How to Set Up Grid Power and Use the Resonator
The Grid Power (GP) system provides wireless energy across your world without the need to run cables between blocks. You will need a steady supply of GP to craft advanced tech ingredients, run upgrades, and maintain flight.
Generating Wireless Grid Power
To start adding GP to your personal network, craft and place GP-producing mills or panels anywhere in your base. You can choose from several options depending on your available resources:
Manual Mill: Provides basic on-demand GP when interacted with.- Solar Panels and Lunar Panels: Passively generate GP depending on the time of day.
- Water Mills and Lava Mills: Produce passive GP when placed alongside their respective liquids.
Because Grid Power is completely wireless, your machines and rings will automatically draw from the total pool generated by your placed mills and panels. If you walk far away from your base, place a
Chunk Loading Ward near your GP setup so the area stays active and continues generating power without your presence.
Transforming Items with the
Resonator
Once your GP network is active, you can use the Resonator to convert basic materials into specialized crafting ingredients (such as
Stoneburnt).
1. Craft a Resonator and place it down in your workshop.
2. Open the Resonator's interface and insert the basic material you want to transform.
3. As long as your panels and mills are producing enough available Grid Power, the Resonator will automatically process the item.
4. To speed up slow processing times, craft and insert up to three tiers of Speed Upgrades.
