Pipe Changer (Water Pipe Upgrader RELOADED)

Description
Pipe Changer Overview
This mod gives you the ability to change water pipes to heat pipes an vice versa.



Technical Infos
This mod is based on WaterPipeUpgraderv2 , but some things are DIFFERENT

IMPORTANT: Use the OLD Water Pipe Upgrader mod OR this one, NOT both at the same time !!!

Features
The basic function is the same, but he has some deletions / additions:
  • REMOVED: You don´t have to open up the water pipe menu !!!
  • NEW: Now you can open the mod with ALT + D (configurable in Options)
  • NEW: Now you´re able to Up AND Downgrade your water / heat pipes
  • NEW: Verbose Logging, if you encounter problems (Turn it on/off in Options)
  • NEW: Drag´n´Move the Mod, the position will be saved and next time automaticall loaded

Acknowledgements
  • BIG THX 2 DontCryJustDie for the fantastic ORIGINAL Mod :)
  • Thx to @Azarilh for the unconscious idea to extend the mod´s functionality :)
  • Extended Road Upgrade by Wiliz for the GetSegmentControlPoints method.[github.com]
  • Thx to SamSamTS for the UIUtils Class
  • Thx to Krzychu1245 for his fantastic Broken Node Detector Mod. I´m taking some code from this mod. (Hope it´s ok?)

Mod Compatibility
Like the old mod, this mod doesn´t brake your save games, has NO incompatibility with other mods and should run without problems. But if you encounter problems, you can show in the Mod´s Logfile "PipeChanger_Log.txt", wich you can find in *PathToYourSteamLibrary*\steamapps\common\Cities_Skylines\.

@Headkillah: Yes, that makes sense. Thanks for the answer.

@Finwickle: I have upgraded the old mod BUT because of all the changes i´ve made and the posibility to change from/to water/heatpipes the mod has a new name. Is your question answered?

Just out of curiosity: Why did you create this as a new mod and not upgrade the old one?

@headkillah you are right. My comment was about pipe lines generally.

Okay, i can understand this. But what has it to do with this mod? :)

Since waterpipes are invisible and can be built irrealistic, I switched them off. Actually the pipes are consuming number of net nodes, so you can build less roads, parwasys, etc., due to the hardcore limit.

I hope that there will be a utilities DLC or a complete change in Cities Skylines 2.
