[sd] nopower comms console

not doing anymore updates for any rimworld mods.


"well technicly you're using animals to power your stuff"

- adds 1 message table (comms console)
- adds 1 bird cage (needs food to feed him, powers comms console literaly)
- adds 2 type of trade markers (orbital trade beacons, one fueled, one not)
- adds 1 research project (all buildings in this mod needs this as prerequisite)
- adds 1 ressource (glow crystal), can be bought from exotic goods traders (or traders dealing with such wares)
- adds 1 recipe to stonecutters table to craft glow crystals (req lv10 crafting) (more a alternate way to get them if u have bad luck on traders)


There are several different textures for the trademarkers and bird cage. you can switch between them by rotating your buildling.

(To be correct the message table needs 1 power and the bird cage produces one. It's a bit of a workaround. you can totaly abuse this i know, as always it's your game, so do to your liking. i just wanted a comms console, which fits with low tech/no gun runs and needs building from the electricity)

additional Languages: german, spanish and spanish latin (thx to CANALETA)


This mostly a cosmetic mod. it is intended for tribe/medieval runs. you can still use it during your tech progression. it does not override the vanilla comms console/orbital trade beacons. i know with the 1 power thing you can abuse the mod in normal runs, but use or abuse to your liking. it is your game ;)

All buildings are rotatable/minfieable and can be build out of stuff. the 1x1 buildings change the textures by rotating. you can not change the light colors at this moment.

All the buildings have the breakdownable tag not included, so this should be fine in terms of low tech and not getting components. Since this is purely a xml mod you have some problems/features: you can still get solar flares, so you might want to disable the event if you dont want this (or the solar flare effects the birds when traveling?). You can get orbital traders with this, so disable the event if this is unwanted. since the bird cage produces the power you must place one near the message table, same restrictions like other electric buildings in terms of connectiong to stuff.

the trade marker take wood as fuel and have the same stats (consume/light/heat) as torches. the fueled trade markers still seem to work even when not fueled, kinda an xml problem, since i would need to change the oribtal trade beacons code for that.

the bird cage takes all raw food and hay. i disabled the fertilized eggs, so that you dont lose them if your pawns accidently feed them to the birds.

added mass as of alpha 16. messager table is 25, both trademarker variants are 50, the birdcage is 15.

the research is located at the end of the vanilla tree (x row 16). i hope this solves some problems. but i'm aware that the tree is a mess with mods.
