Adding this to an existing game doesn't seem to let it work properly, and barrels cant be opened.

Hi @Eli
There must be an option to Uncap even without any tools if you call context menu on a proper barrel.

I dont know if someone actually have the same problem but

If you already add gas (i havent tried another fluid), it wont allow me to fill it anymore


Could be a conflict with Common Sense? but i have no idea. The recent update made the Common Sense bugged, which is you cant drink from any sources of water in anyway.

@Arima
Is there any context options to fill from/into barrel? Also check that you have a Funnel if you enabled this option or Rubber Hose. That should be enough. I'm using Common Sense too and for me barrel runs smoothly. In general, any mod that modifies context menu for FluidContainers may affect workability

@Hans-Landa I've uploaded a fix for this, let the Steam download a new version of mod
GigaWatte  [developer] 7 Mar @ 2:33pm 
@Arima pls try again now, with new version of mod it may be resolved
sorry for the late reply i decided to start a game for scratch because i think the error just ended up baked into my save and its gonna take me some time to go and fetch barrels again but it will be my top priority when i start a new game.

Hey I can't add any fuel to the barrel. The "add" is redded out and if I go transfer liquid menu just says can't transfer liquid.

I've put it at the bottom of the boot order still no dice.

Hi @rhinomad
"Add" option can be red by one of two conditions:
1. You dont have any proper containers in inventory that can pour fluid to barrel. This relies on zomboid internal functionality for fluid mixing.
2. A funnel is missing in your inventory or somwhere near the barrel.

ive got the same problem as him and its redded out even when i got a hose a funnel and a gas canister.
if i go to transfer fluids and drag the gas canister in manually it tells me: "cannot pour into target container"

Maybe try pick up and then place this barrel. it may be locked because of unfinished or interrupted process of pick up I suppose. Or unlocking not working while placing. I will take a look

So if i open a barrel I can add liquid, but if i pick up the barrel and place it somewhere else, i can no longer add liquid. Any ideas for a workaround? As it is any barrels i bring to my base I can't use.

Greetings, folks! So far, I've added a debug option with useful information for me. If you enable Debug Mode in the mod's sandbox variables and open the context menu on a barrel, there will be an option with a tooltip at the top of the list. Also no need to launch the game in -debug mode.

Please send me an image or the text of the tooltip. This will help me determine the right direction to look for the issue.
