and if you search for one of those traits.json attributes on github you may find a list like this one https://github.com/anegostudios/vsapi/blob/7a623149c858d44f5a570f734eae14ca9a6e5d0a/Common/Entity/EntityPlayer.cs#L329-L357 oh hah the original question is from 2021!

I think the first thing I'd try would be changing the squeezeTime to 2.0, like vanilla has it. C# can be a little finicky about integers vs floats. https://github.com/anegostudios/vssurvivalmod/blob/master/CollectibleBehavior/BehaviorSqueezable.cs#L13

not sure, but it was intentionally restricted to prevent people from posting logs in the comments section. Many people just use like pastebin, and then post a link to that in the comments section. Better yet and even more common is to use Discord for such things. Many logs get posted there, either via DM or just in the the modding channels of the official VS Discord.

The rift ward is a good example of this that I've used for my own stuff https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aanegostudios%2Fvssurvivalmod riftward&type=code

Your new ingot is probably not getting past this line of code, and maybe others. Seems to me the forge is somewhat hardcoded. https://github.com/anegostudios/vssurvivalmod/blob/20fcf08a18091c735c04845e110dbec7b665d572/Block/BlockForge.cs#L36 You could try changing your "code" to "ingot-small" may or may not work otherwise, your code might have to be "ingot", and your first variant "small" in any case, after making a change that dramatic, be sure and start a new world to test

https://mods.vintagestory.at/realloy https://mods.vintagestory.at/swordz https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/2164 I'm sure there are others. Your mileage may vary.

Adding a new metal can be a pita. I've helped a couple of people work through all the details but there's quite a bit to it. My suggestion is to look at some mods that add a new metal and examine one that you like closely.

Harmony is in fact stable, and the only good way to manipulate that UI Many mods use harmony for all kinds of things.

Many search engines mostly just suck. In this case, both the modDB and Wiki are awful. Google Site Search might help...a lot. I use it almost exclusively for the wiki, but rarely have a need to search the modDB. i.e. site:https://mods.vintagestory.at crafting site:https://wiki.vintagestory.at crafting https://developers.google.com/search/docs/monitor-debug/search-operators/all-search-site I would argue that both sites should have their search boxes removed and replaced with google site search widgets (if there is no intention on improving them any time soon).

most of this would require a fairly deep dive to understand (not something I've ever looked into), and surely some monkey patching (aka harmony) to implement. https://wiki.vintagestory.at/Modding:Monkey_patching On the crafting station front, you could look and see how this modder did it. There's a "Source" button at the top of the page. https://mods.vintagestory.at/craftingtable

it is often difficult to distinguish between what is client side and what is server side. In the case of Juicy Ores though, when I run it and look at the client-debug.log, it provides some clues note the "This asset is usually only loaded Server side" messages below. To improve the mod (as in, suppress those messages), those patches would all have another entry "side": "server", which would also immediately tell you when looking at those files that they are server side patches. 29.7.2025 09:38:38.844 [VerboseDebug] Patch 0 in juicyores:patches/survival-blocktypes-stone-ore-gem.json: File game:blocktypes/stone/ore-gem.json not found.

looks like you are close. Look at this example https://github.com/SpearAndFang/primitive-survival/blob/40ac5de8339559bcde3964b3a09286eb957654ec/PrimitiveSurvival/ModSystem/blockbehavior/rightclickpickupspawnworm.cs#L55-L69 assetlocation came from here https://github.com/SpearAndFang/primitive-survival/blob/40ac5de8339559bcde3964b3a09286eb957654ec/PrimitiveSurvival/assets/primitivesurvival/entities/land/snake-pitviper.json#L2 I know it's a creature above, but assetlocation and spawning is the same. The spawning I basically sourced from here https://github.com/anegostudios/vssurvivalmod/blob/f08bd70b70c49c761aa690bff25776f5831c3a71/Item/ItemArmorStand.cs#L35-L55

probably this https://github.com/anegostudios/vsessentialsmod/blob/2fa9f1f041a13502cafc24ae34ae8833c7d37341/Systems/WorldMap/WaypointLayer/GuiDialogAddWayPoint.cs#L113 in conjunction with the wpSuggestion- entries in the lang file (i.e. en.json) also icon names might help (or not) https://wiki.vintagestory.at/VTML/en

so far so good! Wanting you to throw away your old assets and grab fresh ones from the creative inventory (or start a brand new world to test) was stressful to watch, but you figured it out more or less.. Congrats!

you looking in here? https://github.com/anegostudios/vssurvivalmod/blob/f08bd70b70c49c761aa690bff25776f5831c3a71/Block/BlockSoil.cs#L22
