Laser

Laser

The Laser is a directional power transmitter that converts MJ in its battery into a beam of laser power, feeding any Assembly Table or Advanced Crafting Table it can see in front of it.

Information

The Laser sees a 6-block cone in the direction it's facing and tracks every laser-target block inside that cone. A Wrench rotates it after placement. If a target needs power, the Laser locks onto it and a visible red beam connects the two. If several targets are in range and all need power, the Laser cycles between them, sharing its throughput round-robin every few ticks. Multiple Lasers can aim at the same machine.

Power

The Laser requires MJ power to operate and accepts it on any side of the block. Assuming it is provided with enough power, it will ramp up in speed, depicted by the different colors of lasers.
