@bossbill1 lol, no worries. Enjoy!

@ Godimas ...pmsl about the cat....Thanks for the update

@bossbill1 hahaha, unintended, and thank you for pointing it out!
I'll get it looked after in a couple of days (out of town at the moment) but expect the same kind of" doubling" upgrade that the large block one got!

I found a thing .....The large lab O2/H2 generator has been upgraded But the small block version has not. Don't know if this was intentional or just missed but thought I would point it out. Loving the mod keep up the good work.

Hahahaha, had to happen eventually

Your doing keens job for them... why oh why? Intentionally making the game P2W...

Thank you for the feedback, and enjoy!

Exciting! Idk why I didn’t think about just increasing the thrust more lol. Good idea which also keeps them balanced. Excited to play around with it some more! Thanks again!

Just pushed a thruster balance pass update. Details in the change logs, and description.
I havent had a look at power/fuel costs just yet. I think thatll need to be a part of a larger update across all of the blocks. Ill add it to the todo list though.

@maxdean02 ya know, you make a good point 🤔 And a fair suggestion. Ill take a look at this over the weekend and push an update!

So I've been playing around with the mod for the last couple days, and I have a suggestion.

The upgraded thrusters provide twice the amount of thrust of the standard thrusters, BUT because of the double component cost, they weigh twice as much. This makes them barely an upgrade because the weight counteracts the thrust.

I would recommend changing the component costs for the upgraded variants, maybe even just for the thrusters. I would keep the component costs nearly the same, but increase the amount of superconductors, or other expensive components. Maybe atmo thrusters could require double the amount of motors and metal grids, while ions require double the amount of thruster components? I feel like some sort of tweak like this would keep the weight down so the thrusters remain useful.

Let me know what you think. Thanks for the mod still!

Thanks @Mckay, have fun with it!

Love the mod.
New to the game and was seriously struggling finding good uses for the Base Game versions. Now feels like there's some element of progression.

@Godimas yeah I completely agree there's so much stuff cluttering up that menu already and besides the load order fixes the issue quite nicely anyway. And I mean on top of that of the 70 mods on my server yours only conflicted with one id call that high compatibility

Thanks @maxdean02, enjoy!!

This is perfect! I've always wanted to play around with tiered upgrade packs, but this is better because the DLC blocks LOOK like they're more powerful than the base game blocks. This also gives me a reason to use the base game blocks, which I almost never did after getting the DLCs. Great mod!

@Admiral appreciate you taking a look
I think the only way around the problem would be to create completely new blocks for this mod, using the DLC art. Totally doable, but I think that would kind of defeat the purpose of the mod and just add clutter to folks G menues 😅

@Godimas Looks like no change yet but it is most definitely only conflicting with Better Resources which I've had issues with conflicts between it and several other mods as well i imagine in no small part due to just how much it drastically changes, including specific changes to the industrial assembler and warfare reactors which are the only blocks not catching the change from your mod

let me know if i can help any other way!

@Admiral, can you do me a favour whenever you get the chance:
Put your mod load order back to whatever it was before hand, and see if the Industrial assembler is still missing its Advanced tag

Just finished doing a bunch of reading, and im attempting to stop this mod from conflicting too much with others that edit base game files, without actually creating new blocks in the G menu 😅

Not sure if this will work, but it might!

yeah that all makes sense to me, I put better resources on the bottom of my list and it sorted itself out nicely!

@Admiral, thanks for that info!
Ill get that heads up added to the mods description in a little bit. And yah, thanks does make sense. Im not creating block variants, so if another mod mods the same file I am, itll come down to mod load order for whichever file actually makes the changes in game.

Ill see if I can sort out variants to avoid that issue though. Havent done that before, so no promises

i tracked down the problem!! looks like better resources makes some changes to some of the industrial blocks and atmo thrusters that overwrite the changes of this mod. as soon as i removed better resources i could see the rest of the advanced and upgraded mods

hahaha, thats one way of looking at it 😅

you've brought actual p2w to se lol

Awesome @Admiral, super happy to hear that :D

Ahhh fair enough! I didn't actually look at that I don't think despite comparing everything else with build vision lol I just noticed it didn't have the "upgraded" tag I'll take a look when I get back to my PC thanks man! Love your mod searched high and low for one like it and the guys on my server agree

@Admiral
Just double checked over here, and the Assemble Speed should be double that of the base assembler. If you have build vision installed, can you let me know what you see on the Assemble - Speed line please and thanks?

If you have 3x assemble speed set in your world, the industreal assembler should be at 600% 4x speed, it should be at 800% kind of thing

@Admiral oof, crap.
Ill double check it when I get home. Thanks for letting me know!!

Hey man!! love your mod something the game sorely always needed in my opinion and this does it perfectly!
I noticed the industrial assembler though doesnt seem to be upgraded?
