Economical Vanilla Hydrogen

Description
Economical Vanilla Hydrogen Block Definition Replacements for:

H2 Thrusters - 10x Hydrogen Efficiency
- H2 Thrusters Only - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1881898680

H2/O2 Generator - 5X Ice to Gas Efficiency for O2 & H2
- H2/O2 Only - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1881902771

H2 Large Generator - 10MW & 6X Hydrogen Efficiency
H2 Small Generator - 2.5MW & 6X Hydrogen Efficiency
- H2 Generators Only - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1881900613
- Fixes Hull's Economical Hydrogen Engines which are broken - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1716080668
-1.192.102/104 changes how some XML block definition properties work, the EnergyDensity tag in GasProperties appears to do nothing now. XML parsing seems to be more strict, worlds that have mods with unclosed tags appear to fail to load.

Large H2 Tank 6.75M Liters
Small H2 Tank 250K Liters
- 1.192.102/104 changed tank flow rate limitations, its now no longer listed and much higher rather than a static fraction of total volume, making small tank mods, like the various 3x3x3's with capacities inline with vanilla useful. It would be nice if these values were modifiable and moved to the XML Block Definitions.

Large O2 Tank - Unchanged
Small O2 Tank - Unchanged
- These may be stripped out


Update 2019-10-04:
New Thumbnail
Added comments to block definition XML files showing what values have been changed.

Update 2019-10-05:

Tweaked H2 Engines to be a direct replacement to Hull's XML edits, which are still broken?
1.192.104 and the previous update had several undocumented changes in the XML block definition files and undocumented changes to how some objects work.

A set of Secondary packs will be published with some standalone block edits, and an additional combined pack of Block Definition XML edits, including some additional H2 Workshop items, that I would like, and I think the community would appreciate to make H2 more useful and add some progression blocks to prevent PCU bloat.


Please read the Steam Workshop Agreement. Users of the workshop retain no rights to anything they publish. Feel free to review the files included, educate yourself on how the block definition XML files work, re-spin and republish to the steam workshop as you deem appropriate.

I have a bug, the mod is no longer installed, and in the vanilla game, the Big Hydrogen Tank still has a huge capacity. Checking files or reinstalling doesn't help.

Please Update!

For some reason my O2/H2 generator doesn't always want to work with a medical room. Mine is currently working about 1/3rd of the time. I don't know what causes it.

The generator has power, is turned on, has ice, and is connected with a med room. It will refill bottles just fine, but not my suit.

Am i doing something wrong or am i supposed to have 100x better efficiency for thrusters when i turn on this mod?

Hydrogen engines are broken with this mod, guess a recent update broke it. The other hydrogen stuff works fine though

Would this also affect any mod with tiered H2 engines, or only the vanilla ones?

Raio - The O2 tanks are the Vanilla tanks that are already in game. When I get more time, I plan on putting out a more separate mod with a more expansive H2 re-balance utilizing some models from the workshop to add tiered items.

I like variety of sizes for gas storage, it allows compacting and or more different shapes for base and hull designs. And also can be good just for deco. Just my two cents on "These may be stripped out."

Thank you, works great.
