Reviewed the code and ran in-game tests, all the parts it needs to work is there, but i see your point vanilla coolers are little more effective but my vents work better then the vanilla ones. Maybe resources are programmed to have different thermal conductivity. But i seen the code far resources and can't see stats like that. I have my own mods downloaded and been playing with my Better Vents mod for a day and its now effected me.

I'm working on a mod that will be called OP broken Things, not knowing i was doing at the time it ended up too similar to the glittertech mod so im having to redo my mod XD

For what it does, this mod looks like it works pretty well, but doesn't seem to like vanilla coolers already on a settlement and using the build copy button. Those are still "coolers" while the buildable versions are now "steel coolers".

That shouldn't be the case. I only added code too the vanilla vents/coolers to allow you to make them out of gold plasteel eg.
But thanks for letting me know i will start testing the mod tomorrow (UK Time). I could have deleted code that it needs without knowing.

No vanilla vents/coolers are replaced by my modded ones. go into dev mode and delete the vanilla ones. That will fix the problem, dont use/copy vanilla ones or it can bug out.

The vents are there, but they do not seem to equalize temperature between rooms. At least when I test it, vanilla vents don't equalize temperature very well, and it looks like this mod's vents are better than walls, but less effective than vanilla vents.

UPDATE - Looks like it does work right, just takes a while to equalize temps, it's just affected by room size / normal temp difference.

Also, regular coolers are still there in the game, but are replaced by steel coolers, with options for plasteel etc coolers which is nice. Problem is, hitting copy building on the vanilla cooler and the UI hud goes away, escape key doesn't work, none of the keys work and the game is stuck so it has to be shut down and restarted.
