Vas's Power Distribution

Short Description: This will alter your distribution of power so that life support and some critical systems will still work, when running low on power.

--------------------------

Let me explain each resource group for you so you can understand why mine is better than KeenSWH's version. I'll list them in KeenSWH's distribution order.
Defense, Conveyor, Factory, Door, Utility, Charging, Gyro, Thrust, **Generators**, Battery

Defense - Your defensive systems, the most critical portion of your ship as it protects your ship's existence.

Conveyor - The main pipeline of your ship, carrying fuel to your reactors and thrusters, Oxygen to your rooms, items from container to container, ammunition to your turrets.

Factory - High power long duration power consumption facilities that smelt or produce items. Usually the main cause of power drains in ships.

Door - You walk through them.

Utility - Life Support, cryo tubes, lights, many things in your ship that consume small amounts of power. Some Utilities consume a lot, but your primary critical systems are here too.

Charging - Jump drives, the only thing in the game that belongs to this group.

Gyro - Small power consumption devices that help you rotate your ship.

Thrust - Your ship's thrusters. Hydrogen thrusters consume practically no energy at all, Ion a lot.

Generators -

Battery - Your power storage.

--------------------------

Keen's version has it so that life support, doors, thrust, gyros, will shutdown if you have too much power going into your refineries/assemblers. There goes your ship, if you happen to die, and can't spawn back at it, and can't shut off the refineries before the ship smashes into an asteroid cause the thrusters couldn't engage.

Whoops, your jump drives just sucked up all the power, now your gyros and thrusters don't work till you turn off jump drives.

--------------------------

So, I've changed the distribution to make more sense. Factories are near the end of the list now, as they consume power for a long duration of time in generally large amounts. Jump Drives are now second to last, so that they can still be charged but won't shut down your ship in the process.

Defense, Conveyors, Doors, Utilities, Gyro, Thrust, Factory, Charging, Generators, Battery

Now you can go through doors when low on power, your utilities will still function most likely, you can stop rotating a wildly spinning ship, and thrust while factories are engaged. Solar power is now useful because almost all the things above Thrust in my list, are low power devices.
