[0.15.2] Cannot set energy drain value for the lamp entity
Posted: Tue Apr 25, 2017 8:40 pm
Hi,
I ran into a problem that the drain value of the electric source (50W) of the lamp entity is not the same as the actual value from the electric network statistics (13.3kW):
And this actual value correlates only to the energy_usage_per_tick property of my custom prototype:
800kW => 26.5kW
400kW => 13.3kW
Reproduce script (Just load attached save file):
[0. Add new instance of the lamp prototype;]
1. Add the drain property into energy_source = { ... };
2. Run Factorio and place single lamp entity, add power generation for it;
3. Check drain in the entity properties (which is equal to the drain value from the entity);
4. Check value from the electric network stats (which is different).
Thanks,
Alex
