectors | Energy | + | - Place an [[energy_regulator|Energy Regulator]] to serve as the heart of the network. |
| + | - Add one or more generators such as a [[coal_generator|Coal Generator]] or [[solar_generator|Solar Generator]]. | ||
| + | - Extend or route the network with [[energy_connectors|Energy Connectors]]. | ||
| + | - Store spare charge in [[energy_capacitors|Energy | ||
| + | - Check live power levels with a [[multimeter|Multimeter]]. | ||
| - | Some machines have a buffer, meaning they can store a certain amount of energy. Unlike [[energy_capacitors | capacitors]], | + | ===== Management and monitoring ===== |
| - | Electric machines are best used with a [[cargo_management | + | ^ Page ^ What it does ^ |
| + | | [[energy_regulator|Energy Regulator]] | Core block that manages | ||
| + | | [[energy_connectors|Energy Connectors]] | Extends a network so power can reach more machines. | | ||
| + | | [[energy_capacitors|Energy Capacitors]] | Stores spare energy | ||
| + | | [[multimeter|Multimeter]] | Reads charge and capacity from energy network blocks. | | ||

| + | |||
| + | * A machine without enough stored or incoming power will simply stop until the network catches up. | ||
| + | * Cargo systems become much more valuable once you start running several electric machines at once. | ||
| + | * If a machine page is still missing, the in-game guide is the best place to confirm its exact recipe and research requirement. | ||
