      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

[B75][Bug] Faulty liquid metal overflow in firepit

2 posts in this topic

I encountered the following issue twice yesterday. I was able to reproduce it at will.

Bug Description:

When handling liquid metal in the firepit, overflow to a second empty mold does not work if the current target mold is in the righthand output slot.

Reproduction Steps:

- Smelt ore in the firepit. Two empty ceramic molds are placed in the output slots to receive the metal.

- Molten metal is first placed into the left of the two empty molds.

- After smelting enough ore, the left mold fills up and any excess overflows into the right mold. Working as intended.

- Remove filled mold from the left slot, insert new empty mold into the left slot.

- Continue smelting ore.

- Molten metal is placed into the right of the two molds, because it already has something in it.

- After smelting enough ore, the right mold fills up but any excess does not overflow into the left mold and is instead lost. This is the bug.

This might not seem very dire, but it is fairly annoying because you cannot insert half-filled molds into the output slots even if the metal is liquid. This means that as soon as you get overflow into the righthand mold, you need to remove both molds, and because you cannot insert the partially filled righthand mold into the left output slot, you need to cook it so it empties its few drops of metal into a new empty mold you hopefully placed into the lefthand slot before you can proceed.

The issue is especially noticable if you try combine many partially filled molds after parallel-smelting in multiple campfires; I lost half an ingot's worth of the very first metal I ever found from combining two three-quarters filled molds in this way.

It's likely that instead of putting the overfill in the mold opposite to the one already filled it always tries to put it in the right hand one. This is an easy fix. If anything I might even decompile the code and explain the fix for ease of fixing. (when I get home in 1 h)
