arboreal extractor issues

[median sparrow]

I'm 99.9% sure this is a thermal issue and not a KJS issue,

unfortunately it seems like the arboreal extractor itself short circuits when checking what tree it's extracting from.

from what I can tell:

• it checks the type of log first,
• then if there's a recipe for that log and the leaf that is attached,
• then if the leaf is natural
• might check this before the recipe, idk.. not important..
• then completely disregards what kind of leaf it is and picks the first recipe that uses that log.
• (first recipe that isn't hard coded)
• I figured this out because I accidentally made oak trees produce sap instead of resin, and then every oak tree produced sap.

seems like the devs of thermal didn't expect people to want to add other trees to the arboreal extractor..

if anybody can provide any insight as to what's happening though that would be great

[bitter sinew]

yeah the arboreal extractor algorithm sucks

the leaves field in the recipe is purely for display in jei

[median sparrow]

might be a stupid question but is there something similar in another mod

[bitter sinew]

nope

[median sparrow]

ah..

[bitter sinew]

well, it might be used for checking the tree, but it isnt used to find the recipe

[median sparrow]

yeah

thats.. very unfortunate..

[bitter sinew]

themal has some weird limits/coding choices in some places

[median sparrow]

it's a pretty old mod I'd imagine theres some funky business going on

lot of retrofitting

[bitter sinew]

its been completely rewritten since 1.12

[median sparrow]

oh interesting

[bitter sinew]

like most mods

[median sparrow]

and its still garbage

welp

thanks anyways

[bitter sinew]

its a great mod, till you try to customise it

then it falls to pieces

[median sparrow]

exactly
