[RF] Basic Bridges [b18]

1.0 VERSION AVAILABLE HERE: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1539309348

B19 VERSION (under the new name "Advanced Bridges") AVAILABLE HERE: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1514984984

"Basic Bridges," as the name so subtly suggests, allows you to build bridges. (Well, technically, you could also create piers or even a boardwalk. It's really up to you.) No special research is required. All you need is wood, stone or metal. And a bit of steel for reinforcement if you're building over deep water.

All bridges support light construction, so you can, for example, use a bridge to run a power conduit across a river. Additionally, heavy bridges (those built from stone or metal instead of from wood, which require research) will support heavy construction, so you can actually place walls on them.

Compatibility:

"Basic Bridges" can safely be added to a game in progress, but if you try to remove it from a game in which you've actually built any bridges, you will of course make the map unplayable.

The mod is compatible with "Nature's Pretty Sweet," though to be sure everything works correctly, you'll want to make sure that NPS is above "Basic Bridges" in your mod list.

If you want to be able to catch fish from your bridges, you'll need to utilize an additional mod to add that capability. Obviously, I'd suggest my own "Fishing," which is specifically designed as an add-on for this mod.

"Basic Bridges" shouldn't conflict with any other mods.

Credits:

The code in "Basic Bridges" borrows a bit from Sulusdacor's "[sd] Bridges" mod. And obviously, the mods are very similar on a conceptual level. I just decided that I wanted a simpler bridges mod, that would be fully compatible with my "Fertile Fields" mod.

The traditional Chinese language files were provided by Steam user Alane. The simplified Chinese language translation files were provided by Steam user kghostSATORI. The Japanese language files were provided by Proxyer.

License:

If you're a modpack maker and want to include "Basic Bridges" in your pack, or if you're a modder and want to use it as the basis of a derivative mod, please feel free to do so. I ask only that you let me know about it.
