how do you reset the fuse on tripped fuse groups this is something I'm not entirely sure this is what we were talking about before but I forget exactly can you repeat the question, yeah so the question is how do you reset the fuse on tripped fuse groups do they Auto turn on with enough power they they do not Auto turn on oh yeah they don't do that at least you have to manually like trip it like flick it you have to manually flick the switch, and it's it's pretty much the same sort of you know as when the the power you know the fuse that shows up when you break power like it essentially works the same way there so like if you try and flip it and it breaks again then it's going to flip back to the off State immediately, and Jace will confirm this yep in one second it's gonna take me a little bit because I need to build a you need to build something I gotta build whoa did you oh I'm watching Jason's screen right now you're building that whoa whoa can you believe it yeah wow look at this thing oh my God that's so cool man oh if only people could see your screen pretty sure we're on your scene by the way I'm pretty yeah I'm pretty sure people can see it geez I panic every time [ __ ] putting your own blast right here oh no I messed up dude I messed up my build dude I can't believe this I can't believe you've done this although the snitch video glitches out yeah it starts looking for me I have like focuses set my face should be here in the frame and it's it's not there then it's like what's going on the camera flips out okay so if I okay I think I ran a little test and yeah I think you can just remotely turn turn on certain, switches back on and they just turn back on again what was the question what was the question the question was if the fuse breaks for a network, behind the priority power switch, do you have to run back over to that Network and manually pull the fuse and in this small test unless I've messed something up here, I don't think I did it's entirely possible though, in this small test, yeah no it seems like you can just use the priority power switch to turn on to turn certain, Power switches back on yeah because that's the thing because like that network doesn't actually shut down the fuse doesn't blow in the network so you don't have to reset the network, you just need to reset the priority power switch because that's what the priority power switch is yeah, so yeah you could do that remotely from anywhere assuming that it has enough power to restart yeah that aligns with what I thought cool and and if and if it wouldn't have aligned with what I thought then I would have we would have changed it so yeah just change the yeah if I was wrong with my thing here we'll just change the code it's fine yeah all right I think maybe what I said might have been a bit confusing so I'll just say it one more time so the fuse of the entire network doesn't blow the power switch fuse that's right for that yeah that power switch, trips I think someone sits like a circuit breaker so that's what happens so yeah the network the fuses don't blow the network doesn't go down it's just that power switch turns off and then so everything beyond that power switch it doesn't blow it just doesn't get power anymore because the switch turned off right so you just got to turn the switch back on and then it gets power again and then and then that's it and then the other question which was also us that I didn't address directly which is do they self restart they don't self restart you have to you can you have to restart it yourself with a toggle in the fuse sequence menu but you can do that from any power switch yep yeah it's kind of confusing because like you can view them as like they're a fuse but they're not real fuses they kind of are they're more like blockers sort of if that makes more sense but that's kind of what a fuse is but you know what I mean like it's it's it's not the same as when when the circuit breaks yeah normally normally when you're entire when an entire circuit like the fuse blows or that sound plays or whatever right then you have to restart it right but this in this case the switch prevents that from happening yeah so you don't have to restart anything you just need to turn the switch back on yeah yeah I believe there still will be some kind of like audio signifier though when that happens there is and there's also like an on-screen UI thing that says like a certain fuse group has shut down cool it's a breaker not a fuse I guess I guess maybe maybe there's something wrong with our terminology there got a breaker also but a breaker doesn't imply that it automatically switches oh yeah I don't know right I'm pretty sure I mean my limited electronics are electrical engineering knowledge are you saying your your electrical engineering knowledge is well I'm trying to remember because I did too I you had to take because I have like the typical whatever bachelors in in, in, call God damn it I can't remember my own degree, good one civil engineering right and we had to take electric courses electric and engineering so I had to learn that [ __ ] and I don't remember anything probably doesn't help that is probably in another language too I know it wasn't English okay never mind then I gave you one out there buddy you didn't take it no no no I'll [ __ ] sync with this ship I was like good, but yeah there's like I just tripped it again and it said priority switch group eight turned off yeah group turned off judicating capacity so that's a notification that that you get in game so you do get you get it do get told

yeah Breakers is a resettable fuse so long as the breaker has a few is built into their breaker because the breaker can just be also just to be a switch you know what I think is really important ever how many people are here right now I think all of us me snoot and the other 1 396 of you we need to we need to figure out what is the difference in a fuse and a breaker because it's really important for this game I cannot suspend my belief honestly get to the bottom of this that's another one Highway yeah yep there's a beef I had with total yeah maybe you know this oh beef a total yeah total eclipse where, he built a I said it was a bridge and he was like no it's a highway very clearly a highway and I was like oh I don't know where the highway is then how long was this discussion is this a two-hour discussion no no no no no no falling out it was mostly me just annoying him during stream during his stream yeah okay but actually I mean it's a good point though it seems like people are saying that like, I'm bringing this back up again but like, that a fuse would need to be replaced but a break just needs to be reset it could be that like we've got the wrong words here so, maybe it's just some feedback we can pass on to the team yeah I've already said that I wasn't sure but I'm gonna [ __ ] Stand My Ground here and just pretend that I know what I'm talking about all right but regardless regardless and you guys understand how it works okay if we need to change the words we can change the words later but yeah I think you guys are right yeah I think I think he has around as well yeah maybe but I'm still gonna argue I guess I'm gonna rewrite all the books oh [ __ ], there are there are people like that are just like I just like arguing like I don't really care about the being right or wrong debating the details can be fun right yeah it can be fun is it though yeah I think it can be depending on what it is it depends what it is yeah yeah whoa you got really blurry there my dude yeah I know it's I have like really shallow depth of field so like you need to get your, depth of field levels, like I can set at the the box to be bigger but whatever
