Balanced Vault (No Vault Walls!)

The purpose of this mod is to restrict the use of vaults as walls and to also increase the cost so that they are not spammed all over the place. A vault should have 1 purpose
and 1 purpose only - that is to protect your most valuable blueprints, gear, and resources.

The mod itself is safe and stackable as it adds a new engram (Balanced Vault) rather than overwriting and replacing the default ark vault.

This vault still holds the same amount (150 slots) and has the same health as a default vault (50,000 HP) but it is the size of a large gun safe and costs considerably more to
make.

The costs alone will help deter them being used for walls as their costs have gone up more than 10x, however I have added more placement checks so that they can't be placed so
close together. Both of these will make it very difficult for someone to effectively use them as wall.

Behemoth walls were fixed a while back since people were using them for cheap walls so now its time for the vault to be fixed.

• 1000 Metal ingots
  
• 600 Cementing paste
  
• 300 Oil
  
• 1500 Polymer

Horizontal checks to placement mean that a width larger than a player is needed between each vault so that it can't be used as a wall. This means it can't be placed next to
other structures which some people might consider a bug but it is a design decision to further deter wall building.
