Should be fixed in versions 1.2.2+. Thanks!

I really love the idea of this mod, but I'm not sure if I have pure bad luck with it. What are the percentage chances of looting a temporal fragment or drifter tears from fallen enemies? I haven't been killing an especially large number of drifters/shivers/blowtorns (just a few every now and then), but I've been playing for around 52 hours and a half without obtaining a single fragment. I only know it's installed because the drifter's tears, hearthstones, warpstones, inert runestone, temporal infuser, and temporal crux appear in my handbook.

It's a 1.21.0 world and I'm using the ruststones_1.2.1 file.

I've downloaded 1.2.1 for 1.21 release and I'm not sure how exactly to better determine I guess whats conflicting with it because I am not getting any drifter tears from any drifters I kill.

Are you supposed to only be able to bind one location, per player, with warpstones? I tried making a second warpstone for a second location, but when I engraved the second location, my warpstone back at base had also changed to this second location. Tried upgrading one to see if that'd help, but when I re-engraved the first location on the now greater warpstone, the lesser warpstone also got changed. Again. Can't tell if that's the intended function, or a bug.

Would it be possible to add a personalized description? in order to have organized which stones go to which place

1: great to hear that this is getting revamped
2: perhaps you could make a mineable object (like crystalized temporal shards?) form when a drifter dies (more or better shards for more dangerous ones), that way almost no mod could conflict with it?  
3: a grandmaster / lord of time tier would be quite nice, likely requiring a harder to get resource, but making a permanent and non-draining item...
4: still hope to see the other runes you ones had planned get made at some point.
5: would be nice to be able to upgrade warpstones as well as hearthstones, possibly allowing multiple locations to be logged?  or maybe the final upgrade takes several warp stones and a hearth stone all upgraded to make the final version with multiple locations
6: a death stone would be nice, allowing you to return to locations you died at

This mod is next on the revamp list. I need to figure out how I am handling these temporal fragments. I may just create a new item, maybe a difter tear or something. I need to redesign how the items drop since some mods hijack drifter drops which has been a thorn in my side with this mod. Depending on how I search for items, I may be able to have some compatibility with my magic mod. Still need to figure that out though.

Hey Vies, any chance you could make the temporal fragments from this mod be cross-compatible with the fragments from Rustbound Magic? As-is, they seem to be two different fragments that aren't interchangable.

Thanks as always, love your mods!

Hey! Sorry for the radio silence! If you all have been checking out the stream, you know that I have been working on a magic mod for VS called "Rustbound Magic"! I will be moving it out of the "draft" state in the next couple of days in all of its 'alpha' glory! 

Once at mod is out and stable, I will be doing another pass through my other mods to get them up to date and working with .NET7. 

I think I can confirm that the issue is with the Better Balance (Better Drifters Fork) mod overwriting the entity drops so that the temporal fragments do not show up. I just installed that mod and am having the same issue as September If it's possible to make a craftable version of the fragments in a future patch, that'd be an awesome work around. Thanks Vies!

Edit: Scratch that, finally had one temporal fragment drop off of a surface drifter. Must just not have been getting good dice rolls earlier.

September Thank you for letting me know about the drops not working, I will come up with a crafting recipe for them in place of a drop. Another mod may be hijacking the drifter drop array, maybe overriding it instead of adding to it. As for the second part, I wonder if it is a sequencing thing. I may have to find a way to spawn the portal a bit before the teleport occurs. I will look into that as well. 

I killed a lot of Drifters of varying strength so far (dozens upon dozens at the time of writing), but never got a single Temporal Fragment. Is there a chance your mod might be clashing with another? I also have "Better Balance (Better Drifters fork)" and I suspect it might be overwriting the drops somehow. I'm getting all drops except the Temporal Fragments. It would also be nice if we could craft the fragments, unless they are already common drops.

Also, the stones work perfectly well, but sometimes the Hearthstone opens a rift at the DESTINATION. I had this happen twice so far when returning home (out of 2+ dozen returns). Weird part was that I never used the Warpstone at or near my spawn (or home structure, for that matter), so it doesn't make sense for a rift to spawn on the exact coordinates where my spawn is. Restarting the game (after a crash) deleted it after it has been active for around an in-game week, so it was a client-side bug, I think. I host a local server when playing, so I could tell that much.

This mod is now released for VS1.17.10. Have fun!

sooo.... you said you had a 1.17 version on jun 23rd? any chance of it getting released?

I actually have a working 1.17.0 build already, just got busy and haven't released it yet. I can do that sometime this morning.

Thanks! I thought this would be a nifty mod. As for your issues with it, I build the mod against 1.16.5, so I know it works with that. I would update to 1.16.5.

Any plans on making it work with 1.17?  currently when I place Temporal Infuser, I find myself crash to desktop.  

Amazing concept!

Back in my old 1.14 world I used Temporal Mirrors for this utility, but that seemed very moddy. This approach is mouch more refined and in tune with the worldbuilding, I love it.

Tho I couldn't get it working... might just be a me issue tho. The game crashed when I rightclicked the T-Infuser. "System.NullReferenceException", won't bother with the full crashlog as half Hungarian with Windows being set to my native tongue. Also using 1.16.1 'cuz of other mods not updated. And also since you are supposed to open that with the corresponding item it might not be game-breaking, gonna double-check.

[EDIT: nope, crashes just the same with inert ruststone in hand on 1.16.1]

Also as a general practice on mod-game compatibility I noticed some wiggle room. Should I update to 1.16.5 and try to use the 1.16.1 mods that way, or keep the core game in line with the oldest release mod of my pack for best/most stable experience? Everything is in 1.16.x, I didn't dare to differ in main version, but read many can work.

Thank You very much!

You know it! The fruits of all of those modding livestreams. Haha!
