Can you make another version, for the latest update?

Please?

That way it won't break anyone's saves, and those new to the game can also enjoy it.

Thank you for your awnser !

This for Build 40 Hydrocraft. For the sake of not causing compatibility issues or general headaches for existing games, this mod will likely stay as a Build 40 mod with a new mod made for Build 41 down the line.

Hello Wedge ! Is this mod suitable for b41 hydrocraft ? Thanks !
Wedge McCloud  [author] 20 Nov, 2021 @ 7:00pm 
So far I'm not seeing anything out of the ordinary with those items. I've spawned them in a few different saves and they have the correct values as in the Hydrocraft files (Hand Dolly: Weight 7/Capacity 170, Pallet Truck: Weight 15/Capacity 190, 100% Weight Reduction for both).

I don't know what may account for a difference with just those items (since something like the Organized trait would noticeably affect everything). I'll keep an eye on things.

Specifically Hand Dollies and Pallet Trucks.
There's every chance it's a mod conflict elsewhere which has gone unnoticed, especially if you haven't changed anything
Wedge McCloud  [author] 19 Nov, 2021 @ 5:51am 
Give me an idea of which items that may be. I haven't noticed any capacities out of the norm and I haven't changed any item capacities (they are a property that can only affect newly spawned items, so I don't want to mess with that) so this mod shouldn't be interacting with that. There's been changes to Hydrocraft since I last played though so I have to be careful there aren't any kinds of odd conflicts or interactions.

If you guys are still having this issue, the server host needs to delete the steamapps folder and let it regenerate, all players should unsubscribe from the mod, then restart steam and resubscribe.

Anyway, the real reason i'm here is that the capacity of some hydrocraft items seem to have dropped since the update. Nothing else has been changed on the server for a couple of weeks except the update to this mod
<:TyT_i_TaM:> 15 Nov, 2021 @ 9:40pm 
yes, this is how the old version of the mod is on the server and the new version in the workshop and therefore gives an error
Wedge McCloud  [author] 15 Nov, 2021 @ 9:28pm 
The update likely did cause it to differ, but it should be updating itself automatically as it's being handled by the Workshop subscription. I'm currently trying to ascertain if there's a Workshop issue or an issue with the mod itself. It seems the game is updating the client/player copy of the mod but not the server's copy (somehow).
<:TyT_i_TaM:> 15 Nov, 2021 @ 8:19pm 
Thanks for the quick response,
if I correctly understood the cause of the error, then this mod has been updated and now its version differs from the one on the server
Wedge McCloud  [author] 15 Nov, 2021 @ 3:26pm 
I'm afraid I can't be sure what your comment is trying to say, but if you are getting a "workshop item version is different from the server's" error with this particular mod, I'm just as stumped as you are.

There was a minor bug introduced while I was gone due to a small change in Hydrocraft that I made a minor update to address and had this same error myself later when hosting a multiplayer game - meaning I (the server AND client) failed to match with my own mods!

It appears to be an issue somewhere with Steam (maybe a manifest file?) but that's based on old google results). I'm still trying to figure what may have happened as I had to unsubscribe my mods and fully reinstall my game before it resolved. I cannot tell the cause for sure yet.

The only thing I can suspect at the moment is it might be an issue with having used "More Mod Tags" at some point. I'm looking into it and open to anyone with insight on this error (especially when connecting to one's own hosted game).

after the update stopped logging into the M700 server PVE swears at this particular mod what to do? (writing through a translator)

Last time I've smelted iron I was doing it very similar to your method cause I didn't have an idea how to speed up recovering process and was impatient totally. Always few days screwed after smelting 2-3 pieces of iron. Blacksmith apron is still out of 99% of peoples reach.
However I've mentioned it to Hasi but he was totally into something else that he probably forgot to do something about it. Maybe it's time to refresh his memory :D Same problem occured with smoker. According to survival methods, smoker is the easiest way to preserve food in long therm.
Holding smoked meat in right temperature can preserve it for 3 months, even longer sometimes if its dry enough (smoked beef). The recipe of crafting a smoker in this game comparing to real life is OMG difficult.

I actually hadn't thought of it (I've not played with Hydrocraft in a while as I've been tinkering with things on Build 41) but I may see what I can do. Avoiding burns entirely may require overriding part of how Hydrocraft does it as it happens in the item use script, so it may be tricky to implement, but I'll look into it. At the very least, I may see if I can move items to 100% burn protection.

