Btw, there's a strange model artefacting on the compressed oxygen tank. There's a floating piece of metal near the base opposite the connector, which doesn't show up in the building hologram but does show up during all build stages including the complete stage. It isn't really an issue but it looks real weird when it juts out through a block.

I'm thinking of adding this to my server, looking forward to the new armored tanks!

@Zardo Thank you! We all appreciate you!
Zardo  [author] 12 Nov, 2024 @ 10:50pm 
Honestly the armoured ones have been finished for ages I've just not found the time to upload them.

I've made myself a bit of free time after work each day to update my mods so I'm slowly working through them. So watch this space!!

I second @Kitsuni's question re:armored versions.... I've actually been waiting for them before I add the mod to my new save along with Contact (seemed like a perfect matchup). I want to say this for the record. The fans of your mod are not ungrateful, we are just eager for more. We truly appreciate everything. Thank you.
Kitsuni 13 Oct, 2024 @ 10:45pm 
Any progress on the armored versions?

This is such a great mod, adds a new and better looking hydro tank with improved stats and a higher risk at exploding which i enjoy, only thing that ruins this mod and the others is the blocks visually disappearing, please fix Zardor as this is such a great mod.

ein vorschlag für einen noch grösseren stations container. wo noch viel viel mehr wasserstoff reingeht :) ich liebe diese mod, die schönen grossen tanks :steamthumbsup:
kinngrimm 19 Jan, 2024 @ 4:08pm 
some nice looking tanks you got there !
looking forward to the armoured versions :)
Zardo  [author] 19 Dec, 2023 @ 9:21pm 
Glad you like it zompireyeti! I don't mind people asking for alternatives or sg versions. I'll hopefully be active next year and be able to five this a bit of TLC
ZompireYeti 13 Dec, 2023 @ 1:21pm 
I am surprised people demand for SG version of this instead of being grateful you made this mod to share for free. >_> But I suppose that is how internet works.

Thanks for the mod. I am loving it and using it to make industrial vibe facility.

Hello, would it be okay if I modify this mod for my server? yes, it will be unlisted.
Zardo  [author] 26 Apr, 2023 @ 11:30am 
i never mentioned heavy armor- or your ships- just explained my reasons why i opted to not do SG versions of these tanks
VS-lockon 26 Apr, 2023 @ 10:27am 
okay who side it a fighter in heavy armor all my ship light armor and shields and hydrogen only thrusters the dcf hate ion and atmo makes it so there's no refueling of the ship whatsoever so not having these on a small grid kinda sucks be honest and there's some player be side just me that think ion and atmo are op so we just use hydrogen thrusters
Zardo  [author] 26 Apr, 2023 @ 9:56am 
its more that fighters rely on speed primarily- a armoured tank would hinder that as it would be much heavier- and a compressed tank would bloat a SG fighter to be heavier and bigger.

not to mention sg blocks are so fragile that a armoured tank wouldnt really help them
VS-lockon 26 Apr, 2023 @ 9:18am 
sg not necessary so I'm the only one that makes hydrogen Fighters craft for rp okay then
Zardo  [author] 26 Apr, 2023 @ 8:40am 
With these tanks I just didnt think SG were necessary- as for my other mods its dependant on either what im commisioned to make or what the server/purpose i make them for is- as alot of my work is for the expanse server SG just dont get as much love
VS-lockon 25 Apr, 2023 @ 4:03pm 
Zardos what with you makeing big grid stuff but non for small
Zardo  [author] 15 Mar, 2023 @ 2:44am 
No plans for small compressed hydro either- I have some armoured tanks to go in here but otherwise they are not on the to do list atm. I have to be selective on what i add atm as im pretty busy with commisions.

Zardo small compressed hydrogen tanks
Zardo  [author] 29 Jan, 2023 @ 1:13pm 
I have no plans to do any smaller or larger oxygen tanks.
Lockheed Martin Engineer 29 Jan, 2023 @ 10:02am 
add small compressed tanks please men
Alexander 21 Jan, 2023 @ 4:17pm 
Any plan for a Large oxygen tank comparable to the large hydrogen tanks
Alewx 8 Jan, 2023 @ 9:58am 
The uv seams could get a bit better hidden for the compressed hydrogen tanks as they are in the middle of the large panel but otherwise great work. love them.
TH3GR3YB3ARD 12 Dec, 2022 @ 4:21pm 
These models are outstanding and I love the armored tank idea. Allows for more exposed tanks which really helps in aesthetics.
Thundercraft 3 Dec, 2022 @ 3:59pm 
Interesting. I do think I'll give this a try.
These do look like very nice models. But 51 MB for just a few new tanks? Is most of that size due to very high resolution textures? I mean... I know of a simple planet mod for SE that's about that size ("Tohil" mod) and planets have hightmaps and other data.
Zardo  [author] 27 Nov, 2022 @ 7:46am 
aye I meant both- 1x1x1 tanks are too small and will cause servers a whole host of issues with the spamability so i have no plans for either LG or SG
jivaii 26 Nov, 2022 @ 2:13pm 
I was referring to a 1x1x1 LG oxygen tank, not a 1x1x1 SG tank, that's just too tiny =P
Zardo  [author] 26 Nov, 2022 @ 1:35pm 
Im hoping to do some SG tanks in the future but i doubt ill ever do any that are 1x1x1
jivaii 25 Nov, 2022 @ 3:48pm 
Could we get a 1x1x1 small oxygen tank for compact builds?

