V1 Hydrogen and Oxygen Farms

Description
i modified the oxygen farm to produce hydrogen and also tweaked the oxygen farms to generate more oxygen. this doesn't use the stock models, rather, they use models from https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=438603755 and https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1732312500 so all credit goes to both for the amazing models.

there are two versions, normal, and slim. normal is one block thick. slim is half a block thick.

hydrogen - normal / slim::
1x - vanilla like: 100 l/s max production
2x - 1 farm equal to 8x o2 generators: 4000 l/s max production

oxygen - normal / slim::
1x - vanilla like: 175 l/s max production
2x - 1 farm equal to 6x o2 generators: 1500 l/s max production

lore behind how hydrogen is generated, reverse engineering ayylmao's technology from a crashed ufo.

*NOTE #1*
hydrogen farms will report "oxygen" being generated in its menu. no worries, its actually producing hydrogen. this is a keen bug. oxygen is hard coded as text. gas property is set to hydrogen and when you attach it to a hydrogen tank, check the tanks menu, and you will see hydrogen being pumped into it.

*NOTE #2*
if you have any issues with textures, such as pink textures, unsub from this mod. make sure you DO NOT have any other mod installed that utilizes these textures as well. then delete the v1 hydro / oxy farm workshop folder in "steam\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\" labeled as "2490439613" to ensure nothing is left over, and then resub again. sometimes downloads can get corrupted and other mods can conflict with the textures.

@tomix Yep, I forgot to mention that I had that issue in MP.

@MagicD3VIL you are correct. I had the same issue: farm says oxygen produced: xxxx amount (which is also mislabeled, should say hydrogen, since it DOES output hydrogen, but says oxygen.
Misleading, but a minor issue.)

I had a tank. Went and build the farm. Farm reports output, tank doesn't fill up.

Came here, read your comment, went back, removed and rebuilt the tank, and it works fine after that.

Maybe this is a multiplayer vs solo issue, since other people seem to not experience it. I am hosting SE on torch, so it is at least an issue in multiplayer, in my experience.

@agentlaidlaw Thanks for the mod. I've used it on and off for a couple years. If you get the free time, hopefully there's an easy fix for this issue we're running into. I've done scripting, but not modding, so you know more about it than I do.

I appreciate having it. And appreciate finding a workaround to it seemingly not working on this play-through.

@MagicD3VIL i have never had that happen it fills up any tank just fine for me.

So apparently the problem is that you have to build the farm first and the storage tanks last. If you build the other way (tanks first), the farm does not call grid refresh from where can tanks get hydrogen and it just does not work.

For some reason when I place the 1x farm on my dedicated server in a control panel it's reporting that it's producing the amounts of oxygen (hydrogen) that it should be but no hydrogen tanks are getting filled up :/

is there a way to nerf the mod it's really too op

sorry for the long delay. been caught up in other games. i finally checked to see if keen did any changes to the oxygen farm that could have interfered with any oxy / hydro production and i can't find any.

on a clean save, its working for me still.

This still works perfectly for me. Only just started using it and I have a heavy modlist, (SP) with around 250 mods active. I checked and it's (H2 farm) still outputting what it's supposed to be. ~237,000 a minute which is roughly 4,000 a second. Thanks for the awesome mod!

like ''dionisiovega'' said, since last update blocks doesnt produce anything. either oxygen or hydrogen

been using this on my MP server, and after the latest update this appears to no longer be working (get 0 h2 from any farm). Can anyone else confirm if it is still working for them?
