Backup Generators

Backup generators provide a stopgap to prevent black/brownouts when battery reserves are depleted.

NB: 1.0 version bundles Harmony 1.2; 1.1 version bundles Harmony 2

Features
* Generators start producing power when connected reserves are critically low (<= 200 Wd) and stop when reserves exceed 1000 Wd or their power is flicked off/on
* Brand new art! Uranium version! Thanks, Xsile!
* Configurable low and high reserve values in mod settings. Thanks, Herbiems89!

Specifics
* Each generator type should appear in the Power category when the research requirements are fulfilled
* Generators consume some fuel even when idling, although less than power-producing Vanilla fueled generators
