The engine converts energy stored in gas using a thermal reaction (combustion) It converts (part of) another power source (gasoline, or diesel) into electrical energy, and stores it in the battery. How does ones car recharge the battery when its in use could be the same idea here.Įasy. That's what I just said, that you can charge 4 power cells and not even use a full charge from one of the six in the Cyclops power supply sockets. For certain with the power efficiency module, but perhaps even without it. You guys sure? Because the folks on Reddit have been saying that you can get infinite power by putting power cell chargers inside the cyclops and then use those to replace the empty ones once they are depleted. After they figure that out, though, definitely needs fixing. However, the Cyclops lacks an alternative for charging (that I know of) besides hauling out the power cells by hand and charging them in-base, so until they implement a method for the Cyclops to charge itself, I'd say leave it the way it is. When those 4 power cells are charged, you won't have even drained 1 of the Cyclops power cells. If you have a full Cyclops charge, and, let's say you have 2 power cell chargers, like me, and you fill them, so 4 power cells charging from a fully-charged (6-cell) Cyclops. It's useless in fact because it's just a cycle lol etc the electricity just gets conducted through the foundations, then there are those power transmitters that you can use to extent the range of the electrical power, so why not have a panel on Cyclops and Prawn Suit that can pick up the electrical current to charge the power cells, same as the Cyclops Thermal Reactor Module to charge both the Cyclops and Prawn Suit considering there are obviously some type of panel to pick up heat and change it to energy ? Probably cause the devs still want it to be a 'mobile base' so you can charge anywhere near a heat source without having a base around, but yeah, this idea would also help.I have one in my Cyclops, this is not true. Yes, I know all this, but for foundations. And there's always the options of the game mods. The cyclops you just have to make some powercell chargers.Īnd both of them can, in the later game, get a moddule to recharge from any nearby heat source. The prawn can be charged the same way the seamoth can.
