Getting quite a few of the errors below spamming in console. Using latest mod version.

Works for me on 1.21.5.

The wheel seems to run at different speeds for different players on the server I run.  Is this because of their ping?  Not sure why it would be happening.  I can make four bowls in the time it takes another player to place down the first layer of two bowls of a four bowl set.

Voltage sorry for the late replay been busy
i will try in a few

seems to be working fine now on 1.1.7 for me atleast

Got a client exception here on my server. Was trying to make a blue clay jug at the time.

Given the direction clay gets added to an item, is there a way to reverse the direction the wheel spins to match?

Germwarfare Could I get your logs after loading into the world with the mod enabled? You can just use pastebin to send them.

@voltage i added update and no joy 

CrazyUncleSole Germwarfare Could you give me your modlist and logs? I can't seem to replicate this issue on my end. In the meantime, I released an update that might fix it so let me know if that's the case.

also vanished from my server 

Voltage seem 1.1.5 is broken the placed pottery wheel vanishes and does not show up in the hand book any more
tested this on the main server and test server
had to back date to 1.1.4 for everything to revert

Voltage Yeah, we use the pottery wheel on our server and wanted to make sure people get XP on xSkill when using it. I'll also be dropping another addon patch for xSkill that should fix a lot of issues with it. ATM, it won't be a fork—just an addon patch. Also, I'm going to make a remaster version of xSkill for our server soon-ish, so I need to learn how the mod works inside and out before we build our own system using it as a base. If you come up with any other cool systems for the game like the pottery wheel, let me know and I'll see about dropping an xSkill patch for them.

keep up the good work :)

CrazyUncleSole Thanks for the heads up, should be fixed now. Also I really appreciate the patch, never thought I'd make a mod that was popular enough for someone to make a patch for it.

ok after reading a comment by Crazyuncle, looks like its a vanilla based config and not the server, so im guessing some players may abuse this unless the server side config is the max one can set.

NightDragon yes it does works with 1.21.5 to

is this work with 1.21.4 ?

Alrighty Pottery wheel + xskill patch is now down and uploaded
You still need both mods, as this only adds support for the pottery wheel to XSkills.

Hope you all enjoy 

Also sorry it took longer then i wanted had drive issue and had to replace my main drive. 

I saw a comment saying this mod is not worth it because it is slow and i disagree.
I am playing on VoxelsPerUse 10 and it is amazing. 

Also, a recommendation to the dev of Pottery Wheel: I recommend making it so the config syncs between the server and client, because at the moment if the server changes the Pottery Wheel config, the player will be on the default config values.

I am working on a patch mod that adds XSkill support for the pottery wheel. It is a separate mod, so you have to download it with this mod and XSkills, but it should give you XP at the same rate normal clay making does. Should have it out sometime today.

hello, in this desription it looks like mod which just speeds up vanilla clayforming
but actually it clayforiming auto just holding RMB without needing to aim .

btw if you hold right click and then alt tab it continues assuming you have the game on full screen. very based

Great idea for a mod, only unfortunate that the default values are so low it's basically not worth using at all unless every user changes the code. My hands would rather do bursts of 2-3 vessels with breaks between than spend 10 minutes holding right click per vessel. While double the voxels sounds good on paper for the benefits of mechanical power, in practice it really feels like nothing, as I'm still just standing there holding right click for way too long.

I always wondered why a pottery wheel was never a thing in VS. I get manually doing pottery but after a while it does cramp your hands when you need to make all the pottery yourself in singleplayer or when you are the dedicated pottery guy in a group.

can value of voxelsperuse be higher than 2 by defult? It's pointless to use it without Windmil, and it's sad cause it should help you more than clay forming on the ground when you're bending over...

What i mean is, can you make pottery Wheel  worth of using in Early game by defult?

+1 for xSkills compatibility here too!

+1 For XSkills compatability!

Would it be possible to add an option to set the wheel to automatically start the same recipe again if it is clicked with more clay after recipe completion? It'd be really, really convenient to have a way to bulk-craft things without needing to crouch-right click every time.

