Electricity is a new useable form of energy introduced in version 1.4.
Appearance
Electricity isn't an item that can be carried. The only time it's visible is when it's being conducted along copper wire. At those times, it's shown as small, cyan "packets" moving along the wire.
Generation
There are two sources and one storage method for electricity. A Steam Generator or Solar Panel will each create electricity. A Flywheel will store electricity that comes to it and supply it to connected crafting surfaces that need it.
Use
Electricity will only flow between connected crafting surfaces. This is possible by having them adjacent (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally) or by a continuous series of copper wire between them.
The following crafting surfaces require electricity to function:
These crafting surfaces use the same items to create the same items as their non-electric counterparts (if any), but instead of using fuel directly, they must have a supply of electricity.
Notes
Due to how they interact, using electric crafting surfaces makes more efficient use of fuel. Crafting using electricity takes half the time it would take to craft them otherwise.
