I have 6 Crystal Columns built in my throne room, but it seems that they do not count towards the requirement for my Knight Ceremony. It says I need 2 columns and I have 0/2.

Is there a bug? I was using it for defense until 10 minutes ago.

Would it be possible to get a rust dust column for the Rustspark Crisis mod?

The defence columns don't seem to be firing

연구 쪽에 변경이 있었는데, 확인해보심이 좋을 것 같습니다. 미리 공지 못해서 미안합니다.

잘 사용하고 있습니다. 사용 도중 문제가 생겨서 글 남깁니다. 문제는 플레이 중간에 다용도 벽 패드만 사라졌습니다. 정확히는 설치했던 것들은 남아있는데, 건설 할 때는 패드들이 보이지 않습니다. 기둥들은 건설 카테고리에 보이고 설치도 가능하고요. 모드 순서도 바꿔보고 전에 셉파로도 다시 돌려봤는데, 여전히 패드만 건설 카테고리에서 보이지가 않더라고요. 혹시 모드 오류인지, 해결 방법이 있는지 여쭈어 봅니다.

So the column won't support the ideology need for statue thing right? The one with 4 columns?

When fully charged, the defense column has the same threat level as a regular turret, but when empty, it only poses the minimal threat level. In this state, if it spots your pawn, the enemy will stop attacking and rush toward your pawn.

Is there any way to make it so enemies don't attack the defense collumns? It either makes them just delay ranged pawns while they focus the collumns from range, or softlock enemies that can't do damage to them (the scorcher has enough range to not be targeted by the stun pulse column, and it also can't damage it, so it gets "stuck" while I just shoot them to death).

Sorry if this has been asked before, couldn't find an answer online.

Thanks - you're awesome. Any chance of getting a wall pad power switch? My early ships used a lot of switches to balance power usage and they're even uglier than the heaters. Thanks again for the heater fix!