Is poweredMultiplier multiplied by wind %? Seems kind of meh otherwise. Voltage

Edit: In fact it's doing nothing at all. I have my values set to 1 and 5, initially they were 1 and 2 and then I had tried 1 and 3. It still adds the same amount on the same wind % while powered.

Still a great mod

translate es completed https://crowdin.com/editor/vintage-story-mods/207/en-es

Nymous you can use a quern for that at least, lol.

I felt soul-shaking disappointment when I realized that standing or sitting on top of the pottery wheel doesn't make me spin around. Imagine the synergy with combat overhaul if I could click and swing and have the spinning do the rest to turn me into a blender.

Hi Voltage, I love this concept you've made into your mod, but I'm having an issue where connecting the pottery wheel to my windmill with a transmission and clutch is causing the pottery wheel to render incorrectly. When the clutch is disconnected and you first place the block down, then engage the clutch, the rotating texture will appear inside of the static texture and both will render. I've also encountered an issue where the pottery wheel is already moving and you disengage the clutch; the texture renders invisible. It seems to be a cosmetic issue, since the functionality of the block remains viable in both states.

 Yes please make this compatible with XSkillz!

Hmm.. would be nice to have this compatible with Xskills..

The config file the mod generates for end user clients does not match the settings we set for the server no matter what we do (Deleting the file and letting the client regenerate it creates it with the default settings)

For instance, on our server we set it to 1 voxel with a 16x power speed multiplier, but since the user clients only get the default of 1 voxel and 2x multiplier there is no way for them to benefit from the speed without manually setting the config up on their machines which is not ideal for a server setting for us to have to have every single user make this change.

We want them to have the server settings and not the default that the mod creates. Is there some change you can make to make this server friendly in this regard?

Working fine on dedicated server but have not tried powering it yet.

Is this not working with dedicated servers?

Maamessu

I'm having the same issue on my server, did you ever find a fix?

Any chance this can get support for red clay and 1.20?

Hi, how do I send you the translation es-419?

using this mod on my server 1.19.8 both the mod in my folder and in the servers folder are the same 1.1.1 version but i keep getting the error that an action i (or my client) did caused an unhandled exception but doesnt give me any more info than that. the wheel works fine in single player.

mod list if itll help

I adore this mod. There is so little missing for it to be perfect: water/wind to automaticly turn.

Would you be willing to make a similar mod for fabrics?
(Loom) [wherein it crafts flax fibers into twine, twine into cloth when it has enough] and how much would that cost? {I may be able to make the model(s)}

Any chacne we could get a patch for xskills so that we get pottery xp when using the wheel?

Does this work with modded clays, such as from Bricklayers?

A player on my server is having an issue where the pottery wheel is only adding one voxel at a time despite the config file being set to 12.

based

Blessed, thank you

Sorry for the long delay. I've been kinda busy lately. I added a new release (thanks to Ross) that is marked as compatible with 1.19.

I really love this mod, do you have any plans to update it to 1.19.x?

does ne1 know if its working on the new stable? thx

I did figure out why the pottery wheel was kicking me from the server. It seems that the client side config needs to either match or at the very least be default. I also did some testing and if a server has the config set faster, but the client is default then the pottery wheel will go at the default speed for that particular player. If the client is set faster than the server it results in an exception and a kick from the server.

hey just so you know, this thing has a Huuuuuge impact on FPS while turning & forming large clay objects

No matter what I set the VoxelsPerUse to it still seems to be 1?

v1.19.0-rc.1 tested on a couple things, seems to be working.

For those with questions about Xskills pottery compat, I'll look into it. If I can patch it, it'll be in my upcoming mod, Skill Master.

Can you add an optional dependency, such that if xskills is installed, you get pottery XP?

As it stands, while I love the concept of the pottery wheel, I think the default configs are a bit slow, especially when you take the duplicate layer option into account for regular clay forming. I'd like to suggest bumping up the default to 2 voxels per use, maybe even 4 if you feel particularly generous, to bring it on-par with Advanced Clayforming™.

