bluespace_tap

A station goal that consumes enormous amounts of power to generate (mostly fluff) rewards

A machine that takes power each tick, generates points based on it and lets you spend those points on rewards. A certain amount of points has to be generated for the station goal to count as completed.

Vars
actual_power_usage	How much power the machine needs per processing tick at the current level.
base_points	Amount of points to give per mining level
desired_level	The machine you WANT the machine to mine at. It will try to match this.
fillers	For faking having a big machine, dummy 'machines' that are hidden inside the large sprite and make certain tiles dense. See new and destroy.
input_level	The level the machine is currently mining at. 0 means off
max_level	Max power input level, I don't expect this to be ever reached
points	Available mining points
power_needs	Correspond to power required for a mining level, first entry for level 1, etc.
product_list	list of possible products
safe_levels	How high the machine can be run before it starts having a chance for dimension breaches.
total_points	The total points earned by this machine so far, for tracking station goal and highscore
Procs
decrease_level	Decreases the desired mining level
get_power_use	Gets the amount of power at a set input level
increase_level	Increases the desired mining level
produce	Produces the product with the desired key and increases product cost accordingly
set_level	Sets the desired mining level

Proc Details

proc
decrease_level
()

Decreases the desired mining level

Decreases the desired mining level, that the machine tries to reach if there is enough power for it. Note that it does NOT decrease the actual mining level directly.

proc
get_power_use
(i_level)

Gets the amount of power at a set input level

Gets the amount of power (in W) a set input level needs. Note that this is not necessarily the current power use.

i_level - The hypothetical input level for which we want to know the power use.

proc
increase_level
()

Increases the desired mining level

Increases the desired mining level, that the machine tries to reach if there is enough power for it. Note that it does NOT increase the actual mining level directly.

proc
produce
(key)

Produces the product with the desired key and increases product cost accordingly

proc
set_level
(t_level)

Sets the desired mining level

Sets the desired mining level, that the machine tries to reach if there is enough power for it. Note that it does NOT change the actual mining level directly. Arguments:

t_level - The level we try to set it at, between 0 and max_level
