Piped cooking pot usage?
Perhaps Im using it wrong, or not understand it.
We placed it down, have junction and tap near it, it says "powered" and can light the fire. But it will not supply its own water. It works as a normal pot, we must put in waterskin/jugs to get it to make anything.
Am I perhaps using it incorrectly or have it setup incorrect?

At the time this was the implementation I was able to work with: Your first set of waterskins had to be filled, but when they are used they should get refilled. Unfortunately for servers this doesn't seem to always happen.

I now have inventory component exposure to the blueprint system though so more than likely what I will do is passively refill any waterskins in the cooking pot's inventory. I would need to replace all cooking pot recipes to fully remove the dependence of water.

I don't think I will be able to implement this functionality this weekend, but possibly next weekend when I have more free time. :)

I can't get it powered. Had terrible trouble with the Plumbed Cooking Pot :rshocked:
Updating the mod files server side fixed a lot of problems but i still can't get it to work.
The mod itself seems to wreak havoc on other mods too so i've disabled everything else, unfortunately.

Would really appreciate a short video walkthrough on how this is supposed to be set up!

I got this to work once, but when I went to make a second at my next base the junction isn't showing up in the smithy. Guessing since the latest update?

Also, about the waterskins not refilling, I had that problem but water jars worked fine.

Update, it is now in the smithy. It may have been I needed to relog into my server, or one of the admins updated the mod, or there was a server restart. Unable to confirm what fixed it, but it IS working for me now.

When adding a mod, any mod that adds to a smithy has to be picked up and replaced to have the new engrams associated with it.

That wasnt it. The mod was not just added. We had been using it for a while, and had previously made the Junction before. I was on a new Survivor, and had just learned the Engram for it, but was not showing up in the Smithy. After I logged off for the night, and logged back in the next day, I could then see it in the Smithy.

Hope this better explanation of events clears up your confusion :)

It is working now, so I'm not sure if anything is broken... as it could be server side issue. Who knows at this point. Only way to trouble shoot it would be to make another new Survivor.. and I don't want to have to get the levels again.
