Regen Projector

Regen Projector is a defensive support block that slowly repairs allied buildings within a square area, making it useful for keeping front-line structures, core defenses, and hard-to-reach infrastructure alive under sustained pressure. It requires hydrogen to operate and can be boosted with Phase Fabric to increase its repair speed.

Its coverage extends 12.5 blocks from the edges of the block, or 14 blocks from the exact center. Unlike range values that are treated as circular radii on many other blocks, this one uses a square field. The projector repairs allied buildings in its area only when they are damaged, and it is also disabled by repair suppression effects. In practice, this means it is best used where structures are likely to take repeated chip damage rather than as a constant always-on drain.

A single Regen Projector repairs at a rate of 4.17% per second, with a full repair time of 24 seconds under normal conditions. It consumes 60 power per second and 1 hydrogen per second while actively repairing. If it is not currently repairing anything, it does not consume power or hydrogen. One Phase Fabric booster doubles its repair speed, reducing full repair time to 12 seconds. The boost rate shown for this is 1 item every 8 seconds.

A few practical points stand out:

• Regen Projector fields do not stack with each other. Overlapping several projectors on the same block does not increase the healing rate for that target.
• Because of that, extra coverage is better used for redundancy and wider protection rather than for stacking speed on a single point.
• Place it to cover the core area, important production lines, and key choke-point structures that are difficult to rebuild quickly.
• It is especially valuable when repaired buildings are expected to survive long enough for passive healing to matter.
• Repair suppression effects can shut it down, so it is not a complete answer to every source of building damage.

Overall, Regen Projector is a straightforward but effective maintenance block: it trades steady resource use for reliable area healing, and becomes significantly stronger when supported with Phase Fabric.
