Can confirm, placing connectors will crash your game to desktop. so .. don't ;)

I just made a slimed down version of this mod and totally reworked/cleaned up the behind the scenes stuff. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2287843674 Enjoy!

VS-lockon 16 Apr, 2020 @ 12:29pm 
up date please

Hi @Argual. Unfortunately due to changes in the game in Economy update there is a crash with your mod. It is going to be patched around so it does not crashes the game, but please update you Connector definitons to contain this "<Definition xsi:type="MyObjectBuilder_ShipConnectorDefinition">" :)

Hi I know that both of you have stopped updating your mods. But it seems that the new update broke the connectors in this mod. When I try to access the connector (with the engineer) the game crashes.
Will It be OK for me to try to fix this??
Rysten 2 Aug, 2019 @ 10:59pm 
Only issue I have found with this mod is some of the connector lights don't work and it doesn't take the new armor textures, easy enough to live with though :)
Sverinn 2 Aug, 2019 @ 4:47am 
Hi, the game crashes when I try to access connector pipes from console. Thanks!

This is working for me although I don't use sorters since I use the Isy's sorting script. I love the look and function of this mod, wonderful to not have extra connection points from junctions. Hopefully it keeps working (good chances since not much to break).
JDaremo Fireheart 2 Apr, 2019 @ 7:43pm 
I found that the Sorters weren't always working
c0de 16 Mar, 2019 @ 9:17am 
Does anyone know if there is any issue with this mod and the current game build? this is easily the best conv. mod. Makes the builds look amazing
here is a small taste of what i have done with this mod in past lol

Hi currently all my mods are on hold, for more see my page.

First off, I LOVE these Tubular Conveyors/Tanks/ and Storage they are all AWESOME!!
The only issue is converting all the spawned in and Blueprints into using the Tubular mods instead of the basic vanilla setups LOL.
I've converted 3 ships now and really want to make them into Blueprints being that I've also changed the ships themselves some, but still new to the game, but as they say "only one way to find out how",
Thank You for these Great Mods, hope you expand on these as pointed out with drmskr https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/profiles/76561198086336797 ...
drmskr 22 Sep, 2018 @ 11:41am 
@Argual WHen you update and polish it. Can you ad a full scroll list for all three categories? Full Air Tight block, Exposed armored pipe with corner block, Armored Pipe, And the unarmored Pipe.

Also can you inclued a couple of optional blocks, for instance the 4 port hub, I would like a couple of the ports to be placed differently... An adapter for each of the types would be nice as well..

THanks for the great mod.

One of my favorite mods, but now in 1.187 it adds a whole 2min 20 seconds to the world load time, haven't played in a while, but I don't remember it being that bad?
Bones 8 Jun, 2018 @ 1:45pm 
AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!!
Argual  [author] 8 Jun, 2018 @ 5:15am 
yes, there will be a new more polished and optimised one, but I currently dont have time to go further than planning. but around mid-summer i plan to redo most of my mods
Bones 8 Jun, 2018 @ 4:31am 
Any chance of you doing a lower polly version that we could swap this one out for? I have 3 hangars on my ship which have a ton of pipes and just doesn't look good with out them (small grid attached to large) but the lag is fantastic lol.
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1405885800
A version with a slightly lower polly count would be awesome.
GLIMMERMAN 29 May, 2018 @ 11:44am 
Ah I see, I didn't know that. Thank you for the explination and also for the wonderful mod. I am building a space station and using these pipes and the tank mods all over the station.
Argual  [author] 29 May, 2018 @ 11:40am 
They do not have lights. SE was made with conveyorlines and conveyors in mind only, Only a conveyorline with 2 ports can have lights. The rest are conveyors, and conveyors have no lights.
the idea is, how would you know if a 3 end conveyor is connected properly? It can work with 2 connected port just fine. That is also the reason why they arent hollow.
GLIMMERMAN 28 May, 2018 @ 4:13pm 
I have come across multiple blocks that have issues with their connection lights. In particular the ones that come to mind are the T's and the Corners which have the 3 connection points.
CommanderRick56 2 May, 2018 @ 11:15pm 
ah ha! That did it. Thank you!!!
Argual  [author] 30 Apr, 2018 @ 1:45am 
Try going in your AppData/Space Engineers/Mods folder, and delete everything in it. That should make the game redownload the files next time you load a world with the mod. Sadly I can't do much about local issues :/
CommanderRick56 29 Apr, 2018 @ 7:46pm 
Your mod will not show up for me. I have tried deleting the mod files and redownloading. Can you please help!?
ChaosOrder 29 Apr, 2018 @ 7:43am 
my game never loads when i use this, just sits on an infinite load screen :(
Argual  [author] 21 Apr, 2018 @ 4:07pm 
But ejectors are only connectors that can not transfer items. So you can easily use connectors as ejectors :D
Bones 21 Apr, 2018 @ 3:52pm 
Love the mod, could you add ejectors for the various pipes 'n' tubes :-)
Argual  [author] 13 Apr, 2018 @ 12:41pm 
Also they arent supposed to replace vanilla conveyors. They are for decorative purposes. I especially advise not to use them where people cant see them, as they are a bit heavier on your computer due to them being round.
Argual  [author] 13 Apr, 2018 @ 12:40pm 
They are not airtight, and they arent intended to be airtight. Some of them are. The ones that do not wall off a full block are not.
BarryTGash 10 Apr, 2018 @ 9:53am 
Love the mod, thanks for the work in this. Unfortunately, I've not found an airtight conveyor - ideally I'd like to use the conveyor pipe hub (assume this one should slot in to replace the vanilla conveyor block?). I thought I saw a previous comment say that someone thought there was a mod conflict but did not say what it was and I cannot find that comment now, maybe I imagined it! Any info on this would be great, thanks.
Dking 9 Apr, 2018 @ 4:44pm 
Im having to same Problem. Where do you find the mod file?
Lmecha 3 Apr, 2018 @ 10:30am 
ok
Argual  [author] 2 Apr, 2018 @ 11:48pm 
i checked it just now, and it shows up for me. try deleting the mod file and redownloading it by entering a world with the mod chosen
Lmecha 2 Apr, 2018 @ 3:11pm 
what happened to the pipes, their not showing in G-menu, and i'm not joking, i'm retired from pranking
Argual  [author] 2 Apr, 2018 @ 2:37pm

