WARNING NOTE
Original Better Charging currently features 1 status effect that makes all devices nearby detoriate extremely quick, probably as revenge after Moon's drama in undertow. This version removes this and will be maintained instead of original mod creator.
Better Charging is a mod that makes battery cell and oxygen tank charging better!
The aim of this mod was to make battery cells and oxygen tank charging more immersive, realistic and more interesting game play wise.
Better Battery cell charging!
No longer are battery cells free to charge, they now all have an energy cost! Battery cells will make the charging dock draw more power and draw charge from a battery if charged there!
In addition battery chargers now have a blinking red status led when charging that switches to solid green when done! Also a green power led on the left to tell you when the charger has power. Each battery cell will take 100KW while recharging and take 5 minutes.
Charging battery cells from batteries now shows the cells on the battery cell slots and draws charge from the battery. They will draw 500kW/minutes to charge total and take 2 minutes. Both charging methods take equal amounts of power overall.
Better Oxygen Tank charging!
Charging oxygen tanks now consumes hull oxygen and 100KW of power to refill each oxygen tank. Charging oxygen tanks takes 5 minutes and draws 2x the amount of oxygen that a person would use from the hull. While 5 minutes may sound slow, this still means one oxygen tank holder can provide enough oxygen for 6 crew!
All power consumption drops when charging is finished and increases if you charge more then one cell or oxygen tank at once.
