I don't have a numeric keypad. Is there any way to remap the keys?

As a workaround I used the Windows virtual keyboard, which is a bit clunky.

Hi there,
Here I tried to explain how to manually (by writing in the files directly) change keybindings on Reddit.

Tell me if you need more help, no problems

Is there any chance that the veinminer disignator could appear when you click a vein? It's a pain having to open the Orders tab to look for the VeinMiner designator amongst all the other designators.

Update by Rock5

I've been tinkering with dlls and managed to make some fixes for VeinMiner that I thought others might appreciate. Do with it what you will.


       
  • 1. Fixed the Mine Brush to start with the Trade Beacon diameter. (The method used to get the trade beacon size wasn't working so I just hard coded the size).
  • 2. We also need to dig out SunLamp areas. So now if you click the Mine Brush twice it changes to the SunLamp size.
  • 3. It always annoyed me that if a vein is found and the only visible mineable blocks were already designated then you couldn't use the VeinMiner on it unless you first clear it. Now it will mark the whole vein even when it's already marked.
  • 4. It frustrated me that when using the strip miner, that the different spacing didn't line up. Now they do. You can, for instance, start with 12 spaces then later slice that into 6 spaces then down to 3. Although now it starts with 3 spaces instead of 4 and doesn't reduce below the minimum spacing (to avoid a divide by zero error).
I only made changes to the dll but I'm uploading the whole thing for convenience.

VLC is a media player right? What does that have to do with a rimworld mod?

Why the strip miner is 3 tile wide and not 2? Wont the small veins in the middle left undiscovered?

Rock5

It just turned out as 3. Somewhere in the code it jumps 3 for every 1 step. I couldn't find the source of that. But anyway, 3 is fine considering the smallest vein is probably 2x2. You wont miss a vein if it's 3 tile stripes.

Ok. Figured it out. Did a search for A16 news in the last 24 hours. Looks like A16 unstable has been released. What excitement!
