Power Reverts back to 100 on Testgens

Since the rust update the test gens have been reverting back to 100 power after a while.
Once the plugin is reloaded they go back to the modded power for a little while.
but after some time it reverts back to vanilla power

Thanks for the report, I am working on an update to address another bug with power remaining after perm removed for solar panel and wind turbine, so I will look at this too. 

After alot of trial and error i think i corrected the issue.
It turns out the Xperence plugin has a special skill for power level that alters the max output of various things including test gens.
After i disabled the power alterations in the settings my test gens are now staying at what they should be.

Oh, there used to be a conflict with XPerience a while ago but thought it was fixed, maybe they changed something again. I will look into it, but yeah, that used to be an issue if you had electriction skills enabled. Even disabled it used to still alter, but I thought the guy patched

Soo with the config disabling the xperence plugin power there is still a confliction. In order for newly placed test gens to get their power i have to reload the plugin. This is not a major ordeal but is defiantly a issue. Now this issue only started when i purchased the xperence addon. Soo i think the issue you ran in to the past is a feature of the paid version now and not the free.

I found the relevant changelog for XPerience which fixed the issue when server owners aren't using the Electrician skill: https://codefling.com/plugins/xperience?changelog=11097

The bit in particular is this: "Fixed entities being effected when Electrician max level set to 0"

This is my support thread I posted to them about this issue, since they know their plugin maybe they could see easily if they accidentally made changes that reversed the fix from before or if there is another issue? I would recommend raising this with the dev of XPerience and mention that it seems to be happening again and affecting IO entities even with the Electrician skill disabled. https://codefling.com/files/support/7489-electrician-skill-maxlvl-0-but-still-affecting-ioentities/

Maybe the dev can check your config for XP plugin to make sure it looks good too. 

I had a quick look at the XP plugin code and nothing obvious is jumping out at me, so I will also check out my plugin again when I am home in a couple of days to make sure there is no issue my end. Let me know if you get any news too.

Changed Status from Pending to Work in Progress

Sounds good to me ill let you know of any changes. soo far its still requires me to reset the plugin or server for the new power to take effect.

Have you tested without XPerience loaded, does the plugin work as it should in that case? I will be looking into this later tonight after work.

I will load this on my test server that has only a few plugins on it all admin based soo there should be no confliction then ill let you know where we stand. that is as soon as i get home.

Ok i loaded the plugin on my test server with out xperence and it works fine with no issues.
The confliction is  xperence addon there's no doubt any more

Did you try with solar panels and wind turbines. I found it was those two entities that were having issues?

Yes my Solar and wind turbines are having an issue, and restating the plugin does not correct it.
I tested this in both my main server and test server.

Changed Fixed In to Next Version
