Here's the thing - I'm a huge fan of Vintage Story and especially its wilderness survival mode. I also have a keen interest in real life primitive survival. This mod is my attempt to meld the two to provide you with a more realistic early game experience, and is largely inspired by extreme survival shows like Naked & Afraid. Primitive Survival also adds plenty of end-game type elements to entertain you later on.

The in-game handbook contains more than enough information to get you started. Look under Guides - Primitive Survival: Quick Start Guide. A couple of items that are essential for this mod are stakes (used for primitive fences, weir traps and snares) and cordage (used to make limb lines, trotlines, fish baskets, snares, and monkey bridges).

You'll get a lot of new proteins from this mod.  For even more ways to cook them up, be sure to check out l33tmann's highly rated and hugely popular  A Culinary Artillery and Expanded Foods!


Now watch this somewhat outdated video or click on the spoilers below that for a deeper dive into Primitive Survival!

TRAPPING


DEADFALLS, SNARES

The deadfall and snare are very similar in nature. They are designed to kill small animals on contact. The only real difference is that the deadfall might kill a chicken or a hare (or a baby anything), while the snare might be able to take down bigger entities (like a fox or a boar) as well. In both cases:

• Larger entities (like a player or a wolf) will only take a minor amount of damage when coming into contact with one of these traps, and will trip it.
• Only a baited trap will actually attract animals to it.
• Once a trap has been tripped, you can sneak - right click to set it again (with nothing in your hand).
• You can right click on any unbaited set trap to bait it (with a wide variety of food in hand).


PIT TRAPS

While not a trap on its own, a handful of sticks can be sharpened at both ends to create a bundle of wood spikes, which can then be pushed into soft ground to create a pit of spikes. They're a little painful to walk across, and even more dangerous to fall on.

To make a fully fledged pit trap, use these same wood spikes but also push them into the sides of the top edge of your pit. Note: You can weave them together to span large areas. The next step is to add three layers of dry grass or some other plant based materials to seal up the surface. Pay attention to what it says in the hud. It walks you through the process. The final step is to add a layer of dirt or sand to the top. With proper planning, your pit cover will be 100% camouflaged which could be interesting in pvp play.

With dirt or sand in place, nearby mammals can tell that something still isn't quite right, and are attracted to your pit to investigate (increasing your odds of catching something). Note, you can also partially disassemble your pit trap by clicking on it (with nothing in your active inventory slot). Once you've started clay forming, you can make a mold for a Bed-O-Nails, which act as a much deadlier version of wood spikes (and can be placed on any surface).

See metal bucket below for the deadliest of pit traps...

FISHING

There are currently four methods for fishing - a fish basket, weir trap, limb line, and trotline. They have some similarities but also some distinct differences. In general:

• Right click to remove fish (with nothing in your hand). Careful though, if you drop them in the water they will likely escape!
• Right click on a hook or fish basket to bait it (with a wide variety of food in hand).
• Right click on a baited hook or fish basket to retrieve the bait (with nothing in your hand).
• A fish might simply steal your bait at any time and escape.


FISH BASKETS

The fish basket is pretty straightforward. Place it in water but make sure there's free blocks of water in all cardinal directions. Now hurry up and wait...and maybe one or two fish will find their way into your basket.


WEIR TRAPS

Building a weir trap is not so obvious. You simply use stakes to build a fenced in area in the water (with one open block of water in the middle), and then right click on the far side (center) stake to complete the trap.You can use the shoreline as one side of your fenced in area, so only five stakes are actually required.  You can also use a neighboring weir trap for one of your sides, in which case only 3 stakes are needed.

If the fence forms an "M" shape your trap is complete. Note: You cannot bait a weir trap.

You might want to check on your fish basket or weir trap a little more frequently than something with a hook, since fish can escape quite easily. Also note that the occasional sea shell or other trinket might drift into one of these two traps. The trotline and limb line are a little more complicated because you're also going to need hooks.


LIMB LINES AND TROTLINES

To place your limb line or trotline, face an object near water (i.e. a stake, fencepost, dirt block, tree) with cordage in hand, and right click. If you have enough cordage and there's a block to receive the far end of the cordage, you'll place a trotline. Otherwise you'll place a limb line. Once your line is in place you'll need to attach hooks (and perhaps bait them) by right clicking on a section of that line (with hook in hand). Obviously if your hook isn't in water you won't catch a fish.



HOOKS AND LURES

Hooks can be knapped with flint or one of several stones, carved from a bone, or cast in molds.

Once you've started clay forming, you can make a mold for metal fishing hooks and a mold for fishing lures. Lures are added to hooks just like baiting a hook, and like bait, they will also improve your odds of catching fish.


FILLETS, CONSUMPTION

What do I do with all these raw fish? Cook them up on a fire and eat them of course, or substitute them for meat in your favorite soup or stew!

For better inventory and cooking management, you can fillet your fish first. Worth noting that by doing so, you are removing valuable fish parts like the head, so you lose a bit of nutritional value. When you fillet a fish it may drop raw fish eggs or ovulated fish eggs. Both can be cooked or made into caviar.

FISH FARMING

Ovulated fish eggs or smaller fish can be thrown into water to replete fish stocks in that region (chunk). You'll find that areas get fished out quickly otherwise, so not doing so may force you to move to other water sources. The fish stocks in a chunk will naturally (but slowly) be replenished over time.

COSMETICS


WOODEN LANTERNS

Build some wooden lanterns to light up your life. Not as bright as other lanterns, but they look nice and don't require glass.

FIREFLIES

Ahh yes, the primitive lava lamp. Seven species of various colors and brightness levels. Make some firefly jars and place them outside on a VERY HOT night. Bait them with fruit and surround them with flowers. With any luck you'll return to a jar full of fireflies. Build the special wood jar holder to attach firefly jars to walls.

PELTS FOR DECORATION

Place unused pelts on the floor or roof or walls to liven up your abode.


FISH FOR DECORATION

Stuff and mount fish in the crafting grid, then place them on the walls of your crib.

TRANSPORTATION


RAFT

Build yourself a raft to travel on water with ease. With a raft in your active inventory slot, just jump in the water and steer your way to your destination. The raft does the rest! No need to place it, no buttons required. Jumping in shallow water helps keep you moving.  There's also a raft related easter egg if you can find it.


MONKEY BRIDGE

Make these to get across large ravines, between trees, or over lakes with ease. Tips:

  • The endpoints need to each be two blocks high.  The maximum length of a bridge is 60 blocks.
  • When you place the bridge you should be facing both of the endpoints (just like using cordage to make a trotline).
  • Click on the lower of the two blocks of an endpoint to place it.
  • You need enough pieces of monkey bridge to span the distance between the two endpoints.

If you still can't place it, try clearing any debris from around the endpoints.



CREATURES


EARTHWORMS

Collect some earthworms and put them to good use. Anywhere there's soil and a reasonable climate, you'll find worms, but you'll need to look (right click) on rocks and sticks on the ground to locate them. When you encounter a worm please remember - don't panic, breathe deeply, and maintain eye contact. Although they may look intimidating at first, they are in fact docile creatures. Handling and use:

  • Right click OR sneak right click to pick up or place a worm.
  • Eat them for a small protein boost.
  • Use them to bait your hooks or fish baskets.
  • Place them (sneak-click) on your farmland to both aerate and fertilize the soil.
  • Use them to make your own fertilizer. For example:
    • Dig a one block hole and use a hoe to turn the bottom of the hole into farmland
    • Place some worms in the hole
    • Eventually, the worms will turn that farmland into a block of pure worm castings
    • Break the block of worm castings and use those drops to fertilize your garden. Retrieve any remaining worms, wash rinse repeat.

 

Warning: Don't introduce too many worms into your garden - eventually they will over-aerate/fertilize your farmland, turning it into pure worm castings, and the soil will no longer have the structural integrity to keep your plants growing. You've been warned! Pro-tip: Worms will occasionally leave the area or are whisked away by a predator, so pick them up if you want to extend their use. They will also die in extreme temperatures if left outside.

SNAKES AND CRABS - Four species of snakes, two venomous, two docile. Two species of crabs, one land based and one water based. 


DEEP SEA CREATURES - Four unusual species that can only be seen in very deep water.


WILL-O'-WISPS - Extremely rare bioluminescent creatures, cosmetic only.


THE LIVING DEAD - "God knows it was not of this world—or no longer of this world—yet to my horror I saw in its eaten-away and bone-revealing outlines a leering, abhorrent travesty on the human shape" - H.P. Lovecraft, The Outsider

FOODSTUFFS


SMOKER -
Build a smoker, load it with firewood and trussed redmeat, bushmeat, poultry, or fish. Light it with a torch and some time later remove your smoked meats. Substantially less satiety but it stays fresh for a long time. Eat smoked meats as is or use them in your favorite soups, stews and pies.

Add smoked meat and salt to a barrel to make cured smoked meats. Lasts a LOT longer, and again you can add it to soups, stews, and pies.

JERKY - The premise here is that you can "cure" meat to create Jerky by simply cutting it up into small strips and letting it dry in the sun. So if you cut up your redmeat, bushmeat, or fish fillets, and they will start to cure automatically*. Note: You can still cook it on a fire afterwards if you like (before it cures). *Fish Jerky requires salt.


FISH, FILLETS - See the table below, and the fishing section above for more info.


CRAB MEAT, SNAKE MEAT - Harvest snake meat and crabmeat and enjoy it over a campfire or in a soup/stew.

TOOLS


EARTHWORM GRUNTER

Make an Earthworm Grunter with a stake and a knife, put it in your offhand, and with a stick in your other hand you are good to go. Sneak click while looking at the ground to start grunting and attracting earthworms. Pro-tips:

  • Forest floor is the most effective target for grunting. Barring that, the more fertile the ground the better.
  • Grunting does not work on farmland.
  • It can't be too cold or warm
  • It's much more effective when it's not raining
  • Store your grunter on a toolrack if you feel so inclined.

STORAGE


TREE HOLLOWS

Look for them anywhere new chunks of trees are spawned. Remove their contents and revisit them occasionally to see if nature has restocked them.  Chop them down and use them as primitive storage at your base.  Hold friendly contests by trying to throw rocks or shoot arrows into them.

IRRIGATION


IRRIGATION VESSEL

These function a lot like a large bucket (so that might be what you end up using it for), but you can fill an irrigation vessel with water and bury it to keep nearby farmland at optimal moisture levels.

  • Use a hammer and chisel on a storage vessel to make one (and later restore it to a storage vessel by patching it with resin).
  • Place it on the ground and click on it with a dirt block to bury it, or fill it with water first, and then bury it.
  • Top it up or refill it at any time. When there's water in it, the soil around it looks wet, and that's a visual cue that it's working.
  • It will gradually increase the moisture levels of nearby blocks and then retain those optimal levels (until the water runs out).
  • Being underground will prevent its contents from freezing, and they're easy to walk over.
  • Turn on the block info overlay if you need more help.


FURROWED LAND

Sneak click on farmland with a hoe to create a furrow for irrigation.  It's similar to a regular water source but different.

  • If you start at a water source the furrow will fill with water automatically. If not, you can easily fill your furrows with a bucket.
  • Moisture levels of nearby soil will be slightly better than a normal water source.
  • the occasional blockage will prevent moisture level improvements, and many uncleared blockages will cause bigger problems. They can be easily removed by right clicking on them.
  • Unlike normal water, pumpkins and pumpkin vines can grow on and across furrowed land.



OVERHEAD IRRIGATION PIPES - Still work in progress. Stay tuned.

EXPLOSIONS


FIREWORKS
- craft several different types of fireworks and light them up on special occasions. 

FUSES - Join fireworks together with fuses for some serious pyrotechnics. Works with ore mining bombs too!

PARTICULATOR - If you're tired of chiseling maybe give particle design a try. It's fun to play with and difficult to master, but you can create some amazing effects for around the homestead. See the particulator's gui for the deets. Build a link tool to link your particle effects to other blocks.

Check out this very cool video below courtesy of Captain Oats, that demonstrates the types of things that the particulator can do!




EVEN MORE CRAP


METAL BUCKETS
 - Build a metal bucket to move lava around, decorate your home, or maybe pour some into your pit trap to quickly dispose of undesirables. Smith a metal handle (using one of several metal types). Combine that handle with five metal plates (iron, meteoric iron, or steel) on the crafting grid to complete your bucket.

RELICS - There's some other surprises in Primitive Survival that have been intentionally left undocumented. Have a look at the Creative Inventory to get a glimpse at these "things that shall not be named". Watch the introductory video for the best clue. Three different rituals and the chance to acquire a couple of very powerful end-game relics.

BETTER STAIRS - Put stairs back in the crafting grid to convert them to/from a smarter variation of themselves. Inside corners, outside corners, and sideways corners, right side up or upside down, and sneak click to rotate. Supports all vanilla stair types.



CUSTOM MOD CONFIGURATION

For Windows users, look here:
%AppData%\VintagestoryData\ModConfig and edit primitivesurvival118.json.

You can edit this json file with your favorite text editor (or notepad) to customize your Primitive Survival experience. A few caveats - don't change the overall structure of the files or remove or add rows, only change the assigned values. You can change a true to a false, or an integer to a different integer, or a decimal to a different decimal. For example, a number like 0.3 could be changed to 0.5 or 1.0, but don't change it to .5 or 1 - keep the overall "look" of the number the same. Likewise, don't change a number like 5 to 5.5 or 6.0, it's probably expecting a whole number like 6.

If things go awry, you could delete the file completely, and the next time you start the game the file will be recreated in that same location with the original (default) values. See the spoiler below for a brief explanation of each setting.

@junawood
While I can't replicate that issue, I've shored up the pelt placing code for the next release to hopefully prevent that from happening to you. Thanks for reporting!

Dusktracer
I believe Xandu is going to address this issue on the XSkills side of things. In the interim you could set FurrowedLandEnabled to false in the modconfig (if another workaround cannot be found)

💬 Dusktracer, 22 hours ago

Posting this here as well as on the xlib/xskills mod discussion, but for VS 1.19.5, it seems that having both Primitive Survival 3.5.0 and Xskills + Xlib (0.8.0 and 0.8.1) causes the hoe to no longer til land. Removing either of the mods will allow tilling to occur again and this was tested with only these 3 mods in addition to the core mods (essentials etc).

💬 junawood, 1 day ago

I just tested placing some vanilla pelts on the ground next to each other, and sometimes I get random hovering PS pelt above them and other weird behaviours. 😵 Haven't found out yet when exactly it happens.

1.19.5/3.5, other mods disabled

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, 1 day ago

Nikuksis
I haven't tried setting it to 0, but I know that people have put a very big number in there (like 999999) to essentially disable replenishment.

And blame those damn raccoons for the knife and other oddities in the tree hollow.  They're always looting traders - especially the trader's private stock of tropical fruits...or blame the invisible birds.  idk, the tree hollow stuff seems like a bit of harmless fun - letting players get their hands on some things that they may otherwise never see during a playthrough.

Glad you're enjoying the mod!

@King_Doggo
If you click on the files tab at the top, there is a changelog column with a brief description of every change ever made.
And thanks!

💬 Nikuksis, 1 day ago

Hi! First i want to say i love the mod, it fits really well in game, thank you.
Though i think i had a bug with tree hollows, i found few when spawned and didn't have an axe, so i just looted them (and there was a pomegranate and few fresh mangos in the temperate climate and not a single mango tree in thousands blocks which was pretty weird imo.)
Another thing was - when i came back to collect those hollows they were full of loot again with manmade stuff, unless local squirrels knows how to make bronze knives, not sure this is intentional :)

Can I put 0 into TreeHollowsUpdateMinutes to disable replenishment?

💬 King_Doggo, 2 days ago

This mod is an amazing life saver my GOD I love it - All I'd ask for is a Changelog!

This really should be considered for Vanilla integration I feel.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, 2 days ago

Asturrial
hmmm.  maybe I will do something there.  But you reminded me that I made its length configurable via the modconfig file and then I promptly forgot to document that above.  Here's the setting:

MonkeyBridgeMaxLength Default: 60 blocks

and thank you!

💬 Asturrial, 2 days ago

Thanks for the awesome mod!  Can the monkey bridge length be added to the guidebook or block info? I assumed it was 128 long because the stacksize was 128. Thanks! *adds fish to smoker*

💬 Risskitty, 3 days ago

Thank you!!

@Risskitty
Oops - the red Marsh Imp was indeed uncatchable.  I've just now fixed it in the latest release. Thanks, and for the kind words!

💬 Risskitty, 4 days ago

I love playing with primitive survival and all the neat little details it adds. I've collected fireflies across different maps multiple times, but have never been able to catch the red Marsh Imp. Is there a spawn/catch condition for them?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, 5 days ago

@Xandu
woohoo! thanks!

💬 Xandu, 5 days ago

SpearAndFang I think I fixed the issue with the hoe in xskills and primitive survival.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, 5 days ago

@sodyaler
Thanks for that.  The irrigation options are ok but could definitely use some tlc.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, 5 days ago

@Wandour
Yes - known issue.  You can disable furrowed land via the modconfig file if you prefer the xSkills hoe (or BetterHoe hoe).  I tried to get this sorted a couple of times now without much success, and may revisit it again one day.

FurrowedLandEnabled Allow hoe to create furrowed land.  Disable this if you prefer xSkills farming bonus, the Better Hoe hoe, or you just don't like furrowed land.
💬 Wandour, 5 days ago

there is a conflicting bug between furrowed lands and skills - farming - extensive farming skill
for some reason your mod makes it so the hoe tool mode from xskills to not work on soil

💬 Sodyaler, Mar 16th at 11:14 PM

Hey, I've been messing with the config for furrowed land. It seems no matter what I set it to, it never goes above default values (I've been keeping the syntax the same 0.65, 0.85 for near and far) I've tested it to try and get the far value to reach 95% but no matter what number I put in, it won't go above 65% moisture for blocks that aren't directly touching the furrowed land. I've even tried watering it to "reset" or update the value to see if it was just visual, but no matter what it will slowly decline until it hits 65%. It's not really a big deal, just thought I'd let you know just in case it is a bug. Love the mod

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Mar 15th at 1:25 AM

tommylogon
I'm sorry, I don't know what to tell you.  I've only been making VERY minor changes to this mod for a long time in order to prevent any weirdness, because the game itself is undergoing much more serious changes.  In fact, I have not made any changes to fish baskets in a very long time, so it makes little sense to me that they would suddenly be broken.

Without knowing all the details about what's going on I guess I would recommend restoring from a backup and reverting the mod back to a previous version.

If you want me to investigate what happened, you could provide me with your server-main.txt and client-main.txt log files (over on the VS Discord - I go by the same name over there). Not that there is a magical fix at this point.

💬 tommylogon, Mar 14th at 5:40 PM

Hey!

 

when we started the server today after updating to 3.4.9, wooden spikes and the FISH BASKETS trap seem to be gone from our game. replaced with ? blocks and cannot be found in the block list.

 

Any tips to that one? 😅

💬 Ernie, Mar 10th at 1:19 PM

Not a problem at all, may just be a weird coincidence, just thought I'd drop a note as an FYI in case other instances appear.  Many thanks for the amazing mods SpearAndFang

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Mar 10th at 3:48 AM

@Ernie
Very strange, I only modified some entity spawning conditions.  Seemed like such a low impact and harmless change. I don't know what to say.  I did build with the absolute latest version of VS installed though, so maybe that had something to do with it.

In any case, 3.4.8 should run perfectly fine.


@Baesil
Thanks for identifying that. The two mods seem fairly far removed from each other but it's good to know in case someone else reports a similar issue.

💬 Baesil, Mar 9th at 5:52 PM

After hours of troubleshooting, it's apparently "storage options" that somehow breaks world gen when its enabled alongside PS.
Cool mod, thanks and good luck developing!

💬 Ernie, Mar 9th at 5:52 PM

After updating to 3.4.9, I had a couple of players crash on entering the server, with core graphics issues.  I managed to fix mine by setting my particles effects slider to 0, entering, then resetting it, but this didn't work for everyone.  I reverted to 3.4.8 on the server and everyone got in first try upon server reboot.  As it's not a major version, I'll just stay on 3.4.8 for now.  Unfortunately, I didn't think to grab the logs from people.

💬 Baesil, Mar 9th at 11:12 AM

SpearAndFang I'll test it some and come back if I have an idea what causes it. PS has to be conflicting with something else that makes the world gen break

💬 ManaWei, Mar 9th at 8:58 AM

SpearAndFang
Yeah I can see it being a slog of a job to do.. Just giving a heads up..
If I find something I'll let you know.. 

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Mar 9th at 7:31 AM

@ManaWei,
If you've seen any specific issues related to this mod and that one, feel free to let me know.  I spent a lot of time getting the old Wildcraft to play nice with this mod, and feel like Herbarium will have also been fixed as a result even without testing (as in, no mod conflicts).  

