How distance do I need for optimal wind clearance?

Hi again! I tested many factors, i checked game files, restarted, but it's still not aplly the colors... I not understand why... Did you can painting your turbine ingame? The game has so much updates after your last release, so maybe something broken?
Chipstix213  [author] 10 Sep, 2022 @ 11:51am 
That's sounds like a game error, can you try validating the files
Red Unit 10 Sep, 2022 @ 10:01am 
I tryed restart the game and now skins are working correctly. But painting still not working. I tryed use all colors but no result... I can change the color only on placing stage for starting build the colored block. But ready block aren't recolorable...

I don't understand what you mean, the material is the same as the vanilla colourable. It was made before a number of the skins were made so there will likely be bad alignment of some of those.

Hi! This mod awesome, it's help to crate a powerfull plants! But this mod have one issue - the colours and skins not working correctly - when i trying to paint this turbine, it takes only some little percent of color and skin. It's not fully recolorable, just painting stopped at 2-5% of complete... Can you fix that? Awesome work!

I've got two versions for even and odd placement. it's hard to place without a jetpack. there is also a small grid version of the vanilla turbine as well.

Sounds exactly like what I'm looking for. I hate making these huge "turbine trees" that look rather silly. I'd rather build one big massive turbine. Would love to see some 1x1x1 block versions and maybe a 3x3x3 ! Odd numbers work out nicer for the tops of tall thin masts.
Chipstix213  [author] 2 Feb, 2022 @ 12:27pm 
10 x as much
baronjutter 2 Feb, 2022 @ 10:24am 
How do the stats for this compare to the vanilla version?
Azariasz 16 Sep, 2021 @ 3:18am 
Is this thing affected by placement the same as the vanilla ones? How tall is the optimal for it? Or do i find it out for myself? XD
Ren 12 Sep, 2021 @ 11:52am 
I made poor design choices but with the centered one everything lines up nicely now. Thanks again for the mod!
Chipstix213  [author] 12 Sep, 2021 @ 10:14am 
No worries. I added in a centred version and all the block varient stuff that was missing. everything now sits under the vanilla turbine.
Ren 12 Sep, 2021 @ 9:36am 
Woo, works like a charm! Thanks for the quick fix! :selike:
Chipstix213  [author] 12 Sep, 2021 @ 3:53am 
it's fixed now let me know if you have any issues
!
Ren 12 Sep, 2021 @ 12:54am 
Thanks, Chipstix! Definitely my favorite wind turbine mod, glad to see it's still getting love from you. I hadn't seen the small grid added, I'll have to check it out.
Chipstix213  [author] 12 Sep, 2021 @ 12:04am 
I added a small grid version looks like I had a change to the large version that was untested and had broken it. I'll have it restored asap.
Ren 11 Sep, 2021 @ 6:03pm 
To add on to my last comment, I loaded in a new save with only this mod enable and it still refuses to allow placement on 2x2 blocks, in or out of creative mode
Ren 11 Sep, 2021 @ 4:58pm 
I think the latest mod update broke it a little. I can't seem to place it on 2x2 blocks now. The one I had placed fell off the tower after I loaded in. It had been working just fine for a week, only happened today after the mod update. It seems to be okay in certain spots for a 1x1 block placement but I can't get it to place on my tower now. Love the mod nonetheless, hopefully it can be fixed
Chipstix213  [author] 4 Apr, 2021 @ 7:21am 
Yeah in my day it was all uphill with no snow!
Jaeger 3 Apr, 2021 @ 4:07pm 
rofl at these kids always trying to put crap on a subgrid
Chipstix213  [author] 18 Feb, 2021 @ 8:38am 
Just the head. you get to design the tower however you like.
SalazarWindriver 18 Feb, 2021 @ 8:35am 
is the block the full tower or just the head?
Ghery 88 28 Oct, 2020 @ 6:15am 
Oh, I see. Thanks!
