Properties

energy_usage

• Type: Energy
• Optional: false
• Override: false

The amount of energy this radar uses.

Examples

energy_usage = "300kW"

energy_per_sector

• Type: Energy
• Optional: false
• Override: false

The amount of energy it takes to scan a sector. This value doesn't have any effect on nearby scanning.

Examples

energy_per_sector = "10MJ"

energy_per_nearby_scan

• Type: Energy
• Optional: false
• Override: false

The amount of energy the radar has to consume for nearby scan to be performed. This value doesn't have any effect on sector scanning.

Performance warning: nearby scan causes re-charting of many chunks, which is expensive operation. If you want to make a radar that updates map more in real time, you should keep its range low. If you are making radar with high range, you should set this value such that nearby scan is performed once a second or so. For example if you set energy_usage to 100kW, setting energy_per_nearby_scan to 100kJ will cause nearby scan to happen once per second.

Examples

energy_per_nearby_scan = "250kJ"

energy_source

• Type: EnergySource
• Optional: false
• Override: false

The energy source for this radar.

• Type: boolean
• Optional: true
• Override: false

energy_fraction_to_connect

• Type: float
• Optional: true
• Override: false

Must be between 0 and 1. Must be larger than or equal to energy_fraction_to_disconnect.

energy_fraction_to_disconnect

• Type: float
• Optional: true
• Override: false

Must be between 0 and 1. Must be less than or equal to energy_fraction_to_connect.

is_military_target

• Type: boolean
• Optional: true
• Override: true

Whether this prototype should be a high priority target for enemy forces. See Military units and structures.
