Insulation Walls Patch for Celsius

Description
Because the insulated wall base of Insulation (Continued) is created inheriting all properties (including thermodynamic properties) from the vanilla wall, the different types of insulated walls can't be changed to actually insulate better than the vanilla wall under Celsius temperature mechanics. The patches do exist in Celsius, but they are commented out because they don't work.

This mod recreates the insulated wall base without inheritance from the vanilla wall and applies those existing patches, which are copied for this purpose. The walls now insulate at different levels as intended (see preview image).

Incompatible with:
Celsius Patches

Please let me know if you encounter any errors.

@[RTB] Sarianos It creates its own version of a wall idenpendent from the vanilla one, and that clashed with the wall created by this mod. (I haven't played with Celsius in a while, so something might have changed in the meantime.)

@klvlt You state in the description that the Celsius Patches mod is incompatible, would you mind explaining why that is the case?

I started a test game with just Celsius, Insulation, Dubs Bad Hygiene and this mod. The wooden insulated walls have different values for insulation, so everything is working as it's supposed to. The issue must be caused by an interaction with another mod.

i have insulation, this patch and celsius installed and in the info there is an entry called insulation. standard wood has 6.3 but the insulated version has only 5

I double-checked, the walls do get different thermodynamic properties, so this shouldn't be the case. Where did you take the value 5 from? (Do you have Celsius Patches in your mod list?)

the insulation values are 5 on every single one. with vanilla being around 6.3 due to wood the insulated wooden walls are even worse than just wood

@OceanOfGaming That's weird. This mod only adds Celsius' properties to the insulated walls, which are copied from the (inactive) patch for Insulation included in Celsius itself. If the walls are behaving unexpectedly, that's probably something to do with Celsius' mechanics, maybe some sort of interaction there.

I contucted a test with this and dubs aircon units and the vanilla wooden wall came out best in terms of energy efficiency. all the other insulated walls needed more energy than the vanilla and every type used the same amount of energy to keep the room cool. after shutting off the rooms all heated up significantly except vanilla. while all rooms with insulation were already at 5C plus the vanilla room was still at -2 (target temp was -4C

@Sasha Fox #SaveTF2 Celsius Patches was reported as incompatible (comment now deleted apparently). As I recall, the mod creates its own version of a wall which clashed with this one. This mod doesn't patch additional things, it just replaces the insulated wall.