I'm not anxious to work on integration with that mod any time soon though.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Mar 9th at 7:25 AM

@Kara
I fixed what I could in the latest (todays) release.  Anything remaining is likely a bug in the vanilla spawning code, and can be ignored. Thanks

@Baesil
Not sure what to tell you.  I've never seen anything like that nor has anyone reported anything like that.

💬 Baesil, Mar 8th at 11:39 PM

I'm not sure how, but this mod completely stops world generation. It generates only around the starting area and nothing further, and I dont know what it's conflicting with

💬 Rileigh, Mar 1st at 4:32 AM

SpearAndFang

Thanks so much for looking into this and thanks to the VS devs as well. I figured that it had something to do with the number of mods that were loading textures all at once since I wasn't able to replicate the issue with PS or VV alone.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Mar 1st at 1:21 AM

Rileigh
The VS game devs were kind enough to do some testing related to your issue and determined that there is some sort of problem with textures and the number of mods that add new textures.  They are planning to make some changes (in the next release) to help mitigate the situation.  In the interim, I think your only option is to use less mods.  Adding this mod might also help in your situation, but I'm doubtful.

Thanks!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 29th at 3:33 PM

SuusyPower

A number of the creatures are set to despawn when there are no players nearby.  This is to help with game performance.  I believe you could prevent this by going through the assets/primitivesurvival/entities files with a text editor and removing sections that look like this:

{
        "code": "despawn", // Makes the entity despawn if there is no player within 48 blocks
        "minPlayerDistance": 48,
        "minSeconds": 50
},

I haven't had anyone else ask for such a thing so I'm not terribly interested in making this configurable otherwise, sorry!
💬 l33tmaan, Feb 29th at 5:33 AM

Look at this man, with his frequent updates and high quality of work. Magnificent. 

💬 Rileigh, Feb 28th at 9:46 PM

Hi there! This is probably because the mod hasn't been updated for the latest version yet, but I wanted to let you know that I'm getting a crashing issue when I have this mod loaded alongside Vanilla Variants and another mod that I haven't found yet. It doesn't crash when it is the only mod loaded. If I leave Primitive Survival or Vanilla Variants as the last mod to turn on when I have all my other mods on, it will begin to crash. However, just having the two turned on together doesn't cause a crash. The steps to replicate the crash are:
Go into creative mode
Type the letter 's'

The game then crashes and says it couldn't find the texture for "water_bucket".

I hope this isn't too vague, if you need me to I can do further testing to try and isolate what mod(s) might be causing this.

💬 SuusyPower, Feb 28th at 7:17 PM

I am not using spikes or bed-o-nails lol. Even have not a lot´s of animals surrounding.

I will try to update mod and try performance. Thanks for update.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 24th at 9:03 PM

@Petalwing
That update didn't touch tree hollows. And that update also didn't affect the tree hollows in my main world.

But if tree hollows (or any inventory) turn into white question mark blocks that never ends well.  It's pretty much restore your world from a backup time (if you expect to get your inventory contents back).

It sounds like the mod was not enabled or couldn't start for whatever reason. 

💬 Petalwing, Feb 24th at 8:35 PM

The latest update (3.4.7) on 1.19.3 caused all my tree hollows to appear as white question mark blocks initially. I'm not sure if those in the wild were affected. I restarted the game and the hollows' textures reappeared, but they are inaccessible.

The ones I have are primitivesurvival:block-treehollowplaced-oak-east and primitivesurvival:block-treehollowplaced-pine-east. I restarted again, but the inventory of the hollows still won't open. I tried deleting the config and restarting again, but they are still bugged.

this mod definitely makes the game easier.  But standard settings in vanilla are far too easy.  Play wilderness survival mode, no map, and soil instability.  You'll thank me later.  The mod is highly configurable and many people adjust its mod config to make it harder.

💬 RagondinMan, Feb 18th at 12:30 AM

is this mod suited for playing in a duo on the standard world settings or is it too op? 

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 17th at 7:50 PM

@Vogi
The odds of this mod causing that issue are slim to none.  I upgraded from 1.19.3 to 1.19.4-rc1 and did not have this issue. Furthermore, this error message is sooo far removed from anything that this mod has to offer:

 Value cannot be null. (Parameter 'Unable to find a texture for texture code 'back' in item game:shield-metal. Giving up. Sorry.')

What I didn't do was let that remapping tool do it's thing when the message popped up post upgrade.  I suspect that that did a number on your assets (as it often does).

Yay! Another release candidate. Loving the non-linear release cycle!  /s

Nevertheless, thanks for the bug report!

💬 Vogi, Feb 17th at 10:39 AM

Holy weirdness.  I upgraded last night and my irrigation vessels were fine - mind you none of them were buried at the time - just sitting on the floor.
I also did NOT do the remapping.  I'm not sure what was in need of remapping but every time I see that message I ignore it.  Typically causes more problems than it's worth (in my experience).

💬 PetMudstone, Feb 14th at 6:40 PM

I updated to v3.4.6 of this mod and updated to v1.19.4-rc.1 of Vintage Story. My irrigation vessels seemed to no longer have dirt covering them and were sitting in water upon loading in and when I tried to cover them up again the game froze and then crashed. Notably picking up the irrigation vessel first, putting it back down, and then covering it up with dirt worked just fine. Could just be a remapping error. Regardless, I got this crash log:

@Wizard76
There's some reasons why you might not be getting worms.  Is the temperature between 0-30C?  Are you right click picking up rocks and sticks?  Are those rocks and sticks sitting on soil?

DejFidOFF
Interesting.  Performance should be better if anything.  UNLESS...if you have a bunch of animals near spikes or bed-o-nails, then they'll all be taking damage now.  And until they are all killed off there might be a performance hit.  Once they're all dead I'd like to think that performance will mostly go back to normal.

💬 DejFidOFF, Feb 13th at 2:57 PM

updated mod from 3.4.5 to 3.4.6 at the server and all animals are lagging. Return back to 3.4.5 and everything is fine.

💬 Laerinok, Feb 13th at 9:20 AM

Ernie

It's said in the changelog of the lastest version. The particulator is disabled by default for the moment.

ParticulatorEnabled: false //because it's still got some issues in multiplayer - thanks Khana Et al.

If you want it you have to enable it in the config file.

💬 Ernie, Feb 13th at 8:14 AM

Am I going mad, or did the Particulator disappear with the latest update?  I was about to experiment with one in creative for a chimney having looked at it a few days ago, but now I can't find it in the Creative Inventory any more.  I'm in "Everything", and I'm typing "particulator" in the search, but it's no longer appearing.  I've also searched for "Primitive" to get all the stuff from the mod, but can't see it there either.  It's also not in the "Primitive Survival" section on the right.  Am I doing something wrong?  Love the mod by the way - thank you so much for making it!

💬 Wizard76, Feb 13th at 2:04 AM

I dont know if anyone else has had this issue yet, but in 1.19, Im not seeming to find any worms when picking up sticks or stones.
No snakes either. Has this been reported or noticed by anyone else?

Sorry yeah, I only added to the walking part of things. I still need to investigate the falling part of things a little more. More to come.

💬 DarkThoughts, Feb 12th at 2:57 PM

The spikes / nails are definitely working better now in regards to continuous damage from walking over them, kinda similar to the vanilla ones. But I still get the issue of drifters just taking 1 damage even after falling from massive heights directly onto them, without there being any walls to slide on.

💬 Mohl, Feb 11th at 11:08 AM

Love the mod SpearAndFang , but I've run into a minor issue. I'm trying to place a specific book in it's place, as per the introductory video, but I'm being told "you can't place this block here", despite the fact that I should be able to. I know it's not really necessary, but I got friends I want to "solve the mystery" with and not being able to use the book means the only other option is trial and error, at least to them.

💬 Dnd, Feb 11th at 3:25 AM

SpearAndFang Is there a way you could add in the config files a custom length for monkey bridges longer than 60? Just asking because of the way my world generated, the usual distance I would need is around 100.

💬 Khana, Feb 10th at 9:03 PM

💬 pudgydumpling, Feb 10th at 2:21 AM

Could you possibly make the fish from the fishing section drop regular fish when cut with the knife? Or at least make it so that they behave the same way? I can't tame animals with the fish from this mod, nor can I carry it in containers that specifically hold animal products (it doesn't recognize the PS fish as an animal product). Otherwise, fantastic mod!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 9th at 3:40 PM

@Khana,
Thanks, yeah I am aware of this issue - this is multiplayer, correct?

I'm hoping that you are able to recover from this situation.  And then not try to place any more particulators. You can set this to false in the modconfig: ParticulatorEnabled to prevent any more of these gizmos from being crafted.

💬 DarkThoughts, Feb 7th at 12:42 PM

SpearAndFang Ah, I forgot about the wall hugging thing in VS. That could be indeed the issue in regards to fall damage. I guess I have to test it with adding little ledges to make sure they don't hug walls during the fall, or have them drop in the middle of a trap during testing at least.

Edit: Unfortunately I can't confirm. I can drop drifters from over 20 blocks with just air on their sides and they just take 1 damage.

Thanks for the info and for the kind words. I'll investigate and try to make it more performant.

💬 SecretFoxfire, Feb 5th at 8:22 PM

Started using this on 1.19 (I haven't used it on past versions so I'm not sure if it's specific to 1.19 or not) and I've had a ton of freezes lasting for a few seconds or so when generating new chunks, especially ones with a lot of trees (and particularly redwoods). On a hunch I tried setting the max hollows per chunk and the hollow generation chance both to 0, and the freezes stopped happening. One of my community members also linked me a let's play video by Hypnotique, who just added PS on 1.19, and the same freezes are happening in that video. So it seems that the hollows are causing a lot of lag. I'll just leave them disabled for now, but figured you should know in case you're not aware. Thanks for all the work on the mod! I'm in love with the crabs. :D

💬 Snowfall94, Feb 5th at 7:40 AM

Just wanted to come back and comment, I deleted my VS and then reinstalled it fresh and it works fine. I guess the whole switching from my solo mods to my server mods is a bad thing like you said :/

I appreciate the help, and super glad to be using this again

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 4th at 5:12 PM

Snowfall94
I tested this mod with rivers a while ago (fishing in particular) and had no issues at all.

💬 Snowfall94, Feb 4th at 3:11 PM

I appreciate the response. I am currently doing as you said to do and hoping it helps and or works. 

Just to put it out there this happens no matter how many new worlds I create, the only time it didn't happen was when I went back to my oldest world (It's not that old I haven't been into VS for too long, also my oldest world had no mods when I first started it so i dont understand this at all lol)

 

Thank you for the help, I really don't like going without this mod, so looks like Imma be bug testing today 

Oh one last question then I'll leave you alone, is the mod Rivers compatible with this mod? Like do you by chance know if it'd mess with any of the fishing mechanics in your mod?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 4th at 7:17 AM

@Snowfall94
I do see a couple of crashes that are associated with this mod, but I'm not sure what to make of those logs in general because there's so many crashes that should have nothing to do with this mod as well - especially related to fruit trees.  It also looks like your mod loadout has been changed up quite a bit of late, and changing that loadout frequently can have some adverse effects (that is, if you're not starting a brand new world every time).

In any case, I have over 200 hours of single player using the exact same version of this mod as you (without a crash), and the version of the mod you are using is being used on 190 VS servers at this very moment.  Yet I've only had one other person report a crash like you have in your logs...and simply couldn't recreate it.  I suspected that that persons world was corrupted at that point, and probably not recoverable.

Anyways, delete your log files so they are fresh.  Check your mods folder and make sure that the only things in there are the mods that you are going to enable in game (as in, don't use the in game mod manager to disable mods).  Move the rest out of your mods folder completely. Double check to make sure you don't have two different versions of any one mod in your mods folder.  While you're in your mods folder, go up one folder level and into the cache folder.  Delete everything in there.

Highly recommend you start a new world, and once you start playing keep using the same mods for at least a few days.  The most prominent error (fruit trees) could very well be a bug in the vanilla game itself (it's been reported to the VS team several times), and if so it's probably related to changes being made during new world customization.

Long story short, idk what's going on there but it looks like it's far beyond the scope of just this mod.


💬 Snowfall94, Feb 4th at 4:52 AM

I'm constantly getting a crash to desktop error and I can't figure out what mod is causing it. The only mod being mentioned is this one though. If you could take a look at the error log and see if it's something I can to do fix it, I'd greatly appreciate it

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 27th at 5:05 PM

@DarkThoughts
Regarding spikes/nail beds - I agree that they need more work and am well aware of most of what you're saying.  Fall damage does though increase dramatically with height (I just tested it again to confirm) - what often happens though it that the entity is slowed down a lot while falling, by coming into contact with a wall.

Vanilla glider users will tell you that falling in general still has some crazy quirks, so my hope is for that to get tidied up before I revisit all of the spike/nail bed issues.

💬 Kessem, Jan 26th at 11:47 PM

SpearAndFang

Do you have a patreon or something like that, maybe a donate setup, I'm sure some of us, myself included, would like to show appriciation for your efforts, this mod is quite extansive.

💬 DarkThoughts, Jan 26th at 10:51 PM

The spikes and nail beds need some more work. Fall damage doesn't seem to really increase with height, and it just ticks once on contact and then never again unless they step off of it and on it again. You could cover an entire floor with them and they will just walk over them like nothing is there. If you instead criss cross them with slabs they kill better, but that doesn't work super well either, especially not with water streams.

As for the rot vanishing, I had the same issue in my survival testing world. I had a basket chest on a post at my farm for seeds and put the rot inside there to keep it for composting later on and when I made a barrel a while later it wasn't there anymore.

Edit: Another thing I noticed is when you water stream over the spikes, dead mobs get stuck at the end of the block, not moving further past it.

💬 Kessem, Jan 26th at 7:01 PM

SpearAndFang

Possibly so, I guess we will see down the road, I am by no means skilled in the matter, so I very well might be wrong. :D.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 26th at 8:23 AM

@Kessem,
hmmm...I'm not afraid to admit my shortcomings, but this still sounds more like a vanilla or network sync issue to me.  I only say that because the rot and the chest that it disappeared from are both vanilla at that point.

💬 Kessem, Jan 26th at 6:58 AM

SpearAndFang

I don't believe that's the case. I had rot I got from clearing a blockage, 1L, nothing else. I put it in a chest and close the chest, then I open the chest and it is no longer there.

This is unlike the item ghost dupe that happened to me where I shift transfer an item while having more than one container open and it appears in both, but once you pick it up one stack goes away.

It might be related, or stem from the same mechanism, but the behaviour is a bit different.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 26th at 4:52 AM

@Kessem
This sounds like the item duplication bug that people have been experiencing in vanilla.  If you get items from a blockage in two different slots and then one disappears, then that is likely it.  I've seen it happen with vanilla items as well.

💬 Kessem, Jan 25th at 10:54 PM

SpearAndFang

Not sure if this is intentional, or a bug, but when you clear blockage from a farrow, it sometimes give you a yield such as sticks or rot.

Thing is, the item given disappears after a while, as if it never existed.

 

Love your mod, and thanks for your efforts.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 24th at 5:30 AM

HellToKitty
The big issue I'm having with the ice is that this mod is relatively stable because it's light touch - I tried to distance what's happening in this mod from what happens in vanilla.  To override the way ice forms and melts normally in game violates this philosophy and can lead to other unforseen issues.  

As for fishing - yeah I agree that fishing is too easy - it also seems that fishing got easier with later releases of the game even though I haven't changed anything related to that in the mod.  Regardless, there's something like 23 settings in the modconfig file that can be tweaked so that fishing is more to your liking. 

💬 HellToKitty, Jan 23rd at 7:45 PM

@SpearAndFang

Thanks for the reply. I know that water doesn't freeze over when you put a dirt block on top. But when you bridge water with a gap of one block in between the water blocks do freeze over like in reality. Since I connected small islands with the monkeybridge (also not on top of the water but one block above) It kinda looks weird that a line of water follows the bridge in an otherwhise fully frozen lake. It's mainly an optical issue with only little gameplay relevance but it breaks the immersion.

I still don't know if the fact that my limb lines and trotlines never freeze over is a bug only I encounter or made by design. If it is a design chioce I think it is very over powered. It basicly made food preservation unnecessary. I don't know how the catch rate is calculated but I fish in a very big lake and I virtualy never run out of fish with only two lines and a few traps and I don't even have to ever use bait. I strongly suggest to limit the chances of catching fish with no bait by a lot.

Solving the issue of unfreezable trot lines would also open the possiblity for ice fishing with maybe some nice new posiblities and features like fishing form a hole in the ice crust with a spear.

Thanks for the support of one of the greatest games ever :)

Found out what was causing the issue, its Vanilla Variants causing Primitive Survival to load wonky.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 21st at 3:59 PM

@Donovar
Well I'm all out of ideas.  My best suggestion would be 

1. Ensure you have the correct mod version for your game version. Mod version 3.3.0 for the VS 1.18 stable releases, mod version 3.4.5 for the 1.19 releases.
2. In mod manager, click "Open Mods Folder". Then exit the game completely.
3. Make sure things in your mods folder are neat and tidy - no more than one version of this mod, and the mod should be zipped.
4. While your in the mod folder, go up one folder level and into the Cache folder. Delete everything inside that folder.
5. Start the game, go back in the mod manager and click the "reload mods" button.

Failing that, I'd need to get a look at your log files - namely server-main.txt and client-main.txt.  They are in a folder called logs next to where your mods and cache folder are.  You can drop them here
https://www.vintagestory.at/forums/topic/2399-primitive-survival/
or PM me on the VS Discord (I have the same name over there)

1. turn on Settings - Interface - Developer Mode
2. turn on Settings - Dev - Extended Debug Info

now when you hover over things with the mouse (in any inventory) you will see a bit of additional info.  In this case you should see:

There are a couple types of jellyfish, and a couple other species.  They are all purely cosmetic at this point though.  And only in very deep water.

💬 LordProstate, Jan 19th at 12:56 PM

SpearAndFang  I tried to find the deep sea creatures, but only thing that I saw were jellyfish. Are there still multiple water creatures in the game?

SpearAndFang I was using the 1.19 version.  🤥

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 18th at 2:59 PM

Berkyjay

Sounds like an installation issue or a caching problem.  Contents should definitely be showing up in game. I don't think anything will break but as always, backups will be your saving grace. 

1. Ensure you have the correct mod version for your game version. Mod version 3.3.0 for the VS 1.18 stable releases, mod version 3.4.5 for the 1.19 releases.
2. In mod manager, click "Open Mods Folder". Then exit the game completely.
3. Make sure things in your mods folder are neat and tidy - no more than one version of this mod, and the mod should be zipped.
4. While your in the mod folder, go up one folder level and into the Cache folder. Delete everything inside that folder.
5. Start the game, go back in the mod manager and click the "reload mods" button.

💬 Berkyjay, Jan 18th at 8:33 AM

I have this mod installed, but it doesn't seem like its contents is showing up in-game.  I think I installed it post-world gen.  Is that going to break anything?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 16th at 5:05 PM

@HellToKitty
Thanks! Not sure if I consider that a bug per se or vanilla cheese, since many vanilla blocks do the same thing.  throw some dirt blocks above water and no more freezing.  I feel like I could probably fix that but I'm not sure if I should..

💬 HellToKitty, Jan 16th at 4:26 PM

First of all this mod is pretty awesome. I stumbled over a bug when spanning monkey bridges over water the blocks beneath don't freeze over. It's the same with the fishing lines. They don't freeze and you have unlimited access to fish during winter although the rest of the lake is all frozen.

💬 HunterMJ, Jan 15th at 2:46 AM

Hi, Had an idea for an additional feature, poison baits for foxes, rabits, wolves and bears.

To craft, make a poison from poisonous mushrooms and combine with grain for rabbits, and meat for the rest, then place it on the ground around the farm.

Poison bait could slow the animals movement speed temporarily and do damage to health of animals over time, depending on the health damage of the original mushroom and the spoil % of the bait.

Foxes and rabbits already have attraction mechanics, I wonder if you could add those to the bears and wolves to make them move towards the bait?

Meat of the poisoned animals could be set at spoiled and the baits could decay over time to make it balanced. Also, accidental poisoning for Sheep, pigs and chickens if not kept away?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 15th at 12:01 AM

Sorry, restoring from a backup is the only way to recover that inventory.  When you disable a mod that adds new storage and then load into the game, the vanilla game removes what's stored in those storage blocks, then stomps over top of them when you leave the game.

