β‘Roach Energy System
Each slot has a generator that produces energy, while each roach has a battery to store it. When putting a roach on charge it starts accumulating the energy from the generators. Generators in slots work altogether and contribute to total energy output for all roaches, meaning that charging 1 roach while having 2 slot generators will be two times faster than with 1 slot.
Energy limit - the battery capacity of the roach, it determines the amount of MTGN rewards in Arcade races. The basic default is 100 Energy.
Energy gain - the generator energy output, it determines the energy production speed, default is 50 per hour.
Charging mechanics
After a race, roaches run out of energy and need to be charged:
Charging costs 50 MTGN
If a player doesn't have enough MTGN, they can earn it by completing Missions, inviting friends, or buying it with TRAX
Players with multiple roaches can choose which one to charge
Each roach slot has a generator that produces 50 energy per hour
A roach needs 100 energy to be fully charged
With one generator, charging takes 2 hours
With two generators, charging takes 1 hour
With three generators, charging takes 40 minutes
Multiple roaches charging simultaneously share the charging speed
Players can instantly complete charging for 2 TRAX
Upgrade Roach Energy
Each roach slot has a generator that produces energy. You can upgrade these generators to increase their energy production rate.
Each upgrade increases the generator's output by 2 energy/hour. Each subsequent upgrade costs 30% more than the previous one.

Battery upgrades
Increase roach energy capacity and compression.
You can upgrade the battery capacity of your roaches to increase their total energy and energy compression.
Each upgrade increases the battery capacity by 5 energy. Each subsequent upgrade costs 60% more than the previous one.

Energy Compression
To ensure that increasing battery capacity doesn't lead to more rounds in a race, the game uses energy compression. At level 1, compression is 20 (100 energy/5 rounds). At higher levels, compression increases, giving players larger rewards for winning rounds. Example: Taking 1st place with 10 participants gives a 6x multiplier. With level 1 compression (20), the reward is 6 Γ 20 = 120 MTGN. With level 6 compression (25), the reward is 6 Γ 25 = 150 MTGN.
