Yeah don't use this mod until it gets fixed tbh. My summons constantly decides to be deleted mid fight and I have to re-summon them, but there is no keybind to open the summon UI so I must grab another summon weapon in hand and replace my weapon then take the one in the UI out

Is this mod still alive?

The mod keeps duplicating the summon items, I have like 30 already, I don't need those

very buggy mod, the items in sentry are always duplicates

For some reason, the item in the sentry slot constantly duplicates. Sometimes it just drops hundreds of the item in my inventory and on the floor. Otherwise, it just puts it in my inventory constantly. What's up with that?

With this mod, attempting to autosummon certain summons from the Calamity mod will cause this mod to resummon everything in an infinite loop, nearly once every frame.

The issue is specific to the calamity summons that place a minion above your head and limit you to one of that particular minion. EG: Deathstare Rod, Sun Spirit Staff, the various Blossom Staffs, etc.

can you make this work with perma-buff summon slots it breaks with those

i found a glitch that lets you duplicate items, so when you hold a summon item or any item that can go in the auto-summon area, if you drop it, it still lets you put it in the auto-summon area as if you were holding it, and now you have two, one on the ground and another you duplicated in the auto-summon area

Trying to do a calamity no-hit run with Nycro's Nohit Efficiency Mod and sometimes doesn't summon my summons and the weapon is hidden in the ui?

When using this mod I for some reason get multiple GUI and only one works out of the many and its annoying there's any way to fix this? I reloaded multiple times but doesn't fix the issue

Is it possible to make the gui open when a hotkey is pressed rather than when you open the equipment tab? It gets really annoying sometimes.

Hi. Me again, with a new oddity. Sorry!

Friend and I were shimmering stuff to get the permanent buffs. I threw a stack of gold worms into shimmer. Next I knew was this:
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3053148661

We're playing on a dedicated server that I host on my pc. Friend joins via my IP, and I connect as localhost.

It also duplicates a sentry when I place something, sometimes, like paintings.


Another oddity we noticed is that the pet panel UI is duplicated, and only one of them works. (Not really visible in the screenshot, as there they're still one on top of the other - they can be dragged apart.)

Sorry for not having better details.

Um.

https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3047643332
Something's still odd.

My weapon from slot 1 is still there (in the bottom line), but my shiny new drill and my stack of torches are gone.

I was going back and forth on a cart rail in cavern Hallow, letting my minions beat up stuff in hope of a Rod of Discord. I was drilling crystals while I was there anyway.

Then I noticed that it was no longer drilling at all, checked, and found this. Hm...

I did notice the other day that placing a painting landed me a sentry on the mouse, must have clicked the moment it was summoning? (Placing without autopause, from the mouse, not the hotbar.)

I was not using smartcursor this time, just autoselect (drill) and moving the mouse from crystal to crystal without letting go.

certian staffs like the blossum staff from calaity just start glitching witht the auto summon

I restarted the game, and all is fine, so no idea what happened. Maybe the bugfix removed them somehow? What if -they- had been the duplicates that shouldn't have been there? Who knows. I'm just guessing. :)

All's fine now, I bought new ones, and researched them just in case. :)

Yeah, no idea where they disappeared to. I think I meant Summoning UI, not AI, sorry for the brain glitch.

The two old one's army sentries I had there had disappeared after the game start today.

Huh?

Oops, I suddenly don't have sentries in the summoning AI. (Just noticed after not playing too long.)

Ooh, thank you! :))

Weird that this only started after the last monthly tmodloader update (or the following hotfix - I wasn't playing in the day in between).

V. 2023.10.06.1:
- Fixed issue with items being replaced if you used them while mod tried to summon.
- AKA Mod will no longer summon while using an item, so constantly swinging will prevent summoning.
- Special thanks to Mickmane for reporting the issue with reproduction steps.

The same just happened with the stack of torches instead of the pickaxe.

Yeah. 8 is phone, 9 is currently rope, 0 is Grand Design. And the other slots are in use too.

I just always have those on my 8/9/0 slots, different takes for different tastes I guess.

I do. For torches and pickaxe and axe.

Y'all use auto select?

I have the same problem as the previous commenter, except I end up with duplicate sentries. My whip and I don't know what else was replaced by my pickaxe, and a sentry was put into the inventory where slot I had the pickaxe.

