[Psycho] Ejector to Small Connector

Description
As the title suggests, this mod converts the small grid "Ejector" to a "Small Connector".
You can still eject as normal but you can also connect between them and with regular connectors.

It's a separated feature request by Rusted Droid:
"Please consider making Ejector > Small Connector [small grid] as stand alone mod. i rally like to use it with conveyor_hinge mod (as refuel cable)."

NOTE
As stated, this will enable you to connect with normal connectors and i can't restrict that so it might look odd,
perhaps with scripts i could somehow restrict it but i'm clueless about scripts. Help apperciated!
If you find yourself in need of just a conversion, there you go
but if you want a more complete feature set, i suggest to check the full mod pack:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1719695354
which also modifies the normal connectors to have a small connector compatibility mechanism and a few other neat bits.

Everything else pretty much same as vanilla.
ENJOY!

CHANGELOG
Ripped the small connector from the parent mod "Coupling Blocks v1.5.2".

I'm just glad it's still useful. 😁
Tho I agree with vanilla being best so here's hopes Keen fixes up soon. 🫡

So I dunno if anr how my mod works now.
TwitchingPsycho  [author] 17 Apr, 2023 @ 11:12pm 
Back in the day there was no small or large connector types so converting the ejector to connector worked on large ones too because I had no choice. That's why i made the coupling mod that blended large and small connector ports so it made sense and was convenient. Keen could have done the same imo.

Just so I understand correctly, this lets one use the new small connector/old ejector with other connectors?

Keeeeeee...! 🤣
Welp... Keen will eventually make some proper thingie in a couple of months... Probably. ✌️😁

That is still a mod unfortunately.

They way to do it will have to be through L.G. hinges or advanced rotors to S.G. hinges or advanced rotors. It's a PITA! But a minor one.

I mean, how you connect large grids to small grids with only small connectors? 😅
TwitchingPsycho  [author] 16 Apr, 2023 @ 1:18am 
You're welcome! Glad it was of use. Didn't check the game in a long time, is it only small to small connectors or is there a large grid with small connector block now? How do you connect large grids?
