Resource Manager

by jncv87

Allows you to move or erase any resource (ore, oil fields, etc). Click the erase shortcut and select resources to erase them. Click the move shortcut and select a resource patch/field to capture it. Click the move shortcut and Shift + click to place captured resources. Moving costs a percentage of the resource, starting at 10% and increases with distance (can be changed on settings).

Resource Manager

This mod adds 2 new shortcuts, one to erase and another one to move resources.

How to use:

  • ALWAYS SAVE YOUR GAME FIRST (there is no confirmation/undo feature!)
  • Click on resource mover button, drag and select an area containing resources
  • The resources inside the selected area will be cut
  • Click again on resource mover button, hold shift and left click on target position to paste (alt selection mode)
  • To erase resources repeat but using eraser shortcut.
  • You can select multiple resources safely, only the one with highest count will be cut/erased (to deal when ore patches mix together)

Limitations:

  • The player must be physically close to the area where you want to move/erase.
  • Moved resources will lose 10% of their amount, increasing with distance up to 90%, the idea is using the mod for small adjustments and not to just bring the ore patches to your base! (you can change this in config)
