Visual Studio is quality software

I close it and say DONT SAVE

and what does it do?

Saves it

lost 1 hour of work

[analog radish]

Oof

[solid pivot]

Visual Studio is doing Visual Studio things

Software is going to shit for the last 2 years sadly

Still its the best IDE for C#

Some would say Rider but well

They dont know shit

Just kidding

Use the IDE you prefer

This is btw the new help command

it lists all commands in a scrollable list

thats btw where you see the XP

Would you prefer a shop with a menu like this where you can actually increase and decrease amounts of stuff you want to buy and then select "buy" to buy multiple items at once?

[pale solar]

actually really like the clean look tbh 👍

[analog radish]

Yep

[solid pivot]

So I put this on my to do for 1.1

[solid pivot]

Wait... MoreCompany doesnt work in LAN mode? o.O

[analog radish]

Oof

I dont know

[solid pivot]

Only mod I have installed is MoreCompany, still there is an error. Ooooof

Wont be able to test it then for compability sadly

[analog radish]

Ouch :c

I'll ask this In the MC server

[solid pivot]

Can I play with myself in online mode like with 10 connections?

For what do I have a RTX 4090 if I cant play with myself with 10 instances of the game

[rapid hollow]

yup

[solid pivot]

Dunno why tbh

So well...

I probably will add bigger lobbies in 1.1 too :3

[analog radish]

Ooh

[rapid hollow]

what abt biggerlobby

[plush fern]

Bigger lobby and latecompany are both buggy when it comes to desync. I had to remove them cause they kept making flooded planets imemdiately start submerged almost entirely in water upon landing.

[solid pivot]

LateCompany is very weird

And I will never be compatible with it

The mod itself is broken af

[plush fern]

Very true

[solid pivot]

Sadly it isnt very easy to let players join later :/

The game is heavily dependent on the first lever pull to close the lobby

[rapid hollow]

thought that was a vanilla issue?...

[solid pivot]

Thats why it says "Start game" at the first time

[rapid hollow]

i saw it being discussed on zeekers' main server

[solid pivot]

Desyncs are to be expected because of the games codebase :D

[plush fern]

It can occur in vanilla but those mods guarantee the desync that causes that WILL occur for flooded planets.

It's like choosing whether you'd like a 5% chance your planet will be atlantis or a 100% chance xD

[rapid hollow]

btw does anyone know if shotguns going off by themselves is a vanilla feature

cause safety is wonky clientside

[plush fern]

I'm pretty sure that's why they have a safety feature tbh

[solid pivot]

I don't really understand what the problem about increasing the lobby size exactly is tbh

Seems pretty easy

The UI stuff is a pain

I think some enemies have 4 in their logic for player count

[tropic frigate]

spaghetti moment

[solid pivot]

stuff like that

besides that its very easy to make the lobby size bigger

This screams for a Transpiler. Both bigger lobby mods just replace the method

copy pasting the decompiled code into a prefix...

Instead of just transpiling that 4 to a StartOfRound.Instance.allPlayerScripts.length

There is even a shorthand MSIL OpCode for the length of an array.... LdLen

Just do a Ldsfld on StartOfRound.Instance, then Ldfld on allPlayerScripts and then ldlen

done

well... oof. oof. oof. let me think

frickit

Ill do it

1.0 will have bigger lobbies integrated

Thats the one last thing I will put into initial release

It wont show on endscreens etc. Thats something for later

But at least you can play with more than 4 players

I mean there is a lot of places I have to look into

But at least the chance for the bigger lobby size in my mod to be buggy is very very small :)

I mean, the name of my mod implies that stuff like that should be integrated

I am so happy when I can finally reveal the name :3

[analog radish]

We'll be waiting for the reveal

[solid pivot]

And just so less people fear transpilers

Thats it

Thats bigger lobbies

Applying this everywhere where there is a i < 4 when accessing allPlayerScripts

Bigger Lobby should basically be finished

Testing it soon, just checking if everything should be working

Opening the game 5 times takes some time

[solid pivot]

Dont care :D

But thanks for asking

[solid pivot]

👀

[solid pivot]

Working on the audio mixer. oof

Done

32 players will be supported

[analog radish]

Cool!

[solid pivot]

And btw

Merry christmas!

[analog radish]

Merry christmas!

[solid pivot]

Adding a scrollbar to the voice thingy because thats the bare minimum for bigger lobbies

[analog radish]

Cool!

[solid pivot]

And now its also looking good

[analog radish]

Yep

[solid pivot]

Working btw

Watching fireworks with myself

Oh and yea

my lobby works with LAN

Firewooorks

[analog radish]

Wow, cool!

[solid pivot]

And all of that in a small package of 342 lines of code :D

With IL patching instead of overwrites

And after release I will rework the endscreen UI

I need to test with 6 players tho

But PC goes sloowwww af

[naive talon]

yeah that shit happens to me with a flash light toggle button. :V

oh hey, survival kit.

ah yes. the suicide command. quick restart mod.

[solid pivot]

MoreCompany is only needed for cosmetics which are incompatible with clothing anyway :P

6 players :D

[naive talon]

not sure what I'm looking at here. are you playing with 6 windows of yourself? O.o

[solid pivot]

Of course

I have to test it

[naive talon]

thought you had some friends to test with? or are you the only friend you need?

[solid pivot]

its 7AM here

My friends cant test with me the whole day

And night

Especially not on christmas :D

Saw some weird bugs happening tho with the inventory. Not sure what the problem is yet

[analog radish]

Oof

[solid pivot]

Ah, outdated code not working properly any longer. Needs some refactoring

But first I'll sleep

[grim drift]

With the perk system will we be allowed to configure what perks are available and the maximum tier they can be levelled to? I imagine some people I play with will only want a barebones version of the levelling system but want to experience the other features

[solid pivot]

Yes, everything is configurable

adjustable

tweakable

even vanilla items

[grim drift]

That's brilliant, thank you for the response

[solid pivot]

Imagine this mod as MoreCompany + MikesTweaks + Perk System + New Items + F for flashlight (best version of it I saw so far) in one package

[grim drift]

Also sleep well and Merry Christmas :]

[solid pivot]

You can even deactivate all perks and only work with the base values for sprint speed etc.

to just adjust the base values

[grim drift]

Yeah, looking forward to being able to dump a good amount of mods for this one. As long as it's all modular that's fine with me

[solid pivot]

You can also deactivate all new items, the perk system entirely and just use the F button thingie and a bigger lobby :D

And you dont need to share your config. You open up a lobby with your configuration, all clients will get the same configuration

[naive talon]

spicy.

