Will there be an patch of Industrial Astrofuel Generators to interact with Vanilla Gravship Expanded?

Advanced batteries don't rotate properly on gravships

The description of the Archotech violence generator is kinda vague so I got curious and tested it out. Turns out what it meant by "souls" is human meat fresh off the skeleton (will instantly dessicate fresh human corpses), and each corpse actually powers the generator for 4 hours, despite the mod page saying it burns one soul every hour and the default mod options saying each corpse lasts for 2 hours.

Currently, the generator doesn't show the radius in which it eats corpses. The generator also doesn't eat rotting corpses so try not to kill anyone with tox gas.

does the advanced battery lose power when theres an explosion?

I deconstructed the wall lamp on the wall which interestingly resolved the issue.

When I try to place the industrial chemfuel power generator on the gravship I get told "Space already occupied". I tried removing power lines and piping from Dub's but the message persists. Since the mobile versions of the power generators do work on the gravship, is it correct to assume that this is intentional? I didn't not see any mention of the gravship in the description and I am well aware that this mod was created and released way before Odysse came out, but I am asking just to be sure.

Tidal generator continues to generate power even when the water is frozen.

Testing here it seems that some mod removes the nuclear reactor even from the search menu now and I just have to find which mod is doing this (there are 500 mods :) )

No

Was the nuclear reactor removed? I can't find it in dev mode either

Portable and Industrial version of generators have increased/decreased power production, but for some reason they doesn't have scaling of fuelConsumptionRate. It just have same fuelConsumptionRate of 22 and 4.5 of vanilla wood and chemfuel powered generators. Only recently realized that this was the reason why it felt that Industrial version barely was consuming fuel for the amount of power it produces.

I can provide the rest if needed, but suffice it to say, this was finally fixed (even after uninstalling/reinstalling several NEW mods i had added to the game, including "simply more roofs") by deleting two advanced wind turbines. These turbines had caused me some problems prior, with both breaking at one time, then later just one of them breaking (not providing power when unblocked, claiming to be blocked), but this was the first time it had interfered with the landing process.

Not sure if it was because my gravship was close to the top of the map, or because i moved my grav engine. Really not sure what changed to where my gravship stopped liking the wind turbines it had had for awhile.

Okay. Just now I ran into a problem where I was unable to land my gravship. After confirming the landing location, it would look like the very start of the gravship landing animation, but not play and not land. The ship would sorta generate in Dubs minimap. The start of the exception was as follows (but I only have 1000 characters):

Exception from long event: System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array.

why was the chemfuelpump removed?

Base game problem that has existed since forever

Sometimes the advanced wind turbine says things like blocked by roof or by large thruster even when these things are not in or directly adjacent to the exclusion area. Deleting and replacing it using godmode in the exact same spot fixes this, but I am not sure what causes the bug.

Dunno. Someone might have made a translation. We only do English

What languages ​​does it support?

@Slimez oh... I thought it was "solar wind" working its magic...
That wasnt intentional?

The vanilla wind turbine has this useful 'cut trees' feature. (I'm unsure of the exact terminology as I'm not currently in the game. I just stumbled upon this discussion as the mod was recently updated.)

The advanced version doesn't have this feature, though.
Do you have any plans to add it?
As I wrote, it's *very* useful! :)

Yes, low priority though

Just a heads up @DawnsGlow there is a (presumed) bug where the advanced wind turbine functions even in orbit. Not sure if that meets your definition of space efficient.

My guess is that during the update from 1.5 to 1.6, new code was added to the base game wind turbine to check if it is in orbit. Adding this check to the modded turbine should be a quick fix (if you want to fix it, that is. Its kinda funny)

Fair enough

@Azylacus: I wasn't talking to you. I removed all comments in that thread of conversation

This is not a soapbox. If you want to discuss how terrible I am, please do it elsewhere. I have more important things going on

Anyway to protect against the Archotech Violence Generator?

The industrial/portable generators don't seem to have the "no fuel" icon when it's out of fuel.

@Sarg Bjornson : Do you plan to add space efficient options for gravships ? Thanks for the mod !

oh wait I forgot what I came here to ask, can you add an eject fuel option to the reactor? or maybe some kind of emergency sequence like an actual reactor would have but requires a lot of time to shut down and then can't be restarted for a long time or something. I just didn't read the description and I without thinking about it loaded it fully and now I'm trying to stop my county from going full Chernobyl lol

has someone told this guy he can just not use the mod lmfao. anyway I appreciate you this mod is great <3 The vanilla power options are incredibly lacking for actually powering your grav ship especially once you get late game. Also the nuclear reactor is balanced because that's how nuclear reactors work they make a ♥♥♥♥ ton of power that's the whole point. you guys want a fission reactor to make a similar amount of power to two solar panels?

Right! Have a good day

Just seems like you don't really have any interest in vanilla design principles. I think you should remove the "Vanilla Expanded" part of the title

Yep, I don't consider the other two relevant. any way, use mod options, I added them for such cases

Sarg, 1/2 of one of those three points was about Gravships.

These were never intended for Gravships

1. Solar generation is quite literally energy/area, from the sun.
2. They just released what is essentially "The limited space DLC" for Rimworld. Additionally, space literally is limited in Rimworld and walling/defending more space literally does cost more resources
3. Resources are limited, and you never have just one solar generator, so why would the player ever spend 40 plasteel and **3 advanced components** on solar generators that take up more space to accomplish the same thing?

An important correction, however, is that although it's true that adv solar panels produce 104 W/tile (2600/5x5), vanilla solar panels produce 108 W/tile (1700/4x4, not 1700/3x3). It doesn't really change the question though

No, again, why would you? Space is not a limited resource in RimWorld

..why wouldn't you calculate power per cell???????

Why are you calculating power per cell?

the advanced solar panel makes no sense to build. It produces 104 W/cell, while the vanilla one produces 188/cell. Does it harness power better in low light or something like that?

I was way overthinking it. 20kW for 1 day = 20kWd, ie *33 batteries*

I realized this 5 minutes before falling asleep yesterday, lmao

@ryan I agree that the nuclear reactor seems a bit unbalanced, but... 10,000 watts for 1 day is not 240,000 watt days, it's 10,000 watt days. 10kWd=240kWh, if you'd like, but it's not 240kWd.

is there an advanced version of the vanilla tox generator?

Oh thank you, I misread the menu and missed that. Still :/

Oh Wd! Yeah, use mod options to tweak it to your liking

2 uranium per day, 20,000W

Nothing, as that isn't what this mod does

240,000Wd per 1 uranium is so comically unbalanced it doesn't merit further explanation. What was going through your mind?

Thanks, will review when back from vacation
