Clay Press

SBy Shazza

A simple patch to allow the pulverizer to "press" clay into tiles & shingles (no more clayforming)!

Clay Press

Description

What do?

This itty bitty patch lets you feed red, blue, and fire clay into a pulverizer to "press" it into raw tiles, which can then be pressed again (either through the pulverizer or manually) into raw shingles, at a slightly higher rate compared to regular ol' clayforming.

 

Workflow

<table style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 43.2644%;" border="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="width: 1.64745%; text-align: center;">1 Clay</td> <td style="width: 1.64745%; text-align: center;">Pulverizer</td> <td style="width: 1.64745%; text-align: center;">1 Tile</td> <td style="width: 3.13015%;">

Pulverizer

Crafting Grid

</td> <td style="width: 3.13015%; text-align: center;">4 Shingles</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>

1 piece of clay will ultimately spit out 4 shingles (3 clay to 12 shingles, as opposed to 4 clay to 12 with the clayforming recipe)

&nbsp;

How do?

<span style="background-color: #f1c40f;">You must feed the pulverizer with a chest/crate and chute! Manual input won't work!</span>

Set up your pulverizer for automatic intake, dump your clay in, and sit back while the machine does its magic!

Whuh? Huh? (Incompatibilities)

Due to the Ceramic Tile output change, please use <span style="background-color: #c2e0f4;">claypress_1.0.0 for game versions older than 1.22</span>, it's the same dig, just without the tile pressing and crafting grid shingle recipe.

Thank you Katt19 for your patience in identifying my woopsie.🧡

Why do?

Because I really liked @Mr_Zey's Discord suggestion of a Clay Press - some sort of mechanical clayformer to reduce the sheer wrist strain risk that is clayforming your own roof tiles.

Could it be better? Of course! Preferably you'd have to make some kind of metal ring-mold to justify the pulverizer pressing out the correct shape, but it's my patch, am lazy! 😁

AAAH! HELP?! (Support)

Got bugs? 🐛 I have a Mod Forum on Discord, which is the best available contact and place to dump your crashlogs! I do still check ModDB, so it's not exclusive, just preferred. 👍
