Biosculpter Pod and Neural Supercharger Variations

Description
Description
Adds differently sized variations of the Biosculpter Pod and the Neural Supercharger to the game.

Unlike my other mod "Biosculpter Pod and Neural Supercharger Resize", Variations adds new buildings instead of resizing the existing buildings, as well as adding a lot of settings for far-reaching customizability.

Yes, you can have all sizes at the same time!


Available dimensions for Biosculpter Pod are:
3x2 (standard), 2x2 (left), 2x2 (right), 1x2, 1x3

Available dimensions for Neural Supercharger are:
1x3 (standard), 1x2


Includes many settings to adjust Biosculpter Pods, Neural Superchargers and Sleep Accelerator to your liking!

Changing some settings requires reloading the game.

Biosculpter Pod interaction spots can overlap. This is set as the default behaviour when using this mod, the setting for it has been removed.

---

Notes:
Should be safe to add to an ongoing game, but as always I recommend creating a backup save.
In case of removing the mod from the game - once again, create a backup save! - take utmost care in ensuring that none of your colonists is in a modded Biosculpter Pod, as these colonists will be removed from the game when the building stops existing! It is recommended to deconstruct all modded Biosculpter Pods and Neural Superchargers before disabling the mod.
(In other words, do this at your own risk.)

You say you "reworked the sizes": in this mod all differently sized variations of the pod and the charger are available for building at the same time via the build menu, just like you would choose different materials for walls, for example.

(Settings can be set per variation, this is because some people may wish to balance smaller pods by making them slower or such.)

Hi, I'm having some issues with this mod. The "Incompatible" Mods listed above were working for me, but when I disabled them and enabled this one. nothing is "sticking." I've reworked the sizes of the biosculpting pods, etc, but when I save, restart the game, and load, it stays the same as vanilla. Any advice?
Thanks in Advance

Best settings menu I have seen in a while, compact, intuitive and detailed, great job there!

Is a compatibility issue with Selective Regeneration, should have been fixed, but it seems somethign was - probably accidentally - reverted. Dropped a comment on their mod

Hi! I'm getting this error thrown into the log: https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/381854f50f49bf34234c44443e6e2966

If you could take a look whenever you've got the spare time, it'd be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for the mod!

Thank you

@GoSu
I appreciate the thought, but I don't take donations, thanks though

I did not think that me saying what I said would offend you as much as it did, and I'm genuenly sorry for that. You can make whatever mods you want, man, popularity is a complete non-issue. I myself only have made 1 mod with more than 300 subscribers. What I was trying to say was that I personally didn't see much of a need for me to potentially break compatibility with Faster Biosculpter Pods to accomodate Biosculpter Pod and Neural Supercharger Variations. But your pull request showed me that I didn't need to break compatibility at all. I had no idea about interfaces. Your pull request has been graciously accepted and Selective Bioregeneration is now compatible with Biosculpter Pod and Neural Supercharger Variations. Thank you. And again, I'm sorry.

I don't care if there's a large "market" or not, there are more than two thousand subscribers and at least one who wishes to use both this mod and your newly created one together, so I'm looking for a solution to make that happen.
Variations includes its own settings apart from Faster BP, because it allows modifying each version of the buildings, this was impossible to make compatible with Faster BP. It was requested and I considered it a useful idea - it is optional as settings can be copied to all at once as well, if desired.

Finally, your tone comes off as insulting the work I put into this, you may not see the use in this mod, that does not mean others don't either. Faster BP and Resize got their purpose and work together, when using Variations though, both of them are incompatible and redundant.

I have created a pull request with the changes I desired for your mod, with those it is compatible with Variations.
Do what you wish with it.
