    i have a suggestion on the multiple generator. generators a function called 'unpowered autoactivation' wich means if you conect several generators with each other with this function on, when one goes out the next one in line turns on succesively until it's out of power, i personaly use this option to save gas, rarther than having multiple paralel networks, you connect them so they reactivate whenever another generator goes out

    • @KDaverGraphics
      @KDaverGraphics 4 года назад +3

      this is also very helpful not just for Gas gens. but Tek Gens too. having a back up gas gen to a wind gen and also to power crucial things you need power to. if your tek gen runs out or fails.

    I know I’m a year late but thank you!! I’ve been trying to avoid using electricity in Ark ever since I bought the game but today I just decided that it would be a cool change to start using it so I looked up how to use electricity in Ark and your video popped up. I thought I’d have to watch a few videos to understand it but I was wrong. I feel like I know everything about electricity now after watching this video!! It’s so much easier than I thought it would be!! Now I don’t have to worry about finding the perfect temperature for hatching eggs and now I can use the egg incubator!! I will definitely share this with others I know that play Ark and don’t know how to use electricity!

    *picks up jaw on the floor* Pressure plates... to create automated doors ? Well that opens a whole new world. I never thought of that ! And to be honest I don't use pressure plates or even keypads, but now you've given me food for thought.
    I'm surprised you didn't mention the specificity of tek generators in this video (how they can work without wires or outlets, which is why they're so popular), but I understand it's a midgame tip. It's just that it would have centralized all information on generators in one video.

      You do need advanced rifle bullets(ARB) for turrets, but they're very good. If you hit level 100 you can get the heavy auto turret, which consumes 4 ARB per shot(also shoots rockets) you should use both plants and turrets in mid-end game.

L M A O The struggles I've faced, do you even know? It's... embarrassing to say how long I have been on the beaches safely but cautiously grinding. Constantly dying. Sometimes I wake up at night in a cold sweat, wondering if I'll ever be brave enough to venture north and bleed out on something other than sand. My friend, what you have given me here is hope.

    It's possible to have more than 1 generator connected to the same wire network, which is something you didn't really mention. This allows you to set up the other generator in back up mode, where it will turn on automatically if the wire network has a power shortage. For example if the main generator is destroyed or runs out of gas

      You didn't show what I'm talking about, no, you showed the ability to set up 2 networks that feed the same electric devices. 2 different techniques. The one I refer to is actually harder to pull off because of snap point problems when putting down the back up generator, but worth it. Users of Structures+ shouldn't have that problem because the wire length is standardized by the mod

      If its low then that means your turbines have a low chance of producing power

    Stay on topic. The video is titled how electricity works, not how to keep your turrets powered, use key pads, or how to trap people with pressure plates.
