[WYD] Reinforced Walls Reworked

Description
A continuation of the Reinforced Walls mod, formerly by Kinetictail. Adds thick walls that can take a pounding, and resist explosive damage. Also includes embrasure versions that allows gunfire through.

Please note that in order to make this viable for 1.5 I had to re-write the mod since iunno how those assembly things work D: Therefore any pre-existing reinforced walls are likely to break*, so if you can deconstruct them in 1.4 (you'll need to revert to a beta for this now) you'll recoup some resources.

The old version of the mod included:

Industrial technology -Reinforced Walls

Reinforced Walls = 15 stuff + 5 steel = wall of 900hp
Embrasures = 15 stuff + 5 steel = wall of 900hp

While the fundamentals behind this idea have been kept, the mod has been reworked for additional balance. The base material cost and hp have been altered to reflect the purpose and design, and additional walls and technology have been added:

Medieval technology: Fortified Walls
Fortified Walls = 20 stuff = wall of 900hp
Fortified Embrasures =15 stuff = wall of 675hp

Industrial technology Reinforced Walls
Reinforced Walls = 12 stuff + 5 steel = wall of 1200hp
Reinforced Embrasures = 8 stuff + 5 steel = wall of 900hp

*Tested this on 1.4 swapping from Kinetic's version to my own. The walls remained, although they were in need of repair given my version has a higher heath pool. So maybe duplicate your save files, and test it out first. (There is a one-off error report about the research since it changed, but that can safely be ignored)

Now with My Own Little Stronghold and My Own Little Fortress achievements! (requires Vanilla Achievements mod)

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3542377046 this is the mod if it helps

@Daklin - you might be right, I didn't really look into the Angled Hull Expansion mod. But if the game does not allow for vanilla walls to utilise the feature, I don't believe allowing modded walls should be able to either - it would just be weird.

Unless such a mod was specifically designed with spaceship crafting in mind, and then it's whole another ballgame.
Daklin 2 hours ago 
Ah ok.

The way the Angled Hull Expansion mod describes itself I thought it made it easy to set it up by adding a code extension to something and it was foundational code to add that functionality. I dont know much about modding though so I'm probably wrong, thought I'd at least ask. thankyou for replying though
Monkey Magic  [author] 3 hours ago 
@Daklin - Nah, that functionality only works for the ship hull by design, I imagine. Currently, not even viable vanilla walls (such as steel) are granted angled walls. TBH, I'm really kinda hoping that the devs will relax the conditions, and allow angled walls as part of the base game, not just spaceships. Seems kinda weird to not allow buildings on the surface to build diagonally now that they have the code for it.

If they do that, it won't be an issue for modded walls either.

are you planning to add angled wall compatibility utilizing the Angled Hull Expansion mod which allows modded walls to work like grav ship hull walls?
Monkey Magic  [author] 7 hours ago 
Cool, lemme know if you see any others doing that. Like I said, I fixed them all locally (probably, I have like 70+ mods D: ) but iunno if any others failed up update the capitalisation of the common folder.
Spelllord 7 hours ago 
Yeah now its capitalised.
Thanks. :steamthumbsup:
Monkey Magic  [author] 7 hours ago 
Oh, don't worry about that texture, it's just the icon that shows up when your world is loading. It's nothing important to worry over. If you are playing on Linux , or SteamDeck you are probably having the capitalisation issue.

Hmm, looks like I already went ahead and fixed that for all my Mods locally, but Steam has this issue where it will not update if the only change is a file/folder's letter case. Hmm, lemme try something first...

EDIT: Okay, so I went ahead and created a dummy file to try and fool Steam into thinking the mod has had an actual update. Iunno if this will work for you Linux users - try unsubbing and resubbing too - but if it still does not you can fix it yourself by opening your local files (you can do this from the mod selection screen) and renaming the file "common" to "Common."

That will solve the issue ^^

There is no Conflict.
1. Its happening even its the only mod loaded
2. An "Could not load Texture2D at `Things/Building/Icon/WYD...` in any active mod or in base recources" Error ist not high enough that its an Conflict.

I have an idea why its happening now für me and not eralier, I switched back to the Linux version today, it can be that there is a different handling.
And I have seen from a rushed view that most mods I use do there Textures not in Common but in /.

@Spelllord - What are you talking about? If there was an error with the texture file path, it would be throwing up red errors stating as much. I would never have uploaded a mod in that state. The mod is working fine.

If you are having an issue, please consider your mod list, and look for a conflict. Try the mod on its own, and you'll see there fault does not lie here. I always enable this mod in my own runs, and there has never been a problem.