Chipstix213  [author] 27 Oct, 2020 @ 4:37am 
That is the base principle of wind turbines they only function on static grids. This is the same with vanilla turbines.
Ghery 88 27 Oct, 2020 @ 4:29am 
We found the problem. The turbine refuses to work if it's on a subgrid. Tested it with pistons, hinges and rotors. Do you think it's fixable?
Ghery 88 27 Oct, 2020 @ 3:43am 
Hi, we're setting up a hardcore survival server and the turbine does not seem to work, regardless of height or windspeed. Do you have any ideas?
Chipstix213  [author] 20 Sep, 2020 @ 9:23am 
You know I was thinking about that just the other day.... Now I have more to do!
Skallabjorn 20 Sep, 2020 @ 5:09am 
small block version? ( with proportionate size reduction ? )
Chipstix213  [author] 15 Jul, 2020 @ 4:30am 
I think I'm going to reduce the size I feel it's a bit disproportionate. This will hopefully help with placing issue and make it more balanced
Chipstix213  [author] 1 Jul, 2020 @ 11:33pm 
But feel free to suggest any balance issues you think this has :)
Chipstix213  [author] 1 Jul, 2020 @ 11:31pm 
No re-uploads, I'm sorry but I need to be able to fix any issues etc.
Zardo 1 Jul, 2020 @ 11:26pm 
Hey there! I love this mod great work!
I was wondering if we could have permission to incorporate this into our own modpack (Im a admin on the sigma draconis cluster) We would need to reupload due to component edits and a few re-balances.
Complete with credits of course!
Thanks for your time!
Asher 25 Jun, 2020 @ 1:40pm 
Will do, but need to fix my server atm first
Chipstix213  [author] 25 Jun, 2020 @ 1:00pm 
Let me know how you get on.😋
Asher 25 Jun, 2020 @ 12:43pm 
Yea :D
thank you @Chipstix looking forward to it ^^
Chipstix213  [author] 25 Jun, 2020 @ 11:58am 
@Asher and everyone else this should work better now. :D
Chipstix213  [author] 25 Jun, 2020 @ 8:08am 
Thanks, KptKosmit I know what to do, it just got missed. Unfortunately, the block is too large to place in survival without the centre tag.
-=KptKosmit91=- 25 Jun, 2020 @ 7:50am 
@Chipstix213
change the BlockPairName (so it doesn't replace vanilla wind turbine) and remove/change Center tag (it's causing the weird placement. That should fix the issues
Asher 25 Jun, 2020 @ 5:59am 
Awesome thank you for the fast reply and looking forward to it as it is a really great modal ^^
Chipstix213  [author] 25 Jun, 2020 @ 5:55am 
sorry, this slipped from my list I will attempt to update as soon as possible.
Asher 25 Jun, 2020 @ 5:48am 
Hey any chance on an Update to fix mod compatibility it conflicts with small ship mod pack and for some reason it replaces the Vanilla large wind turbine, unless it is supposed to in which case could you make a separate version so as to keep the other with it?
Chipstix213  [author] 31 May, 2020 @ 4:02am 
I'm sorry your experiencing issues. because of the size, it can be awkward to place.

I'm not sure what further instruction would be useful.
Halogen 30 May, 2020 @ 4:16pm 
It is a crap which you can`t build. No instruction. I don`t recomend.
Chipstix213  [author] 27 May, 2020 @ 2:10pm 
Most likely the small ship mod pack. I'll change some g menu setup things hopefully that will help
Bascselim 27 May, 2020 @ 8:36am 
These are the mods that i currently use. I added many of them after i disabled this mod. I think it may be wireless power mod. Cause you know, they both are electricity mods :). Or it could be small ship mod too, it adds lot of small blocks.

Legorobo4 27 May, 2020 @ 4:57am 
Same issue as Bascselim, I do have several of MA's mods like Stackable Turbines and the Bigger Turbines mod, best to start there. Mind you I got a lot of mods but those are the only ones that in anyway affect them
Chipstix213  [author] 27 May, 2020 @ 4:53am 
Sounds like a mod conflict, the huge one should output 1mw at peak efficiency. There is also no small grid wind turbine in the vanilla game.
