The draw plate can be made at the primitive forge tho i pretty sure but yeah the prob is just that you wire to advance past primitive

This recipe is only for the Advanced forge.

That's a good point, but you still need a draw plate which I believe can only be crafted in an Advanced Furnace.

I'll look into this more.

This doesnt seem to appear in the primitive forge, could you make it available for primitive stuff? We need to wire to build wooden bucket to build simple/advanced.

how exactly do you forge the wire? do you need an advanced forge?

Ahh my bad, I looked at the recipe file and this is for blacksmithing.

Hello, may I ask how do you craft it? Do you need a magazine or recipe? It doesn't show in my crafting menu is why I'm asking. Thank you.

I believe IsExclusive means that it only takes one of the listed ingredients on that line instead of all of them.

I found it by basically searching flags and seeing all the possible listings and how they where used.

Some stuff uses common [tags] shared by items instead of IsExclusive lists.

For example, you can make ANYTHING accepted by the various medium steel smelting recipes by adding the tag 'SmeltableSteelMedium' without having to edit the recipe, since the recipe looks for 'SmeltableSteelMedium' tags.

Also, what does that IsExclusive flag do? PZ Wiki literally has it listed as unknown.

@Black_moons

That is GOLD. I have no idea how you found that, because I searched high and low after you mentioned it being possible to accept 3 different items in 1 recipe line. Thank you for the input, I've updated the mod. This is what I wanted all along. I figured the recipe for the charcoal burning pile would have it since the log coal recipe included branches, but i couldnt for the life of me find it. Kudos dude, you're the goat

Here is the recipe line iv figured out for using all 3 sizes of bar of both types:
item 1 [Base.IronBar;Base.SteelBar;2:Base.IronBarHalf;2:Base.SteelBarHalf;4:Base.IronBarQuarter;4:Base.SteelBarQuarter] mode:destroy flags[IsExclusive],

Its even possible to make one recipe that accepts all 3 in different quantities if you look at the vanilla crafting files (mainly for smelting)

QOL suggestion: Just change the recipe for quarter/half bar to require 4/2 of them and output a full wire roll always.

The biggest wire sink in the game is making barbed wire fences (For cosmetic/farming reasons) and that requires full rolls.

@JT1527

Hell yeah :D
Thanks for taking my suggestion, happy to help :)

yay

@cashew

That is a fantastic idea, i didn't even know draw plates were in the game. I've updated the mod to reflect this in each of the wire crafts. About the wire consolidation, I just tested it and yeah that actually worked. thank you very much for the feedback

Also I'm pretty sure you can consolidate wire by holding one roll in each hand first

Great mod, super useful, but shouldn't the recipe use a draw plate as a tool? That's what you use to make wire irl and it would be nice to give the item a use.
