Welding Fuel Generator

Description
A Working Welding Fuel Generator.

This is a machine which once wired up and supplied with CaC2 (Calcium carbide) is capable of refilling your welding fuel tanks.
No more shall the empty tanks leave clutter!
Simply insert your empty tank into the generator, Along with some fuel (Calcium carbide) and watch it fill!


This item must be added and wired to a sub within the submarine editor, or implemented as a dependency to an already created sub.


Large Generator:
-Refills empty welding fuel & Incenium Tanks
-Completely new machine & texture
-5 Inventory slots

Small Generator:
-Refills empty welding fuel tanks
-Completely new machine & texture
-3 Texture variations for working, damaged and broken machine
-3 Inventory slots

Calcium carbide:
-A new compound material for fuel usage in the generator




Bugs / Issues:
I'm currently working on the damaged Sprites for the large generator and will update soon for those.

The CaC2 Fuel keeps burning while both items remain in the generator, even when the tank is full (nothing I can do about this currently. Its the only way ive found to force the generator to require an item for fuel).

There seems to be a bug with this mod that prevents welding fuel from being put into welding tools. It was fine before the 1.0 update so something in the new patch might have messed it up.

Havent Tested it in a while but I dont see why it wouldnt still work.

is this mod still working ?

Eitherway this is still in Beta, to impliment this into the game properly and have it 100% working with no issues, the devs would have to include my github fork into the source code as it requires additions to the core code of the game.

basically this mod is just an attempt to bring something that was requested into the game, with the current functions this is the best it can be.
I will look into changing it more and attempting to use seperate windows for the CaC2 and the tanks, however this is what i was trying to do initially and it wouldnt work. hence why its one window with 2 shelves.
P2/2

@Overmorth yes, this is all known already and in the Bugs / Issues section. nothing can be done about it, the game isnt designed for this therefore its janky as hell to make it work, you just have to watch what youre doing and remove the tank once its full.

also, its a non harvestable resource because its not a natural element within Europa, if it were then it would just react with the water and instantly turn to acetylene.
you do realise you need to create the CaC2 in the fabricator right? what would be the point in making ethanol fabricatable and usable within the generator? you could just use the same argument for it.

as for no explanation, its explained pretty well what you must do and anyone with a brain will figure out you use the fabricator to create the CaC2. CaC2 when combined with water (gathered from the ship passively) creates Acetylene which is the fuel used in the welding tanks.
it also says in game what to do when you hover your cursor over the machine.
P1/2

cac2 spending itself even when tank charged
Overmorth Dec 9, 2020 @ 7:23am 
some slots dont spend cac2 some slots do not charghing tanks.

well-dis is good, but..
there can be done more - methanol for example done from CU CN and C
charger that loaded with bottle of alco or methanol can charge tank -
can be placed ingame like a shelf

nevertheless good mod
