About Cargo ships - No free power

From Factorio Mod Portal

Removes the infinite power generation granted by the offshore oil-pump, by setting power production of the EEI to 0

Cargo ships - No free power

Cargo Ships Oil rigs by default contain an entity supplying free power to accomodate module use without the need to hook up to the electric network. It can be fun to get free energy when you accidentally add the oil rig to the main network, it isn't very balanced. This mod sets the "infinite energy" entity production to 0.

This may cause issues where the oil rig can't get enough power when working with modules. To mitigate this you'll need to integrate the oil rig to your network.

Features

No more free energy!

Ideas for the future

Water-based pylons/substations Retain flexible power production, but burn oil that's pumped up as fuel(To a limit)