[analog radish]

That's actually great

[solid pivot]

I heard the TZP helium sound effect doesnt work in MoreCompany for every player over 4?

Should work with my mod tho. I will test it soon

But I created a new audio mixer for it

[analog radish]

Wow!

That's amazing

[solid pivot]

But of course this comes with a performance cost.

[solid pivot]

Navy Seals team photo

There is a problem with the Quick Menu tho

Inventory and syncing is now working correctly again with 5+ players

This is always a good look. Seems like no log exploded

[bleak frigate]

got a question, since theres a chance of a masked enemy spawning by itself. wouldn't it be easy to figure out who it is since they have no gadgets on em?

[solid pivot]

True :3

And I guess the logic of taking over a player calls DiscardAllItems

which would also drop all clothing

At least as it is now. Maybe I'll change that later

[bleak frigate]

maybe in the future if you can find a workaround where a natural masked enemy just copies one of the players gadgets which i doubt its achievable
so kinda like a impostor or a clone

cuz i play with that one mod that deletes the mask on a infected

[solid pivot]

I am sure its not that hard but tedious

I think the masked enemies have their own rigs

So I have to add all equipment items to those rigs and that takes time :D

[bleak frigate]

i figured as such, cause there's a brief hick that comes from a playable player to a masked enemy that plays an animation

[solid pivot]

They at least have their own animator.

Lets see if I can cut their feets off

yesh

No new skinning needed

But they wouldnt drop the equipment then

[bleak frigate]

so its own model right?

[solid pivot]

Yea, I can put on equipment the same way as I do with players

Nah, its the same model or at least the same skin and rig :D

So it wont be tedious either. Just have to think how I want to implement this

Probably will do it like this then:
If a masked player is created by a player it will have the same equipment
If a masked player spawns it will have a random chance to have equipment

But probably not for the 1.0 release but 1.0.1 as a hotfix :)

[bleak frigate]

i like that. i would like it better it chooses one of the players equipment so if player 2 has NVG + Vest
then when a natural masked enemy spawns because no one found the mask, it will copy player 2. so there be a player 2 impostor roaming the map.

[bleak frigate]

pretty sure we be ok with that

[analog radish]

Wow

[solid pivot]

Yea, I can do it that way too but if player 2 is putting the vest away the masked player wouldnt reflect that change.

[bleak frigate]

ohhh i see

im fine with that tbh either way

most of my friends spread out when were inside the facility

and they dont notice small details like that

but im fine with ur current idea

[solid pivot]

btw. Blender Cycles Normal Baking is so powerful :D

So many details on the damaged vest

with 0 added vertices

[bleak frigate]

yeah u cook really well, this is probably gonna be the best mod in LC

lots of content and all that

[solid pivot]

I hope so :3

And its highly customizable

[bleak frigate]

yeah im very excited to play this, ive been holding off playing LC till this drops

[solid pivot]

same for me

Didnt play v45 a single time yet

Tomorrow will be the first time with my mod :3

[bleak frigate]

🔥

[analog radish]

If it is the mod that I think spawns by copying one of the players, it will spawn with the clothes it had at that moment, but if it changes after having spawned, there will be differences

[bleak frigate]

i'd imagine it would cause desyncs if the masked enemy changes its clothes after spawn

if player 2 removes their NVG and the masked tries to copy it i highly think it would have repercussions

[solid pivot]

Oh I can actually copy the player at all times

[bleak frigate]

you sure?

[solid pivot]

The mimic player is already holding a reference to the player it wants to mimic

[bleak frigate]

so my hypothetical scenario, it could work then?

interesting.

[solid pivot]

Yea, I can basically just add Update code to the masked player and look at the player inventory :D

[analog radish]

Oh, it wouldn't cause issues with the og mod?

[solid pivot]

and apply all clothing modifiers to the masked player as well

I dunno if it causes problems

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/HomelessGinger/MaskedEnemyOverhaul/
Is it this mod?

[bleak frigate]

thats what i was thinking also ^

is it that mod ur talking about? @analog radish

[analog radish]

Yes

[bleak frigate]

cause i use that mod to remove the mask from converted players

[analog radish]

I play with that + skinwalker

[solid pivot]

Removing the mask could be configurable in my mod too

[bleak frigate]

YO SAME

[solid pivot]

Thats like simple 5 mins stuff

Quick math

GameObject.Destroy(mask) basically

[analog radish]

And don't raise his hand

[solid pivot]

or less destructive: mask.SetActive(false)

[bleak frigate]

then if you may, it be nice if it be added to ur mod. cause i was gonna use maskedenemyoverhaul with ur mod anyways

[solid pivot]

I might not entirely understand the random spawn I think?
Because in CreateMimicServerRpc you can see:
component.SetSuit(previousPlayerHeldBy.currentSuitID);

But the mod states that it assigns a suit as if it didnt do it before that.

But well I'll see :D

I need to finish fixing bugs first

[analog radish]

Don't worry, we're glad to know that you're thinking a lot about compatibilities.

Maybe for a future version it would be good

[bleak frigate]

yeah

finish everything else first lmao, the masked can be fixed later

[analog radish]

So, if you use MoreCompany with this mod, there won't be issues for loading a larger lobby practically twice?
For cosmetic purposes of course

[rapid hollow]

making this mod modular would be really nice

[bleak frigate]

@rapid hollow

[rapid hollow]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/955997326994985042.webp?size=48&name=allears&quality=lossless

[solid pivot]

@analog radish Wont work with More Company at all because I wasnt able to test it due to it not working in LAN mode :3 I can make my lobby patches removeable at a later date so you can try MoreCompany for yourself. But I wont be able to add compability :D I dont have 5 steam accounts.

My implementation is more surgical tho.

