Orbital Ring Buildings [OBSOLETE]

Description
Updated to 3.10

I am no longer maintaining this mod
Sorry, I don't have the time and dedication to maintain this mod. Luckily, someone agreed to adopt it and will be keeping an up to date version here.

Feature Overview
This mod extends functionality of orbital rings in a vanilla-friendly way.

It adds the following buildings:
- Microgravity Research Labs: increases researcher output for increased upkeep
- Strategic Orbital Resource Depot: boosts exotic resource production for increased upkeep
- Orbital Coordination System & Organic convenience infrastructure: increases unity job output for regular machines and rogue servitors
- Orbital Surveillance Hub: reduces crime.

It changes the following planetary buildings:
- Research Institute on ringworlds additionally provides the same bonus as Microgravity Research Labs

It also makes maintenance hub (+1 amenities from maintenance drones) available to hive minds

Finally, this mod adds a few orbital ring modules:
- Orbital habitat module: grants flat housing bonus
- Orbital infrastructure depot: grants flat amenities bonus
- Solar panel network: works exactly like the one for regular starbases

Compatibility
This mod doesn't override any vanilla files, but does change some buildings and economic categories. Mod conflicts are unlikely and load order shouldn't matter. Please, feel free to report any issues you encounter.
The mod Space Elevators has in-built compatibility with the buildings from this mod.

Special thanks
Skyhy for the idea and original implementation
Legit-Rikk for ideas for some extra buildings and modules

You forget to remove the 30_orb_research_buildings files. With the new leaders system, this file is outdated. I think. Maybe.

Gigastructures are not my intellectual property, it wouldn't be right to just rip features out of it. You could ask gigas devs to make their modules as a separate mod, they are the only ones who can

Greetings. I really like your mod. I have a small request. Playing gigastructures, I found a technology there that allows you to build structures in the cells of the orbital rings that increase the max number of districts of a CERTAIN type on the planet.

Below I attach a disk with screenshots of buildings and technologies that open them.

So, about the request. Could you transfer these buildings to your mod, or create a separate modification for this?

Thanks...this is how it has to be done with every game update (I know it can be annoying...but it has to be done to avoid creating confusion even if the mod still works...the compatibility version of each mod goes updated every time...I have +100 translation mods and often there are no changes but I always update the mod version so as not to be incompatible with the base game version.)

I uploaded an update that only changes mod version to avoid any further confusion
borsk  [author] 17 Sep, 2023 @ 2:32am 
yeah, I verified that it still works perfectly fine in the new version, so no changes are required

@ borsk hi, on the mod page you write that it is updated to 3.9 but the last upload was on 14/05 and therefore still for version 3.8...

@Maschinenmenschv gigastructures don't add buildings, they add modules. Well, last time I checked they had modules that increase max mining/generator/farming districts. But I'm willing to believe they might've changed that since I checked
