goxmeor Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 (edited) Downloads and source: https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/396 This mod adds three craftable compasses to the game: Magnetic Compass Crafted using 1 (fired) clay bowl, 1 magnetite nugget, and 1 stick. It always points north. Alternate recipe: use 1 metal scrap instead of magnetite. Origin Compass Crafted using 1 Magnetic Compass and 2 Temporal Gears. It always points to the world's default spawn. If the default spawn has a radius, it points to the center of it. This will be the same spot for all players on the server. Relative Compass Crafted using 1 Origin Compass and 2 Temporal Gears. That means it'll cost 4 gears total. It remembers where it was crafted and always points to that spot. Known Issues Compasses don't point in the correct direction when dropped on the ground, or probably also viewed in another player's hand. Collaboration? I am no artist. If you would like to help improve the look of anything, please contact me on the Vintage Story Discord (my name is Gox.) Let's talk before you create a Pull Request?

That looks like a lot of compasses! There's nothing special about the crafting mechanics in this mod, so I have no idea how this could have happened. It looks from the action bar that this is lots of itemstacks and not a rendering bug. Can you reproduce the issue? Got a video? Can you reproduce it with no other mods installed? We've been using this mod on a couple of modded servers and haven't run into this issue before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thalius Posted April 14, 2021 Report Share Posted April 14, 2021 It happened when he had a stack of 128 nuggets in the crafting grid but only one bowl and one stick. It created a ton of them, and one he called "cursed" because once he picked it up, he could not drop it without picking it back up, and it kicked him from the game every time he did. We had to remove the mod. He also said that none of the compasses worked- they just spun irradically. At the time it was only one of two mods on the server- the other being the tradeomat mod. Nothing was installed that could have conflicted with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pennedgalaxy Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Hey I was wondering if you were considering adding the ability to name your compasses? Thst way it'll be easier to track which compass goes where, it can get very chaotic and confusing once you end up having more than one or two relative compass and I feel like this would be an excellent quality of life addition to your mod.

Thalius Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 If you could make them place-able as well, that would be fantastic! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pennedgalaxy Posted December 16, 2021 Report Share Posted December 16, 2021 The mod doesn't seem to work in regards to placing the compasses! It crashes the client when trying to do so. crash report.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