[analog radish]

Dw

[solid pivot]

So maybe MoreCompany can override what I did

But I dunno AND I dont care tbh :D

Not supporting LAN mode is a cardinal sin in my books

I dont want to send a DLL to friends every 5 mins and ask them to replace the mod and start up the game

Then they all have to send me logs back etc. to find out where an error is

[bleak frigate]

could have volunteers do it for u but i understand

[solid pivot]

Working with LAN mode is so great to fix all desyncs and test everything in a multiplayer setting

Starting the game 5 times myself is way quicker then sending dlls to volunteers :P

And risking a leak of the mod

[bleak frigate]

you right

[analog radish]

Ok, no MC Compatibility

Wanted to be sure

[solid pivot]

I wouldnt hope for it, yea

[bleak frigate]

also i guess it would be rather goofy having MC cosmetics ontop of the clothing and such

[solid pivot]

^ this

[analog radish]

There'll be people

There's always people who wants

[solid pivot]

The incompability wont be a problem in the long run. When the prestige system is ready

[analog radish]

But is understandable

[solid pivot]

And you can have a unicorn landing ship

Or a jeb tentacle landing ship

Or a rainbow bulletproof vest

[bleak frigate]

i know there will be people who likes cosmetics, i mean i get it, it makes everyone an individual and not look the same

its the main reason why i chose it over than biggerlobby

[solid pivot]

Thomas the engine landing ship

[bleak frigate]

but im willing to sacrifice it for this mod

[analog radish]

x2

[solid pivot]

For me its suspicious why it doesnt support LAN

tbh

I was able to build Bigger Lobbies in 4 hours without dropping LAN support

[bleak frigate]

i never really noticed it had that issue since i only play online

thought it was just a more stable biggerlobby at the time

[solid pivot]

And I mean suspicious not in a "I collect your data"-way but: Why doesnt it work in LAN? I mean, I just added more players and its working fine. Why is my solution working?

But maybe I am overseeing something

And my solution isnt working at all. Dunno :D

That button is "Open steam profile"?

[bleak frigate]

yeah i believe so

[solid pivot]

OK, the buttons werent mapped correctly with my UI changes. Have to add back that functionality

[analog radish]

Never pressed it

[bleak frigate]

me neither but i highly assume thats what it does

[solid pivot]

Is this a bug which happens in vanilla too? That you can adjust your own volume when you are the last player to connect?

[bleak frigate]

uhh no think so

usually urs is exempted from volume change

[solid pivot]

It only happens for the last player

Who is the imposter?

boom

Imposter wins

Fireworks massacre

[tropic frigate]

maybe the sixth player

[solid pivot]

Fireworks are too strong tho

3 hits were enough to kill the whole crew

And NO

you cant damage enemies with fireworks

They have firework resistant skin

[bleak frigate]

[solid pivot]

But you still can shoot a rocket in the back of your team mates

[analog radish]

If they work as a distraction, in itself it will be quite useful

[solid pivot]

You will kill them anyway even withotu damage

eyeless dogs will be like: YUMMY!

[solid pivot]

Reduced damage to 10

[solid pivot]

The last thing you'll see before a team mate kills you

Target down

Nobody will ever find the body

[analog radish]

Oof

Have you been able to make the trailer?

[solid pivot]

Currently helping a friend completing Pandaemonium in FFXIV :)

Next Turn is 12 tho, after that I can continue working on the mod/trailer

[analog radish]

Good luck!

[solid pivot]

Wasnt that hard :D

I even let him main tank it. He is still experiencing the story. So not savage tier

[analog radish]

Oh, I see, that's cool

[solid pivot]

...

You can get under the water on flooded march into the regular water...

its basically like this

the upper body being the flooded water

and there is a gap...

[analog radish]

oh

so iit is not the same Water

[small glade]

advanced water

[solid pivot]

Exactly. But fixed the bug

[analog radish]

Cool!

[solid pivot]

Cant really help you. You have Google and the biggest library humans ever built: The internet. There are a lot of resources on the internet just one search away from you.

Trailer drop incoming in... RIGHT NOW
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHA0Y8P89Tg

[WIP] Advanced Company

Requires 1000s of hours of dedication. Not gonna lie.

Its just like playing an instrument or any other skill

[dense roost]

Ayy, the trailer looks amazing!!

[dense roost]

Yeah I am sure of it, but thanks anyways.

[solid pivot]

And for modding Unity games you primarily need C#

If my play session tomorrow is successful and I find only a couple of bugs I'll release it tomorrow btw

[dense roost]

Hell yeah!!! Can't wait!
Hopefully everything goes smoothly!

[analog radish]

YEAAHH!!!

[analog radish]

Amazing trailer

[analog radish]

btw, There is no headlamp at the release, right?

[solid pivot]

Correct

And thanks :)

Didnt want to show off too much

[analog radish]

dw, It's amazing already

[solid pivot]

There are some nasty bugs which only occur when in the second lobby you join

[analog radish]

It happens if someone joins my lobby?

[solid pivot]

No, if you leave and join another lobby

And I will fix the bugs

[analog radish]

The bug can occur if I open the game, create a lobby, make a game, close and go to a friend's lobby.

[solid pivot]

Fixed one :3 When you deactivate vanilla items the buyable items get switched on the second lobby. Boombox became pro flashlight

Now its the Boombox

most important item anyway

[analog radish]

Lol yeah

[solid pivot]

Screenshot of all the items :D

There are more items tho. One sec

Good that I tested this xD

And I need to see what I have to do to make the skillet work

There is some more stuff

[analog radish]

What is that Jar?

[solid pivot]

Potatoes of course

[analog radish]

Oh, cool!

[solid pivot]

Do you think I wouldnt add myself to the game? :3

[analog radish]

lel, that makes sense

[bleak frigate]

[solid pivot]

...

Why dev

Why

for (int j = 0; j < StartOfRound.Instance.allItemsList.itemsList.Count; j++)
{
if (StartOfRound.Instance.allItemsList.itemsList[j] == array[i].itemProperties)
{
list.Add(j);

You have fricking itemIds for EVERY item

But instead you decide to save items by their "index" in an array >.<

Now I know why my items got replaced with others when I changed the order in which I add them

I mean, its not the worst code I've ever seen but its still far away from anything good...

