Im having difficulty using the backpack. When I try to open it inside my inventory, the backpack opens and then closes after a fraction of a second.

Off the top of my head I realize I never tested it with open inventory not pausing the game. Is that it?

Yeah, when I pause the game to open my inventory and access the backpack, it immediately closes itself (the backpack not the entire inventory). Hopefully it's an easy bug to fix, ive been longing for more invent space for quite awhile now.

Nicely written mods , well organized thread , Confidence in modding community +1 on my mind.

Keep up the great art

small tip of randomness - regarding the builder blocks mod , I think it could be a better idea to just 'toggle' a block's state into a builder block via a hotkey. (check if the item places any tile (placetile > 0) and then toggle its stack to 1 , max stack to 1 , consumable to false , and if an item with these 3 properties is found when you click , check if the default of that item has a stack bigger then one , and if so , convert it back to its old state , this system should be working for all tiles =x)

Does your portal mod work in multiplayer?

Ok, through a bit of testing ive deduced that the backpack does in fact work, but it performs a check to see if the last chest interacted with by the player is nearby (within roughly 5 tiles in any direction).

Edit: I believe it's a problem in the world.cs file, but dont hold me to that as I only skimmed through the code and there was a lot about chests and checking them.

Thank you, honestly I didnt like having to create so many items myself. I like your idea, more of a builder mode than item specific. I will look into it when I get a chance.
Thanks for the suggestion.

To be honest I have no idea, I havent played multi player at all. I would love to know if it does. If it doesnt I believe I just need to tell the server where the player moved to.

I think you are right. When the backpack chests are created they are placed off the map a little. I always play with autopause on, so that is likely why I never noticed the issue. I think I can just update the locations of the backpacks on player update to the players current location and that will fix it. I will try this out later today when I get a chance.

Thanks for the info. I'll give it a shot tonight if I get the chance to get on and see if it works correctly in MP. Props to the current portal mod for doing what it does, but this means I don't need a portal room, and I get 3 times as many points.

UPDATE:
I tried this out the portals on multiplayer and they don't work. I can place them, but their functionality is gone, they are not consumed from inventory on place, and they do not drop anything when broken.

After digging through the code, the issue with the backpacks closing when autopause is not on, is due to chests closing if the tile is not active or the player is farther than ~5 tiles away.
The solution that I have implemented has one side effect. If you are not within range of an active tile, the open chest sound is played over and over until you are.
If anyone else has an idea about how to get around this please let me know.

The mod has been updated. In addition I am now including a version file in the zip's.

Liquid Fun is MP compatible! It might be a good idea to put something in the descriptions if they are MP compatible or not. I'll gladly test when I can.

Excellent suggestion, I will start noting above when they have been tested for multi player.

Thanks for testing it. I will look into what needs to be done to fix it.

some possible solutions include...
-> mimicing the effects of 'opening a chest' , where the chest location is indeed 'close' to you. (and updating the chest position as long as one of the latter chests are open)
(recommended) -> making a custom tile interface to support the latter chests.
I personally prefer the custom tile interfaces you can create in tConfig , such as the cheat menu , satchels and so on.
making one is not hard at all , and they can be easily updated of position when required.
you can also name them for easy checks and so on.

To be more bluntly specific why I support them , is because I made a 'satchel' item , which essentially is exactly the same as the chest , just without the 'sort' buttons , and is keeping data within the item.

edit: you shouldn't double post , you can edit a post and it will notifies people.

The game actually inspects player.chest, chestX and chestY and the tile they describe during Terraria.Player.UpdatePlayer(int). The coordinates on the chest itself do not appear to be used for checking the closeness of the player to said tile, but the referenced tile must be active and within range. My solution was to find any active tile that would fulfill the requirements and set chestX and chestY to its location. If a tile is not found then the players coordinates are used and the main terraria code attempts to close the chest.

At one point I looked at the interface options of tConfig but was not able to get one to open through code and not just when the player activates a tile. I didnt spend that much time on this really, so I will revisit it when I can.

I apologize for the double posting. I will be sure to not do it again.

Band of Regeneration A+ works fine in MP. Are you planning on making a Starpower version? I could put that together if you want.

What is the Mech toolbelt supposed to do?

I dont use spells that often so I hadnt thought of a starpower version but it makes sense and would be easy enough. If you make it I will add a link to yours next to its brother or post it and credit you or I could make it, your choice. I mentioned that I thought about doing it with shackles, but didnt because they are much more readily available and would be to op, agree / disagree? If people want it though, it can be done.

The mod looks for an equipped Accessory marked as Mech and shows wires accordingly. In addition the toolbelt is now marked as Mech.

Well, it looks like manaIncrease doesn't do anything, and there isn't a regenMana option in the Item Class, so I guess modding the starpower band is pointless. I tried it out, got them to successfully craft and everything, but they unfortunately don't do anything. I take it I'll have to write something in C# to get this to work.

just add an Effects method to the item , and add something to player.manaRegen.

an example

Code:

public void Effects(Player P)
{
      P.manaRegen+=2;
}

not hard.

Thanks man. This is my first run at doing anything mod related. I just got tConfig decompiled successfully and am going through things.

Awesome, here it is!