Im currently trying to use a pottery wheel on a server and it keeps kicking me saying "An action you (or your client) did caused an unhandled exception" The server admins cant figure it out and are theorizing it may be an issue with the mod its self

Would also love to see xSkills compatibility. Although that may be really difficult. So I wouldn't worry about it too much, if it is.

I love this mod and enjoy using it. My only gripe is that, while using it, roughly every few seconds my game will freeze for a second or two, only while using the pottery wheel. It's consistent and replicatable for me. I talked about it in the discord and was recommended I point it out here.

In client debug, this shows when I start using the pottery wheel:

1.10.2023 21:31:02.049 [VerboseDebug] Select clay from recipe 29, have 76 recipes.
1.10.2023 21:31:03 [Debug] Rift weather value: calm
1.10.2023 21:31:04.885 [VerboseDebug] Received player data for playeruid Vz9K2qJtdC8SWMacvolJ3DT0
1.10.2023 21:31:04.886 [VerboseDebug] Done handling playerdata packet

And in server main this shows that the server stops ticking while using it:

1.10.2023 21:31:41 [Warning] Server overloaded. A tick took 9273ms to complete.
1.10.2023 21:31:58 [Notification] Server ticking has been suspended
1.10.2023 21:32:19 [Notification] A client reconnected, resuming game calendar.
1.10.2023 21:32:19 [Notification] Server ticking has been resumed
1.10.2023 21:32:25 [Notification] Server ticking has been suspended

Again, consistently replicatable for me, every time it freezes while using pottery wheel, the server stops ticking. The game doesn't crash or anything, I can keep playing after a second or two of my game being frozen, so it's only a minor annoyance at worst. Just figured I'd bring it up.

EDIT: Note, upon looking at this mod page and realizing it has a config, changing the pixels per use from 1 (default) to 10 has actually somehow fixed the hitching issue for me. Maybe because I spend less time on the wheel, but either way it's a lot better now lol!

Hi Voltage, I will join with the previous questions about the XSkills compatibility, is there a chance?

is it compatible with bricklayers mod?

I know you said in a previous comment that this mod isn't compat with xskills. Is it possible to make it compatible or is that something that the xskills dev would need to add?

would love to have this mod's powered functionality scale with mechanical power, sort of like querns and the auto sifter mod. I think 20 voxels per use as an upper limit is totally reasonable, as well lmao. Can imagine a super speed pottery wheel spinning crazy fast, finishing clay things in less than a second

AngryOscar I was kinda thinking about it anyway so I went ahead and added a configuration file for the mod. The mod page has been updated with more details if you want to increase the speed.

What line of code can I edit to make this work faster? Its super neat but my gf and I still rather do it the original way because its much faster. Thanks

Some time ago I made a pottery wheel for my mod, the block is only decorative, but maybe my model and my textures can be useful in your mod.
If you are interested send me a DM on VS discord.

Wyrtus Thanks for letting me know, should be fixed now

There is a Typo on the game version in the modinfo.json who prevents the mod to work, its jut a missing . (dot) on the version
it is showing on the modinfo.json like 1.18.0-pre 3

how it is:

"dependencies": {
"game": "1.18.0-pre 3"

}

how it should be:

"dependencies": {
"game": "1.18.0-pre.3"

}

Thank you very much. lol I am an old guy and things aren't always obvious to me.

RMB = Right Mouse Button (Right Click)

What is RMB?

Awesome! Thanks.

@voltage Totally worth <3

Verlia You won't get any experience points when using the wheel and you won't recieve any benefits from the abilities when using the wheel, but otherwise it shouldn't break.

Love this <3

How is it not compatible with XSkills? Like, will it break with it? Or just doesn't skill up pottery with XSkills? Because I'd like to keep XSkills and have this, too.

Craluminum Added a source link to github.

Thranos It's not compatible with XSkills but it should work with modded clay/clay forming.

Does it have source on github?

Is this compatible with XSkills, by any chance?
Also, does it support modded clays/clayforming shapes?

Vinter_Nacht Sure, just updated the description.

Cab you provide an explanation of how this works in the mod description?
