Better Resources

Description
Better Resources mod for Space Engineers

This mod adds a lot of new resources, ore types include: Copper, Bauxite, Lithium, Oil Shale, Titanium, Nitre, Sulfur, Wolframite and Galena. Some of the ores will give multiple ingot types when refined, for example Bauxite will give Aluminium and Gallium, Oil Shale will give Crude Oil and Sulfur, Wolframite will give Tungsten and Tin. All default "Space Engineers" planets, asteroids and the moon will spawn the new resources.

• Most ammunition will require Brass, Gunpowder and Lead, Sabots will require Tungsten and warheads will require Plutonium.

• Lithium and Lithium-Sulfur batteries will output far more power and have a larger storage capacity, but will have no initial charge (cells will not grind to scrap)

• Petrol can be made from crude oil to power petrol engines, which are far more efficient than hydrogen engines.

• Elite tools and weapons will often require Brass, Aluminium, Plastic, Rubber, Titanium and Optics resulting in better performance and less weight.

• LED lights can be made from Plastic and Gallium, which are much brighter and more power efficient.

• GaAs Solar Panels can be made from Aluminium and Gallium offering better energy harvesting performance.

• Titanium components and high-torque motors make pistons with longer ranges possible (only x2 implemented at the moment).

• Composite Plate armour made from depleted Uranium and Titanium offers strength and durability, nuclear waste from reactors will need to be processed for depleted Uranium.

• Upgrade modules will need advanced electronics to build.

• Medkits and Powerkits can be made in the laboratory equipment block.


Please see below for a full breakdown of the resources




Some of the weapons use the Scope framework, which can be found here - https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2754014019

Redistributed Ore for Better Resources can be found here - https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3483692263

Assembler flaw - You want to produce gunpowder and have all the ingredients necessary, but are getting the "Missing Items" error. This is because SE doesn't move the Sulfur into the assemblers main inventory, so you'll need to manually do this, or use an inventory manager to automate the process for you.

@RaSvet no problem, glad you fixed it.

@LurkVex the APEX update was the issue, I have just uploaded a fix.

Yes, it's a strange thing - I was playing with the Event Controllers and the hydrogen tank started behaving strangely - the indicators showed full filling, but in fact it turned out to be empty. Well, it happens in Space Engineers, I'm sorry! :)

@RaSvet Fair enough, I hope you resolve the problem.

Not at all - the hydrogen engines are working properly - it's just that the hydrogen in the tanks runs out very quickly. I have the usual mods for my walkthrough. This time I added only two new ones - Better Resources and Scarce Resources. I was confused in the description by the mention of the inefficiency of Hydrogen Engines. But I understand your distrust, and I'll try to check more closely, in case it turns out to be some kind of strange combination of circumstances.

@RaSvet You may have the wrong comments section, this mod doesn't alter the hydrogen engines!

Finally, space technology has developed to amazing perfection - hydrogen engines no longer exist in gravity! I made a regular hydrogen-powered drilling rig that I had flown before. This ship needed to refuel with hydrogen after two or three flights to the mine. Now, I couldn't even take off from my base - the ship just fell to the ground. It will no longer be possible to fly into space on hydrogen.

@LurkVex You're probably not an idiot, the APEX update may have broken something, I'll have a look when I get the chance. The mod you've listed is for Industrial Overhaul and won't be compatible.

By the way, how is it compatible with this mod? https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3427845884
LurkVex 13 Oct @ 1:11am 
Then either I'm an idiot or something in the mods is conflicting with each other, since after 10 hours of testing, neither components nor resources appeared there.
