Looks promising. You're missing recipes for a handful of items though.

[Extex]

Some items aren't craftable their only obtainable as a reward in the stocking

[Nathan.S]

Does that include the sugar? because it's needed to crate a few things, but has no craft for itself.

[Extex]

Yes it's also a reward
Look at the end of init.lua

[Nathan.S]

Okay, will check that out and see about recording a video today or tomorrow. :)

Okay, this time I think I found an actual bug. I can right click on the stocking as much as I want after it's filled and I keep adding the items to my inventory. Also if my active item in the hotbar is the same as what is in the stocking it won't add anything, or if the hotbar slot is empty, it will not get filled. Looking at the code it doesn't look like the inventory of the stocking is ever cleared.
This code snippet seems to fix the problem. I don't know what the leftover locals were for, and removing them and calling playerinv:add_item seemed to work just fine.

Code: Select all

		elseif not inv:is_empty("main") then --stocking has something in it.
			local item1 = inv:get_stack("main", 1)
			local item2 = inv:get_stack("main", 2)
			local item3 = inv:get_stack("main", 3)
            playerinv:add_item("main", item1)
            playerinv:add_item("main", item2)
            playerinv:add_item("main", item3)
            inv:set_stack("main", 1 ,'')
            inv:set_stack("main", 2 ,'')
            inv:set_stack("main", 3 ,'')
			timer:start(5400)

This code doesn't check if the player inventory is full, but neither did the original. If the player inventory is full the items are lost and the clock is still restarted. There is a way to check if the items will fit in inventory, and if they don't they could either be dropped in world, or you could opt to not set the inventory empty. However if a player had two empty slots they could keep right clicking on the stocking and fill those two slots to 99 items because the stocking keeps giving items.

[Extex]

Oh...
I'll look into it

[Extex]

Ok fixed.
Sorry for the long delay
Been busy...

New version, if I have mesecons, etc but it happens to not be loaded yet, will throw this error. I had to make it a dependency to run it. Nice update, though. Thanks for sharing it.

Should be fixed in the newest update!
