Oh, really? Huh, I didn't know that lol. Your flint starter has been immensely helpful however, so thanks for that.

@OxTailSafu The Magnesium Firestarter was actually already in the game when I made the Flint variant. The reason in it being Flint instead of Magnesium is that Flint is a more common and primitive material to work with. It also fits in thematically with the new Knapping skill which works with Stone and Flint.
As far as I know there isn't a way to obtain raw Magnesium, perhaps in the future this will be possible though

Nice mod. Will be essential for all my playthroughs. Hope to see more good updates.

With the magnesium firestarter now being a thing ingame, do you think it'd be possible to add a recipe to craft it in order to replace the flint firestarter you've made?

https://pzwiki.net/wiki/Magnesium_Firestarter

@killjoy it is actually in the base game, it's called a Notched Plank and it can be made from a Log, Plank, or Large Branch and a tool such as a Hand-Drill, Screwdriver, or a Knife. When combined with a tree branch it can be used to light a primitive fire, more info can be found on the wiki as well, I hope this helps

@Crzy_Akeer No i think you've got a mod on or something because that definitely isn't in B42

We really need an alternative to light fire. Something like flint + hay (dry grass)

@Cry_Akeer Thank you very much! Your kind words go a long way, and love to hear that you're enjoying them

@DarthBrawn It only adds new items and recipes, I tried to stay as true to the Vanilla game as possible. No Vanilla items or recipes were changed apart from adding in-hand models for Lighters and Candles, but no stats were affected

I'm sure this has been asked, but does this mod change vanilla values / recipes; or does it just add new content?

Thanks!

@Gengaroshi that is part of base game already, treebranch and notched plank, just need something like a screwdriver (or other tools) to make the little holes to start fires, been part of the game for a while I believe.

Also Mod Maker, brother you've brighten my day with this mod and the chef one! Thank you so much~!

Really no wood plank and tree branch as firestarter??
Please consider that idea, it's simple as that.

Something definitely missing is being able to use flint to start a fire.

would be awesome if you added some alternative to nails like wooden dowels. they would be an cheap alternative to nails but with very slow build time.

Would there be any way to add a "mine boulder" function for the big rocks that seemingly have no purpose? Or am I missing how to do it. I've right-clicked all over the various boulders and never get an option to mine them for stone.

have russia language?

Oh also, maybe get animal sinew from guts to make thread?

We need a grass nest bed, for primitive survival bedding. Even if it was just a basic 2 by 1 pile of grass bed it would be better than nothing in a pinch.

Can confirm that I was able to run my game with around 100 mods without any problem!

@OxTailSafu fantastic news thank you! Sorry for the disruptions and very happy to hear it is resolved at least in your case

The update definitely fixed things. I can now start my game! I did also want to add that I am using the craft concrete mod as pointed out by @Humanista, so that may have been the issue for me previously.

@K33industries Good news thank you! Feedback is greatly appreciated as I have not been experiencing the CTD, so it's been hard to identify. Hoping the most recent update resolves the issue for those that are experiencing it.

at this point i had no bug with his error, if may accur i say it ^^

I pushed out an update changing all the recipe code to hopefully resolve whatever conflict is happening. Let me know if anyone is still experiencing a crash post update, I will be around all day today to resolve if it persists.

Okay I'm back awake, I believe I know how to fix this now. Patch coming shortly, sorry again everyone

Had to disable to be able to load in.

Game won't load and gives me a CTD.

It's conflicting with Craft Concrete on the dependence of whichever mod loads first, duplicates the crushstone recipe.
Is it possible to check if recipe already exists and if does, can you disable it from loading?

I just added this to my game, and it loaded with no issues or errors. And I do have a huge modlist running.

I went to sleep so I didn't check if it is still crashing. However I did have the Chef mod sub but not yet enabled in the game that crashed.
I do have however more mods

From console.txt

ERROR: General f:0, t:1744290190508> ExceptionLogger.logException> Exception thrown
java.io.IOException: Duplicate Prop2 in recipe CrushStone at CraftRecipe.OnScriptsLoaded(CraftRecipe.java:675).
Stack trace:

A scan of my mods folder for "CrushStone" revealed that Craft Concrete https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3405249655 also contains that recipe

Confirming that it won't load.

Game's not loading now, it did not like it! Throwing up errors and failing to boot the world.

Thank you for the logs @OxTailSafu , the more information the better! I really do appreciate it, the crash seems to be a very strange incompatibility somewhere and should be easy to fix once it's found. I must sleep however which is unfortunate considering the issues some are having with crashing tonight. I will be working on this again first thing in the morning, so if anyone experiences a CTD (Crash to Desktop) give me as much info as you can, if it is too widespread an issue I will roll back the mod once again and consider a new upload to avoid interrupting people's games. Thank you again to everyone who helped out tonight, I will with certainty be fixing any issues that arise and adding compatibility where I can. But in the meantime I can confirm it runs with no errors using the mod collection in the description.

No worries! I posted what I think was in my console log in hopes it can give further insight on what is going on, but if not then I'm more than happy to wait as I love your mod a great deal.

I may need more information on the crash, I have been able to run it on old saves and new using the modlist I have linked as a collection in the mod description. Have been able to verify with 2 other modlists that it is now working, seems like it may be a mod conflict somewhere and hoping I can track down what it is so I can patch compatibility. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, I'm going to wait on rolling back until I have more feedback/data

very nice mod thx

I do not run your new Chef mod, so this is without that installed. And yes, I did unsub/resubscribed your newest update.

@OxTailSafu
2 questions that could really help me out
Do you have B42 Chef subbed?
Have you tried launching after resubscribing?

I've been working on the crash issue for the last couple hours and seems to be resolved at least in that small sample size, but if the error persists I can roll it back again.

@OxTailSafu Usually the last few errors before the CTD will be at the very end of the console log!

I think there are still crashes occurring with this mod, however i'm not sure where in the console I'm supposed to copy/paste. I do see something in regards to the flint starter which I believe is your mod.

Pushed back out the newest update, I believe it was a recipe error from my new B42 Chef mod. Let me know if any other crashes or errors appear and I will roll back and/or fix them as soon as possible. Sorry to anyone that was interrupted by the update!

@PepperCat, sorry to ping you. Did you by chance also have B42 Chef subbed at the time?

@PepperCat it's looking to be maybe some kind of weird conflict. Most of us are all running atleast 50-100+ mods. So now the fun part is to determine where the conflict is. I have confirmed atleast for my issues, I do NOT have a CTD when loading scripts in non-debug mode, and the issue only occurs for Debug Mode. Which usually indicates an out of date mod..........somewhere

Thank you <3 Working on the fix. May have to be a new upload but luckily @BrotherSwiss is helping me figure it out

Crash is gone after the rollback

Nothing to worry about :P that's what everyone agreed when using a mod! keep it up the good work :)

Okay it has been Rolled back, can someone confirm that fixed the CTD for now?
Investigating the issues further

Alright I'm going to rollback the update in the meantime, sorry everyone! May need to post this as a new seperate mod and see if the problem persists

I do get this one:
