Conveyor Hinges - model replacement for vanilla

Description
A purely visual mod which changes the models on the vanilla hinges.

The same models as in my Conveyor Hinges mod, rotated to match and using the vanilla colliders so that there is zero physical difference.
Both mods can be used at the same time if one desires, it will be harder to tell which one is which tough xD

The tube on the model is animated to "bend" with the rotation, also flops around if there's no top part.

See it in action: https://imgur.com/7hdZxzU

Replacement of the model is done with a script instead of SBC, making this mod compatible with any mod that changes stats on the hinges.


mod io?

Absolutely brilliant for those retro builds, this needs to be a vanilla alternative option

@Digi Your comment is from February, but the last update is from January. Is it fixed, or is it not.^^ Anyways, thanks for your dedication.

Yeah I found the issue earlier aswell and it seems to do that everywhere =) I dunno what I did but clearly I broke it between testing it and publishing it :/

Surprised it took this long for someone to report it :P

Anyway, fixed now!

@Digi, I just found out these are apparently not working correctly on servers. the hinge part end of the central tube is missing and the tube won't bend when the hinge is adjusted.

Just came here to comment the same thing a hollow version would be lovely or a hollow piston version as well.

Digi I think it would be quite cool to have it hollow (or a variant that it) just so you can walk between them if you wanted to, whether it would pressurize or not

It sounds possible sure, I'm probably not gonna do it though =)

A small problem is airtightness can't traverse grids, you'll need an airvent on both sides along with the hinge heads being sealed... which introduces another problem, you can just use them without the head as a magic-forcefield-like-airlock xD
