Sailpunk Airships

1.5: it works fine on 1.5 according to my testing, just ignore the version warning.


This mod adds primitive airships to Rimworld, they are slow and use only basic vanilla resources both to construction and refueling,they intended to be used on medieval/tribal colonies (Although they are mostly for medieval uses I'm sure their aesthetic can fit well in to a steampunk themed colony too), they require a considerable amount of resources so don't expect to use them in the first week.


-----------------------------
Balance:

They have a generous range, carry a lot of people and cargo but they are considerably large and frail, and they demand a lot of wood to refuel (keep it in mind in longer trips, you may run out of fuel in a desert) also they are kinda slow!
------------------------------
Incompatibilities:

Anything incompatible with SRTS expanded.

Possibly anything that removes/changes vanilla materials.

----------------------------
Known issues:

- Airship don't recognize the fuel (wood/hay) you have on inventory while on caravan: I don't know how to fix it yet (I think its part of the code of the original mod and I'm not sure I can actually change it) , once on caravan the airship will only recognize Chemfuel as a valid fuel item. BUT you can fix by settling on a tile you landed and refueling the airship manually them abandoning the tile.

-----------------------------
Future updates:
This mod is done, I have no intention of adding more ships to this one or anything else, it was a interesting experiment that made way more success than I ever expected, but my interest for it already faded away, I will only try to keep it updated with Rimworld's versions.

-----------------------------
I'm not a real programmer, I'm an artist and this mod is a artistic side project I made for fun and mostly for my personal use, so I have to say Thank you very much to the creators of the original SRTS expanded for putting instructions on the original mod, it helped me a lot!

Wow I didn't expected this mod to be so successful, I don't have a coffee or patreon to put here , all I can say is thank you all....also Trans rights are human rights and GLORY TO UKRAINE!
