📋 About This Mod
This mod has two downloads(choose ONLY one):
-
[]The first one requires ONLY bepinex so it WILL work with stable branch AND legacy branch.
[
]The second one requires Nautilus so will ONLY work with stable branch.This mod will add an config slider to allow the user to select different speeds(25 is default game speed).
The faster the cutting speed the more power is drawn. Using 75(3x default) will use up 29% of a standard battery for one door.
I wanted to add the 4x speed but the laser animation gets wonky and it cuts a near square with the laser but it gives you a circular hole through the door. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ If people ask for it... I will adjust the mod.
TheDocCroc requested a harder version. So now there are speeds lower then 25(25 being normal speed). Lower is slower.
Installation
: Just unzip the file in your subnautica\bepinex\plugins directory.Bepinex only version configuration can be done out of game at bepinex\config\ViroMan. SN1. LaserCutterSpeed.cfg OR in game using ConfigManager (F5 is the default key)
NOTE:
Combined Hardmode and normal. Dawned on me it was silly having two files with minor differences in math. Also new checkbox for Linear math by request of Capti67
