Thats a Stormworks problem. Just make sure to mark your mods as required items so people know what they need.

The workshop uploading works but when someone who doesnt have the mod loaded subscribes they can't use it

That would be possible

Damn that sucks, thanks for the reply though. Do you know if I could do something like modify the mesh to have the paint I want, and use that? Like can I color the mesh itself and put that into a mod?

It would not be possible, since the surfaces used on normal components are defined using the xml file, which are limited to ones that exist in vanilla Stormworks, so you would have to do a lot more modding to get that to work. The custom shapes Thales made use a mesh, which is why they can't be painted like usual. Not to mention the physics shapes are also impossible because, just like the xml surfaces, are limited to existing shapes. If you want to mod the shapes yourself you can, but just be warned that they can't be exactly as you would expect them to look.

Also I'm just maintaining this mod if it breaks, not planning on adding anything new.

Would it be possible to make the surfaces of the new slopes and shapes paint-able like vanilla blocks? Also how much work would it take to add more shapes? At this point I'm practically about to throw myself into modding this game myself to get these shapes.

Thank you so much for this update. This will be a game changer for sure.

Hello! I was able to put my creation on the workshop, but when i subscribe and download, it says i need to download the required mods..

hi

amazing

A lighter version of the mod would be great, say split certain things like blocks and parts, windows, deco and so on.

Sorry I'm not going to be adding anything new to this mod. I only recompiled and optimized the parts. I may try adding something like that on my other mod tho. I've already made a compact version of the normal light so I'm sure it would be possible

Like spotlights and such

Would a fluid port on a wedge surface be possible? Maybe other similar components?

Yes

is this made with component modding?

Might have a fix for the missing wheels, but the mechanical pieces still crash the game

I guess I could just remove them for now

Can you deprecate the broken parts until they're fixed?

All you need to do is create the vehicle in a world where the mods are enabled, and you will be able to spawn it in other worlds that don't have the mods. However when going to other worlds without the mods, you won't have the components in your catalog, so you will need them to already be on your vehicle.

is there something special to do to allow them to work across servers, or just enable it while building and it'll be spawnable even if people dont have everything?

found some bugs with some of the wheels the 3x3 narrow and caster wheels are not showing up

Grimper I don't think its possible still since the way you make custom window models is you specify the model material as glass, and I don't think it can be both glass and paintable

ay bud i respect ya keeping this updated even when thales is away

Any chance you could look into doing tinted/paintable windows? I asked Thales about this a while back and he said it wasn't possible back then. But now that things work differently it might be hopefully.

You can use these in multiplayer and workshop builds

what is different about this one from thales's?

He did give permission to upload this

Did Thales give you his blessing?

nice
