Adds batteries made of different metals with different stats




Seven batteries are added, each requiring different materials and providing different benefits. Some of them are locked behind additional research. The uranium battery even comes with special mechanics, watch out!





Steel battery
The vanilla battery, costs more steel but also has higher capacity.

Silver battery
Improved in all areas, costs silver in addition to base materials. Very cost-efficient.

Golden battery
High efficiency, normal capacity. Allows you to have less energy production overall due to high efficiency.

Plasteel battery
Normal efficiency, high capacity. Very light, does not short-circuit in rain and can not break down. Perfect to power deep drills or to have energy on caravan expeditions.

Uranium battery
High efficiency, very high capacity. Unlike the previous ones this one has incredibly high stats for it's cost. It can however short-circuit in rain, explodes violently when damaged and generates a lot of heat. Temperatures above 20°C (68°F) will cause the efficiency to drop.

Advanced battery
High efficiency, high capacity. Ultimate constructable battery, does not short-circuit in rain and does never break down.

Vanometric battery
Like the vanometric power cell, this one can only be found, not constructed. It has supreme stats, but also high market value, making it expensive to buy and attractive to raiders.
Capacity: 2500
Efficiency: 100%

@Mlie I'm more just yelling at clouds. Thanks for keeping all these mods going Mlie :D

@Bazalisk You should inform the original author about your findings so they do not continue to have this misconception about conductivity

Seeing gold having a higher efficiency than silver is jarring. Its the third best conductor.
- Silver: ~106% IACS
- Copper: ~100% IACS
- Gold: ~76% IACS

@Halfelfaedyn Please see the Reporting Issues section described above

Got an error, I copied down the full error but can't paste it all here: Type MetallicBatteries.Building_Battery_DrawAt probably needs a StaticConstructorOnStartup attribute, because it has a field public static UnityEngine.Material MetallicBatteries.Building_Battery_DrawAt::BatteryBarFilledMateralOverride of type UnityEngine.Material. All assets must be loaded in the main thread.

@zecond Fixed the typo

Straight from the def for golden battery

<description>A battery enhanced with gold for optimal efficiency. Gold batteries will short-circuit in rain and can break down, but generate no heat.\n\nCapacity: 750 Wd\nEfficiency: 100%</description>
It is a typo though and the only place its wrong.
Mlie  [author] 23 Dec, 2024 @ 10:03pm 
@zecond Not sure what you mean, both the preview and the table in the description states that the golden battery has 90% efficiency.