[analog radish]

Oof

[solid pivot]

Probably the most elegant solution would be to expand the array to 1000 length and just place my items with fixed indices

Dunno if this would work with others mod tho, as they tend to do ToList().Add(xyz) and then ToArray()

Thats a part of the game I will totally rework for the library

I can even make it 65535 long.

Then its ushort.MaxValue

it only holds references anyway

Finally a nice screenshot of all items

Btw, I did plan an item against lightning

A wearable faraday cage

But it would prevent you from crouching :3

The only reason I havent added it yet is because I dont know how to design it without it looking silly

[white shuttle]

[solid pivot]

If you run out of stamina while swimming with the flippers

You will behave like if you dont wear them

Sinking to the ground

Did I already say that you will get XP for every quota now instead of when you fail? I think I said this

[solid pivot]

I think thats all key features?

I will make sections for every key feature with GIFs etc.

[analog radish]

That would be spoilers, maybe doing that in summary?

[analog radish]

Cool!

[solid pivot]

Mod page will be very detailled :D

[analog radish]

That's good!

[solid pivot]

btw

my mod will make the end screen soooooo much better

I have a perfect idea :)

Just wait for it, dont wanna spoil it

Probably wont be part 1.1 but a small update before

1.1 is aimed for a february / march release. Adding 5-6 new items will take some time

[solid pivot]

Soon I will test the mod :D

[solid pivot]

AdvancedLib will make it possible to add new synchronized data to players easily :3

Because with AdvancedLib you dont access the game player controller but the new one which opens up all private fields etc.

I will do this primarily because it will make a lot of stuff so much easier for myself :D

Server just being like player.GetData<PerksData>().XP += 1000; and it just auto syncs with the client

[analog radish]

Good luck!

I have a question, the XP and its upgrades are personal per player?

[solid pivot]

Ship XP is server savegame, Player XP is personal

So if server deletes its savegame and starts a new savegame it starts with 0 Ship XP

If you have 5000 player XP and delete all your save files and create a new one you will still have 5000 player XP

[analog radish]

Oh, I see. The Player XP is permanent

[solid pivot]

You can reset them on the terminal if you like to start anew :D

[analog radish]

If you are the host, can you reset the XP of your crewmates?

[solid pivot]

No

[analog radish]

That's good

Thx

[solid pivot]

Only server can reset ship xp / respec ship xp :D

[solid pivot]

AdvancedLib will also come with a very comprehensive Unity template including editor tools for placing objects in hands when carried etc.

[solid pivot]

Including a turotial about how to extract the necessary game assets to extend the templates capabilities (instead of showing placeholders actually showing you the player model for animation tests, adding new animations etc)

[gleaming junco]

Is this better than just publicizing the assembly for any reason to gain access to those fields?

[solid pivot]

No, changing the assembly with a prepatcher is probably better. I will look into prepatching before I will work on the library.

Reflection is even slower, but setting a field to public in unity is... tricky sometimes

You can add [NonSerialized] to the fields but sometimes unity works in mysterious ways

But I would still use custom containers because of Naming Conventions

Unity is teaching people the wrong naming conventions :3

[gleaming junco]

This method was awesome: #1184353028212535327 message

[solid pivot]

Fields are named LikeThis

[gleaming junco]

Literally two lines of code added to the csproj and bam. publicized

[solid pivot]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/fundamentals/coding-style/identifier-names

Unity is still using camelCase instead of PascalCase.

So most devs are using camelCase for Fields which is causing brain cancer in me.

[solid pivot]

Thanks for the link. Will use this for the library but still add a container around it to add new methods

I will however also use extension methods but they are somewhat limited in scope

Cant add new fields with extensions ;)

I could create a Dictionary with the object as key and check it regularly for destroyed objects but well

Doesnt feel right. I think its much easier to just use AdvancedLib.Player.Local()

Or AdvancedLib.Player.Get(int playerNum)

Or AdvancedLib.Player.Get(ulong clientID)

Or do you really prefer to use GameNetworkManager.Instance?.localPlayerController and StartOfRound.Instance?.allPlayerScripts

Oh btw

if you prefer to directly work with the Controller of the game

There would still be .Controller

AdvancedLib.Player.Local().Controller.sprintMultiplier = 5f;

I am not sure about how other mods will be able to add data to players but I think it will look something like this:

AdvancedLib.Player.AddDataHandler<DataHandler>();

and DataHandler is T : new(), IDataHandler

public class DataHandler
{
public float SwimmingSpeed = 0.5f;
[Synchronize]
public int XP;
}

And then in your code you can use AdvancedLib.Player.Local().GetData<DataHandler>()

[solid pivot]

My friend got a slower PC and 32 channels audio mixer is too much it seems

So I have to add multiple audio mixers for the player count. 32 players will need a beefy pc

[gleaming junco]

lol meanwhile your pc can run 6 instances with 32 channels

Kinda crazy how much hardware has improved in recent years XD

[solid pivot]

True

[analog radish]

Hello!
How is everything?

[bleak frigate]

wouldnt this be OP in the long-run

dont get me wrong its cool and all but if me and my friends maxed out our XP then there be nothing to grind for in the perk system wise.

i know you might say like we have the option to remove our personal save file to restart from 0 but not all my friends are willing to do that. and i know one in particular that won't do that

[solid pivot]

You can still decide to reset your progress at the beginning of a round

Or you can keep them and increase the prices as server :P

And yea, went Okayish

Some bugs found

Some big ones too, at least from their impact

Loot Saver seems to be very broken :'D

[analog radish]

Oof

[solid pivot]

Probably a small bug but well

lets see

But: Overall it worked without much problems

Only performance problems for my friend

He has a pretty old PC

Is a 32 player lobby really needed btw?

Isnt 16 enough?

I mean, I tested with with activating all players and the ship is basically absolutely full

with 32 players

[fair delta]

add more ships

[solid pivot]

haha

[analog radish]

If it were my opinion, no, it is not necessary.
Already having 10 players is a lot for me.

