Mending fabricator power wires doesn't power it

[somepotato]

If you hack a fabricator, when you cut the power wire accidentally and then mend it, it stays off.

I believe you have to mend it, then pulse it with a multitool to jumpstart the thing.

But that doesn't make any sense, pulsing the wire is supposed to kill power for 30 seconds.

[BlackPhoenix]

Isn't that only on doors? I can't test this at the moment, can somebody who is able check this?

[somepotato]

Pulsing the wire won't restore power nor cut it for any amount of time on the fabricators.

[somepotato]

The fact mending restores power on everything with wires, just for consistencies sake should do it on the autolathes/fabs too.

The only way I could get a fab to reset when I tried last was to hack the APC and flip the breakers on and off. Egh.
