Mechanics Station

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... in the beta of the Occupational Upgrade, a prototype of a Mechanics Station was introduced, with which engineers could improve the performance of various buildings. But later, for some unknown reason, Klei abandoned this idea.

Now the Mechanics Station is back.

• Requires research Refined Renovations
  
• Requires 200 kg of Metal Ore
  
• Requires (not mandatory) a room: Machine Shop
  
• Duplicants must possess the Improved Tinkering trait
  
• Produces Custom Parts to improve building production efficiency
  
• Requires 5 kg of Refined Metal per use
  
• Increases work speed by +50% for autonomously working buildings such as Electrolyzer, Polymer Press, Oxylite Refinery, etc.
  
• Increases work speed by +100% for duplicant-operated buildings such as Rock Crusher, Metal Refinery, etc.
  
• Effect duration is two cycles
  
• Effect duration is Increased by 5% per Machinery attribute level
  
• Effect time remaining does not expire if the building is idle
  
• Beer Not Included
  
• Duplicants can improve the efficiency of buildings in any room, even not near the station
  
• However, you must first allow them to do this by clicking on the Allow Tinker button on these buildings.

You can сonfigure this mod via the Main menu -> Mods -> Mechanics Station -> Options
You can adjust the following parameters:

• Work speed boost for autonomously working buildings
  if you set this parameter to more than +66%, the Oxylite Refinery will not be able to operate at full capacity due to the limited capacity of the Gas Pipe
  
• Work speed boost for duplicant-operated buildings
  
• Effect duration

May be compatible with other mods that add new buildings.

for modders: compatible if your building uses both EnergyConsumer and ElementConverter components (work speed +50%), or ComplexFabricatorWorkable component (work speed +100%).
not compatible if your building uses ElementConsumer, ElementEmitter, BuildingElementEmitter, etc. components or own hard-coded element conversion.

In case of problems with this mod:
a) First of all, make sure that your game really uses the latest version of the mod.
Use the Mod Updater to force the game to update mods.
b) Then please open an issue on the GitHub[github.com] And remember to attach the game logs.

A local download for this mod is also available on GitHub[github.com]
