README

Stability Beams

Adds higher-tier versions of the vanilla iron-strapped wood beam and pole, one for each metal progression step:

Tier Piece Metal Stability Health
1 Silver-strapped Silver x1.25 x1.25
2 Black Metal-strapped Black Metal x1.50 x1.60
3 Flametal-strapped Flametal x1.80 x2.00
4 Bloodgold-strapped Bloodgold x2.20 x2.60

(Stability numbers scale the piece's maximum support and reduce support loss. Defaults shown; all configurable.)

How it works

  • The new pieces appear in the hammer build menu next to the vanilla iron beams (straight beam, 26 / 45 / 67 degree beams, and pole).
  • They are built and deconstructed like any vanilla piece: the cost is the vanilla recipe with the Iron swapped for the tier's metal, and deconstructing refunds everything.
  • A piece becomes available once you have discovered its materials, like vanilla pieces.
  • The metal parts of the model are recolored to match each metal.

Configuration

After the first launch, edit BepInEx/config/Aquatechnic.NewMetalBeams.cfg:

  • Stability, health and cost multipliers for each tier
  • Which vanilla pieces get variants (BasePrefabs)
  • Metal colors and recolor detection settings

Stability multipliers are synced from the server and apply live. Recipes, health and the piece list need a restart.

Multiplayer

Everyone (and the server) needs this mod and the same version. Removing the mod deletes any placed pieces from this mod.

Known issues

  • Models may look different with other texture or building mods installed.
  • The angled-beam recoloring is tuned per game version; report anything that looks off.

Disclosure

This mod was developed with significant help from an AI assistant (code generation).
