Upgradeable Chest

Description
upgrade your chest with boards.

Larger content, same space.




Woddie and Lucy rate this 5 stars.



Q&A

How Can I Upgrade?
1. Put at least 1 upgrade material in all the outermost slots.
2. Close the container.

Degrade:
1. Clear your chest
2. Put 1 hammer into the chest
3. Close the container
4. It will consume 5 uses, trade for half of the upgrading material


How Large Can The Chest Be?
Here is few options allow you to choose how many times it could update. How large? Check the last option! It is infinite!
in fact not but you may never reach the upper limiteven you hit the limit, I can easily top up the limit. wanna give it a try?


Do The Mod Break The Balance?
Certainly not.
A normal chest has 9 slots and cost 3 boards. i.e. 3 slots for each boards

With this mod,
The 5x5 chest cost a total 11 boards with a total 25 slots, i.e. 25 / 11 = 2.2 slots per boards.
The 7x7 chest cost a total 27 boards with a total 49 slots, i.e. 49 / 27 = 1.8 slots per boards.

That means for each upgrade, you have to trade more boards for less slots.


Why there is no option under UI setting?
It is not able to adjust UI setting in worldgen menu. You must visit mod screen in main menu for setting.
ie. Main Menu → Mods → Server Mods → Upgradable Chest

I hope UI setting could could be set by each client. All client should follow the setting from server host if I do not make it a client option. For example, if the server host turn the "Ice Box Leftward", all clients are forced on even they don't want to. That's why I make them a client option which each client follow their own setting than server's setting. Making it a client option will hide it from worldgen menu. You can only tune the options from main menu.


Why I cannot upgrade the chest?
Test if it works with no other mods, and with default config. option of the mod.
Here are some useful console commands for your test:
spawn a new chest
c_spawn("treasurechest")
give you 10 boards
c_give("boards", 10)
upgrade the nearest chest to 7x7
c_selectnear("treasurechest") c_sel().components.chestupgrade:SetChestLv(7)

If it fails, comment below. Otherwise, check the following Q&A


Is the mod conflict with other mods? How do I know which mod it is?
If you fail to upgrade the container, check to see if you install these mods.
Here are some kind of mods that may not compat with this mod:
1. ALL mods that enlarge chest storage
2. SOME of the mods that add new containers to the game
3. SOME mods that add a new items which can hold/ store/ trade/ delete things in one of its slots




What is needed in other container?
After version 4.0, you can upgrade 4 more containers, i.e. ice box, salt box, dragonfly chest, fish box.
Here are the materials needed:

Ice Box
1 gears in each top-most slots, 1 cut stone in each other outermost slots
Salt Box
1 salt crystal in each outermost slots, and 1 blue gem in the center-most slot
Dragonfly Chest
1 boards in each outermost slots
Fish Box
1 rope in each outermost slots

Row/Column Upgrading Mode
A new upgrading mode is added in version 7.0. Turn it on in Other Functions: Upgrade Mode
Idea From: ♛ EmuLegs
Mode
Detail
normal mode
The mode what we are using. Refer to the above for more info.
expensive mode
A more expensive and complicated mode. Put the upgrading items to all the right-most slots will extend horizontally. Put them to all the bottom-most slots will extend vertically. The items are listed below
complex mode
Turn both of the above on.
OTHER NEW MODE
Welcome to command below if you want your cool idea installed. I will implant them to the mode if I like the idea.

Ice Box
1 gears in first position of the targeted slots, 1 cut stone in each other targeted slots
Salt Box
1 blue gem in first position of the targeted slot, 1 salt crystal in each other targeted slots
Dragonfly Chest
1 boards in each targeted slots
Fish Box
1 rope in each targeted slots

Pageable Upgrade
You may upgrade the chest to make it "pageable". The feature has yet finalized. Welcome to discuss below.
The idea is from mod Pageable containers by Potter_Lee.
*****Remind: This mod is supposed not compatible with his mod. You may test and tell me if they can work together.

After you have upgraded the container to the MAX levels. Put the upgrading items to ALL the slots in FIRST page.
The upgrading items are the most-common-used upgrade item for its normal upgrade. ie. 1 cut stone for all slots in first page, NO gears is needed.

Backpack Upgrade
More or less the same as pageable upgrade. Put the items into first n slots and unequip the backpack. Where n equal to the total number of slots of the non-upgraded backpack. Up to 3 pages
pack
item
slot
Backpack
rope
8
Insulated Pack
electrical doodad
8
Spice Pack
nitre
6
Piggyback
pig skin
12
Krampus Sack
rope
14

*Special: Krampus Sack is allowed to upgrade 4 extra pages if waxpaper is used.




Update Log:
  • Add Config: Magician's Container(default on)

    fix:
  • unable to reach the max lv for some container
  • the flip page button is not fit to some of the backpack slots

[@litttle_match] 我测试下来没发现这个问题,你检查一下是否还有其他mod影响了结果,或者是否这个mod的一些设置改动造成问题了。我只测试了预设设置,请告诉我哪些设置可能造成问题

[@Rey] 1 living log to each outermost slots. Make sure you turn the config on, which is "disabled" by default

[@tan.233] [@Noraly] From my test, I upgrade them as normal. Check in a new world, whether problem still exist when you disable other mods. Tell me what mods that make backpacks fail to upgrade. Also check if mod configs with non-default-setting in "Upgradeable Chest" affect the results.

I get errors whenever I upgrade a backpack and try to wear it :(
tan.233 4 Sep @ 4:51am 
Works well for the chests but I have added 8 doodle dad for the insulation pack (1 in each slot) so many times and it doesn't work after closing and reopening and even dropping and re collecting the insulation pack. I tried to play with the numbers and add 7 instead of 8 then 6 etc but doesn't work.
Can you help please? Thanks a lot

一个模组间的兼容bug,不知道能不能修,本模组开启了拆除返还材料,同时安装了更多弹性空间容器(More Infinite Container)Mod,使用弹性空间升级升级扩容的冰箱时,冰箱容量不会减小,但会掉落所有升级用的石砖

背包在开启创建默认满级的情况下,背包容量没变

问题解决了,主要是由于服务器设置和房主创建房间时的设置不一致导致冲突了
BLUE布鲁 24 Aug @ 11:19am 
开了模组,但不论怎么摆放,背包和箱子都无法进行升级,在创建房间和主菜单界面都进行了设置,都无法正常显示。不清楚是不是由于模组冲突?我开启了箱子前小木牌和防卡两招模组,但半年前还是能够正常扩建箱子的呀。