Either way, it would be good to avoid using my old strategy: lots of painkillers and smelting even after I've gotten burned everywhere because a burn in the same place essentially just reset the recovery timer. (No idea if this is at all still the case.)
Michigan Star 12 Oct, 2021 @ 2:52pm 
Nice, i like those changes. Have U considered to add something to remove random burning effect after using smelter? Even with gloves and welding mask i still get burned. Always loved that part of the game and this really sucks because of those burns. Few days lost every time for healing and then getting back to smelting again... just to get burned. Even with firesuit from fire dept.
And blacksmith apron is just too complex to build to be fair for now.
OG_OsManCo 3 Oct, 2021 @ 7:30pm 
thank you. and now I see that lol.
Wedge McCloud  [author] 30 Sep, 2021 @ 2:29pm 
@OG_OsManCo Since this mod tweaks it, you can see what Hydrocraft is in the Required Items on the side. It's a large mod (that essentially includes several older mods into itself) that adds a lot more items for added flavor, variety, and mechanics. A lot of it covering parts of the game not implemented yet or not given a lot of detail. Note, this is for Build 40, the current release version of the game, not the current beta Build 41.
tilarium 29 Sep, 2021 @ 1:38pm 
Did you try to... oh I don't know... search the workshop or google "project zomboid hydrocraft" or anything like that because both give you info you're looking for.
OG_OsManCo 29 Sep, 2021 @ 12:42pm 
Can someone please tell me what this ""Hydro Craft"" is all about???? I see the name everywhere. But I cant find what mod they are actually talking about?
cocopuffs 1 Sep, 2021 @ 9:56pm 
Ok thanks Wedge!
Wedge McCloud  [author] 23 Aug, 2021 @ 12:18am 
This was just a set of personal changes, so it was not needed but as far as I know all the tweaks are still applicable. But I'm actually going to need to check that to be sure. As far as I know the tweaks were not added (I was informed of the first tweak I made that was), but this is made for Build 40 Hydro and I've last played Beta (Build 41), so I have to freshly examine what may be needed. There are also a number of bugs I need to fix, so I'll probably make a small update soon.
cocopuffs 22 Aug, 2021 @ 4:17pm 
is this still necessary for the latest hydrocraft? since it was updated over 2 years ago, did they already add these tweaks to the main hydrocraft base mod
Mumm 10 Mar, 2021 @ 4:36pm 
Hey im already 3 months into my server and just now installed this mod in order to craft weldingrods. does anyone know how to get the recipe for crafting welding rods or how do i craft them ?

Would appreciate some help if possible :)
DarkSlayerEX 13 Nov, 2020 @ 7:56am 
Thanks again for keeping my original mod up to date with your successor though. Modding for PZ burnt me out hard those years ago.

I'm honestly glad the item tweaker's been stable all this time..
tilarium 13 Nov, 2020 @ 6:29am 
Anyone know if this is working with the B41 version that David Hasihoff is working on?
Wedge McCloud  [author] 13 Nov, 2020 @ 4:55am 
Holy crap, those are some majorly botched values! Thanks for pointing those out. I'll try to get an update fixing them up soon.
DarkSlayerEX 12 Nov, 2020 @ 8:45am 
I just wanted to point out your magazine weight script is mistweaked, as well as the battery packs.
TurtleShroom 7 Nov, 2020 @ 2:02pm 
Hey dude! I fixed your Mod!

All you have to do is delete the entire LUA Folder, leaving only the Scripts and Textures folder.
TurtleShroom 15 Aug, 2020 @ 1:55pm 
Dang. Well, I can wait, then.
Wedge McCloud  [author] 13 Aug, 2020 @ 5:57pm 
Not currently, no. My mods are essentially on hiatus until Build 41 is released for multiplayer. There's so many new items in the base game and some changes to how names are displayed/changed that the mods need to be rewritten specifically for 41 and I'm going to work on and release for Build 41 when multiplayer hits, as more players will be likely to have migrated to it by then.
TurtleShroom 13 Aug, 2020 @ 11:52am 
Does this version work with the new edition of Hydro Craft?
Panzerwulfen 10 Apr, 2019 @ 1:24am 
Clean Plastic Bottles: Never understood the inability to pour water into them.
Wraith analyst 12 Jan, 2019 @ 2:08am 
is this mod working ok ? just wanna ask before use this mod.
Pure Fox 5 Nov, 2018 @ 5:52pm 
Hey wedge, love the mod, but can you tune down the disinfectant? I really can't see why the disinfectant should have 50 uses, considering disinfectant is not that rare even with the least amount of loot spawn.
TurtleShroom 20 Sep, 2018 @ 11:43am 
You, sir, are doing God's work. I have several suggestions for you.

1. Everything that uses a Wooden Bucket should also work with a Plastic Bucket.
2. You should make a Dissection Table using Metal Bars or Metal Pipes instead of using Steel Rods.
HelloThisIsMark 15 Oct, 2017 @ 5:58am 
pwned i guess?
Hydromancerx 12 Oct, 2017 @ 11:25pm 
Actually I am just going to add these 3 recipie to the the Hydrocraft Mod.
Hydromancerx 12 Oct, 2017 @ 12:59pm 
You need to list Hydrocraft mod as required.