[solid pivot]

For now I'll keep the cap at 32 and add mixers for 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28 and 32 players

So it switches the audio mixer depending on players

You do need a Ryzen 3xxx at least for 32 players I think

Dunno about core usage

Probably uses some cores as its "just" audio

Doesnt need to be precisely synced with the GPU

So more cores => better probably

Maybe a ryzen 1xxx is also enough if it has at least 8 cores? Dunno tbh

But maybe its not the audio mixers but all the player instances

In that case I dont have a real fix rn

They shouldnt be heavy on the CPU as they are basically deactivated

[analog radish]

How would It be with this?

[solid pivot]

He had no GPU problem ^^

His GPU was at 30% and way older than that

I think its still GTX9xx

But not newer than GTX10

It was a CPU bottleneck which is why I think its the audio with all its filters

[analog radish]

I see

[solid pivot]

Having 32 pitch filters and 32 compressors is a lot

[analog radish]

yeah

For me, 16 players is more than enough.
If you want more players, install biggerlobby or MoreCompany

[solid pivot]

Oh and we had a big problem :D Scrap value was way higher. Seems like the multiplier isnt at 1f at standard

Have to adjust for that

Like I said, some bugs were small and easy to fix

But its good that I found them

[analog radish]

yep

[solid pivot]

Yea... ScrapValueMultiplier is at 0.4

So I have to adjust that. We had painints worth 500 xD

I mean its expected that they get higher values when stormy

And the lightning rod is very very overpowered

Even if you cant pick it up again

Currently its just 120 credits

way too cheap

Should be 400 again

[analog radish]

I can assume that when you release it, there will be people finding several bugs that even with your multiple tests, you wouldn't find them at 1st

[analog radish]

Yep

[solid pivot]

True

But I want to release a version where I can say: Yea, I tested it

[analog radish]

understandable, dw

[solid pivot]

The config will stay with Base 100 for scrap value but I will adjust by just multiplying with 40% :D

[gleaming junco]

I think 16 is plenty personally. I don't play with anything over 8 personally

Try to keep it under 6 even

[fair delta]

400 and not reusable 😭

[gleaming junco]

The game needs some serious balance changes if you want to play with more than 6

[solid pivot]

Yea, and the lightning rod is basically removing the stormy weather

And stormy has a 150% scrap value multiplier

[gleaming junco]

And unless there is a mod that does it all dynamically and perfectly, i'm not interested in playing with over 8 lol

[solid pivot]

I will add some dynamic balancing stuff later

Because I see the same problem

But cant really do much more than lowering the value of scrap :P

[gleaming junco]

No to throw more on your plate lol i'm just saying the game becomes boring with 32 players because it doesn't scale

But I know some people still host like 30 person lobbies so its all opinion

[solid pivot]

And increasing dungeon size

Basically at 32 players

20% loot value, 300% loot amount, 300% dungeon size

So you have to get a lot of loot out of it

Painting being like 40 credits

small items being 5-10 credits

[fair delta]

need a 4v4 pvp mode where two groups compete over the same loot and facilities fighting each other 😁

[gleaming junco]

The CoomfyDungeon mod is pretty much exactly what im talking about, but last i checked it still had some bugs

[gleaming junco]

I pitched this exact idea to my friend lmao

[solid pivot]

Yea, new game modes :D

I had the idea of secret missions :3

[gleaming junco]

When we were talking about mod ideas we also pitched a couple ideas for complete spin-off games (There aren't a lot of games with similar philosophy to LC)

And that was the idea i pitched lol

[analog radish]

btw, What does this perk do?

[solid pivot]

Every player has a chance to get a secret mission which they can share with others or dont

Critical Hit Chance

Critical Hit => Instakill

[analog radish]

I see, thx

[solid pivot]

If you are lucky you can kill nutcrackers with 1 hit

[analog radish]

max lvl how many percentage is?

[solid pivot]

70% I think

You can lower it tho :D

[analog radish]

thx

[nova ingot]

Also had this idea but as a barotrauma traitor mode instead of just a mission

[solid pivot]

Yea, was about to say this

One secret mission being like: Kill XYZ (other player)

[gleaming junco]

Scrap multiplier is 0.4 default

[solid pivot]

Or: Be the sole survivor

[gleaming junco]

If you havent figured it out already

[analog radish]

Do you have plans to add missions?

[solid pivot]

Already figured it out :P

But thx

Not yet

There are mods with missions out there already ^^

[analog radish]

yep

[solid pivot]

My plate is pretty full already

[analog radish]

wanted to make sure, thx

yeah

[solid pivot]

But the data sync library stuff will help other mods create awesome things.

Makes a lot of stuff way easier than it was before.

[fair delta]

what would you gain for doing this since it seems counterproductive to succeeding in the game 😄

[analog radish]

That's great!

[analog radish]

fun

[solid pivot]

@fair delta I dont plan to add missions. It was just an idea. But when my mod would be finished probably something very worthy like prestige points

Prestige system will add customization options :P

Oh and there is a bug I probably wont be able to fix

if you get spray painted all my items get semi transparent when hold by that player

If they drop them they are normal again

[bleak frigate]

i dunno i just think an option to make it force-reset would be cool but its fine if u dont want to do that. i'll see how it goes

[solid pivot]

I can still change that behaviour later

I havent extensively tested it yet and when I release it more players will be able to test it and give feedback

[bleak frigate]

of course. im just worried of it being considered overpowering feeling

but for now it is what it is 😅

[analog radish]

true

[solid pivot]

I mean, my mod enables other modders to build upon, creating new enemies and make the game harder

[fair delta]

would be nice to have a sense of progression outside of each save

so always feels like you're working towards something

and not always starting over each save

[solid pivot]

Thats why I created the mod :D

[bleak frigate]

thats why i rather have an option for host to force-reset

cuz ik some will like that

[solid pivot]

New items were planned to be bound to ship tier levels

And they will be

But not for release

I might add a feature for servers to temporarily reset all xp to 0

Because when the server resets a player to 0XP that gets saved on their save file

[fair delta]

assuming it only applies in that game and not outside of it

[solid pivot]

Which would make it possible to create troll lobbies

@fair delta Yea.

[fair delta]

open world lethal mmo update when?

