It has to be completely rewritten for b42 due to the building menu becoming quasi vanilla. I may collapse this into industrial revolution directly.

B42 pls

"Will installing this on an already existing server cause all containers to respawn loot?"

That is a good question, existing factory pieces will become containers and the containers not yet found would spawn loot. But I am not sure if known existing pieces would actually spawn loot. I think only in unexplored areas.

Will installing this on an already existing server cause all containers to respawn loot?

"thanks, good to hear"

just checked this in game and with a saw and a screwdriver I was able to take apart everything. I was using the button on the left of the screen where the furniture rotation options are.

thanks, good to hear

"unrelated but, does anyone know a mod to disassemble factory pieces?"

Let me see if I can add that. Originally I think it worked but something changed along the way.

unrelated but, does anyone know a mod to disassemble factory pieces?

Update to keep up with changes with languages from Building Menu.

I see, thank you

"Idk if its just me but most of the pieces arent showing in the building menu. Am i missing something? most sections are empty except a couple that have an item there"

You need to find the magazines or cheat with admin to know all the recipes.
There are 4 magazines needed to get all the recipes to build them.
Factory Life Magazine Volume 1: Go Conveyourself!
Factory Life Magazine Volume 2: CNC & Me!
Factory Life Magazine Volume 3: I SAW it all!
Factory Life Magazine Volume 4: Sorting out your life!

Idk if its just me but most of the pieces arent showing in the building menu. Am i missing something? most sections are empty except a couple that have an item there

"This mod has a somewhat hidden feature of storage containers, in tier form."

I'll look into it but probably not for a bit. This would cause a major overhaul of the industrial revolution mod similar to what inventory tetris would do. Glad you like it!

Also I should mention something more important: Thank you for this mod! I thought I commented on this before but I guess I didn't? I genuinely enjoy this mod and have been using it on my newest playthroughs.

Hey is there a chance I could make a request?
This mod has a somewhat hidden feature of storage containers, in tier form. It's amazing for big hoarders like myself. If you could do me a solid, and give this at least a look, I would be beyond grateful.

"I have built the large generator industry_02_71. How do i connect it to the grid? i have tried right clicking / interacting it from every square, while holding gas can and tools and scrap electronics etc. What am i doing wrong?"

You'll need to download FunctionalAppliances2 for the generator to gain the ability to make power. This mod only allows the sprite to be made in the game.

"Nevermind there is 4 magazines to collect!"

Glad you found it! :)

Nevermind there is 4 magazines to collect!

any reason it wouldn't show the machines in their category do i need to read a magazine?

All New! Industrial Revolution!!!

v1.04 released... A bunch of redundant settings and clean up by Elyon, including fixing the track lifters so you can walk under them. Thank you so much!

Updated with new factory location distributions and the generator is now one piece.

After the recent Building Menu update, I will have a new version out tomorrow that will make the silo generators a one piece 2x4 tile item and the batteryfactory and metalshop will be added to the distribution tables.

"where is the industrial revolution mod? i see the listing in your description but i can't seem to find where it is (good mod btw!)"

Not launched yet, coming soon. It needs more testing... I am rewriting the mill recipe system to it makes it easier for me to add recipes to the systems. I think I also need to wait for the next building menu update for a feature that will make new factory pieces work immediately. :) I will announce here, my other mods, and if you want a sneak peek hit the discord. https://discord.gg/dXFKS5NrbT

v1.01 launched with many bug fixes and balancing changes, new magazines for building, and new distributions on the belts for different factories and even gigamart.

I will be updating this mod in the next day or two with some increases in skills needed and recipes for The Workshop mod items that will lower some basic items while adding motors, etc.

Launched version 1.0, enjoy!