Steps:
- select any item on hotbar (that you don't mind losing - it'll be replaced)
- hold autoselect (to get the pickaxe)
- hold smartcursor
- click (with active pickaxe)
- let go of autoselect and smartcursor keys
- dig a bit
- let go of mouse key (which was steering the pickaxe)
-> Find pickaxe in the hotbar slot (whatever was there is lost now)
-> Find sentry in the inventory slot where the pickaxe used to be.

My Smartcursor mode is hold.

I have vanilla ballista and fireburst sentries in the sentry summon slots.

I do not use calamity, and tried this with JUST this mod enabled, and duplicated the effect.

Wasn't there something odd about autoselect and the last tmodloader update? I wasn't playing that day, just saw comments.

Please fix this. :)

Thanks!

There seems to be a bug with this. I'm not sure if it's due to it being used with calamity, but there is some combination of keys that causes the sentry item to swap with a hotbar item. Sometimes a "shadow" version of the sentry is created in the inventory, and the item originally in the hotbar slot is deleted. The sentry does not duplicate as it disappears when attempting to put in in another inventory

nevermind, i found it

heyo, how do i take the summons out the auto summon? i put a finch staff in and im having a hard time figuring out how to take it out lol

I figured out the problem. If you disable auto summon, it seems to fix it!

There seems to be a problem with certain summons, specifically ones that stay on a character, like the deathstare rod and sun spirit staff from calamity. For some reason, whenever you put them in a slot, they constantly summon a desummon. For the sun spirit staff, it turns crazy and removes the cooldown, while the deathstare rod does nothing. Any fixes for this?

How does summoning sentries work?

Addition: It only summons two of the same after I stood around for a while (playing with dyes and costumes), long enough for the sentries to expire.

When I move around, it summons 2 different ones. And spawning on the world, it does, too.

Hi again. :)

I got rid of "infinite minions" (wanting to make it not too easy), and instead put 2 sentries into the UI. But it only ever summons the first one. How do I make it summon one of each?

Thanks! This mod is sooo useful! :)

Great mods as always Lan.

It would be fantastic if the mod saved summon window position to a file so that it retains the position across sessions. First time opening it each session, it's halfway behind inventory.

Oh, only just saw your message from back when I was probably typing.

Thanks for replying! (And again for the update. :) )

I have another issue, when I save and exit with the Summon Panel open, it is still in the game when I load the save again, and there's another for actually using it when I open the summon/pet UI.

I can only get rid of extra Summon Panel when I restart the game.

Using that mod for 'infinite' minions:
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2987553601

I just found the de-summon and other buttons, and the sentry slot, whee, thank you! :))

Um, putting a houndius shootius into the sentry slot, it keeps adding it, counting up to 'infinite' (20001). Maybe that needs a little tweaking. :))

Thanks again for the update though!

Mickmane, latest update 2023.08.17.1 should already have that? Can you confirm?

Hm, I dug out Summoner's association mod to put the combat pets into that, and now I can put them into your Auto Summon UI again. Wonder what prompted that (mod, game restart, something else).

Addition: Seems Assorted Crazy Things combat pets still don't like your Auto Summon (or the other way round.

Since the update I can't insert combat pets from these mods anymore:
Assorted Crazy Things
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2795859323
The Amulet Of Many Minions: Combat Pets!
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2565770836

Would you be willing to allow them? :)

Maybe sentries too?

Thanks for this super useful mod in any case! :)

This is incredibly helpful! :))

How can I unsummon them all at once without having to take them out one by one?

Please update this to 1.4.4, I really miss it. :)

Also shows when you hold a summon weapon on your mouse

It shows when you open the pets menu (open inventory, right side above your armour click the chain icon to show pet, light pet, mount, hook, etc.)

How to open ui?

this mod is buggy as hell

List of Calamity summons that wont work with this mod:
metastasis
midnight sun beacon
ares exoskeleton
corvid harbinger staff
cadaverous carrion
void concentration staff
spikecrag staff
plantation staff (occasionally despawns)

This mod does not play well with Stars above summon weapons. Left clicking to summon just ♥♥♥♥♥ your setup so there's no point even using them. Also, even though have minion slots guardian-type summons will just disappear forcing you to resummon them. Scroll button doesn't work on the Lan summon menu. And multiplayer, other players can't see summons. Mod is VERY promising, but it needs work.

so i downloaded this mod and i loaded my hard mode character and his summons were glitching out as if it kept trying to re-summon it then i created a new character and it works fine