[solid pivot]

xD

[fair delta]

fly from moon to moon without loading screens

actually gives me an idea

when you land on a moon your ship is low on fuel and you have to find fuel canisters in the facility to refuel it before you can take off 😈

stop you from just taking off early when you're in danger

fill up your tank and high tier moons cost more fuel to travel to

or if you're out of fuel at midnight, just sleep in your ship and you're stuck at the same moon the next day

[solid pivot]

Nice idea

And you could add the alternative to sacrifice credits for fuel :D

The company needs to make some profit too

[fair delta]

Yeah add space stations that you can fly to nearby different moons, so you can fly to a near one cheaply to buy some fuel for credits

and make many items only buyable at stations, different items at each one

[solid pivot]

When a AAA studio would make lethal company :P

I am sure there are at least 3 AAA budget titles in the works rn copying Lethal Company considering the hype

2 will get cancelled anyway

Or at least AA budget

Big companies seem only be able to copy others

[fair delta]

investors only want to pay for what they're sure will make money, aka what's already proven successful

[solid pivot]

I can extend this basically to infinity

10000 player lobbies incoming

Lethal Company MMO confirmed

I mean, there is a way better way to handle audio mixing by just supplying like 6 channels and switching which player talks in which

[analog radish]

What I would add would be that the doors would automatically close after 12, automatically killing whoever was outside.

[solid pivot]

There often isnt a situation where you can hear 6 players at once

And maybe I will rewrite the game in that manner

This would increase the possible lobby sizes way beyond 64

[analog radish]

The ship

[fair delta]

Why automatically, just keep spawning dogs until they die 🤣

[solid pivot]

True, but in that situation you would only hear 6 players basically :D

(at the same time)

If one stops speaking the channel is free again

hot swapping channels :)

[fair delta]

if 6 people are speaking at once you prob cant hear what theyre saying anyway xd

[analog radish]

welp, true. If it´s dynamic, I think it is possible to do it that way

[solid pivot]

Would save a lot of CPU resources and you still have audio pitch effects. I mean

the only situation where its used is for TZP

I mean, the vanilla game has 4 channels for 4 players

There is a good reason its limited to 4 players :D

[analog radish]

because there are places where one can survive from dogs at night

[solid pivot]

Just stand on the ship

Dogs are dumb

[fair delta]

ok just let monsters leave the facility after midnight 😈

[solid pivot]

And its silly that giants can climb ladders xD

Dogs can climb ladders too, right?

[fair delta]

irl or in game

i think they can irl

[solid pivot]

ingame

[fair delta]

xd

[solid pivot]

I mean, I understand why its that way

But you could fix most cases with level design

[fair delta]

masked can climb ladders

[solid pivot]

That makes sense :P

[analog radish]

they don't climb, they teleport

[solid pivot]

hahahaha

[analog radish]

but yeah lol

[fair delta]

ok

[analog radish]

also the bracken

[solid pivot]

Dev really needs to hire some people

[fair delta]

lightning after midnight

[solid pivot]

After all those sales

[fair delta]

just strike everyone outside the ship

[analog radish]

yep

it's almost mandatory if they want to make this game maintain the success

[bleak frigate]

something that phas failed to do

[analog radish]

sadly yeah

[nova ingot]

Phas devs try not to drag on development challenge (impossible)

[bleak frigate]

Yeah exactly ☠️

[nova ingot]

Tripled their staff, doubled their dev length

INSANEEEE

[left rapids]

let em cook

[tropic frigate]

i think zeekerss is too good that any other hired devs would be obliterated by the sheer power

[solid pivot]

Cant be true, I saw the code...

I mean, I can only complain from a modding standpoint after all. The game works mostly as it is.

Saw worse code tbh

[solid pivot]

I will branch my code off now btw. Release should be ready, will test it tomorrow

I will start the work on the library now

[bleak frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/lethal-company-jump-barbarian-meme-sped-up-gif-14074021366932976810

[naive talon]

[tomorrow intensifies]

[naive talon]

I mean. wasn't there that saying, about too many fingers and spoiled brewed?

coordination hard, if you're not already good at it.

[solid pivot]

In game development the most important thing for team development basically is modular systems

So small teams can work on a modular system which connects to other systems and a larger team can handle all the integration of the systems :D

Look at games like Assassins Creed for example. There are a lot of systems at play. Rendering, Weather, World Building, Parcour, Fighting, Animations, Cutscenes etc. etc.

Splitting that all up to small teams and another team integrating them into the final product is probably the most proven solution

And if you want agile development, every small team can organize itself with sprints and kanban boards and the bigger team talks to the team leads in the sprint meetings.

And coordinate when what is finished

You can basically scale that solution down to a couple people too. Instead of teams you have 1 person working on system X. And you basically have the sprint meeting with the one guy who integrates it all

That way everyone can work self organized and still coordinated

My experience in project management is at least useable to teach others a thing or two

[nova ingot]

Bad example imo seeing how ubisoft can't seemingly get a single game right, but otherwise a very true point

Btw are the clothing slots always going to be visible to the right of inventory slots as shown in the picture above or will it be a visibility toggle similar to reserved slots?

[naive talon]

... He wasn't even talking about the game itself, just the potential systems as an example for his explanation. Chill with the hates. :V

[naive talon]

so basically the same way you should always tackle a complex problem. Break it down and take it part at a time. Just in this case, everyone takes a part and meets in the middle with the implementation groups.

[analog radish]

Oof

[solid pivot]

Testing btw

But too many bugs to release yet

And Project management and quality of staff is a huge difference :D

Even the greatest games were made like I said

[analog radish]

Oof

[solid pivot]

Its playable

but still

[analog radish]

wanted to see it, but dw

[solid pivot]

You can xD

I am streaming it rn

but in german

Streaming for 7 hours already

[analog radish]

wow

And how many bugs?

[solid pivot]

List of 5 or so

But some are bad

Like being able to use equipped items when dying

[analog radish]

Oh, I see

I hope those things can be fixed

[solid pivot]

Sure

[analog radish]

Btw, how can I check your stream?

