been checking this mod out and wandering if it works on current version of game like below

any news reguarding an update? does this mod currently function in 1.21?

Mandikor very glad to hear it, thank you!:)

quartzar I am currently working on an updated version of the mod, as I have a few days off.

IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!

I will continue to maintain the “Paxel” and “Scarecrow” mods for the foreseeable future, even though I am very busy with work. 🙌

If anyone would like to improve my mods, they are welcome to do so.

I miss this mod, if I get some free time I might try patch it

IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!

I will not be continuing the Paxel and Scarecrow mods for the foreseeable future, as I am very busy with work. I would rather spend what little free time I have with my family.

If anyone feels called upon to continue my mods and/or improve them, they are welcome to do so.

Paxels aren't compatible with the firewood to sticks recipe, also Paxels can't plow farmland, even though they are made with a hoe.

I have a weird bug. I can mine stone, but it takes more time than it should. The same is true for trees. Paxel acts as a shovel that can mine stone and cut trees, but doesn't consider speed. It doesn't matter which material is Paxel, it takes the same amount of time. Is there a way for me to fix it ?

Hello JarJar_240.

I need more information to be able to suggest a solution.
Which additional mods are installed? Which game version are you using? Which version of the Paxel Mod is installed?

The more information I have, the better I can analyze the error.

 
Hey! Your Paxel mod is broken. I keep getting these squares instead. Any advice how to fix it? :)

Zanklev I've had it on my to-do list for (too) long to set the appropriate animation when dismantling, depending on the block material. I'll try out the different animations and change them if necessary.

This is awesome, this is a minor issue but do you think you could rotate it so the pick or axe side is facing the direction it's swinging? Right now it looks awkward swinging the shovel side at everything lol

I have a solution to your problem. The Tools Require Rope mod writes all possible entries in its own configuration file. The paxels and paxel heads are also listed there. Simply change the value "rope" to null and everything is fine.

Placing a single rope in my crafting grid crafts a steel paxel. Not a huge deal as I just don't do that, and I believe it may be more on the mod Tools Require Ropes, but I figured I would inform you. Very cool mod.

Thanks for 10k downloads. ❤️

Thank you for your words. 😇

💖 Fantastic work

An incorrect JSON patching method caused a crash when using Primitive Survival and the Paxel Mod. This has now been fixed and should no longer occur.

I re-uploaded the latest version (v1.4.1) because the modinfo.json still contained the dependency for the 1.18.15 version of the game. This led to this warning about outdated mods.
Please excuse this negligence on my part.

Update for VS 1.19 is on the way, stay tuned.

I appreciate you sparing the time to even just reply, I know folks are busy with IRL. It's funny, after I changed the paxel item class to xskills' pickaxe class and used vein mining in game, I switched the item class back to paxel in the file. But, since I forgot to turn the mode back to default, that paxel still has vein mining on, so an item doesn't need the xskills class to get vein/tunnel mining, just for the mode switcher I think. Maybe I'll figure out how to set up an IDE and see how that works since I didn't see it in the json.

XSkills has probably already made adjustments to the paxel, but I'm not really aware of them.

I've been very involved in my real professional life for a long time and therefore have little time and desire to do modding.
That's why the further development of my mods has come to a standstill. But I'm still trying to follow your thoughts to tackle this problem.

It seems that Xskills doesn't recognize it as a pickaxe to proc the vein mining skill. If I had to guess, rather than a change in this mod, it would be easier to modify xskills to apply the pickaxe patches to paxels, I just need more sleep before I will be able to find where and how to do that.

Edit- nope, not easy from either end, xskills works by changing the pickaxe's class to its own custom item class. Applying that class to the paxel does give it acess to vein mining but breaks it as an axe, removing its ability to fell trees from the bottom. I don't think this can be done with a json patch, so I'll just make do.