Also, any chance for some small grid tanks as well?
Zardo  [author] 27 Oct, 2022 @ 10:27pm 
The problem is unfortunately out of my league to fix, none of the modders know what the issue is and many others are suffering from it too.

It seems to pop up randomly between keen updates so its believed to be something their end, atm all we can do is hope it is fixed with the next dlc.
Stratotanker 25 Oct, 2022 @ 7:51pm 
I love this Zardo but I'm on the same team as dr.Yang.. I had to grind them down and use vanilla tanks until this issue is fixed.:sefacepalm: I'm keeping active as I REALLY want to use these awesome looking tanks you've made. Hopefully you can find the problem and get us all back up and running! :selike:
Somtuk 19 Oct, 2022 @ 7:04am 
Oh, another minor visual issue...

The initial build state for the compressed oxygen tank has this extra graphical item outside the normal hit box. It looks like a small piece of scrap metal.
Somtuk 19 Oct, 2022 @ 6:57am 
I have a very minor visual request...

If I place the large compressed hydrogen tank on its side so that the words "Hydro" are visible and in the correct orientation, the ports on the end of the cylinder are upside down (you can tell by the orientation of the control panel). Rotate the block so that control panels are proper, and the words "Hydro" on the side are upside down.
Parker Posey's Mouth 18 Oct, 2022 @ 3:58pm 
These are wonderful, and fit in beautifully with vanilla assets. Particularly fond of the compressed oxygen tank, and hope for a hydrogen tank in a similar form factor someday. Having one access port on those makes them ideal for passive storage, and makes it feel more balanced than it otherwise might. Perfect fueling station blocks!
Zardo  [author] 15 Oct, 2022 @ 8:53am 
its a rather annoying issue thats cropping up in SE atm- a reload or painting the block will usually fix it until a full game restart happens
dr.Yang 14 Oct, 2022 @ 9:14pm 
I confirm, there is a problem with the fact that when you reboot the blocks become invisible. After transferring the mod, they appear again. For a correct assessment, I removed all modes associated with hydrogen, the problem remains the same. Uninstalled the mod, didn't work for me.
Stardust 8 Oct, 2022 @ 11:51am 
Have a problem with these being invisible upon world reload, anyone else have this occur?
BlkBlazzin 8 Oct, 2022 @ 7:17am 
These are some good looking models. Thank you
Kari 8 Oct, 2022 @ 12:51am 
A QOL request, small grid of the compressed. the standard small grid options suck due to their shape, a 1 x 1 x 2 tank of o2/h2 that holds 50% more would make so many of my small grid builds just much tastier
Kari 8 Oct, 2022 @ 12:45am 
Wonderful mod, with the warfare updates and how volatile Hydrogen Tanks are

The Large Compressed h2 can take out way more blocks than a warhead
JoeSheridan 7 Oct, 2022 @ 8:01am 
Personally i don´t think the balancing is unreasonable. From my experience i say: When you have the need to store so much fuel, then you most likely already have a nice mining infrastructure to support such a material demand. Let´s just say it as it is: Getting resources isn´t really a difficult thing in SE since the Asteroids became as larg as they are today. To get the amount of gold we have today in a single spot, you would have needed at least 5 or 6 asteroids in earlier years.

I really like your idea to include gravity components to give a justification for the technological upgrades.
göksu 5 Oct, 2022 @ 2:17pm 
ask your mom that jerry
Ribbons0121R121 5 Oct, 2022 @ 1:47pm 
why do they look like they have built in landing gear
Bear 4 Oct, 2022 @ 1:15pm 
beautiful!
göksu 4 Oct, 2022 @ 6:06am 
will you go out on a date with me zardos
DeltaWing 4 Oct, 2022 @ 5:23am 
Are they more explodey?
Zardo  [author] 4 Oct, 2022 @ 5:07am 
they use between 1 and 4 gravity components dependant on the tank- this is so that they feel more like an advancement then a replacement to vanilla tanks and to also not completely replace them.
Armigus 4 Oct, 2022 @ 5:04am 
They're interesting for variety but using fairly expensive gravity generators for only a 33% compression is a bit much. Metal grids for stability is more in line for these. I'd be looking for 60% compression (24 ML for hydrogen tank) to make them worthwhile. A larger oxygen tank, say the size of a hydrogen tank, would also be nice.