[solid pivot]

https://twitch.tv/potatoepet

But about to end now :D

[analog radish]

Oh

I found it very fun to play

[solid pivot]

I can publish the VOD if anyone is interested in that

But like I said, its in german

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2015218802

[lunar plover]

Haven't seen much of the mod yet aside from some of the teasers so a vod would be appreciated 👍

[solid pivot]

Here is the VOD

So yea, the mod is real xD

And its playable somewaht

[lunar plover]

Lol, looking forward to seeing this mod progress

[solid pivot]

Btw, 32 players still lagged even with audiomixer stuff fixed. So its something else

Maybe Ill remove the bigger lobby stuff for now :<

[analog radish]

Oww, dw

[solid pivot]

I think its because all 32 player objects are active, probably the skinnedmeshrenderers?

I will deactivate them and activate them according to actually connected clients

OK, can confirm. Deactivating the gameobjects of the other players helps my friends FPS

So I probably will use this as a solution

[analog radish]

that's great

[solid pivot]

true :3

He wont be able to play with 32 players because of his PC

but people with beefier PCs will

[nova ingot]

So wait, is this supposed to be an all encompassing mod? Idk if I asked this before

[solid pivot]

As the mod is most likely incompatible with MoreCompany I decided to add bigger lobbies myself

I cant test it as MoreCompany doesnt support LAN

My bigger lobby solution does support LAN

[nova ingot]

I'd imagine so, how do you think it'll play with dungeon, ai changes/fixes, and other mods like Lethal progression?

[solid pivot]

AI Changes depends on how they are done

Dungeons should work fine

Lethal Progression will collide in certain skills

As long as Lethal Progression is using IL patching tho, they should work fine together

[analog radish]

I'd uninstall Lethal Progression for this

[nova ingot]

That's probably the plan, assuming everything else works fine

[analog radish]

Sad to know that no update today

but for good reasons, so dw

[nova ingot]

Time is quality

Ig the main concern is how the clothing slots will play with something like reserved slots

[bleak frigate]

can you add a bit more detail bout that?

i wanna add diversity minus their bleeding mechanic

[solid pivot]

My mod will impact those mods less than MoreCompany

Coilhead AI for example is only looking for 4 players

So I had to change some stuff

Same with the girl

[nova ingot]

Makes sense

[bleak frigate]

so you config'd the coilhead and the ghost girl? i see.

[solid pivot]

I change < 4 to < StartOfRound.Instance.allPlayerScripts.length

[bleak frigate]

ah then it should be fine with symbosis and diversity

[solid pivot]

They might replace the method and keep < 4 in there

Then it wont work with more than 4 players

[analog radish]

Diversity does not change the coilheads

and if I'm not mistaken, neither is Symbiosis

[bleak frigate]

diversity only adds 1 small feature to the ghost girl tho

[analog radish]

Diveristy Adds:

• 4 changes to the Bracken
• 1 change to the enviroment
• 1 change to the spíders
• 1 change to the Thumper
• 1 changer to the Little Girl
• 1 change to the player

Symbiosis Adds:

• 1 change to the Hoarding Bug
• 1 change to the flies

[bleak frigate]

i meant to her specifically 😭

[solid pivot]

Most bugs should be fixed

I will do some tests soon and then maybe I can finally prepare the release (finishing the readme)

32 players is still experimental tho.

But I also fixed stuff like Crawler being able to hit all 32 players at the same time

It was able to do so with all 4 players before, so should also be able to do this with 32 players :D

Fixed the AI bugs which occured in our playthrough yesterday

Fixed some other nasty bugs like the equipment stuff being still useable after death

or double jump being an endless jump xD

I have to look at the flippers for a last time tho

Yesterday it seemed like they didnt work like intended

[analog radish]

wow

Good luck!

I patch a lot more than that with prefix/postfix tho

Player Voices had an error tho. Have to look into this too

You couldnt control the volume

In our play session

So flippers and player voices are the only things left for me to check

[solid pivot]

At least in LAN mode voice is now working

[analog radish]

Good!

[solid pivot]

Flippers probably wont take stamina into consideration for the first release

But dont get used to it :3

[analog radish]

Ooh, interesting

By the way, does the Flipper work with both types of water?

The water from the lakes/rivers, and the water from the flooded weather

[solid pivot]

yes

But there is a nasty bug when entering the factory while diving

[analog radish]

I would choose not to let them open the door.
I mean, with a little logic, with the force of submerged water they would not allow the doors to move

if there is a lot of problem with that dirty bug

[nova ingot]

But what if I enter the facility while balling

[solid pivot]

Seems to be working now, mh

Didnt change anything

well

[solid pivot]

Good news

tested the flippers and audio channel stuff

everything is working

Release is very soon

I need to record some small video clips and convert them to gifs tho

[solid pivot]

Creating a good readme is hard tho :D

[analog radish]

I can confirm that

[solid pivot]

I am at the Respec part of the README :D

I hope this is somewhat clear?

Basically the F key does exactly what everyone is feeling it should do.

When play testing the feedback on it was exactly that

It just works perfectly

Exactly as you want it to work :D

The Readme is soooooooooo long

[nova ingot]

Nice

[analog radish]

I can understand it, so its ok

[solid pivot]

And I am pretty sure no other mod does it that way :D

And for me its the perfect way to handle flashlights

[analog radish]

with the night vision, nope

[solid pivot]

You will never ever have 2 flashlights activated at the same time in your inventory

[analog radish]

well, yes there is a mod that does that, but with all that set, no

[nova ingot]

I see "(standard: f)", means that it's rebindable, yes?

[solid pivot]

Nearly everything is configurable

I mean everything

you can even deactivate the pro flashlight

or give Vow a travel price of 1000 credits

Or you can make the pro flashlight cost 10000 credits

[nova ingot]

Experimentation 10k credits

[solid pivot]

I will modularize the game way more with my library

Making even more stuff configurable in the future

So you can have totally custom lobbies

[analog radish]

I use a mod called Permanent moons, which makes that, when you buy a moon, you can travel to another place and return completely free.
To balance that, I want to increase the prices of moons.

[solid pivot]

Including deactivating certain moons

Or change the weather which can spawn

or enemies which can spawn

[nova ingot]

Nice, I prefer a complex and indepth config to a lite one

[solid pivot]

You will have extreme fine details in configuration with my library as I basically replace huge parts of the game with my own code

You can still use the standards anytime :P

But you will be able to go very in depth with the library

Including changing loot tables of moons

And spawn rates of certain loot

But like I said, thats for the librarization of the game

[analog radish]

Are the default values the vanilla?

