g Same but for capacity?

8 months ago

Now do the same but increase rocket capacity with quality! With +20% for each quality level :)

The rocket capacity is a global value that I believe cannot be overwritten on a per-entity basis.

And, unfortunately - the devs refuse to change it.

well yes and no, its not an utility sprite, rocket silos just have two progress bars, however you can modify on a per-entity basis how much "extra parts" can be stored, which effectively means how many rockets you can fit you just don't see the fancy progress bar.

i'm doing that in this mod of mine, happened to land on this mod since one of my users requested compatibility for it, mine currently gives a +1 rocket boost per quality.level but you should be able to adapt the code for your own needs just fine, note that the number doesn't have to be a full rocket it just has to be a number of parts so you can boost (assuming the vanilla rocket needs 50 parts per rocket) in 2% increments.

I guess then, it depends on what you mean by rocket capacity.
Do you mean the max. cargo weight of a rocket, or the number of rockets in a rocket silo? (talking to everyone else here)

in my case i meant capacity of rockets within the silo, but i suppose rocket lift weight is another valid interpretation and in second glance it does look like that is what this thread was about