Lmecha 2 Apr, 2018 @ 10:15am

AngryLlama 31 Mar, 2018 @ 1:20pm 
First off sorry its taken me so long to get back to you gents. i left on an extended buisness trip which prevented me from playing. Second, id like to give a big thank you too the three of you @SpaceGeek, @cybercobra and most of all @ Argual! In short, i got it fixed and it works like a champ! it was a combo of all of your solutions that helped out i think. I tried all of the suggestions i cleared my local mod cahce and then re-downloaded and viola! And because of the reduction you threw in @Argual yours was, and i swear to you the first mod in my block lists to load! Loaded even before the default blocks populated. So thank you so very much gents for finally giving me the chance to expierence the glory which is this mod! o7 Fly Safe Gents...
cybercobra 28 Mar, 2018 @ 6:44am 
@AngryLlama - I had that bug. I fixed it by unsubscribe the mods then i remove the mod file from: ...\AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Mods Then subscribe again and it work for me.
SpaceGeek 27 Mar, 2018 @ 9:05pm 
+rep 10/10 good modder - Thanks Argual!
Argual  [author] 27 Mar, 2018 @ 11:18am 
Hi, i reduced the needless detail in the icons, the load speed should be fine now. Hope this fixes it :)
SpaceGeek 26 Mar, 2018 @ 7:49pm 
@AngryLlama - I've noticed this problem and I know whats causing it: the menu needs to render the block preview icons. This can take a while. I've noticed that leaving the G menu open for a long time helps, also changing graphics detail while in game can do it too. I haven't scienced it out to have a definite solution.
AngryLlama 26 Mar, 2018 @ 4:00pm 
Ok so I'll start by saying I am aware that 99% of this mods users don't have this problem BUT. I have tried numerous different meathods of getting this mod to appear in my G menu and nothing is working. I have even tried running this mod alone in a fresh game and it's just not showing for me. I can get tanks, storage and tunnels to load up no problem, both alone and collected. Just not the pipes! Now. I'm not, by any means asking the author to write code just for poor little old me. What I am inquiring about is if anyone out there may have some guidance or a hint even a crumb of information that might lead to me figuring this situation out I would be so appreciative. I would love to use this mod. I hate vanilla conveyors lol. Thanks in advance gents.
liquidream_gt 9 Feb, 2018 @ 4:16am 
it works now thank you :)
Argual  [author] 9 Feb, 2018 @ 1:43am 
Update: Changed the minimum welding requirements, so you have to weld up the blocks to the outmost interior plate layer to make them function. The last steel plate layer is still optional.

If you find any blocks (unlikely tho) that can't be welded or are placed instantly, pls post a comment :) I had to change 60+ data files, so there is a small chance.
Argual  [author] 9 Feb, 2018 @ 1:41am 
@liquidream_gt

I analyzed all the information you have given (it was a tremendous amount, so that is why this comment is delayed), and all data points to one thing: I don't know.
liquidream_gt 22 Jan, 2018 @ 7:49am 
dont work for me ? why
R_Oerich 11 Jan, 2018 @ 3:15am 
Graat MOD you have created. I really brings more diversity to my build. Just a question are you planning on more version of the square Block types? Corners a T-pieces maybe?? really missing these. But still A GREAT MOD, thanks for making the game better
Danielczech 6 Jan, 2018 @ 9:58am 
thx
Argual  [author] 3 Jan, 2018 @ 4:48am 
Yea, they have around 1.5 times more than the vanilla conveyors. Mostly it is due to them being round, not square.
