Underground Pipes Rebalance

Description
CONTENTS

Can be use with any combination of the above mods. Including none of them, if you're weird like that.

DETAILS
  • All underground pipes now have the same cost as their above-ground counterparts, but now take far longer to install (the description of UPC says 10x more, but it's actually closer to 15x).
  • They also now have the <ai_neverTrashThis> tag. They are still vulnerable to nearby explosions.
  • The beauty score of underground pipes is now 0.
  • Changed the menu icons of underground pipes to reflect the style used in UPC.
  • Underground Chemfuel pipes are now on the FloorEmplacement altitude layer (the same as the rest)

KNOWN ISSUES
None so far.

OTHER MODS
I love Helixien Gas! If you do too, check out some of my other mods:

So thank you very much for this mod! I used it in many of my games. I think it's quite appreciated when the functionality of your mod is incorporated into the base game. Thanks again!

Thanks in advance.

Must have missed this in the notes. Welp thanks for your mod in any case.

@Thetaprime: It's difficult to know what to do with this mod yet, as 1.5 introduced behaviour similar to UPC. So I don't know if UPC will be updated, or if I could rebalance to 1.5 behaviour. And now that this happens in vanilla, I don't know if the VE team will rebalance their own mods to be consistent. My plan has been to wait a few weeks and see what happens.

In DropdownMenusVE.xml, you have some xpaths which look like:

> /Defs/ThingDef[defName="VHGE_SubterraneanHelixienPipe"][not(designatorDropdown)]

If another mod (in my case Niilo's QoL ) has already set a designator dropdown for any of these ThingDefs, the patch operation fails with an error. Can I suggest either using PatchOperationConditional to gracefully skip the patch if the designatorDropdown element already exists, or else use <success>Always</success> to squelch the error?

No worries, and no pressure. They're on the same system as the other pipes so I assume it'd be similar to what you already have.
Either way, appreciate the response.

@Taylor7500: I haven't had a chance to play since it came out, but I imagine it is something I'd be interested in. If I find some time I might do it.

Are you the right person to ask for support for the pipes added in Vanilla Androids Expanded to get underground versions?
