Recommended download (for Vintage Story 1.22.0 - 1.22.2):
Easy Building 1.2.1.zip 1-click install
What this mod does:
It mostly 2x the items/blocks output in crafting. Like 14 fire clay rather than 8 or 3 plaster blocks rather than 1
Why i made it:
"Building should be fun why do i need to waste my time grinding for these basic materials when i can spend MORE time building my hut?"
It's mostly a time saver mod really, while the game doesn't play like a 1:1 to Minecraft it does speed up the building in Vintage Story for some big builds in single-player or multiplayer. Only some blocks and some items are affected maybe one or two furnitures too. Overall there is still a balance to it so it doesn't break the economy.
Vanilla wise I never liked chopping down half the forest for a single house...
What blocks are affected:
- Stone blocks and fence 4
- Dry stone and mixed dry stone 4
- Plaster 3
- Stacked bamboo block 3
- Wood blocks 4
- Wooden path 2
- Wooden roofs 2
- Wooden support beams 4
- Hay bale (from dry grass)
- Thatch reduced from 2 to 1 for crafting roof
- Copper roofs 4
- Clay shingle roofs 4
- Clay shingle block 4
- Coral block 4 and fence 4
- Mud bricks (dark n light) 6
- Scroll racks 2
- Sheet of stitched leather now gives 4
- All metal blocks now gives 6
What items are affected:
- Fire clay 14
- Coil of role 2
- Raw bricks 2
- Rushmat 2
- Raw daub 24
- Blasting powder 8
- Hay bale dry grass output nerf 8 to 4
- Large lanterns now use less nails (you only need 2)
Barrel crafting changes:
- Mortar output 8

Thanks to all the help from the official VS Discord
"Building should be fun!"
Also if you have any balance suggestions or find a dupe bug please tell me in the comments!

The recipie for Planks back to boards doesn't account for the 1:1 of boards to planks so you can make an infinate amount of boards
oh ig il fix that with a nerf
edit: fixed!
This makes the game more enjoyable. Thanks!!! 👍
np
lmao based change mortar is annoying
yeah idk why they changed it just more work and less time playing tbh
-All new updates will have a version number on the folder names :p (for Kjeldar)
and because of the Numbers, i noticed i downloaded the wrong version for 22.1 🤡
prob what happend...but yeah rn 1.1.6 is the defualt
not sure if it's a problem on my end, but at times the crafting result for some of these changes will disappear and only flash in the 'completed' slot when selected after the ingredients are placed in the grid for crafting. Could be an issue with another mod or something but thought i'd bring it to attention. It isn't a huge bug since i can just quit and reload the world at times but hope this info can help!
weird didnt had that happen maybe its other mods with similar crafting? but i do keep an eye out for bugs
I saw one of the files is labeled for 1.22.0, is this the stable version thats just released?
yes its for stable but ig ima repackage it to clean it up but overall it all works
Thanks!
The stable version is only for 1.21.6 but outdated. but since it seems people want the new code for the old version i decited to just update the files for it. it's done now!
Simon24 DerpyChariZard14
Is this mod not for 1.21.6? I know the update's coming soon but I feel like this mod doesn't work for the latest stable release
My older comment seems to have been deleted, sorry I didn't answer sooner, I was at work. But yeah, I am playing on the latest stable version 1.21.6. Should've mentioned that, sorry, I just assumed it would work, my bad
@ DUCATISLO
thank you,good sir
Kjeldar noted
edit: done
@ DUCATISLO
sorry to bother you again
the version in the download would be nice
instead of just EasyBuilding.zip
EasyBuilding 1.1.5.zip
its easier to maintain/handle for old ppl like me 😬
Kjeldar the version numbers already exist when you check the files
could you please add a version number to the name?
Dirty_Shisno np bro ima update the mod once the next big update comes
Man, This mod is essential for island life, you are a life saver my friend!
Silentfox Yeah i fixed it now as i realized the code also makes the game crash i reduced it to 2 planks now instead of 0 my mistake
the recipe to saw the wood planks block seems to output 0 planks, i cant click it at all and can't saw it because of this
Hi! This mod is giving me an error on when the world loads. The recipe for drystone still works and it doubles the output as the mod intends, so I'm not sure if it is an issue or not. Just thought I'd let you know.
Error message:
[Error] Patch 24 (target: game:recipes/grid/drystone.json) in modid:patches/resourceedit.json failed because supplied path /output/quantity is invalid: The json path /output/quantity was not found. No such element 'output' at the root path
(game version 1.21.4, mod version 1.1.0)
FritoKeso ok thx for the warn il try to check the json file n fix it
Nice mod but idk if you noticed that you can dupe some items like for example:
When you use a saw on wooden planks, you can recover the boards that were used, If you create blocks of wooden planks and then use the saw on those two blocks, you can duplicate the boards and each wooden planks block will give you 4 boards.
(Wooden planks are made with 4 boards).

I am posting this comment to warn you in case you do not want progress in your world to be destroyed, as it is a way of making things “easy.”
Dirty_Shisno yeah. also im trying to fix the red clay and some other stuff now and just update the mod and the page a bit (images too) might be slow atm
Does this affect the slate roof blocks? Would be amazing if it did
would be fun if you made a different mod that made crafting slabs, stairs, etc. less of a pain in the ass.
thx disputedname
gemerald
oh ok got it wont do that again anymore
you need to make sure that people know that in the game the mod id is infrastructureextension or better yet change the file name to infrastructure_extension_Easy_Building.zip because we had this mod it was the 1.0.1 version but you seem to have deleted it
Please if you see this do something or stop removing mod files please it makes it hard to find out that a mod has been removed from db and then be missing it on a server and be told a random name that isn't the mods actual name
Fastcaredoc
i would but those blocks are a special type of blocks so i won't be doing that cuz balance reason. as the mod is meant to be a fine line between VS and MC. also idk what youre trying to tell me in the rest of the comment just hit me up on discord in a week
Hello, I have a question, can you increase the amount of brick blocks you get when crafting the new ones in the beehive kiln, like the getting 8 blocks instead of 4 and also there is some cool black bricks (clinker) you get when having 3 doors open on the blue bricks but in vanilla you only get 2 instead of 4 can you also incries those to 8?
Thank you for this mod, it made my life easier for my builds
overall if you all have any balance suggestions do tell
Yo
Dirty_Shisno
well i had to balance it since I buffed the hay block made from grass. overall seems fair
That thatch change looking hot as hell! 😍
