189 Radars. And they're cutting out like crazy right now. UPS sub-30, power more than sufficient (24k solar, two 480+ nuclear power plants... using about 1.5GW but that's satisfied).

So, why does core coverage cut out all the time now, even in daylight? My radars aren't even my main users (that'd be the 1900 roboports )

EDIT: Couple minutes later: coverage completely stable again. Power use at 1.0GW. Hmm, there *is* a connection, I just don't see it. Every time power consumption goes over 1GW, I get radar trouble.

A save would be useful, maybe your power networks are not connected, and you drain power from a source that is insufficent ?

All of them at the same time? Or just some of them? If the later then Koub's guess, a separate/disconnected electrical network, sounds like a likely culprit.

All of them in "waves". On the map, they all(!) blink on and off in an irregular pattern... well, in a non-pattern, at least none that is obvious.

And the save is 30MB and has a ton of mods. I don't see any of those mods being able to have that effect.

screenshots of the radars and the electric info panel would be nice...

Just a heads up... it's a bit on the back burner since it's not really gamebreaking, just... annoying not to know *why*.

I had a map saved where it showed the effect, but... then overwrote it by accident. Will post/upload (or try at least) when I see it happen again. *If* I see it happen again, because of course it could get "fixed" when that which causes it changes.
