Midnight Drive Systems

Описание
Midnight Drive Systems is a non-tiered thruster mod with unique balancing and custom flames using Mexpex's Thruster FX framework.

It is the first of the three planned Midnight mods ready for release. It will likely receive both new content as well as updates to existing models or particles in the near future.

This mod is incompatible with VSI Recolorable Thrusters!

Alternative version that doesn't add any new blocks, just the FX: here.

New blocks:

  • Hull thrusters, vanilla thrusters that look armored (fully sealed and airtight), but don't actually have any more health. Also comes in sloped variants, as well as a new "medium" variant of hydrogen thrusters.
  • Overthrusters, which give twice the force of a standard thruster, but still uses a proportional amount of fuel/power. These are intended to be limited by a server's ruleset.
  • Stealth thrusters, which have modified vanilla particle effects. This is for compatibility with the Stealth Drive mod, which does not hide Mexpex Thruster FX particles.
Alongside this is a rebalance of vanilla thrusters:

  • Large-variant hydrogen thrusters are no longer useless as they are in vanilla and most mods. They now give more thrust than 9 small-variant thrusters.
  • Ion thrusters have received both a direct thrust buff as well as a reduction to how much rare ingots thruster components cost, making them worth using even on warships.
  • Atmospheric thrusters had the least changes, but were still slightly buffed overall.
If you're interested in the exact stats of all of the thrusters, use BuildInfo. I highly recommend always having this mod - it's even available as a plugin!
Important Notes:

  • Thruster burn ranges are turned down significantly with this mod.
  • The particle FX in this mod were made specifically to work with Rendering Improved.
  • Due to the nature of the particle FX there are no idle flames, and they tend to visually break when looked at head-on. I will try to look into a fix for both of these.
  • All blocks currently lack LODs. This is intentional as thrusters with LODs have a tendency to simply not render; until this bug is fixed or a workaround is found there will be no LODs. No performance impact has been observed.



REUPLOADS ARE NEVER PERMITTED.
Use Ash's Mod Adjuster mod if you wish to tweak this mod for your server. I will not allow any reuploads, unlisted or not.
This includes Mod.io, do not reupload this mod to Mod.io. It won't work anyways, as the Mexpex Thruster FX Framework isn't on there.

The mod was made specifically for the Sojourn Rim community, which is a group of SE players centered mainly around an ongoing large scale survival scenario. We play plenty of other games too, and if you'd like to check out the community you can join the discord here: https://discord.gg/kK7pAVUB2v

what were the plans for this mod set?
Masterbuilder2.0 29 окт. 2024 г. в 22:06 
still makes sense
Masterbuilder2.0 29 окт. 2024 г. в 22:05 
ok what about a midnight prototech thruster?

Soon™
A "capital jump drive" was planned but the Prototech one fills that need in our community for now. Maybe it'll still happen someday.

can you do a thruster for prototech and a midnight jump drive?

Pending update for Contact.
This will rebalance the Prototech Thruster to be worth it's mass and volume, plus give it Mexpex Thruster FX.
Will also hopefully have some updated FX for the other thrusters.

Nevermind??? I guess it was the bottom conveyor port of the large warfare reactor???

So I'm not sure if it's just this thruster, but the Large Warfare Ion Stealth Thruster doesn't have proper airtightness. Hoping any airtightness issues can get fixed.

Hi, you have a version without any new blocks, but could you maybe add a another version that does the opposite? So the new blocks without the new effects. I'm using a couple of other thruster mods and they don't really fit together with the different flames. I'm making a scenario and it would be very nice for consistency.
