Movie Prop Tools and Blocks

Adds a set of "prop" tools, which act in the same way as the normal versions (emit the same particle effects, make the same sounds, etc.), but do not actually function*. Useful for background scenes involving work being done, where you don't want to actually grind, weld, or drill blocks/voxels.

(* Due to game limitations, the Prop Drill has a number of issues. It will not produce the "dust" effect, since that is generated from voxels being removed, rather than by the drill itself. Also, the tiny drilling speed means the drill will only activate once after being selected. If you stop "drilling", you will have to reselect it to start agan.)

There are also new prop versions of all weapons (player and ship) and turrets, which fire blanks, as well as the Pyrotechnic Charge, which simulates a warhead explosion. These prop weapons deal no damage, but otherwise have the same characteristics as their real counterparts.

Also included is a version of the "Dead Astronaut" from the campaign, with a custom collision mesh to avoid it taking up an entire block.

NEW:

Pyrotechnic versions of
- Large and small Reactors
- Oxygen and Hydrogen tanks
- Jump Drive
- Hydrogen and Atmospheric Thrusters

These blocks come in both damaging and non-damaging versions, and produce a warhead explosion while looking like a functional block, meaning you can hide pyrotechnic effects in plain sight. The Damaging variants produce an explosion identical to a standard warhead, while the Non-Damaging variants are an effect only, and do no damage.

Also adds in two "hidden" blocks present in the vanilla game:

- Monolith

- Stereolith (Essentially identical to the monolith, just with slightly different writing on the sides)


These blocks are both technically present in the base game, but simply cannot be accessed. This means they will remain in place even after removing this mod.

In addition, there are also 21 types of placeable bushes, and 19 types of placeable trees in the form of blocks, for easier scene decoration.


- Prop versions of new vanilla trees
- Small-grid trees?


- The insubstantial blocks bug has finally been corrected!
- Bush collision meshes have been massively reduced, and bushes may now be walked through
- "Dead Engineer" Collisions are now accurate to the model
- Prop Drill no longer does any voxel removal
- Proper icons added for trees, bushes, and monolith/stereolith


- Added Pyrotechnic versions of functional blocks

- Added Prop Guns, Turrets, and Missile Launchers
- Added Pyrotechnic Charges

- Implemented block variant system for bushes and trees
- Decluttered G-menu



- Prop Drill issues as detailed above