Just a weird little thing I noticed: I picked up a couple of Obsidian Paxels from vessels. While they're Tier 2 and can break stone, they can't mine ores (at least Copper). Is that intentional? Seems unusual that it'd break one and not the other

Mandikor I agree, I only added it to the metal one myself.

Thanks for your tip Adzeiros, that's exactly what I did with the last mod update. 😉
However, only for the metal paxels, the stone ones you should not be able to sharpen.

 You can fix the Paxel to work with the Still Necessaries mod by editing the "paxel-metal.json" and "paxel-stone.json" files in the "Itemtype/tool" folders and including the below inside the "attributes" section:

It seems like when I use the Still Necessaries version of Necessaries, I can't sharpen the paxel with the grindstone. I'd love it if you could look into fixing this. :)

Thanks for this tip, so I can specifically look for it in the API docs and github.

Yeap, this setting. I was looking yesterday how it was solved in main game and understand nothing 😅
UPD: it is solved due adding line "tool": "Pickaxe" or another type of tool. Tested this right now, works fine, durability changed, but idk what type of tool is better to use in config. Adding your own type could be a pain, as I understand.

Mandikor

LeonaLens

Do you mean the tool durability setting when creating a new world? I'll have to see how that was solved in the main game, then I should be able to apply it to the Paxel as well.

When you're playing in world with tools durability config changed paxel durability didn't change. Is there any way to fix this?

Mandikor

Press H and search for Paxel. You will see the recipes for them. The stone paxel can no longer be knapped.

How do I craft it? When I start knapping it doesnt give me an option to make a Paxel.

This is a very genious way to help us all save 2 inventory slots! Ima try this mod out just for that alone haha :)

Mandikor Thanks a lot!

Maxilos33 I will have a look at the mod. Depending on how this feature was implemented there, I can adjust my mod.

Mandikor love the mod, but would there be a chance to add compatibility for Richer than Dirt? All shovels there mine the full dirt blocks, while other means return dirtchunks. Mining dirt with the paxel sadly gives dirt chunks instead of the full blocks, and RTD is sadly not maintained anymore.

Mandikor Sounds good. 

EDIT: Oh I didn't see that both the meteoric iron paxel and the steel paxel both used iron ingots and not their prospective ingots. The numbers make more sense now.

Pervy_Sage

I will adjust your calculation. There are always 2 iron ingots added, so I will just add the bonus for that. In addition, the 10% increase in durability as a whole. This will make the following values.

Iron - 5720 durability
Meteoric iron - 6600 durability
Steel - 10340 durability

I think I have found a good intermediate way.

Mandikor What seems fair is taking the average (arithmetic mean) of the 3 tool's durability (shovel, pickaxe, and axe) and multiply that by 2 since you're adding 2 ingots to the recipe. Then add that to the total of the durability before the 2 ingot change, which, if I'm not mistaken, was the total of the durability of all 3 tools used to make the paxel. I'll caculate it and edit the post in a bit.

EDIT:

Iron
1200 Shovel
1000 Pickaxe
900 Axe
Total=3100 Ave=1033 ExtraDurability=2066 TotalDurability=5166
Meteoric Iron
1400 Shovel
1300 Pickaxe
1200 Axe
Total=3900 Ave=1300 ExtraDurability=2600 TotalDurability=6500
Steel
3000 Shovel
2500 Pickaxe
1800 Axe
Total=7300 Ave=2433 ExtraDurability=4866 TotalDurability=12166

Pervy_Sage It's worth considering. Only how much more? 500?

Mandikor Shouldn't the iron and above paxels add a lot more durability if it's going to cost 2 more ingots to construct them?

@Mandikor Thank you for responding and being so quick to want to fix/add compatibility.

"The paxel is ignoring the mod that makes more seeds and sticks drop when trees are cut down without harvesting the leaves first.
I would need to know the name of this mod to include support."

