Which screens
Backpack, workbench, chemistry station, cement mixer, and campfire. The forge is unchanged. It has its own material slots.
Craft From Chests
Craft from the claim
Players only
While a crafting screen is open, the recipe list, the have counts, and the craft button also count items in player-placed chests inside the land claim you are standing in.
If your backpack is short, the missing materials move from those chests into your backpack first, then the normal craft or upgrade runs.
What it does
What it will take
Stackable materials. Tools, weapons, and armor are never taken. A recipe that also needs a quality item still takes the stackable parts from the chests. A gyro's wheels can come from a chest. The small engine stays in your backpack.
Someone else has the chest open
On a multiplayer server the mod waits for the server to confirm each chest change. If that chest is in use, nothing is crafted or upgraded, and anything already taken stays in your backpack.
Block upgrades
Upgrading a block with a repair tool uses the same chests for wood, cobblestone, concrete, steel, and the rest.
Upgrade Bench
With the Upgrade Bench mod installed, that bench's material cost comes from the same chests. The two mods you put in the bench still have to be in the bench.
What's new
Follow updates (RSS)v1.2.0Current
- using chests for block upgrades and the Upgrade Bench is now a setting,
UpgradeFromChests, and it is off by default. Set it tooninsettings.txtto get the 1.1.x behavior back. ModInfo, site descriptions, and the README how-it-works paragraph match: crafting uses claim chests; upgrades only when that setting is on.
Older versions (v1.1.2, v1.1.1, v1.1.0, v1.0.0)
v1.1.2Download v1.1.2
- fixed items duplicating on a laggy server. The mod used to stop waiting for the server after 3 seconds and hand out the materials anyway; if the server then refused, the chest got them back too. It now waits up to 10 seconds, and materials from a chest the server still hasn't answered arrive only once the server accepts.
v1.1.1Download v1.1.1
- 7 Days 3.3. Chest contents are read from ItemGrid, and item type is a property, so opening a workstation no longer throws and chest materials count again.
v1.1.0Download v1.1.0
- gyro crafts take stackable parts such as wheels from chests even when the recipe also needs a quality item. Block upgrades, and the Upgrade Bench material cost, use those chests too.
v1.0.0Download v1.0.0
- first version.
Good to know
- Only players install it. The server needs nothing. Launch without EasyAntiCheat.
- settings.txt is each player's own copy. Restart after editing. AllowAllies lets chests in an ally's claim count too.
