TianJian Posted April 1, 2017 Author Share Posted April 1, 2017 had start making it since the beginning , but at 70 cycle it come out this issue since i didnt add anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sicclee Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 you have to split up your circuits. i ran into this problem on my second colony. didn't realize the total circuit couldn't exceed 2kw power usage. not everything can be connected to each other if you are pulling more than 2kw of power total.

heckubis Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 try setting up small independent systems. they don't overload and don't stop because something that didn't need power used all of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantum1000 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 If you really want, for whatever reason, to squeeze a whole bunch of wattage onto a single normal wire, you can build a clock by putting a gas pump, a temperature sensor and a vent in a box and setting the temperature sensor to detect warmer than a value colder than the gas you're using. The vacuum the pump creates will be cold enough to trip the sensor which will turn off the pump and everything else and avoid a short circuit.

Lifegrow Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I've resorted to many separate circuits with randomly "plonked" manual generators/goal generators feeding scattered battery banks Just don't forget that it's only the machines that CONSUME power that count towards the 1kw (LW wire) or 2kw (HW wire). You can have as many batteries/power generators on a circuit as you want, but as soon as your consuming machines go above and beyond the circuits maximum wire threshold, things will start to break... Also, don't mix wires on your circuits unless you know what you're doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
