Setting Up Your Generator
Diesel generators provide the power needed to run your 
doppler radar, EAS (Emergency Alert System), and other weather-tracking technology. Place the generator in a location protected from weather but accessible for fuel refilling.
Fueling and Maintenance
Your generator requires diesel fuel to operate. Ensure you have a steady supply before relying on it for critical systems. Position it away from your main base structures to minimize fire risk during operation.
Powering Your Weather Network
Connect your generator to your doppler radar and Emergency Alert System using appropriate cables or power conduits (consult your mod's power system documentation). Once powered, these systems will continuously monitor your world and alert you to dangerous weather.
Reliability Tips
Keep backup fuel stored safely nearby. Test your generator regularly to ensure it starts reliably when storms approach. A failed generator means losing real-time weather warnings during critical moments. Consider multiple generators for redundancy if you're protecting a large base or settlement.
