Are you trying to add recipes to the Cooking Stove without actually overriding the Cooking Stove itself?

Indeed, that would be the preferred goal over rewriting the whole shebang (which is what I did before started this thread).

Doable currently?

Yup. Just copy the XML for the old CookStove exactly, throw it in your Defs folder, and make your own modifications. The game will load your mod's CookStove instead of the Core one.

Did that, was just wondering if there was a true inheritance mechanic - apparently not, and hopefully that'll change later.

Well, there's that route, but would prefer one where you don't need to create a new custom workbench and just extend (or modify) capabilities of already existing ones, for example something like:

Code Select Expand

<ThingDef Extends="CookStove">
   <extend_recipes>
      <li>NewRecipeOne</li>
      <li>NewRecipeTwo</li>
      <!-- and so on -->
   </extend_recipes>
</ThingDef>


...and that'd be all what'd be required to cram new stuff into old oven...

Doable currently?

I'm tinkering with a lil' cooking mod, and came across a bit of a dilemma (mod compatibility-wise). Is there a way to "extend" already existing items (e.g. Cooking Stove) capabilities without rewriting the whole shebang, i.e. expand their menu of craftable items etc.?

...and/or to change their orientation without rebuilding.

Recive mode is that it recive only and colonist wont take stuff from it, if you set to dispense, it will show on top one item that is stored in it and colonist will able to pick it up, of its on dispense and colonist pick up a item another item will be shown on top
At dispense if i remmber right colonist still can store stuff in it.

Ah-a, that clears it - thanks.

  power saving with auto-switches FTW.

Nano Storage's "Retrieve" and "Dispense" mode... Beats me, what they do?

I also cannot use Paypal, and it's a shame because I'm really interested in the game. Hope you get to Desura/Humble/Steam/Etc.

Similar problem here. Paypal refuses to accept any of my credit cards, be they Visa or MasterCard. Altho, in a way I'm glad paypal does that - with their failure mileage...
