Space Data Center 2.0

Description
New version of my previous mod : Space Data Center.

Nothing much changed. Just removed the timer functionality since it isn't needed anymore in Vanilla.

It's a server rack like those in datacenters. It act as a Programmable Block

Features
3 programmable blocks made with custom models and textures
- A large server rack (Can't be accessed directly)
- A small server rack (Can't be accessed directly)
- A large server rack with a terminal

Old Scripts
If you have an old script that is not using the new feature to run itself, you can easily modify them.

Each scripts have an entry point called Program which looks like this.
public Program() { // Custom script code is here }

To make the script update itself every 10 game ticks you add the following line.
public Program() { Runtime.UpdateFrequency = UpdateFrequency.Update10; // Custom script code is here }

You can also use Update1 for every 1 tick and Update100 for every 100 ticks.

In development
Some features I'm working on and will be adding in the futur
- Replacing the current screen and keyboard by the lcd panels like the current Programmable Block.
- Adding server running background sound.
- Add a blinking animation to the server's lights

Suggestions/Comments
Feel free to write a comment if you have a suggestion or to report a bug.

It's well done, but not to sure why the large server rack has no terminal on it. Still that's a work around I can live with. Though it would be nice if the LCD on the one with a terminal worked.

Defently going to try this out.. anything to make the PBs look better in my opinion.

Can you make it where you can edit the contents of the screen?

How hard would it be to program this to allow two or more scripts to run simultaneously in the same data center block? Would that even be possible without modifying the engine?

Nervermind I created a world. set in-game script on. Looked after it again after searching online and it was somehow disabled or I am retarded as fuck and never enabled it.

The server rack with display has no options to edit the code or do something at all.

I see, thank you for the response. Hopefully one day Keen will extend the API to make something like that easier on modders.

@QuintusJ That would be pretty awesome! I actually tried doing that at one point but it's sadly not as easy as it sound because of how the system works. I wasn't able to do it sadly :(
