Breakdown to flick error
Supes here, I recently updated Powerlogic, and although I haven't made any code or def changes to my fuses, I'd thought I'd check that this mod still works.

what I noticed was that the breakdown-to-flick option is broken, but I think that's because no flicker comp has been added to the fuses (I saw the commented out operation in the ShortCircuit_Patches.xml, which might have broken this).

Just thought you should know :)

Thanks for your interest and notice, Supes.
I vaguely remember the flick thing. I commented that patch out because i was able to flick'em without the comp, not sure how.
If you say so, maybe it was a double patch somewhere i didn't realize. I will check it whenever possible.

And, yes. It was the commented out patch. I'll uncomment it, and with some little checkup I'm going to push an update.

It's certainly possible, though you cant use RimWorld.FlickUtility for that. If you want to do it without patching in a flickable, then you'd have to designate directly while skipping the flickable comp stuff.

you'd need to remove this code (no flickable patched means it's trying to access a property (SwitchIsOn) on a null)
CompFlickable comp2 = b.GetComp<CompFlickable>(); if (!comp.BrokenDown && comp2.SwitchIsOn && flag3) { comp2.DoFlick(); FlickUtility.UpdateFlickDesignation(b); PatchPowerLogic.fused = true; __result = true; return false; }

and replace it with this code
Designation designation = b.Map.designationManager.DesignationOn(b, DesignationDefOf.Flick); if (designation == null) { b.Map.designationManager.AddDesignation(new Designation(b, DesignationDefOf.Flick)); PatchedPowerLogic.fused = true; __result = true; return false; }

I wasn't looking but, that's a pretty bypass and it works as it is. I might use it right away.
Btw, the flag3 is "luck". It calculates the fuse activating chance.

I didn't try any bypass like this when it worked back then, I just forgot to add the patch to the file but it was still working. Still baffles me what was it :)

Thanks again Supes.
