Hey, sorry that I have not responded for a while, life got a bit crazy, but I am back, if you are still interested in helping with textures let me know.

I may be wrong about this, But when using Architect Sense to make a few groups for my mod, I cant see the option to duplicate a block, other blocks from my mod, that dont use the grouping however do have the option for duplicating the block, here is my def for the groups:

Is it something I am doing wrong, or something I have missed?

The plants I have added to the mod, when you attempt to grow them, do not need the seeds to plant. I made a new world, had no storage, no seeds, and told them to plant the seeds, they did so with nothing. Is there a way to fix this?
I will add the defs for both the seeds and the crops, if any other defs are needed let me know.

The seeds:

-Edit-
Just noticed that you can plant seeds that you dont have for everything, like healroot and what not, didnt know that at first, regardless, if someone has any way to do this let me know

Hey, Sorry for being gone for a while, life got crazy for a bit, but I am back, and I plan to make more blocks soon. I have just added the fancy blocks (im not the best at textures, I am looking for an artist to assist me) and the light blocks (there will be light blocks for each variant of walls in the mod, atm the light blocks are just for the Metal blocks)

I will try that, as for the copy problem, here is my new xml file:

I am having 2 issues with my custom walls, one is that I cant seem to get them to connect to the rock walls like the vanilla walls, and also that when I click on the custom walls I cant select the 'copy' option like the normal walls. If anyone can point me to the issue that would be great.

Does anyone know how to add the ability to copy a block in order to place more? I still have yet to figure it out.

I took the vanilla code, changed a few things and made it, here is the xml

For some reason, when I right click my custom walls, they dont show me an option to copy the wall, like the core mod already does, I am sure I have either overlooked something or I am not looking in the right places. If anyone could point out my mistake I would be grateful

[More Blocks!]

More Blocks!

So the idea for this mod came from when I was playing through rim world for the first few times. I was kinda disappointed that the walls looked so bland, and I wanted to add more blocks that looked nicer. So I started working on this mod. I have had rimworld for less then a week and I have been working on  this mod for a little while.

-To get started:
1) Make sure to have the blocks you want to craft researched
2) Grow the new plants to get the dyes you need for the color of walls you want
3) Place a construction table from the productions tab and make new bills to make the components for the walls.
4) Build the walls.


**Important**
If you have any art skills that surpass my own (not hard to do) and want to help out with the textures, shoot me a pm, join my discord, or email me at [email protected]

At the moment the mod contains:

• 8 new colored walls
• 8 new colored doors
• 8 new colored metal walls
• 8 new colored metal walls (with lights)
• 11 new crafting components
• 8 new plants
• 8 new seeds
• 4 new researches
• 1 new production table (to make the components)

I am up for wall ideas and suggestions for the mod, as well as opinions on the mod.

This mod requires you to have ArchitectSense. Otherwise there would be too many blocks in the MoreBlocks category.

Here are all the things added:

Thanks again!

Is there a way to add a mod dependency, so that they need a certain mod to run mine? I know some mods use HugsLib or something, and if its not installed it offers to download/activate the mod.

Thank you so much, this will clean up my tabs!

Ok, so when you set different resources to be used for a wall, it will have a single menu item with a drop down menu that is named after the resource used to build the wall. the color assigned with the resource will be put to the image of the wall you are trying to build. What I am wanting to do, is have the same thing, but instead of having the whole color of the block being changed, I want there to be different textures for the walls but having them under the same drop down menu. Is there an easy way to do that?

Awesome, I will take a look and see if it has that.

-Edit-
That was the Issue, thanks a ton!
