Ceramic Bucket guide for FTB Skies 2: Aero 1.0.3

Same as in the FTB Skies 2: Aero 1.10.0 guide

Ceramic Bucket is a bucket variant, so the mechanics come down to how you make it and a handful of server settings that change how it behaves. All of those settings live in [[config:config/ceramicbucket-server.toml#Balance Options.crackingTemperature]] and its neighbours in the same file.^[1]

Getting a Ceramic Bucket

First you craft an Unfired Clay Bucket. Then you fire it into a Ceramic Bucket.^[2]

The mod's own firing step is a smelting recipe.^[2]

What the pack sets in the config

Four options control how the bucket behaves. Here is what this pack sets compared with the mod defaults.^[1]

• [[config:config/ceramicbucket-server.toml#Balance Options.fishObtainingEnabled]] is false in this pack. The mod default is true, so the pack turns off obtaining fish with a Ceramic Bucket.^[1][3]
• [[config:config/ceramicbucket-server.toml#Balance Options.milkingEnabled]] is true, which matches the mod default, so you can still milk entities with the bucket.^[1][3]
• [[config:config/ceramicbucket-server.toml#Balance Options.durability]] is 0, the same as the mod default. A value of 0 deactivates durability, so the bucket does not wear out from use. The allowed range is 0 to 10,000.^[1][3]
• [[config:config/ceramicbucket-server.toml#Balance Options.crackingTemperature]] is 1,000, also the mod default. This is the minimum fluid temperature at which the bucket breaks when you empty it. The allowed range is -10,000 to 10,000.^[1][3]

Same as in the FTB Skies 2 1.22.0 guide

The Ceramic Bucket's server config has a handful of options, all under Balance Options. Only one differs from the mod default in this pack, and it's the one most likely to catch you out: fishing with the bucket is switched off.^[4]

The value this pack changed

• [[config:config/ceramicbucket-server.toml#Balance Options.fishObtainingEnabled]] is set to false in this pack, while the mod default is true. You can't scoop up fish with a Ceramic Bucket here.^[4]

Options left at the mod default

• [[config:config/ceramicbucket-server.toml#Balance Options.milkingEnabled]] is true, the same as the mod default, so you can still milk entities with the Ceramic Bucket.^[4]
• [[config:config/ceramicbucket-server.toml#Balance Options.durability]] is 0, the same as the mod default. A value of 0 turns durability off, so the bucket doesn't wear out from use. The allowed range is 0 to 10,000.^[4]
• [[config:config/ceramicbucket-server.toml#Balance Options.crackingTemperature]] is 1000, the same as the mod default. This is the minimum fluid temperature at which the bucket breaks when you empty it. The allowed range is -10,000 to 10,000.^[4]
