@GigaWatte - oh I didn't see that, thanks :)

ay this is too cheaty

@jinglehearse
I think I saw something similar in the "Most Popular Items in the past week"
You can check it out if you want

Love the mod - it's so helpful for long-term water and gas storage Would it be possible to add the ability to craft a barrel bin/garbage? No worries if not, the mod is still great :)

This is too cheaty

@GigaWatte thank you for expanding on how to make it into a rain barrel.

@Citizen 13
Yeah, you can check the sandbox variables and adjust them

Is it possible to have settings as an admin to adjust how much the barrel can hold? I def like the concept, but even if the devs originally set barrels to 800L back in the day, it's a lot. 200L would be much more reasonable, AND easier to transport also.

GG

@GigaWatte ahh yes sorry that is what i meant, thank you for the reply :)

@TTV TylerGwim
You mean plumbing?
I believe it's broken at the moment and still a WIP

@Sgtfireball
I tried transferring fuel from the tanker to the barrel and vice versa - it works fine for me.
Could you provide a bit more detail about your mod version, sandbox variable configuration (especially for vehicles), and, if possible, a screenshot showing how you reproduce the issue? That would be really helpful

@GigaWatte It was the Containers mod's gas tankers.

Hey @GigaWatte Just need to ask one thing, im not very good at reading as im a moron. can you connect a barrel to a sink like you can with a normal water catcher?

@Sgtfireball
Which mod did you use for the gas tanker?
I'll check if it works as expected or if there's an issue

huge mistake made, attempted siphoning gasoline from a modded gas tanker the normal way, deleted 800 units of gasoline. do not make the same mistake i did.

Would be nice to see this expanded into joke territory. Like pouring all the soda bottles or booze bottles into a barrel created Jungle Juice / Grog

This is too cheaty

@SP4RTAN
Got it. Yeah, I know how this mod works.
It calculates the amount of water needs to be added to the rain barrel based on the rain intensity and the time has passed.
So when you come back, the rain barrel is updated with new amount.
In the case of generators, this would not work as nicely.

@GigaWatte the mod I linked in my previous comment Persistent Rain Collector Refill Manager fixed the issue of the old rain collectors that didn't work when you were far away before the devs fixed it. It might be possible to something similar so that the generator is able to refuel over time even if you're far away.

@BeefGrease
I think it's quite out of the scope. I'll think about it later.

@EDELRAUSCHEN
I think it's possible to add it. I just need to check

@SP4RTAN
I didn't quite understand what you meant. Could you please explain it in a bit more detail?

@Swisher2Sweet_
The mod relies heavily on the B42 API and components, so adding compatibility along with multiplayer support would take a huge amount of time - something I unfortunately don't have now.

@squidwrd
You are likely playing Build41 game version. This mod is only for Build42

when i go to enable the mod in the game it does not show it under my mods tab does anyone know why this is ? i cant seem to find the fix for it and its also happening on a few other mods i subscribe too

We meed this in build 41 to we can’t even play multiplayer in 42 yet I’m sure a lot of ppl will miss this one!

al fin, se necesitaba esto para tenr uso

@GigaWatte

Would it be possible to implement something that keeps track of it when you're far away? Similar to how Persistent Rain Collector Refill Manager did before the devs fixed it?

is it possible to fill up animal troughs straight from the (rain-)barrels, when next to each other?

dang didn't read the decription well when i first installed it a while ago Dx Maybe you could do something with truck beds like some modded vehicles with addable storage had, and make a slot in the vehicle mechanics window on trucks that allows adding the barrel in a way its accessible from next to the truck bed? I'm honestly not sure how you could make it work for hauling lol

How do you "cut the lid"? o_O
I looked at options with having a knife, a saw, a hatchet in my inventory but cannot find it.

@Isabela Wolf
Sad to hear. Did you enabled it for the save game? And what your steps to check?

@brenanmaynard
pls check the description

@SP4RTAN
Yes, it would be great to have such a possibility. But the more I look into it, the less confident I am that it will work. It is more like old rain barrels that did not work if you were very far away.

its okay!

The mod just dont work, even though it was selected, it didn't change anything in the game.

does it collect rain?

Thanks for the info GigaWatte and great work!

Really looking forward to being able to connect a barrel to a generator with a hose. I'll finally be able to leave my base for a week or two without worrying about my generator running out of fuel haha

Хороший мод

My bad i was using the non beta version.

@Photo ❤
This option should be visible depending on whether you have the necessary tools or if there are any objects nearby.
I suppose you're using the non-beta version of the mod, so it's unavailable for now.

@GerardotheCrusader
Currently, only the capped barrel is usable in the mod.
I know there are other types of barrels on the map.
I will try to make them functional a little later.
First, I want to finish binding the barrel to the generator so it can refuel over time.
And there are some minor fixes needs to be implemented as well

I can't fill the barrel with water in beige sink even i have hose&funnel. There's no indicate of add from object.

There are two types of drums, the metal capped one which i can uncap or the open one which i cant. So does the mod only work with the ones you can uncap?

@Ja1ML
Sure, check beta version of the mod

@SP4RTAN
Wow, you're eagle-eyed, bro.
Thanks, I'll fix it

@Black_moons
You're likely right - the fluid "Gasoline" no longer exists in the game.
Thanks for pointing it out! I'll fix it soon

Can confirm that gasoline spawns properly when 'petrol' is used in the fluid spawn list.

(Also, alcohol, vodka and a few others. weeee gonna party like its the end of the world)
