No machines generate energy. Solar Panels, Nuclear Reactors, and Generators do not generate any energy, regardless of wiring or configuration. Not sure if there is an install file I missed, or installation was incorrect. Other aspects (Mining Laser, Nuke) work fine. Copper, Tin, and other IC2 blocks are easily located.
