Brilliant mod! Honestly love this. I'm also a modder, been trying to figure out how to generate an item through pulling up grass, such as the occasional slug or a "plant fiber" item that can be used for firestarting or making twine. Any ideas on how that might work that also work in multiplayer? haha

lol is right. I have a comment in the code here: "Having a hand scythe will reduce the Remove Grass time by 40% - 85% depending on the short blade level."

lol a raison. J’ai un commentaire dans le code ici : « Avoir une faux à main réduira le temps d’élimination de l’herbe de 40% à 85% selon le niveau de la lame courte. »

@RicksMLC J'ai démarré une nouvelle partie, je te tiens au courant !
Je me demande si on passe pas plus de temps tester les mods plus qu'a jouer réellement lol !

@Pacifick No worries, mate.

It might be a compatibility issue. I know of at least one mod, Primitive Survival mod, which overrides methods this mod uses, therefore is not compatible.

Il peut s’agir d’un problème de compatibilité. Je connais au moins un mod, le mod Primitive Survie, qui remplace les méthodes utilisées par ce mod, n’est donc pas compatible.

@RicksMLC, cela dit, j'ai un bon nombre de mods qui ne fonctionne pas sur cette sauvegarde, j'imagine qui me faudra recommencer une nouvelle partie... ;)
Donc je garde, on verra, sauf si la 42 sort ! :)
Merci pour ton travail !!

@RicksMLC je ne vois aucune différence, j'en suis à J+90 jours (+/-) avec des compétences assez élevées dans tous les domaine.

@Paciick Right-click on the ground with grass on it and select "Remove Grass". If you have a "hand scythe" in your inventory your character will automatically equip it in your primary hand and the Remove Grass action will be faster. The speed bonus is proportional to your "Short Blade" skill.
Bing Translate:
Faites un clic droit sur le sol avec de l’herbe dessus et sélectionnez « Enlever l’herbe ». Si vous avez une « faux à main » dans votre inventaire, votre personnage l’équipera automatiquement dans votre main principale et l’action Retirer l’herbe sera plus rapide. Le bonus de vitesse est proportionnel à votre compétence « Lame courte ».

Comment c'est censé fonctionner, quel action à effectuer exactement ????
J'ai un sac, une faussil, et ensuite ?

Will do ))) and thanks

@BlackWater821 I have not changed it since January 2023, so it should still work. It works in multiplayer, but if you find any issues please let me know.
BlackWater821 May 15, 2024 @ 1:20am 
This mod still working good? Multiplayer?
RicksMLC  [author] Apr 3, 2023 @ 11:32pm 
Note that the Primitive Survival mod overrides methods this mod uses, therefore is not compatible.

You are too kind!
RicksMLC  [author] Jan 27, 2023 @ 5:28am 
@Agitatio - at long last your wish has been granted :) The hand scythe is now auto-equipped if needed, and all player thoughts removed as they are now redundant.
RicksMLC  [author] Jan 1, 2023 @ 3:31pm 
@Agitatio: I have updated so it now has a sandbox option to disable thoughts. The option can be overridden by editing the mods/GrassCuttingWithTool/RemoveGrassWithTool.ini file.
Agitatio Dec 18, 2022 @ 6:41am 
Just wish you could disable messages and make character equip scythe if you had one on you. Very neat mod nonetheless.
RicksMLC  [author] Oct 27, 2022 @ 7:54pm 
@Oguri Kyousuke it does not need a new save - the code only uses a check on your equipped item for the base game hand scythe. Are you getting an error message, or some other indication it is not working?
If the mod is on, the player will state the first time he/she uses the option "Remove Grass" he/she will say "I wish I had a Hand Scythe" the first two times you try on that save. After that it is silent, otherwise it would be too annoying :)
Oguri Kyousuke Oct 25, 2022 @ 2:25am 
Doesn't work for me for some reason. Does this one require a new game?
Tahvohck Sep 14, 2022 @ 8:43am 
Awesome!
RicksMLC  [author] Sep 14, 2022 @ 5:36am 
@Tahvohck It should be fixed now. The item type "Gravelbag" does not have the getCategories() method - funny that there is no skill that applies for using gravel bags :-). It turned out I did not need getCategories() anyway, so it now should work. Thank you very much for bringing the bug to my attention.
Tahvohck Sep 14, 2022 @ 2:52am 
Strange! I wonder why, ha! Well, at least you identified the issue.
RicksMLC  [author] Sep 14, 2022 @ 12:43am 
Wow - gravel bag primary equipped did crash it! Ok this is fun :)
Tahvohck Sep 13, 2022 @ 11:26pm 
I doubt it's that. I'm playing in English, however.
RicksMLC  [author] Sep 13, 2022 @ 11:19pm 
@Tahvohck Thank you for checking it out again. I will try with a gravel bag, but going by the code it should not make any difference what the type is in the hand, so long as it is not a scythe. Also, which language are you using just to check if it is an Internationalisation issue.
Tahvohck Sep 13, 2022 @ 11:06pm 
Odd. I can't replicate it either. I'll re-add it to the server and see what happens, will update again if the error pops back up. Honestly, it might have had something to do with a safehouse.
Tahvohck Sep 13, 2022 @ 10:22pm 
I'm on 41.73 and I had a gravel bag in my hand. I'll see if I can reproduce it, I currently have the mod uninstalled. Will get back to you when I do!
RicksMLC  [author] Sep 13, 2022 @ 10:09pm 
Testing on 42.76(unstable): Testing with Remove Grass (RG):
RG with not-sythe(frypan): PASS
RG without any primary: PASS
RG with scythe in secondary, frypan in primary: PASS
RG with scythe in secondary, empty primary: PASS
RG with scythe in primary, frypan in secondary: PASS
RG with scythe: PASS
RG with scythe level 10: PASS
So these cases pass and no errors in the error log.
@Tahvohck if you can reproduce it and/or get the error log please let me know, also what level short blade were you?
RicksMLC  [author] Sep 13, 2022 @ 9:19pm 
@Tahvohck I will check it later today - thank you for letting me know there may be an issue.
Tahvohck Sep 12, 2022 @ 10:27pm 
This currently causes errors when trying to cut grass without a scythe. It may be that I had something in my hand that WASN'T a scythe.
RicksMLC  [author] Jul 26, 2022 @ 3:23pm 
Thank you @橘子 for bringing the bug to my attention. I have uploaded a new version which should fix the problem.
RicksMLC  [author] Jul 26, 2022 @ 2:20pm 
Yep - using non-English fails the check for the tool... will fix soon.
RicksMLC  [author] Jul 26, 2022 @ 2:02pm 
Hmm.... I suspect it is a language issue, as I use the Name of the tool in this first version. I will see if I can make it language independent
橘子 Jul 26, 2022 @ 8:27am 
I have the scythe in my main hand, but it still keeps reminding me that I don't have a scythe in my hand. Where am I doing wrong?
