It has things like cyclones and lightning that can knock out parts of your network. When you have a grid with a few paths between your generator and your load/substation, your power is split between the paths. If you lose a path, the others take on the stress (thermals etc) and can overload. That&#39;s a common daisy chain issue in the game (although a bit more complicated in real grids). 2025-03-10T18:19:01Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsr8jqc3jwsjge82t4vq2953636x2fjnf6zyfch7rxaqdtl7v565kqzypd2kdhwwzndhw93fhdtdxg9c2uhfrfkxn3naxp3drs39q32dmlw790x0hp Hello Mastodon! I&#39;m a power engineer who is trying out solo game development and on the way to release Power Network Tycoon - a game where you build and manage your own electrical grid with real physics simulation.<br/><br/>If you&#39;ve ever wondered how power systems actually work (or why they fail), this might be your jam. I built it to be technically accurate while still being fun. To say it&#39;s been a challenge is an understatement...<br/><br/>#GameDev #IndieGame #Simulation #Gaming #Energy<br/><br/><video controls width="100%" class="max-h-[90vh] bg-neutral-300 dark:bg-zinc-700"><source src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/114/139/241/300/891/803/original/452e1158febdb012.mp4"></video> 2025-03-10T17:11:40Z
