@elementalblaze79 you could take the model from the Small ship megamodpack
elementalblaze79  [author] 20 Aug, 2020 @ 12:13pm 
@everyone, due too I 1st made this to offset the use of my jetpack, I've since learned how to not use my jetpack(mostly by doing the no jetpack challenge when they added magboots) I can make a bottle of hydrogen last me over 3 IRL days in space & I don't need/use my jetpack on planets(yes, building can be a pain but it feels more real) so this mod will stay on the workshop for all to use but I will not be updating nor adding to it but if you want to update or use any part of this mod just please give me just a small shout out in your mod description!
elementalblaze79  [author] 20 Aug, 2020 @ 12:13pm 
@Space_engeneerTV, Due too I'm unsure how to model & don't have the time to learn, I used Keen's O2 Farm model file which tells the game how large the model should be which I'm unsure how to edit!

@Quickblood611, Sorry for the late reply but I'm not sure in why it was doing this for you! On my end it works normally for not sure if one of the updates broke it while another fixed it for me without me knowing so the only thing I can say is try loading the mods in a different order!
Alus | Herrscher of the Void 20 Aug, 2020 @ 11:13am 
can you make the small ship block size 3x1x1 too? that big i unusable exept if you build a really big ship

I just left the game running for 6 hours with 2 high powered farms on rotating solar array for station that has no thrusters with 4 tanks. All of the tanks show they are getting 250L a minute but their volume is showing 0 for all of them.
elementalblaze79  [author] 25 Aug, 2019 @ 5:48pm 
also those numbers are what the hydrogen farms will make at max in direct sunlight, if you don't have them on a solar tracker they will not always produce that amount!
elementalblaze79  [author] 25 Aug, 2019 @ 5:45pm 
If it needs updating & if I can figure it out then yes but due too I'm not seeing any problems in me nor my friends worlds, I truly don't see an update coming! I wanted a lightweight mod to add hydrogen to offset the jetpack usage back when KEEN changed how the jetpack works, so I won't be adding custom models! It just uses the in-game's version of the O2 Farms model so if they rename that model, I'll have to edit the code a bit! Also, if they change the amount power needed I might change that too! The standard one makes Hydrogen at the same rate as the in-game Oxygen Farm(ie: 0.03 liters per sec) & the High Powered version should be 10 times the amount(ie: 0.3 liters per sec) but use 20 times more power & require more parts, & for all who wants to run a hydrogen powered ship, you'll need more then what you can lift to stay up!

