Power Consumption and Fire Groups.

I'm playing around in EDShipyard.com and had a question about power consumption.

Given two firegroups set up like this:

If I swap from FG1 to FG2 does the KWS turn on and the FSD interdictor turn off? Or is power still consumed by both modules regardless?

Simple question, but I cannot find the answer.

Power still consumed by both modules regardless.

Yep power is consumed by both modules.

The FSD interdictor isn't an issue. Set it to your lowest priority on the module tab and it will deactivate when you deploy your hardpoints. It is useless outside of supercruise anyway.

The KWS is more tricky. That you'll have to switch on and off manually.

My experience has been power is consumed by both unless you change module priority .I set the fsd interdictor to priority 2 . Never mind to slow .
