AzuliBluespots its an interesting thought, but it feels pretty anti-thetical to the intention of sneaking, And could easilly get someone killed if they forget they were holding it in their off hand when they were trying to be sneaky. 🤔

Fuami
Maybe the shield? It does activate something when sneaking. Maybe that could trigger the zoom function?

@Thranos New versino should fix the 1.20-rc1 issue.

@DeanBro This should be included in the version.

Chupacabra I honestly am not aware of any other items with this sort of functionality, if anyone knows of something that can be used in their off hand that might be used as a guide let me know.

@pizza2004 I believe that the spyglass fits in with a number of the other tools that never lose durability, so I doubt I'd be adding this; plus there are other clientside mods for zooming and I think such punishment would push people towards those options when they prefer the immersion of this mod.

Sadly, seems nonfunctional on 1.20.

Do you think you could add a config option to make the edge opacity stay the same when you scroll to change zoom? I set my opacity to 1 but it becomes transparent when I zoom out. Other than that, I love the mod, great work!

thanks

Great mod! Is there a way to use it in you'r offhand?

I would love it if you made it so that when you actually use the spyglass it uses up the durability.  You could even add a small bit of code that make sure if someone cancels before it full zooms in that it doesn't use up the durability.  The code for the hoe in vanilla is a good example to look at for this.

That way there'd be a legitimate reason to try and make the better kinds of spyglass!  You could even adjust the durability to whatever felt most balanced.

MrL972 Is there an issue your seeing? I just tried spyglass v0.5.1 out on vs 1.19.5 and everything seems fine, so I assume the same for Dot 4, minor releases have rarely broken anything important.

can you update to 1.19.4 ?

Сhanged the recipe for the lens from the kingdom of memories mod. 
spyglass.json

Orangutanion its made with glass? And thats usually made with clear quartz? If you don't like the recipe or something feel free to change the json.

Thx a lot for the update, we'll try in a few hours ^^

XurxoMF Please try 0.5.1 ( Intentalo con la versión 0.5.1 )

AzuliBluespots I've added the localization to the mod itself.

I'm surprised to see this getting an update.
Since I used it a lot, I added the pt-br translation to crowdin ✌

Thank you Fuami, I will check it out today!

Edit: Worked like a champ, I'm loving it, thanks again!

CilyMe I've added new settings that should enable this, you might need to remove your existing config file for it to generate one with all the new options.

CilyMe I can probobly add some new settings to make this possible, I can see the utility.

Bruco lol, nice one.

Bruco, I don't think it's lame at all! I use it extensively and never leave home without it. I use it like you do for locating sap on trees, bees, and crops on the ground. I also use it for locating terra preta, scanning the surrounding terrain for signs of bears and wolves, peering down holes in the ground to look for entrances to ruins, and for finding ores in rock faces of distant mountains. This is easily my favorite QoL mod to date!

So, I was hoping to use this mod to help me find bees nests and sap/resin. Was wondering would it be lame like telescopes in others mods and games? I make it. I use it. First thing I see is a sap in a vinelog of a tall tree that was indistiguishable to my eye but was right under(above;D) my nose the whole time. Great work !!!

Would it be possible to add a config option to turn on the ability to have the last used zoom level preserved for the next time you use the spyglass? Sometimes I like it all the way zoomed out, but have to zoom out each time i use it. Not a deal breaker to be sure, I love the mod regardless, but it would be nice to have it at the last set zoom level on each use.

Hello.

Here is the russian translation of the mod.

https://pastebin.com/C7H5iZH7

Thank you, my favourite mod just got more awesome! 💚

Tels Agreed, some how I missed this comment all this time... but no longer!

Botaxalim After considering your comment, and other similar items in the game, I think that removing DamageBy makes sense. Smacking things with laterns dosn't damage them for instance, if for no other reason then being consistent with the rest of the game.

i make some edit for personal use, i remove the durability and parameter called DamagedBy, since i dont like idea spyglass destroyed after accidentally left clicking ground (happen when my golden spyglass broke)
its great addition for the game, you can spot more stuff while exploring

Yeah, that’s a good start at least. I don’t even really know how VS handles its ruin loot. I’m used to mod-making other games that use the standard loot table. So I’ll look into it. But having the item I.D. is a big help.

@RuneScholar I'm not familiar with loot tables, but the items themselves should be "spyglass:spyglass-copper" or "spyglass:spytube-copper" replacing copper with the various materials: copper, tinbronze, bismuthbronze, blackbronze, gold, silver, iron, meteoriciron, brass, steel.

Adding those somewhere inside of the tables might make sense?

Hey, if I wanted to put spyglasses in the loot tables for ruins, how would I go about doing that?

I know this reply is late, but yes it does.

Ponchoandlefty

Does this mod still work in version 1.18.15?

Hello !
I translated your mod in french :)

https://pastebin.com/5vw9FT8B

Seems to work in 1.18.

It would be really nice to be able to make a "bismuth" spyglass for the pretty green colors :)

Hey! the drifters in my server (1.17.2 and 1.17.3) seem to stop moving. The console says ''[server error] Task with code drifterwander (also drifterseekentity and drifterfleeentity) for entity game:drifter(any kind) does not exist. ignoring. Upon removing spyglass, all drifters start moving again.

Thank you! :)

Existing versions should work for 1.16 if you have issues let me know.

Could you please update the mod for 1.16? It's such a fun mod :) Thank you!

Yeah for steampunk brass spyglass \o/

You read my mind! I was looking for a spyglass mod yesterday, and boom, now it exists!

Whoops, Sort of forgot to upload the file :D

Very nice, that is something I always wished for! :)

There are no downloadable files here, tho?
