| The total base PWR of all Consoles in a facility is always 10, except when using [[:modes:custom]] campaign settings to change the number of Consoles. This means that the average base PWR is lower when the facility has more Consoles. Consoles also have higher base PWR when they are further away from the [[:facility#starting room]] and the [[:facility#exit room]]; this information can be used to [[:strategy:finding_the_exit|estimate the location]] of the exit room. | The total base PWR of all Consoles in a facility is always 10, except when using [[:modes:custom]] campaign settings to change the number of Consoles.
