BIE's "Idle Hands": Workshop Supply and Power

"Idle hands are the Devil's workshop."

Got a workshop planet where you test out new factory ideas?  This should come in handy: a polar power supply and item supply, with breakout power and build station so you don't have to trek all over your workshop planet to supply power or get fresh items.

FEATURES

Tri-Mode Power Supply:  It can use antimatter rods, deuteron rods, or exchangers and batteries to supply power.  Each type alone supplies approximately 1GW, and 3GW together.  More than enough for most prototyping needs.

Battery Blackbox:  There's a small battery assembler with four exchangers to charge them up.  If you aren't using exchanger power in your empire, this'll supply enough to keep the Build Station going--just turn off the battery boxes attached to the center ILS.  If you ARE using exchanger power and can supply batteries to the center ILS, turn off the battery boxes attached to the four exchangers so the breakout stations draw from the main supply and not this.

Breakout Power Station:  The single exchanger with "hatboxes" (the logi-bot supply stations) can be copied out and placed in remote areas to supply 45MW power for small projects.  It'll grab batteries from the main supply or the battery blackbox.  You can copy this out multiple times for more power, though you'll need enough battery charging to run them.

Breakout Build Station:  Four exchangers supplied by hatbox, with 20+ hatboxes for various items.  They're pre-configured for the usual items you'd want when prototyping factory builds, but it's easy to change that out--just click the logistics hat and swap out the item, and it'll draw from the main supply  at the pole.  Also includes six wireless towers to charge up your mech when your drones are drawing power building stuff.  I recommend only copying this out once and removing the original when you get set up--that'll cut down on item wastage.

All-Building Supply:  The polar ILS will supply every building type.  They're preconfigured to distribute only to the Breakout Build Station.  Just swap the items in the Build Station around if you need something other than what's there.

Belt Prefabs:  Near the battery blackbox are a bunch of various vertical belts to help you build your factory prototypes, along with a preset assembler with all twelve sorter inputs pre-placed (for attaching said vertical belts) along with a high-rise sprayer and power tower.

So, make crazy things with this tool!
