Independent Survival - 1.197 Update

Description
Original mod page:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=725361837

This is my attempt to fix this mod, with a lot of guidance from the lovely people in the KSH discord.
So far working in singleplayer and USUALLY working in multiplayer, though it still doesn't save with the game; All attempts I've made to fix that have ended in crashes, so remember to stash your stuff in external containers before quitting!
What I mean by 'usually multiplayer' is that sometimes other players just don't seem to get backpacks for some reason? Not sure what's up with that.

Currently, the mod is on-par with the original feature-wise, meaning Shift+R to use the medbay, and CTRL+R to open the inventory.
If you only see the refinery when opening your backpack, just click the icon next to the helmet; Space Engineers now usually defaults to only seeing the inventory of the block you're directly interacting with, but they're all still connected and usable.

In the future, I hope to add a proper config to the mod for use keys, fix multiplayer inconsistencies, and allow the backpack to be saved with the game.
In the short-term, I could maybe add an option in the backpack to create tools, but there's not much use for it without some kind of component/ingot/ore loot around.

However, currently, I'm just happy to have this back.

Make sure you don't have anything else running in the suit before trying to refine the ice in to fuel.
If you have ore in the refinery, for example, it will be taking all the power that the RTG provides, preventing the fuel generator from refining, thus everything stops.

where do i put ice to even make fuel? i tried everything and doesn't do jack

thank you, thought that ice was a fuel source, not be used first before anything else
Darian Stephens  [author] 14 May @ 10:49pm 
Are you certain it has the power to run?
You need the special fuel the ice conversion thing makes in order to run it.
If you try to run the refinery before doing that, then you won't have the power to make the fuel, and nothing will happen.
Try turning everything else in the suit off, to make sure the generator has enough power to convert ice in to fuel.

i about to go to sleep, i'll look at the modlist and see if it a mod conflict tomarrow if that works

i tried putting stone in the suit refinery and it wouldnt process the stone unless i have some sort of mod conflict that somehow edits the stone production
Darian Stephens  [author] 14 May @ 10:05pm 
I thought it did work? I'm pretty sure the suit refinery basically acts as a basic refinery, so it should be able to process stone no problem.

i asking since i tried to use the tip athoren said but it wouldnt work, either that or i am plain dumb XD
General Jame Macheal 14 May @ 9:37pm 
would be nice to have it updated atleast to allow stone conversion due to it would make a great suit only starter game :)
General Jame Macheal 14 May @ 9:36pm 
question, will this mod ever gonna be updated to allow conversion of stone to the basic resources?
