Yep I got mine reuploaded. Thanks for the help.

All my mods are giving "404 - Attachment Not Found"   
But when I try to reupload I get the error "Cannot access attachments upload path!"

Is something wrong with the forum attachments?
File was in a folder but I moved it to my desktop.

I'm trying to make a table for the doctor similar to the research bench.
This way he can study medicine for a slight skill gain when noone is injured.

Any help is appreciated, I'm not very good at programming, but I think I've given it a good shot.

I don't really understand JobDrivers and WorkGivers, I think they work together.. but they don't seem to overlap anywhere. I have the proper JobDefs and WorkGiverDefs already made.

Right now I'm not sure how to make them actually stand there and study as the toil action.
Not sure how to write this hasPatients bool. If anyone is injured, the job cancels.

Nice turret! It's like a magic trick! I'm dying to know how it was done...
You've got me inspired. I need to work on drawing techy-looking panels on stuff.

Hey I like your mod - especially the textures I really love the concept of small mods adding only one or two applications so people can make their own "tool box" of mods. Was it a design decision to only let one dispenser exist at a time?

I suggest settling on one design and then put them behind a research topic and don't replace the vanilla ones. 
If you could possibly remove or reduce that negative thought along with the smaller size then I'd be all over this.

Thanks! It's not a design choice, they don't work unless they overwrite the original. I tried adding all 3 as one mod so you could chose once in-game, but I think there is code that controls pawn's geting meals from it. Simply naming an objects as Building_NutrientPasteDispenser didn't work, it has to steal the defname too.

Replacing the vanilla ones doesn't matter much imo. If you want vanilla, dont download them mod; once you've downloaded the mod, why would you use the vanilla?
This mod is best used if you just imagine that the vanilla texture isn't a huge honking machine.
It's not supposed to make it more OP, just more manageable. That tiny one does feel cheaty without research, but I haven't gotten that far..

Thanks to sanya02 for tuning me into a way to get them working.
I tested them for awhile, they should be working fine. If anyone notices any problems let me know.

replaces the main dispenser!

That solved it, Thank you! Just changing the defname to the vanilla dispenser. I don't like the idea of overwriting/replacing much, but it will have to do. I was hoping to find a solution in the code somewhere.

I saw someone talking about this and have always wanted it. Just another one of my "Replace vanilla, Make it smaller!" mods..
Just wanted to get some thoughts if anyone bothers trying it. There is a 1x1 and 2 -1x3 versions for different interaction slots.

Not Working! Does not produce meals, colonists eat raw food.

Currently uses textures from my research tables so <user beware!> works as intended otherwise.
Updated with art! Isn't spectacular, but it's something. I'd like to add some flashy panels and things later.

I'm concerned with the balance.  Stat wise they are identical to a big paste dispenser. 
That compact one probably needs to be researched, but it could function better somehwow?

Spent awhile staring at some code. Everything in Building_NutrientPasteDispenser seems to work well enough, they are functioning like normal NPDs except not producing meals.
I think the problem may be in FoodUtility, or some other class concerning AI and meals choice.

Just reuploaded, if anyone was getting corrupt file

reuploaded, hopefully it works now

I mayhave made a mistake and forgot to upload the biome defs, so nothing will spawn, illadd it now and reupload to this post.
Edit - done!

Updated. Heh, hopefully it works now? I haven't done any testing on it.

Tynan has said it's already programmed into the game, or was. I think it's inactive and incomplete.
Right now he's working on more manageable things instead of spending a month getting it to work.
But we can hope for it as an option or as a mod someday! Keep pushing for it  I think it sounds fun.

I have stuff using embrasures in my enhanced defence mod. Although no research yet.

Oh awesome, might update it with that info. Though I don't see a need to research walls -with- holes..

Any plans to update this?
