Space Age Overhaul - Moshine Compatibility

by jacobiz

Compatibility patch between Space Age Overhaul and the Moshine planet. Space Age Overhaul restricts several foundry casting recipes to Vulcanus (pressure 4000). This mod re-enables those recipes on Moshine as well, using a custom surface property so they remain limited to Vulcanus and Moshine only. Does nothing unless both mods are present.

Space Age Overhaul – Moshine Compatibility

A small compatibility patch between Space Age Overhaul and the Moshine planet mod.

The problem

Space Age Overhaul locks several foundry casting recipes behind a pressure requirement, effectively making them Vulcanus-only. On Moshine (which has a different pressure), these recipes become unavailable even though you have a working foundry there.

What this mod does

It re-enables the full casting recipe set on Moshine, while keeping the recipes limited to casting-enabled planets only (Vulcanus and Moshine — they will not become craftable everywhere):

  • Casting: Iron
  • Casting: Steel
  • Casting: Iron gear wheel
  • Casting: Iron stick
  • Casting: Pipe
  • Casting: Pipe to ground
  • Casting: Copper
  • Casting: Copper cable
  • Casting: Low density structure
  • Concrete from molten iron
  • Molten iron from lava
  • Molten copper from lava

This is done via a binary allows-casting surface property (0 = no casting, 1 = casting enabled), so the restriction stays clean and shows up nicely in the recipe tooltip (localized in English and Japanese).

Works alongside sao-maraxsis-compat

Both this mod and sao-maraxsis-compat share the same allows-casting property and apply the identical common recipe set, so every casting-enabled planet behaves the same way. The property is defined defensively, so the two compat mods can be installed together in any load order without conflict.

Requirements

This mod does nothing on its own — it only takeAge Overhaul and Moshine are installed.
