Mech Overhaul

Description
This mod overhauls how the energy system works on mechs, now there is two separate bars for health and energy, mechs run on fuel that you can replenish anywhere, mech flight anywhere and more, check mod page for more information: https://community.playstarbound.com/resources/mech-overhaul.5654/

This mod is already included on Frackin' Universe, DO NOT install this if you have FU, as it will probably break your game.

WARNING, PLEASE READ:
Sometimes a bug happens on the tutorial mech where the mech spawns without fuel. That seems to happen when your character was created before installing the mod. It's a known bug, just quit the mission and try again and it should work normally.

NOTES:
FOR YOU TO BE ABLE TO ADD FUEL ON YOUR MECH YOU NEED THE QUICKBAR OR QUICKBARMINI MODs LOCATED HERE:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1088459034

OR HERE:
https://github.com/Silverfeelin/Starbound-Quickbar-Mini/releases/download/alpha-v0.20/QuickbarMini.pak

Copy the downloaded file to your mods folder, if you don't know where it is, go to tour steam library, right click on Starbound, go to properties, local files, click on browse local files and you should see your mods folder.

THANKS TO BigAssHunter AND lophatkao FOR THE FREE TO USE MECH CODE AND TO zetaPRIME AND Silverfeelin FOR THE QUICKBARMINI MOD.

Shoot my mech got completely destroyed!
How do I repair my mech now?

I do hope this works with Stardust Lite instead of Quickbar Mini. I don't know if you can change the "required items", but that would be nice if you can change it from the now deprecated quickbar mod.

There's a new patch for the Mech Overhaul and Cosmetic Slots for Mechs by AnomNom :D
(but didn't Xav say that they made a patch for this around 2019? ^^;;)

@Skele_HD Use auto chips. Clicking while having them selected in the hotbar will heal the mech by 5% each auto chip. The mod doesn't tell you, but I found the answer in the bug reporting thread. Anyways, the description of the autochips tells you that it heals the mech.

How does one repair a mech once its broken?
I got mine destroyed and now every time I deploy in I simply explode when arriving.

Anyone got the answer to that?

So with this mod how does energy compare to defence? Does energy on a mech still contribute to its health?

This mod is incompatible with "fuelcatalyst" whatever that is, I have like 700 mods not going to do too much of a deep dive to figure it out.

Через цей мод в мене не запускалась гра, я не знаю чому, просто вилітала після завантаження.
Because of this mod, the game didn't start for me, I don't know why, it just crashed after loading.

Would apretiate add-on that allows you to craft/distill "Biofuel" [1x fuel multiplier] for mechs from stuff like wood, plant fibre, etc. OR even better from "Rotten water" (Extended Story modpack) in e.g. 5-20:1 ratio.

Ok, it is working, but It's better to use stardust core lib or core mini instead of quickbar mini.
