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.

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?

[Igabod]

I don't use dispensers myself. But this is a good idea. I am thinking of downloading the mod as it is right now and giving it a shot though. I suggest settling on one design and then put them behind a research topic and don't replace the vanilla ones. I'd make the research cost fairly high for it too. One of my biggest gripes about NPD's is their size. I also am not fond of that negative thought you get from eating paste. If you could possibly remove or reduce that negative thought along with the smaller size then I'd be all over this. Cooking is annoying sometimes when your only good cook is also your only good miner or construction worker.

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..

Was hoping to get some insight into dispensers for my own mod. And I did. Shame it seems they really are hardcoded into the game. Thanks for the info. This is probably the best we can get a dispenser to be at this version of the game.

Alright, those limitations are understandable. I have limited modding experience with this game and wasn't aware of those issues. So thank you for informing me. I just gave up on my recent colony last night because there are a few new mods out that I've been wanting to try and I'm going to download this and try it out tonight.

Ill have a look into this for you but I'm sure if you added a worker def for your new paste dispenser def it would work. I'm in the middle of something right now but ill check tonight if I can.

[Kirid]

Updated! Please be sure to read and only activate one at a time. Repackaged into a single mod rather than individuals. They are all fairly small anyways.

Niiiice... You can't make like 3 extra ones in the game ?

[Dr. Z]

Hmmm..couldn't you just make three different new dispensers with different Def names but the same ingame names?

[Igabod]

The def name is the important part as far as the code is concerned. The code for NPD's looks specifically for the defname of the NPD and if it doesn't match then it doesn't work.
