For those with xSkill https://mods.vintagestory.at/blacksmithenhancements works with the quenching Skills.

Just so everyone asking for Xskills compat is aware, you can get the bonus from quenching by throwing whatever item you smithed into water

Would you consider sharing your source code so others can work on compatibility patches?

Looks like the last or last few updates broke this one, it's causing crashes now.

Ah, exactly as Xandu said, there's the comment. Yes please. I can't go back to throwing stuff inaccurately into a pile of water, missing, picking it up, trying again, faffing for ages, wasting space in my forge, burning myself etc. I need this mod but I also need that sweet, sweet quality bonus from xskills :D

Hi. I think this mod sets the temperature attributes directly instead of using the Collectible.SetTemperature() method. Switching to the method should make it work with xskills. Just wanted to say this here because it seems like quite some people have commented about this.

hello make this compatible with xSkills pls

I wanted this but since its not compatible with XSkills i had to decide not to =-(

I'd adore if this was compatible with xskills!

I'm seeing other commenters note that it seems to not work with the 'xskills' mod's quality perk, which lets you get a quality on your items you throw in water to cool down. Would love to see this get a compatibility patch, as I have been yearning for a mod like this, but am also a 'xskills' user. Great mods!

Yeah, same here. Noticed it way later into my playthrough lol.

I noticed the same thing happening as vandawn. I like the immersive quenching enough that I hadn't bothered testing it out until I made several stacks of nails and quenched them all at the same time.

Really great mod! Perfect for survival bases, were you cant just create water. One thing that I observed, is that it doesn't work with XSkill's quality, where the quality increses when you quench. SaltyWater

MrFastZombie Thank you sir! ^^

I am a huge fan of mods like this that just make crafting more immersive, keep 'em coming!

Ejooj Hey! Already works with barrels and buckets

Can we have it work on filled barrels as well for those who play with no water source creation enabled ? :P

Thanks for the update and for the great mod! 🥰

VividVoid uh oh. I forgot to remove debugging again! 🤠

So I noticed this mod is spamming my console with hundreds of debug lines. Stuff along the lines of

with absolutely no end to them.

This only seems to occur while someone is actively quenching. For single player I can see it not being an issue but we use the mod on the server, which makes it quite a problem :)

bringitonwimps Only when they release the stable 1.20

by any chance these mods coming to 1.20 soon?

SaltyWater You are the big cheese, friend! Thanks a whole bunch!

DraGonKniGht20 Hey!! Thanks for the feedback, I've released a hotfix.

@SaltyWater has anyone experienced inconsistent quenching? Like sometimes it'll work and other times it wont. Like last night i was doing some smithing, made a wrench for a friend and it quenched fine. Then I was making a knife 5 minutes later, and I would sit there holding on the barrel of water that i had just quenched the wrench in, and that dang knife blade was not quenching in the slightest.

edit: I'm playing on 1.19.8

MineAnPlay Right? Maybe it was on the off hand? Does it have that flag? Was you quenching something right before the error?

SaltyWaterHmm, weird. Can't seem to reproduce after the first time. Maybe a caching issue? When the error first occurred I was able to replicate it in single player but now that I am doing more testing can't seem to replicate it. If I get more info/replicate the issue will give more details.

MineAnPlay Strange, The mod already detects items that can be heat up (The mod checks if said item has the temperature attribute in its data tree). What are the properties of said book? I do not play with XSkills. I will take a look into it and do some testing next year! Thanks for the feedback!

Found a critical bug. "Eating" XSkills books while looking at water causes manual quenching to be detected (which it shouldn't in the first place) which results in manual quenching to over react and spam the logs with the following error:

Exception: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at ManualQuenching.GradualQuenching(IServerPlayer player, ItemSlot slot, String playerUID, Boolean isBarrel, Boolean isBucket)
at ManualQuenching.<>c__DisplayClass4_3.<OnGameTick>b__0(Single _)

at Vintagestory.Server.ServerMain.Process() in VintagestoryLib\Server\ServerMain.cs:line 886

The error is spammed at a rate of 2000+ per second xD. Since it doesn't crash and continues to error, can easily eat up someones entire drive space (was over 100+mb after a minute) and since it is constantly spammed you can't interact with server console either.

The over reaction needs to be fixed first and black list XSkills books when the mod is detected (or maybe only detect "hot" items or items that can heat up? Not sure how it works in the backend exactly).

I've only tried copper but seems to work for 1.20 rc1

Love the mod, however for some reason it doesn't work on iron for me, and even seems to stop the item from cooling down naturally if I try to quench it. I've tried quenching in both a barrel and a water block. Playing version 1.19.8 on Linux.

Antar Hey! Thank you so much for the kind words! you've made both of us smile! She thanked you for liking her art and sent kisses! ^^

Legendary modder. Very good quality with animations and sound effects taken into account. Very good presentation too, your GF's art is great and gives everything a consistant look that makes you easily recognizable. I hope you keep it up! These manual mods are exactly what the game needs.

Afroman726 Hey thanks!! I can't take the credit for that, my gf does al the art haha! ^^

SaltyWater Your mod logos look so cool!!! Love your work! :D

HersheysWaffles Aye, quenching in oil does produce flames but last I checked it's quite the common practice within blacksmithing to quench in oil.

pariba the oil would catch fire lol

Very nice. Would be awesome if we could quench blades in oil instead but I guess that would require either a mod like Expanded Foods or your own kind of oil to be added

Jena_Thornwyrd Lets goooooooo <3

Tadpole24 Thanks for the kind words friend! It would be very nice if at least some of my mods where already vanilla features haha

SniperGecko haha no problem it happens

SaltyWater : making VS even moar FUCKING IMMERSIVE, one "little" mod at a time ! <3

I love your mods so much glad to see this one come out. I fell in love with this game because of how it feels and this just adds to the immersion! Keep up the good work and maybe one day we could see your mods as real features <3

Willing to include shift-hold hot ingot on barrel of water support?

If only I'd read beyond the latest two comments. I'm sorry.

Thalius Thank you for the kind words friend! I completely agree with you! Doing things manually is much more fun!
I will update'em once the stable is out! ^^

Hey Salty! Just wanted to say I'm loving your mods. Very much the sort of stuff the game needs, in my personal opinion. More "manual" processes and less grid crafting. Can't wait to see the grid crafting feature done away with in VS altogether, one day.

Very much hoping and looking forward to seeing your mods updated for stable VS 1.20!

Hey Mega_Gay yeah it would! I think it can be implemented!

Very neat, would be awesome if we could do this with barrels of water too, but I understand that might be difficult
