LIVE DIAGNOSTICS
Read the symptom before you upgrade
There is no need to guess at a tier list. Watch one cycle, find the point where flow slows or stops, then test one change.
FAULT 01FLOW
Battery stays empty
Check whether generation is keeping the first half of the loop supplied.
Inspect productionFAULT 02FLOW
Battery fills and waits
The next step may need attention. Test the current selling action before adding output.
Inspect the saleFAULT 03FLOW
Cash barely changes
Watch one complete cycle before blaming a single machine or buying at random.
Trace the full loopFAULT 04MULTIPLAYER
A theft event appears
Stealing Power is confirmed; its exact rules are not public. Use current game feedback.

One full cycle works
Confirm generation, storage, and one city sale.
One constraint is visible
Watch the flow before spending the next Cash.
One variable changes
Test the result, then repeat with better information.
GUIDE STRATEGY
Upgrade the slowest link, not the flashiest object.
Official artwork shows growth as a theme, but its displayed values are promotional—not a guaranteed stat table.
