sorry for the wait everyone! this update is larger than i thought, but 1.7 will overhaul the internal bag system! this should make everything a lot easier to implement in the future, and paves way to the eventual content mod support update
this mod also has a lot of changes to the current way of getting bags, making them more intuitive and fixes flaws that were present with how things were.

hello everyone! another update is gonna come out sometime, improving obtaining bags and making it less confusing.
bags will spawn in your character's when you create one, and you will be able to craft class specific bags as usual.
the hardmode starter bag will drop from the wall of flesh this time, and class specific hardmode bags will be obtained the same way as pre-hm.

i also plan to make a 2.0 update in the future, adding a better bag system, support for major content mods, although this may take a long time, as i'm not really focused on developing mods at the moment.

i vote for calamity support too

Thank you for making the change to the start up message!

update is out ! hopefully the mod is completely bug-free now.

noted! will look into it later. expect an update soon as i can finally start coding again now that i have time

bug: quality 3 hardmode bag doesn't need pwnhammer

hello, it's been a while!

about calamity support: no, this mod will likely not have calamity starter bags; however if there is a large demand, i'll consider it.

about the welcome chat message: it was an oversight, i'll implement a switch for it as soon as i can

Please add an option to remove the welcome chat message whenever I join a world with this mod.

Stupid question but....
Will this ever get calamity support?

icon is kinda hot

the update is (finally...) out! have fun with the new rebalancing :)

hello everyone who is subscribed to the comments! a quick update about the mod's still-in-progress update:
- All bag qualities have been implemented
- Config to change bag quality is still in progress
- Bag exploit fix is planned to be started on next

i apologize for the extremely slow speed i'm making this mod with. i've been busy with school and my other personal projects and i don't really have the time or motivation to fully focus on a terraria mod. i have taken a long break from developing on it and hopefully i can get the update out asap. the fact that so many people have downloaded this mod is insane, thank you again and sorry to keep you waiting!

Love this starter bag mod. Can't wait to see the new update!

Sweet!

already planned for next update!

Please make it so that you can only get 5, one for each class and some, so that you can't use it for infinite money. I've used this mod and every time it feels like cheating because I can buy anything. Other then that, really good mod!

will add in the next update!

can you list the contents in the starter bags?

ah...

update: mod won't be updated for a while, expect an update maybe in november at best

ah, i see.

just know it'll be a while though cause i've been burnt out of doing anything for a while and i've been picking things back up again

mod compatibility is currently out of my knowledge; i will try to learn how to do it but not right now since i've not been able to code for a bit. currently i'm still focusing on coding the bag quality update!

why so?

probably when i add bags for other content mods along with it :) won't be till a while though

can you add a bag for calamity mod?

also to anyone who sees this, is anyone interested in custom bags for popular content mods?

intentional (and also i made this mod way too quick to think about that), will add a feature that disables the recipe after crafting one bag. next update is fixing the game breaking stuff that comes with this mod lol

Why can the bag be crafted over and over again?

been busy but since i'm free and tmod 1.4.4 just came out, i'll get to work on it! also adding the bag quality recipes, but in the future i want to find a better way to do it.

any update for 1.4.4 port?

i'm very late, but noted! will implement it if i can. i might go the simple way and make craftable qualities like the rest, i'm not very experienced with coding. let me know if you have any ideas for any other ways i should implement it

It would be nice to add a choice of bag quality. After all, now they break the balance very much, the objects inside are strong to begin with. You can add a setting that allows you to choose between generous and less generous bags.

you get the starter bag by crafting it. it doesn't require any items, and you can craft it as many times as you want whenever you want. you can read the tooltips for further info

how do you get the starter bag

thank you I hate grinding

it's supposed to do that as a workaround for progression skipping, it gives you the pwnhammer back though, if not then i'll fix it!

i have some feedback i got the melee hard mode bag and it got rid of my pwnhammer

Good mod! Thank you!

i also get bored in early game :p Thanks

sounds like a hell of a coding venture, and i do agree with the long-term compatibility with other mods, once i have the free time i'll definitely try to work something like this out!

Only issue is that it would be a coding venture much more intense than a standard starter bag. Up for it?

Lastly, when a player loads into a world with a bag config loaded, it will automatically give a player an item called "Starter Bag (name of config)" that has the items you previously configured inside. Later, you could later expand and apply a custom GUI for this feature and possibly use coding similar to shop expander to include more than the standard chest limit in a bag.

The main benefit for doing something like this is long-term modpack compatibility. Your mod will be used over any other starter bag mod because the user gets choice and not to mention the ability to mix and match using different mod items.

Yo. GalaxiMadi. A custom starter bag mod doesn't exist yet, but it could be pretty simple.

Design could go something like this: Have a bag item only accessible through cheats that opens like a chest when right clicked while held that's called "Configuration Bag". The user then could put the desired starter items into the bag. Initially for ease of coding, you could just have the user put in chat commands to save the contents of the bag as a new config with a name, to apply a bag config from file to the active world, and to remove a previous starter bag config.

> Would it be possible to add an option to customise the bags?
i'll look into it!

yeah id love to have torch gods item right away

Would it be possible to add an option to customise the bags?

open them to find out :)

What exactly do the starter bags give you?