💬 Bryserker, Jan 10th at 4:07 PM

SpearAndFang Thanks for the explanation, very clear! I didn't actually want 99%, I was just using high values for testing. I've lowered them somewhgat and changed the Frequency to 20 seconds. That helped and isn't laggy at all (so far, fingers crossed) :). Cheers!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 10th at 3:57 PM

@Aedis
I will give some consideration to your idea, thanks.
Furrowed land will in fact fill with water automatically if you create one under a waterfall for example, but I hadn't considered a slope.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 10th at 3:55 PM

@Bryserker
The changed values themselves will definitely be leveraged in the code  - whether or not they will achieve what you want to achieve is an entirely different story because there's a lot of other factors at play.  The furrows themselves are a block of water, but at FurrowedLandUpdateFrequency intervals they try to bump up water levels of immediate neighbors to FurrowedLandMinMoistureCloseIf and only if they've achieved that, then they try to bump up the neighbors neighbor to FurrowedLandMinMoistureFar.

The problem is that the weather + farmland + crop are often working to push these numbers in the opposite direction, so much so sometimes that maximum water levels are simply unachieveable.

Unless...maybe reduce FurrowedLandUpdateFrequency substantially (iirc that's 120 real life seconds by default).  Maybe try like 10 here. Hopefully things don't get too laggy.

💬 Bryserker, Jan 10th at 2:25 PM

I'm wondering if the FurrowedLandMinMoisture* settinsg don''t work or whether I'm misunderstanding.

I've tested it on different settings but neither the farmland next to the furrow, nor the farmland one over, is getting the % i'm expecting. In my current settings I've gone to setting both to:

"FurrowedLandMinMoistureClose": 0.99,
"FurrowedLandMinMoistureFar": 0.99,

Expecting this would result in 99% moisture. However, the farmland directly adjacent has 82% moisture and the farmland one over has 53%. Watering them with the water can will raise it to 100% and then it drops back down again to aproximately these values.

I have a few other mods, but I can't think of one that would interfere (though you never know, I haven't tested without them). I've tested with both furrows from a natural water source as well as furrows filled by bucket.

💬 Aedis, Jan 9th at 10:10 PM

Hello,
Are there any chances or possibilities to allow furrowed land work on slope down, when after few/several blocks of furrowed land slope of terrain lowers and would be nice to be able to create some sort of step and connect lower line too, or make reservoir on end to start new furrowed lands without need to artficially place water sources from bucket..

💬 Stroam, Jan 8th at 5:36 AM

It did work. Thank you.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 7th at 4:26 AM

Stroam
I think you can fix this one yourself.  From what I've seen that crash always happens when two versions of this mod are sitting in the mods folder - regardless of what's going on in the mod manager.  Open the mods folder, delete all but one version of the mod.  I usually tell people to delete the contents of their cache folder while they are there (so up one folder level, into cache, select all, delete).

Then go into the game and click "reload mods" just to be on the safe side.  Should work!

💬 Stroam, Jan 7th at 4:07 AM

I don't know if you are interested in fixing older version but I'm still running 1.18.15(stable) and have tried v3.3.0 and v3.2.9 and end up with:
`System.Exception: Don't know how to instantiate item of class 'itempelt' did you forget to register a mapping?`
This was with only the primitive survival mod on a fresh world. I will be switching to 1.19 once it's stable so completely understand if you just want me to update VS.

💬 Asturrial, Jan 5th at 7:03 PM

Thanks for the clarity, and low effort code makes the world go around! :)

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 5th at 5:36 AM

Asturrial
If you want to muck with fishing it's probably a lot easier to change things in the modconfig file (see custom mod configuration above)

Most notably in your case:

FishChunkDepletionRate Every time a fish is caught, you are this % less likely to catch another fish. Likewise, if a fish escapes or is released into a chunk, the chunk is repleted of fish by this same %.
FishChunkRepletionRate % that a chunk is repleted with fish, every FishChunkRepletionMinutes.
FishChunkRepletionMinutes Real life minutes before a chunk is repleted with fish (by FishChunkRepletionRate percent).
FishEggsChunkRepletionRate % that a chunk is repleted with fish when you drop ovulated fish eggs into the water in that chunk.
FishChunkMaxDepletionPercent The maximum % amount that a chunk can be depleted of fish.

I believe that the c# code uses the same variable names if you decide to go that route instead.  Aside: Apologies for the low effort code, I'm a pretty lazy coder.

"but an ovulated egg only has a 1% chance of repleting"

No that doesn't sound right at all.  It's a 1% chance every time onGroundIdle ticks, to add a bit of randomness as to when the repletion actually happens. The repletion will always happen, at FishEggsChunkRepletionRate. 

Long story short, I think that adjusting the mod config numbers will achieve everything that you want to achieve.

💬 Asturrial, Jan 5th at 12:37 AM

We're diving into the mod source code to understand the fish repletion etc since we think it's a little too easy right now and we want to tweak settings to make people suffer have fun.

Looking at the code 

https://github.com/SpearAndFang/primitive-survival/blob/main/PrimitiveSurvival/ModSystem/item/itemfisheggs.cs#L20

and

https://github.com/SpearAndFang/primitive-survival/blob/main/PrimitiveSurvival/ModSystem/item/itempsfish.cs#L44

it looks like throwing back any fish has a 10% chance of repleting, but an ovulated egg only has a 1% chance of repleting, and these chances are hardcoded.
Is that intentional? 

Also, the repletion timer for natural increase is based on the time since the server started, so if we increased it longer than the time between server restarts it would essentially never replete.

We are thinking it would be more immersive to have the max depletion rate be 100% so players who setup a massive fishfarm will hit 0 fish and have to move on for at least a time. Ideally we'd like 25-50 hours before the chunk repletes so they have to wait essentially a whole season but we restart the server every 6.

 

Thanks so much for making your code open source!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 3rd at 1:50 AM

Asturrial
There are currently 9 types of fish - you should be seeing plenty of bluegill as well (another small fish). If you are fishing in saltwater though you will only catch two different fish - bass and salmon.  All of the fish can be caught in regular water.  I had no plans on adding more fish any time soon (or seasonality), although if someone donated some models...

Yeah fishing is pretty op.  The mod (without changing the mod config) is intended more for wilderness survival mode, so higher hunger rates, no map, harder settings all round really.  Glad you tweaked the config.

The fishing was really a precursor to fish even existing in the vanilla game so I hadn't given much thought to continuing to expand it at all.

Thanks for the kind words!

💬 Asturrial, Jan 3rd at 1:35 AM

Loving the mod in a Snowball Earth server SecretFoxfire setup. Was wondering if there will be more fish types incorporated? Right now the only "small" fish we see is bass so we throw those all back to keep the spawn rate high.  And maybe seasonality to them? Would be interesting to have a salmon run every spring and a bass run every fall, everyone madly trying to catch and smoke as much as possible for the winter. Also, it seems like fishing is a little OP for us, we lowered catch rates, raised escape rates, and made unbaited hooks 1% to give people chores to do. Makes bushmeat really useful for baiting hooks.  Would be nice if the weirs and trotlines needed more maintenance, and the hooks below bronze had a small break chance based on their type.

Thanks for the awesome mod!

TRexTheHunter

I started a new world (1.19rc4) with all of the mods you had in your log file along with greatly increased tree hollow spawn rates to try and reproduce the issue. Unfortunately I could not. Makes me think it was fallout from one of the prereleases, or from a mod that you had been using and then disabled.

In any case, I've added a bit of code to hopefully prevent the crash for the next release. I just can't say when I will upload a release, the mod is in a bit of a half cooked state at the moment.

💬 Chaonic, Dec 29th 2023 at 10:22 AM

This is a great mod for so many reasons! I also love how many things you can customize in the config file!
That being said... Is it at all possible to make whether the hand of the dead drops configurable? I've found that it doesn't scale well with other light sources that require much more work with less payoff. And cheesy ways to farm them are a concern. If they were less bright than a gold/silver lined lantern, this wouldn't even be a concern.

💬 TRexTheHunter, Dec 29th 2023 at 5:24 AM

Crash report on an existing world (created with pre8 then pre10 then rc1 or rc4) AND also on a new world (did the recommendations on your post below from Dec 21st also) with v3.4.5.

Tried disableing all other mods except PS and generating a new world, nothing. tried downloading slightly older versions, still nothing (of course deleting other version each time). Its like the game doesnt even recognize it besides putting it in the mod manager? And my friends are all having the same issue, single player and multiplayer, not just me. any help would be much appriciated! :)

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 14th 2023 at 3:43 PM

Well that's a first for me.  I guess I would make sure that the game version is 1.18.15.  And maybe delete the config file so it can be recreated on startup: %AppData%\VintagestoryData\ModConfig\primitivesurvival118.json.

If it was working, then maybe that area has been mostly fished out.  If you are using a limb line or trot line, make sure that the hook is touching water. If you are using fish baskets, make sure there is water all around them.  If you are using weir traps, make sure that the area outside the entrance is water (not blocked).  See the start of the video above for examples of functional fish traps.

I'm unsure if its just a bug with the mod in general or due to one of the mods i listed.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 10th 2023 at 6:16 PM

Jeremy13621362
I just tested it and it seems fine to me.  Usage is almost identical to a wood bucket and water - no tongs required. The big difference is that it you can only use a metal bucket on a lava "source" block and when you do that source block is removed (this is intentional, to prevent infinite lava). I can only assume that your lava is not a source block.

One other person reported the same problem a while back and I could not recreate that issue then either. My best suggestion is to jump into a creative world, grab some lava and place it (i.e. in a one block hole so there's no confusion), then try and scoop up that same lava with a metal bucket.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 10th 2023 at 6:06 PM

BraniyaKz,
That would be difficult. Fishing in this mod predates fish even in vanilla, so it's entirely different than even the vanilla implementation. It would surely have to be done on my end and requires a lot of work.  Not impossible mind you - I've added fish before - but enough work that I'd want the fish assets to be integrated directly into this mod.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 6th 2023 at 9:28 PM

@Puzzled
If you make a new world, more creatures will spawn for sure.  There are basically two types of spawning possible - worldgen (which is tied to generated chunks) and runtime (which spawns creatures randomly near players).

So if you are using an existing world, there will be no worldgen spawning in chunks that are already explored.  There will still be runtime spawning. All of my creatures have both types of spawning enabled.  So there will be creatures!

In addition, some creatures also "spawn" independently of what I said above.  So earthworms and snakes for example will appear under rocks regardless of whether it's a new world or not.

BraniyaKz
Thanks for the kind words.
Although this mod plays nice (for the most part) with XSkills and has some compatibility, it often doesn't because of my approach to modding.  I try to keep my stuff one step removed from vanilla to ensure that vanilla changes are less likely to impact my mod and vice versa.  XSkills on the other hand leans into vanilla code quite heavily. 

I'll certainly make changes as required so that the two mods can coexist, but have little interest in full on integration.

💬 BraniyaKz, Dec 2nd 2023 at 5:47 PM

@SpearAndFang - So I was trying to make a teeny-tiny XSkills patch file to add "XSkillsOwnable" attribute to your smoke huts, and even though the patch applies correctly, I still don't recieve any cooking xp while smoking trussed meats in my testing. I think it may be due to how your smoke huts do their thing, as opposed to the way campfires/etc. do crafting. Something to look into I suppose, if compat with XSkills is on the roadmap. Great mod, btw! The undead critter scared my socks off when I first saw/heard it! 10/10, mah dude.

💬 rayray, Dec 2nd 2023 at 12:41 AM

yes😃 that worked clearing the cash thank you  

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 1st 2023 at 11:10 PM

@rayray
In mod manager, click "Open Mods Folder". Then exit the game completely.
Make sure things in your mods folder are neat and tidy - no more than one version of this mod, and the mod should be zipped. 
While your in the mod folder, go up one folder level and into the Cache folder.  Delete everything inside that folder.
Start the game, go back in the mod manager and click the "reload mods" button.

That will probably be enough to fix it. 

💬 rayray, Dec 1st 2023 at 7:27 PM

still nothing showing in menu in game  to make the new stuff , shows in mod launcher working ? 🙁

There are no dependencies. Are you using the correct mod version? 3.3.0 is for the VS 1.18 stable releases

💬 RiceTrispy, Nov 25th 2023 at 2:56 PM

Every time I start a world with this mod, nothing changes except how the game crashes when I exit back to the menu. Is there a dependency I'm missing?

💬 AstralDragon, Nov 25th 2023 at 12:51 AM

Alright, possibly wont get any answer to this but the raft easter egg. I actually believe I got it (A dolphin decal on the raft itself) but I don't even have a clue on what triggered it. It was actually just placed on the ground at the time it appeared with a 'splash' effect.

So, any chance I can actually understand what caused it, or at least, what its suppose to be referencing? I was going to write it off for a while til I saw my friends didn't get it as well so now curiosity peaked I have to at least attempt to understand what i came upon.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 22nd 2023 at 6:01 AM

Some things can be removed/disabled via the mod config file (see Custom Mod Configuration above).  Other assets/recipes could probably be disabled by adding this key/value pair to each of the cooresponding json files:  "enabled": false

💬 Mossywildviolets, Nov 22nd 2023 at 4:12 AM

Is there a way for me to edit this so it only has a couple features? All I want are the new animals (fish, worms, snakes, crabs, deep sea creatures), jerky, tree hollows, and irrigation vessels.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 19th 2023 at 4:12 PM

@Toudi
Thanks!

Consider setting LimbTrotlineCatchPercent and LimbTrotlineLuredCatchPercent to 0, which probably should be the defaults anyway.  This will at least make limblines/trotlines higher maintenance and force players to trade one food source for another. could also tweak FishChunkDepletion/Repletion settings.

I like that that method of fishing doesn't freeze over.  It makes it different than other methods which do freeze over.

Once animal husbandry is up and running protein is no longer an issue so I don't see much benefit to adding even more config options to fishing beyond the 23 or so that already exist. 🤷‍♂️

💬 Toudi, Nov 19th 2023 at 1:55 PM

Hi, loving this mod
would it be possible to add some kind of config that would reduce fishing during winter? or make the fish hook lines freeze over? (rationale: during winter this is a big food source - thus redues the neeed to stockpile food for winter months)

💬 CrabCrab, Nov 17th 2023 at 3:31 PM

i crave more crabs!! >{´><´}<
also amazing mod! basically vanilla at this point

💬 Joethemonk, Nov 14th 2023 at 11:07 PM

It would be awsome if the temporal,astral and etheral blocks would be craftable. I suggest that they could be craftable by sourrounding a corresponding gear with 8 stones

 

💬 litesout14, Nov 8th 2023 at 8:09 PM

Removing the cash and rebooting the game worked! I removed the mod entirely and reinstalled as well, and now it works in game.

 

Thanks a lot SpearAndFang

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 8th 2023 at 4:56 AM

litesout14
Are you using any other mods successfully? There's many things that could cause this - it sounds similar to the problem SoloBlood was facing below.  But in that case SoloBlood told me he ended up deleting his entire VintageStoryData folder (which sounds extreme, but whatever works).  Careful if it comes to that because your existing saved games are in there.

Other than that, all I can do is throw random suggestions at you - maybe something will stick.

1. In Mod Manager, is this mod enabled? 
2. In mod manager, click "Open Mods Folder".  Make sure things in there are neat and tidy - no more than one copy of this mod and the mod should be zipped. And no other folders - keep all of the mods right there in the root of that folder and exactly how they were downloaded (as in, zipped).
3. While your in the mod folder, go up one folder level and into Cache.  Delete everything inside that folder (you may have to exit the game to do so).
4. Exit the game completely and start it again.  Back in the mod manager, click reload mods.
5. Download the game again (full version) and reinstall it.
6. Create a new world and see if it works.  If so then the problem is probably related to the other world.
7. In the same folder as the Cache folder is a folder called logs.  In the logs folder, look at server-main.txt.  There should be lines like [error] or [warning] that provide a clue as to what's happening.

💬 litesout14, Nov 8th 2023 at 4:13 AM

For some reason when i load a game i can't find any recipies anywhere, not even the guide book. At first I had the wrong version, realised my mistake and changed for the right one, but it still wont load. Help pls

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 7th 2023 at 4:14 AM

New version up! 

PREEMPTIVE REPLY TO YOUR CRASH REPORT:

You are probably not using the mod version that corresponds with your game version.
mod version 3.4.0 is for the VS 1.19.0 pre-releases ONLY
mod version 3.3.0 is for the VS 1.18 stable releases

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 30th 2023 at 11:12 PM

@Whiteshadoh
There are many options in the modconfig file which you can change to make it harder to catch fish.  I will not add an option to prevent fishing in winter because...well...fishing is common in the winter irl.  

Also, people will absolutely need to hunt to progress.  Fish won't give you fat, which is pretty essential.  Or bones, feathers (which is not so essential). And if you know all the little tricks related to food in vanilla, you don't need to fish or hunt to survive.

I also recommend playing with harder vanilla options with this mod i.e. wilderness survival, so higher sat requirements + no map, that sort of thing. 

💬 Whiteshadoh, Oct 30th 2023 at 10:42 PM

Can we disable the fish from working in the winter? Its crazy OP and no one needs to hunt it seems unless i tweak the settings so barely anyone can catch fish.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 22nd 2023 at 7:01 AM

@SoloBlood
Try deleting everything inside of VintageStoryData/Cache as well.

Failing that, you can DM me on Discord (SpearAndFang) and send me some log files if you like. Maybe there's something in there that will catch my eye.  Probably server-main.txt and client-main.txt
Or post them on the forums

I have removed all mods I had installed and deleted every config under VintagestoryData/(ModConfig, ModData, & Mods), reinstalled the game. Started a new world with only PrimitiveSurvival3.3.0.  I still can not see any recipes.  I really do not know what to do besides wipe all trraces of VS from my HD and try again.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 22nd 2023 at 3:12 AM

SoloBlood
It's working fine for me with v1.18.15. I don't know what to tell you. Mod conflict maybe? No one else has reported a problem like that in single or multiplayer, and I can see that the absolute latest versions of both are currently in use on 93 servers (VS 1.18.15 + PS 3.3.0)

If you open the mod manager, make sure only one instance of Primitive Survival is listed there. If there's more than one, open the mods folder and delete the one(s) that aren't enabled.

💬 SoloBlood, Oct 22nd 2023 at 2:15 AM

Hey SpearAndFang This mod does not work with v1.18.15.  I can only see the guild in the help no recipes show up..

What were you doing at the time of the crash?  Just walking around, or interacting with a tree hollow?

Regardless, that's a pretty bold mod loadout.  Three of those mods were only released in the last 10 days I think (forlornhope, herbarium, wildcraftfruit), and the medieval mod has a couple of requirements that I don't even see on your list (https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/4964 and https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/7842).

I actually wouldn't be surprised if https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/7842 fixed this specific issue...

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 14th 2023 at 3:20 PM

Thanks for the assist @jhadred

@saxfone
So...these modconfig options are associated with an overarching and entirely independant mechanism that further restricts the odds of catching fish

"FishChunkDepletionRate": 5,
"FishChunkRepletionRate": 1,
"FishChunkRepletionMinutes": 15,
"FishEggsChunkRepletionRate": 10,
"FishChunkMaxDepletionPercent": 95,

The code does not look at bodies of water, but instead it is entirely chunk based (for performance reasons, and simplicity). The moment you remove a fish from a chunk, a number (%) between 0-100 is permanently stored in that chunk... 100-FishChunkDepletionRate.  Every time you remove another fish, it decreases by another FishChunkDepletionRate.

The lowest it can actually go is 100-FishChunkMaxDepletionPercent, and it automatically increases by FishChunkRepletionRate every FishChunkRepletionMinutes (that's irl minutes)

This magic number is not available for players to see, but the impact of this system is noticable if you rely heavily on fishing for food. In terms of realism it probably should be even more aggresive (faster depletion and/or slower repletion), but I tend to set all default settings on the easy side so that people don't think it's broken and report it as a bug.

Also, thanks so much for such a heartfelt compliment! I've never modded anything other than Vintage Story and am not much of a gamer (or coder for that matter), but I fell in love with this game and it inspired me to give a little something back.

💬 jhadred, Oct 13th 2023 at 6:54 PM

saxfone

Search the word "chunk" in here and you'll find some comments about fish balancing, server configs, and how stock is based on a chunk, there's a respawn rate, and that throwing fish and eggs back in increases the stock and discussions from SpearAndFang about the balance from experienced players and inexperienced players and why those server configs exist.  I remember seeing it recently, maybe at most a page or two back.  At the very least, it's not infinite and can run out but would slowly regrow.  I still have my traps on a large multichunk body of water so I don't think about it much.

💬 saxfone, Oct 13th 2023 at 12:53 PM

This mod is absolutely goated. One of the most perfectly-designed and -implemented mods I've come across in about 20 years of playing modded games. It should be integrated into vanilla; every part is balanced perfectly against it. It adds just the right amount of richness without adding unnecessary complexity, and it carefully avoids overlapping with vanilla mechanics in a redundant or confusing way. It perfectly gels with the overarching design goals, aesthetics, and theme of vanilla, too. You understood the assignment completely. Sublime.

Maybe my only criticism is that it's hard to tell how the fish traps are balanced (specifically: is there a limit to how many fish can latently "exist" in a given body of water, independent from the number of fish traps?) - the ingame tutorial doesn't seem to mention this. It would feel a little cheesy if you could farm infinite fish per day from a tiny pond/lake by placing traps in every available volume.

