@Brandjuh[NL] All my testers report that the mod is working perfectly! It seems you don't understand how Heliport connections work. They're different from every other kind of connection in the game. You seem to be under the mistaken impression that you need to use factory connections for the Heliport. You don't. Using the bottom menu, under Airplanes -> Parking -> Heliport, that building (either 'Heliport' or 'Heliport 3x') simply needs to be placed directly adjacent to the asphalt factory (as you are choosing where to place the Heliport, the asphalt factory turns green when they are close enough) and it will automatically connect.

This modded building is completely identical to the base game's building in every way, with exactly the same code and attributes aside from the addition of 100t output storage. If you understood how the base game's asphalt factory works, you'd understand how this works as well, since it functions identically in all senses aside from the additional storage.

Sadly not able to connect helipad. No option to link helicopter to the building, and/or no output for forktruck / convayor.

oh nice!

@Waltari @Light-DelaBlue It is now fully up-to-date and compatible with all the new connection types, including helicopters! Thanks for suggesting this improvement. :)

Hello, please update it. I cant connect it to helicopters

@Arctic™ I'm very glad you enjoy it!
@KLICZUŚ My pleasure, thanks for commenting! :)
@Light-DelaBlue Thanks for the suggestion! I'll try to get around to that at some point, but I should also note that if you or anyone else wants to take this mod and further modify it in the way you described, you're more than welcome to do so as long as you give me credit for the original mod. :)

hi sorry for disturbing. but in the last update the concrete factory and asphalte one can connecte to a helicopter pad. can you enable that for your please?

than you, you are amazing

true QoL mod right there!

@hziiika I'm not certain, but I have a guess as to what might be happening here: perhaps the asphalt plant needs to have at least one worker in order for construction trucks to be dispatched to it. However, once the trucks are dispatched, even if the workers leave the plant before the trucks arrive, the trucks can still load the asphalt from the storage. Most people wouldn't notice this because most people don't completely disallow workers at the asphalt plant, so there are at least occasionally workers there, allowing trucks to be dispatched. Again, just a guess, but that would explain this behaviour, and why nobody else has had this issue.

Yep, weird. I took a screenshot. No workers - no load.

@hziiika Weird. Like I said, that works for me, and you're the only person who's told me it doesn't work for them out of more than 1000 subscribers. In any case, there's not much I can do to fix a bug I can't reproduce. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful!

I expected the construction vehicles to be able to drive out for loading with asphalt even when there are no workers. It seems that this limitation of game mechanics cannot be overcome.

@hziika Would you mind explaining in a bit more detail what you're trying to do? Are you trying to connect this factory with some sort of separate asphalt storage facility? If so, that's not necessary - this modded factory has plenty of built-in storage, and construction vehicles can pick up asphalt from this building even if there aren't workers at the factory when the vehicles are loading.

This definitely works for me, and presumably for the other 1000+ subscribers who haven't reported such a bug. That's the whole point of this mod, after all - to reduce the inconvenience that happens when your construction vehicles arrive to pick up asphalt at the brief moment when there are no workers in the plant. Are you running any other mods? It's possible there might be a conflict with something, since it seems to work for everyone else.

It looks like it doesn't work because of the game mechanics. If there are no workers in the building, the cars do not go for the asphalt accumulated in the storage.

@hziiika If I correctly understand what you're asking, the answer is yes!

Can this building load asphalt from a storage without workers?

@ossied You're very welcome!

bout time ty.

@mikhail I believe they are going to be popular! It's me who is a weirdo. :)
And you too an effort to explain your point of view and you made this darn mod!
You have something going on there! Don't stop now!
Good luck bro!

@Oolykee Thanks so much for taking the time to review my mods! Even though you don't intend to use them in your Let's Plays (which I completely understand - mods are all about personal preference!), I'm glad you see the appeal for other players!

I also subscribed to your channel, so I won't miss any of your future mod reviews.

Tangentially, I rather enjoyed hearing you pronounce my name and the words I wrote - I'm a Ukrainian Canadian who has never been to Eastern Europe, and to be honest I'm rather envious of your accent. :)

I see your point about productivity and full employment but still like the challenge of vanilla Asphalt plant.
Check it out!

@HAMMERFALL314 I'm really glad you like it! I originally made it for my own personal use and just barely decided to post it.

just FINALLY YES!!!!
