PlanetwideGeneratorSupply

PlanetwideGeneratorSupply

Your power plants never run dry - the whole planet feeds them for you.

Version: 1.0.0

Game: Dyson Sphere Program 0.10.x (built against 0.10.34)

Loader: BepInEx 5.4.17+

For anyone tired of belting coal or fuel rods to every thermal plant,

fusion reactor, and artificial star. This mod tops them up straight from

your logistics network.

What it does

Every fuel-burning power generator on a planet is topped up from that

planet's logistics stations (ILS/PLS) - no belts, no manual runs. Fuel is

drawn from real station stock, so it isn't free: a station has to

actually hold the fuel for it to be used.

Covers thermal power plants, mini fusion power plants, and artificial

stars. Solar, wind, geothermal, and ray receivers are untouched.

Features

• Auto-refill thermal plants with chemical fuels (coal, plant fuel, etc.).
• Auto-refill mini fusion plants with deuterium fuel rods.
• Auto-refill artificial stars with antimatter fuel rods.
• Consume model - fuel comes from real station stock, not thin air.
• Planetwide by default - or set a limited radius to pull only from nearby stations.
• Highest-tier fuel preference - empty chambers fill with the best fuel you have in stock (toggleable).
• Nearest-station-first sourcing so the closest depot is drained first.
• Cheap - a throttled scan (not every tick), so it stays light on UPS.
• Config-only - no in-game UI; every setting lives in the BepInEx config file.

Installation

Via r2modman Mod Manager (recommended):

• Install r2modman or the Mod Manager.
• Search "Dyson Sphere Program" and set up a profile.
• Search "PlanetwideGeneratorSupply" in the Online tab and install.
• Launch the game through the mod manager.

Manual install:

• Install BepInEx 5 for Dyson Sphere Program.
• Download the latest PlanetwideGeneratorSupply-.zip from the

Releases page.

• Extract the ZIP into your Dyson Sphere Program folder so the

plugins\ path lands inside BepInEx\plugins\.

• Launch the game once. BepInEx creates

BepInEx\config\com.zicarius.PlanetwideGeneratorSupply.cfg with the defaults.

• (Optional) Edit that.cfg to taste - with the game closed, then relaunch.

Before you install

This is a BepInEx plugin - it patches the game's code at runtime using

Harmony patches.

• Only download from sources you trust. Only this mod's

page or the GitHub repo - treat

re-uploads elsewhere as unsafe.

• Game updates can break it. A DSP update may stop this mod from

working until a compatibility update is released.

• Save-safe by design. This mod stores nothing in your save. It

only tops up existing generator fuel from existing station stock while

you play. Remove it any time and your save stays vanilla - your plants

simply stop auto-refilling.

Configuration

All settings live in the BepInEx config file - there is no in-game

settings window. Edit it with the game closed, then relaunch (config is

read at launch).

| Setting | Default | Description |

|---|---|---|

| General > Enabled | true | Master switch. Off = fully inert. |

| General > SupplyThermal | true | Auto-refill thermal power plants. |

| General > SupplyFusion | true | Auto-refill mini fusion power plants. |

| General > SupplyArtificialStar | true | Auto-refill artificial stars. |

| General > PreferHighestFuelTier | true | Fill empty chambers with the highest available fuel tier (false = cheapest). |

| General > SupplyRadius | 0 | Max distance (world units) from a generator to a station. 0 = planetwide (recommended). |

| General > NearestStationFirst | true | Drain the closest eligible station first. |

| General > RefillIntervalTicks | 60 | Ticks between refill scans (~60 = 1s). Higher = cheaper. |

| Advanced > RequireStationSupplyFlag | false | If true, only pull from station slots set to Supply. |

| Advanced > VerboseScan | false | With DebugLog on, logs a periodic scan heartbeat (and nearest-station distance for sizing SupplyRadius). |
