Fine-Tuned Sandbox Options

In 1 collection by Panopticon
Build 41.78 Solo Overhaul
371 items
Description
This mod lets you customize the number of days for when the water and electricity shut off in solo play (singleplayer) without using debug mode.

This is based on Fine Tune Options, but implemented in a simpler way, removing the small UI issues of the original. Keep in mind that the original still mostly works for Build 41, despite being made in 2016! The difference is that Fine Tune Options directly modifies the UI, whereas this mod makes a new page. Both perform the same thing, technically.

Mod Details
This mod has the following 4 parameters:
  • Water Shutoff Minimum - number of days before the water systems can shut off
  • Water Shutoff Maximum - number of days before the water systems must shut off
  • Electricity Shutoff Minimum - number of days before the power grid can shut off
  • Electricity Shutoff Maximum - number of days before the power grid must shut off

Future Plans
I plan to add the other dropdown options and convert them into numerical inputs, once I figure out how they actually work (e.g. what does "Rare" mean in the game's code?).

Compatibility
  • Compatible with any mod that does not touch the same sandbox options
  • Not multiplayer compatible (servers use different sandbox options for the number of days)
  • Not save-game compatible (you could change the sandbox options in-game using other mods, but I don't think it will play nicely)

Languages
If you would like to have your language included, please create your own translations and provide them to me below. Thank you!
This currently supports English (EN), 한국어 (KO), and Русский (RU).

@Panopticon is there a way for you to make so that the shutoff never happen, so that no matter how long i play it will never be down and always on?

Possibly, not sure yet.

@Karas_Gaming
Yes, they are set once.

So would it be correct to assume that water and electricity shut-off day values are set at the start of the game and cannot be changed after? It's just that I used the original "fine tune options" mod to set both to day 90 but it shows 0-6 months for both in the sandbox options window when I check it with the mid-game sandbox configuration.

Either way, good mod here. I'm going to use this from now on, wish I looked at the comment section of "fine tune options" earlier.

@robbing houd
Click the link under "Compatibility" for a sandbox options mod. But I don't think the game lets you reassign the dates after you start playing. It's worth a shot though.

how do i change it mid game tho? like how do i extend the days after creating the sandbox? must i create a new one and start over?
