Power generators, from the fusion reactor to the humble PACMAN, try to power the entire grid at once when they should prioritize powering the area they’re in first. This would allow enterprising engineers to use PACMANs and SUPERPACMANs as backup generators to power comms and/or the LZ in case the colony’s power generators are captured (until they run out of phoron and uranium).

I was pretty determined to force this when I was playing ComTech even after being told it was negligible at best. After playing a bunch of OT it sounds like a nice reason to stop putting the “extra” phoron to better use (or use at all)
Probably be nicer to set up at round start than to be told to walk to comms from the front to change the power cell (I do really like the role though)

Yes please.
I’ve had the same conversation 20 times where I have to explain why the pacman doesn’t seem to be doing anything(it’s totally doing something, it’s just doing it at 1/50 the rate you think it is).
