Barrels refuse to face west..? I've got zero clue about this one. Annoying as hell though. I've attached the log and a screenshot to show it off.

Edit: Upon further investigation, It seems to be a texture issue, still no clue what causes it though.

Problem is that I am unable to recreate. This could potentially be an issue with caching where your barrels rotated this way for some reason are taking the east facting model, but could you check in F3 that you are seeing them properly set to facing west similar to this screenshot

and actually regarding the edit - what kind of texture issue do you mean? like that the barrel is functional on this side - for example shows display items on the west - but its model just isn't rotated properly?

I've attached the F3 image as well as a completely decluttered screenshot with an upgrade in hand. Hopefully this gives a bit more clarity.

yeah so this definitely looks like an issue in caching - there's a bit of calculation that compiles a what is supposed to be a unique key for every combination of render properties that the barrel can go into, but in this case it looks like rotation part of that calculation produces same result for east and west rotations. I saw something like that in the past and thought the fix for that fixed everything (and it seems to in packs that I play), perhaps some mod is changing the data this calculation relies on. I can look at changing that calculation to work off of different data if possible I will see.

I have just pushed a new version of Sophisticated Storage which updates the caching of the barrel models and should hopefully fix your issue, but because I wasn't able to recreate it's hard to tell if it's caused by the rotation issue I experienced and fixed in 1.21.5 (and applied that fix to 1.20 now) so please let me know if this release fixed it for you.

Issue looks to be solved, cheers!

thanks for confirming it's solved!
