What's your mod list, and are you in MP?

uhm the cactus slime is really glitchy and is covering my whole screen when i wake him up. Like when he is woken up my whole screen turns into black and glitchy idk how to explain this

Good news! I found a solution for the problem.

Bad news. It involves cutting out the hill the Cactus House generates on.

Ok, I found something bizarre:

The guide does indeed seem to frequently not spawn in when starting a new world. Additionally, broken copies of the cactus house can be found on these worlds. Sometimes however, worlds will generate as intended and the Guide will spawn in as well. There seems to be a correlation, but I don't know the cause.

Weird. Gonna have to test and see this for myself.

sucks because i like this mod because its just a neat addition to my worlds

for some reason whenever i use this mod now the guide doesn't spawn on world gen. and i have tried just using this mod and it still happens

It's my first time ever doing worldgen. This mod was made to get myself to experiment.

the desert structure looks so last minute lol

Ok, thanks!

Oh yeah; there is actually an update for the mod in the works. It's just slow as it involves some spriting, and I am busy with college and my job.

yeah probably, ill let you know if i find a direct source for the issue

Couldn't say. Might be something with Calamity or one of its addons that messed with the boss, given those mods tend to include global changes to enemies/bosses.

this is the modpack the mod glitched out on, not sure why though because literally everything else from the mod worked perfectly (including the sleeping boss)

es compatible con thorium y remnants?

Can't do a whole lot of MP testing myself (save for opening the mod on a server and seeing if anything glitches out), but this is the first time I have heard of this issue.

Bizarre. What mods were you playing with?

the miniboss sprite seems to be glitched. was playing in multiplayer and the slime miniboss' sprite was larger than the screen

es compatible con remnants?

It's a theme used exclusively for this mod. I don't think it is posted online anywhere.

also where is the theme of it from? can't find it

i like the mega cactus slime, it's a fun fight ngl and it's cute when sleeping

Idk if I will add another miniboss to this mod, but I know I wanna add some more hardmode content eventually. Sorry about no major updates btw. It's been demotivation, followed by school and Deltarune once I started getting a drive to make stuff again.

As an idea for the hardmode desert...
Maybe u could add a "Graboid" or Mongolian Death Worm looking miniboss?
A Giant Egyptian Cobra would also be sick

It spawns naturally on the Desert Surface during the day. Just search around.

How to spawn the miniboss?, can you add something for boss check list

@Big Man Brimbo Question: was it only the Sand Shaker that you couldn't see? I am looking through my code to try and find possible solutions to the issues you described.

Never got to test the mod in MP, so there is probably some issues with it. I can look into trying to fix some issues.

Love this mod!! adds a nice touch of flavor to the dessert but it seems a little jank in multiplayer like i think it may have been my internet when the slime boss was jittery but I definitely think that not being able to see my friend use stuff like the sand shaker was unintentional lol

awesome mod, i think a giant snake boss could fit well

Yeah. It drops stuff related to the Gastropods and Pixies.

Is the Colorful Cactus supposed to drop gel?

JDE shall never surpass JNE

Yeah. Been waiting on someone else to finish up sprites for a new worldgen addition before I add new content, but I may release another patch soon to clean up more minor issues and bugs.

Ah ok. I'm glad to see that this mod still has plans because small mods like these are always really fun and cute.

@Venemous Scrimbly: good catch! Didn't notice that. Will probably include that in an upcoming post.

@Unbreakabro: I probably won't make it a hardmode upgrade, given what the hardmode Desert has already. I do intend to add to the Desert in hardmode, but not in that way. As for spawnrates, the Cactus Slime has a decently high spawnrate in new worlds, but that spawnrate drops dramatically once defeated. It only has a couple basic drops, so I felt having it continuously spawn in frequently would be annoying.

Just a suggestion but I think it would be cool if you gave the cactus slime boss some post wall of flesh properties and buffs like the Giant Clam from Calamity.

Also out of curiosity what is the spawn rate for this guy? I've only seen him once but luckily it was early on so it was fun and well paced.

The cactus Lamp breaks tiles such as pots and grass, I think it'd be better for that to be fixed (assuming that's unintentional) cause it's pretty annoying

damn

I dunno.

is it compatible with calamity fables and spirit mod/spirit reforged?

Remnants mod compatibility :skull:

Nuuuuuuu. ;-;

Remnants mod compatibility?

bro fixed the worst place

Ok, it is fixed.

Fix banner names please

good

yet another desert mod lol

Hey, man, I made a Chinese localization mod posted it on Creative Workshop!

Might drop the discord
