Band node
Acquisition
- 200 steel and 4 components.
- Requires Basic Mechtech researched.
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.
