Something awesome just happened

Modded

So I had this silly but annoying problem with my base: The lights.

Couldnt leave them on, couldnt leave them off. Couldnt go all the way around my base and turn them on one by one and then another lap to turn them off. Plus there was the extra load on the generator.

I looked for mods but didnt quite find a clean fix. So I asked one of the chat AIs to write me a mod. A few minutes later I had a mod zip file just like that. With a nice readme file, explaining what it does exactly and how can i modify things as i liked.

So what it does is binding all nearby lights to a hotkey. Every light within a certain radius turn on and off with one button. The extra lights I didnt need I just took their lamps out and that was it.

I know its such a trivial problem for many people but I think its so cool, and a bit scary that AIs can write a custum mod from scratch in a matter of minutes.
