A military piece of kit which properly links the Naval Energy Unit to Military-boosted Shields. It gives an improved recharging rate and better energy flow. It can also re-route energy to either the shields or energy banks, although this is automatically overridden if the shields are fully charged or the ships energy levels are low.

Overview

An Energy Grid is an upgrade to the bus linking the Energy banks and the shield generators, allowing enhanced energy transfer rates to recharge the shields if the energy is available.

There are both civilian and Naval versions, requiring an Extra Energy Unit or a Naval Energy Unit and providing even higher recharge rates.

Details

Energy Grid

This is a civilian version built with standard components. It can only handle limited amounts of recharge energy, but is compatible with the EEU, routing up to 50% of the available recharge energy to the shields, and with the NEU, when it's capable of routing up to 30% of available recharge energy to the shields (which is still 20% higher than what would be transferred had the ship only an EEU alone).

Naval Energy Grid

The military version meant for use with the Naval Energy Unit - it works with the EEU, but with the NEU it can accomplish its full potential. It's price is steep, but it can handle the huge amount of available recharge energy provided by the Naval Energy Unit: it will route up to 90% of the available energy recharge to the shields.

Requirements

This OXP requires at least version 1.82 of Oolite.
