Engineering Bay Redux

Description
What is this?
This is my personal redux of the Engineering Bay mod by SirEvans, uploaded with permission.
Both mods can run together without issue, this mod does not auto-replace his original, although realistically only one mod should be enabled...

The Engineering Bay is a larger Engine Room. Made to be the heart of any thruster setups.

Features
A larger, 4x4 size, Engineering Room offering all the benefits of the standard vanilla part.
Connected thrusters within a 7 tile range get a 50% thrust boost but consume more power. However the Engineering Bay will also act as a central power capacitor/distribution hub for all connected thrusters, including MRTs.

Has a built-in heat storage buffer and will slowly passively dissipate heat, much like a radiator.

Changes from the original mod: Reworked most of the sprites, fixing a few issues with the roof normals and battery placements. The floor plan has been completely revamped to be more in style with the vanilla room. Showcases the heat buffer in an "under the floor" battery.

~~ Confirmed working in MELTDOWN/Sounds updates ~~
Overclocking the bay effectively turns it into a large Heat Exchanger, sucking up heat from 7 tiles range.

Compatibility
Should work with most modded thrusters.
I had no issues with the original mod or this one during testing.

Credits
Many many thanks to SirEvans for the original mod and allowing this version to be posted.
Huge appreciation to the MEME and Cosmoteer discords for always inspiring me to make mods.

~ Enjoy !! and please buy me a Cuppa Tea[buymeacoffee.com].