💬 Poompers, Oct 9th 2023 at 8:34 PM

Ohhh interesting, I actually did that by accident in that case, not sure how I'd do it again. Any tip on how an offering actually works? Do I just drop something in from of them?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 9th 2023 at 3:02 PM

Poompers
In the case of that altar, fish raining from the sky is a gift from the sacrifice, not a bug. What you sacrifice is up to you.

💬 Poompers, Oct 9th 2023 at 9:34 AM

Yeah I'm sorry, I'm trying to not spoil too much for the people that will try to figure them out on their own. Basically I did see that video and figured out how to puzzle my way into the two water based ones, haven't found the other pieces yet.
Currently they are both emiting some sort of particles and they do say they are completed, I'm not sure what they do but I swear at some point I had fish raining from the sky. Can't tell if that's the effect or my game bugged for a moment lol.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 9th 2023 at 3:22 AM

@Poompers
Not sure exactly what you're meaning here, but 1:45-1:55 of this video is a pretty good introduction to relics.
If you get that far, then sacrificing yourself is a proven strategy for reaping the rewards that relics provide.

💬 Poompers, Oct 9th 2023 at 1:06 AM

I managed to get two of the relics to the hovel? phase but not sure where to go from here, tried offering myself as sacrifice but not much happened lmao. Any tips?

When JapanHasRice contributed some hollows code to the mod, I added some new random things to hollows in order to test out his code.  Mostly shiny things that a raccoon might steal and hide in a hollow.

💬 AzuliBluespots, Sep 23rd 2023 at 5:59 PM

I just saw the new update, I don't have any log to help with that, sorry. If it happens again in the future, I'll be sure to share that.

Also, we found some purple sparkling loot in a hollowed tree this week 👀 Since when did those drop from tree hollows? I thought they were only from fishing baskets.

Maybe the CAN crops modder can take a look at this.  The description for that mod does not instill a lot of confidence in me..."WIP mod, only for testing now..." 🤷‍♂️
Personally I would hold off on using that mod until it gets another update. idk.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Sep 22nd 2023 at 2:29 PM

@Yuzu
hmmm...I just tried with latest game version and mod version and it seems to be working aok.  The functionality is the same as a normal bucket.  I do also get the same red text but it doesn't prevent the bucket from working. The lava you are targetting must be a full block of lava though, perhaps that is the problem?

If not, is it possible that you have a mod that is causing an issue - maybe "Blacksmith Gloves" or "No Heat Resistant Inventory" or even "xSkills"?

My only other suggestion is to test quickly like I did.  Start a new world (perhaps with less mods or only Primitive Survival enabled), switch to creative mode ( /gm 2 ), grab a metal bucket and block of lava from the inventory, place the lava in a hole and then scoop it out with the bucket.

💬 ArchiosS, Sep 22nd 2023 at 10:10 AM

i found the problem for my problem
it's a compatibility problem with "CAN crops" ^^

💬 NukoSan, Sep 22nd 2023 at 9:40 AM

HI there SpearAndFang seems like the "Better Stairs" is overriding the Slabs & Stairs recipe (1 set of stairs in 4 adjacent crafting boxes) https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/7887 ,any chance for a wee fix?

💬 ArchiosS, Sep 22nd 2023 at 8:43 AM

SpearAndFang hi ! 
the problem is that, when i deactivate primitive survival, the problem disapear, and when i reactivate it, the problem is back
so it must be a problem related to primitive survival ?-?
and in vanilla i dont have this problem too

for the worms, yeah i was maybe at >30°c
but normally, even when there is no worms, you should have a "moisture : 0%" text when you look at a farm block ? because i dont have this line :/

💬 Yuzu, Sep 22nd 2023 at 7:38 AM

Hello, I have tried using the metal bucket to move lava and I cannot figure out how to be able to even put lava in the bucket. I keep getting red text that says "It is too hot to put my hand in" whenever I try. I've tried using tongs and even flooding lava with water. I really don't know what I am supposed to do to make it work. Any help would be appreciated. 

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Sep 21st 2023 at 11:40 PM

ArchiosS
Primitive Survival does not change anything related to what happens when you transform soil into farmland, nor does it cause anything to grow on farmland.

Maybe this is another mod, maybe this is vanilla behavior. 

How hot is it where you are at though?  Worms will disappear (die) immediately if it is too hot (above 30C or so) or too cold (below 0C).  Worms will also occasionally just leave, but this happens quite rarely.

💬 ArchiosS, Sep 21st 2023 at 8:08 PM

i need help with the mod please TnT
i have a problem with soil fertility and worms
when i transform a soil into a farm
the P, N and K of the fertility drop to 0 and say it's "depleted"
it does that with every type of soil, even terra preta plus, when i transform a soil in a farm, there is a plant that pop instantly on it such as grass, horsetail, fern, things like that

and for the worms, when i try to use them to make "turricules", i put a bunch of them on a farm in a hole, and they just dispear after a few seconds, without making it a turricule block and it does "moisture" the farm too :/

can anyone help me with my problems ?
i tried the 3.2.8 and 3.2.7 version, but the problem is still the same

💬 Zerxal, Sep 15th 2023 at 3:39 AM

SpearAndFang tried something and it worked this time T_T i was so close this whole time.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Sep 15th 2023 at 2:16 AM

@Zerxal
Do you have an astral gear?  And read the hint that it provides from the necronomicon? It's not a great hint so here you go: water is required around the base of the altar.

💬 Zerxal, Sep 14th 2023 at 10:39 PM

so far i figured out 2/4 of the relics but im stumped on what to do with hydra/dagon and the "hint?" in the necronomicon doesent help could i get a hint for what im missing?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Sep 10th 2023 at 3:32 AM

@Wveth
Yup, any type of soil, any fertility. with or without grass. Better odds if you right click pickup sticks or flint, but rocks work too.  If it's above 30c or below 0c you won't find worms. Alternatively, you could make an earthworm grunter and use it on soil, or better yet forest floor.  works best if it's not raining.

@ThreeCubed
I'll certainly consider it, although it's a fair amount of work and I'd rather spend my time on other things...

💬 Wveth, Sep 10th 2023 at 3:14 AM

I love this mod, but I can't figure out how to actually get a worm. Does grass not count as soil? I've been running around right-clicking on every rock I see, but haven't found a single worm.

💬 ThreeCubed, Sep 9th 2023 at 8:10 PM

Unsure if this would be compatible but would there be a way of adding tree hollows for Wildcraft Trees? Feels weird to get hollows from only the base game trees, even though it makes sense. Not sure if there'd be a method to automatically add them, since hollows do have a unique-ish looking model? Hopefully so though, since we'd really like a Douglas Fir or Honey Locust hollow.

That and also hoping for hollows of other tree variants like ebony or purpleheart. All a hollow is is just a hole in a tree right?

💬 yrlf, Sep 9th 2023 at 7:17 PM

I definitely did not have multiple versions of the mod in the mods folder, the config file was left untouched from default.

It seems some things have combined in unfavourable ways. I have tried reproducing the issue under hermetic conditions, but haven't succeeded so far.

Thanks anyway, and I'll make world backups before updating mods from now on.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Sep 9th 2023 at 12:55 AM

yrlf
I'm sorry to hear that. But I don't *think* that this mod caused the issue, but rather was just a victim of circumstance...

1. v3.2.8 is currently running on 41 servers and has over a 1000 downloads, and nobody else has reported an issue to me.
2. The changes between v3.2.7 and v3.2.8 were not all that serious.

This sounds a lot more like the game was started without the mod enabled, or with two versions of this mod in the mods folder (even if one is disabled, this is not a good idea - always remove disabled mods completely from the mods folder).   Or another mod interfered with the loading process. Or the config file was edited incorrectly.

There's probably no coming back from this without restoring a backup.  I hope you have a backup.

Related: I'm always leery of messages related to "missing block mappings" or running the /fixmapping command. This often makes matters worse.

💬 yrlf, Sep 8th 2023 at 8:44 PM

After updating to from Primitive Survival v3.2.7 to v3.2.8 (with VintageStory 1.18.10) a lot of blocks from this mod (snares, tree hollows) have turned into white blocks with question marks on them. Downgrading back to v3.2.7 fixes the issue.

It seems either something is wrong with the new version of the mod, or it is missing some block mappings for `/fixmapping applyall` (don't know how exactly that works, haven't looked into the specifics yet; correct me if I'm wrong).

EDIT: it seems the contents of our tree hollows have disappeared by downgrading.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Sep 4th 2023 at 7:46 PM

Sorry, no. And I normally don't consider mod requests unless it's to fix something that needs fixing or it REALLY piques my interest. Modding is a way for me to unleash my creativity and I generally like to be involved in the entire process - concept to deliverable. I've also got a pretty long laundry list of things I'd like to get done on the modding front. I'd like to say that I have some contributors helping out, but the truth is that my modding efforts are mostly a one person show (with a couple of exceptions).  I'll basically credit anyone who looks in my direction.

There have been some people working on the types of things you describe, mayhaps there is something on the modDB already or coming soon.

Anyways...thanks for the appreciation. It means a lot!

💬 JaeLyn, Sep 4th 2023 at 7:04 PM

SpearAndFang I love your mod! I was wondering, any plans to add stuff for spinning (or are you or other contributors open to the idea)? There are tailoring features already, as well as a lot to draw from in the game such as existing plant and animal fiber. I could see simple stuff like a drop spindle made from a knapped whorl and a stick. You could then use animal fiber from goats, sheep, rabbits, etc either by clipping the fur or by chance of drop on the animal's death like with leather. This could be spin into yarn, or even some the existing things in the game like thread or cordage (for more advanced things like flax). Once you have slighly more advanced technology you could craft a spinning wheel, and other tools (like these: https://possumjimandelizabeth.com/xhtml/spinning_flax_tools.html) Making dye exists as well, so I could see adding that to the fun to be able to dye the clothing/yarn/fiber. I would love to see this feature as a primitive survival add!

You'll either need to follow the instructions at the very bottom of the "custom mod configuration" section above
or
Use this mod to address the issue.

I've also noticed that spawn rates have gone weird again in the newer releases of the game, and can only assume that something has changed in vanilla.  I will definitely be fixing this in my mod for the next release.

💬 Bunker, Aug 27th 2023 at 3:23 AM

So what am I doing wrong when it comes to scrambled eggs then? I put .2L of liquid egg in the first slot, nothing. Add .2L of liquid egg to the second slot so both have liquid egg, still nothing. Add in meat to the other slots, nothing.

If I have to do something else to make scrambled eggs, what?



I know the fire's gone out. I spent the entire time it takes to burn through four logs to get it to start cooking with various combinations and they all did nothing. This is when I finally, pardon the pun, cracked and took the screenshot.

If it needs more egg, I have 1L of liquid egg ready.


But yeah-- some feedback aside from the scrambled egg issue (that may be my fault) is that there should be a space between each section to make it more readable (imo).


All this aside, it has been an amazing mod. Thank you for making it!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Aug 26th 2023 at 2:25 PM

@Bunker

No plans on doing that, no. Everything edible in this mod is a protein, and if you're familiar with the vanilla cooking systems you shouldn't have much trouble cooking with them.  Whole fish, fish fillets, crab, snake, smoked meats, and smoked+cured meats are all a direct replacement for vanilla red meat. Red meat is fairly well documented here
https://wiki.vintagestory.at/index.php/Cooking and here https://wiki.vintagestory.at/index.php/Pie

Jerky is much more limited. Basically just make it, let it cure, and eat it. Same with fish eggs - not much to do there and I usually just eat them raw or make caviar (a simple crafting grid recipe).

RamenBard wXDogeKingXw
You are both the same person or are on the same multiplayer server? Because the error messages are basically the same.
Were you or someone else on the server playing with the particulator link tool at the time of the crash?  It was multiplayer, correct?
FWIW, I have about the same setup - Windows + 16GB ram + same game and mod version, and cannot recreate that in single player...so any additional about what was happening just prior to the crash might be helpful.

Other things that come to mind:
1. Ensure that there are not any other versions of this mod in the mod folder (or two copies of the same version) - disabling them in the mod manager is not enough - they need to be deleted from the mods folder.
2. Ensure that your .NET is up-to-date.  via Windows updates.
3. If you are playing multiplayer, #2 applies to the server as well.  And if the server/host is linux, ensure that mono is up-to-date.

did you watch the video?

Other than that - yeah you need one piece of cordage for each block between the two endpoints.  And maybe clear anything on the ground right next to the endpoints (including snow).  Should work for you.

💬 waterdrinker, Aug 16th 2023 at 8:49 PM

I am having an issue trying to set limb lines and trot lines. I have tried multiple objects (fences, dirt, stakes) and I have plenty of cord. I have tried with short and long distance between the two stakes. Is there some kind of trick to this or is this an error?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Aug 11th 2023 at 2:39 AM

dotyerts
yeah the raft has always had some issues, especially in multiplayer. Some people are ok with that. Other people might want to disable it via the RaftEnabled modconfig option, and use something that's much more fleshed out (like the sailboat mod).

💬 dotyerts, Aug 10th 2023 at 6:52 PM

When holding raft in one hand, you can travel at lightspeed through water. Is this intended? 

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Aug 9th 2023 at 3:27 PM

Exigent

This mod isn't terribly texture heavy, but it sounds more like your texture atlas(es) are overflowing. Maybe more textures were added to vanilla with this release?  This typically happens when you have many mods, especially texture heavy mods.  By default the game doesn't have very big atlases for performance reasons. Use these chat commands in game, and then reload the world:

.clientconfig maxTextureAtlasWidth 8192
.clientconfig maxTextureAtlasHeight 8192

This is a client side thing, so it's a safe bet that everyone will need to do this.

💬 Exigent, Aug 9th 2023 at 3:15 PM

This seems to have broken on all of me and my firends saves come the 1.18.8 update today. Textures are missing and inaccessible. Not sure if anyone else is having this issue.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Aug 8th 2023 at 5:42 PM

Salmon are an item in this mod only, not an entity.  So here

github.com/SpearAndFang/primitive-survival/blob/main/PrimitiveSurvival/PrimitiveSurvival/assets/primitivesurvival/itemtypes/fishing/psfish.json

If you're looking for the salmon entity for some reason, that is part of the vanilla game...so look in the game's asset folders.

💬 Stahl, Aug 6th 2023 at 8:53 PM

SpearAndFang

Ok, thanks for the info. For some reason all three of my pumpkins grew similarly, so I think something must have stopped them from growing further... 🤷‍♂️ I replaced the furrow with soil and water and they seem to be doing fine now. I'll let you know if I figure out something relevant.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Aug 6th 2023 at 4:11 PM

@stahl
hmm. I just tested (latest stable VS, latest mod version) and my patch seems to be working. without the patch no pumpkins would even grow. I'm seeing vines outside of the furrowed land as well.  Maybe a mod conflict or poor weather conditions?

💬 Stahl, Aug 6th 2023 at 2:45 PM

I made a furrowed farmland moat around a pumpkin but it didn't grow over it. 😓

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Aug 3rd 2023 at 3:08 PM

Moon_Dew
Sorry, I normally don't consider mod requests unless it's to fix something that needs fixing or it piques my interest. Modding is a way for me to unleash my creativity and I generally like to be involved in the entire process - concept to deliverable. I've also got a pretty long laundry list of things I'd like to get done on the modding front.

Having said that, I've certainly considered larger/live animal traps in the past so one day perhaps...

💬 Moon_Dew, Aug 3rd 2023 at 12:38 PM

Can we get some bear traps for late-game trapping?

And some non-lethal traps for capturing animals?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Aug 2nd 2023 at 3:08 PM

RagondinMan
Yes and yes. Decorative things (pelts, fireworks, fireflies, and more) aside, there's some gizmo's that will help with the day to day life around the homestead:

- Irrigation Vessel for moving liquids in barrels and for watering those really hard to grow crops
- Furrowed Land as an upgrade to water channels on your farmland
- Smoker for extending the life of your meats
- Passive fishing to help keep your protein levels up
- Earthworms for making fertilizer
- The raft as a zippier and easier to use alternative to the vanilla raft

As always, I recommend making a backup of your saved game prior to adding or removing mods.

💬 RagondinMan, Aug 2nd 2023 at 10:15 AM

can this be added mid save and if yes would it still be worth adding it in the early copper age?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 28th 2023 at 2:41 PM

SpacePerson
Not a bug, no. Those land crabs use the locust climbing behavior.  They're pretty passive though, so as long as you don't step on one or build a chicken coop nearby, you shouldn't have any problems coexisting with them.

💬 SpacePerson, Jul 28th 2023 at 7:32 AM

I can't tell if this is a bug or not, but crabs tend to hop over fences like they're regular blocks... Built a fenced in farm next to a pond and theres always hordes of land crabs jumping over the fence.

💬 l33tmaan, Jul 28th 2023 at 6:30 AM

I recommend making a rolling pin out of logs instead of using rocks! Also, that's not from this mod.

Strange bug to report? Apparently Primitive Survival is hammering the textures on bricklayers and wildcraft trees. I reported it on wildcraft trees (thought it was that mod having issues) but further testing has shown that primitive survival seems to be causing odd artifacting. 

Specifically and entirely limited to: wildcraft trees fruit trees, and bricklayers planters and glass. Outside of those the rest of the textures are fine.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 26th 2023 at 11:50 PM

💬 DandyDan, Jul 26th 2023 at 11:33 PM

Running net7 i am noticing that the recipe to smash meat is consuming the rock. It's annying in early game when i am running out of rocks for cobblestone to have to use 20 of them to smash my bushmeat for stew.

💬 Jena_Thornwyrd, Jul 25th 2023 at 11:20 AM

I confirm that the issue described in https://mods.vintagestory.at/primitivesurvival#cmt-14189 still exist. Thanks @Guayo for the temp fix !

💬 Moon_Dew, Jul 25th 2023 at 1:43 AM

ColbyFrancis IDG now has a net4-compatible version of the latest update.  Still has a few bugs (can't saw logs on the ground), but it works.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 24th 2023 at 2:07 PM

@Dmhir
Thanks for that. I was assuming all along that NET7 was the common denominator, but it may in fact be in Dappled Groves (or in Dappled Groves + NET7).  I'll investigate that combination and see what I come up with.

💬 Dmhir, Jul 24th 2023 at 7:26 AM

ColbyFrancis Doesn't In Dappled Groves add tree hollows from this mod? Seems like an obvious mod conflict or that mod with the addition of tree hollows doesn't play nicely with an experimental build of the game not fully fleshed out. I would also report the issue there. Sorry to not add anything helpful but I just thought it was worth pointing out

💬 ColbyFrancis, Jul 24th 2023 at 5:39 AM

@SpearAndFang
Yup. I would play the stable build, but a few of the mods I play with (In Dappled Groves, specifically) have updates I like that are specifically for Net 7

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 24th 2023 at 3:44 AM

ColbyFrancis
Are you also running the .NET7 (experimental) build of Vintage Story?  Because I've been playing extensively on the latest stable build of VS and tree hollows are working perfectly (single player, anyways).

💬 ColbyFrancis, Jul 24th 2023 at 3:20 AM

@UltimaHeart4
Hey! Had the same issue you were having. As it turns out the game breaks around 6 hours in--which is coincidentally the exact amount of time it takes tree hollows to refresh.

Go into your mod config (should be in your appdata's Roaming folder if you're on windows) and type "999999" in the treehollow's refresh rate. This instantly fixed all my issues, but i'm not sure if it will help you.

Seems tree hollows just do NOT want to cooperate with this game at the moment.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 22nd 2023 at 3:54 PM

TokageNeko
Sorry, I have no idea what's going on there.  As big as this mod is, it's extremely light touch when it comes to the base game.  It's simply adding new content, not really changing anything about the game itself (except a small change to the vanilla hoe).  It certainly doesn't touch player or entity damage modifiers.  I believe that CarryOn increases player hunger when you are carrying something though, but I have never had a problem with it.

As you might imagine, I playtest with all of my mods enabled a LOT (single player, latest stable VS version and mod versions) - over 40 hours in the last week alone.  I always use CarryOn as well, and a few other mods.  I have never experienced anything like what you describe, nor has anyone reported anything like this to me.

One thing I might suggest is that disabling mods via the mod manager isn't necessarily enough.  Pull those disabled mods out of your mods folder completely.  Then start the game and in the mod manager click reload mods.  It *might* also help to delete the contents of your ../vintagestorydata/cache folder.

