V-Capacitor [V-Power CPack]

Increases maximum energy storage by 10 but is quite poor at containing uncontained V-Grid power. This unit is going to be your life-line to ensure you don't experience brownouts as 100 energy storage is A LOT smaller than 200 and the extra buffer can be VERY useful.

  • Increases maximum energy storage by 10.
  • Reduces uncontained V-Grid power by 0.4.
  • Costs 60 Lithic to build.
  • 1 HP.
  • Will experience basic damage during brownouts1).
  • Releases an EMP upon structural failure, stunning units a fair ways away. Is completely harmless otherwise unlike the V-Rod and V-Reactor.

All numbers are the vanilla/base version of the CPack. They can be changed at any time by any map maker.

This link will take you to the forum page that heavily covers the V-Power CPack and all it's units. Including the CPack download: http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=40502.msg202814#msg202814

1)
A brownout is when a power-grid demands more energy than is available, resulting in damage to electrical equipment as the electric current is strained to the point of burning any non-resistant thing that it flows through, including the wires themselves at times. All items on the electrical circuit are also strained for power. A lightbulb on a circuit experiencing a brownout will struggle to shine brightly, regularly dimming and brightening with the flow of the electric current.
