Leaving the room will empty the power bar, allowing that unit of power to be utilized elsewhere while the system is cooling down. By walking a Zoltan into a room with a system in cooldown, one of the power bars will turn from blue (cooldown) to yellow (Zoltan power). Cloaking, Hacking, Crew Teleporter, and Mind Control systems require a cooldown period after use that locks power into that system. When we look at a star at night the photons have come to us in a fairly straight line so we see the star as a point and the space around the star in comparrison as dark. The Zoltan ability can also be used to "clean" power. Our sky lights up from the sun because the air in ur atmosphere bounces the photons around from all directions before they hit our eyes. The addition of Zoltan-provided power means maximum reactor power can be exceeded. For example, having two Zoltan in the shield system room will ensure that your ship will always have at least one layer of shields active at any time. This is especially useful in reduced-power battles, or in battles against ships with ion weapons, as their energy cannot be blocked by the ion effect.
The Zoltan ability provides a single block of power to the ship system whose corresponding room they are currently standing in (no effect on subsystems). Therefore, once they are impacted by enemy fire enough to deactivate them, Zoltan vessels must rely on conventional shielding systems. These shields are very difficult to breach, however they cannot regenerate during a battle - unless a Shield Overcharger drone is deployed. Although they inhabit their own home systems, Zoltans often appear in Engi Homeworlds and Engi-Controlled Sectors due to their alliance with the Engi.īeing ingenious experts of technology, the Zoltan race pioneered a unique ship-based shielding technology which can be found on nearly every Zoltan vessel. Whilst a deeply officious and obtuse people, they generally favour diplomacy over acts of aggression and are known for being fair and just in their dealings with others. With the majority of their bodies composed of pure, harnessable energy, the Zoltan are ambivalent towards the Galactic Federation. Their innate energy can power ship systems.
