@caron300 : What plugins do you have that mess with glass?

 

The only thing i can see is Tables, which allow placing pressure plate on glass...

 

May I help you troll him? OHWAIT WE SHOULDN'T DO THAT. He is to this site as God is to bible wearers o.0

[It isn't safe here. We will discuss our trolling later >_>]

 

I'll post a little patch in a bit.

 

This video shows how pistons mod crush blocks into a drop. Mojang decided to remove the new pistons' ability to crush blocks.

would've been better if you had glass or something, over the lava. that way, we wouldn't have to worry about the item falling into the lava.

 

@nichiatu Push it a few blocks away from the lava then break it

I might consider allowing "block" over "glass" over "lava." as well... Maybe.

 

b - block that will be melted
_
g - glass
_
l - lava

like that, would be great

 

will you? because i dont know why the glass is infinite for me. I dont think any of my plugins are conflicting

 

Yeah. Actually that was my fault. I added "compatibility" and added a bug with it.

Update: Patched glass bug. @caron300

Thanks! working perfectly on my server

 

I have found a glitch i think. When i use iron ore over the lava it gives a iron block...which i know its supposed to do, but when you mine the iron block it drops a iron block...causing a major dupe basically. because that block can be turned to 9 ingots...Please Fix as soon as you can! I love the plugin though! I have a machine hooked up to 3 pistons so all i do is step on a pressure plate and the pistons feed each other.

 

Found a bug: Item duplication exploit:
TNT explosions will produce the iron or gold block used as a placeholder for the smelted ingot.

 

@dillon_1996 Drops an iron block? That shouldn't happen. Does it drop the block AND the ingot?

If it's a plugin messing with it, moving the priority to lowest might fix it... But I'd like to know what plugins you are using first.

Ah... I forgot I don't even check for other ways items "drop." I'll fix that soon.

Thank you very much. I hope to use TNT and Minecart Mania's cart collection system to completely automate the block generation system. If you can make TNT drop glass blocks reliably I'll bake you some delicious cookies.

 

@Draconicus : I haven't figured out how to set TNT to drop specific items, and had to set it so it removed the drop completely... *thinks* Wait a minute...

@dillon_1996 : Please see if the new update has fixed your problem.

 

Auto-breaking refined items would be SPECTACULAR.
Please consider it.
You could have water or a specific block be the 'breaker' spot.

 

@Draconicus I've considered that. I'll code it next weekend (or when I have time)

 

i

it drops just the block. which is basically 9 ingots to 1 ore...I am using essentials,heroicdeath, backup, dropchest, worldedit, sphereworld, choptree, LWC, mobarena, craftbook(all 4), showcase,anticreeper, creaturebox, and PISTONSMELTER

 

@dillon_1996 : did 1.5.5 fix the problem? (I changed the event process)

 

This is great! I personally love it. Makes smelting more fun and easier. But not as efficient.
Maybe add a possible way to make it more efficient?
Also I dont like the fact that the blocks must be PUSHED over the lava. Add in the ability to pull the block over lava?

I attempted to make a machine where you pull the lever down it refines the block pull it again and its back where it started. All at a safe distance away from the lava to where players cant access it and your item doesnt fall in. But the block you attempt to smelt doesnt smelt when its pulled over :<

 

Does it change if you push it over with a sticky piston?

THIS PLEASE.
Maybe name it PistonSmoosher?
We could make STONE GENERATORS!

@msw1 : Stone generation is by lava hitting water, the piston would have just "moved" the block if it wasn't a double piston.

 

I didnt need the new update actually...last night my admin figured it out. If u use superpickaxe(worldedit) and mine the block it drops a block. without it, it doesnt. and i forgot i had super pickaxe on the whole time...sorry for the troubles.

 

@majorjae :
Until a proper API is coded for pistons, my round about way would not be efficient enough to detect if pulled by a sticky piston, movement happens too fast for the plugin to detect much of anything for that matter. But I did however patch in the following...

UPDATE: 1.6

- You can now push the block DOWN with pistons to smelt the block (not very useful with sand... it falls)... What can you create with this I wonder?​

- You can now have the lava covered with glass​

- Items break when pushed directly over water​

@nichiatu @Flenix (tagging for update)

Super pickaxe is it? Hmm.. I "might" look for a way to override that at a later date.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Hmm, blocks that are smelted can only break if pushed again into over the water. Close enough, I now can make automatic stone generator. Can you make cobblestone break over water?

 

That'd have to be a different plugin, or a different feature. Right now it's a "smelter." can't smelt cobblestone. =P

And it's not "can only break," it's "automatically breaks." Manually breaking it is still there.

Update: @Draconicus

- TnT now drops correct items on explode... (It produces an error in the log... but it works)​

See error, and help me solve it in the main post! >.>

wow, thanks for noticing me :3

 

No problem. anytime @nichiatu

New update coming soon! (I was rudely awoken and can't get back to sleep...) But first I have to code it. =P

 

I hate the coding part...
