Compacting drawers no longer work

[Wishbone1977]

You can put osmium in a compacting drawer, but it won't compact it. If you put ingots in, you get a drawer with ingots in the top slot, and the two bottom slots empty. If you put a block in, you get a drawer with blocks in the top slot and the two bottom slots empty. The same goes for nuggets.

The crafting recipes for converting osmium between nuggets, ingots and blocks are all present and work as expected.

Version: 5.2

Correction: Compacting drawers seemingly no longer work with any metals. Drawers that were assigned before the pack update are fine, but I cannot assign new ones without running into the issue described above, even using metals I already have in correctly assigned compacting drawers, meaning the compacting drawers are now essentially regular drawers.

I don't remember when I last assigned a new metal to a compacting drawer, so I don't know if the issue was introduced between 3.0 and 5.1, or between 5.1 and 5.2.

As far as I can tell, the Storage Drawers mod is still the same version (1.19-11.1.2) as it was in version 3.0 of the pack, so the issue must be caused by something else. It's hard to tell since I don't know where the code for the pack lives. It doesn't seem to be in this repository, since nothing has been committed here since May.

i can only say same problem, has far i can tell through my testing its a Problem with Storage Drawers and Game Stage, the problem seams to get in after the 5.0 update. in 3.0 was all good

I just did a small test. I started the game and placed down 3 compacting drawers. Then I tried the following:

1. Block of ruby. Compacting drawer works as expected, assigning the top slot for ruby blocks and the bottom-left slot for rubies with the bottom-right slot empty.

2. Double compressed cobblestone. Works as expected. Top slot is double compressed, bottom-left is single compressed and bottom-right is cobblestone.

3. Tried a bunch of versions of a bunch of different metals. In all cases, the item I used (nugget, ingot or block) got assigned to the top slot with both bottom slots empty.

4. Exited the game and checked the log. Nothing was logged between startup and shutdown, so no help there.

Without access to the latest source there's nothing more I can do, really.

I can confirm that this issue is fixed in version 5.3.

I would still like to point out that not using the official repository for the releases of the pack seems counter productive. Community members might be able to help a lot more with various issues if this repository was kept up to date.

Reopening this so others who may run into the same problem can see it. If the pack author wants it closed he can do it himself.
