RELEASED More Content mod V0.4 Now with growing trees!

Tin ore:

Just to note ore spawn is not as high as on the picture that picture was only taken for testing purpose. Spawnrate should be the same as coal, but expect that to change in future updates.

Download link: Click here
To install the mod just put the .zip file you download here into your starbound folder
Crogram Files (x86)Steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound
Then unzip the .zip there.
When it asks if you want to combine some folders just say YES.

Then you have to open your bootstrap.config located in your
Crogram Files (x86)Steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound/OSNAME so if you are running on a windows pc you whil find your bootstrap.config file to edit in the win32, and for linux 32 bit it would be in the linu2 folder.
edit it with a program such as notepad++ and add this line:

"../mods/morecontentmod",

so the file would look like this:

{
"assetSources" : [
"../mods/morecontentmod",
"../assets"
],
"storageDirectory" : ".."
}


now run starbound and enjoy the extra content!

Tin ore

Info:
An alloysmelter are used in the crafting of bronze and other alloys.

The alloysmelter can be made in an Anvil.

Trojan 2.0

This sword is made of CuAd25 a metal alloy made of silver and copper. This alloy is stronger than silver.

To make CuAd25 you whil have to combine 2 silver and 1 copper in the anvil and then use the alloysmelter to smelt the metals together forming the CuAd25 alloy. Then you whil need 6 CuAd25 bars and 1 ironbar to craft the sword in your anvil.

Tin tipped tools will have 20% better durability than their non tin tipped ones(WIP)
i have only added tin tipped stone pickaxe.

And maybe the biggest thing:
GROWABLE trees!
To get the first sapling you have to put 1 copperbar in the campfire and you whil get 10 saplings(this is temporary)

From this:


To this:

Now that it has grown just press "E" on it and you should get wood most of the times.
REMEMBER growing trees takes TIME so be patient!
If the time it takes is to high i can ofcourse change on th growth time.

If someone wants to send mee some trees that can be added to make some variety, just post them in the comments and i whil add them! To note:
You dont have to make it so that the tree grows in stages, but it just adds to the feeling of it growing.

Tutorial for those who wants:

How to make a new ore:

#1 go to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Starbound\assets\tiles\mods (can be different from person to person)

#2: Copy one of the ore pictures and rename the copyed picture to something such as the name of your ore. Then edit the picture the way you want the ores in block form should look like.

#3: create a new file named as this: NAMEOFORE.matitem with the following in it: Ignore -------
{
"modId" : 40, -----This is the id of the ore, be shure to choose something high or else it might conflict with other ores.
"modName" : "NAME OF ORE",
"frames" : "NAME OF PICTURE OF ORE YOUR ORE.png",
"variants" : 8,
"itemDrop" : "NAME OF DROPPED ORE", ------------REMEMBER in one word
"Description" : "Tin Ore.",
"health" : 4, --------------------How fast it breaks
"breaksWithTile" : true
}

#4: then go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Starbound\assets\items\generic\crafting

#5: and create a file named the YOUR DROPPED ORE NAME.item (REMEMBER in one word!

#6: Copy for eksample the coal.png, and paint it to look like your ore when it is in the inventory then rename the picture to for eksample the name of your ore for easyness.

#7: In it write this:

{
"itemName" : "SAME YOU USED IN NAME OF DROPPED ORE",
"rarity" : "Common",
"inventoryIcon" : "NAME OF YOUR PICTURE YOU CREATED IN #6.png",
"description" : "YOUR DESCRIPTION!.", --------------Description of the item
"shortdescription" : "NAME OF ORE" ----------------Top name of ore when hovering over it
}
#8 Last thing we have to do is to make the ore spawn to do so we have to edit the ordistribution file in this folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Starbound\assets\biomes

#9 In it there whil be lots of lines saying mostly the same but they are ordered from the depth of where the ore spawn so the topmost lines whil be used for ores that only spawns on the surface and the lower the line is the lower the ore whil spawn.

TO add you ore to spawn you whil have to add this [ "NAME OF YOUR ore", HOW RARE THE ORE IS FOR EASYNESS JUST PUT 6.6 SO THE ORE IS EASY TO FIND], inbetween for excample coal and iron

If you have any suggestions please write them in the comments.

Known bugs:
Tree saplings whil not always be able to be placed, but if you try and retile the dirt it should most of the times work.

If you find something hard please ask me some questions in the comments. To note: This is my first ever mod =D

 

i installed your mod and the tin ore spawns and i can place the alloysmelter but my game crashes when i press E on it.

 

advanced mining FTW

 

Can you add regrowable trees and spreading vegetation? (Grass and other plants)

 

I have now added the first growing tree, but i'm not 100% sure how to create spreading vegetation.

 

Awsome! By the way, I usually prefer to download my mods from the nexus. I'm used to that site.

 

Just to note i have the mod on the nexus too in the tool section, but i'm just updating here first.

 

ok

 

I am having a hard time installing.
Edit: Nevermind, I think I got it.

 

Yea i understand wish they can make it easier to install, but i could post a video how to!

 

I think I fixed it. I need to test just to be sure.

 

The latest version (4.1) seem to work on Update v. Annoyed Koala 9/12/2013.
I havent tested ore generation.
You added a player.config file to your mod folder, this overrides settings from other mods. I installed it in my /mods folder and made changes to the player.config manually so the other mods still work. maybe you can past the lines to add in player.config so pleople can choose to edit it manually or use your version? Also your player.config version is from the earlyer version (irritated koala) so it will not work with the new version unless you make changes manually.

 

Oh... That's why it crashed... Still... It would be safe to update when you can.
