Contraption Framework

Description
Contraption Framework (CFW)


Monitors constraints to create "Contraption" objects and adds callbacks for changes made to contraptions for efficient contraption-aware functionality.

For example, in order to calculate the total mass of a contraption traditionally one would need to iterate over every entity on the contraption and store this information somewhere.

With Contraption Framework (CFW), a callback is run whenever an entity is added to or removed from a contraption and the total mass is added to or subtracted from the total stored in memory on the contraption object.

@Balooba5000 What's the addon with the tranquilizer gun that you were using?

Would you be willing to send me the dupe you tried this with on Discord? This is probably something specific to your particular dupe.

trying to paste in a dupe with advdupe2 causes it to not be undoable with the Z key, and these errors show up

I have this downloaded but it says its not installed
thecraftianman 24 Apr @ 8:56pm 
Could you send a link to the dupe so that I can try taking a look at it?
vegan food user 24 Apr @ 5:21pm 
Yeah, I tried doing that already but that didn't help,

ULib isn't related to this at all, but there might be something else conflicting with this addon. Try disabling any addons that also do things to prop contraptions and see if that fixes it.
