Power
Most JASM blocks run on FE.
Where it comes from
- Combustion Generators burn fuel. They are the simple answer.
- Other mods, through the Power Interface. JASM blocks never take power straight from another mod.
- Batteries store it for later, and charge items in their charging slot.
How it travels
- A generator pushes power into every block it touches.
- Data Cables carry it through a network, as fast as it comes in.
- A machine that touches a generator needs no cable.
- Machines don't pass power on to each other. Each one needs a cable, a generator or a Power Interface touching it.
