HCDS / Small Ship Refinery and Assembler

Description
Note: this item is a part of a larger client and server mod, HCDS. The contents are available separately for your convenience.

SMALL SHIP REFINERY

Function: the Jury Refinery, as the name implies, is an emergency-grade block suited for small ships, especially for minimalistic respawn ship builds. The module is noticeably slower than the vanilla Refinery and has limited inventory, but the energy consumption is halved, not to mention the cheapness of construction.

Note: due to the block being emergency cheap ad-hoc solution the Jury Refinery does not support conveyors. You cannot place a dozen of these blocks on a small ship, jack them into the ship conveyor network and leave refining 100k of Uranium. This is intentional.

The 3x3x5 towering block has its inventory access at the top of the main tank.

SMALL SHIP ASSEMBLER

Function: the Jury Assembler accompanies the namesake Refinery and has pretty much the same function and characteristics. Assembly speed is only 75% compared to vanilla Assembler, but the power is halved, and the block itself is cheap.

Note: as with the Jury Refinery, this assembler does not support conveyors for exactly the same reasons.

The small assembler has the same dimensions as the medium cargo container. Note that the mount points are only at the four sides, the access holes are to be left, well, accessible.

Both blocks are colorable, DX11-compatible and are with simple construction models.

its not useless, its a startpack... and yes, you have to do some manual work...

This would be nice if it would support conveyors.
As it stands now, it is completely useless. It's a shame, because it's clear that there's a lot of work here. But it is rendered useless.

is there a version of this tht support conveyer systems?

True, but it kinda messes with the tiny all-in-one survival/construction pod I was hoping to make. Not a huge industrial vessel, just something to get you going, probably using the Build and Repair System mod.

I like that conveyors aren't available, personally.

1) It should still work, albeit it looks ugly now compared to redesigned vanilla blocks; 2) It never had conveyor support. Conveyor mount points are defined inside the model, not xml/metadata, so it's not possible to add them without redoing the initial model (the file I long lost). As I've pointed out earlier, I've lost all source models, so there's not much to do apart from redoing everything from scratch first.

I never got through mastering Blender and/or having visual ideas of how to redo these and other blocks. While I do want to have them all updated/redone, it's just too much hassle with no more value for me at this point (I don't play the game or maintain a server anymore), so it never goes to the top of this huge list of things-i-promised-to-do I got. But thanks for bringing it up, helps to know people still use it and want it in an up-to-date state, so hopefully I might bring myself to this work again.
