Generators are one of the most important parts of a spaceship, as they convert fuel into electrical energy in an efficient process. They are extremely modular, and can be configured into complexes of many different shapes and sizes - however, for each adjacent generator, the heat output is also increased.

Basic Usage

• Receives Processed Fuel from the fuel chamber and converts it to Power.
  • This process also generates Heat.
  • NOTE! The generators will constantly consume Processed fuel, wasting excess Power unless their ConversionRateLimit is modified via YOLOL
• There are six connectors, one on each side.
• Other modules can be attached to the connectors.
  • For every adjacent generator unit, extra heat will be generated.
• Produces 1000 units of electricity per second, if enough fuel is available.
• One fuel rod can support 3 generator units, or 3000 units of electricity per second.
  • With an enhanced fuel chamber, a fuel rod can support more generator units.
