Adds customizable roofing, with transparent greenhouse roofing and photovoltaic solar roofing. Reworked from Vendan’s original idea.
A direct port of the Github version made by AaronCRobinson.[github.com] I take no credit for anything made in this mod.
Works on 0.19.0 as well as 1.0.0.

Features

– Transparent roofs that let almost all light through
– Solar roofs and controllers that can be used to generate power
– Removal of thick roofs
– Thick roofs (which require maintenance as of Late A17/B18)
– 4 new techs to research for each of these features.
– Disables settings when `Don’t Tempt Me!` is enabled (Vassteel Rydex’s request)

Solar Roofing and Controllers explained

– Each controller has a max output of 2500w
– Each solar tile produces 200w during full sun
– There is no limit to the number of controllers connected to a section of tiles

Roof Maintenance

– Maintenance required for thick roofs (only)
– Maintenance is a long tick (once every 2000 ticks)
– Maintenance is required after 5000 ticks (~167 days)
– After 7500 ticks collapses can occur by MTB event. (~250 days)
– MTB event is set for 3.5 days.
– These numbers are subject to change.

Compatibility

– Is compatible with any existing B19 save with no other roofing mods
– It’s recommended to have this mod load early in your mod load order

Notes

– New designators are in the `Zone` tab
– Due to how roofs are implement, it’s easiest to rezone default roofing to new types

Translations

– English
– Turkish (by Slevilex)
– Russian (by Garr Incorporated, updated by lex1975)
– French (by Jozay)
– Chinese (by Rosenmund and 不为人知的汉子)