💬 TokageNeko, Jul 22nd 2023 at 2:47 PM

SpearAndFang

Thanks for getting back to me about it, I got it to work. One other question, so I only have 2 mods installed CarryOn and this. I noticed that both my multiplayer and singleplayer games randomly started to just extremely rapid deal hunger damage once the food bar empties. Reapeated 0.13 HP damage ticks in the log causing death from full health in ~3-4 seconds when the damage starts as well as instant death at full health from animals, a single wolf attacking once and hitting 3 times in the damage log causing instant death. Base game and my multiplayer and singleplayer matches roughly a day ago didn't have this issue. Are there any hunger damage modifiers from this mod, or any idea as to what is causing this? I had momentarily installed your Zoom mod as well but uninstalled it after the issue started, but it has persisted so I am unsure if it was that.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 21st 2023 at 4:18 PM

TokageNeko
You need 8 Primitive Survival fish fillets, or 4 of the vanilla ones.  I kinda shoe-horned the PS ones in - they are half the size of the newer vanilla ones.

💬 TokageNeko, Jul 21st 2023 at 9:03 AM

Can someone please explain to me how to use the smoker? I've loaded it up with wood. I have one flax twine and 4 fish fillets but couldnt figure out how to craft the trussed meat or put it inside. 

💬 Guayo, Jul 19th 2023 at 1:31 PM

@SpearAndFang

 

Thanks for the support!

Sadly the recommendation you provided did not work, however I believe I found an alternative.

The issue with the Tree Hollows isn't so much it's item amount or it's contents, at least from what i can tell from the Server Logs. It's more about the fact the game cannot fufill it's coding about SPAWNING them in the chunks around it.

I still tried your suggestion, but it didn't work. However, I did notice the following:

 

Originally the TreeHollowUpdateMinutes was set to 360 (6 Hours), I did notice that my server consistently crashed after doing the temp fix of removing/launching/readding/launching the server with the PS mod, so I editted the UpdateMinutes to 9999 (1,600+ Hours) and have no longer experienced any crashes.

Not really a fix, I tried setting MaxPerChunk & Spawn Probability to 0 but that crashed the server outright, one of my friends suggested I change the spawn probability from 0.1 to 0.00000001 so that it doesnt break the mathematical formula but also guarantees that there is little to no chance of the spawn from occurring.

 

Ultimately though, what I believe I've done is essentially identified the cause of the crash:

  • Hollow Trees attempting to spawn, for whatever reason (albeit the logs are below in my other comment of the Event Manager, I just dont understand coding.)
  • We're unable to disable the spawning of these Hollow Tree Blocks via editing the config (There's no on/off toggle for this to my knowledge)
  • But we can manipulate how long it takes for this action/spawnrules to launch, thus we're able to essentially set the timer to an ungodly amount of time so that all that needs to be done is set the time to 9999999 or something, since Im not sure if -1 would cause it launch all the time or infinitely delay it.

 

I'm not sure if this is helpful at all, if it illuminates a way to easily fix the problem in this way, but ultimately I think this might help others who are having the same issue, until the next update that is.

Thank you again for your support! I hope this helps you someway or another.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 18th 2023 at 6:07 AM

@Guayo,
Perhaps you could eliminate the error by modifying the mod config file, like set TreeHollowsMaxItems to 0.

I'm sorry but I'm not ready to support the .NET7 version of Vintage Story just yet, If it was even a pre-release I might consider it.  But it's tucked away and tagged as experimental, with little consideration to how modders might handle two different releases on the modDB. 

That's assuming that that's even what's causing the problem.  I haven't had any other reports as serious as yours, so a mod conflict or some such isn't out of the question.  I'm still seeing this mod running on over 300 servers, so I'm a little surprised to not see other issues reported here.

💬 Guayo, Jul 18th 2023 at 3:48 AM

Hello, Im here to report that the issue has reappeared again, meaning I have to go thru the process of deleting the file, launching, then readding the mod into the server in order for it to reset the Hollow Log situation.

 

Edit: Server is soft locked now, unable to use the temporary fix anymore, when players join server logs start filling up rapidly with this error code as noted before. If there's any info I can provide to help, please let me know, thank you for your time and assistance!

 

💬 Guayo, Jul 17th 2023 at 10:31 PM

SpearAndFang

Thanks for the update!

 

However, just now when trying to play we ran into this error once more:

17.7.2023 17:34:59 [Server Fatal] System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. (Parameter 'index') at System.Collections.Generic.List1.get_Item(Int32 index) at PrimitiveSurvival.ModSystem.ShuffleBag1.Next() at PrimitiveSurvival.ModSystem.TreeHollows.MakeItemStacks(Block block, ICoreServerAPI sapi) at PrimitiveSurvival.ModSystem.BETreeHollowGrown.TreeHollowUpdate(Single par) at Vintagestory.Common.EventManager.TriggerGameTick(Int64 ellapsedMilliseconds, IWorldAccessor world) in C:\Users\Tyron\Documents\vintagestory\game-net7\VintagestoryLib\Common\EventManager.cs:line 59 at Vintagestory.Server.CoreServerEventManager.TriggerGameTick(Int64 ellapsedMilliseconds, IWorldAccessor world) in C:\Users\Tyron\Documents\vintagestory\game-net7\VintagestoryLib\Server\ServerEventManager.cs:line 124

 

This essentially was stuck on a loop as before, still breaking the server/unable to load.

 

The way I fixed it (temporarily I assume) is by disabling the server, removing the mod, launching the server...

Then, shutting down the server, re-adding the mod, and launching it once more.

 

I believe the only thing Im doing is delaying or resetting the Hollow Tree segment from spawning.

Since that's why I assume the mod is attempting to use the hollow log area in the first place.

 

Thank you for your assistance, I hope we can resolve this issue, it's an excellent addition to my server!

 

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 17th 2023 at 4:38 PM

@Guayo
Thanks for the report - although I couldn't recreate the issue, I did go ahead and roll back any recent changes to tree hollows which will hopefully fix this once and for all.  I did have a couple of other recent similar reports of late, although those were apparently not game breaking. 

New release up.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 17th 2023 at 4:32 PM

@Zephyran
Sorry but I can't recreate that issue.  Mod conflict maybe (have you added any mods recently, in particular mods that "touch" every block in the game)?

I tested using the latest stable version of Vintage Story - v1.18.6 (not the ,NET7 experimental version), PrimitiveSurvival 3.2.4, and Wildcraft Trees 1.2.3.

💬 Guayo, Jul 17th 2023 at 1:00 PM

then yeah i have no idea. it was strange for that world to break only when i made it to that hollow then. sorry i couldnt be of more help. but if i have the same issue again ill try to get better information for you.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 14th 2023 at 10:13 PM

hmmm.  Probably not carry on.  I love that mod and ALWAYS have it enabled in my list of mods, whether I'm testing or playing.

💬 Ultimaheart4, Jul 14th 2023 at 10:05 PM

SpearAndFang

yeah sorry i havnt had any issues either as of my latest testing. the only mod i could think of would maybe be the new carry on? i think i had that in one of my itterations of testing my broken world, but then took it out and it still had the issue. i dont plan on using carry on in my current list so hopefully i can avoid it if that was the issue. thank you for testing and trying to figure out why my old world broke and hopefully prevent a new issue from appearing in my new world.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 14th 2023 at 10:00 PM

Ultimaheart4 
No it's much more likely to be a mod conflict, or even a vanilla bug.  A hollow is essentially a hollow - if there's no log below it it's simply switched to the ground variant. And direction is random, so it's not uncommon for the opening to be facing a dirt block. 

FWIW, I turned hollow spawn rates way way up and have done quite a bit of testing (with the latest stable VS version and mod version), and haven't had anything unusual happen.yet.

💬 Ultimaheart4, Jul 14th 2023 at 9:35 PM

SpearAndFang@ would the ground hollow be the issue? i just loaded a world and found a hollow log with other mods installed and no issue with world loading. but i do recall now that the hollow logs i found that broke the world were ground varients? or looked like they were sitting on the ground with the fat part/opening in the dirt block. idk if that was the actual part crashing/not loading correctly. it was also a birch log iirc. so after running around a new world and finding both bottom of tree hollow logs and normal hollow logs on multiple tree's i havnt had a "crash" like last time. im not sure anymore how or why it crashed before. but i do know that the log didnt look right on the bottom part of the tree like most of the ones ive currently found do. if i do have any more issues with the mod ill let you know. 

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 14th 2023 at 8:24 PM

That gives me some idea of what to look for. I'll do some testing.  And no, I don't know that there would be any old crash-info. I wasn't sure if you experienced an outright crash which is why I was more interested in seeing your "main" logs. The main logs alone often tell us a lot about what's going on anyways.

💬 Ultimaheart4, Jul 14th 2023 at 6:59 PM

so VS is stable 1.18.6, i thought it was the firepit mod that was accidentally on net.7 but i fixed it and loaded a new world and got the same issue initially. unfortunatly i would have to recreate said crash/world issue because i cant find any old files of the crash it was trying to throw or any old info in my files. is there a way to pull up old crash info? it was on singleplayer, mod version should be primitive survival 3.2.4. like i cant find it in my client-crash.txt either seeing as it didnt fully crash. sigh sorry i cant be of more help as of right now. i will try to replicate this later. i just am not sure i want to travel around that much to find a tree hollow to recreate the issue again after needing to restart a world so many times already. but will try to replicate the issue at a later time. should i see said issues in the client-main.txt and server-main.txt? or crash log area? ive only downloaded that one version of primitive survival ever. so im not sure if that couldve been the issue.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 14th 2023 at 5:26 PM

Ultimaheart4
That's not a lot to go on.  Maybe you can post some details here?
https://www.vintagestory.at/forums/topic/2399-primitive-survival/
Namely: VS Version number (+ Stable or .NET7), Mod Version, Single or Multiplayer, Operating System (windows or other), along with some log files (client-main.txt, server-main.txt)

I will say that one common problem is having mutliple versions of a mod in one of the two mods folders.  It's not enough to simply disable them in the mod manager, you need to delete them completely from the mods folder.

💬 Ultimaheart4, Jul 14th 2023 at 3:24 PM

so a few days ago i seem to have ran into a bug with tree hollows, every time on a new world that i ran into a tree hollow it made the game break, i would be unable to collect any resources from breaking grass, leaves, tree's, dirt, etc. i also couldnt sleep to skip the night, i could however run around and watch time pass, animals roam around, etc. sometimes i couldnt even load the new world after i left the world at all. sometimes it would load up at the exact moment i left and still would be unable to do anything. it only happened after finding a tree hollow. not sure if there could be issues with other mods items trying to appear in the hollow so i turned off all other mods but it didnt fix any issues with tree hollows in new worlds. i saw an update for knife/tree hollow issue in a changelog but i used a version after that date so not sure if it could still be an issue.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 12th 2023 at 2:20 PM

@MrGr33n
I believe that if you enable Furrowed in my mod that it will simply override a single farming related xSkill (the one that allows you to hoe multiple blocks of farmland at once, like a 3x3 area).  So no real issues - you just have to decide which thing is more important to you.

Unfortunately I wasn't unable to make the two things work together. Hence the modconfig option. Xandu (the xSkills modder) also couldn't come up with a solution. 

💬 MrGr33n, Jul 12th 2023 at 1:50 PM

SpearAndFang Actually i do run XSkill but i didn't turn off the configuration in the Primitive survival configuration. Thank you for the anwser, It might just be a mod conflict then and i always have the same mods together.

Have a good day!

Edit: what happen if i leave XSkills and (I saw that Furrowed was disable in my configuration) and i want to activate the option? Will it break everything? Or just prevent some of XSkills stuff to work?

💬 Adam827, Jul 12th 2023 at 7:59 AM

@SpearAndFang Using the command: /entity remove e[range=3]  worked when standing next to it. Thanks for the timely and helpful response!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 12th 2023 at 7:18 AM

@Adam827 sorry but you've made a friend for life.

Actually the server command /entity wipeall would remove the sea creature, but it will also remove all other entities in loaded chunks.  So be careful with that! 

https://wiki.vintagestory.at/index.php/List_of_server_commands

Beyond that, I'm not sure what your options are as they have no hit box and are unkillable. They're currently cosmetic only.  Restore a backup?  Dig a hole below it in creative mode and let it fall down, then cover over the hole?

And thanks!

💬 Adam827, Jul 12th 2023 at 6:56 AM

Great mod! Just one question though:  I was going through all the things added in the creative inventory and placed a bioluminescent sea creature, which are neat, but I don't see a way for me to remove it once placed. Is there something I'm missing, or is it just stuck wherever they're placed?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 12th 2023 at 4:38 AM

@MrGr33n Not sure. I just tested it and it is working for me.  Latest version of Primitive Survival, latest STABLE release of Vintage Story. Windows OS. Also using a vanilla flint hoe.  Hoe once to make farmland, then sneak hoe the same block to turn that farmland into furrowed land.

You might try deleting the configuration file "primitivesurvival118.json" (see Custom Mod Configuration above) and restarting the game to recreate it. There is a setting in there "FurrowedLandEnabled" which can be set to false to disable it - so that the xSkills mod can work properly.  

Beyond that, maybe it's a mod conflict of some sort, or maybe you're running the experimental .NET7 build of Vintage Story? I have not tested the mod with that build at all, although I suspect that it mostly works.

💬 MrGr33n, Jul 12th 2023 at 1:39 AM

Alright now i will ask, Why FURROWED LAND doesn't seem to work for me. I saw people show picture of it and i really can't get it to happen. I sneak and use a flint hoe but the only thing i see is my character shadow do the hoeing animation but nothing happen at all.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 11th 2023 at 5:50 AM

@DandyDan
Agreed.  But balance is a tricky thing to discuss, and I'm not even sure if it exists.  Experienced players often say that gathering food in vanilla is far too easy.  Inexperienced players often say it's far too difficult.  And I'm fairly convinced that with all of the vanilla settings that can be changed and all the mods that are available, that no two people are even playing the same game.

Which is why there are so many mod config options - I've tried and given up trying to "balance" fishing. For example, there's nothing stopping players from relatively easily setting up, say, 100 weir traps in four neighboring chunks, and catching lots of fish.  The default settings are on the easy side so that players can see that the gizmos actually work.  How they want to remedy that is up to them - change the mod config, adjust the vanilla sat rate, change other settings to make the game harder.  idk.

💬 DandyDan, Jul 11th 2023 at 3:10 AM

I reduced the config setting for fish catch rate. I had 3 weir traps and 4 limb lines and was able to make fish stew every day. I think it needs a little rebalance. I cut it to 20% of default setting which means i might get 1 or 2 fish per day for those 7 traps. I also doubled the impact on the fish stock levels from 5 to 10.

I think the default setting generates 1 fish per day per chunk if you arent throwing eggs in.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 9th 2023 at 5:03 AM

Aljistar spawn conditions for crabs are quite restrictive. In single player it is not uncommon for me to go 200 irl hours without even seeing one.  I would definitely check with your server admin first to see if they've adjust spawn rates or are using a mod that adjusts spawn rates. 

Other possibilities (1) there are a lot of players on your server - spawn rates of all entities are increased by the game itself based on the number of players (2) you just happen to live right where the spawn conditions are ideal for land crabs.

💬 Aljistar, Jul 9th 2023 at 3:10 AM

love the mod. dont know if my server admin made it so but Land crabs spawn like locusts, raiding homes and murdering my chickens.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jul 1st 2023 at 3:42 AM

@Moon_Dew
My original thinking was that less dense (and therefore lighter) stones wouldn't make a good deadfall (not unlike tools). And it was a little less clutter for the handbook. But I honestly didn't do much research or put a lot of thought into it.  I can add more stone types, and have put it on the to-do list.

💬 Moon_Dew, Jul 1st 2023 at 1:42 AM

Is there any reason why you can only make deadfalls out of granite, andesite, basalt, obsidian, or peridotite?  This is really a pain when the only stone for miles is something like shale or claystone.

💬 Moon_Dew, Jun 28th 2023 at 11:27 PM

Ah, that's where I went wrong.  I already had the furrow all carved out before I connected it to a source block.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jun 28th 2023 at 11:11 PM

Moon_Dew
When you furrow land, you need to start right next to a water source block and then work your way inland in order for the furrow to automagically fill wilth water.  Otherwise, it behaves just like a normal hole/water block (you'll need to use a bucket to fill the furrows).

💬 Moon_Dew, Jun 28th 2023 at 9:30 PM

I have my furrowed land connected to a water source, but it seems like the water only wants to go two or three blocks before stoping.  Is that normal if the water source is on the same level as the furrow?

And yes, I did check to see if there was any blockage.  Ironically the only blockage was in a furrow that didn't have water in it.

The latest version seems to fix it, though it is still possible to take continuous fall damage while standing on the handrails of a monkey bridge that is exactly 4 blocks high — but players probably shouldn't stand on those. Well done!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jun 24th 2023 at 5:27 PM

@Tomaso @Rangelost @gumwyrm

Really appreciate the assist with the whole monkey bridge weirdness.  I believe I've got it sorted out.  New release up.

💬 Rangelost, Jun 24th 2023 at 3:05 AM

gumwyrm
Fascinating. I was easily able to reproduce your fall-through issue by building a monkey bridge that goes up to 4 blocks high. I do indeed take fall damage while standing at a 4-block height, or by walking onto the bridge, wherein the server-side version of my character will continue to walk and then fall from such a height within a server-side physics tick (~1 second).

As I theorized, this is fixed by making fall damage client-authoritative. The problem is on the server's side. I do not know how this can be fixed in the game's current state, but I wish you good luck!

💬 gumwyrm, Jun 24th 2023 at 2:32 AM

Rangelost

The damage happens even when the bridge is only 1 block above the ground, so fall damage is very unlikely. Unless the monkey bridge is forcing acceleration onto the player, physics is not to blame.
I would assume the event of taking damage itself is what's shoving the player through, though that's a bit of a stretch... Regardless, something is causing the player to take damage from an unknown source ... gravity. I just checked the logs.

23.6.2023 21:16:45 [Chat] Lost 0.7 hp through gravity @ -5
23.6.2023 21:18:04 [Chat] Lost 0.57 hp through gravity @ -5
23.6.2023 21:26:13 [Chat] Lost 1.7 hp through gravity @ -5

but that last one was literally right at the beginning, just as it drops to a 1-block height. I don't take damage from a fall, just from walking on the bridge.

 

Seems like a doozy of a problem, but hopefully this helps somewhat, SpearAndFang
looking forward to this being patched out <3

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jun 23rd 2023 at 5:09 PM

@gumwyrm @rangelost thanks for the additional information.  I'll try my best to recreate and then prevent this from happening for the next release.

💬 Rangelost, Jun 23rd 2023 at 6:48 AM

gumwyrm
Is your monkey bridge about 4 to 5 blocks high above ground? If so, the reason why you take damage and then fall through may be due to the server updating your position following undue fall damage. In creative mode, you cannot take fall damage (or any damage at all), and so your position is not updated.

Currently, the game's server-side physics are less than ideal, and result in players taking fall damage under a large array of circumstances when they should not. It is possible that within one physics tick, the server-side version of the player sometimes has enough time to fall through the monkey bridge for some reason, and hit the ground below, triggering this effect.

If you and your friend are the only ones playing on the server, you may try to install Fall Damage Options on the server, and enable the client_authoritative option (You will need to run the server once to generate the config file, then shut the server down to edit the file, then run the server again). If this fixes the issue, then this mod may not be at fault.

💬 gumwyrm, Jun 23rd 2023 at 6:28 AM

SpearAndFang

the only shared mods myself and Tomaso have are this mod and xskills, but something of note they left out is that just prior to falling through the monkey bridge, the player is hurt very slightly...

and that you only fall through on the bottom section, not the handrailing. I've taken to running down the handrail instead of the actual bridge portion of it for this exact reason -- I won't fall through.

as well, it seems that whether i fall through or not is entirely up to chance -- it's entirely inconsistent... but that's only on a short bridge

to top it all off, i could be standing completely still and fall through after a short while. further, this bug doesn't happen in creative mode at all (at any speed, from 1 to sprinting at 10), only survival (from standing still to sprinting at any movespeed)... so it's something about taking damage that throws everything off.

really hoping this gets fixed, because i really like the aesthetics of a short rope bridge vs actual blocks... and it saves me some time spent chiseling :)

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jun 23rd 2023 at 2:22 AM

@Tomaso sorry I cannot recreate that issue. The monkey bridge itself consists of pretty standard blocks, but with rather odd collision boxes (which are easy to see in game when looking at the bridge).  I can't imagine the collision boxes ever going missing, although it is worth noting that they are intentionally different at the bridge's endpoints (to make it easier to get on and off of the bridge).  My best guess is that the issue is related to the xSkills mod, which can altar both movement speeds and step height.  Perhaps having too high of a movement speed is allowing you to pass right through the bridge's collision boxes.

Hi there!

I keep falling through the monkey-bridge-thing.
Not instantly! I can walk maybe half a bridge and then I fall down.

At first it thought it was a lag, but it happens very often, even in single player.

Any ideas what makes this happen?

