[Discontinued]Advanced Pistons

I'm not working on mods anymore!
I've put out this information on my page a while ago, but I'm still getting comments asking for updates.
More info here: https://steamproxy.net/id/argual/

This mod adds 3 additional pistons in the game. And they are advanced!
Why, you might ask. Because they can transport items! But wait, there is more!

The "Short Advanced Piston" is 1x1x1, and it can extend up to 3 blocks. (So it is 4 blocks long fully extended, counting the base.)

The "Advanced Piston" is 1x1x2, and it can extend up to 6 blocks. (So it is 8 blocks long fully extended, counting the base.)

The "Long Advanced Piston" is 1x1x3, and it can extend up to 9 blocks. (So it is 12 blocks long fully extended, counting the base.)

If you do the math, they are about 1.5 times more space-efficient than vanilla pistons. So, they are about 1.5 times more expensive.

They are avaliable to both large and small grids.


Please don't request longer pistons, I think even the 1x1x3 one is pushing it.
Please don't request wide pistons. I wanted to make them, but the piston part collisions are hardcoded, so if I make wide pistons, the models would clip.

If you have a problem (bug, etc):
Try going in your "%AppData%/Space Engineers/Mods" folder, and delete everything in it. That should make the game redownload the files next time you load a world with the mod. I can't deal with local problems, happening only to a handful of people. They are usually due to fault in the computer, game or mod files. The absolute first thing to do should not be asking to help, first try to figure out what could cause the issue.

Don't take this the wrong way, I'm just a bit tired of 5/10 bug reports being fixed by a simple redownload or game verification, and an additional 4 isn't even real, the user just misread something or forgot to add the mod.

TL;DR: When you find a problem, think, sit on it for 10 minutes at least, then act. Thanks!
