[Pending] Equipment is not being powered

Post by caleb547 »

Hi,
In my recent game, I have gone through all stages of power armor and tried powering them with reactors and solar panels, and when I put another component in like a shield or a battery, They get no power, and the bars are all black and also when I put in a shield, the purple shield bar is not there

Hi,

I'm having the same issue. Is there something specific I need to do to power up the shields and battery? I've tried standing next to power sources and such.

If you need a copy of my save game, let me know how I can get it to you and I'll be happy to help. :)

Does the Forum allow attachments as big as a whole late-game save? The OP might have to use one of those file-sharing sites.

Question for the original poster: does your armor have personal roboports? I thought my armor was bugged for a while until I looked more carefully (right click on armor, hover over each item in the armor) and discovered my personal roboports were just charging - super slowly. Eventually all 7 filled up and then the battery did, too.

You need to use a Portable Fusion Reactor (or special solar panels) to power your armor.
