Rust Mechanics V2

I Will try puiting it on on se2 later ont too (not guaranteed)


This is a Fixed and modified Version of the Rust Mechanics Mod
i had to change some parts in his code
and i changed his blacklist from

BlockSubtypeContainsBlackList:

How it works: When the script runs, it checks each block. If a block’s type is on the blacklist, the script skips that block and doesn’t do anything to it.

to

SkinSubtypeIdBlackList:

How it works: When your script runs, it checks the skin ID of each block. block's skin ID matches one on the blacklist, the script skips that block and doesn’t do anything to it.


to make it easier to use now you can just give the block one of the set skins and it would not rust

Blocks will slowly rust over time while in atmosphere of configured planets.

All blocks that is not covered by other blocks or airtight spaces in all directions will be affected by rust.

By default Earth, Alien, Pertam Venus and more (that is any modded planet that has "Venus" in it's name) planets are configured.

Grids inside SafeZone that has damage disabled will not take rust damage.

Rusting of powered grids can be disabled in config.

Server side only scripts! (work on Xbox dedicated servers, tested)

!!WARNING!! This mod is still somewhat experimental. Bugs are expected, please report if encountered. Also careful adding this to your already build world without backup saves.


F.A.Q

- How to repair rusted block?

Wield it up and paint. Only texture needs to be applied to fix rust.

- Does weather affect rusting?

No. Weather effects are not implemented,

Configuration

This mod can be configured per save game:

Create and save game with this mod added.
Open Storage directory of your save, i.e.:
C:\Users\<User Name>\AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves\<Some number>\<Save Game name>\Storage\<Some number>.sbm_RustMechanics
ConfigRust.xml file should be inside.
Make sure to edit the latest version if there is more than one!
Also need to re-config every time mod is updated with changes to config options.
Open it with Notepad or other text editor

You will see planets config:

OnlyRustUnpoweredGrids - will rust only unpowered (abandoned) grids if set to true.

RustDamagesBlocks - blocks will get damaged when rusting if set to true. Only texture change when set to false.

More planets, vanilla or custom can be added. PlanetNameContains is any part of planet name. AverageMinutesToStartRusting is how much minutes on average will it take for rust to start appearing on blocks. The further rusting depends on block integrity. I.e. it will take about 20 times more for large light armor block until block completely dissapear.

Any vanilla or modded Skin names can be added to the list.


Integrations

Any modded planet that has atmosphere can be used with this mod.

Any modded skin will rust or not.

To make rust maintenance more realistic it is recomended to use this mod together with Paint Gun mod, while disabling vanilla painting
