Band node

Acquisition

Summary

  • Consumes 300 W of power when tuned, 100 W of power when untuned.
  • Increases a mechanitor's bandwidth by +1 per band node if powered.
  • A band node must be tuned, which takes 300 ticks (5 secs). This happens autonomously; mechanitor does not need to be present for tuning to happen.
  • Band nodes can be retuned to another mechanitor, but the process takes 3 days.

Analysis

  • All other ways of increasing bandwidth are limited; they require the mechanitor to wear an item.
  • Allows the use of more mechanoids. Combat mechs can be very useful for defense.
  • Heavy on both power and resources.
  • Does not block wind turbines.
