XOR Switch

electric.xorswitch

An exclusive-or logic gate that allows electrical passthrough if ONLY ONE input receives power, passthrough amount is whichever single input is active. If BOTH inputs receive power, passthrough will be zero.

Crafting one takes 100× Metal Fragments at a Workbench Lvl 1. A recycler breaks one down into Metal Fragments.

Metal Fragments×60

Radtown recyclers (found in monuments) give more than the safe-zone recyclers at Outpost and Bandit Camp. A percentage next to a yield is the chance of receiving it.
