Power & Water - Increase Range ... ?

[Tim bo]

Is is possible to increase the range of how far the radius of Power and Water facilities reach?

There is a range dropdown when you click on the facility, but I can't see a way to increase it.

I think yo have to research further ranges with the mechanics.

Nope, you get what you get, if you need more range your only option is to place another one over where you need it. The only purpose for that drop down that I can figure is so that you can see the details regarding range. Although they are so sparse I don't see why they just don't show it without a drop down; maybe letting us adjust range is something that existed in beta or is planned for the future.

Pretty much summed it up. From what I have noticed, the range of the power will drop in relation to how long it's been since it has been serviced. If your power outlet function bar is low then the range will be lower. If it's been fully repaired it will have the largest range.

You're correct, CMDR! As a power source degrades, the radius of effect does decrease. Between 100% - around 50%, there is no change, then it will begin to shrink between that and 0%. Good eye!
