Engineering Department Improvements

[LeahTheTech]

I think the issue with engineering is that it only has binary interactions with the rest of the station, either the power is on and nobody cares or the power is off and everyone is mad. Anything that improves gradually as more power is allocated to it would improve this, the only example currently being Oshan's carousel battery, which is great apart from the fact that no-one ever uses the carousel for anything and the only time you notice this feature is when someone jacks an artgen into it and the carousel goes at light speed.
Being able to dump power into things for diminishing returns improvements would give an actual incentive to do something more interesting than a charburn or just relying on solars (which to be fair only works on some maps) and give the wonderful opportunity to yell "divert power to X" star trek style.

I would have a crack at implementing some of this but I am not a good engineer and the power grid code scares me.
