Pistons Mod Pack~(DX-11 Ready)

Description
Adds many sizes of pistons for both small and large ships

Functionality: Pistons
Survival ready: Yes
Large: Yes
Small: Yes

DX9/DX-11 Compatible now.

Large ship variants include 1x1x1 and 1x1x5 pistons which extend to 5m and 35m.
Small ship variants include 1x1x1, 1x1x5, 3x3x1, 3x3x2 and 3x3x5 pistons, which extend to 1m, 2,5m and 7m.
3x3 wide small ship variants can convey anything.

Build costs increase with length and thickness, though not linearly. The Small/Large Tube components increase linearly in order to follow the tube length of the extended piston, more or less, whereas Steel Plates and such only increase twice as slow.

Note: this mod includes the 1x1x1 Piston which is already available as a standalone mod. It is not recommended to use both mods at the same time since the result ingame is undefined, depending highly on your load order.

Note²: for a piston to convey anything, the base must be connected to a Conveyor (a real conveyor, not just a tube), at least indirectly, and it's head must use a conveyable block as an intermediary (conveyor, cargo container, connector...).

Definitely out of date and NOT working. Mod can be marked as DEAD!

No wonder this mod doesn't work... Last updated in 2015. I'll check out a different one.

Checkout https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2369529905 instead. Way better and actually works.

hey could you do me a favor ? i just got an idea and need someone who can edit some values, can you make a copy and paste version of the regular rotor (with renaming that the regular rotors don't get affected) that has a way extended limit to how faar outwards you can moove the rotor head ? so you could basically could have levitating grids around your main grid like this buged ship https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=897628879) PLEASE tell me if it is possible

During my play through these did not work. Was able to build them just fine and they appeared to have ports, however I could not make them extend or retract. Tried tearing them down and building them again but no dice. And yes, I made sure the piston head was also built.

Not sure if it's a mod conflict or what, but I'll be passing on these in the near future.

Seems to work fine except they dont have a feed connect

Whisper...check the axis and off axis torque values. They are 0 by default. I have to change them every time I place a piston.

Would be nice to have these but is very dead pistons not responding to commands.

Last update 3 and a half years ago, so is the mod dead?
