Exert from config file = "pickup-speed: 1 # from 0 to 10"

Ok, which is the fast end, 0 or 10? Anyone know.

💬 Shade_Guye, Mar 10th at 11:53 AM

Would this mod also help with picking up items that are falling? Like when you break a floor block next to you with air under it, and it normally falls down instead of going to your obviously in-range inventory.

 

💬 Pervy_Sage, Mar 8th at 9:57 PM

Maltiez Could also make an option of the bracelet slot if you like.

💬 Pervy_Sage, Mar 8th at 9:45 PM

Maltiez "I misspelled "itemmagnet" in file path as "itemmganet" and havn't noticed, so config lib just skipped it" Oh man tell me about it! I was playing a text online game back in the days of AOL and, at a critical point, typed in a series of numbers wrong that I should have copy and pasted. Wasted SOOOO much effort, and I still haven't learned my lesson.

Thanks for the great mod! :D

💬 CKitt, Mar 8th at 9:34 PM

1.1.2 should be good to go, then? Excellent news, I'll give it a try!

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Mar 8th at 8:41 PM

CKitt

Should be fixed (I misspelled "itemmagnet" in file path as "itemmganet" and havn't noticed, so config lib just skipped it).

💬 CKitt, Mar 8th at 8:29 PM

I look forward to trying this mod out once it's up and running fully! It sounds extremely useful.

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Mar 8th at 7:54 PM

Ok, let me properly debug it. I will refactor this mod at some point, because it was just a proof of concept.

Sorry for this release, I was busy with updating Crossbows and didn't pay enough attention and take enough time to properly test this release.

💬 Pervy_Sage, Mar 8th at 5:48 PM

Maltiez Thanks for the fix, there's still an issue with the emblem. The original necklace is working as expected, it pulls items in at the adjusted range. However the emblem doesn't seem to adjust with the config and only works at 8 blocks.

💬 Pervy_Sage, Mar 8th at 5:36 PM

Khana No gui pops up when you tap P while in game?

💬 Khana, Mar 8th at 3:40 PM

@Maltiez nope. that config is not there. and there is no gui pops up with mod settings. Oo

 

 

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Mar 8th at 10:59 AM

Khana

itemmagnet.yaml in VintagestoryData/ModConfig. You also should be able to just used gui (button in escape menu: Mods Settings).

💬 Khana, Mar 8th at 10:41 AM

 cant find the config file at all. i have config lib and the newest update. jst cant seem to find it. Oo

 

 

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Mar 8th at 10:29 AM

Pervy_Sage

fixed

💬 Pervy_Sage, Mar 8th at 9:15 AM

Maltiez I'm having an issue with the config changing the distance again. This time I saved it and logged out, trying several different options. No, matter what I do it only works within 8 blocks. Even changing the range lower than 8 does nothing. It still picks up at the default. Saved and restarted each testing.

💬 Pervy_Sage, Mar 8th at 8:32 AM

@Maltiez WOOT! Thank you! 😍

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Mar 8th at 6:54 AM

Pervy_Sage

Done, added emblem version that can be crafted from neckless and back.

💬 Pervy_Sage, Mar 7th at 6:51 PM

Woot! You're awesome. 🤩

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Mar 7th at 6:50 AM

Pervy_Sage

I can make different versions and add an option to config, so yeah, I'll look into it

💬 Pervy_Sage, Mar 7th at 6:21 AM

Maltiez How about making an item magnet that goes in the emblem slot instead of the neck. There's quite a few mods that use the necklace slot. But I've yet to see any that use emblem.

💬 Pervy_Sage, Feb 14th at 3:00 PM

Maltiez I have to admit I didn't try it by itself and the dependancy in a test world but yes I reloaded it at least twice. I tried 2 or 3 combinations and only the old file and the old dependancy worked. I'll try new both now.

Edit: I tested it with the dependancies it needed. And had to take mob radar to see how far away the arrow actually was. It worked as expected. I'll try it in my actual playthrough now and see if it was having a conflict.

Edit: All working. Thank you.

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Feb 14th at 8:25 AM

Pervy_Sage

Have you reloaded world (leaving world and entering it again) after changing values and pressing 'Save'?

💬 Pervy_Sage, Feb 14th at 6:01 AM

The update to the dependancy keeps the range on the item magnet from being adjusted from the default. In the window when you press P. You can adjust the range but it doesn't actually increase it.

💬 ate0ate, Feb 6th at 9:11 AM

Hey, this is perfect! Something like this will prove quite useful in VS. Love that its tied to a necklace for a proper degree of immersion as well. It's a nice touch. Thank you for your work!

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Feb 5th at 10:27 AM

sdkenny

Make sure you have the latest version of config lib on your server (and ImGui), this problem with weird mod-manager bug should be solved in latest versions.

💬 sdkenny, Feb 5th at 12:27 AM

Hello, when I add this mod to my server along with both dependencies, when I try to connect to the server, it says 'missing 0 mods' and never downloads anything more. When I remove this mod, the problem goes away, even if I leave the two dependencies.

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Jan 8th at 8:07 PM

Buggi

nvm, it does not matter, I already lost interest in discussing all this stuff

💬 Buggi, Jan 8th at 7:26 PM

Discord hasn't notified me of any mentions of DM's.  What server and channel did you ping me?

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Jan 5th at 10:09 PM

Buggi

Still waiting for your response in discord, btw.

I'm not trying to satisfy everyone, and this request by MiningTcup is out of scope of this mod in its current state. There is another mod planned that will solve this problem in another way.

💬 Buggi, Jan 5th at 9:44 PM

LMAO! See Maltiez, you can never satisfy everyone.

💬 MiningTcup, Jan 2nd at 12:48 AM

Both. I'd like it to just be possible to get stuff from further away, and I don't really want to have to craft or wear a necklace. I also don't personally use mods that add new items, blocks, or entities, only ones that modify existing functions, in case of updates.

💬 RikeiR, Jan 1st at 12:07 PM

Everything went well.
Thank you so much.

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Jan 1st at 12:06 PM

MiningTcup

Is it a problem with neckless (so you might want to wear another neckless or dont want it to be displayed on player model) or with recipe cost?

💬 MiningTcup, Jan 1st at 12:17 AM

Can you make a version that doesn't require a necklace but isn't as powerful?

💬 Buggi, Dec 31st 2023 at 9:28 PM

Superfluous redundancy, just what we needed. I still have no idea why people are so against having things in a mod they don't want. Just don't make the things you don't want. I put many hours into the magnet I made because I had no code to refer to. Now all that work is forgotten.

 

Many Minecraft mods are loaded with things people don't use, I didn't think it was that big of an issue.

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Dec 31st 2023 at 12:27 PM

RikeiR

Have you pressed save button at the top of the window and reentered the world?

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Dec 31st 2023 at 9:13 AM

RikeiR

Next time please send via discord, I had to use vpn with a Japan server and guess what to click to download by using my general knowledge of such resources' layout.

💬 RikeiR, Dec 30th 2023 at 10:11 PM

Great job!

YAY!

 

💬 MaltiezAuthor, Dec 30th 2023 at 6:20 PM

Hallowedsoul08

Done

💬 Hallowedsoul08, Dec 30th 2023 at 5:20 PM

I am patiently waiting for a 1.18 port. I've been looking for a mod like this for a while that don't come with other unnessessary things.
