Setting up a new PC is taking yoiu so long. But okay, I try to understand. It'll take some time to rewrite the code and update it. Take your time.

1.6 UPDATE PLEASE!

1.6 update coming?

@Banana Fiasco: I actually DO have a repo for this mod! But as mentioned in my previous comment, I'm setting up a new PC so I won't be able to update the mod yet.

My GitHub username is the same as here, so you can find it at: github.com/CiXwOw

Sorry everyone! I am in the process of building a new PC, and will update this as soon as I am done!

Was able to dig through what was going wrong. The way the stone campfire is defined changed in the new version of VFE. The xpath for the patch to the campfire in "1.5/Patches/VanillaFurnitureExpanded.xml" needs to be changed from:
/Defs/ThingDef[defName="Stone_Campfire"]
to:
/Defs/ThingDef[@Name="VFE_FirepitBase"]

I wasn't able to find a git repo for this mod to submit a pr, as realistically there's more that needs to be done there, but that resolves the error for the time being.

Not the modder, but: those red errors should only be an issue if you need the braziers to link to other items as a meditation focus. Otherwise I think everything will work fine with the updated VFE.

Dear modder , with latest vanilla furniture expanded updates , there pop up some red error:

@Psyckosama: Take a look at this mod "Onimods - Colored Fire". Somebody asked to add support for theses braziers, and the author said they'd look in to it. That was in April, so maybe you could ask them again?

Why not just make a green brazier? Let the user choose.

@Yunkari Whiteclouds: Should be fixed now.

@Yunkari Whiteclouds: Thanks for letting me know! I'll take a look at it today.

@Psyckosama: You're absolutely right, and I agree that it would be cool (green is my favourite colour), but my primary objective for my Helixien Gas mods is to adhere to the Vanilla Expanded teams design goals.

I've got a bug when i use the "better pyromania" mod where pyromaniac pawns will go watch the fire and ignore doing anything else. They do it so much that they starve to death.

Well, my thought on the issue is that in chemistry, there are actually compounds that produce green flames. For example, both Copper and Boron fires are bright green while ammonia is said to produce a greenish yellow flame. My thought was just it might produce one as a side effect of basic chemistry.

Psyckosama: This has been discussed in the past. On the one hand, the lamps glow green, but this could be explained by colouring the glass housing of the lamp. On the other hand, objects with open flames like the crematorium and smelter burn with orange flames. This seemed the more "concrete" answer, so it is the one I have stuck with. (This was last discussed ~2 years ago, and I don't play as much as I used to, so if anything has changed since then that I haven't considered, please let me know)

One suggested change... change the fire and light cast from orange to green to fit in with the rest of the Helixien gas objects.

Or at least an option. Maybe a toggle?

Added a Harmony patch for Better Pyromania. It should now be 100% compatible. Please let me know if there are any issues!

Updated to 1.5

Have a problem with helixen gas braziers. They don't count as lit but they are connected to gas network with connected tanks and there is animation of fire on each braiser. I guess it is some mod conflict error or something. If someone had that problem what can i do?

ok, figured it out. just needed a gas tank somewhere in the pipe network for ANY helexian stuff to work, even when that stuff is hooked directly into the gas pump source. i feel kinda dumb now ngl ;-;

Anyways, sorry for the pointless error report!

@Mom against Anime - Trans Rights: I just ran a quick test and everything appears to be working fine. It sounds like you might have a mod conflict.

seeming to have issues with the braziers. they'll connect to the pipe network alright, but have no option to turn on.

@Noisy Koi: Good idea! Done!

Also, Braziers are now compatible with VFE Empire titles!

could I mayhaps ask that you move the braziers to the pipe networks architect tab?

@Solx: It looks like the Royalty patch is failing, but it doesn't specify why. Do you have both of this mods requirements (Royalty and VHGE) or use any mods that would make changes to Royalty? In particular it's nobility titles and requriements?

How can I fix this?

Thanks for updating!

@Noisy Koi: I considered it, green is my favourite colour. But any gas appliances in the base mod with open flames are orange. The gas lamps are green, but it's likely the glass that's tinted. But for not at least orange appears to be the most consistent/realistic option.

is it possible to give the flame a green tint/coloration?

Please update to 1.4

Nice, much appreciated

@Taylor7500: I sure do! I'm going to try and have all of my gas mods updated this weekend!

Now that VE has moved Helixien to its own mod (and 1.4 is coming out) do you plan to update this mod?

@The Observer: I have added the defs required for compatibility, but Aelanna still needs to update the Better Pyromania code to support helixien gas. It's been a few months since it was last discussed by Aelanna, so maybe leave a comment over there to voice your interest.

There seems to be something funky going on between this mod and the Better Pyromania Mod, in that Helixien Gas Braziers do not count as fire towards the 'fire' need. Which is funny, because it conjures up images of Pyromaniacs being like 'well yeah, it's fire, it's just not the RIGHT KIND of fire'.

@Oma@Stricken: I think I've done it! Braziers warm you up outside, melt ice, and gives the mood buff to fire worshippers! I almost thought I wasn't going to be able to manage it, but then I found something wonderful in ProxyHeat's code that saved me!

That is super kind of you! I tried patching it myself. First time looking at Rimworld modding, so I am obviously not getting anywhere and thus am now also super interested how you solve it in the end.

The strange thing is that the ProxyHeat mod already has a patch for the normal Brazier to work, so I would have expected it to just work when I duplicate that patch and switch "Royality" for "Helixien Gas Brazier" in the mod search and "Brazier" for "HelixienGasBrazier" in the defName, but it doesn't. I know to little about modding and Rimworld to really debug it, so I think I just give up and trust that you are smarter than me^^

Thanks again!

@Oma@Stricken: I'd be happy to take a look at those. I'm currently working on an issue with one of my other mods (which should hopefully be fixed by tomorrow), but I'll put this next on my list.

Hey mate, thank you for your mod! I feel a bit awkward asking, but I am planning out a play-through as an order of fire worshipping monks up in the frozen north. For that to work optimally it would be amazing, if your mod would work with ProxyHeat and count as a fire for the Vanilla Ideology Expanded fire meme. Then I could litter my whole outside area with your braziers and they would actually warm my colonists and make them appreciate all the fire around.

The two mods in question are:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2365526329
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2636329500

I don't have paypal unfortunately, but if you could patch that for me I would love to send you a 20€ Steam code or something. If not, I also totally get it. Thank you!

@Draconis: I'm glad to hear it's working now! If you'd like to simplify the automate ordering process, I would highly recommend RimPy!

Yeah turns out it got moved somehow and being high on the load order caused it to no longer count as a royalty object, must have got accidentally drag and dropped. put it low towards the bottom and it works fine.

@Draconis: A quick test shows that gas braziers are still working on my end. Have you installed any new mods since they were last satisfying requirements? If so, I would recommend disabling them, confirming that it's working as intended, and then enabling them one by one (or a few at a time) to see if you can isolate the conflicting mod.

These no longer seem to be counting as Braziers for Royalty requirements, have two silver ones in a throne room and it wasn't satisfying title, removed a nutrient paste which counted as a work station and it still wasn't going so I built two steel normal braziers and it immediately counted even after I removed the gas ones, tried to flip it to just gas and no dice.

@GLVT: The crematorium is also orange.

You mean Smity and Smelter? That's because metal is red, them orange, then white when heated enough.

@GVLT: I forgot about those. But the machines with open flames are all orange.

Meaning? Their sunlamps and wall light have greenish hue.

@GVLT: Although green is my favourite colour, it's not in line with what the VE team have done, which is something I'm quite keen to adhere to.

I mean, green version of flames of course.
