[2.0.11] Offshore Pump does not consume electricity?

Post by FactorioFan822 »

Perhaps this is intended behavior, but it sure did surprise me to find that the Offshore Pump does not require electricity to function.

Thanks for the report however that is Not a bug. If offshore pump would require electricity, then you would not be able to get initial electricity until solar panels and given its not possible to run lab without electricity, that would make game soft locked.

Damn, you're right! I guess I'm brain-broken from too much playing Space Exploration, with their additional early tier of coal-only electricity generation, thanks!
