[A16] Izzyssentials (v1.16)

[IzzyHRC]

Description:
A collection of my own little mods I deem essential to a Rimworld playthrough.

Containing:
Linked hydroponics
A one-tile hydroponics, exactly the same as the regular one.
With the added benefit that when the contents of one hydro is changed all the touching one will be changed to that type as well. This also works when placing new hydro's next to an existing one. It will simply copy the plant of the one next to it.

Linked stools (with a fancier variant)
A one-tile stool that connects to itself
The fancier variant unlocks after the Beautification Project.
Simply adds a bit more beauty to the environment at the cost of materials.

Linked tables (with a fancier variant)
A one-tile table that connects to itself
The fancier variant unlocks after the Beautification Project.
Simply adds a bit more beauty to the environment at the cost of materials.

Linked solar panels
A one-tile solar panel with a central power output indicator.
It will be transparent at night and blue at day time.

Lamps
Same as the regular lamps, except being available in all material types.
After Coloured-Lights is researched they will be automatically updated to provide you the means to alter the colour of them at will. (25 different colours)

Wall lights
Walls with build in lights, available in all material types.
After Coloured-Lights is researched they will be automatically updated to provide you the means to alter the colour of them at will. (25 different colours)

Wall switches
A switch, within the wall itself, available in all material types.
The build in led will burn red when no power flows through it, green when power does flow through it and goes inactive (grey) when flicked off.
Also includes a researchable sensor to automatically switch on/off when someone is within a selected radius.

Pictures:
Example of Wall lights and switches.

Example of the different furniture pieces.

Example of hydroponics and solar panels. Taken at different hours to show you the small indicator on the solar panels.

Updates might be slow...
Without going into details, there was an incident around February 2016. After some time I got my diagnosis..
Unable to work and after frequent visits to the doctor/hospital/psychologist/psychiatrist, I can say I'm doing better now.
I'm taking heavy medication which don't come without side effects, but hey. Everyone's got something right?
For this reason I let everything go, including this mod. And if it wasn't for some people (like you Skullywag!) I prob wouldn't have updated this mod.
For the same reason, I can't really say if I'll be able to continue this. Purely based on medical reasons.
Nothing's going to stop me from trying though!

How to install:
- Download the file here:

- Unzip the contents into your RimWorld/Mods folder.
- Start up the game and click the Mods button in the main menu.
- There you'll notice a few 'izzyssentials' folders.
- Activate the Izzyssentials core folder and the other addons you want to use.

How to update:
Simply delete the old version and place the new version.
This should have no consequence on your savegame.

Ultimate purple and black base?! Sounds pretty sweet! I'd like to see it when it's done 

[pktongrimworld]

anyway to unhide the default stuff?

*it seem to also hide my other mods that changes hypos.

*it seem to also hide my other mods that changes hypos.

Thought that would be an issue (mentioned it in my post actually) I'll repeat it for you.

- By default the vanilla hydro's, solar panels, stools, tables and lamps are hidden by this mod.
(By hidden I mean that they're not gone! You simply won't be able to build new ones.)
- Follow the following steps to turn this off.
- Go into the follow directory RimWorld/Mods/Izzysentials/Defs/ThingDefs
- Delete the Hidden.xml file
- The default items should now be available alongside the mods items.

Hope it helps!

(any chance you could give me the list of mods you have this issue with?)

I like this mod. Thank you. Been using it in my colony. (First one to survive a month in a while) LOL

It's a work in progress at the moment, but looking pretty cool.  I love the mod btw, the solar panels are awesome!

No problem, glad you like it!   Hopefully my mod will provide you with enough luck to survive whatever the rimworld gods throw at you 

It's a work in progress at the moment, but looking pretty cool.  I love the mod btw, the solar panels are awesome!

Hard day at work today and seeing these lovely comments really cheer me up.
But that picture is the cherry on top! What a base!
My mod in action, so cool  ... nearly fell for the 'indoor' solar panels, heh.
That colonist though ... Aids ...
Can't imagine people calling out to him...
"AIDS!! Where are you Aids! Has anyone seen my Aids? I need Aids!"

Then .. erm... I'm sorry for resembling him to a horrible illness   
Aaaanyway it's getting abit off-topic, good luck with that nice base of yours!
Let me know if you find anything weird with my mod.
And if you have any suggestions just let me know.

Hello I seem to be having a problem with your mods Hydroponics basins. They used to work but on my last load I can no longer see/change what is growing in them. The "Growing" button has disappeared and colonists won't plant in them. I think it has to do with Edb Interface as it gave an error relating to the Inspector...oddly I can't get that particular error to come up again. It's not a huge deal if I can't get it to work but was hoping you could maybe point me in the right direction of what could cause it. If you need more info let me know.

Edit: Also if I build new basins they seem to work for the time being. Forgot to mention that originally.

Edit 2: Happens if I close the game out completely and reload it. I also had the error again so I took a screenshot...I don't know how to copy from the debug window. Sorry.

Thanks for the mod and your time.

Ha, nice catch.
I was able to reproduce it when using it together with Edb Interface.
Very odd that everything works, until you save and reload the game.
I do have a feeling where the problem could be.

Currently working on a fix,
Thank you for the feedback, and the clear-cut description of the issue!
