Try pasting that over Nolan's original code and everything should work. I did some limited testing.

This is amazing. Thank you so much. Those annotations are so great! I really appreciate you taking the time to do this.

Sorry for resurrecting this old thread, but using the tips provided by tommysticks and nolanri, I was able to fix the bag equipping issue. Thank you both!

 

The other annoying issue persists: items in your equipped bag are lost if it is used in the crafting process. I understand this issue also existed in Hydrocraft, so I assumed it couldn't be fixed. Is this still true? Any way to get around it other than warning users to empty their bags before crafting?

After more testing, and after specifying that the required recipe items are destroyed during the crafting, the problem only occurs when you right click an equipped bag and use that to start the crafting process. If you craft through the dedicated crafting menu, it will never use an equipped bag, nor will it count towards the recipe requirements.

Hello everyone.

 

A mod I wrote allows players to sew upgraded hiking bags using existing hiking bags. I've found a bug where if one of the hiking bags used to make the upgraded version is equipped on the player's back, the resulting backpack is unequipped, and the player no longer has an option to equip anything on his/her back, as if the original bag is still equipped. There are no options to unequip, as the game thinks nothing is equipped.  The resulting bag (and any others) can only be equipped as primary and secondary. The only solution is starting a new game.  I've just tested again, and this issue does not occur when the bag is equipped as primary and secondary, only when it is equipped on the player's back.

 

Here is the code I used for the upgraded bag, and for creating the recipe:

item SmallUpgradedHikingBag
        {
            WeightReduction    =    85,
            Weight    =    0.6,
            Type    =    Container,
            Capacity    =    27,
            DisplayName    =    Small Upgraded Hiking Bag,
            Icon    =    SmallUpgradedHikingBag,
            CanBeEquipped = Back,
            OpenSound   =   PZ_OpenBag,
            CloseSound   =   PZ_CloseBag,
            PutInSound   =   PZ_PutInBag,
        }

recipe Make Small Upgraded Hiking Bag
        {
            keep Needle,
            keep Scissors,
            Thread=2,
            NormalHikingBag=2,
            Result:SmallUpgradedHikingBag,
            Time:250.0
        }

 

Has anyone seen or been able to fix this? What am I missing? Sorry if this has already been covered. I've tried searching but couldn't find anything related.

 

Thanks in advance!

Watermelon has a bug where DaysFresh is greater than DaysTotallyRotten.   I haven't seen other problems, although in earlier versions there were bugs with food age;  I don't know if you're seeing problems with an old savefile or a new one.

I've seen this happen with Fish Filet. It's fresh in the fridge and rotten when I take it out. Not sure if it's related to it being an old save or not.
