  Unless we go full retard over spacebuild survival or something, this is highly unlikely to happen.

  The gyro doesn't, why should E2?
  
  Also even if you do, people will find a way around just to conserve energy, like holo parenting or using the entity gates.
  Especially since these functions are used outside of ships/stations/anything with LS, just because they are so useful.
  
  The idea of E2 using energy just seems silly to me.

  This is pretty much why I never brought the energy requirement back to gyropods and why this suggestion will never be implemented unless a very significant number of people want it. This isn't the first time that this idea has come around, I've thought of implementing it on quite a few occasions, but our community and ideas like this rarely work together unless I make it absolutely impossible to get around(which will probably just piss a bunch of people off).
