Gases with Masses

Description
Updated: 04/04/2020
Space Engineers Version: 1.194

Ever think it was strange that hydrogen and oxygen didn't weight anything inside of tanks in this game?

I did

Description:
This mod adds mass to the liquid gasses inside of tanks.

-Makes reaching space a little more difficult
-Adds a level of realism and strategy to dealing with the extra mass
-You can watch your weight drop and your acceleration increase as your hydrogen tanks empty.

10 liters of liquid gas = 1kg
the same weight as the ice used to produce it

Known Issues:
When I gave the tanks inventory space the bottles crashed the game when pulled out of inventory. I have reverted to version where the gas tanks don't have an inventory to prevent crashes. I don't know if/when I will be able to fix this because I did not have much initial luck.

Looking for a gas-with-mass mod that's current (as of January 2023), features realistic mass, has an NPC toggle, works with modded tanks, and doesn't break all tank inventory? Try " Heavy Gas "

Would be nice if this mod had different mass for hydrogen and oxygen ! Oxygen liquid should be about 1235 kg/m3 and hydorgen liquid 71 kg/m3. Anyway, do you have any recommended companion mod, to rebalance the hydrogen tank capacity with this one ?

Any way to make it so this doesn't turn NPC ships into falling anvils?

My ship without mode: 2035312
With correct masses: 14647289
With Masses: 42574884 O_o

So should this mod now be renamed "Gasses With Hardcore Masses", or all here OK?

There is no error in this mod??
Did you miss read it?

Look at the pictures provided previously

117,385 kg empty ship
+10,000 kg Ice
=
127,585 kg approx. combined weight

Note that it is 200kg over with ice, so there is already errors in this 'test'.

Now with gas
204,624L of hydrogen at 1kg per 10L thus we have..
20,462 kg of gas

117,385 kg empty ship
+20,462 kg gas
=
137,847 kg

The picture says 138,048 kg again that’s the SAME 200kg difference.
So we can easily conclude there is NO error in the maths here.
The 200kg, that is nothing on this scale, could just be player weight changes lol

Someone please prove that this bug exists. :D

Anyone have a link for Gases with Correct Masses?

I can't find "Gases with Correct Masses". Does H2 have mass without this mod now? I am all for realism and would like to try this mod.

This mod should be deprecated. The weights are no longer correct. Use "Gases with Correct Masses" instead.

Looking forward to trying this out!