[solid pivot]

What I want to do is basically what bukkit is for Minecraft.

[analog radish]

that's great

[solid pivot]

I rework the game in a way which makes it way more mod friendly

Yes, default values are somewhat vanilla

The weights are a bit off as they are actually something like 6.3lb

and 12.512lb

They only show 6lb or 13lb tho

So they are rounded rn, but will fix that later

[analog radish]

oh, I see

dw

[solid pivot]

It doesnt have a huge impact ^^

Some items are a little bit lighter, some are a little bit heavier

never more than 0.49lb

[lunar plover]

Love the custimization this mod has! Still hoping that one day we might get customized loot tables (or even enemy spawns) for specific dungeons, would be sick for some of the custom ones out there right now

[solid pivot]

Could do this as well later

Good point tho

I will also add the ability to add new moons and dungeons later. I know there is a library for it but I want it all in a neat package

And I am also willing to offer 10s of new moons

Or many new layouts

[analog radish]

If the prices become compatible with the custom moons, I will add them to my Modpack

[solid pivot]

One layout idea is the Portal Testing Facility with actually working (but already opened) portals

Navigating those will be very fun x)

But you will have a way to safe yourself from enemies as they most likely wont be able to enter them due to NavMesh stuff

[lunar plover]

Bonus point if you can open and close some through the console like you would with the security doors lol

[solid pivot]

uuhhh

thats nice :D

But thats stuff for mid 2024 tbh. I am still a full time employee :3

But adding the functionality will come as soon as possible

And if it is getting adapted depends on the people already creating moons with the other library.

If they think I offer them a better or at least comparable solution they surely will create a compability mod

Library will also be 100% documented

And probably open source

My mod will at least become source available later

Dunno if I want to open source it because people might use my 3d models for their own stuff then :<

Or I have to exclude my creative work

[bleak frigate]

GOOD

more information the better

[solid pivot]

True

some stuff is pretty self explanatory tho

Battery indicators

Underneath your items you can see a battery indicator:

[bleak frigate]

ofc

[solid pivot]

Extend your deadline

If you feel you need a little bit more time you are able to extend the deadline by a single day once per quota (You can deactivate this functionality in the config). To do so, go to your terminal and enter the command "extend". The standard price for this is the current quota. With the "Deadline discount" perk you can reduce that cost.

This might be helpful :D

Some screenshots will be outdated tho. "Extend the quota" will correctly be replaced with "extend the deadline" XD

[analog radish]

haha

[solid pivot]

I am at the final section. Configurability

[analog radish]

wow

[solid pivot]

I want to fix one bug :D

Night vision is delivered with an empty battery

its not a big deal tbh but still

But this small bug shows that I dont have any more severe bugs on my list

[analog radish]

Oh, ok

[solid pivot]

:)

I always fix bugs by severity

Works now xD

I am a bit nervous, haha

I have to think about something to push back the release

[analog radish]

what?

[solid pivot]

I am always nervous when releasing my projects

Its like sending your child going to school alone for the first time

Do I need to create a team?

Should I click this?

[analog radish]

lel

yep

[solid pivot]

Oof

Its a hard button to click

welp

I am a single person and not a team

[analog radish]

Make what I did, make a team with your name

and you are the owner

[solid pivot]

I was just kidding :3

oh no

How to report problems:
Step 1: Look at github issues if your problem was already reported:
https://github.com/FluffyFishGames/AdvancedCompany/issues
Step 2: If not, create a ticket and supply all needed information:
https://github.com/FluffyFishGames/AdvancedCompany/issues/new/choose
Step 3: Wait

There it is

Have fun!

[nova ingot]

golden

oh my god I can see what you mean by the readme being long

[solid pivot]

Its comprehensive

Covers everything. I will do this in the wiki later

[nova ingot]

yeah and that's the more important part

[solid pivot]

I really hope it works xD

It worked for me and my friends

Better hide somewhere.

[minor needle]

holy shit, cant wait to try this out w/ my friends this looks awesome

[solid pivot]

Thanks :3

Advanced Company

No longer WIP :D

[analog radish]

Congrats bro

[nova ingot]

wonder what this mod is hmmmm 🤔

[solid pivot]

Dunno, its probably shitty anyway

Oh btw

These are the mods I played it with

And everything worked fine I think

[solid pivot]

So these mods are tested compatible

Most important of course being YippeeMod

So Advanced. Even clear type font with anti aliasing

[analog radish]

now we start with 3 normal slots, right?

[solid pivot]

Correct

Go to terminal, you will have 500XP which are enough to buy the fourth slot

Or you buy other stuff with the 500XP

thats up to you

[analog radish]

cool

[solid pivot]

So you can decide to have it more vanilla or go another route first

I am so happy when I finish the library stuff. So much of the code is so... dirty

I mean its not as dirty as when I started this mod. But the mod clearly needs some refactoring now.

Everytime I see someone writing I am scared that the message will be: Broken!

[nova ingot]

boots up just fine with morecompany, will test with friends if anything truly does become incompatible (ignore the slots, I forgot to disable reserved)

[solid pivot]

hahahaha

[analog radish]

Its working

[solid pivot]

But I think the reserved slots SHOULD work

they only look a bit weird

I am not sure tho

Depends on if its changing anything with the inventory of the player

All mods changing itemSlots of the player objects will be incompatible by nature

[nova ingot]

I'll see rn

[solid pivot]

I need total control of the inventory for the perks system :)

[rapid hollow]

im gonna do the funny and try to boot with 50 other mods

[nova ingot]

50?

[solid pivot]

oooof

[rapid hollow]

ok you are a bit ahead

[solid pivot]

But those arent 86 mods which add functionality but like asset replacements, new suits etc.?

Sound replacements

Those mods will work just fine

[rapid hollow]

mine are

[solid pivot]

I am not tinkering with any game assets (at least mostly I think)

Player Meshes etc. yea

Only player related stuff. Enemies only stuff which is needed for bigger lobbies

Like I said: replacing stuff like var playerStates = new int[4] with new int[32]
