Made an alternative to this (but both do the same thing)

In case anyone is interested in this mod:
- it uses a lua script on the client to modify the UI of the sandbox options (the stability of this in Build 41 is questionable)
- it is not multiplayer compatible (because it sits in the client and the server never sees it)

plz update

This doesnt seem to work for me. when i spawn the water and power is off automatically even if i leave the settings to 0-30

I mean it works fine but saving would be cool :l

Yeah update to this would be nice to add saving

Sandbox Mode doesn't seem to be able to save the Shutoff setting. Each time I load my custom sandbox settings I have to change the Shutoff day counter manually every time.

If i add this in to my server will i be able to turn our grid back on? We have kids at home and have very limited times to play, so we filthy casuals would prefer to just have it on to make maximum use of our playtime. I tried everything else i could find online including deleting a particular server file to reset it which no longer works to cheese it. Will it turn them back on?

wat is the max value you can fill in here, I had a high number, power still went out after 11days

Still works for me. I tested it in singleplayer and with other mods.

not working for me

Does this mod still work for the current build ?

Anyone know if this mod is working with MP dedicated servers in 41.65?

Hey is this mod compatible with the latest update? (41.65)

Is there a way to access the mod interface in game when using a hosting service? Using pingperfect and it will not show

Do you have to note days or months or years OR does it become X days no matter what you put

bigcool3571,
It absolutely works with b41 (backup your save). I am using it with no problems. I am over 6 months now in my current save. I put the maximum number that the dev mentioned a few comments down of 2147483647 (just because I believe I will live that long ). You know you have to put your own manual numbers in right? The choices become numerically available once you enable this mod. Once you start the game, you cannot change your choices anymore for that save without workarounds (but that does not have anything to do with this mod).

Yo man i've been looking for a mod like this for a long time, a way to put in a custom amount for your water + Power shutoff now i can go like 20 years without shutoff >:) Question tho, i currently play on IWBUMS 41 (I will backup my save probably got that wrong) and will it work? I've seen a couple of comments here saying it only works on older versions of the game.

Doesn't seem to work for B41, can't even enable the mod.

Can this be set to -1 so that they never shut off? Setting it to 9999999999999 causes it to shut off at the end of the first day. Is there a minimum/maximum range?

For 0-30, does 0 mean instant shutoff?

is there a mod like this for the base modes, like survivor and apocolypse?

This does seem to work fine with IWBUMS 41 but, the Blindcoders basis it uses seems to cause items from Hydrocraft 41 not to spawn on start up. any one else having this issue?

Seems to work alright with IWBUMS 41

lol...good to go then, I just wondered when I saw my default option, 1-30 was different then your screenshot of 15-150 so wasn't sure if it was working or messed up or something. thanks for the mod.

The maximum is Integer.MAX_VALUE, so 2147483647.

is there a max to set it at? Mine said 1-30 but I set it to 100 to test. was just wondering if there was a max it can be set to?

Ah, I finnaly got it, this time, it popped up and said what was required in order for it to work. Thanks.

although it might be that it's not working on teh current version at all as a lot of the menus got moved around.

bcUtils is a requirement for this mod and should activate automatically if you subscribed via the workshop.

help, it wont work, it says: require: bcUtils

not working in IWBUMS

@cbogan
No problem, glad it works!

@blindcoder

Well I'm certainly stupid.

I am a noob at this game and assumed that the mods would auto enable on startup.


Yeah they don't. Everything works fine now though!

@cbogan
Works fine for mewith stable, iwbums and vehicle brnach. Which branch are you playing on? Which additional mods do you have?

Just get a dropdown menu, no changes, restarted the game multiple times.

The water / electricity still have drop down menu in SP, and cannot set the days range in MP too. Is this mod still working?

hello, will this work in mp?

oh ok thx

@Yokel
Unfortunately, that's not possible with the way shutoff is implemented in the game. But you can set it to 2147483647 which is about 5.8 million years

oh, you should make it so -1 equals no shutoff

@Yokel:
instant shutoff.

What would happen if you set the Water shutoff and Electricity shutoff to -1

Hey man, is it possible to do a mod for Day lenght? If I remember correctly, there is no option for 45 minutes or anything like that in the options. Is it possible to do a mod to change day lenght to specific numbers? Or just 35-50 mins for example.

@Deagroth You are forgetting mountain water which don't need nasty chemicals. You can drink from all taps in Scandinavia without any health danger.

Fantastic! I love my sanbox options, and being able to customize them even more is just what I like to see, another great mod Blindcoder! Keep up the good work!

@blindcoder: Just allocate a larger buffer, what's the worst that could happen? :3

No,I like being safe. The daily grind:Eat,drink,sleep for and hour at a time so noone ambushes me in my sleep,and repeat.

@Matthew: I wish you good luck with that! From what I've been hearing once people get established and safe, they tend to die from boredom.

Personally even when I reach that point I'll keep on collecting things and scavenging.

@Matthew: That... MIGHT turn into an integer overflow... maybe.
