    Thank you,
    Also if you want to hot link images - you need to give the direct url of the image
    Code:
    http://i.imgur.com/8pFjuCV.png
    Not just the page the image is on.
    I fixed your post.

    You spelled Unofficial wrong in the filename and title in the book.

    So what's next on the list for tutorials? Making custom crafting stations, perhaps? (fingers crossed)
    The forum tutorial by Shardshunt for that is a little outdated at this point.

    Not really sure what you mean by Custom crafting stations

    How to make a custom crafting table, I mean, for modded weapons, armor, materials, that sort of thing.

    Oh it is pretty simple, all you do is add this to an object
    Code:
      "interactAction" : "OpenCraftingInterface",
      "interactData" : {
        "config" : "/interface/windowconfig/crafting.config",
        "paneLayoutOverride" : {
          "windowtitle" : {
            "title" : "  Iron Crafting Table",
            "subtitle" : "  Heavy duty crafting!",
            "icon" : {
              "file" : "/interface/crafting/ironcraftingtable.png"
            }
          }
        },
        "filter" : [ "plain", "craftingtable", "ironcraftingtable" ]
      },
    
    Filter = which recipe groups you want to show.
    And that is it.

    Hi, the site that hosts your e-book redirects you to webpages (advertising) when you download it, and this time it was an obvious phishing/scamming attempt with pop-ups pretending to be Windows alerts (that ad_block didn't even catch), things to install and a phone number to call. It would not close without agreeing to click something that would have downloaded who-knows-what to the pc, but the browser ended up blocking the pop-up.
    Not your fault obviously, but I thought you'd like to know in case you want to change hosting until the host gets their act together.
    Thanks again for the great e-book, this morning I made some custom plants thanks to your help!

    I'm not sure if I should ask this here but I have a problem with making armor, Everything works for my modded armor in game,(description, icon, etc) but when I put it on nothing is there, what should I do?

    You should check your starbound.log for an error.
    Post the error in the main modding section.

    wouldn't I look at the log if the game crashed wich is not my case, and where do i find the log?

    The log's not just for crashes, it's for pinpointing any kind of error (say, if you're testing a custom crafting table and it will. not. work). It can be found in Starbound\storage, it's the starbound.log file.

    Always better to post the full log. . And its better to post the log in the main modding section - so all users can benefit.

    Well Just thought I would give everyone a heads up - the next update planned is about simple animation and the animation file.

    There is no current ETA for it.
