Kinetic Stress

Here is a small demo set up, showing stress using the Engineer's Goggles

Stress, measured in Stress Units (SU), is a term used to describe the kinetic form of power used in Create.

Machines drain stress from a network, working faster and using an amount of stress that is directly proportional to the angular velocity (measured in RPM) of their input. The amount of stress available can be increased by adding Water Wheels, Windmills, or other Generators to the network.

When a network's total stress impact (stress generation) exceeds its total stress capabilities (stress use), the entire network shuts down, as it becomes Overstressed. Stress can be displayed using a Stressometer or with Engineer's Goggles.

The stress mechanic in its entirety can be disabled in the Config. The amount of stress machines generate or consume can also be adjusted per machine.
