Concrete Tile Blocks

Description
Replacement mod for Concrete Armor Blocks without the "smooth/deforming" variants of each shape.

Basic block takes 6 girders and 25 concrete slabs components. Other blocks use equivalent amount of concrete slabs as light armor uses steel plates and similarly dreasedpercentage of girders.

Concrete Slabs take 40-kg gravel and 1-kg iron ingot to make in the assembler.

TODO:
make sure they're air tight

Right now I'm having trouble keeping most of my mods up to date. I probably won't make time to sit and rethink the durability and cost any time soon. I don't mind someone using the models from my some of mods, including this one. Even to make a similar one with only data changes as you suggest. I think I can point you to which file to change to make the concrete more durable, if you like.

> Would be great to just have the vanilla-shapes and block categories
> Have only large grid blocks, same durability as heavy armor, 4x the weight
> Adjust the gravel-requirement per block so that it fits the grinding post-release
(e.g. 500-1k gravel per block)
> Update the Mod so that the workshop gets a recent post-release date
> Set a good higher quality (reinforced) concrete texture

I apologize. I can't remember why I changed things exactly the way I did. Can't focus well at the moment either.

why is the concrete weaker than light armor? a light armor block has 2,500 integrity, the concrete cube has 1,340!

I like this mod quite a bit. Though i would like, if with the current costs, the concrete blocks would be harder. at least as durable as light (vanilla) armor but as heavy as heavy (vanilla) armor. Or as durable as heavy armor, but quadruple the weight to make it especially for base building a cheaper alternative to light/heavy armor blocks. And maybe combine the block shapes relative to the vanilla blocks in groups. (And having the last updated version past release, might would help to not think the mod is outdated/abandoned) ;)

Hey. you have a beautiful mod "concrete" and thank you so much for making it. all the players on my server are also very grateful to you. a texture error occurred while updating the game. Can you fix it or give me a model I'll find a specialist who will do it. once again, thank you very much.

@Belaaron your point is just wrong. The Cage of the Blocks has nothing to do with the Iron reinforces slaps. Of course they need Iron inside the slaps themself. Otherwise the Slaps will just fall apart, like dry Sand from a Sandcastle.

@seronis My point, is that if the block itself is already going to use iron-based components, why do the slab components themselves ALSO need iron? The girders already reflect the "rebar" reinforcement. The slab components don't need to have iron in them...it's entirely redundant, and makes the blocks far more expensive than they need to be.

@Belaaron, the use of iron is for the actual iron bars that are inside large concrete structures as a reinforcing factor. Its perfectly realistic
