1.16.0 Necessaries - now with a repairing ability! [1.1.1]

[Gojira20]

Is there a setting/option that allows the branch cutter to collect branchy leaves, or is it only able to collect leaves. If not, could this be added? I've been trying unsuccessfully to collect branchy leaves.

[ZigTheHedge]

@Gojira20 unfortunately, Branchy leaves tend to drop sticks when broken. So, it would be infinite stick source if the Branch cutter collect it. I can patch "stick drop" out, but afterwards you won't be able to get sticks from it in any way, and that's not good. I can allow the Branch cutter to get regular (not branchy) leaves when using Branch cutter on them, but I think - that's not what you want.

[Gojira20]

Best not to bother then, it's not worth losing sticks in favour of branchy leaves drops.

[Travis Pluid]

Is there any way to make it so that breaking it with the branch cutter drops a different, but identical appearing item? Say you cut a Birch Branchy Leaves block with the Branch cutter- could you inject a bit of code that it drops a Birch Hedge or something?

[ZigTheHedge]

@Travis Pluid yeah, it’s possible, but wouldn’t it confuse players? I’ll add it as a configurable option

Just an option I thought I might toss out- it might be a bit confusing, but it maintains the ability to get sticks, AND also gives branchy leaf blocks to play with. Just seems like a good middle ground to me. Of course, it's your mod. You decide what you do with it.

[Conquest of Blocks]

@ZigTheHedge could you add an option to let admins decide how often a day a player can use the mailbox? or even an option to enable the requirement to pay for the postal service in gears.

[ZigTheHedge]

@CoB_Kai hmm... It is possible (payment for the delivery at least), but can you tell me your idea behind this?

[Conquest of Blocks]

Because people that are far away from each other often trade items via mail but this does not favour survival very much if everyone can give items to everybody anytime. I think there should be a little price that people have to pay to get items they normally would not have access to. On our roleplay server people have to choose a main profession, so the amount of items people own also often differs with their profession. A blacksmith having less vegetables than a farmer etc And most people on my server wish for this. Plus in real life you also have to pay for the postal service. Maybe the upcoming vanilla mailboxes will have this, i don't know. If not we would stick to your mailboxes, if you add this feature.

Hello, I have a lead vessel but it only lets me put water in. How do I put sulfuric acid into the vessel?

You cannot Vessel is intended to produce the acid, and you cannot move it anywhere.

So far does it seem to work ok with 1.16 as it is?

[Kuddel]

[Conquest of Blocks]

i set the mailbox limit to 2 and someone told me that he has one but cant place another because the game tells him he has two. he had one before, then we disabled the mod temporarely, he broke the question mark box. now the mod has been re-enabled. and he is getting that message. is there a way to reset the count? like unbind the current mailboxes from a player

I have this installed on 1.16 but the vine climbing is not working.

[Scout]

There's a bug with how the grindstone on the assembly is displayed in 1.16.1.

Cannot reproduce Can you make a screenshot with the exact vine which is not climbable? And make sure you haven't disabled vine climbing in configs.

Could you add in a recipe to craft branchy leaves from a stick and leaves?  I'm interested in making a tree that I can climb. 
It would still be balanced to have the branchy leaves drop the leaves and the branch.  Then you can recraft them if you like.  Not exactly "realistic", but a reasonably balanced fix.

Unrelated, in 1.17.6, I can craft and use a steel branch cutter, but the item name isn't defined.  Or, is it intended to have the steel and meteoric iron variants prohibited?

EDIT: Looking around, I think that the name issue is due to missing names in the en.json.  And, I bet the branchy leaves recipe is an easy json only add if I can figure out the leaf block names.

So, I tried adding a recipe called...

branchyleaves.json

{
    "ingredientPattern": "LS",
    recipeGroup: 1,
    "ingredients": {
      "L": {
        type: "block",
        code: "game:leaves-grown-*",
        name: "type"
      },
      "S": {
        type: "item",
        code: "game:stick",
      }
    },
    "width": 2,
    "height": 1,
    "shapeless": true,
    "output": { type: "block", code: "game:leavesbranchy-grown-{type}" }
   }

This allows me to make branchy leaves from sticks and leaves.  I humbly submit it for the next mod update.
