Due to an extreme amount of rude comments, I need to remind the community that we will not take kindly to abuse. Please read the description of this mod carefully before leaving a rude comment. We are not trying to take a swing at Dubs and his Rimefeller, and we are NOT 'copying' or 'stealing' someone's idea - the idea is simply too generic (drilling and refining fuel) to reasonably call it 'copying'. We are simply doing our own spin on it. If you dislike it, leave a thumbs down and move on.

If you still want to leave a comment how "we should stop modding, be ashamed and even kill ourselves", be aware we will remove it and you will be reported.

Vanilla Chemfuel Expanded is a small mod created to showcase what the new Pipe network code is capable of in Vanilla Expanded framework. It adds a simple chain to extract Deepchem from the underground pockets and refine it into Chemfuel. It also adds storage solutions for both Deepchem and standard chemfuel, alongside a few structures including a Refinery and Chemfuel tap.

Player can now connect any refuelable chemfuel-powered structures to the pipe network to make sure everything refuels automatically.

This mod is not trying to dethrone Dubs Rimefeller, or anything like this. Our programmer, Kikohi, developed a pipe network code that’s available in the framework. Any modder can use it to add their own pipe networks into the game, as well as machines that consume the new resources.

Check out the awesome Rimefeller by Dubs by following this LINK

This mod serves as a Vanilla Expanded proof of concept, adding a brand new resource that needs to be found using a deep-mineral scanner and refined. You can now gain huge quantities of chemfuel in late game if you want to create the required refineries and pumpjacks!




The content of this mod can be seen below.

















A: Can I add it mid-playthrough to an existing save?
A: Yes, definitely.

Q: Does this work with Combat Extended?
A: Yes.

Q: How do I find Deepchem?
A: Pockets of deepchem appear when scanning using the ground-penetrating scanner.

Q: Can I use deepchem instead of chemfuel?
A: No, deepchem slurry is way too thick. You need to refine it into chemfuel using refineries.

Q: Does it work with any mod adding oil/refining/pipes?
A: Yes, it does!

Q: Why tho, Rimefeller is super cool!
A: Agreed, but it also adds plastic and stuff I don’t like. On top of that, as I said above, we made our own pipe code that any modder can use! This mod is a vanilla-friendly proof of concept what our code can do. You are still allowed to like Rimefeller, hell, I love it myself.

@blue Thanks, your question just answered why I couldn't adjust the damn output lol. Was driving me nuts.

is it intentional behavior for taps to only be able to be adjusted if they have nothing on them?

The deepchem tank caused some weird issues with my pawns randomly stopping with construction work and just having the "standing" task. After I removed it all these problems stopped.

Something I would love to see added to this mod are deepchem wells or whatever you'd want to call them. Basically they'd be similar to the gas geysers from gas expanded and let you build deepchem pump on top of them.

Thank you for the mod.

After trying both Rimefeller and VCE in separate saves they both seem to work well, its really your choice!

Separate.

Hello! Loving the mod, but feel as if deep chem pockets are too common. Is it possible to bring the commonality down? I cant seem to access the settings, thank you!

Will there be pipe system refinery for nutrient paste to chemfuel?
