Transport and Storage
Aura Nodes both transport and store Aura. If another Aura Node is around, the first Aura Node will balance it's energy with the other one, creating a network. You can determine the amount of aura a node has by hovering over it; when that happens, a small window will show the values, as shown below.



Aura naturally moves down; if you put an Aura Node under another Aura Node, all the aura in the network will move the lower node.

Production
Aura is produced with Aura Crystals. Right clicking (or tossing) an Aura Node with an Aura Crystal will consume it, and that Aura Node will gain 1000 colored aura, depending on the color of the Aura Crystal. For example, if a Green Aura Crystal is used, the Aura Node will gain 1000 Green Aura.

Usage
Aura is used to make Power. Power is created when Aura is pushed upwards, using a pump. Pumps require a source of fuel.

Colors
Aura comes in different colors. Different colors might have different properties.
 * White Aura is the most standard kind of aura.
 * Black Aura cannot be pumped upwards, or it cannot produce power when flowing downwards. Unlike most Aura, it can created and destroyed using an Aura Manipulator.
 * Blue Aura has a massive 50x ascent boost. However, this only occurs when it is raining. Otherwise, the aura will be half as efficient as the white aura.
 * Green Aura takes double the power to pump during the day, but a quarter of the power to pump during night.
