Description

Requires either Dubs Bad Hygiene AND/OR Dubs Central Heating!

CONTENTS

Adds a water boiler for Dubs Bad Hygiene that uses gas from Vanilla Helixien Gas Expanded.
Patches name of the existing gas boiler from Bad Hygiene to chemfuel boiler.
Compatible with Dubs Central Heating! Dubs Bad Hygiene is not required if you have Dubs Central Heating installed, but they can be used together! (See Dubs Central Heating about how the two work together)

DETAILS

Helixien gas boiler is equivalent to the electric boiler from Bad Hygiene and produces the same amount of hot water. Also includes power modes, thermostat overrides, etc.
Balance is based on other VHGE utilities, meaning that it generates the same amount of hot water as its electric counterpart, but for far less gas.
Original Bad Hygiene gas boiler was renamed to chemfuel boiler via XML patch and is otherwise untouched.
Textures are edited textures from Bad Hygiene.

KNOWN ISSUES

As this mod supports Dubs Bad Hygiene AND/OR Dubs Central Heating, dependency cannot be enforced for either in the About.xml file. Instead, an error log will be displayed on start-up if both DBH and DCH are missing. If a save is loaded without either dependency installed, the boiler will not appear in game (it's def won't be loaded).
Currently the way in which gas pipes connect to the boiler looks bad from some directions/orientations. I was strongly advised by the RimWorld discord to not attempt to patch the pipe connection behaviour due to potential performance issues.
The best solution currently is to use an underground pipe for any pipes directly adjacent to any Helixien boilers.

OTHER MODS

Helixien Gas Brazier: A brazier for the Royalty DLC that is powered by helixien gas.
Helixien Gas Production: Adds a large smithy and large stove power by helixien gas.
Underground Pipes Rebalance: Adjusts Vanilla Expanded pipes to match Owlchemist's Underground Pipes mod.
VFE Spacer AddOn: Adds more Interactive Table sizes to Vanilla Furniture Expanded - Spacer.

This sort of works with DBH in 1.6; While it provides heat for things like showers you can't adjust the amount unlike the electric boiler so it'll be stuck providing only 250U of heat. Hoping for an update soon.

I saw August 10, then I saw the year. Regardless looking forward to the update whenever it happens!
