ZTransport

Unite Your Asteroids with ZTransport

Ever wished you could lend a helping hand to a fellow Duplicant colony across the vastness of space? ZTransport makes this a reality, allowing for unprecedented inter-colony cooperation and resource management within Oxygen Not Included. This powerful mod transforms your isolated outposts into a network of interconnected settlements, enabling the seamless transfer of vital resources as if they were mere sectors of the same asteroid.

Revolutionize Colony Management

ZTransport opens up a universe of strategic possibilities. Imagine one colony producing a surplus of oxygen; with this mod, that excess can be instantly rerouted to a neighboring colony struggling to keep its Duplicants breathing. This isn’t just about sharing; it’s about creating synergistic relationships where each colony’s strengths can support another’s weaknesses.

Key Features at a Glance

• Inter-Colony Resource Exchange: Effortlessly transfer gases, liquids, and items between colonies running concurrently.
• Preservation of State: Experience the true spirit of resource sharing, as temperature, mass, and even germs are meticulously preserved during transport.
• Energy Transmission: Not only physical resources but also power can be shared, creating robust and interconnected energy grids.
• Full Element Support: No element is off-limits; transport anything your colonies can produce or require.

Seamless Integration and Usage

Setting up ZTransport is designed for accessibility. Once connected to a dedicated server (which can be hosted by one of the players), establishing a link between colonies is as simple as inputting a server address. The mod then allows for the construction of specialized Sender and Receiver buildings. By placing these at corresponding coordinates across different asteroids, you can establish direct pipelines for resources. A gas pipe connected to a Z Gas Sender on one asteroid can deliver its contents to a Z Gas Receiver on another, acting much like an advanced Gas Bridge that spans the void between your settlements.

This mod is particularly useful for coordinating efforts in larger, more complex games or when playing with friends. It fosters a dynamic environment where the success of one colony can directly contribute to the survival and prosperity of another, leading to truly unique and collaborative gameplay experiences.
