they should make factorio but more annoying (power lines have a max current carrying capacity and resistive losses, you can create transformer substations for long-distance 250kV power lines, motors create reactive power)

@artemist Also bootstrapping is harder, like getting stuck at first with a small generator salvaged from your ship that's intended for survival.

@artemist immersive engineering from Minecraft but in factorio

@artemist the Power Overload mod sorta does this. each tier of pole has a load limit and you need to use transformers to separate your networks out.

@artemist that would be so good

@whitequark it would be terrible for performance, so we need to think of more things that would make it worse (simulate buggy solar inverter firmware maybe?)

@artemist run the ASICs with CXXRTL

I would port it to GPUs for massively parallel simulations in order to make this a reality
