Upgradeable Chest

Description
upgrade your chest with boards.

Larger content, same space.




Woddie and Lucy rate this 5 stars.



Q&A

How Can I Upgrade?
1. Put at least 1 upgrade material in all the outermost slots.
2. Close the container.

Degrade:
1. Clear your chest
2. Put 1 hammer into the chest
3. Close the container
4. It will consume 5 uses, trade for half of the upgrading material


How Large Can The Chest Be?
Here is few options allow you to choose how many times it could update. How large? Check the last option! It is infinite!
in fact not but you may never reach the upper limiteven you hit the limit, I can easily top up the limit. wanna give it a try?


Do The Mod Break The Balance?
Certainly not.
A normal chest has 9 slots and cost 3 boards. i.e. 3 slots for each boards

With this mod,
The 5x5 chest cost a total 11 boards with a total 25 slots, i.e. 25 / 11 = 2.2 slots per boards.
The 7x7 chest cost a total 27 boards with a total 49 slots, i.e. 49 / 27 = 1.8 slots per boards.

That means for each upgrade, you have to trade more boards for less slots.


Why there is no option under UI setting?
It is not able to adjust UI setting in worldgen menu. You must visit mod screen in main menu for setting.
ie. Main Menu → Mods → Server Mods → Upgradable Chest

I hope UI setting could could be set by each client. All client should follow the setting from server host if I do not make it a client option. For example, if the server host turn the "Ice Box Leftward", all clients are forced on even they don't want to. That's why I make them a client option which each client follow their own setting than server's setting. Making it a client option will hide it from worldgen menu. You can only tune the options from main menu.


Why I cannot upgrade the chest?
Test if it works with no other mods, and with default config. option of the mod.
Here are some useful console commands for your test:
spawn a new chest
c_spawn("treasurechest")
give you 10 boards
c_give("boards", 10)
upgrade the nearest chest to 7x7
c_selectnear("treasurechest") c_sel().components.chestupgrade:SetChestLv(7)

If it fails, comment below. Otherwise, check the following Q&A


Is the mod conflict with other mods? How do I know which mod it is?
If you fail to upgrade the container, check to see if you install these mods.
Here are some kind of mods that may not compat with this mod:
1. ALL mods that enlarge chest storage
2. SOME of the mods that add new containers to the game
3. SOME mods that add a new items which can hold/ store/ trade/ delete things in one of its slots




What is needed in other container?
After version 4.0, you can upgrade 4 more containers, i.e. ice box, salt box, dragonfly chest, fish box.
Here are the materials needed:

Ice Box
1 gears in each top-most slots, 1 cut stone in each other outermost slots
Salt Box
1 salt crystal in each outermost slots, and 1 blue gem in the center-most slot
Dragonfly Chest
1 boards in each outermost slots
Fish Box
1 rope in each outermost slots

Row/Column Upgrading Mode
A new upgrading mode is added in version 7.0. Turn it on in Other Functions: Upgrade Mode
Idea From: ♛ EmuLegs
Mode
Detail
normal mode
The mode what we are using. Refer to the above for more info.
expensive mode
A more expensive and complicated mode. Put the upgrading items to all the right-most slots will extend horizontally. Put them to all the bottom-most slots will extend vertically. The items are listed below
complex mode
Turn both of the above on.
OTHER NEW MODE
Welcome to command below if you want your cool idea installed. I will implant them to the mode if I like the idea.

Ice Box
1 gears in first position of the targeted slots, 1 cut stone in each other targeted slots
Salt Box
1 blue gem in first position of the targeted slot, 1 salt crystal in each other targeted slots
Dragonfly Chest
1 boards in each targeted slots
Fish Box
1 rope in each targeted slots

Pageable Upgrade
You may upgrade the chest to make it "pageable". The feature has yet finalized. Welcome to discuss below.
The idea is from mod Pageable containers by Potter_Lee.
*****Remind: This mod is supposed not compatible with his mod. You may test and tell me if they can work together.

After you have upgraded the container to the MAX levels. Put the upgrading items to ALL the slots in FIRST page.
The upgrading items are the most-common-used upgrade item for its normal upgrade. ie. 1 cut stone for all slots in first page, NO gears is needed.

Backpack Upgrade
More or less the same as pageable upgrade. Put the items into first n slots and unequip the backpack. Where n equal to the total number of slots of the non-upgraded backpack. Up to 3 pages
pack
item
slot
Backpack
rope
8
Insulated Pack
electrical doodad

Spice Pack
nitre
6
Piggyback
pig skin
12
Krampus Sack
rope
14

*Special: Krampus Sack is allowed to upgrade 4 extra pages if waxpaper is used.




Update Log:
  • Add Config: Magician's Container(default on)

    fix:
  • unable to reach the max lv for some container
  • the flip page button is not fit to some of the backpack slots

Can you upgrade the size of Chester?

感谢作者,进过调试发现是这个Performance Pack (Server Lag Fix),性能优化包mod导致的,后面打开里面的安全兼容就没事了,哈哈又可以玩了:steamhappy:

我测试了下,只开启勋章和箱子升级,模组设置预设,冰箱7x7大小,离开加载范围、上下洞穴、下玻璃雨都没发现问题。可能还有其他因素影响了,需要知道你还有没有开启其他模组,模组设置。

主玩棱镜勋章超喜欢用这个升级箱子mod,之前玩的时候开启月后发现冰箱淋了玻璃雨里面东西会爆出来,打开暗影伞就没事了。后面新开的档一下地洞或者离去远的地方开视线范围一段时间冰箱也会爆东西,测试之后是和能力勋章冲突。真的超喜欢慢慢升级扩大容量的感觉,下地洞几天回来东西啊烂完了,饥荒两个月没玩了,一想起来就难受。作者有什么办法解决一下吗。

好的感谢

@Viego 并非bug,这个选项是用来除错的。当你们遇到问题时可以打开这个选项,自行测试,不用再额外搜集材料。正常游玩时请勿使用。
Viego 13 Oct @ 4:17pm 
您好,我发现个问题,当打开“自带升级材料”选项时,每次退出游戏重新进入世界时都会重复给升级材料,这导致箱子外面溢出一地材料。

作者你好,请问一下我和我朋友联机,他看不见我升级后的箱子怎么搞?他说还是九个格子,我这就是正常的,他背包显示正常,箱子不正常
Viego 10 Oct @ 10:07pm 
感谢作者,我箱子的问题已经解决了,背包好像不能降级所以更改了升级模式之后并无改变,不过已经解决大部分问题了。

@Viego
背包升级的话,你可以考虑这几个选择:
1. 如果"背包升级模式"调成"仅普通升级"或"混合模式",且"升级模式"调整为"复杂模式"或者"混合模式",在最下面一行放2个升级材料就可以增加一行;
2. 如果都使用预设设置的话,则是翻页,虽然也更省地方,但不能一眼看全;
3. 在游戏设置里"背包样式“选择"融合“,模组设置里"背包样式"选择"合并",单页可显示12格,但升级时可能会遇上麻烦,可以把”昂贵的背包升级"打开,改成所有格子都放材料,不用一直计算材料需求。
个人推荐你把"背包升级模式"、"升级模式"都改成"混合模组",注意可能会造成背景拉伸严重,目前模组里没有合适的选项缓和这种观感。
