Howdy, I'd like to make a small compatibility mod to enable (set = to true) on some buildings added by another mod. I believe I can check that a mod is installed by doing

Code: Select all

if (mods or script.active_mods) ["UndergroundTanks"] then {}

but after that I'm lost.

The buildings are all extra fluid tanks added by UndergroundTanks.

As the title says Id like to just modify these buildings to enable them to work in Space Exploration's space surfaces, which I believe is done with the `se_allow_in_space` attribute.

Thank you!

As far as I'm aware, the flag is applied in data stage, so this code should work:

Code: Select all

if mods["UndergroundTanks"] then
  data.raw["storage-tank"]["6x6-underground-tank"].se_allow_in_space = true
  data.raw["storage-tank"]["5x5-underground-tank"].se_allow_in_space = true
  data.raw["storage-tank"]["4x4-underground-tank"].se_allow_in_space = true
end