 

thx and keep panning

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jun 17th 2023 at 3:27 AM

Hello Drevarius
I'm not familiar with all of those other mods, but if I had to guess it would be entities that are the cause of the lag.  This mod adds quite a few, and along with the Vanilla creatures, and mods like Medieval Expansion,  Feverstone Wilds, and perhaps others, you are probably experiencing creature overload.  On top of that, the game itself spawns more of all creature types based on the number of people playing.

I talk a bit about decreasing spawn rates at the bottom of the "custom mod configuration" section above (but it's a bit of a pain to customize), and I believe that there's a mod on the modDB that allows you to more easily adjust creature spawn rates.

Beyond that, I would maybe guess that your server could use more resources?  Or too much latency for some of your players?  I only say that because this mod is running on 255 servers at this moment and I rarely hear about issues such as yours.

💬 Drevarius, Jun 16th 2023 at 7:29 PM

Hi SpearAndFang !

I run a fairly heavily modded server for my friends and coworkers (with a hosting service) and I've recently added your mod to the server - this is my first experience with it.

Really enjoying the content, but I'm seeing a bit of an odd issue with it:

I am getting very high server strain whenever someone is moving through the world and causing areas to load - not generating new terrain, just loading previous existing spaces. The faster they move, the worse it is. It doesn't matter if the terrain is civilized or wilderness. It is especially obvious doing things like riding on server authoritative mounts. It causes significant hangs and will pop the "server not responding" alert message after a point until it can catch up.

If I disable just Primal Survival, this issue goes away. I am aware that the mod is complex, but it is a bit odd for it to drop server perf so much on it's own, and primarily during travel, even with just one player connected - the server typically handles 5+ simultaneous players connecting from disparate regions like NA, EU, an NZ simultaneously without any noticeable perf issues - and with a large mod list that includes expanded mechanics, new NPCs, companions, etc.

Since I am just installing this for the first time, I am unaware if this behavior is consistent with past behaviors and expected, or is a recent symptom you should be made aware of. Perhaps some server call or functionality related to loading in new areas is being made or ticking an excessive amount of times? Perhaps you know of or could suggest a part that could be modified or disabled to improve the performance while maintaining the majority of the mods functionality?

I've had to disable the mod for now, but would love to get it back up and running if the issue can be resolved.

Here is my current mod list on the server if you are interested in that info:

ACulinaryArtillery 1.0.12_RC

Cinobi I think you are talking about "the living dead". They only spawn VERY deep underground (unless you are making them spawn using an altar relic, which is quite difficult to do).

I doubt that your chiseled house is anywhere close to the mantle.  I have heard that at least one server has changed my mod so that they spawn on the surface, but that's not my doing.

EDIT: I see that the Conquest of Blocks server has a thing called a "Bone Collector".  That *might* be a customized version of my living dead.  You will need to talk to them.

It would be very cool if your mod was the center of a whole direction in VS modding, which would be aimed at developing the fauna of the world and developing interaction with it, as Wildcraft is starting to do with flora.
You can recruit the recently released fishing expansion to your side, as well as the Stone Age fauna developer.

I kinda need a changelog, but I believe nothing will break my server when it's you on the wheel of the updated mod >XD

💬 Whiteindia, May 8th 2023 at 3:59 AM

SpearAndFang Thank you for the quick response, I will look into those other mods.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, May 7th 2023 at 7:38 PM

Whiteindia Thanks!
This mod does not change resin collecting in any way, other than it showing up VERY rarely in a tree hollow.  I use it in a recipe or two. Not sure why it would come up in a search otherwise.  No treetap for this mod, no.  There's a couple of mods that aleady do that.  Or you could try Wild Farming - Revival which lets you score pine trees with a knife...

💬 Whiteindia, May 7th 2023 at 6:13 PM

Love the mod, I'm a little confused. I searched for resin trying to find something to help with collecting resin and this mod came up in the search. I've had this mod on my server for a while, but I haven't noticed anything for that in particular. Am I missing something? I had the culinary and expanded foods mods by l33tmaan before the update which included a tree tap, but they haven't updated. If you don't have something like that, would you consider adding a tree tap?

💬 Burgersim, May 1st 2023 at 7:59 AM

Thx for the info ^^

Yeah sure, I don't "expect" anyone to do mod integration, but I thought I'd mention it just in case ^^

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 30th 2023 at 6:35 PM

Burgersim Oh yeah, the underwater trotline cheese. I forgot about that and am not sure if I will ever fix it.  I would rather call it a feature than a bug.

As I mentioned a couple of times below, I'm done with mod integration for a while.  It's a good idea though.

💬 Burgersim, Apr 30th 2023 at 6:03 PM

SpearAndFang ok, I guess I did something wrong then. I placed it at the edge of the water and it was basically inside the top water block of the lake (like occupying the block above the water and the top water block a bit) all the way to the other side and it kept the top water blocks from freezing the whole way through to the other side.


Another question or suggestion btw: We are using the Hide & Fabrics mod, which adds Hides for the different animals, and since your mod is adding pelts that you can lay out for decoration, you could basically use the different animal hides to put down the decorations, id Hide & Fabric is present. Not a biggie, but I thought I'd mention it.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 30th 2023 at 4:44 PM

Burgersim the water below a trotline should absolutely freeze over. The trotline itself is above the water block and should not affect it in any way.  BUT saltwater does not freeze over in vanilla, so....year round fishing!

💬 Peridot, Apr 30th 2023 at 3:17 PM

Holy moly I thought I was going crazy with only my trot line working! Thanks for the fix! 

💬 Burgersim, Apr 30th 2023 at 3:04 PM

SpearAndFang hey there, a quick question, but should something like the trot line freeze over during a cold winter? because on our server with the newest version it doesn't at all and so we're relatively easily able to still get fish and I was wondering if that was intentional

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 30th 2023 at 5:46 AM

Maldrak ThreeHeadedDingo My apologies, I did indeed break those two traps.  New release up. Thanks so much for reporting this!

I had tested fishing after adding saltwater support, then afterwards remembered I needed to address world generated boiling water.  And didn't test again after dealing with boiling water.  Small typo. Huge facepalm.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 30th 2023 at 4:59 AM

ThreeHeadedDingo WELL NOW.  Maybe I broke it when I added saltwater support.  I will investigate! Thanks

💬 ThreeHeadedDingo, Apr 30th 2023 at 4:45 AM

Same report as Maldrak. Weir trap catches nothing, fish baskets catch nothing. Trot lines still work. Playing on dedicated MP.

Several weeks into a game and a weir trap has never caught anything, whereas trot lines in the same pond have caught plenty, so chunk in our case is definitely not fished out and has not been all this time.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 30th 2023 at 3:44 AM

Nope, 1 block deep is all you need (unless it's winter - lake ice can cause all kinds of problems).  Maybe that chunk is fished out?  I use weir traps often and catch plenty of fish.  I'm assuming your weir is set up properly, but there's a video in the fishing section above.

💬 Maldrak, Apr 30th 2023 at 3:20 AM

SpearAndFang It's clear in all the right spaces.  Do I need to go into deeper pond or in the ocean only?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 30th 2023 at 2:27 AM

Maldrak Fish basket needs 4 full empty water blocks around it (nsew). The weir trap also needs an open water block just outside of it (at the entrance).  Maybe that's the problem?

💬 Maldrak, Apr 30th 2023 at 1:37 AM

I'm 13 days in on a local game with 2 people, the other person is the host.  I have yet to get anything in the fish trap and the wier. The fish trap is baited.  Anything I can do to get it working?  Catching good on a trot line in the same pond.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 25th 2023 at 7:20 PM

@Lithos fishing should be working entirely with the version I released last night.  Although I only did minimal testing.


v3.1.8

FIXED: Fishing - weir traps, fish baskets, trotlines, and limb lines now work in saltwater - but salmon and bass are the only saltwater fish you can catch. Also can no longer fish in boiling water

 

💬 Chumber, Apr 25th 2023 at 7:06 PM

Just put this on my server last night, loving it so far.

 

I know you already know seawater stuff isn't working, but not sure if that applies to the fishing mechanics. After several minutes wondering if I was missing something between the video and the guide notes, I've found that weirs cannot be set in saltwater. As soon as I tried on a nearby pond it worked fine. Limb and trotlines seem to work on oceanfronts, but I'm not certain if they'll catch anything.

💬 AzuliBluespots, Apr 25th 2023 at 1:04 PM

I'm not only patient, I'm happy to have given you a good suggestion :) Hopefully I'll be playing soon on 1.18 too!

Yanazake - I'm not completely opposed to the idea, but as I said earlier I'm about done with mod integration for a while (other than maybe a few more loose ends with Wildcraft Trees) - I want to focus on tidying up some outstanding issues and work in progress with Primitive Survival itself. 

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 25th 2023 at 6:06 AM

A suggestion, could you add the new gears to the loot drop from Cave Content compacted machinery blocks via some sort of patch? It's late-game stuff (needs tool tier 4), and I think it could help improve how to get the gears since it's only one option right now.

Edit: Seems like I came to talke about it too late. Well, hopefully in the future.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 23rd 2023 at 4:27 PM

gndrneutralnoun - thanks, I'll check it out
Burgersim - yeah that sounds like a sync issue

💬 gndrneutralnoun, Apr 23rd 2023 at 2:39 PM

On 3.1.6 (VS 1.18.1), I can't view the Fish eggs (Curing) entry in the handbook from the Raw version's page, and it doesn't show up when searching for it. Caviar appears, but it doesn't seem to be crafted from anything. Could be a mod conflict, but I thought I'd let you know just in case.

💬 Burgersim, Apr 23rd 2023 at 12:05 PM

SpearAndFang Thanks, that's great, and I get that mod compatibility might not be a focus btw. I might have found a bug now, which is that I set up a trotline bt no items were used, or rather I could just pick up the whole stack of items that should've been gone afterwards. I think the Server also sent out an error message, if that helps, but I'm not sure that was really related, since I don't know too much about modding ^^*

 

Edit: doing it all again did seem to fix it, maybe just a sync-isue with th server, not the mod

Burgersim I did tackle Wildcraft trees support for better stairs, the raft, and wooden lanterns for the next release.  Also added wildcraft support for making cordage with some of its plants.  I'm about done with mod integration for a while - I want to focus on tidying up some outstanding issues and work in progress with Primitive Survival itself. 

💬 Burgersim, Apr 23rd 2023 at 4:41 AM

SpearAndFang Thanks, I think all in all it does work pretty well together aside from a few things. What would full compatibility change aside from stairs and the raft recipe? Btw what would also be great is if the fish and other meat(s) would work for taming dogs and cats (and foxes) for the petai-based mods, but I guess that wuld be something they would need to patch.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 21st 2023 at 2:21 PM

Burgersim apologies I thought I had tidied up the lack of compatibility between the two mods, at least in terms of ensuring that the log files were clean when the two mods were used together.  I can't imagine that anything breaks because of this, but it doesn't look good in the log files.  In any case, I will fix this for the next release - still undecided in terms of full on compatibility.

💬 Burgersim, Apr 21st 2023 at 5:59 AM

Is there support planned for Wildcraft Trees woods and stuff e.g. for Better Sairs? I get a lot of recipe errors and when loading the mod, and I don't seem to be able to craft the better stairs variants of them, but the vanilla ones work fine. Also a Raft can't be crafted from the woods either for example.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 20th 2023 at 2:07 PM

Bigjo66 I am not sure what is happening.  Maybe a version mismatch.  Are you using the latest version of the game and the mod?  If you are using a 1.17 release of the game you will need to remove the mod from your mods folder, download an older version of the mod from the "files" tab (like version 3.1.2), and then place that download in your mods folder.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Mar 14th 2023 at 2:40 PM

lord_luba the first line of your crash logs seems to be saying that a field is missing from your configuration.  Please check:

..\VintagestoryData\clientsettings.json

There should be a line like this:
"maxAnimatedElements": 36,

If you have manually edited this file, perhaps copy and paste the contents here to ensure it is valid json
https://codebeautify.org/json5-validator.

Other than that, it might be some sort of mod conflict or game customization, I don't know.

May I please ask, why I might be getting this crash? I started a new game (it's like 3 hours of game play) and suddenly this crash appeared, multiple times already and I wasn't able to figure out why it's happening.
I'm most likely to blame for adding too many things, but if you have any idea, what might be the culprit...

hmmm... well i reinstalled the mod, and even downloaded the latest version and still no smoker... and also now the game doesnt know what the jerky item or tree hollows are

💬 Veigh, Mar 2nd 2023 at 3:23 AM

hmmm... that is odd. ill see if the crafting recipe works

💬 Diabolikal, Mar 2nd 2023 at 1:09 AM

Definitely is in the handbook, perhaps the mod did not install correctly? https://i.imgur.com/OoinmHq.jpg Veigh

💬 Veigh, Mar 2nd 2023 at 12:35 AM

where do i find the crafting recipe for the smoker? it is not in the guide and there is nothing that comes up if i search "smoker" in the book. or how do i smoke meat instead of making jerky. there are no instructions for smoking meat as far as i can see 

💬 MrOrange, Mar 1st 2023 at 3:30 PM

I started a new world with just the primative survival mod and looked for the Guide - primative survival: quick starte guide isn't in the list.  I'm using mod version 3.1.2.
Well I started a new world again and now it's there ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

💬 AlphaPyxis, Feb 28th 2023 at 9:31 AM

@SpearAndFang Awesome, Thanks for updating that. Love your work. I have only messed with the brige and the fish trap but these are excellent additions to the game. Well done!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 27th 2023 at 3:38 PM

AlphaPyxis oof. yes, sorry I always forget about that and have updated the documentation.  I had arbitrarily made the maximum length of a bridge 60 blocks.

💬 AlphaPyxis, Feb 27th 2023 at 3:11 PM

@SpearAndFang Nevermind, Had to build a post in between seems there is a length limitation i wasnt aware of :) Image 1

💬 AlphaPyxis, Feb 27th 2023 at 2:21 PM

@SpearAndFang Thank you for the reply, Unfortunately that is still happening no matter which way i approach placing these monkey bridges. Ill try again sometime during the week but i give up for now. Thanks again.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 27th 2023 at 5:09 AM

new release for 1.18.  For the bravest of the brave, and the boldest of the bold.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 26th 2023 at 5:59 PM

AlphaPyxis apologies. those messages in game are not exactly helpful. It looks like it can't find a second endpoint to attach to.

If you've ever set up a trotline, it's basically the same, except your endpoints need to be two blocks high.  See
https://youtu.be/Gmq1iN99Ri0

I'm successfully placing a monkey bridge right here.  Note the (minimum) two block high endpoint on the far side of the lake.  Also, you click on the bottom of the two blocks to place it
https://youtu.be/9uSBfcw8Aa4?t=67

💬 AlphaPyxis, Feb 26th 2023 at 2:00 PM

Hey everytime I try to place a monkey bridge i get this message Image 2 . Dont know what it means as i have loads of pieces in my inventory (more than enough for the block distance), Anyone have any ideas? Also when i try in other areas this is what it says

Image 1

I am incapable of placing a bridge it seems. Thank you in advance.

great mod for vintage civ!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 12th 2023 at 6:08 AM

appriciate the kind words, and yes I like the release idea better and will implement that instead.  Some people probably like the crazy strobe effect...idk.

💬 Smile, Feb 11th 2023 at 8:19 PM

Love the mod and everyone on our community server enjoys the addition. Keep up the great work!
we're excited to figure out the secrets, one day haha

Edit: Another thing with fireflies, if you could allow us to release the caught ones back to unbaited if they are not the ones we wanted that would be awesome as
This could potentially mitigate the issue with catching lots of the strobing ones if we have a disposition to not liking the strobe effect rather than making the strobe much slower :)

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 11th 2023 at 4:00 PM

Smile that all sounds reasonable to me.  I've added it to the to-do list for the next release.  Thanks!

💬 Smile, Feb 10th 2023 at 9:51 PM

Firefly Jars of the same type should stack to at least half of the empty jar amounts. The current stack is 1, even lanterns in the base game stack.

I also feel that the fireflies pulse their lights too quickly still. From a usability perspective, it could be slowed down a ton to create a less distracting effect.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 7th 2023 at 12:37 AM

Aedis Oops, yes. I've done it.

💬 Aedis, Feb 6th 2023 at 5:49 PM

Hello, any chance for update of github repo as well?  (I am building locally because I build against net461 which works for me)

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 22nd 2023 at 3:51 PM

MadKingRiley May I ask why you're running such an old version of the game (v1.17.3)?  A lot of vanilla bugs were fixed between then and now, including at least one related to liquid containers.

Anyways...long story short, while the latest release of this mod is tagged as working with older versions of the game and *should* mostly work, the truth is that I haven't tested the mod with older versions and have little interest in doing so.  Sorry.

Appreciate all the feedback related to lava. I'm not ready to do anything any time soon but it's certainly given me some new things to consider!

💬 l33tmaan, Jan 19th 2023 at 8:43 PM

Oh no!! Lava is my end-game light and heat source for my home, don't make it too painful to use! I love to have lava waterfalls behind glass, it's peak aesthetic.

💬 BeetleSong, Jan 19th 2023 at 8:02 AM

Just some thoughts on the lava matter. If you wanted to do something more realistic. You could have it solify into lava rock which can be used for irrigating farms (its great drainage in plant pots) maybe putting it down could increase the range water source blocks provide benefit to. 

Its a great fireproofing material for fire pits and gardens. So maybe surrounding pit kilns in lava rock path blocks will prevent fire spread

Lava rock is also insanely sharp, similar to Obsidian (which is also technically a lava rock). It has potential as a weapon (although a not very durable weapon).

Also seeing as Real Life Primitive Survival relies on having clean sources of water, lava rocks could be used as a more long term solution to filtering water. Maybe doesn't do as well as Charcoal or other more temporary solutions, but the lava rocks could last a longer period of time or be used in more permanent solutions 

Obviously I'm not sure what type of features you will be implementing in the future or what is even possible in the game. But its 3am and its a perfect time to shamelessly throw ideas to the wind.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 19th 2023 at 7:43 AM

@Briccars yeah I'd really like to do something with lava but I just don't know what.  It was mostly just an experiment to see what players could do with lava if they could move it, and produced some interesting results. I tend to lean towards realism these days, and lava just isn't useful for much.  I'm more tempted to have it cool and harden in the bucket unless it's poured in a clay mold of some sort or poured on the ground to harden.  idk.  I'm drawing a blank on the lava front.

💬 Briccars, Jan 15th 2023 at 8:25 PM

Would love it if you could craft something with the lava bucket. I was thinking of an lava heated forge that provides infinite but slower heat. And it would cost the lava and the bucket.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 3rd 2023 at 12:45 AM

Lexingtondavid correct, the spawn rates are pretty low so as to not be overwhelming in larger multi-player games.  Plus they're hard to see and behave a lot like foxes (flee first), so unless you step on one while running you're most likely to only see one chasing a hare.

💬 Lexingtondavid, Jan 2nd 2023 at 9:46 PM

I've rarely if ever found snakes naturally in the wild, all of mine have ever been spawned in from picking up rocks off the ground.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 2nd 2023 at 5:50 PM

SalazarWindriver Nope, not snakes as near as I can tell. I put a bunch of chickens and snakes together for an extended period and ended up with a couple of dead roosters, but I'm 99% sure that's because the roosters were fighting each other.  All of the chickens and chicks remained untouched.  That would be consistent with the snake ai - they will seek and attack hares and players only.  I also checked crabs and they will only seek and attack players.

I'm betting that this is something from another mod, or a vanilla creature that then left or despawned before you arrived.

💬 SalazarWindriver, Jan 2nd 2023 at 4:04 PM

What are the conditions for snakes to spawn? just checked on my chickens and found a bunch dead and no foxes in there so I think it was snakes.

AzazelSurris go into the Mod Manager and Open Mods Folder.  Ensure that there is only one copy of the Primitive Survival mod in there (PrimitiveSurvival3.1.1.zip).  Delete any other ones.  Then click the Reload Mods button.  There should only be one listed in Installed mods. If there is more than one (whether it's enabled or not) the mod will not work.

@SpearAndFang Ops! totally my fault, apparently if it has to do with the one you mention, thank you very much for the work with this mod!, the pool of water is very cool and the traps for the fish!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 20th 2022 at 3:29 PM

DarkNetNES That looks like the fruit tree crash that people were having with some of the earlier releases of the game itself 1.17, even without mods.

https://github.com/anegostudios/VintageStory-Issues/search?q=BlockEntityFruitTreePart&type=issues

Although this could be because of a mod, especially one that adds or modifies fruit trees.  It is very unlikely that Primitive Survival is causing this issue.  My best suggestion is to make sure the game is updated (1.17.9) and disable any fruit tree related mods.

💬 DarkNetNES, Dec 20th 2022 at 1:53 PM

Any idea? i,m check version, but it seems more like a problem of textures or blocks? forced to reset the world? 

