Instruction is a clicker game with a difference, it has a story!! ...even if the the unit is volts which makes no sense, it should be watts right?

Energy measured in volts? Blasphemy! Blasphemy! Blasphemy!

[@dimitar4y]

i mean..... if the amperage/capacity/watthour is "fixed", we're just basically charging up a capacitor, and in that case, volts is correct-

[@jirichladek7713]

​​​​​@@dimitar4yNot really, the stored energy would be proportional to the voltage... (Actually not even that, energy in a capacitor is W=½CV² but whatever...) voltage isn't power or energy. It is kinda like saying how full a bucket is by the depth of the water. You don't have 5 inches of volume (water), just like you don't have 120V of energy. Its just wrong.

[@iloshwdgac9213]

Are you saying that potential energy per unit charge is not a valid unit of energy. Just square it.

[@monad_tcp]

i could be at least electronvolt

[@dimitar4y]

@@monad_tcp maybe volts is valid because you're a gerbil generating static :')

[@gabrielbeck4568]

RCE! volt measures potential difference, not Power! I know you prefer roads, but an engineer should know that ;)

[@RoyCyle]

A real engineer would know that, but civil...

[@badluckpoppy]

Idk, if you're a landscape engineer you don't need to know how electricity works.

[@randomwaffler]

check description

[@Joyful_Traitor]

But he is an architect not an engineer

[@romanatorx3949]

Exactly!

[@oasntet]

Scary how accurate this is; an AI boss would almost certainly believe that volts are a measure of power.

[@notthatbad42]

i'd give you a like, but you're on a nice number

[@GyattGPT]

The twist at the end explains why it doesn't matter what unit they chose. Voltage not making sense ends up making sense.

[@Electroblud]

120 volts (potential difference) is enough ENERGY to POWER an electric stove. Aaaaaah.!The pain! Decide for one of those three ffs 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@aiocafea]

yeah it hurt my brain, but my headcannon is that the programming is random anyway

[@randomwaffler]

what’s even more infuriating is that they run on 230V in most countries like the UK where RCE and I live, and in countries where they use 120V, it’s double phase so it’s 240V effectively anyway!

[@Katsu_ragi]

​@@randomwafflerthat's what I thought at first, but it depends on the stove. Here, we use 120V, and there are some stoves that are made with that in mind. Anyways, they're talking about voltage, which is not energy and it definitely doesn't power anything.

[@Kallum]

Hey at least it's potential energy ;)

[@Erhannis]

Cease your CURRENT RESISTANCE, your pedantry only AMPlifies your unhappiness

[@simonpodliska1072]

if you like clicker games with story, I highly suggest going back to universal paperclips! I can promise you, however far you think you are along in the game, you are only at the beginning...

[@Real_civil_architect]

If your always at the beginning what dies it mean when your at the end do you go back to the beginning?

[@LoPhatKao]

@@Real_civil_architect yes

[@overand]

Also "A Dark Room" - which I think beats even Universal Paperclips, BUT, ends up having pretty complex mecahnics relative to most clicker games.

[@jamesthibodeaux8277]

As an electrical engineer games and data sheets that refer to "volts" as power are so cringy haha. I can't tell you how many times I've had to comb through data sheets looking at power requirements (volts, phases, amps, etc.) and all they list under power is voltage and I'm just sitting there like "I have learned nothing about ensuring this piece of equipment will be properly designed around".... lol

[@pranavghantasala6808]

Maybe it's a boost converter and Matt's just standing in for the switch driver

[@Archonoflogic]

To be fair, that's probably intentional from the company

[@John73John]

Out of curiosity, how far apart would the high-tensions lines need to be to safely carry a billion volts without the air breaking down?

[@mandrakejake]

I'm a mechanical design engineer. I often open electronics datasheets, scroll past 99 pages of nonsense to find a fag packet sketch of its physical dimensions which is usually missing a few key dims... (bloody electrical engineers lol)

[@jirichladek7713]

As a rule of thumb 10-30kv is needed to jump 1cm. So 1 billion volts could jump around 1km. Lightning can actually have houndrets of millions of volts, so that 1km/1GV roughly checks out.​@@John73John

"wait i get paid" and the editor ask the same

[@JosuaKrause]

paperclip factory has a great story line but you didn't play it long enough to really see it

[@dieselbreakfast]

I was hoping to see more of that one...

[@MichaelMoore99]

Yes, please play more of the paperclip game.

[@LexusLFA554]

This game is essentially 3 things: - Like Cookie Clicker - A Tycoon type game - The humour from Please Don't Touch Anything.

day 9 of telling mat that 6+9=15 and 6x9=54 and 15+54=69 which means that 6+9+6x9=69

@@thatgamerkid1755don’t put 6x9 in brackets as it doesn’t change anything

[@mtbrocket]

Just to be pedantic, power generation is measured in kilowatts, megawatts, and gigawatts, not volts. I only point it out as it is so simple to look up that it should be correct. Anyway great video and interesting game. 😊

[@jamesshelton308]

True. In the case of this game, wouldn’t watt-hours be even more accurate?

[@mtbrocket]

@@jamesshelton308 You could, but I think Watts is more appropriate as you’re measuring the amount of power generated, not the rate of generation because that is how the click game is showing the quantity. Since it is a game, they can use kilo-kittens for units as I do. 😃

[@mtbrocket]

I changed my mind, watthours would be better as it IS charging a battery.😊

[@ImpmanPDX]

If you like idle clickers with story you would probably like SPACEPLAN. It's a game about potatoes, idle factories, space exploration, the mysteries of the universe, and possibly inner truths lol,
