Hello again, it's Thumper the Rabid Rabbit.
In this episode of my Rust electricity 101
Component Guide, we're going to cover: The
Splitter!
The Splitter is a fairly basic piece of equipment
that you will use.
It's not a default blueprint on most servers
and typically it costs around 10 High Quality
Metal to craft.
You can find it in Crates and sunken chests
and it has one function: Splitting Power!
When you take power and put it into the top
which is where the input is, you may then
split power out of any of the three power
outputs along the bottom labelled:Power Out
1, 2 and 3.
This fairly large component splits power evenly
among the outputs that are in use.
For example, if I use only one output all
of the power will go through that output.
If I use two outputs the power will be split
evenly between the two outputs that are in
use.
However if you use all three outputs, the
power that you're putting in is then split
evenly three ways among all three of the outputs.
The splitter itself consumes one unit of power
most of the components in Rust consume one
unit of power themselves so be sure you budget
for the power that the splitter consumes as
well as the different outputs that it'll provide
based on the number of outputs that you have
in use at any one time.
Again a basic but large component typically
costing 10 Hi qual metal has a single input
and three outputs and it will divide your
input power evenly among the number of outputs
that are in use at any one time.