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 16th 2022 at 1:51 AM

Just to follow up on xghilliex's issue for anyone reading this - it was a mod version mismatch, so not really a mod issue per se.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 15th 2022 at 7:00 AM

xghilliex I can only speculate without seeing some log files (server-main.txt especially, and maybe client-main.txt), but from past experience (1) make sure that only one copy of Primitive Survival is sitting in the mods folders - any older versions need to be removed completely from that folder, even if they are disabled in game...and (2) make sure it's in the same state on the client, and that the client is using the same version as the server.

Unlikely, but also, (3) if you've been mucking with modmaker.exe over the last couple of days, it was doing some strange things that were causing similar breakage.

If none of that helps and that's you asking a similar question over on the VS Discord, maybe post those log files over there (I'm SpearAndFang there too) since they're a little easier to read over there.

💬 xghilliex, Dec 15th 2022 at 3:30 AM

Hey! I am an Admin on a community that is running Primitive survival. The mod is loading correctly on our dedicated server and the guide is ingame however, the recipes and the links to them in the guide that's in the handbook are not working.  Do you know what could cause something like this to happen?  Thanks! 

💬 Krieden, Dec 13th 2022 at 7:15 PM

sorry I put this in the wrong comments section :(, but yeah I think that might have been where I was, I was just scrolling down the list of recipes so not 100% at wich point it actually crashed. I do recall seeing that just before though.

💬 Thranos, Dec 13th 2022 at 10:20 AM

Oh lord, is the part-bake crash bug back?

💬 l33tmaan, Dec 13th 2022 at 8:50 AM

Uhhh.

Krieden Did part-baked sausages crash you?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 13th 2022 at 5:00 AM

Krieden Sorry, but I'm just not seeing any coorelation between this mod and that crash. I think you've arrested the wrong suspect.

Sausages are an Expanded Foods thing, and if I had to guess I'd say it's a conflict between XSkills and Expanded Foods.  No evidence to go on really, just a hunch. Ima ping l33tmaan on the off chance that he has something to add.  Anyways, make sure those two mods are up-to-date, along with A Culinary Artillery and XLib.

💬 Krieden, Dec 13th 2022 at 3:27 AM

Had an odd crash and it looks like its coming from this mod, so just a heads up, here is the crash log. It happened when I opened the the handbook and was scrolling through recipes. I was scrolling though recipes for bushmeat and was looking at the sausages section.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 10th 2022 at 4:19 PM

PastaNipples appreciate the kind words!  While your idea is solid, I generally don't tackle random requests unless they give me an immediate OMG YES! vibe.  I prefer to be a part of the entire creative process from idea to execution.  Unleashing my creativity is the primary reason why I mod, so I'm going to have to let that one slide.

Not saying that my ideas are better, just that they're mine.

💬 PastaNipples, Dec 8th 2022 at 1:48 AM

Love this mod! Question/possible addition request (if such a place as the comments is appropriate to do so): an item/trap similar in function to the fish basket, baited with worms/berries/etc, with the intent of randomly producing bird feathers from 'wild birds' (unseen but like the fish in the water providing a resource)? Perhaps two tiers, one a simple nest made of dry grass, the next a proper birdhouse, each one having a chance to produce bird eggs in addition/more feathers than the other?

I ask because I highly enjoy this mods designs, and living so far in the North in my current run I haven't found a single bird...but while I can search for beehives, I can't find bird nests to break for feathers! Lacking an option to make flights out of bark/leaves, I figure maybe a trap-nest thingy to occasionally produce feathers is not so unreasonable.

Thank you, and all involved, for the mod!

💬 gndrneutralnoun, Dec 5th 2022 at 10:02 PM

Fair enough on the no-drops, it's your mod after all. Though it could be an option in the config that's disabled by default... Either way, again, it's your mod. And I'm glad to hear that the new update includes the soil color. :) Hopefully maybe in the future the furrows can be changed to their original height? Depends, I guess, I'm no expert.

💬 PeterSanderson, Dec 5th 2022 at 4:28 PM

Thanks kindly, SpearAndFang :)

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 5th 2022 at 2:34 AM

PeterSanderson Yup I've already got that on my list.  If you're anxious, you could change it here PrimitiveSurvival3.0.9.zip\assets\primitivesurvival\blocktypes\other\furrowedland.json
It's near the top "blockageChancePercent": 0.25,

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 5th 2022 at 2:14 AM

gndrneutralnoun I can get behind the idea of furrows matching farmland and will add that to my to-do list.  Terra preta furrows is some serious flex btw.  I originally had the model the same height as farmland but it caused some weirdness with water rendering and weird looking ice, so I intentionally raised those models to sort that out.  I'm not doing the farmland drops soil compatibility - while that's pretty legit for farmland I feel like there's not enough soil in a furrow to warrant that.

And thanks!

💬 PeterSanderson, Dec 5th 2022 at 12:56 AM

Any way to lower the chance of blockages or making it adjustable in the cfg file? I am finding them a bit overly frequent. If I have to spend too much time clearing blockages, I'll end up having to use the uglier but more efficient water source block, and I would rather avoid that. Keep up the excellent work, otherwise. Looking forward to the above ground irrigation system.

💬 gndrneutralnoun, Dec 4th 2022 at 7:06 PM

Love the new farmland irrigation system! I have a suggestion, though: I'd like it if the color of the furrowed farmland reflected the soil that was used to make it. I have an abundance of terra preta due to the mods I use and I'd like to make my furrows match my farmland, since I care a bit too much about aesthetics. At least, the block model being level with the height of the farmland would be awesome. Also, if you make it so that the furrowed farmland reflects the soil type, maybe add compatibility for them to drop the soil block if Farmland Drops Soil is installed? Either way, great work again!

I updated the pt-br translation, it's probably complete now with the particulator part (some bits left untranslated because it's links and stuff) and fixed at least one mistake I made on the smoker part. :) Posting on the forums!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 26th 2022 at 4:32 PM

Stejer When falling on spikes, the faster an entity is moving the more damage they take, so in theory the answer is yes.

But I'm not sure exactly how acceleration works when falling so I can't say whether or not entities have already reached the maximum fall speed at 3 blocks or not.  Aside: colliding with a wall while falling also seems to slow them down (and therefore decrease the damage).

It is by design that you take a small amount of damage when first walking onto a spike block.  But if the entire floor was spikes then once you are on the spikes you will no longer take damage. Therefore I personally tend to spread the spikes out a bit down there so that I can safely walk between them and so that entities will eventually walk around enough and die.

Something like that.

💬 Stejer, Nov 26th 2022 at 2:03 PM

question here! when you make a pit trap does the damage increase the deeper it is? like a pit trap 5 blocks deep will do more damage than a 3 blocks deep or is it a set number?

also is there a way to make so you can not take damage if you are not falling into the pit? (i almost died a few times trying to reach boars and sheep that died from the fall) maybe make so if you enter on a horizontal angle in the pit trap you are slower but dont take damage as if you were avoiding the spikes while trying to reach inside it?

 

those are just some ideas but the priority for me is the first question. thnx

@ SpearAndFang Thank you!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 25th 2022 at 3:15 PM

@RATDETECTIVE I'm dumb. There's a couple of ways you could prevent snakes (well anything) from spawning under sticks and rocks.  1.  You could modify the modconfig file (see custom mod configuration above) and set WormFoundPercentRock and WormFoundPercentStickFlint to 0.
2. Alternatively, you could delete this patch from the mod:  assets/primitivesurvival/patches/ps-rightclickpickupspawn.json

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 25th 2022 at 4:37 AM

RATDETECTIVE oh well that's a problem - it's hardcoded.  Although if you break rocks, sticks, and flint first and then pick them up (left click instead of right click) no snakes will appear...I see lots of people do this so it's not unusual, and you can still get earthworms using the grunting tool instead.   Related: I removed snakes from tree hollows in the latest release.

@Veigh It's just some boards and cobblestone. You can look it up in the in-game handbook, right?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 21st 2022 at 5:12 AM

RATDETECTIVE There's two different types of spawnconditions going on there - during worldgen and at runtime. So you might have to also zero out TriesPerChunk-Avg (a little higher in those files) to take care of the worldgen stuff.  Even then, some snakes may have already spawned in your world and may need to be removed manually with the /entity remove commands.

There wasn't any serious changes between those versions so I can't imagine what would be causing that other than maybe a problem with one of my language files.  Are you using a language other than English?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 15th 2022 at 6:41 PM

Yanazake you can't breed earthworms yet sorry.

Check under tools above for most of the deets regarding an earthworm grunter.  Basically you have the grunter in your offhand, a stick in your other hand, then sneak and click on the ground.  Forest floor is ideal but any soil will work, works better with no rain, and if you clear away the grass and whatnot you can see worms pop up from the ground easier.  Continue to sneak and look at the ground and you should hear the stick constantly rubbing against the grunting tool.  Worms will start to show up around you.  It's a lot like panning, you have to keep at it for a while.

Of course it can't be too warm or cold.

💬 AzuliBluespots, Nov 15th 2022 at 10:46 AM

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 22nd 2022 at 3:38 PM

Mylith I just wanted to come back and say thanks again!

Your information made the problem easily reproducable, and I was able to at least make the game crash without it pointing to THIS mod as the possible culprit (when it's obviously not).  The broken weaponpackbeta mod was perfect for troubleshooting.

Now I just have to release a new version before too many more people report that same error.  Hah!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 22nd 2022 at 2:28 PM

@Axebeard Are you sure about that?  A tree hollow can contain 1 to 8 items at one time (so potentially 8 seeds), and during recent testing with the latest version of VS I haven't experienced anything other than that.  It's a pretty standard storage container, so if you're getting unlimited items from it then that sounds more like a client/server sync issue.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 22nd 2022 at 2:12 PM

@Mylith thanks for that yeah.  That would be consistent with what both NESHK0 and Neurion reported.  Completely unrelated issues with other mods throwing that "PrimitiveSurvival.ModSystem.ItemLinkTool.OnUnloaded" error message.  Fun times.

💬 Mylith, Oct 22nd 2022 at 12:24 AM

So interesting thing, i had weaponpackbeta installed and it was causing the crash due to not be updated in some time (didnt check that the dev said they were rethinking the whole thing) but the only thing the crash log stated was this mod. It's only after trial and error did i figure out the issue.  So if you are crashing and getting the "PrimitiveSurvival.ModSystem.ItemLinkTool.OnUnloaded" theres a good chance its NOT Primitive Survival and actually totally something unrelated. Soon as i removed weaponpackbeta the issue went away.

💬 Axebeard, Oct 21st 2022 at 5:01 PM

Does this mod add the Pine tree hollow things? If so, the ones that give seeds are giving unlimited seeds now.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 21st 2022 at 4:37 AM

NESHK0, Update:  someone else just reported the exact same crash, but it was not related to Primitive Survival.  It seemed like the issue for them was that they had two different versions of a completely different mod in their mods folder.  Once they deleted one of those, the error went away.  I hope that helps.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 18th 2022 at 7:28 AM

NESHK0, I tried running that mod with Primitive Survival for a while and it seemed to work fine.  Even after exiting and restarting.  I also looked at the files in that mod and I don't really see anything that could cause a problem between the two mods.  That mod does have some things that could be cleaned up though, as seen in server-main.txt and client-main.txt after using it.

Note: I tested using the newest version of the game and the newest version of both mods.

💬 NESHK0, Oct 18th 2022 at 6:22 AM

SpearAndFang , не работает с этим модом mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/3359

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 18th 2022 at 2:55 AM

Hmmm.  My best guess in that case is either (1) more than one version of the mod installed at once (check both VintageStory/Mods and VintageStoryData/Mods, including sub folders), or (2) you are using an older version of .NET Framerwork.  For Windows 10 it should be a non-issue, .NET Framework 4.8 is a part of Windows Updates, for older versions of Windows (i.e. 7 or 8) you may need to install something newer manually (Net Framework 4.7.2 from Microsoft's website).  For Linux make sure Mono is updated.  Some linux builds (i.e. Arch) simply won't work.

Hopefully that helps.

@Prawn, I've definitely seen the disappering worm castings issue, but haven't been able to nail down a solution.  I believe it has something to do with how quickly one tries to break the block after it transitions, like the worms falling inside of it need some time to settle.  I sometimes recommend that people wait 5 seconds before breaking that block.  I may just try to sort that out once and for all one day.

First off, I'd like to say I really enjoy your mod! However, having said that, there is a problem I'd love fixed if you're willing. Some of your firefly varieties, for example the treetop or candle varieties, blink FAST, like lights on an ambulance. While fireflies can flash that fast, in-game they feel more like dance floor strobe lights than fire flies. I'm not epileptic, but if I was, hoo boy those fireflies might've done me in. So, in the interest of epileptics and people who want firefly lights that don't make them feel like they're at a rave, would you kindly add an option to slow down the speed at which the firefly light flashes?

If this isn't a normal occurence, it probably has something to do with other mods on the server I'm playing.

Edit: Thank you for fixing it Spear, I appreciate it!

💬 Tajin, Jun 28th 2022 at 2:54 PM

Ah, that did the trick.

I missed the part that I have to stand behind the pillar and have to click the lower block. Might be a good idea to include that in the block description. :D

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jun 28th 2022 at 2:38 PM

Tajin (1) Your endpoints need to be two blocks high (2) When you place the bridge you should be facing both of the endpoints (just like using cordage to make a trotline) (3) you need to click on the lower of the two blocks  (4) you need enough pieces of monkey bridge to span the distance between the endpoints. 

In the video there is a very quick example of me making a monkey bridge.

And thanks!

💬 Tajin, Jun 28th 2022 at 11:02 AM

I can't get the monkey bridge to work (tried 2 cobblestone pillars 4 blocks appart and also cleared all grass between them)
Could you provide some more information on how it's supposed to be used?

 

really nice mod aside from that :)

Hey so I don't want any spoilers but at the same time the living dead things, they don't not spawn and appear out of nowhere right?......

I have been looking at it in the hand book and saying to myself 

"I really hope it spawns somewhere really specific and not near my home"

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jun 19th 2022 at 5:33 AM

Hasn't been implemented.  You can though use fish fillets in soups and stews (in place of meat), cook them on a firepit or in the oven, or put them in a pie.   Expanded Foods adds other things you can do with them as well.

💬 Takata_Cheroki, Jun 18th 2022 at 10:57 PM

Question: How do you cure the fish fillets without turning them into jerky strips? Is that just not implemented yet, or is there a bug?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, May 26th 2022 at 4:13 AM

ManaWei Thank you, and thank you for reporting this issue.  I have just now fixed it for the next mod release.

💬 ManaWei, May 25th 2022 at 7:06 PM

Mod Incompatibility with More Piles.

Completely disables the ability to put down a pile of sticks, You might want to fix this as it's a very handy way of storing your sticks, bones and other stuff, definitely in line with Primitive Survival.. Think it's the new use of sticks for Grunting.. I really hope for a fix, I can't live without either mod <3  Amazing Work <3 

💬 ate0ate, May 23rd 2022 at 10:48 PM

SpearAndFang absolutely no problem. I know that things that look relatively simple from a player perspective can be anything but simple under the hood. Thanks for looking into things though!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, May 23rd 2022 at 6:16 PM

ate0ate gawsh thanks!  FWIW, I took a look at Hide and Fabric and what it would take to make that happen, and I'm sorry to say that I'm not willing to do that.  Mostly because it would be quite a bit of work with little return on that time investment.

 

💬 ate0ate, May 23rd 2022 at 8:19 AM

This mod is absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much for your work here SpearAndFang. I have one request, if possible or interested. Compatibility with the mod Hide and Fabric would be awesome. Certainly not a game breaker or anything, but both mods create unique hide drops for various animals and currently when using both mods only the Hide and Fabric ones drop. I'd love to be able to decorate using your mod's hides while also being able to craft the uniqe clothing added by Hide and Fabric. No big deal or anything if that is not feasible and I'm not sure if the suggestion fits better here or on Hide and Fabric's end. Just throwing the thought out there for those that know better than I.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, May 15th 2022 at 10:47 PM

WesCookie l'll give it further consideration.  And thank you!

SalazarWindriver If you place a normal shaped stair first, next to where you want your inside corner, the inside corner should recognize the situation so to speak...i.e. click on the ground whiile facing north, then click on the ground just east of that while facing north-east.

💬 SalazarWindriver, May 15th 2022 at 3:47 PM

For some reason can't get better stairs to convert to the inner corner. It only will go to normal or outer.

💬 WesCookie, May 15th 2022 at 3:37 PM

I know you're not interested in making smaller mods with all the different features (and I agree, that would be a nightmare to manage), but would you be opposed to -- at some point -- including config options to enable to disable elements of this mod? I love it, but some of the "not-so primative" aren't quite my cup of tea. I understand if it doesn't fit your vision of the mod, its still great either way!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Apr 24th 2022 at 4:07 PM

BoomerBill,

Sorry, I'm not terribly interested in addressing that - i'd almost consider the inaccuracy of the tool models to be a bug in the vanilla game.  At least one other mod has addressed your suggestion.  I wonder if this isn't something that the "Primitive Tools" modder might be interested in?

After the next release, I've got my sights set on a primitive irrigation system and a Monjolo (water powered hammer), both of which I've had on the back-burner for a long time now.

💬 BoomerBill, Apr 19th 2022 at 6:09 AM

A small suggestion, but seeing as the models for stone-age tools seem to have some sort of cordage securing the head to the handle, it might be nice to see that reflected in crafting. Perhaps one might be able to knap a flint flake which would essentially be an extremely fragile stone knife with maybe ten to twenty uses so to cut grass and craft it into a cord of some sort? Or perhaps the ability to use a knapped knife blade on its own as a knife with a 25% chance of the player being hurt while using it? Something to that effect.

Does somebody know a solution for this ?

💬 breez, Feb 16th 2022 at 10:56 AM

I have a feature request--some means of hanging a hook vertically in confined spaces. Not for fishing, mind, but for storage.

Consider the following example:
Three limb lines used as storage.

This area's way too tight for the usual trot-line-style fish hook arrangement, but these limb lines just look kind of silly. Ideally, I'd have some way of dangling these hooks from the ceiling, possibly by driving these stakes into a dirt wall and then running a hook off of them.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 14th 2022 at 1:54 AM

@lisabet - yes I can do that.  I've added it to the to-do list.

💬 Lisabet, Feb 13th 2022 at 12:52 AM

@spearandfang would you be willing to change the bone hook recipe to be less formless and more specific? it's conflicting with the petai mod's whistle, which is the knife under the bone in the upper left of the crafting window

💬 lOganmalONE, Feb 9th 2022 at 8:01 PM

@CaveSalamander

Thanks for the advice. This helps greatly.. I'm so acclimated to using crouch mode when using tools and placing items that I perform it habitually.  I'll use your advice. ☺️

 

@SpearAndFang

Thank you for your advice. The message about adding sand or dirt was what confused me since I was crouching each time, I attempted to execute placement of sand or dirt. Thanks for the extra information about the spike trap. I'm glad you mentioned that it attracts wildlife as I was thinking about building more than twenty spike traps in the area needed for a lasting food source.  👍

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 9th 2022 at 7:46 PM

Thanks CaveSalamander,
I was seeing some conflicts of sorts with this mod and Carry Capacity (as in Carry Capacity was preventing some of my sneak clicking from working), so like a bull in a china shop I went through this mod and removed most of the sneak clicking requirements.

I'm assuming I may have missed something in the documentation/guide/in-game after making those changes.

💬 CaveSalamander, Feb 9th 2022 at 3:50 PM

@lOganmalONE

We had a bit of trouble with this as well because we obviously tried crouch-placing first. You need to not hold down any modifiers, just 'place' as if placing a block.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Feb 8th 2022 at 9:00 PM

lOganmalONE,

If you have the hud display thing turned on and are looking at your pit trap cover, I believe it tells you at the top of the screen what to do next.  Once the sticks are in sideways, you add three layers of grass and then a block of sand or dirt to finish it.

If you're trying to make a covered pit larger than 2x2, you can actually "weave" sticks into the side of existing sticks (like a criss/cross pattern).  You can actually make a covered pit of any size with a little practice.

Also worth noting -, the covered trap is a bit experimental - a completed covered trap DOES become a point of interest (much like a trough full of food) in order to attract animals to it.  Therefore, if it's other players you are trying to trap you'll need to somehow prevent animals from reaching the trap.

The video I've posted here does show me quickly assembling a 2x2 pit trap, if that helps.

As much as I'd like to update the handbook guide, because there are so many translated languages it has become quite difficult to effectively do so  :(

And thanks!


💬 lOganmalONE, Feb 8th 2022 at 7:50 PM

Adding a layer of dirt or sand to the top isn't working nor it is described well. I had both in my inventory and neither of them cover the Pit Trap, in stead they damage and break the cover repeatedly. Can you explain in detial how place either dirt or sand properly and have it documented in the mods information guide?   Thanks  for your great work !!! 

