Wave Plasma

BSP-Core 1.6.2 Wave PlasmaBlock

A placed totem gives off Wave Plasma. Pipe it, and your base powers appear wherever the cable ends.

What plasma does

A placed totem gives off Wave Plasma: 100 mB every tick, up to 6,000 with the ten levels of the Output power. The totem panel shows the figure. With it you can:

Whatever plasma powers works for whoever owns the totem. If your totem is stolen, so is everything it feeds.

How it joins up

The chain, in order:

  1. Plasma Extractor directly under the totem. More can stack below; the flow is split between them.
  2. Plasma Interface touching an open face of an extractor. Cables plug into its outer faces.
  3. Plasma Cable from the interface onward.
  4. A Projector Base at the end of the cable, holding what arrives, with a Projector standing on it.

Extractors

Stack extractors under the totem to split the flow between several interfaces. Each extractor keeps a reserve of 4,000 mB: take the totem away and the runs keep drinking from it for a short while, then stop.

Interfaces

Touching interfaces become one body: the faces between them vanish and the frame runs round the outside. Up to twelve, any shape. A cable on any outer face is fed by the whole group, and each face sends up to 1,000 mB/t, so a 6,000 mB/t totem needs six runs.

An interface touching an extractor that another group already serves is refused: its lit parts turn red and it does nothing.

Seeing the flow

Right-click any interface for its flow view: the group and every cable, valve, repeater, extractor, base and charger it reaches, in 3D, labelled with the mB/t passing. Drag to turn, right-drag to pan, scroll to zoom. Jade shows the same figures block by block.
