Rapid Chips [StationeersLaunchPad]

Rapid Chips

This is a Plugin Mod. It requires Bepinex to be installed with the StationeersLaunchPad plugin. See: https://github.com/StationeersLaunchPad/StationeersLaunchPad --- This mod works well with the More Lines of Code mod.

Unlocks the ability for IC chips to run faster than the normal tick rate. The sleep command will actually sleep for the specified time, accurate to the next frame after the requested time (so "sleep 0" will sleep for a single frame). If you request a time longer than 0.5sec, then it'll do a normal yield until the requested time is less than 0.5sec away, then it switches to "accurate mode".

This mod also adds two new readable logic values to the IC Housing: - Flush: This value is only 1 for the first few game ticks after a world loads. Useful for having something only trigger whenever you load up a save game. - Time: Reads the current time (in seconds). This function uses the orbital simulation to calculate world time (this is so it is consistant when loading a save game), but this means that it usually doesn't start at zero when you create a new world. However, you can simply save the current time when you start up an IC chip and then subtract that number from the current time to calculate the number of seconds since the chip powered on.

NOTE: Try not to use "sleep 0" too much, most of the time you don't need things to be every frame, and "sleep 0.1" is plenty accurate enough (that's still 5x faster than normal)... but, the option is there if you really need it. EG: for a custom airlock, use yield, then once the airlock start's cycling, switch to sleep commands until it's done.
