@shadowwolftjc Glad you like it! I agree that it's weird nothing like this made its way into vanilla. I feel that way with a lot of stuff in this game :wat_creep:

So, uh, I'm not super actively developing more mods right now, but it's not that hard of a thing to make so I'll try to work on it when I have a free moment (which will happen eventually... I keep telling myself).

Both this and the dirt conversion mod were pretty thoughtful additions that I'm a bit surprised weren't in Vanilla Starbound.

I would like to request a mod that turns dirt into sand (if one doesn't already exist), since I believe it's also a realistic feature (and would give players earlier access to sand, and thus earlier access to glass, through drying out the dirt).

@Link117 No worries; that kind of stuff happens to everyone. Glad you found it!

@Link117 Sand can be crafted for 2 Loose Silt at the Crafting Bench.
Cthonyxa  [author] 30 Nov, 2017 @ 5:03pm 
@Link117 I'll look into it and get back to you.
Link117 30 Nov, 2017 @ 4:59pm 
yes but i cant make the loose sand into just sand
Cthonyxa  [author] 30 Nov, 2017 @ 4:41pm 
@Link117 I'm reasonably sure that you're talking about Loose Silt, which is already part of the mod.

no i mean the sand that spwans from a sand storm i get too much and its used for nothing i dont use fu
Cthonyxa  [author] 5 Nov, 2017 @ 1:36am 
@Link117 Do you mean glass sand? If so, that's a FU item and right now that's outside the scope of the mod. I'll keep it in mind for a future possible addition, though.

@Bobby I'm still a bit slammed with stuff right now, but I'll make a memo to do that in December.

Can you please provide a Non-Steam download for those which have not bought Starbound on Steam (f.e. GOG)?
Link117 23 Aug, 2017 @ 8:24am

@viirinsoftworks Thanks! I'll give you a shoutout when I'm ready to get started on the Stone Conversion mod.
viirinsoftworks 20 May, 2017 @ 8:13pm 
:) I'll do that! Thanks. Also, good luck.
With a few different mods that let you break down blocks (like Resource Extractor and your 2) it's made me think I should try and work on something so all block types can be broken down into base materials. Let me know next month if you'd like help with the coding, with whatever you're doing.

@viirinsoftworks Not currently, but I got a few requests for one and so once the development of my other active mods has calmed down a bit I plan on making one. It might take some time, though, so please bear with me.

Is there a cobblestone conversion?
Cthonyxa  [author] 19 May, 2017 @ 4:52am 
@Revvemup Uhm, I don't think I put one in. You should be able to convert dry sand to sand and then sand to silt, but I'd have to recheck the recipes to be sure. I'll look everything over this weekend and update if necessary.

is there a conversion from dry sand to loose silt?
Cthonyxa  [author] 13 May, 2017 @ 5:31pm 
@Lizard Gaming and @vinchenzojackal&shoon Okay, I'll start thinking about the recipes for the Stone Conversion mod. They aren't as straightforward as dirt and sand so it might be a bit before I get the actual mod out.

As for a combined mod, I'll put it on my list. I probably won't do it until I do the Stone Conversion, though.

Like blaststone to cobblestone for example.
VinchenzoTheJackal & Shoon 13 May, 2017 @ 10:24am 
What would be super awesome now, is if you could combine multiple mods of yours into a single block mod. Sand Conversion, Dirt Conversion, Sod Blocks Recipe, would work well as a single mod. Heck, you might even be able to make a new mod like the one mentioned below and add it to the list!
Stone, DireStone, MoonStone, AlienStone, SandStone, are all forms of Stone that could possibly be converted from one into another at the Furnace. Gravel&Rubble could be converted into Stone, and vice versa too!, Gravel&Rubble are useless in crafting sadly without mods...

@Lizard Gaming What kind of conversions are you looking for?
Fluffy Catto 12 May, 2017 @ 5:54pm 
Can you do a stone conversion mod?
Cthonyxa  [author] 11 May, 2017 @ 10:44pm 
@vinchenzojackal&shoon Thanks! :happy_creep:
VinchenzoTheJackal & Shoon 11 May, 2017 @ 3:58pm 
Great idea! Useful utility mod for blocks! :D:
