Cinder Fix (and tweaks)

Spoiler

Version

A18,A19,A20

may work on earlier versions too

Info

Spoiler

Did you ever wondered why all cinder blocks gave the same amount of stone, no matter if theres one cinder or five of them?
I do, so lets fix it! I did some calculations and recreated those cinders to make more sense.

There are two versions of this mod (use only one):
1. Cinder Fix
2. Cinder Fix and tweaks

Cinder Fix:
- small      (1) cinder harvest 3 stone
- medium (3) cinders harvest 9 stone
- big          (5) cinders harvest 15 stone

Tweaked version:
- includes Cinder Fix
- add option to pickup cinder blocks and smelt them directly in furnace:
     - small      (1) cinder smelt like 4 stone (20 stone in furnace)
     - medium (3) cinders smelt like 12 stone (60 stone in furnace)
     - big          (5) cinders smelt like 20 stone (100 stone in furnace)
- add option to also pickup and smelt iron scrap piles:
     - smelt like 17 iron scrap (harvest give only 15)
- add option to pickup ember piles (burned wood) and use it as fuel.

Give back my Blunderbuss!

Spoiler

Version

A20

Spoiler

Were you angry they removed Blunderbuss in A20, just like me?
I was so angry, that i decided to return it back, and here it is.
i tried my best to return in wholly, fortunately some parts were not completely removed from game (model, animations, sounds), what was missing i ported from A19 to A20. i hope i find all parts
if you find any problem, or something missing (i tried even perks to turn back), then tell me and ill look, if it can be fixed or not (or ill tell you i dont know ).

instalation:
just extract into Mods folder
must be probably on both sides (client and server), as there are added also icons

Some great mods especially the Table Saw

 

Maybe have a look at Khaines mod for inspiration  https://7daystodiemods.com/log-spikes/

well.. i already did something similar, code for them is still inside game, just marked as inactive and icons i can take from older version.

thats the way if i add them, bud if i want to mantain it as server-only friendly, i need to find a way how to use existing icon. inside variable helper is shape same, and when you open creative menu, theres too and with material image in background.. thats what ill try to figure out (no luck for now, but its late night, so ill try tomorrow).

Could simply do an addon for those of us that don't care about it being server-only?   I go both ways haha, it's nice to have a purely server only config available but then having some of the client asset mods does give some really cool stuff!

i think ill do both if i manage to findout how that Cone icon works

for now i finished version with icons

[Cronosus]

just did some experiments, i cant figure this (cone with background)

 

but for now i did this

with icons (client side)

without icons (server-side)

That's really clever for the server side stuff, well done, can't wait to try it

 

Maybe @arramus has some more detailed idea on other materials that may come from trees, maybe to fit in with some of hit mods

There should be quite a lot of different applications for an extended Forestry Mod from all parts of the trees.

 

- Tree Resin as a natural salve for infection or for stabilising deep wounds.

- Resin replacement for fat for making flaming torches.

- Resin replacement for burning arrows/bolts.

- Resin to add a burning buff feature to wooden cone spikes.

- Extract sap to make an edible syrup for pancakes/hotcakes.

 

as possible examples.

 

[Cronosus]

new version of Forestry out.

i figured background icon can be placed only on "shapes", i managed to recreate it partially, but was unable to apply it on logspikes, so i kept it as colored icon.

check changelog for the rest

@Cronosus Hello, I'm using your forestry mod but I have had issues when trying to scrap plant fiber clothing... I get an error stating that EXC: Division equals zero. Possible mod conflicts? I believe I don't have any items that would cause that.

ill look into it, but it really looks like some sort of conflict

 

edit: tested and no error. must be conflict with something else.

My apologies I forgot to update it. Yeah I found the issue, thank you for testing though! Appreciate the work.

[Cronosus]

not-so small project i did for a while. i had hard time to figure how forge works, but finally i managed to add new material and its Steel.. as why not make even steel smeltable right? i did it to make those sometime useless steel parts to be reusable for something else.

i'm basically finished. i had really hard time.

as parts cannot be smelted directly, i used recipes instead, where you can craft steel from them, then you simply put that steel into forge (like scrap iron)

i tried to figure a way, but anything i changed just make those items unscrappable, so this was the best solution. also i added some recipes to craft parts in forge again from steel. (i probably do two versions, one with and one without those recipes)

anyway.. soon to be here

also did some changes in Forestry mod (mainly cleanup and sorting in tableSaw.

ill be doing another changes soon in it, so it will be here after that

[Cronosus]

New mod added, Forestry updated with few new things

Mod logs from tree

the reciepe "woodBranchBundled" is taged as learnable, but there is no way to unlock it. so you cant craft it but need it for an stone axe. Just need to delete tags="learnable" and all seems fine.
