Yeah I believe you are right. Even with the continued version the bills tab only shows none.

I also suspect a mod conflict.

update: Tried loading through all ten of my saves again with the continued version. Thankfully one of the older saves worked! This save was just before the second drill was built. If that matters?

It only happened after I installed this, built the drill, then switched to using the new version. Im really not sure why or how it happened. I expected for the drill to either disappear or work fine. Instead I can no longer load that world because the drill is there. Even if I just try to load just this. Really makes no sense.

I highly doubt that it's caused by this mod but even if, you should contact the author who continued this mod instead. I also highly advise you to include a log file because otherwise this will just be considered a false report.

So I installed this mod, realized it could not be used via no options in game, tried to remove it then installed the fixed version. Now my save file wont load.

I asked Mlie to continue my mod. The newer versions can from now on be found here:

Pawns will not even interact with the drill either. When you click on it it shows no bills when you select a pawn and try to get them to interact with it it does nothing

Since the last update I am unable to get the drill to work. I have changed load order, deleted all my bills and reset them up, and uninstalled and reinstalled the game. One other thing is that no matter what I do to the steel cost it stays the same after saving and open and closing. Not sure if the update to change the steel caused it or what but this is broke for me. Doesn't work = no bills show up to drill for.

Hilarious, going to roleplay crashlanding on a booze planet and constantly drill for booze.

@Birb: I added it for you. You can now configure the drill's steel cost.

I uploaded a new version that automatically deletes configured drillables that no longer exist and also a few GUI bugfixes. Loading a savegame that is drilling a non-existing drillable will cause a one-time error that can be safely ignored.

@Emelio: Yes because drilling counts as mining.
@Raven & @Wolf Fang: Should be fixed now. Please update the mod to the latest version. However, if you still get such an error, please let me know.

When I try to open the mod settings page for this mode I got the following message
An error occurred while displaying the mods settings page:

Should I set my pawns to mining to get them to use the drill?

I'm having similar issue with the mod settings not showing all the drillables I add, but if you go to remove drillables in the settings it shows all of them. The actual drill shows all I've added, though.

It only showing 14 drillables is a bug from the v1.3 conversion. I uploaded a new version that fixes this.

@Birb: Perhaps in the future I'll add it but no promises.

Ah yes, finally a mod that lets you drill beer and simple meals

It might be nice to edit the cost of the drill itself. 2000 steel is quite a lot (last price I knew)

Thanks, I delete my setting and it work, I can reset my drillable list again.
But there is another problem, i can only see 14 item, I add 30 item to drill and I can see them all in 1.2.
Anyone had the same problem?

I tried Vanilla + all DLC + Harmony + HugsLib + Planetary Drill and it works for me.

I also highly doubt that there's an issue with/between HugsLib and my mod. Did you try starting a new game or deleting your mod settings?

I move out all my mods and try one by one, it seems have problem with hugsLib.

Thank you very much!

I shall give you the DLC.

@Malleator: Even my old existing savegames work in 1.3 with the drill (including the menu, changing drillables, etc.) but note that I don't have the expansion.

I would require an error log and perhaps your savegame as well but I do suspect that you have an issue with another mod. Perhaps you could try the basic trouble shooting guide: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2046475282

Unfortunately, I still can't select anything for it to mine or open the mod settings menu. I've checked and it updated to the latest version from what I can tell.

@Squirting Elephant Thank you!

yay

Update for version 1.3 is here.

Thank you! I'm more than happy to wait, so don't feel the need to rush! :D

Hi, yes I will but not right now. I'm busy irl and I have to check what they changed in version 1.3 because all my mods that use mod-menus broke. The mods usually still work for people who upgrade my mods from v1.2 as long as you don't open it's mod menu but for other people these mods are currently broken. I hope to have some time soon.

Hi there, I really like this mod! It's modularity is unlike any other similar mod. Will you be updating it to 1.3?

If you allow a ressource from a mod to be mined in the mod config you need to take out the ressource from the list if you disable the mod.
If you do not do that planetary drill will have no bill because of an error pop up saying it can't find the missing ressource.

