Function Over Purchase (FOP)

Block pack containing modded alternative assets for DLC blocks that provide unique functionality be it PCU savings, ease of use or just functions you cant find otherwise. This should let everyone do the same types of engineering.

No DLC is required for this mod pack.

I do recommend you buy the DLCs when you get a chance as they are filled with high quality models and it supports keen.

All blocks are listed as Type B in game, next to their DLC version. Build stages and LODs implemented for all of them. New warfare 3 style colored icons.

Block list (and why)

Dispenser - no vanilla alternative Vending Machine - no direct vanilla alternative Bunk Bed (small grid bed) - no direct vanilla alternative, you'd have to use a cryo and need higher tier mats Searchlight - major pcu savings, much easier than turret controller, spotlight, camera, hinge, rotor, and get 200m bonus range on small grid Emotion Controller - no vanilla alternative (nothing else can broadcast to screens) Exhaust Cap - no direct vanilla alternative ATM - only like 3 of us know you can do same actions at a store block Floor 3x3 Slab - pcu savings, esp small grid Explosive Barrel - no direct vanilla alternative (small explosion on large grid), panel access on small grid Barrel - pcu, Can use a passenger seat, but I needed a similar model for explosive anyways Bulk Cargo Container A - pcu savings and helps a lot with selling Modular Cargo Container - no direct vanilla alternative Cargo Terminal Half - no direct vanilla alternative Battery Bank (lg) - no direct vanilla alternative Inset Cryo - unique ports Top Mounted Camera - no direct vanilla alternative, used in a lot of builds Warfare Ion Thrusters - Extra Mount Points Corridore Storage - unique Freight 1 2 and 3 - lots of unique sizes Storage Bins - lots of unique sizes Progammable Rack - 6 mount points vs 1 in vanilla Offset Door - unique halfblock door Angled Door A and B - unique double sided entryway Lab Small Hydrogen and Oxygen tanks - unique ports allow for smaller builds Inset Light - no vanilla alternative 5x3 and 5x5 LCDs - no direct vanilla alternative

All models are inspired by the DLC blocks but (intentionally) not as nice. The original assets were not used (except some conveyor ports/screens). Keen if there is any issue let me know and I'll resolve it.
