RELEASED Tractor Mod *

@DragonDreads Thanks for the suggestion! I do want to support that eventually. It's disabled for now because the game behaves strangely when you dig up an artifact spot from a horse (which the tractor is internally).

 

Tractor Mod 4.2 is now available! Changes in this release:

• Updated to SMAPI 2.1.
• Added support for the axe clearing weeds (default) and live crops (optional).
• Added support for seasonal textures.
• Added compatibility with Farm Expansion and Seed Bag.
• Added support for controller & mouse bindings.
• Added Portuguese translations by Fabilows and TaelFayre.
• Switched to SMAPI update checks.

 

Hello. Someone requested for me to recolour your garage to fit my Black and White (seasonal) buildings. I hope this is okay for you.
I've made sure to link your original mod to it.

 

@tiffy961 Recolors are welcome! Can you post them here too for us to see?

 

Of course!
My mod is here: https://community.playstarbound.com...black-and-white-seasonal.126253/#post-3238179

And the recolour looks like this:

 

@Pathoschild Sorry to bother you again, but I've a question. I've noticed that at times the tractors 1HP sound seems faster than at other times. i.e when leaving the farm the tractor seems to gallop but when I get off of it to talk to someone or go into a store when I come back and get back on it the sound is slower as is the riding animation. Is this normal?

 

@DragonDreads I think that's a game bug; I've seen the same happen with the regular horse.

 

@Pathoschild Thanks for the reply. I've a different suggestion, though not sure if it would work or could even be implemented, but is there anyway to get the tractor to work with planting grass starters? Replanting the animal's fields by hand is a pain.

 

@Pathoschild
I'm getting an error log in my SMAPI that says the "Tractor Mod failed on entry and might not work properly." Then it gives me a list of the technical details.
This is as of the 2.2 SMAPI update.

I haven't progressed far enough in my new play to know if the mod actually will work or not.
I'm also not sure I have the funds on my main play to purchase the tractor.

 

@DragonDreads I could add support for enabling custom items in the config.json; would that work for you?

@Kybble Can you try it again and post your latest SMAPI log?

 

@Pathoschild
The file I had wasn't any different from what was available (since I just downloaded the mod today), but when I deleted it and replaced it with a fresh download, it worked just fine. .n.
So no issues now, was probably just something wonky with my download.

Good to go now. o:

 

@Pathoschild Thanks. That would be great if you wouldn't mind giving me some advice on how to get it to work with the custom items.

 

@DragonDreads It's not possible yet, but I'll add support for custom items in an upcoming version.

 

@Pathoschild Yes, it's me again. Just a feedback thing I noticed. The experimental option to pass through trellis crops doesn't always work. Whether for harvesting or watering the tractor will get stuck. If I jump off of it, move to the side and get back on, it will sometimes reset and work again. And now for yet another question. The speed of the tractor, I know in the config file there is a setting for it but as I'm quite a mod newbie I'm not sure how to go about changing the speed to make it just a tad bit faster... like on par with the horse. Unless one of my mods changes the horse speed and I'm just too blind to have noticed it that is.

 

@DragonDreads Yep, that option is experimental because it doesn't work reliably yet.

You can open the config.json file in a text editor to change the speed. Find the TractorSpeed setting, and change the value from -2 to 0 to match the horse.

 

Thank you so much.

 

Hi there,
I am running SMAPI 2.2
I only have the Tractor Mod to test it alone.
When I enter Robin's house and open her shop, game froze, had to kill it.
https://log.smapi.io/1ub0pNXC
Maybe it's not compatible for SMAPI 2.2? The last post I saw mentionned SMAPI 2.1

 

Hi @Haindash. Tractor Mod should work fine with the latest SMAPI. Does this always happen when you open her shop, or only once? Can you try it again, then post a screenshot of the SMAPI console when the game freezes?

 

Hi @Pathoschild ,

Thanks for responding.
So I tried again. When I open and choose 'Construct Farm Building' I get the spinning wheel and task manager saying "Not Responding"
There's nothing special on the SMAPI console to see. Game just froze and I have to kill it.
I'm on Mac by the way.

@Haindash I think this is the same issue as your comment on Seasonal Immersion, so I'll help you there.
