TarExtractor

Adds a buildable Tar Extractor that passively collects Tar from Plains tar pits.

How it works

The Tar Extractor works like the Sap Extractor, but for tar pits instead of Ancient Roots:

  • Place it inside a tar pit (it also works on drained pits). Outside a tar pit the placement ghost turns red and a message tells you why.
  • It produces 1 Tar every 60 seconds and holds up to 200 Tar.
  • Interact with it to collect the stored Tar. It drops next to the extractor.
  • Progress is saved on the piece, so it keeps filling up while you are away.

Building it

Find it in the Hammer's Crafting tab. It needs a Workbench nearby and the same materials as the Sap Extractor:

| Material | Amount |

| --------------- | ------ |

| Yggdrasil wood | 10 |

| Black metal | 5 |

| Dvergr extractor | 1 |

Configuration

| Setting | Default | Description |

| ---------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------- |

| Seconds Per Tar | 60 | Seconds it takes to produce 1 Tar. |

| Max Tar | 200 | Maximum amount of Tar one extractor can hold. |

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