Are you still Updating this mod?
elementalblaze79  [author] 31 Jul, 2018 @ 8:41pm 
Sadly I'm not sure how to change it from saying, "oxygen output" but I think it's hard coded to say that! It does work on my end still, but the normal Hydrogen Farm does take forever to fill a large ship hydrogen tank! 1 Hydrogen Farm will take roughly over 40 hours to fill one large ship Hydrogen Tank! the Mk II version is 10 times faster & was added to make others a little happier but as I stated above in description, I only added it to offset the Hydrogen use of my jetpack on my Space Engineer! Now I find that I don't even need it due too Mag Boots which are now in the game! But I won't be removing it for as long as people use it then well, have fun!
Torres 30 Jul, 2018 @ 6:36pm 
Hi there it reads as "oxygen output" instead of Hydrogen, will it still work? cheers great mod in space!
elementalblaze79  [author] 27 Nov, 2017 @ 3:44pm 
the terminal is coded in another area & I haven't found out how to change it at this time! & for as the interfacing them as O2 farms, not sure, haven't tried playing with them that way, but if you do try let me know ok!
Michael Dodds 25 Nov, 2017 @ 1:54am 
Does the game see your hydrogen farms as oxygen farms? They do output hydrogen but in the terminal it actually states oxygen output instead. I'm wondering if this will let me interface with them as an oxygen farm which would make things easier. I'll look for the script too, thanks.
elementalblaze79  [author] 23 Nov, 2017 @ 5:05pm 
I think there is a program block script that turns batteries on & off by way of solar panels, & I think you just need to adjust that script to also turn the farms off too! Hope this helps!
Michael Dodds 22 Nov, 2017 @ 2:48am 
Howdy. This is a great mod. Is there a way that I can call these up in a script? I'd like to write a script that takes either the level of sunlight exposed to OR the hydrogen outflow from a large block high powered hydrogen farm and make it trigger certain hydrogen farms to turn off to conserve power in low light conditions. I just don't know if these blocks have that ability as I don't know how to call them in the code like 'IMyHydrogenFarm'?
elementalblaze79  [author] 7 Aug, 2017 @ 3:04pm 
Ok, the only things I see that are causing problems so far, 1st you must own both the farms & tanks or they must be shared with you! if either ownership are set to none or aren't shared to you, the H2 Farms will not fill the H2 tanks! 2nd, the H2 Tanks take way longer to fill then the O2 Tanks, the normal H2 Farm produces the same amount of H2 as the O2 farms! 3rd & lastly, some mods are not compatable with my mod! Any mod that edits the H2 there is a high chance that there will conflict with each other!
elementalblaze79  [author] 7 Aug, 2017 @ 2:41pm 
ok, I'll take a look at this, thanks for letting me know!
KLear 6 Aug, 2017 @ 12:52pm 
this is currently not working. The H2 farm .. is producing O2
elementalblaze79  [author] 29 May, 2017 @ 8:01am 
sadly Skallabjorn, I don't have the means to properly make or adjust the models! when making mods for nearly any game you must make the model's size in the editor or use current models that are already there! the models that are being used are the in-game models which I have no control what they look like nor the size of them, so when Keen changes them, these models change automaticly! making a small grid 3x1x1 block would be nice but also would mean I would have too make a custom model just for it & again at this time I don't have the means to do so, I'm sorry that I'm currently unable to add/change the small grid one due too this!
Skallabjorn 27 May, 2017 @ 7:54am 
woould love to have a small block 3 x 1 x 1 hydrogen farm ( like in the small block mega mod pack there is an oxygen that size )
SolarFlare1234 4 May, 2017 @ 12:28pm 
Was going to download but you have a small ship version. Maybe have the Small Ship one in a different mod?
elementalblaze79  [author] 18 Feb, 2017 @ 10:28pm 
Mind ya, when I mean combat against is for your suit, not your ships! the 1st version only had a very low powered, roughly the same power usage is the Oxygen Farm with the same production rate but due too the Hydrogen Tanks are way bigger then the Oxygen Tanks, they do fill up slower!
elementalblaze79  [author] 18 Feb, 2017 @ 10:22pm 
Thank you for the statement! The only reason why I made this mod was to combat against the hydrogen use due too there was no option to turn it off or not in the wrold settings! & for those who question if it does work I have added a video which has been uploaded to youtube & linked here in the video/picture list!
sabennett60 18 Feb, 2017 @ 10:08pm 
Not ceative. I play survival unless I am checking on something that I have problems with. I will have to retry your mod . As i said, I think it is a great addation to the game.
elementalblaze79  [author] 18 Feb, 2017 @ 9:48pm 
also, I saw in creative, the o2 farms didn't even work so I think you might have to check 1st if you are in creative or not!
elementalblaze79  [author] 18 Feb, 2017 @ 9:47pm 
well as I 1st tested you don't need an o2 tank for this to work! but yes, a few people had problems with my mod & another one but I'm not sure which mods where the problem! this was my very 1st mod I built & truly, I have no idea of how to check which mods will work with this mod or not! I only checked this mod only added to the list of mods for the world & due too there are so many mods out there, I have no idea where to start! I am at this time uploading a video to Youtube with the build version showing that it is working for those who don't believe me!
sabennett60 18 Feb, 2017 @ 9:37pm 
Thank you for the quick response. Do you also need an oxygen tank installed for it to work? Had that problem with another mod.
elementalblaze79  [author] 18 Feb, 2017 @ 9:30pm 
ok, for what I see, if I'm in Creative it doesn't work at all in either version as to with the o2 farms, but having 6 high powered h2 farms, it takes about a min or so to fill a small ship h2 tank to about 0.1%! but again, depends on what other mods you have installed in your world or are you in creative or not!
elementalblaze79  [author] 18 Feb, 2017 @ 9:10pm 
Well, many people have complained that it is to slow, even though if you use the more powerful version & if you are trying to fill multiple large ship/station hydrogen tanks! But then again a good few are even having the trouble with my mod due too they have another mod that uses the same names/functions & I'm fully not sure if my mod should be at the top of the list or at the bottom! I'll try my mod set by it's self! in the dev build to see if it is true but I'm not sure if I'll be able to fix it even if it's broken or not!
sabennett60 17 Feb, 2017 @ 8:05pm 
Does not seem to work in the development branch. Liked the idea though.
elementalblaze79  [author] 10 May, 2016 @ 9:19am 
Sadly, this may break my H2 Farms mod, so everyone who still wants to still use my mod, they will have to remove my H2 Farms in SEToolBox then use "Space Master" to add them back in! Sorry, for any troubles I add to everyone else who is not having troubles with my mod!
elementalblaze79  [author] 10 May, 2016 @ 9:08am 
I went ahead & renamed the IDs of my H2 Farms to see if that will help with the people who are having troubles with my mod not working! Having the names "HydrogenFarm", "HPHydrogenFarm", "LargeBlockHydrogenFarm", "LargeBlockHPHydrogenFarm", "SmallBlockHydrogenFarm" & "SmallBlockHPHydrogenFarm" where to general & could be copied easily by accident, so I changed their names by adding this mod's steam ID number hoping this will help!
elementalblaze79  [author] 10 May, 2016 @ 8:44am 
Well i see no problems with those kinds of mods, the mods I meant is ones that add H2 Farms to the game!
Torres 10 May, 2016 @ 8:08am 
the other hydrogen related mod I have is the hydrogen efficiency one that makes it lasts x20 times as vanilla and the custom hydrogen tanks that make em like the oxygen tanks and are smaller for small ships, never had a problem with those and this mod before.
elementalblaze79  [author] 9 May, 2016 @ 6:16pm 
Due too I'm very new to modding, & this is my first actual mod & not consept ideas, I don't think I'd be that good at seeing which mod is the one causing the issue! The only thing is if you have multiple H2 farm mods that is what I would start with due too even though there "can" be an infinite number of items added to the game, there may have id names that are the same which could cause an issue! But then again, SE could have a limit on how many items that could work in-game so that could also be a possibililty!
Torres 9 May, 2016 @ 7:36am 
Manually removed, re-subscribed... now I do have a loooong list of mods, I'll be back as soon as I find where to place it in the mod list (top-bottom) see if it works.

