Does this work for 1.4?

Haha @Argón, I got here eventually too. Not exactly what I had in mind but beggars can't be choosers. Thank you all for the great mods and sharing your works with others.

Hey! This is neat, I was actually being asked for this and it is good that someone made it already :D

can you make this work with salt meat 2.0?
2.0 now dont need VEC, it have his own salt

This made me laugh so fucking much, def trying this mod out.
yarnosh 14 Oct, 2021 @ 10:31pm 
And I don't even need the salt. I just want magic ponds.
yarnosh 14 Oct, 2021 @ 10:30pm 
I'm getting this mod simply because the preemptive responses make me laugh. Magic Ponds? Yes. I want magic ponds.

Little bug with these I've just found:

They block windmills' wind. Which is patently absurd.

All you need to do to fix this is add <blockWind>false</blockWind> to the building's thingDef.

Hi ! just for you know I notice your keys.xml doesn't work, the phrase "Must be built on shallow ocean water" doesn't appear, it's EP.MustBeBuiltOnWater which appear if we try to put evaporation pond in the wrong place

great news !!
OptimusPrimordial  [author] 26 Aug, 2021 @ 6:32pm 
Good news everyone! Taranchuk updated the code now your salt doesn't spawn forbidden.
Vylixan 9 Aug, 2021 @ 11:52pm 
I agree with a few others: t'd be nice if the salt wasn't forbidden by default so as to lower micromanagment of just salt. not sure if that is easy to do, though it saves some work if you have a bigger colony :D
OptimusPrimordial  [author] 9 Aug, 2021 @ 10:06pm 
Sure.

As ShrubNinja mentioned as well, it'd be nice if the salt wasn't forbidden by default so as to lower micromanagment of just salt

I just want to add that salt pans will still work in environments with no sun/light because water naturally evaporates. It will also work in cold environments because of a process called sublimation where ice directly evaporates into a gas (example: the mist that comes off an ice cube). It all just takes a lot longer without the sun as a heat source. You can also just boil down the sea water and get salt also.

It'd take more coding work than I'm prepared to pay for, maybe if someone else wants to chip in on the modding discord.
ShrubNinja 29 Jul, 2021 @ 3:57pm 
Is there a way to make it so the salt isn't forbidden when it appears?
KOTEŁ 27 Jul, 2021 @ 10:54pm 
And you know its hard to move on 1.3 with 421 mods
KOTEŁ 27 Jul, 2021 @ 10:52pm 
@OptimusPrimordia so maybe you know mod for fix this new animal system?
OptimusPrimordial  [author] 27 Jul, 2021 @ 9:33pm 
@Kotel It's time to move on.
@Marvl101 Probably but when paying a coder the goal is to hit that good enough point where the majority are happy. Adding more complexity means higher costs and more points of failure to please a shrinking additional audience.
Marvl101 27 Jul, 2021 @ 2:55pm 
Would it be possible to increase yield or lower time based on temperature?
KOTEŁ 27 Jul, 2021 @ 1:54am 
Can you take it on 1.2?
OptimusPrimordial  [author] 24 Jul, 2021 @ 2:45pm 
Yes it is.
McDuff 24 Jul, 2021 @ 7:17am 
When the salt spawns in my game it is forbidden, is this expected behaviour?
AlexJones1776 23 Jul, 2021 @ 2:43am 
Tfw can become the sultan of salt.

"it starts with a deep drill and ends with Mega Spiders."

I was on the fence but I'm installing this purely because that made me laugh.
qux 22 Jul, 2021 @ 11:19am 
great!
TurtleShroom 22 Jul, 2021 @ 7:56am 
Wait, you can get salt from the Deep Drill?
Sevrun 22 Jul, 2021 @ 7:13am 
love the pre-empt. ;) Always good to have a salt source that doesn't rob me of building material.
