[0.16.51] Build-order effecting what gets power

Post by Dupl3xxx »

When a power generating entity is shared between two electric networks, the one that was connected first gets full priority. In the image posted, if the left-most pole gets placed first, the radars will get power, and not the inserter. If the right-most pole is placed first, the inserter will get power, and the radars will get the excess. I expected the power to be shared.

Thanks for the report however I don't consider this worth working on. Just don't make split networks from 1 producer if you don't have enough power to power all things connected.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Interesting. Perhaps this can be used in a warning system. Will investigate when i can.
