Orbital Platforms

Description
Expand your spacefaring ambitions! This mod lets you build orbital platforms, providing solid ground in the vacuum of space — perfect for extending your base beyond the planet.

- Added:


• Orbital Platform (25x Steel)
• Mechanoid Orbital Platform (25x Steel)
• Space Tile (Only works in space and requires platforms underneath) Its a tile to remove the platforms

- Requirements:


All tiles require Basic Gravship Tech!!

- Info:


Manufacturing is slow and somewhat expensive to balance the mechanics.

- Updates / Fixes


• If you find any error or inconsistency, please report it in the comments. I’ll fix it as soon as possible.

• If you know how to translate into another language, feel free to add me on Steam and we can work on a translation for that language.

– “Space” Cost Patch
Previously, space was generating unusually high costs for some reason. Fixed

– Cost balance
I change the cost of materials for build the platforms

If you want to thank me in another way ;)

@ThroatGOAT Thanks for this, I didn't realize anything but the gravship hull tile was airtight until reading your comment.

could you perchance add some sort of scanner that would give you a "suitable platform location" quest or something to spawn an empty space tile? :3

@Alpharius mmmm you need build with other kind of floor , at the moment my mod expand properties of already exist platforms , i mean , this is not a copy of the original platform , its the same entity with additional properties.

It works as you would normally remove the vacuum of space with other floors and walls of steel, you just build these platforms for the exterior or the edges to give a nicer design to the orbital bases.

@Redneck Princess Mmmm, you need a path for the pawns. In theory, you can build it from your ship or make sure there's a walkable path to the place where you want to construct.

@Alpharius Metal is vacuum sealed.

question
is there anyway to vacuum seal things you build on orbital platforms, or do your colonists to be in their grav suits at all times
