Shreddys’ Complex Blocks
A new block template for pipes, girders, and any other block of that sort. It allows for diagonal placement and joints.
I have included the option for changing the dead ends of these pipes and girders as well. To do so, place a widget block (crafted in the industrial workbench) in front of the pipe end and it will change the pipes’ appearance, making it look like they are connecting to the background. Also, in case you forgot where you placed them, the widgets will be visible if painted pink.
The older variant that changes appearance when painted black is still in the mod (both the config file and the image), in case anyone prefers that method.
Also included is a simple light source designed to be placed between pipes for a little extra glowy animated goodness. And, to go along with the angled pipes, there are flame, poison, and water traps (crafted in the wiring station) that can point in any of the eight directions. When placing one there is an arrow indicating which direction it is pointing, but it will be invisible once in place, so it can blend in with any block.
The mod also has a few other blocks that I thought would be nice to have, such as darkness (sloped and square) and ribbon cables.
Please let me know if you see any stray pixels or general weirdness. And if you have any questions, suggestions, or comments I’d love to hear from you.
