Uses
- Allowing Tardises to refuel
Usage
Recharge Multipliers and Maxium Capacity
Artron Capacitors have different types. Each type has a different Recharge Modifier and Maximum Capacity.
Recharge modifiers multiply the amount of Artron Units that will be charged into the Tardis when the Refuel Control is Activated.
E.g. If a capacitor has a Recharge modifier of 0.5 and the Tardis normally recharges 10 AU per second, the Tardis will be able to draw 10 x 0.5 = 15 AU per second.
Maximum Capacity Increases the total number of Artron Units that the Tardis can hold.
Having multiple capacitors will increase the maximum capacity of the Tardis Artron Banks.
Capacitor Type | Recharge Modifier | Maximum Capacity (AU) |
0.5 | 64 | |
Artron Capacitor (Medium) | 1 | 128 |
Artron Capacitor (High) | 1 | 256 |
Artron Capacitor (Leaky) | 0.2 | 32 |
Leaky Capacitors
When a player initially finds a Tardis, it will contain Leaky Artron Capacitors. These are defective Artron Capacitors that have a very slow recharge rate and low maximum capacity.
You cannot obtain these in survival mode.
However, when you miss the "Refuel" flight event during unstabilised flight mode, there is a 2% chance that one of your regular capacitors will turn into a leaky one as a result of your poor piloting.
Refuelling the Tardis
- Craft an Artron Capacitor
- Locate the Tardis Engine
- Open the red "Artron Panel" side of the Tardis Engine
- Place the Artron Capacitor inside the Artron Panel.
- You can place more than one Artron Capacitors. Each one will increase the maximum capacitor and recharge modifier.
- Close the GUI and active the Refuel Control.
