there will be no option to remove ice, there is no configurations for the player for this, i am not capable of scripting such things.

I would like to see an encased version like the encased connectors we just got in the Contact update.
Peekofwar 17 Oct, 2024 @ 9:06pm 
I agree; Ice is also often an unwanted item I often get on snowy terrain.
Shikoi Kurogami 10 Oct, 2024 @ 10:19pm 
In the future, will this also have the ability to get rid of ice as well?
Nikolas March  [author] 3 May, 2024 @ 5:29pm 
nothing changed, its likely your mod cache was corrupted, im told unsubbing, quiting steam, restarting and resubbing will redownload the mod.
VivaVii 20 Apr, 2024 @ 10:04pm 
i think this is a great idea, i hope ya get it all nice and polished \o/

Something change today... I can no longer us the Stone Duster, because if I put it in my Mod List to use, the game won't start... It will go back to the start page. I love this thing... it helps me unjam the nano drills when they fill up... or when inventory is full and everything stops.. just turn them on and watch inventory level go down until your able to start everything back up... I hope you can fix this problem...

non critical errors are to be ignored

Not critical, but i have 2 errors:

MOD_ERROR: Stone Duster, in file:
...\244850\1222032427\Data\BlueprintClasses_SD.sbc
Resource not found, setting to null. Resource path:
...\244850\1222032427\Textures\GUI\Icons\buttons\large_block_highlight.dds

MOD_ERROR: Stone Duster, in file:
...\244850\1222032427\Data\BlueprintClasses_SD.sbc
Resource not found, setting to null. Resource path:
...\244850\1222032427\Textures\GUI\Icons\buttons\large_block_highlight.dds

I think the right file now is "large_block_focus.dds", but can be wrong.

I wrote it just because I noticed that you keep the mod updated. Thanks for your hard work!
Nikolas March  [author] 3 Feb, 2024 @ 10:22am 
done, feel free to let me know if any others of my mods that may be in popular demand :)
Nikolas March  [author] 3 Feb, 2024 @ 10:04am 
that sounds like a good idea, i will do it shortly :)

Please publish this mod on Mod.io! So that you can also use them on crossplay servers!
Nikolas March  [author] 13 Dec, 2023 @ 7:07pm 
there is a way to delete all mod data to force a redownload, this will delete them all though, if its a new laptop, it might be that the mods arent downloaded yet, steam downloads your subbed items on the fly when the game isnt loaded
TechnicalBandit 13 Dec, 2023 @ 9:53am 
It's a brand new budget gaming laptop with 1TB SSD, it's 100% not the 3.1MB file requirement that's stopping it. I've tried on new worlds, old worlds. Unsub and re-sub... nothing seems to work. is there anything else I can try? I hate stone and need a mod like this! Surprised there aren't more out there! Please, can you help? :steamsad:
Nikolas March  [author] 13 Dec, 2023 @ 8:30am 
its just a refinery with a different model and configuration, it should work fine, might be some other problem, disk space maybe?
TechnicalBandit 13 Dec, 2023 @ 7:49am 
Love the idea of this mod, but it refuses to load when I enter the game... Just stays on downloading mod screen infinitely...
Is it still working with the current version?
Nikolas March  [author] 2 Jun, 2023 @ 6:15am

GS0M 2 Jun, 2023 @ 4:25am 
thanks for advice, it works
Nikolas March  [author] 1 Jun, 2023 @ 4:54pm 
also the server ,mmight need to delete their mod cache too
Nikolas March  [author] 1 Jun, 2023 @ 4:54pm 
mod is fine, i use it on my server, must be a random thing, clear mod cache on your game client
GS0M 1 Jun, 2023 @ 2:38pm 
When on server, game crashes after place block, after update 202.117. No problems in solo.
Nikolas March  [author] 24 May, 2023 @ 9:01am 
noted...
[AiR] Le0_gAiR 24 May, 2023 @ 5:54am 
a quick report : game crashes when used with https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2590528047&searchtext=aww+scrap
sometimes some scrap gets in the dusters and the game crashes
Nikolas March  [author] 11 May, 2023 @ 10:10pm

ilson 11 May, 2023 @ 10:01pm 
Thanks for the mod! Everything works fine, he does what he needs. Nothing superfluous. Thank you.(google translator)
Nikolas March  [author] 18 Feb, 2023 @ 6:00pm 
mod works fine for me, it must be corruption on your end

