Usage in base

Mandatory properties

This prototype inherits all the properties from Prototype/EntityWithOwner.

energy_source

Type: EnergySource
The capacity of the energy source buffer specifies the capacity of the accumulator. Must be an electric energy source.

picture

Type: Sprite

charge_cooldown

Type: uint16
Count of ticks to preserve the animation even when the charging ends. Used to prevent rapid blinking of the accumulator with unstable need to use it.

discharge_cooldown

Type: uint16
How long (in ticks) the animation will last after discharge has been initialized.

Optional properties

charge_animation

Type: Animation

charge_light

Type: LightDefinition
Note that some kind of charge_animation must also be defined for the light to appear.

discharge_animation

Type: Animation

discharge_light

Type: LightDefinition
Note that some kind of discharge_animation must also be defined for the light to appear.

circuit_wire_connection_point

Type: WireConnectionPoint
Defines how wires visually connect to this accumulator.

circuit_wire_max_distance

Type: double
Default: 0
The maximum circuit wire distance for this entity.

draw_copper_wires

Type: bool
Default: true

draw_circuit_wires

Type: bool
Default: true

circuit_connector_sprites

Type: CircuitConnectorSprites
The pictures displayed for circuit connections to this accumulator.

default_output_signal

Type: SignalIDConnector
The name of the signal that is the default for when an accumulator is connected to the circuit network.