💬 Pavel_Haid, Jan 29th 2022 at 7:18 PM

SpearAndFang,

Probably you are right. I don't have the latest version of Net Framework. In fact, my current OS does not support the latest ones. So, unfortunately, I cannot use your mod. At least, until I'll be able to move to the newer software.

Anyway, thank you for your help and quick response!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 28th 2022 at 11:49 PM

Pavel_Haid,
If I'm reading that right, you'll need to update your Net Framework. In Windows 10, it should install .Net Framework 4.8 automatically via Windows Update.  For older Windows, you should be able to manually download and install like .Net Framework 4.7.2 from Microsoft's website.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 28th 2022 at 3:39 PM

Pavel_Haid,
Thanks!  I have tested and played this mod extensively in 1.16+.  It should work for you just fine.  A couple of things:
1.  Check your mods folder and ensure that you don't have more than one copy of Primitive Survival in there.  That will break it.
2.  Ensure you have the latest version of the mod (2.8.0).  Older versions will not work with 1.16+

If neither of those help, we probably need to look ar your vintagestorydata\logs\server-main.txt file and possibly even client-main.txt to see what is breaking it.

💬 Pavel_Haid, Jan 28th 2022 at 1:18 PM

Hello. First of all thank you for great work. I used to play with this mod on the previous VS version and it was great.

However with update to 1.16.1 version I dont see the content of the mod in the game anymore. I've updated the mod to the latest version and restarted the game. In the game, in the mod list, I also can see the mode enabled. But when I enter the world I see nothing related to the mod content( the simplest example: no additional knapping/pottery resepts ). Besides the Primitive Survival I am running only few QoL mods so there should not be any conflicts. Oh, and I play in singleplayer if it matters.

Is there any stuff I missed and need to check to run the mod on 1.16.1 version?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 26th 2022 at 7:39 AM

Thanks Ziver, and for the heads up on the fish fillets - definitely not intentional.  I've added it to the to-do list for the next update.

Hello, love the mod so far. But fish fillets in the oven are tiny. Like, the size of 2 pixels tiny. Is this intentional?

💬 Foxxide, Jan 21st 2022 at 10:59 PM

That's exactly what I needed, thanks!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 21st 2022 at 2:46 AM

Foxxide,
You can definitely make a weir trap in a 3x3 hole, but you would need to use one edge of your hole as one side of the trap - in which case you only need 5 stakes. Fill the hole with water first.  The side that will form the M when you click on it should have an empty water block on both sides of it. 
 
Row 1: WWW
Row 2: SXS
Row 3: SWS

W=Water. S= Stake, X = Stake that will become the M

Sneak click might be getting blocked by the Carry Capacity mod, so I changed my mod long ago to no longer require sneaking for anything (although you still can).



💬 Foxxide, Jan 20th 2022 at 10:36 PM

heyo, noice mod. I've been reading the guide and trying to make a wier trap and im not having any luck. cant find any like videos on it either. im trying it in creative if that makes a difference. made a 3x3 and filled it with water, stakes on all sides with a water block in the middle, tried shift right clicking and nothing happens

💬 Pervy_Sage, Jan 20th 2022 at 1:31 AM

I'm playing vs 1.16 so v2.8.0 I have found a few but my game play tends to be out of the normal from other players. I go overboard with stuff so the piddly stack of worms I found have dwindled, much to my chagrin. It's good to know I can stop searching when winter is in.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 20th 2022 at 1:02 AM

Pervy_Sage
No time limit, and that temperature applies to all worms.  If the temperature is outside of that range they immediately die.
I'm starting to think that you might not be playing with the latest release of Primitive Survival.  I accidently broke earthworm spawning completely in the v2.7.3 release for VS 1.15.10.  It was fixed in Primitive Survival v2.8.0, the release for the latest version of Vintage Story (1.16).  Had forgotten about that or I would have mentioned it sooner.

💬 Pervy_Sage, Jan 20th 2022 at 12:31 AM

SpearAndFang,

Is there a time limit that the stones have to be on the ground to get worms when you place the stones yourself? Also that tempurature requirement is that only for placing my own stones to get worms or is that also for natural placed stones and sticks?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 19th 2022 at 3:36 PM

MrBone,
I was thinking about this of late, but another modder (Catasteroid) has been posting some pictures of fur clothing on the VS Discord recently, so I'm going to wait and see where that goes.

💬 MrBone, Jan 19th 2022 at 2:17 PM

Any chance you're going to add primitive fur clothes to this? It's kinda silly that the only option for keeping warm in winter is either buying clothes or lighting a fire. Bone (for needles), twine and furs are plentiful, and it's kinda silly there's no option to make thread from some of the furs.

 

Plus it would be awesome to be able to go full cave person in this game.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 19th 2022 at 7:43 AM

Pervy_Sage
Only soil if I remember correctly, and you must right click pickup the rocks/flint/sticks, not break them.  Or in tree hollows. Or you can place rocks on soil and pick them back up, although the odds are much lower.  The temperature must be between 0-35c. If the Richer than Dirt mod still works you can pan for them.  I'm playing 1.16 and have lots of worms.  

💬 Pervy_Sage, Jan 19th 2022 at 7:10 AM

Can you get worms from natural placed rocks and sticks on sand and gravel? I've yet to get one after many tries. And either I'm really unlucky but sticks seem to have a lower chance than even normal rocks. I've picked up a lot and over never get a worm from them.

💬 Shion, Jan 18th 2022 at 5:03 AM

Current version of the mod has a desync error. When taking the fish of the hook that you already have it seems to go both to the stack with the same fish and to another free slot. Yet on server side it goes only to the stack, creating desync of inventory that can lead to lose of items.

💬 Pervy_Sage, Jan 18th 2022 at 2:14 AM

SpearAndFang,

Thanks, would it be possible to add a small percentage chance to get them while digging? It makes since but you might have some balance issue of which I'm not aware.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 18th 2022 at 12:40 AM

Pervy_Sage,
That's my bad, sorry.  That should say sticks.  As in naturally occuring sticks laying on the ground (like dirt, mostly). I've updated the documentation.
Hint:  More worms can be found under sticks and flint than under other rocks.

💬 Pervy_Sage, Jan 17th 2022 at 10:26 PM

So far I've been unable to find worms by right clicking branches. Is it only branchy leaves or all leaves? Does the worm fall to the ground if the leaves are in the air?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 16th 2022 at 4:02 AM

Shion,
Can I?  Yes.  Will I?  Probably not.  Although I have discussed doing this very thing with others in the past.

Can you add fish-slap animation for a player when holding a fish?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 11th 2022 at 3:48 PM

PIBx,

Ahh yes, thanks.  There were big changes with Vintage Story and the latest release, hence the newer version of Primitive Survival.  As with many mods, people must use the release which matches their game version and ensure that only that one version is installed.

I'm not sure about your server issue though - automatic mod downloading is new to VS 1.16. I've just now updated my version tag for the latest release here on modDB, perhaps that will in some way help with your situation.

Prior to that, people had to manually add mods to both server and client. I would like to think that you have the ability to remove old server side mods via FTP to your server host - if not, you will have to contact your server hosting support.

Of course, it's relatively easy to browse to and remove mods manually from your client machine. 

💬 PIBx, Jan 11th 2022 at 9:27 AM

after updating to 1.16 stable my game crashed also when i tried to attach a cordage to a stake.

the problem seems to be that my copy of the plugin was too old. i had v2.7.3 installed. after updating it to v2.8.0 everything went ok and i dont have any more crashes

 

edit: damn, not everything is ok. i dont have any problems in singleplayer. but if i put the new mod version in my server (the server starts) and try to connect with the game client, i get the following error msg:

Version: v1.16.0 (Stable)11.01.2022 14:17:20: Critical error occurred
System.ArgumentException: An item with the same key has already been added. Key: primitivesurvival

...

 

the reason is, that my game client has stored the old mod version localy and dont overwrite it.

in the directory /home/{user}/.config/VintagestoryData/ModsByServer/{serverurl}/ are all mods which where used by this server. there is the old PrimitiveSurvival2.7.3.zip and also the new PrimitiveSurvival2.8.0.zip.

i can connect if i manually delete the old one.

i dont know if you can do something about that. i think the vintagestory-team has to work on that, right?

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 11th 2022 at 12:57 AM

DropSudden

I am not having that issue on 1.16.0 (stable)  so I'm not sure what's going on there.

The only mod I can think of that might cause that crash is Survival Categories.  If you have that mod, I'd recommend removing it as it hasn't been released for 1.16. 

Maybe too it's a problem with a language file (if you are not using English).

Otherwise, feel free to share your server-main.txt and client-main.txt logs here, on the forums (click on the "homepage" link above), or via Discord (SpearAndFang#6757).  You'll find them in your ../VintageStoryData/logs folder.

Takata_Cheroki

I have played my mod extensively with every 1.16.x release (including 1.16.0 stable just now), and cannot recreate any of the issues you are having.

If I had to guess, I'd say that you have two different versions of Primitive Survival sitting in your mods folder.

Look in your ../VintageStoryData/mods folder.  Everything in there should either be a zip file or maybe a dll or 3...no folders, no duplicates, no backups, no unzipped mods, no older mods or unused mods tucked away in there for safekeeping.   If everything looks good, please feel free to share your server-main.txt and client-main.txt logs here, on the forums (click on the "homepage" link above), or via Discord (SpearAndFang#6757).

Issue with crashing on 1.16.0 (stable) when trying to attach cord to a stake to make a limb-line/trot-line for fishing

EDIT: Also crashes when trying to make a weir trap, and when trying to place a fish basket.

Basically all attempts at fishing cause the whole game to crash.

EDIT 2: Game crashes when attempting to place any kind of trap, including deadfalls and snares.

Issue with crashing on 1.16.0 (stable) when in creative, opeing the inventory, and clicking the primitive tab.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Jan 4th 2022 at 3:27 PM

There's nothing linking that mod to Primitive Survival on my end, but I would like to think that the two mods can at least coexist without issue.

💬 FaithlessZealot, Jan 4th 2022 at 2:33 PM

Just wondering is there compatilibility with the Ancient Tools mod? mods.vintagestory.at/ancienttools#showchangelog

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 31st 2021 at 10:43 PM

I've added more game version tags and a friendly url, maybe it works now?  I'm not sure what is preventing it from automatically downloading.

💬 StewBag, Dec 31st 2021 at 12:43 AM

Anyone else having issues with this mod automatically downloading with a 1.16 server? All other mods are distributed fine but this says it doesnt exsist.

💬 Travisplo, Dec 25th 2021 at 11:26 PM

Crabs drop knives, pffffft. XP

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 22nd 2021 at 8:06 PM

New release just dropped for all you trailblazers.  Check the Changelog for details.  Enjoy!

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 22nd 2021 at 4:32 AM

Appreciated Anyone!  I've got a release for 1.16 basically ready for release...just need to figure out why the crab/snake spawning mostly stopped working.  Expect something in 7 days or less.

💬 Anyone, Dec 13th 2021 at 9:19 AM

I'm playing on pre.8 (I know it's probably not at all compatible) & I keep getting crashes when I look at tree hollows. Just thought I'd let you know. Cool mod though.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 12th 2021 at 7:33 PM

Just a brief update after some testing with 1.15.10

Confirmed - The earthworm is NOT spawning under sticks/flint/rocks - will be fixed for the next release - thanks GrishkoJiggers!
Confirmed - The monkey bridge IS working @RSilience. My next best guess is that something next to an endpoint or between the endpoints is preventing the placement - try clearing snow, grass, vines etc.

💬 GrishkoJiggers, Dec 10th 2021 at 11:48 PM

Cheers! (Great mod btw-- my friends all love it too).

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 10th 2021 at 3:29 PM

Thanks, I'll see if I can reproduce that weirdness and with any luck come up with a solution.

💬 GrishkoJiggers, Dec 10th 2021 at 2:48 AM

On v1.15.10, I found a compatibility issue with XSkills/XLib that makes worms not spawn when picking up stones/branches. I'll do a little bit of searching to see if I can't fix it, but I'm also very dumb.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Dec 7th 2021 at 3:23 AM

I skipped 1.15.10 but it should work just fine You click on the bottom of the two blocks.  But you need several pieces of monkey bridge, like 1 for every block in distance between the two endpoints (if you've ever set up a trotline, the procedure is the same), so maybe that's the problem?

💬 RSilience, Dec 6th 2021 at 10:10 PM

I'm unable to create a monkey bridge between 2 points :(. Is it because i'm using 1.15.10?

I tried between 2 logs that where at least 2 blocks high and about 4 blocks apart. also tried a longer on. It's supposed to connect by right clicking right?

 

With kind regards,

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 28th 2021 at 2:50 AM

Primitive Survival 2.7.3 released.
Another minor release to tidy up some relatively minor issues:

- Updated: Russian translation - thanks ZigTheHedge
- Fixed: broken fireworks recipes (Fountain, Beenade) - thanks to players on Dragoness' Twitch stream for bringing it to my attention
- Fixed: Modinfo dependencies - thanks DArkHekRoMaNT
- Fixed: snake and crab meat pies naming/textures - thanks Papa Cheese
- Tweak: decreased crabmeat drops a bit
- Tweak: decreased spawn rates, decreased spawn quantities, added many more spawn conditions for crabs and snakes - thanks Vallen

Server Moderators: If the spawn rates are STILL too high for crabs and snakes, my next best suggestion is to edit some files inside the zip file. Look in the folder assets\primitivesurvival\entities\land and decrease the "chance" entry (the very last entry) in one or more of the following files:

Bairdi Crab (crab-bairdicrab.json)
Land Crab (crab-landcrab.json)
Black Rat Snake (snake-blackrat.json)
Chain Viper (snake-chainviper.json)
Coachwhip Snake (snake-coachwhip.json)
Pit Viper (snake-pitviper.json)

I'm guessing that you should divide the current chance by the number of people that typically play on that server and use that number.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 28th 2021 at 2:19 AM

I just tried mucking with trotlines and everything seemed fine.  If you're running Vintage Story v1.15.10 (the version released yesterday), that is likely what's causing the problem.

Other than that, since nobody else has reported a similar problem (and the trotline hasn't changed in a long time), I'd look first at your VintageStoryData/mods folder.  Everything in there should either be a zip file or maybe a dll or 3...no folders, no duplicates, no backups, no unzipped mods, no older mods or unused mods tucked away in there for safekeeping.  You could also try reinstalling Vintage Story 1.15.9 (always use the FULL installer).

If you're using multiplayer, make sure everyone is using the same version of Vintage Story and Primitive Survival, and NOT Vintage Story 1.15.10.

If none of the info above is helpful, then feel free to share your server-main.txt and client-main.txt logs here, on the forums (click on the "homepage" link above), or via Discord (SpearAndFang#6757).

 

💬 Kato, Nov 27th 2021 at 10:50 PM

For whatever reasons whenever I got to interact with a trotline or anything when trying to fish it instantly crashes the game for me. I have the logs as well if I need to provide them.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 26th 2021 at 2:31 AM

Hi Vallen!
I believe that your assessment of the situation is spot on.  As these are my first worldgen/runtime mobs, I'm having all kinds of problems managing spawn locations and frequency, and continue to struggle to find magic numbers that work well in both singleplayer and multiplayer.  I will definitely take a shot at making the spawn rates easily configurable - this would help for sure.

And thanks for the kind words!

💬 VallenModerator, Nov 25th 2021 at 4:36 PM

Heya SpearAndFang,

I recognize that mob spawns are a tricky thing. I'm on v2.7.2 on a server. In the desert we have a large quantity of crabs and snakes spawning. By this I mean I can see 7-8 snakes from my base at any time and are seeing about the same in crabs any time we approach a water source. Are you considering adding a config option for those mob spawns (if that's even doable)? I realize this may be completely different for single player and in another biome as well but I thought I'd at least report these findings in hopes that they are useful. Thanks again for the great mod. We <3 you.

-Vallen

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 24th 2021 at 3:40 PM

Glad to hear it Verlia, thanks for the follow up. 😀

💬 Verlia, Nov 23rd 2021 at 7:39 PM

Thanks SF for upping their rate a little <3 I finally see crabs and noodles here and there. <3 Makes my heart warm :3

💬 DArkHekRoMaNT, Nov 23rd 2021 at 4:08 PM

Correct "dependencies" and in modinfo.json SpearAndFang

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 21st 2021 at 10:57 PM

Agreed.  I revisited those spawn parameters and they should be functional again.  Thanks!

I've also added tree hollows - Natures treasure chest - they appear at the base or side of many types of trees, and much like resin, are occasionally replenished.  Or chop them down and use them as a chest at your base.

New release...released.

💬 Verlia, Nov 21st 2021 at 9:43 PM

Since the last update when their spawn rate was tuned down, I haven't seen a single snake or crab. :/ I've been in a lot of environments, do they have a real particular liking? I always hope to see noodles in the least, maybe a crab here and there. But none. :/

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 14th 2021 at 6:53 AM

I've moved on to other things, but if you would like to improve them they can be found in assets\primitivesurvival\shapes\entity\land and can be edited with Vintage Story Model Creator

💬 YourCreator, Nov 13th 2021 at 7:20 PM

Please fix snake's movement, they are really like walking dance xDD. 

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 8th 2021 at 1:09 AM

New release: v2.7.1

Updated Russian translation - courtesy of ZigTheHedge.  Amazing, thanks Zig!

I've made a number of changes to snakes/crabs to hopefully address most all of the feedback I've gotten so far.
- Turned up the minimum spawn temperatures for crabs and snakes, to make it much less likely that they spawn in winter.
- Set the max spawn light level to hopefully prevent these same entities from spawning in animal stalls.
- Halved the overall spawn level of these new entities. Along with the temperature and light level changes, this should help.

Thanks all!  Appreciate the kind words!

💬 GamingToast, Nov 7th 2021 at 7:54 PM

Is there a way to reduce the amount of Snakes and Crabs spawning? I am running this on an Server and we have around 10 snakes per chunk which doesn't feel intended. Well there are too many snakes and i can't find anything in the configs (or maybe i'm just blind) to reduce the spawn amount

💬 ihenh, Nov 7th 2021 at 7:18 PM

I just updated the mod. There are a few pretty nice additions. But apparently the "never hostile" setting does not affect crabs and snakes. If possible please update so that "never hostile" applies to added animals or add a "damage points" setting to the config file, which can be set to "0".

I got literally chopped in pieces by a crab hidden in deep snow (I did not expect a crab during winter,  -8°C does not feel like a crab friendly weather condition ❄️ )... Soon after that, my chickens were "attacked" by a chainviper. None of my chickens died, so I wonder: Are snakes predators like foxes or wolves?? Do I have to remove grass blocks in my pen in order to prevent snakes to spawn?

💬 1618, Nov 7th 2021 at 5:12 PM

Love the new update. Especially the animals. Id like to see Birds, Frogs, and Turtles added.

Please consider making this interact with the "Omniummod" mod, which has Oceans and actual Fish swimmiing in the waters.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Nov 7th 2021 at 12:24 AM

Four different noodles to be precise, and none of the pool variety.  Thanks for the update on your issue.

💬 Verlia, Nov 6th 2021 at 11:33 PM

Hey Spear&Fang, sorry, turned out the server owner didn't have the mod installed, lel. Love the new video/update! Is that - A NOODLE?! xD

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 25th 2021 at 7:24 AM

Should be fine - I've been using it aok, but I haven't tested every individual block/item yet.  If it's not even loading, you'll want to check and remove previous versions of the mod, and you might even try deleting VintageStoryData-ModConfig-PrimitiveSurvival.json, although I doubt that that's the problem.  I might even recommend doing a full install of 1.15.7 rather than an upgrade - I've always gone the full install route.

💬 Verlia, Oct 24th 2021 at 9:53 PM

Hey Spear&Fang, is the mod up to date to be played on 15.7? I've it installed but doesn't seem to be working.

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 24th 2021 at 8:43 AM

A number of artifacts will show up in fish baskets and weir traps - you can place a temporal relic on the ground and then add additional pieces to it (like a small jigsaw puzzle).  One such completed puzzle will open the necronomicon to reveal one of two ways to complete an altar (using the same temporal relic as a starting point).  An activated altar is dangerous but rewarding.

💬 Monia, Oct 23rd 2021 at 2:43 PM

What is this "Necronomicon"?

 

💬 SpearAndFangAuthor, Oct 6th 2021 at 9:40 PM

Hmmm.  Not sure what the problem is exactly. I rather arbitrarily threw that one on the end because of a bug in this ModDB website.  The mod itself is definitely 2.6.21.
Maybe for whatever reason it's looking at the filename of the zip file?  If so, just rename it in your mods folder (add the one).  While you're in there make sure you don't have some other version of Primitive Survival kicking around.

💬 PeterSanderson, Oct 6th 2021 at 4:37 PM

Hi there - I just did a fresh download this morning, but the server I am attempting to connect to keeps asking for version 2.6.21.