To those who contact me on Discord (I can't send a PM back to you there because we don't share a common server) and those that send friend requests only to send me a huge error report (that clearly shows a mod conflict):

TLDR solution: disable all other mods, delete your mods settings, start a new game and you'll see, it'll suddenly work.

Also, please don't think that a mod is properly coded or even if it is, doesn't cause mod conflicts just because it has over 100k downloads. Sometimes after a popular mod updated/released that causes conflicts, I get so many messages that aren't mine to solve.

@Apocalypse: May be a mod conflict. Try disabling all other mods in a new save and plop a drill down and test.

Cant dig any resourses, 0 problems in debug logs

[Unholy laughter]

Hi Basmyr. At this point, I have no intention of making a smaller drill.

@general124: Nice!

Hi Mr. Elephant, i want to ask for a smaller Drill. I love that thing, but a 1x1 would be glorious. maybe as a second building or as a additional mod?

Yup, it worked. Had to rebuild the drill though. I also disabled all but this mod, Core, Royalty, Harmony and HugsLib before attempting to reset the settings. Necessary for me since I couldn't open the mod settings before. I think I'll avoid adding mod resources to the bill from now on
Cheers

Yes, this can occur before loading a save-game if a resource that was configured in the PD settings is suddenly gone without first removing it. That's as I expect it. Please let us know if it works.

I'll try deleting the PD settings. This is happening before loading a save game, so if that doesn't work i'll try track down the mod that's interfering. Here's hoping I don't have too many that add Z in front of their variables

*TLDR comment of my other comments*

TLDR version with possible causes:
1. Another mod creator renamed/removed that stone resource (or you did).
2. A mod conlict. There are sooooooooooo many errors in that log file (not from my mod)...

TLDR solution:
Stop drilling, remove all PD bills, exit Rimworld and backup&delete the PD settings file and it could work.
Still doesn't work? Remove the other problematic mods.

It's also possible that the mod-creator of that resource renamed it or removed it from his/her mod without informing you and if you happened to be drilling that (or configured it in the settings) then it will now crash yes.

If that's the case, the easiest fix is to perhaps try to stop drilling, remove all drilling bills, save&exit Rimworld and delete the Planetary Settings file (make a backup first). Then configure your settings again.

I could perhaps add a check in the future to prevent this and remove it for you automatically but mmm... I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble to add so many checks for user errors and other mod creators mistakes everywhere. I already have some in place.

@general124: My mod even caught the error for you. It says: "Unable to find ThingDef: Z_StanStoneA. Please ensure that this def exists in the database and that the database was loaded before trying to locate this."

I assume you removed a mod or resource w/o removing it from the drill? This is 99% an user error or an error from another mod.

I'm having issues as well. It might not be compatible with saved games or a mod? Anyways, the mod options don't appear to load as I get an error when trying to access them.

I've the same problem as rrbrtgemn. Pasted the error log here: https://pastebin.com/raw/3uqpzuTS
When openning the dev log while trying to see the mod options, I've a couple of errors about being unable to find 2_StanStoneA if that helps
Cheers

Been using this mod for eons. Suddenly, it stops. Only error I get is a splash of errors when I try to load the settings IN-game.

Confession: I added your mod to a game in progress. It worked fabulously for everything else, even drilling other modded items! Thanks for confirming that the issue might be that, or having an incompatible mod :) This mod is superb for getting rock chunks that aren't available on my map!

I launched Rimworld 1.2 (with DLC) and both the mod menu and the drill itself work perfectly with ~150 mods in a new game. I then turned of all other mods and that also worked. I then quit the game, deleted the mod settings manually and then tried again, also works. No errors, and I got the amount of gold that I set in the mod settings. I did some other checks but all is fine.

I assume that you have either bad/incompatible mods or have some corrupt/old mod-settings file (just delete the mod settings file and restart Rimworld) or your savegame is bad.

Also bug reports like "says error with bunch of text" aren't helpful at all.

Trying to drill gold is broken - you can either drill 1 or something like -5493883, and trying to change any mod settings completely breaks gold, so even if you set the yield to just 1, nothing is mined.
