Bottle Emptier Total Limit
Bottle Emptier Total Limit
Set a total, lifetime mass limit (in kg) on each Bottle Emptier and Canister Emptier. When the emptier has dumped that much, it switches itself off and stays off — perfect for building liquid/gas locks: pour an exact amount at a spot and stop, instead of flooding the area.
Features
- Per-building limit in kg, set individually on each emptier.
- Lifetime/accumulated — the counter never resets per cycle.
- Stops at the exact amount — the last pour is capped so it never overshoots.
- Change the limit anytime — raising it lets the emptier resume.
- Reset the counter with one button to reuse the same emptier.
- Live progress in the side panel and as a status item: "Dumped: X / Y".
- Unlimited by default — emptiers you don’t configure behave exactly like the base game.
- Per-building and save-safe — limit and total survive save/load.
- Works on all four variants: Bottle Emptier, Canister Emptier, and the piped (conduit) versions.
How to use
- Select a built Bottle/Canister Emptier.
- In the side panel, type the total limit in kg (0 = unlimited) and press Enter.
- Dupes pour until the total is reached; then the emptier turns off and stays off.
- Raise the limit to pour more, or press "Reset counter" to reuse it.
Safe by design
- 100% runtime via the official Klei mod loader + Harmony. No game files are modified.
- Removing the mod will not break your saves — the extra data is simply ignored and the emptier returns to vanilla behaviour.
- Any mod error is logged and the game keeps loading.
