default weight for blocks + exceptions

[lofty jasper]

trying to set a weight for every block, but for certain blocks the weight is different for balancing reasons. vs additions overrides datapacks, making this problematic

really need help here

[sacred canopy]

What?

[lofty jasper]

let me explain this a little better: im trying to set a weight for every block, but for certain blocks the weight is different for balancing reasons

[sacred canopy]

Ok?

Your options are vs addition and a data pack

[lofty jasper]

Which vs additions doesnt work for

and a datapack to my knowledge requires you to write out everything manually

[sacred canopy]

Figure out what the default is for the most blocks you want

Use vs addition for that

Then do the rest manually in a data pack

[lofty jasper]

No no you donjt understand

the datapacks are overriden by vs additions

[sacred canopy]

No they aren’t

You need to set the priority to 101 I believe

The vs addition config has a “default mass priority” setting I think

[lofty jasper]

Uh elaborate here

Where am i doing that

[sacred canopy]

In the vs addition server config

Or set the priority in your data pack

[lofty jasper]

Hm ok. If I'm setting the weight of something, should I put the file under vs and vs_mass or just the mod's specific data folder

Just to double check

[sacred canopy]

Up to you I believe

[lofty jasper]

Ive tried both a while back

Yeah alright

Ill let you know how it goes. Im goonna try it rq

[lofty jasper]

I'm using ver 0.0.6f for vs additions, I don't theres a default mass priority setting. (it's an older version to avoid conflicts with tallyho)

[sacred canopy]

Well then just try making the data pack priority high

[lofty jasper]

I'm pretty inexperienced with datapacks, so I dunno how

[lofty jasper]

yeah so i set it to load last

still dont work unfortunately

[sacred canopy]

its in the mass file

you specify mass, but you can also specify priority per entry

default is 100 i believe, so higher than that

[lofty jasper]

ah ok

[lofty jasper]

would it look like this?

[sacred canopy]

yes?

not sure about capital P

[lofty jasper]

will try

yeah @sacred canopy doesnt seem to work unfortunately

[sacred canopy]

did you try lowercase p

https://wiki.valkyrienskies.org/wiki/Modifying_Block_Properties just checked le wiki and it seems to be lowercase

also you might need higher than 101 idk

it seems mass needs to be all lowercase too

maybe thats the issue

[lofty jasper]

yes

[lofty jasper]

ah

i removed vs additions, i forgot about talllyho's default weight

[lofty jasper]

i copied this all directly from files in vs_mass so idk what thats about

nvm im a retard

i dunno where that popped along, i made this datapack a while back

[lofty jasper]

yeah seems to still not work unfortunately

even withotui vs additions tallyho is fat

[sacred canopy]

what priority did you try?

[lofty jasper]

tried 101
