This happened again recently, once today and again yesterday.
Yesterday, I hellwired the engine and asked the AI to electrify the doors. This worked well for a while, myself nearly dying from the rogue APCs. Then someone broke into the engine room and cut a bunch of wires, undoing the hotwire. Before I fixed the wires, I multitooled the wires around the engine room, and they had between about 10-35kW flowing through them, likely from the SMESes that I didn't bother to set up.
After I fixed the wires, they started reporting either that previous small amount, or that they were unpowered. I checked the wires coming off of the engine, and despite it generating a few dozen terrawatts, the cables were still unpowered. In my frustration, I pumped hotloop gas into the hookups until I died.
Today, after half a round of blowing myself up with my own mousetrap mines, I wandered into the engine room and put on a lazy furnace burn. The engine spun up to about 150kW, but the SMESes refused to charge themselves.
I probed the wires around the engine room and found that, again, the wires were unpowered, despite the engine being very much online. In my frustration, I loaded myself up with sugar and coffee, then chairflipped into Cassian Major until I died.
