LightsOut

Have you ever been frustrated about the power draw of unused workbenches, or lights on in rooms with no pawns? I know I have. Why can't pawns just turn things off when they aren't using them? Now they can.

• Pawns turn the lights off when they're the last ones leaving a room.
  
• You can choose whether or not pawns shut off specific lights (useful to keep common areas from flickering constantly).
  
• Who sleeps with the lights on? Pawns now turn them off when they sleep.
  
• Workbenches enter standby when not in use, drawing no (or less) power until a pawn starts using them again.
  
• Should support most light mods, and should support most mod workbenches.

You should be able to add or remove this mod whenever you'd like without causing any disruptions to your save.

I developed this mod with performance in mind, so it should have a negligible impact on performance in most cases. However, if you are noticing a performance impact from this mod, reach out to me and we'll work out where I can lean the mod out to help!

• Find the light flicking distracting? You can totally turn that off, and lights will act like vanilla again without affecting the workbenches.
  
• Are your pawns scared of the dark? You and your wimpy colonists can keep the lights on while they sleep.
  
• Think workbenches pulling 0W at idle is a little cheat-y? No biggie; you can adjust the percentage of their normal idle power draw that they consume while in standby.
  
• Still think it breaks the game's power economy? I have GOT you. You can adjust the power workbenches draw when in use, too. Dial in the exact balance you want while still enjoying the luxury of not paying for it when you aren't using it.
  
• Do you feel insecure about the size of your log? Boy have I got the solution for you! Now in the mod settings you can enable my most personal debug messages to help inflate your log. If that's not enough, there's even a "spam my console please" option that... well it spams your console as my mod does its thing. Keep these settings off or else.

Here are some of the things that I'm working on for this mod:

• 1.4 support should be in place right now, but it's actively changing, so let me know if something ends up breaking!
  
• Support for autodoors entering standby
