Energy in Marion

[humancalculator]

This is barely important but to add a bit more realism to CORE (there already is a lot). The Province of Marion in the U.S. (number 639) should have an increase of energy in 1939 representing the completion of the Claytor Lake Hydroelectric Dam (If I walk to the western side of downtown I can see the dam). This would also include events and completions for other dams across the U.S. Once again this is not major but would increase realism to the game.

By the looks of it Claytor Lake should just barely make the cut, i.e. the 83.000 MHz is just about 1 energy unit (an energy production of 0.39 in the province in-game), and the engine does not allow fractions AFAIK. The upcoming release has events for Boulder/Hoover Dam, Grand Coulee and Bonneville however. The TVA is on the to-do list.

I listed Claytor Dam because Marion has 27 (or was it 47) energy points in it.

EDIT: Both numbers were wrong-it was really 83

Don't get me wrong - it's large enough to be a candidate to include, as it actually makes the cut... It's just that other dams have more of a priority, and right now are a work-in-progress. And personally I hadn't heard of Claytor Dam myself before, so for that alone I'm grateful.