If we posted our mod list would you be able to pinpoint or at least tell which one would be the root cause? I'm gonna start by trying what I first typed, going to reduce the amount of mods I have installed and don't use and wait for your feedback... I hate the idea of this mod not working, when you go multiplayer and need hydrogen the floating ships glitch or the "another person is using that ship" is killing everything I use to mine ice. Farms are the way :D
elementalblaze79  [author] 8 May, 2016 @ 11:14pm 
& as a quick note, I'm unable to test this in multiplayer due too non of the multiplayer worlds I play on have this mod installed due too they claim it's to op & the rig I have can only handle single player or if I log into someone else's world! Again sorry for any inconvenience!
elementalblaze79  [author] 8 May, 2016 @ 10:31pm 
So the only thing I can conclude is that another mod maybe overwriting this mod &\or maybe is in conflict with this mod &\or the loading location in the mod's list for the world that you have it maybe in question! but due too I can't reproduce the problem, I'm unable to fix it! The only things I can say is to try & re-donwloading it by first finding it in your mods folder & deleting the file "540088897.sbm" (which is this mod's file name & don't just unsub then resub, that won't delete the file) & then restart your world! If that doesn't fix it, you may have to play around with moving this mod around in your mod's list(moving it closer to the top or bottem of the list) &\or removing other mods, just try to removing one mod at a time! If you remove all the mods, you may not be able to find which one is causing a conflict!

Again, I sorry but due too I can't seem to reproduce that they are not working, the above noted is the only thing way I can help!
elementalblaze79  [author] 8 May, 2016 @ 10:31pm 
For my tests, I used for large ship & station version, 20 normal H2 Farms(& again with 2 High Powered H2 Farms) with 10 unmodded solar panels to power the system, a single unmodded hydrogen tank with the unmodded conveyors to pipe the large ship\stattion version all up & for the small ship version, 10 normal H2 Farms(& again with 1 High Powered H2 Farm) with 40 unmodded solar panels, a single unmodded tank with unmodded conveyors to pipe the small ship version together, both in a world just with the downloaded version of this mod(not the foldered version that I have that I made the mod from) & as well as in my highly modded out world & in both worlds!

So here is the Bad news! It seems to work but at a slower rate(about half to 3\4 the speed)
Torres 7 May, 2016 @ 7:09pm 
Yep I just tried it and it's not working for me. Made a nice conveyor'd tube tower with rotors and added the solar script and even though they were perfectly aligned with the sun there was absolutely no production at all. Well not even if you place it on the ground.
elementalblaze79  [author] 7 May, 2016 @ 7:01pm 
I'll look into it!
AndiNova 7 May, 2016 @ 2:07pm 
as with other Hydrogen Farm Mods this H-Farms dont seem to Produce Hydrogen anymore
elementalblaze79  [author] 19 Jan, 2016 @ 1:16pm 
Well Torres, hope my mod helps at least get you out of the desert! I was lucky enough that a rock near by where I landed in a forest biome had enough platinum to get back off the planet!
Torres 19 Jan, 2016 @ 1:00pm 
Good God, is this updated? I'm gonna try it and hope for the best, I'm stuck in the mid of a planet in a desert biome with no platinum for thrusters so hydrogen it is. :D
Antimaterie 25 Dec, 2015 @ 4:49am 
nice
:steamhappy:
elementalblaze79  [author] 25 Nov, 2015 @ 8:26am 
actually renaming a part in game is fairly easy, just would like keen to do so, so everyone can be on the same page!
Carch 25 Nov, 2015 @ 2:06am 
electrolosys machine would also be good. maybe something you can do with the mod ^^ (I have not modded space engineers,no iea if it's possible)
elementalblaze79  [author] 24 Nov, 2015 @ 12:35pm 
they need to rename the oxygen generator to maybe to electrolytic separator because it sounds more correct for the function!
elementalblaze79  [author] 24 Nov, 2015 @ 12:32pm 
the oxygen generator make oxygen & hydrogen by way of ice!
samcan244(73 61 6d) 24 Nov, 2015 @ 12:30pm 
ok and also how do i make hydrogen on the vanila game???
