Multiplayer Resource Sharing

Description
Allows resources to be taken from allied players via the resource transfer window, as opposed to only being able to send resources. Makes it easier for multiple players to use a single shared cargo/transport ship. Source code is available on github[github.com].

The mod seems to work fine on v0.28.2, but was only properly tested with a friend on v0.27.0. Because of how the mod works it is quite possible it will stop working on newer versions, especially if the resource transfer logic changes.

This mod requires the Enhanced Mod Loader to function.

The mod use the base game's "Ship.IsAlliesWith()" function, which checks if the players are on the same team. The mod doesn't require a fresh save, but if you can't change teams in an existing save (I haven't checked whether you can), you won't currently be able to use is on that save.

Adding a setting to allow taking resources from player on other teams would require some effort
(some kind of menu or other way to set the option & making sure its synced across clients).and I probably won't work on that anytime soon.

Does this only work when on the same team? Does it require a fresh start? When I hail my friend's ship (who is a separate team) I do not see the ability to request items, only send items. We both have this mod and the linked Enhanced Mod Loader installed and enabled.

We've tested it extensively and the mod is working perfectly again in multiplayer.
Thanks!

We will test on the first opportunity, I Let you know then! :)

I've just forked the loader and created a separate workshop page for it. It seems to work on v0.28.2 now, though I didn't thoroughly test it.

Dont think the mod loader gets any update soon, or at all. Last update was 2 years ago, so the needed mod loader is dead.

I'll try reach out to C0dingschmuser and maybe fork their mod if they don't have time to update it

Fingers crossed his EML mod get an update soon mate.
I realy appreciate ur work and mod, it is the only mod that allows sharing resources without confirmation, there is no alternative!

The newest version moved to a new .net framework, so both EML and my mod need updating, though there's no point in updating my mod until EML gets updated. But at least the update should be pretty trivial to do.