The two mods are:

More Trees More Seeds https://news.kalataka.ru/show/mod/4159

OneStick - TreeFellingFix https://news.kalataka.ru/onestick

Mandikor heck maybe I just used the shhh out of it LOL and dont get me wrong, I still enjoy and use it :)

Stone Age Update is out !!!
I hope to have fixed the problems with the mod support. If you have problems just report here or in Discord.

The paxel isn't going onto the grindstone from Necessaries, no matter which direction I click it from.
The problem has arisen due to the new game update 1.17.10. I am (fortunately) not to blame ;)
But I'm already working on it.

The durability of the paxels is the sum of the durability of the corresponding tools. For me, this was more than sufficient. But it would be no problem to increase the durability, only you have to find a good, balanced value here. Say 5% or 10% more.

I wanted to love this, but as it becomes a three in one tool, It means I use it three times as much in a super short period of time, for all the trouble I went through to get copper and make the thing, it was gone in a single venture out from the house and I didnt even fill my bags. Sad about that, wish it lasted longer to make up for the overlapping and therefore constant use. I dont know if you can but is there a way to increase its durability seperate from the other tools. That would be perfect.

I found a bug related to legendary mobs.
When you forge the paxel head and the forging temperature gets too low, the legendary paxel head turns into an unfinished legendary hoe head. The same thing happens when you take the work item off the anvil.
I have not yet been able to figure out the cause of this. The normal Paxel heads work fine for me without any problems.

I am glad that my remarks gave you a hint.
It is too good to be true, and I have already translated it into Japanese and incorporated it into my mod.😝

Thanks to your hint I found a solution

I must confess that I have not tested all the functionality yet. That's why I didn't really notice the tree cutting feature. I had only tested whether you can cut down tree trunks. I will get to it as soon as possible.

And thank you for liking my mod macoto_hino. That spurs on immensely ;-)

Thanks for the great update!
I played with it in multiplayer and everyone had a blast.
I know it's impossible, but I wish I had come across this mod sooner.

I am so glad to be able to pacel the tools I had in reserve or picked up at ruins, etc.
It's also great to have the pickaxe, axe, and shovel in one place, which was taking up a lot of space in my hotbar.
The only thing I find disappointing is that compared to the vanilla axe, the trees are not destroyed en masse when you cut down the base of a tree.

I don't know the details, but are you saying that you can't take each of these out of a finished axe, a shovel head out of a finished shovel, a pickaxe head out of a finished pickaxe, and so on?
So axel head is not a misspelling? My apologies.

There is no doubt that the mod is useful enough as it is.
I will look forward to future updates.

Unfortunately, with recipes you can create only one type of object. Additionally, you can replace one object of the recipe with another object. Thus, I get back a maximum of 2 objects in the deconstruction recipes. But I would need 3 (axe, pickaxe, shovel). Therefore I use the detour over the axel head (this is not a spelling mistake) to deconstruct the paxel head.
To solve this problem, I guess I have to switch from content mod to code mod. There I could possibly find a solution.

I've been waiting for the upgrade!
I tried it and it was a little different than I expected.
I see that the paxel head can now be disassembled.
I thought it would be possible to remove the axe head from a finished axe, etc. crafted with a leftover stick.

Also, I think "axel head" in the description of "Placeholder for deconstruction" is a misspelling of "Paxel head".
Anyhow, thanks for the great mod.
I'll try to convert it to Japanese as soon as possible and use it in multiplayer from tomorrow.

New Version is out!!!

I still have some problems with the deconstruction recipe. But I think I have found a (cumbersome) solution.

@Mandikor

I look forward to your updates on the mod.

I am already working on implementing the clay form recipes as well as additional recipes for the tool head. They are already finished, but I still want to add the smithing recipe.

I still need to add the recipes for disassembling the paxel and the paxel head, but they are on my todo list.

i think it needs to be castable and smithable, too.

Another super useful mod has arrived.
It would be great if you could use a chisel or knife to take the head out of the tool you get from people like me who keep a spare set of tools or from ruins.😀
