adding a new unit that would route energy ...

[genblood]

Is it possible to have a unit what would give or make sure that
building or defense structures get extra energy or a constant
flow of it? Basically I unit like this would make sure energy for
that unit would get the energy first then other structures would
get the rest.

A structruct that would be built near the building that
would route extra power or a constant flow of power.

Err..... what? The only way I can make sense of this is like Earth's Energy Transmitters, but Spring doesn't work that way..... so what are you suggesting here?

Power lines and metal pipes would be an equally interesting, but even less feasible idea.

Ah.....

In that case, I recomment MAX Mechanized Assault & Exploration. Spring just isn't suited for this kind of gameplay.

What I'm trying to say is. THis unit would make sure the defenses or
building structures would get a constant flow of energy. Say you have
a big chuck of your base nuked or damage. The energy resources dry
up quick. A unit like this would make sure your primary defences would
get the energy and others would get the left overs.

It's just a idea ... I would like to see something like this added to a mod.

Huh?.....now you're confusing me. Spring energy is stored centrally, no connection is needed. I really have no idea what you're suggesting here, tbh.

He means prioritising defence energy usage over anything else, except he's suggesting a storage which only defences can use.

Ah. Well..... it may be interesting for mods, but I don't think that it'll be used a lot. Perhaps in NB or a variant thereof, or some other mod which tries to focus more on mobile units instead of def sprawl.
