Okay, this is getting a little long, but bare with me.
Been playing as CE the couple of last days on the server, but even in this short time in almost every round the same structural problems appear, from highest priority to lowest :
1)
Sniper_Trooper wrote:Two Solars in the north. i find if the station runs out of power two solars can not power the station. (Maybe)
Also a small solar for mining. power thare can run out if it happend you must go back all the way to the station grab a battery i find that this is to much work this is why i ask for it also it need the solars so someone (ME) can turn it into a fortesss (Maybe)
Definitely these points.
Solars are in the station's shadow half of the time.
The SMES go offline after the dark-time. i even tried to setup the Singularity-SMES properly into the Grid, but it is not enough.
They switch to offline when hitting 0% and need constant attention.
Two Solars to the North would be great, preferably near the Bridge so the vertical hallway between EngWing and Bridge can be used for quick access
Singularity is almost never set up and when it is, something bad happens or it dies down again.
Now please dont say BUT IT'S YOUR JOB, most of the time i was the only ( reporting ) engineer, i cannot keep both the station
and a ticking time-bomb in good shape.
How about a Gas-Engine ?
Or even better, only solars.
Enlarge the current ones and add some Northern ones.
( a green station, this could be a trendsetter !)
2) The medbay APCs are NEVER charging.
Actually, they seem not to recognize that they are connected to the grid.
I checked the underlaying wiring multiple times now.
It seems to be a mapbug, i tried to rewire the whole thing but it won't work.
Some other guys also told me it is a map bug.
I have no idea what causes the problem.
So yeah, fix that please.

I don't know what is wrong with that)
3) Eng Secure Storage needs metal, glass and plasteel stocks.
The stuff laying infront of it never is enough when serious damaged has to be repaired quickly. (

4) There are exactly 2 wire-pieces missing in order to have the EngWing efficently under Solars.
Look at this picture :
https://i.servimg.com/u/f44/17/44/10/03/eng_wi10.jpgThe current wiring does allow the Eng-APCs to be charged with the Seng.Engine SMES but not the Solar-SMES directly.
That means when the Sing-SMES go offline, EngWing goes dark eventually.
More than few times this short blackout-period, between Sing-SMES initial Power level hitting zero, and Solars being set up properly and running, has been used to get easy access to EngWing and steal stuff.
So the first order of buisness of mine is to lay those 2 pieces of wire. nothing too difficult, i just wonder why it is this way.

P.S. most awesome RP ever on this server !
