LukeH's Transport System

Description
Features Transport Hub building...the first Martian fully automated long distance resource transportation system over land.

Is a Drone Hub and Depot at the same time. It's cheaper then the Drone Hub and needs Machine Parts instead of Electronics to be built but requires the same tech.
Drones from "normal" Drone Hubs will move resources from/to the local Transport Hub like they do to any Universal Depot.
Drones assigned to Transport Hubs only pick up and bring resources from other Transport Hubs, from any distance.
The resources to be transported should be explicitly enabled from the resources list in Hub's infopanel (see screenshot).

With Below & Beyond DLC drones from Transport Hubs are able to use the Elevators to transport resources between surface and underground.
The pathfinding for using the elevator is not well elaborated but I will work on it, for best results make sure you have some hubs close to the elevator.

The Transport hub uses the alternate entity for Drone Hub from Colony Design Set DLC, so that one is mandatory.

Compatible with all the resources from my New Resources Mod (not updated yet for Picard).

Check my answers here, probably your situation is similar

Cool. I just wanted to bring this to your and other players attention as that had just come out and I didn't know if you had a chance to check it out yet.
Thanks for what you do, now I just need to find out why the stations aren't balancing their storage like they are supposed to.

I think the plan will be to leave this mod for the non ccp version and release another for the CCP relaying on it's code
lukeh_ro  [author] Apr 29, 2022 @ 9:29pm 
Yes unfortunately. There's some functionally overlap and they are incomparable at the moment. Sorry, missed to notice that since the CCP changed since I last checked and I missed to recheck

Looks to be causing issues with the train stations in the new dlc.

*** IMPORTANT please read ***
The hubs were updated with what I call "Dynamic Storage Depot" which is also available as a stand alone depot. It's a depot holding every resource, including Seeds and Precious Minerals, and has a total amount of space instead of some space reserved for each resource, in other words if there's only one resource available around such depot it can be fully filled with that one instead of remaining with free space reserved for other resources. If you want to reserve some space for other resources you can use the Desired Amount slider yet the stored quantity for such resource may go over that set amount for resources not on other depots, ie. surface resources, refunds from demolition.
With the new version you set what resource you want a Transport Hub to bring from the button/icon on the right of the resource row, see screenshot.
Unfortunately, old Transport Hubs you already built won't function anymore and you have to demolish and rebuild them.

I updated the mod to include Exotic Minerals to the transported resources.

The conclusion for the CTDs reported by BLAde is that they are caused by a conflict with the mod "Drone Load Balancing". I'm not pointing fingers, mod conflicts are happening in every moddable game and there's not much I can do on my side.
