Platform Hatches

--- Notice: Actually Compatible with 1.3.1 ---

I'm putting this here so it can't get lost in the comments: I've just tested this mod quite a bit with 1.3.1 and found no problems.

I put all the other comments about this issue in this post, because it was starting to take up way too much room here.

Aside from that mess, I have seen at least one report of weather-related lag, which doesn't make a ton of sense but could involve changes to the base game's door.lua and how it uses the rarely-used extra data that these hatches have. If anyone else has lag issues that go away upon removing this, please let me know.

A problem I've often faced when furnishing my ship is hatches: they look good and, when closed, sequester your crew, but they work best with a platform on top of them. Adding a platform above them tends to look bad and interrupt the rest of the design.

I've settled with just using platforms instead of hatches, so as to keep the floorspace for furniture while remaining able to travel. But I was never quite satisfied.

That has led me to this line of hatches with integrated platforms: door when closed, platform when open. They don't even disrupt a table set atop them when they move.

Available at a crafting station near you [specifically the tier 2 workbench where you can build the regular hatches], with the same requirements to build as the standard hatches they're based on.


If you're using Recolored Ship Objects, grab the patch mod to make the new hatches match that colorscheme.

I also made sure to look at Wire I/O Node Position Fixer while making this, my new hatches use the same coordinates that that mod fixes the original hatches to use.


NOTE: If you place mod doors/hatches (from any mod), remove the mod, and load the game, the doors/hatches will be gone but their collision will still be there. So, the best way to unsubscribe is to remove the items beforehand. If you end up in trouble because of this, use Ghost Hatch Remover. CAREFULLY.

--- UPDATE 2.0 ---

Adds the other seven vanilla hatches (not trap doors... yet), support for Automatic Doors, and a mini crafting station you can hang on your wall that lets you add or remove platforms from existing hatches: the Hatch Hammer, available at an Engineer's Table near you

On top of that, you can now pay for blueprints for the vanilla racial hatches and doors, especially useful for those modded races I haven't gotten to yet... wait, that's currently all of them. These are also available at the hatch hammer, mainly because I couldn't think of a better place to put them and didn't want to give them their own crafting station also. A complete racial set costs 1000 pixels.

I've also enabled pixel printing for the vanilla manhole doors, since there isn't any way to craft/print them presently. You still need to scan them first, of course.

--- 2.0.1 ---

I added the wooden hatch-platform recipe to your starting list so you can make that right away before you have access to any of the fancier hatches. I'd like to let you learn to construct platform versions of special hatches but when the original recipe is a loot item I don't know a good way to teach you the new recipe without bypassing the loot requirement...
