Eats fuel, spits out power, hums smugly. Crafted at the Crafting Bench from Copper Ore and Hemlock, or earned in the quest 'Welcome to Virelda'.
How generators work
Generators are powered using Coal. Each generator maintains its own fuel queue. Once all fuel is consumed, the generator shuts off and halts any connected crafting processes.
- All generator in an apartment must be active to power any Crafting Station.
- Active generators display a purple glowing light; inactive generators appear dormant.
Fuel efficiency
Each Coal provides 0.03 hours of fuel duration when used in a generator.
How to use
To activate a generator:
- Stand next to it and interact to open its menu.
- Select the amount of Coal to add (whole units only).
- Confirm to begin powering connected stations.
Placement and access
Apartment owners can:
- Arrange generators to match Crafting Station wattage needs.
- Control access rights for guests or collaborators.
For power tips and wattage details, see Crafting Stations.
