Do not use this mod, it will crash your game when you try to place the connector. (Sept 2025)

yep - crashes when placed

mod is broken, will crash your game.

game crashes when placed

instant crash on placing

@Iron_raven-2182 I'm glad its not just me going crazy

Nice in theory, but game just crashes upon placing, and given other comments, I don't think it's on my end.

Replace <Definition> with :

<Definition xsi:type="MyObjectBuilder_ShipConnectorDefinition">

You need to do this again further down for the small grid variant.

If only I knew the folder number, I've got 319 folders in my workshop\current\content folder. I would apply Digi's recommendation but searching through these folders ...nah :))

Ctd :(

As much as I loved you and we've been together a long time I'm going to have to break up with you, DK Slim Connector. I keep forgetting your CTD my game. Maybe we'll meet again?

game crashes

No idea how to find it. Why can't somone republish this mod in fixed version? Suppose the author, after seven years, won't object.

Sorry if I as non-modder ask a stupid question, but where do I find that line in vanilla connector? Is it from the file "connector.mwm" in /content/models/cubes/large ?

If you do wanna fix the crash, all you need to do is copy the <Definition line from vanilla connector, it has a xsi:type thing since SE v192, but it only became a problem now as they require it to be properly defined :P

Yep , game crashes when i place the connector.

yep confirmed - https://pastebin.com/v1KgVPjE

with the new update it crashes the game

Nice job, man.

Wonderful but broken Mod. Game and whole PC crash when opening G-Menu or ESC-Menu. Had to deinstall it :/

This connector is perfect for what I need, but since it hasn't been updated since 2015 is discouraging, and I can't find any other mod like it.

So needed

Keen seems to have broken most, if not all Connector mods in adding their new option for auto disconnecting connected ships. Just a heads up ^^ lol

Will the emisives be updated on this as well as the texturing or is it abandoned?

They work, but the light ring is not working, which is impractical... Hope this is still an active mod.
It's really useful.

Really missing these....

@duncankong are you still in the SE modding community?

Any chance of these being updated to fit the new model design?

can canfirme the lighting is broken now needs fix

wasn't it possible to keep in within the boundaries of a single block?

@duncankong - My game seems to crash out alot, normally when I am accessing via your Slim Connector. Not sure if it this mod, but does it need updating to take into account the newest patches.?

Thanks

Hi Duncan. Sent you a FR. I'd like to speak to you about some future stuff, if you're still at all interested in SE. :P

The latest update broke the status lights... Connector works but status lights do not. Only turn off status

When I tried this, I couldn't get my connectors to work. I had a Slim version on both sides too.

Too large.

I am having an issue with this mod crashing my server whenever someone other than myself connected to it. Anyone else run into this?

can you mack trantracks?

nice job

@Galenmacil I agree but when I made the mod there was no way to specifically define a cargo capacity for connectors. (as far as I know it is still not possible)

Since they are slimer than vanilla connector, they should hold way less as well. Just a balance idea...

Any chance of getting a slim ejector? or a smallship 1x1 connector?

really good. The long docking range keeps the connectors from blowing up. I've needed to rebuild my cargo ship countless times with stock connectors.

@duncankong That is useful information about the dummies. I too have a slim connector mod I made a while back that has that flipping problem and have not spent much time on trying to solve it. When I make the time I need to go back and take a look at it and try to fix it and update it. :D

@The Evil Beaver There is an invisible "dummy" that determines where connectors connect. This "dummy" is oriented according to whichever side it is closest to. Since my connector takes up less than half a block if I put the "dummy" too close to the bottom half of the 1x1x1 block then ships would rotate the wrong way when connecting.

Long story short: It pushes you away because if I moved the connection point any closer to the model then any ship that attempted to connect would try to flip upside down.

why does it push my ship up?

Thx for your work on DX11 :)

This is one of the best mods imo. But it doesn't work in DX11. The developers take space, while the modders save space generally. Developer spaces are empty and hollow. Modder spaces are interesting, provide context and are more fun. Hope you update this one!

Love your slim connectors duncankong, was wondering if there was a DX11 update planned?