Nikolas March  [author] 2 Dec, 2022 @ 6:57pm 
im not going to even look at that link, im not really a coder, and i like it the way it is, i domnt want that type of extra functionality, as it would mean a PCU increase on the block for the more processing time required, this is just a simple refinery reskin and rename, thats all it will ever be :)
jus61 2 Dec, 2022 @ 2:23pm 
Can you add this extension to your mod?
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2817740695
In this mod you can set what he should throw out thereby all mods are supported with new resources.
Nikolas March  [author] 2 Sep, 2022 @ 8:54pm 
nope, beyond my abilities, i always keep some spare gravel in a passenger seat for when i need it
Stone Duster is just a refinery block with its output efficiency set to 0, im unable to change something like that, plus its not hard to find stone to turn in to gravel when you need it.
Paxination 2 Sep, 2022 @ 8:17pm 
Any chance you can put in an option to disable gravel? I'd like to keep the gravel that my ship is making instead of getting rid of it
Mousserr 1 Jul, 2022 @ 3:03pm 
Ok. Thanks. That could explain why another mod isn't working as well.
Nikolas March  [author] 30 Jun, 2022 @ 9:37pm 
the mod is fine, steam is having another one of its 'moments', keen needs to use the updated stea files to fully correct this
Mousserr 30 Jun, 2022 @ 8:06pm 
Can you update? It keeps crashing game when I try to load it. Thanks
Nikolas March  [author] 9 Jun, 2022 @ 3:24pm 
no, this is a 'refinery block' with a different model and specific item limits.
Micrurus 22 Apr, 2022 @ 7:29am 
good afternoon, is it possible to add a black and white list to this block, as is done in the sorter? If I want to add my own ore, for example ice
Nikolas March  [author] 19 Apr, 2022 @ 3:01am 
it should do yes, what i normally do is keep some gravel in the top inventory section of a Survival Kit, the stone duster can not take it from there :)
EvilSmoo 18 Apr, 2022 @ 8:35pm 
If I have an inventory script, can this just chew up stone it receives, so the script can keep a bit in a high priority container, and throw all the rest into here at low priority?
Nikolas March  [author] 5 Mar, 2022 @ 12:52pm 
all my mods are aimed at vanilla use, gravel is not used to bulletproofglass in vanilla, and only a very little is needed for reactors, so it is something that is hardly used, im sure you have some passenger seats around somewhere to put some, gravel in spare, you could also turn off your stone dusters that are on your mining ship before you dock to your base.
Jailbroken 5 Mar, 2022 @ 8:01am 
@dclipse put a sorter behind your gravel duster that is whitelisted for stone only
MagboneD 5 Mar, 2022 @ 7:20am 
I've always loved this mod, but is there a way to turn off the gravel dusting? Gravel isn't junk, it's an ingot that's required for glass and reactors. While the dusters are on, they pull *all* gravel out of my storage and eliminate it.
Nikolas March  [author] 22 Feb, 2022 @ 3:07pm 
volume slider is beyond my abilities
Jailbroken 22 Feb, 2022 @ 1:35pm 
Thank you very much for being open to the suggestion. I recommended a volume slider because I was thinking of Nanobot Build & Repair. it has a volume slider. I'm not sure how hard that is to implement, but seems like it would be easier than making a copy. However you want to do it is fine with me :-) Love the mod.
Nikolas March  [author] 22 Feb, 2022 @ 7:55am 
i will see if there is a different quiet sound to use, if not i will make a duplicate entry for the stone duster just with a much lower volume, SE is well known for excessively loud sound effects
Jailbroken 21 Feb, 2022 @ 12:07pm 
Could you please add volume control to this block? The constant Refinery noise next to my cockpit starts to give me a headache after a while. Also the volume is amplified the more of these dusters I add to my ship.
Fellpower 5 Feb, 2022 @ 10:52pm 
there nare more errors. i cant start the server, because stone duster is not working

Working fine here
Nikolas March  [author] 5 Feb, 2022 @ 4:21pm 
that error wont stop the mod from working... the DS doesnt actually care about textures... and the game client will default to the game's texture folders for that file, unless, they have changed how it works, or just plain broken it lol...
Fellpower 5 Feb, 2022 @ 8:53am 
after the last patch, its not working anymore on our server. there some files missing.

Kaito 3 Feb, 2022 @ 7:54pm 
I think these could do with an inventory size increase, so they can keep up with 10x refinery speed.
