About The Pull Request

Adds the Power Exporter as an exclusive CE machine.

Reworked idea from this PR: tgstation/tgstation#24564

This single machine when build on the powernet acts almost like a power sink, but only when the powernet has a surplus amount of energy to draw from. The excess power is lost, but in return the engineering department gains roughly 70% of the Kilowatts sent as Engi dept credits, with 30% sent straight to the cargo budget. Starts off with a -0.75% penalty with tier 1 parts, up to the full 100% payout with tier 4 parts.

The only circuitboard for this machine available can be found within the CE's personal locker.

Why It's Good For The Game

Finally! An actual reason for the engineers to powermax the SM, set up solars, or learn that other atmos power machine i can't even name because nobody fucking touches the damn thing.

Changelog

🆑
add: Added the Power Exporter! A single exclusive machine available to the Chief Engineer to provide credit income to both Cargo and the Engineering department.

Yet another port from the TG+ Project, hope yall enjoy it. I think this is the final one i was scheduled. :)

I used the inital PR code with no bug fixes. whoopsies
Better usability, more information provided upon examination.
Lowered from 25% to 10% of kilowatts turned into credits. The upgrades now provide 20%, 30% and 40% at tier 4 respectively. Pepsiman said it provides too many credits.

I couldn't figure out how to use which means it needs some sort of documentation. It also couldn't be disassembled, and breaking it caused the circuit to disappear.
