Planet veins, oil, and ILS / PLS station stock never run dry - the sources you build on never need re-balancing or replacing.

Author: zicarius Version: 1.0.0 Game: Dyson Sphere Program 0.9.27+ and 0.10.33+ Loader: BepInEx 5.4.17+

For players who never want to worry about a vein running dry.

What it does

When installed, every source of items - miner, oil extractor, Icarus hand-mining, ILS / PLS vein collector, ILS / PLS source station - stops consuming the source's resources. The planet's veins stay full forever. The source ILS / PLS storage stays full forever. You can ship items without re-balancing or replacing the source.

The mod does not change extraction rates, mining speed, or stack sizes. The vein amount is restored after each consumer's call - the planet still "produces" at the same rate, the consumer still pulls the same amount per tick, but the source never depletes.

Features

• Miner / ore - all vein amounts restored after miner extract.
• Crude oil - all oil vein amounts restored after oil extractor.
• Icarus hand-mining - vein amount restored after Icarus mines a resource node (right-click).
• ILS / PLS vein collection - vein amount restored after an advanced mining station pulls from a planet vein.
• ILS / PLS source storage - source station's storage buffer restored after a dispatch.
• PlanetMinerFast support - a dedicated compatibility layer keeps veins full even when PlanetMinerFast (by valoneu) is installed, which otherwise depletes them from its own slow-tick handler outside this mod's reach.
• Per-source toggles - enable or disable each source type independently. Default: all on.
• Gated debug log - verbose diagnostic logging via the Diagnostics.DebugLog config toggle.

Before you install

This is a BepInEx plugin - it patches the game's code at runtime using Harmony postfixes (a snapshot-and-restore pattern, not IL rewriting).

• Only download from sources you trust. Only this mod's Thunderstore page or the GitHub repo - treat re-uploads elsewhere as unsafe.
• Game updates can break it. A DSP update may stop this mod from working until a compatibility update is released. If the game misbehaves after an update, disable this mod first and check back.
• Back up your save first. This mod does not write custom data to your save - it only restores in-memory vein/storage values each tick - but a backup before enabling any new mod is good practice regardless.

Configuration

All settings live in the BepInEx config file - there is no in-game settings window.

(Full reference: see the .cfg file BepInEx writes on first run.)

Compatibility

• Game version: DSP 0.9.27+ and 0.10.33+ (multi-version with defensive reflection).
• PlanetMinerFast (by valoneu): supported via a dedicated compat layer (Patches\PlanetMinerFastCompat.cs, gated by EnablePlanetMinerFastCompatFlag, default true). PlanetMinerFast depletes vein amounts directly from its own slow-tick handler, bypassing MinerComponent.InternalUpdate entirely - without the compat layer the vein would still slowly drain even with this mod installed. Confirmed working in-game.
• StacksizeMultiplier: compatible (orthogonal).
• MaxLVLIncrease: compatible (orthogonal).
• CommonAPI: not used in v1. Will be required for v1.1's in-game window.
• Multiplayer: untested in Nebula multiplayer. Vein / storage state is per-planet and the patches are per-tick - should work but is not confirmed.
