🖥️ GUI Guide
Cobblebase adds a tabbed management interface to the Pasture Block. This guide covers all four tabs and how to use them effectively.
Opening the GUI
- Right-click any Pasture Block to open the standard Cobblemon pasture interface.
- Click the "Cobblebase" button to open the management screen.
The GUI uses a dark theme with 0.75x font scaling for a compact, information-dense layout.
🔒 Pasture Lock: Only the owner of the pasture can open the Cobblebase GUI. Other players cannot access or modify your base assignments.
🎮 Skills Tab
The Skills tab is your primary management interface. It shows every Pokemon in the pasture along with their available jobs.
Layout
Each row displays:
- Pokemon sprite -- top-aligned icon for the species
- Pokemon name and level -- displayed next to the sprite
- Aura icon -- if the Pokemon has a buff skill, a small icon appears between the name and skill buttons
- Idle button -- a narrow button in its own column that sets the Pokemon to idle mode (does nothing, only passive buffs run)
- Skill buttons -- color-coded buttons for each available skill, with proficiency stars ★★★★★
🔇 Mute Button
A mute toggle button appears in the top-right corner of the GUI. Click to switch between:
- 🔊 -- Pokemon cry sounds enabled (default volume: 30)
- 🔇 -- Pokemon cry sounds muted
Cry sounds are rate-limited to a maximum of 1 cry per 60 seconds per Pokemon, even when unmuted.
Row Height
Rows use dynamic height based on how many skills a Pokemon has:
- Pokemon with few skills get compact rows (24px)
- Pokemon with many skills get taller rows (42px)
Assigning Skills
Idle mode: Click the "Idle" button to put the Pokemon in idle mode. The Pokemon does nothing -- only passive buffs continue to run.
Manual mode: Click any specific skill button to assign that job. The button highlights to show the active assignment.
Skill assignments persist across sessions and server restarts.
Skill Button Colors
Skills are color-coded by category:
- 🌾 Gathering skills use harvest/nature colors
- ⚔️ Combat skills use red tones
- 💚 Support skills use healing/green colors
- 🌍 Environmental skills use elemental colors (🔥 fire, 💧 water, ❄️ ice)
- 🌟 Legendary skills use special/gold colors
✨ Buffs Tab
The Buffs tab shows all currently active jobs and effects for this pasture.
What It Shows
- Every Pokemon currently assigned to a job
- The job name and category, color-coded
- Proficiency stars (★☆☆☆☆ to ★★★★★) for each active skill
- Active buff effects and their status
This tab gives you an at-a-glance overview of your entire base's productivity.
📜 Logs Tab
The Logs tab shows a chronological activity log of everything your Pokemon have been doing.
Columns
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Time | When the event occurred |
| Pokemon | Which Pokemon performed the action |
| Action | What job was executed |
| Item | What was found/produced (if applicable) |
| Rarity | Color-coded rarity tier |
Rarity Color Coding
| Color | Rarity |
|---|---|
| Gray | Common |
| Green | Uncommon |
| Blue | Rare |
| Gold | Ultra Rare |
Filtering
Use the filter buttons at the top to show only events above a certain rarity:
- All -- show everything
- Uncommon+ -- hide common events
- Rare+ -- show only rare and ultra rare
- Ultra Rare -- show only the rarest finds
Storage
- Up to 100 entries per pasture are stored
- Entries older than 24 hours are automatically cleaned up
- Logs persist in
cobblebase_logs.jsonin the world folder
Note: Passive buff applications do not appear in the log to avoid clutter.
🧭 Discovery Tab
The Discovery tab (also called Scout tab) shows permanent discoveries made by Scout Pokemon.
What It Shows
A scrollable table with:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Type | Icon indicating Pokemon, Structure, or Biome |
| Name | The name of the discovery |
| Coordinates | X, Y, Z location (clickable) |
| Discovered By | Which Pokemon made the discovery |
| When | Timestamp of the discovery |
Filter Buttons
- All -- show all discoveries
- Structures -- show only structure discoveries
- Biomes -- show only biome discoveries
Discovery Types
| Type | Unlocked At | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Wild Pokemon | ★☆☆☆☆+ | Any wild Pokemon in range |
| Structures | ★★★☆☆+ | Villages, Mineshafts, Ruined Portals, Shipwrecks, Ocean Ruins |
| Biomes | ★★★★☆+ | Mushroom Fields, Ice Spikes, Cherry Grove, Deep Dark, Lush Caves |
Persistence
- Wild Pokemon sightings auto-expire after 30 minutes
- Structure and biome discoveries are permanent
- All discoveries are saved to
cobblebase_discoveries.jsonin the world folder - Chunk-based deduplication prevents the same discovery from being reported twice
💡 Tips
- Use Idle sparingly. Idle mode does nothing -- only set it if you want to pause a Pokemon's job while keeping passive buffs active.
- Check Logs regularly. Ultra Rare drops can be easy to miss if you are not watching.
- Filter by Rare+ to quickly spot valuable finds without scrolling through common results.
- Multiple Scouts with different proficiency levels can discover different things in the same area.
- The Buffs tab is read-only. To change assignments, switch to the Skills tab.
- 🔇 Mute if needed. If cry sounds are distracting, use the mute button in the top-right corner.
- 🔒 Your base is safe. Only you (the pasture owner) can open and modify your Cobblebase GUI.
