Cables and plumbing

Descripción
Do you find it weird how pawns directly build power cables out of a single piece of steel on the bare ground in under a second ? Do you wish to run a wiring/pipe theft operation? Do you just desire to make your game slightly more complex for masochistic reasons? Well! Look no further!

I offer you Cables and plumbing, inspired by the mountains of utilities sitting in my storage in Prison Architect and my will to make the game slightly more complex. (not for masochistic reasons, unlike you)

Cables and plumbing adds two new items, all in the manufactured category:
- Electrical cables
- Pipes

And that's it!

Electrical cables can be made at the crafting spot, after unlocking electricity, from steel and cloth, and alternatively at the machining table with steel and chemfuel.
Pipes can also be made at the crafting spot from steel, and then at both the machining table and the smithy
Do note that due to improper tools, recipes at the crafting spot are inefficient, and not profitable. I advise you instead to use your trustyworthy machining table.

MOST IMPORTANTLY

Power conduits are PATCHED, and now cost you actual electrical cables! (Who would have thought?)
Same thing for waterproof conduits (except you still need another protective steel layer).


Compatibility

The awesome thing is that other utilities from mods have also been patched!

So far, you can expect proper building costs with:

- Dubs Bad Hygiene

Other mod suggestions are of course welcome!

If you encounter any errors, conflict with other mods or balance issues, please tell me in details and don't simply complain that "mod no work", bonus points if logs are present. Details and logs in bug reporting vastly help me in improving this mod.


FAQ

Q: Can i safely add/remove this from my save?
A: Add, yes. remove, yes BUT only if no items/recipes are present ANYWHERE on the map, even then i cannot guarantee anything as items are still present in hauling zones menu.

Q: CE?
A: OF COURSE. You can't hurt people with pipes though.

Q: Can I update/maintain/expand on this mod?
A: Of course. I would be more than happy to see this mod live and be expanded upon.

Q: Cable drums aren't supposed to be stored like that.
A: Organs aren't supposed to be extracted from unwilling prisoners.

This goes particularly for the art, you can dissect the xml the way you want, i do not particularly care.

Some items from the previews come from Vanilla Furniture Expanded, VFE - Props and Decor and Dubs Bad Hygiene (both great mods btw), credits to their respective authors.

MedicalPol for everything (else, of course).

A similar section to this one exists in the mod files, please keep it there when redistributing or reuploading this mod.

Late to the party but it has been updated for 1.5. And with it, i patched the vanilla hidden conduit, which takes two cables to build instead of the two steel.

This works perfectly fine in 1.5.
Just edit the About.xml file to 1.5 and you are good to go.
I can confirm it works on vanilla hidden conduits.

Can you make an optional patch for adding rubber from https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3046070864&searchtext= to the cables? Or maybe more fitting would be for the conduits that don't short circuit in the rain.

Suggestion: have two types of cables: insulated and uninsulated. Insulated cables require chemfuel + metal to craft (steel, or copper with EM Metals) and uninsulated don't require chemfuel.

Vanilla conduits are built with uninsulated cables, hence are vulnerable to the bzzzt event, however all other types of conduits (undergroun conduits for instance) use insulated cables, explaining why they don't allow the bzzzt event.
