Why does the link to toolbox insist on opening in a browser and not steam client? It is sucha pain to remember my password

This sounds like it would go great with the Advanced Welding mod

Okay I can confirm that it was a software issue, using winrar and doing the same steps worked, the models and icons are fine, great !

Thanks for the replies, I appreciate the infos.

I think the issue is with how you're extracting the mod. I'm not familiar with bandizip. I use winrar and/or 7zip.

Also, oops accidentally deleted your post.

I use notepad++, but regular notepad would work too.

cubeblocks.sbc from this mod contains the info of all the blocks from this mod. find the block(s) you want to change (look for names and id's), and change each one you want to <public>true</public>. That's it.

I know it shouldn't break them, what you described is what I have done but as I said the custom models won't work, it might be due to what I use to open the bin archive and the sbc file, what software do you use to open them ? I could give that a try and see if it changes anything

Did they change how blocks show up in the g-menu? I doubt it. You open cubeblocks.sbc from this mod, and literally just change
<public>false</public> to
<public>true</public>
And it should show up in the g-menu just as you would expect. I have no idea why it's screwing up the model for you, it really shouldn't be doing that at all if you're doing this right.

@Alb do you think you could help out trying to understand why modifying "cubeblocks.sbc" breaks the models ? Would you care for it to begin with ?

Modifying the required file to make them work in the G-menu breaks the custom models and the blocks do not have any icons in the menu.
So don't bother.

So I got 2 questions. 1, are there small ship versions of these blocks? And 2, how exactly do we add this to the g-menu?

Where is the file for that?

Sure. Just change to <public> true</public> in the cubeblocks.sbc

would it be possible to add these to the g-menu manually for my own use?

Thrusters had a 20% boost in the 1.189 patch. Can you also boost your Quantum Vortex Thruster by 20% to match this?

What needs updating? Everything should work fine.

plz update mod

it would be nice if some powerfull randomly spawned boss would have them as reward for beating him

i want to see them in g menu!!!

Well there's this:

If you want to make it not show up on the g-menu, open up its cubeblocks.sbc file and change the <public> property to false and save it as your own mod. Be sure to make a blueprint of the block before you do that though, so you can paste it in as admin once you remove it from the menu.

i've been thinking about doing this for a long time to make capturable OP tech for players on a server. could you design a machine that slowly generates infinite metals from stone or something?

And, you know what, I also added the small grid version of insanium armor. You're welcome, those who asked for it. Sorry it took this long.

Alright! Turns out insanium armor was getting DESTROYED by everything because I didn't set it up properly in code. One gatling bullet would blow it up...
I fixed it, NOW it is truely insanium and would withstand any attack.
It can now stand agains a gattling turret constantly shooting for 30 something weeks straight.

Only for large grid, currently. I'm not a modeler, so I gotta use vanilla models or ask other modders for their stuff.

can we have small block blueprints frome these or is it only for large grid?

Just updated this with a new reward-block: The HYDROGEN FARM !

Also, I updated the code a bit here.
The quantum thruster wasn't quite working as intended... So I changed it to an "ion" type thruster, BUT it's backwards (it works better in atmosphere). So you can still treat it as an atmo-thruster, but now it can also be used in space as well (20% thrust in space).

I changed the description. Don't worry.

I also released this new mod that randomly spawns pirate bases featuring these new blocks! Here:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1510183381

I just read that you have told about it in the description and now I feel stupid.

(sorry, my english is not so good)

Rip. Not so insanium I guess.

i destroyed Insanium Armor. i just let it fall from the sky

@Amazon - u coud probs do that using the custom planet encounters thing that u can do

The Beam mining Laser would be a good fit for this pack.

How are you supposed to add this to a ship?

I'm gonna make that and then upload it to the workshop.

with the insanium armor, you should make a ship called achillies and have it coated in the armor, and only a single block of the ship can be shot out to more or less disable the ship.

Many years had passed since the mention of the Death Laser. Some say it is hiding in the empty vastness of space, waiting to be found. Others say it is not published yet.

@Alb
Seems legit

Haha oops! Forgot to publish the blueprints collection, wow. Should work now.

As for distributing the blocks, you just got to physically paste the block in front of them and say "here ya go" or something. They don't show up on the g-menu at all (just like the monolith block) so the only way to see them is to use the blueprints and paste them in when you're an admin. So just subscribe to the blueprints and paste them in for them, let them figure out how to jury-rig them to their builds.

So I am a little confused. Are the blocks in this mod able to be distributed somehow? We wanted to use them as rewards to events we hold but if there isn't a way to transfer them to another player to reward them, it kind of hinders the idea. Also, it seems your blueprint link above does not work, so I cant even try the blocks out.

Just a suggestion, but maybe you should add a Antenna called the Transdimensional Info Gate with infinite range?

Just large ship for now. Could do small tho...

Is it smallship too?

XD
Perfect troll

They technically are, but it would take days of constant grinding to finally break it down. And even if you manage that, you'll get a whole 1 scrap for it.

Imagine what would happen if the insanium blocks were accidentally grindable

huh

Ok, I just tested negative mass, and when 2 objects with negative mass collide in-game they... phase through eachother... and cause a lot of lag.

When I bumped into it with my astronaut, I phased through and couldn't move for a while. Had to restart my jetpack. Also there was a bit of weirdness going on with the audio.

Maybe put a limit at 1 kg or sumthin?
That way it will always have mass, but be really light
