I think it would be a good idea to add an extension cord. The game features many electrical devices with plugs. There are enough outlets in the game, xD, but I noticed a pattern: when connecting multiple devices (like 2–3 mining rigs), the generators break down so quickly that it becomes annoying, and you have to switch to the diesel generator. But here's the problem — it only has two sockets. It would be great to have a craftable or purchasable extension cord for various tasks.

You could always use the mod that adds extension cords to the game. I mostly agree with you, though. However, with the rework of how the cords work, I haven't been having much trouble with them anymore, in any way.
