Salty´s Radial Crafting

Crafting

Press CAPS LOCK (Key by default) to switch between item collect mode from auto to sneak. (optional)

Drop the necessary ingredients for a crafting recipe.

Hold B ( Radial Menu key by default).

Choose the recipe.

Press CAPS LOCK (by default) to switch between item collect mode from auto to sneak. So you can work with dropped items without auto collecting.

Or if you don't feel like doing it all the time you can set the dropped item scan radius inside the config json to set the max distance (in blocks) between you and the dropped items.

 

For recipes that requires tools, said tools needs to be in either the player hands or hotbar (backpack inventory does not count).

The tool takes damage as normal. If you have more than one, the one on the left takes damage.

 

For recipes that requires liquid countainers, said containers need to be on the player hands or toolbar too. (backpack inventory does not count).

Multi-Crafting & Cooldowns

Both the Bulk crafting and cooldown system works togheter:

To Multi-Craft:

Hold ctrl and left click to add +1 itemstack for the final craft.
Hold ctrl and right click to remove -1 itemstack from the final craft.
Hold shift and left click to add the maximum items you can craft with the available resources.
Hold shift and right click to go back to 1 itemstack.

watch the center tooltip

 

Then to confirm just left click the recipe:

Please read this carefully:

This will start the crafting and cooldown system.

Inside the cooldown you can't walk, open the radial menu or toggle collect mode. So watch out!

If the the crafting requires a tool and you're holding it in your main hand, a unique animation plays out!

Be careful, make sure every resource is available until it finishes crafting, or else you will be penalized with no recipe result, wasting resources.

Every recipe will take 1 second or more to craft.

Cooldown is calculated by ingredient quantity and 3 types of items:

[normal items] - 0.1 sec

[tools] - 0.3 sec

[liquid containers] - 0.5 sec

(All those values are configurable in the mod configs, but the default 1 second recipe cooldown is hardcoded and can't be changed.)

 

Example: You have a recipe that requires no tools or liquid containers but the amount of resources required is 12,

then it will take 1,2 seconds ([normal items] - 0.1 secs x 12) to craft every single batch of that recipe.

 

Example 2: If the recipe requires 8 resources instead it would take 0.8 seconds, but the cooldown defaults it to 1 second.

 

Example 3: But if a recipe requires a hammer, an axe and a chisel, and 6 more resources then its 0.9 sec + 0.6 secs, 1.5 seconds for each batch produced.

(You can disable the cooldown system in the mod configs setting the variable instant to true)

 

If you're feeling lost check the help tooltip:

 

 

Info

Do you need a table to use the radial menu?

No it was only for showing off.

Do you need the handbook open?

No, it’s only to demonstrate the mod implications. It feels more natural to look up the resources required for a recipe and simply drop them in the world, rather than arranging them in the grid.

Will This work with modded/edited recipes?

Yes, the mod reads directly the json recipes.

For example, if using Tools Require Rope the radial menu will only prompt you with a tool recipe if theres ropes dropped with the other ingredients.

But please let me know if you find any recipe modded or vanilla that doesn't work.

Will This work with liquid containers and liquid % recipes?

Yes, the mod reads directly the json recipes.

For example creating dough needs one liter water from a liquid container. The mod will translate that one liter accordingly to the container after the crafting process.

But the soaked bandage only uses 0.2 liters of Aqua Vitae, wich is also correctly translated to the container after the crafting process.

Can I translate this?

Yes!! There is a lang file for every text entry of the mod.

Roadmap

(and notes to self)

• Add liquid/tools recipes compatibility.
• Faint circle low opacity for the radial menu to better contrast with certain backgrounds. (I decided to go with low gamma)
• Stop time opening the radial menu. (discarded)
• Make it toggable.
• Menu animation.
• Add multi crafting sytem, using a combination of holding keys.
• Add tooltip for resources.
• Add multiplayer compatibility.
• Add cooldowns
• Add animations
• Add particle effects
• Add Sounds: (For last, I want specific sounds for specific material types and specific tools used in a recipe)
