The purpose of this mod is to make the 'returns' from the Oxygen Harvester, Automated Mining Unit (AMU) and Atmosphere Harvester good enough that a player might consider them worth having to deal with 'babysitting' them for a little while (by not leaving the system or teleporting around while they work). With this mod, I would consider it worth setting some up before doing the derelict freighter in a system a couple of times, for example. Without it, I would not even consider taking the time to do that.
The mod increases extraction rate and the storage capacity of Oxygen Harvesters, Atmospheric Harvesters and Automated mining Units and makes them able to be 'picked up' for redeployment elsewhere, like the portable refiner and save beacons, etc. Mod comes in 2 versions, with capacities of either 1,250 or 2,500 (choose only ONE), both of which have a fill-up time of 30 minutes.
I also increased the fuel required for them all, by a multiple of 4x for the 1250 capacity version and 8x for the 2500 capacity version. This still makes them slightly more fuel efficient than they were before, but not by nearly as much as they were with no fuel increase at all.
If you prefer the lower fuel usage, feel free to compile the mod with the fuel requirement you desire. I've made capacities, time, and fuel requirements easily changeable with variables defined at the very top of the LUA file.
NOTICE: Any Harvesters or AMU's that are in place before the mod was installed will NOT reflect all of the changes until they are picked up and placed back down. WARNING: Contents of the harvesters and AMU's are not maintained or returned to the player when they are picked up. So either empty them first, or suck up the loss.
