Base In A Box 2.0.12

Deploy instant base modules from placeable objects.

    I make mods for fun but if you'd like to throw a couple of quid into my digital hat so I can buy cakes and energy drinks: https://paypal.me/pilchenstein

    Workshop version is here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=729460427

    Installation:
    If you have a previous version of the mod installed, delete it's folder from starbound/mods/
    Copy the folders pilch_sciencestation/ and modules-in-a-box/ to starbound/mods/

    Features:
    Science Station - advanced crafting table to craft new items (Made at Engineer's Table)
    Base In A Box - instantly deployable base modules for a variety of purposes
    Medical Tank - sleep in this for increased healing
    Building Scanner & Printer - scan in custom buildings and print them elsewhere
    Delayers - wired items that delay the transmission of a current
    Mechorations - a static version of the human and apex mechs for decoration
    Arcade Machine - a fully working, playable arcade cabinet
    Wiring Stuff - some extra wirable doodads

    If you want to use the "export to log" feature to add your custom buildings to the Science Station but don't feel like manually extracting the files from your log, there's an automated tool available here: https://community.playstarbound.com/threads/modules-in-a-box-custom-blueprint-extractor.138680/

    Known issues:
    Wiring is not copied, this is a limitation of the game's API unfortunately
    Standing in a building as it's being printed is asking for trouble
    Scanner cannot scan trees or unbreakable objects
    Scanning a protected area (such as an apex lab before it's forcefield is disabled) will take the furniture but leave the blocks
    Building Scanner & Printer are highly experimental, so if they break or don't behave as expected, please let me know what happened, with steps to recreate the problem if possible
    Bug reports can either be sent on the forums or emailed to darth_pingu@yahoo.co.uk

    cool mod in single player but is this MP compatible or not (OR FU compatible too)

      Author's Response
      Yeah, it works in multiplayer and should work with FU unless they've broken something
