Simple Custom Gas Framework

Description
A framework for creating custom gas types.











To learn more, head over to the wiki[github.com]

Dependencies

Incompatibilities
No known incompatibilities, if you find a mod that doesn't work please let me know!

Compatible Apparel Mods
This framework includes patches for gas-protecting apparel in the following mods:

FAQ
Q: Can you add a pipe network for the gases?
A: No, that is out of scope for this framework.

Q: How much does this impact performance?
A: In normal gameplay performance should actually be better than in vanilla, thanks to the gas grid optimizations in Performance Fish[github.com]

Q: Can this be safely added and removed from a save?
A: Yeah, besides a few one-off errors it'll be fine.

Q: Why does this require the Biotech DLC?
A: RimWorld only does hediff applying logic for gases if Biotech is active.

Q: How do I make a custom gas?
A: Head over to the wiki[github.com]

Q: CE?
A: Gases themselves are CE compatible, however most gas mods will probably also add shells, IEDs, and/or launchers, so you should check the page of the gas mods themselves instead of the framework.

@Interloper thank you for the kind words, 1.6 actually hasn't changed anything gas related from what I can see, the only thing blocking the update to 1.6 is Performance Fish - which does a lot of the heavy lifting related to GasDefs.
Interloper Jul 25 @ 10:02am 
@Jsin0 If you really want to change the dispersal radius, you can go to the shell/IED itself, that is. From there the GasDefs can be modified for a greater/lesser density of spawned gas via the dissipationRate and spread via diffuses, either true or false. Keep in mind that you rarely want a dissipationRate at 0, and at 255 it better be a very angry gas.

@NachoToast thanks for continuing this work! GasDefs are universally strange, and I imagine 1.6 made the whole thing even more complex. The current system is way more modular than before, I'll have to see about getting a persistent agent a try via some custom gas fun. Like before, I'll also test it with the 1.6 test build of CE whenever you get the time to update.

@Turu no

Is there a chance this mod will work without Performance Fish as a dependency?

@Jsin0 GasDefs have diffusion and dissipation rate properties, the radius of gas created by something like an IED/shell is defined in the IED/shell itself though, not the gas
Jsin0 Jul 10 @ 11:46pm 
Is there an option to adjust the radius of the gas?

1.6 for this will be out once Performance Fish is updated to 1.6, it also won't require Biotech!

@Kaden Ha not really sorry, checking that a gas is "outside" every time it ticks would be very expensive, and wind doesn't really exist in rimworld (wind turbines are just glorified sine waves) afaik
Kaden Ha May 6 @ 6:42am 
Is there anyway to customize dissipation/diffusion behaviour? Like gas dissipates faster while outside and windy.

@DoodleKatMoon you are very welcome lol :)
