New update for VS 1.20.4 !!!

With so many mods, I have to narrow it down somehow. I will first test the mods to see if the same key combination is used by default as for my scarecrow mod. With the last update I forced an empty inventory field to pick up the scarecrows. That might help.

But I would also like to have a look at this on the server myself. If it affects everyone on the server, it should also apply to a new member. Which server is it exactly rosysyn?

Mandikor It actually affects all players on the server - none of us can pick up scarecrows :( No worries though - my mod list is rather large, so I'm sure there's something in there that isn't working correctly alongside your mod. I'll see if I can figure it out. Thanks for looking :)

rosysyn I started a single player test map with all the mods from your list. In game, I was able to pick up the scarecrows with CTRL + right click with no problems. The log files are flooded with errors, but almost all recipe, texture or patch errors. I might have to take a look at this on the server.

If it's a general error, then it should affect all players on the server. If only a few players are affected, you would have to clarify what these players have in common that the rest of the players don't have. I'm thinking of the chosen class.

Mandikor idk if this helps, but this is my full mod list:

https://pastebin.com/81y9v5cS

I looked through them, thinking about what might be causing the issue but... I honestly have no idea. CarryOn was my best guess. Something is preventing me (and others on my server) from picking up the scarecrows.

Hello rosysyn.
I have tested the Scarecrow mod together with the CarryOn mod and could not understand your description. It could well be caused by another mod. With a list of the mods used, I can better recreate the situation or narrow down the error.

In 1.20.3, I can't seem to pick up the little scarecrow once placed. When I hold ctrl + right click, it just does a little hand waving animation...? Might be an incompatibility with CarryOn, as that uses a similar key combo. I tried editing the CarryOn hotkeys a bit but... no luck.

Thank you FNX for your translation.

Mandikor hello, i have translated your mod in russian Could you please add it to your mod, thank you.

Thank you very much for this Mokradin, I have just released an updated version.

Mandikor i have translated your mod in french, could you take a look to your gihub please ?

i thought there was the ability to add things to the list but i must of drempt it. lol

Amazing, this is exactly what I wanted. Thank you.

Already a total of 30,000 downloads. I thank you very much for that. 🤩

New version v1.6.0 recompiled for VS 1.20*.

No error messages or crashes during my own tests. If you have any problems, please let me know. 😏

LordWungus Thanks for your comment. Personally, I'll wait for the first release candidate before I switch my IDE to 1.20. But this way I already know that I have to make various adjustments.

Currently getting a crash placing the small scarecrow in 1.20 pre 7, so be careful if you're in the preview versions

By partially using Buggi's source code, I caused myself the problems with the radius adjustment. This has been fixed with the new update.

I am currently integrating the Mod Config lib from Maltiez. While playing around with the settings, I noticed that changing the radius of the scarecrows did not change the hares and raccoons. The default values remain the same.

Can anyone confirm this?

Wow ... the next small milestone has been reached ... 20000 downloads. 🤩

I think I tried everything. Will have to try again.

Ah, I had no preference, was merely asking for clarity as I only saw mention of the 8 blocks, but not dimension (but I may have missed it, sorry!)

Just good to know for when I'm laying out crops, thank you!

A simple right-click is enough to place it. If you want to remove it, you can do this with CTRL + right-click.
However, this should also be displayed as a tooltip. There may be a conflict with a key assignment of another mod.

Block radius already indicates it, it is a circle around the scarecrow. Maybe I could offer a choice between circle or square in one of the next versions.
Although that's not really right either, it's a sphere. So I would have to offer it as a sphere or a cube.

Hello, just got around to trying this mod and was wondering; is it 8/16 blocks 'square', or in a 'circle' around the scarecrow (8/16 block radius)

Thank you for the mod!

tried this mod, but cant seem to pick back up a placed scarecrow, it acts like a target dummy and doesnt take damage, and doesnt "break" so I can pick it back up.

Makes it hard to use the mod if you accidently place one its kinda there permanently...

or am I just not doing something right?

It would at least help to narrow down the source of the error. Just contact me via Discord and send me the client-debug.txt and the server-debug.txt.

I tried again with 1.2.3 but had the same issue and the same error. Would any logs help?

The server uses an older version of Scarecrow Mod (v1.2.0). However, I cannot reproduce this error with my mod.

A huge thanks for 1500 downloads. 😍

So far so good, nice little addition to the game, thanks.

Currently, hares and raccoons react at 16 blocks distance.

what kind of range does it have?
