game crashes like 3 minutes later after using the modded grinder

thank you very much i love this mod

Hello OGxSnakexEyez

It should not come into conflict with weaponcore and the mods dependent on it.

I did not test with all of the weaponcore mods because I normally do not use weaponcore. but I did play a few times with NorthWind Weapons (that is weaponcore dependent) and never had problems with it.

will this mod clash with weapon core and its vast collection of supported mods do you know?

Hello REV4666,

I had assumed that and actually fully agree with you. I wouldn't change it at all except for scenarios we play like 'Escape from Mars' where we don't normally find platinum or thruster components. Thank you for the permission to publish a custom version for our games. I will let you know if I do post one and it will be linked back to this one. :)

Thank you for your help and for making this great mod in the first place!
Tiger

Hello Tiger, I am glad you enjoy this mod.

The reason I put the Thruster component in the large welders is to make them more endgame kind of stuff and you need to find Platinum, loot NPC or buy it from NPC traders.

If you are not convinced and still want to make the changes here is how:

The folder for the mod will be in your steamApps workshop content:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\"your SteamID number"\2391575909

And the file that has the parts is in the data folder it's named CubeBlocks_Tools.sbc

you won't be able to change it there
you will need to copy that whole 2391575909 folder to your %AppData%\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Mods\ folder, change the name to something else and make the modifications you want there

Unfortunately, when you use the mods in the roaming folder you won't be able to play in a multiplayer game so you will need to publish it.

If you do publish it, please refer to this mod as the original mod in the description of your mod.

Hello and thank you for this fabulous mod!

Really wish that these tools were vanilla. They are SO much better! My friends and I use this mod all of the time. For the life of me I don't understand why Keen doesn't include tiered blocks of some sort to reduce the number of PCU heavy blocks needed to accomplish something with tools or production equipment. It would help with a feel of progression too.

My friends and I have been talking about doing a few scenario play throughs on planets and it occurred to me that the welders require thruster components which can't be made on planets. I was looking for a config file or the mod file to change out the components, but I could not find them anywhere.

Where could I look to find the files (if the config file exists at all)? Or is there another way to switch these components that I am not thinking of?

Thanks,
Tiger

Hey, thanks for your Mod.

Can you create a config file?
Where to configure the blocks?
Such as power consumption, weight, range and capacity

Thanks so much for fixing it!

@Unruly Sorry I was away from the game for the last month or so,

That audio file was not supposed to be there. It's a file I made for testing only, i was having a problem that the thrusters sound Often got stuck in a loop and was quite loud. the only way to stop it was to reload the session.

So i made that file to lower that sound to tolerable level when it got stuck and it got published by accident when i made the update for the advanced drill

i removed the file from the mod so everything now should be fine now
Again sorry for the inconvenience

Hi Again. I've done a little fiddling, and the problem seems to go away completely when I make this a local mod & get rid of Audio_shipSounds.sbc entirely. Perhaps one of the tags inside is set to an entirely too low number? I did see one value of .1 in there, I haven't gotten far enough yet to see for myself.

Hi, thanks for your mod[s]!
We had a problem on our server that the sound for thruster blocks disappeared with this mod installed. We have no mods for thrusters, though of course some other seemingly unrelated mod could be involved. When we removed ship tools+, the thruster sounds came back. Happens in both local saves and on the server.

Will do! You rock, thank you! There are several of varying qualities, but your sizes and offsets are way better. :)

@TigersFangs Done: I did think about it many times but was unsure since there is already many mod that add drills. But yea why not

i did some tests on the mod before uploading and i think it's bug free
If anyone find bugs in it let me know

This mod is great! Any chance of doing the same thing to the drill?

@REV4666 And thats why I love this mod. But yeah It appears my server keeps defaulting for awhile to a corrupted version despite me having deleted all traces of it to force a new copy to download. But I think I got it fixed, I only wanted to double check all possible reasonings why it might have weirded out hence why I left that message. Thanks for getting in touch though!

@Verlian it's not that i don"t update the mod, it's when i made it I did my best to keep it as simple as possible : copy the vanilla blocks tweak them to have better performance, tweaks the components list, made a new ID, class, icons for them and it's done

so as long as Keen does not change the way blocks work in general the mod should not break

i just did a recheck on the grinders sections if they had anything different (typo error or anything else) and i did not see anything

the first thing i would check is the files of the mod on the server corrupted? maybe if you can replace them with a fresh copy.

Might be a bug on my server but these tools seems to have bugged out slightly. The material list when building them doesn't seem to update properly so having issues welding them in and gotta double check every little component manually to actually build them. For now it seems just the grinders have this issue. Don't know if you still update these but they have worked flawlessly in my game with friends for ages now. Great mod that adds a little more functionality in a nice upgraded way from the vanilla ones without being to overpowered.
