Transmitter Station
A relay that passes power on from the power plant. This is how you build a grid into distant districts.
Grid technician
Power plants only supply their direct surroundings. The Transmitter Station is a lattice mast that carries the power further. The first station must stand within a power plant's range, every further one at most 50 tiles from the previous one. Each station supplies everything within 30 tiles, and research in the research lab adds 6 more tiles.
Good to know
- A station does not generate power. It only passes on what the plant has left, and only after the consumers right next to the plant are supplied.
- It needs no road, no power of its own and has no running costs.
- You can build as many stations as you like. Relocating costs only 200 $, which helps you use the range well.
- Fusion, Thermal and Red Fusion plants can feed stations.
