My makeshift engine

I did this when the original engine got eaten up

I actually was there when you made it, nice job, I guess. But yeah, the engine is a clusterfuck. Also the radiation collectors could be moved a bit closer.

I'm also confused as to how the containment is sustained. I thought objects in its way disable it or is it only for generators? I really don't want to look in the code for that, but it just, doesn't seem right.

_{Oh and also it's even easier to disable than the standard one, but makes for a makeshift one}

Meh well I try, and the containment fields only work in a 9x9 square with one field generator in each corner, regardless of the obstacles.

Actually I tried to make an engine on the old tg code, and it did, which spawns a singularity when you make containment.

This is retarded? The admin's are retarded here so nobody ever play
's there server they should Unban everyone beacause people now going to Liberty and the admin's really like me there Facepunch suck's i'm never going back they didn't even read my Post or Reply to it Facepunch if more like Waist of time punch so Seeya nigger's

This engine is awesome.

Coolpey, is that why I still see a lot of alts of yours pop up? Lol.

Coolpey, you suck

Yes, makeshift-hidden engine is awesum
but it doesn't supply enough power since it's connected to only one smes battery.

This can be circiumvened by wiring the, let's say "chokepoint" between the terminal and the SMES output to the main net AND hotwiring Engineering to the main net too so that way, 4 SMESes will be able to charge. This WILL make the engine vulnerable to a power sink, but hey, if you've got an engine malfunction, that's the last thing you've got to worry about!

Hmm it is true that wiring the engine directly to the main power lines will give MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF RAW POWEH, about +300k.

and I think you already told me that tip once when we were setting up the engine, it was before you were admin.

As long as we're on the topic of makeshift objects. I make this the other night, with some help from Zyuta, and design suggestions from Heszeth. I couldn't get the entire thing to fit in a single screencap, so I patched together multiple images in MS paint. So please excuse the odd image outlining.
