[BETA] MaskedAIRevamp

[carmine tapir]

it was WIP

meaning it wasnt released

now its released

as a...

beta

[torpid fjord]

very cool mod, but when they hold an item and they die, I can't pick up the scrap left behind

[carmine tapir]

same issue here

reloading the game will fix it

[torpid fjord]

k

[plush urchin]

speaking of them holding items, scanning will reveal the item they're holding, sure you already know that.

[nocturne bough]

Would be neat if the stealthy ones only killed when they’re alone with a player and guaranteed to convert them to a stealthy personality as well so that the crew would be taken over exponentially

[empty reef]

Looking forward to a proper release

[vocal stump]

Looking forward to replacing my entire squad with masked because at this point they are more intelligent lifeforms

[empty reef]

That’s acrually so real

Gonna have to forward this message on

For the company

[warm vessel]

I'm looking forward to this being more optimized, One masked is doable but when you have multiple it kills your fps, even on a 4090/i9 13th

[naive meteor]

Hello!
I dont know if the bug has been reported yet, but i though i may aswell say it just in case.

If the masked guy have scrap in his hands, when dead the scrap dissapear.

[marble steppe]

|| before and after

[proud ingot]

do ||spoiler||

so ||spoiler||

[naive meteor]

errased it, so it wont spoil

And sorry

[torpid mulch]

WHAT

SINCE WHEN?

[tranquil canyon]

ah yes, gotta love when the masked violently vomits blood on me then proceeds to twerk majestically and/or writes a sign saying fuck you

[torpid mulch]

i cannot wait for sign support

[harsh hazel]

Sign Emote is the best there is

nothing comes even close

[signal yarrow]

Is it modded

Or a new vanilla emote

It need it NOW

[rocky elk]

i think its from toomanyemotes

[leaden dune]

It's in the newest version of MoreEmotes. I don't know if Toomanyemotes has it as well

[rocky elk]

oh yeah right. i mixed them up

so you select the sign from the emote wheel and how do you write then?

[leaden dune]

There is a prompt where you can just write on your keyboard

It's pretty well done imo

[rocky elk]

i cant try it rn
but i imagine you just select it in the wheel and a text box appears

[spiral rampart]

yea

or you just press 0 if thats how your keybinds are set up

[rocky elk]

i like to use the wheel and keep my keybinds for other stuff than emotes

[hardy cobalt]

Well, you can select it from the wheel (change wheel page with mouse wheel) or just pushing keyboadr key, wgich you can set in config or even on ingame settings

[lean onyx]

Has this gotten any updates yet

[vocal locust]

Nah still no update for v47+

[lean onyx]

i see

he said he was busy with something while back

[vocal locust]

ye

[bitter willow]

can i get this mod rn?

[opal vortex]

@willow birch it takes min for it to get back up

[bitter willow]

wait

i have a question

is this apart of masked enemy overhaul?

[opal vortex]

what is

[bitter willow]

the one right beside it basically it just removes the mask n makes it a spawning enemy

is it like part of it this mod?

if its not im uninstalling it lol

(i dont man maskedai revamp uninstalling i mean im unistalling the mask overhaul)

[opal vortex]

@bitter willow no its not its optional

[bitter willow]

aight ty

[willow birch]

?????

[weary cloud]

Does this mod make masked dance? I forgot

[cyan osprey]

damn this looks nice

[cyan osprey]

i believe yes vanilla dance

it would be cool if they can do Lethal Emotes API dances lmao

[weary cloud]

So they don't use any modded dances?

[cyan osprey]

i dont think so

[slender kelp]

i believe too many emotes has support for masked using their emotes

[weary cloud]

Cuz when I played, this guys where shaking like they tried to perform a modded dance (from TooManyEmotes) but instantly canceled it

[cyan osprey]

yeah i wanted to ask if too many emotes is compatible with this mod

[cyan osprey]

maybe this mod conflicts with toomanyemotes masked ai

[slender kelp]

last i checked TooManyEmotes' masked emotes was in beta so it might have issues. i think the author of TooManyEmotes also added the masked emotes with this mod in mind

[weary cloud]

Or maybe it's pathfinding issues on modded interiors

[cyan osprey]

maybe. i have no idea tbh

[slender kelp]

just checked. the author of TooManyEmotes actually added the masked emotes with MaskedEnemyOverhaul in mind, so sorry for the misinfo

[main canopy]

Does it work with MaskedEnemyOverhaul? Or is there issues?

[cyan osprey]

i think it should work because overhaul doesn't alter masked ai

[midnight bronze]

do we have any sort of eta for tyhe mod release

is this host only?

[spiral rampart]

the mod is on thunderstore already

not finished yet obviously

[midnight bronze]

sorry meant to say for v47 update

also is this host only?

[spiral rampart]

idk

[runic haven]

49 didnt change anything ai related so probably safe to just not think abt that

[proud ingot]

I believe not as it requires networking

[midnight bronze]

also this is compatilbity with masked enemy overhuaL?

[spiral rampart]

yes

theres no reason for it not to be

[midnight bronze]

ok nice

[wary quartz]

I know masked can pick up scrap with this mod, but will it use them? Personally, if I see someone with a clown horn in their hands and it’s NOT honking, I’m distrusting them even if they’re actually human

[spiral rampart]

There is currently a bug so they don't honk 😦

[midnight bronze]

is the update for v47 in devolopment

[stone flax]

it already works with v47

[midnight bronze]

I think when I added this mod, masked is hardly spawn

Or not at all

I have the mask overhaul

Before adding this, they commonly spawn

[plush urchin]

if piggy is still accepting random personalities, outside of all the boring hotfixing and optimisation (which is a massive task best of luck piggy)

Here is another proposal, simplify it all you want if it does pique your interest

Camper
State 1. -- Standing nearby the entrances or exit either looking down at the collecting items the crew has procured, or already holding an item themselves they will wait and camp for a player to eventually enter their line of sight.

State 2. -- When done so they will pause and continue staring at the items, if the player talks it should make eye contact or entertain their presence either emoting or otherwise, if a prolonged amount of time passes it will immediately burst into a sprint bee lining for the player in attempt to kill.

State 3. -- If the player does not stay for a prolonged time or interact with the camper, it will move shortly behind the player picking up a heavy item walking behind infrequently sprinting. entering the ship and dropping it. It then enters State 2 Again.

[primal ridge]

any updates on the state of this mod? haven't seen any messages in a while

[proud ingot]

think Piggy's busy with life

[midnight bronze]

phppfh, bro thinks he can enjoy life

[plush urchin]

fair as hell seriously excited to see this mod go places though :> (hopefully)

[finite mesa]

How usable is this mod currently

[night ruin]

Me and my crew have had very funny interactions, it's been fantastic

[finite mesa]

Compatibility / stability wise?

[spiral rampart]

more than like 2 masked will lag your game

[wild lava]

does more emotes work with this

[main canopy]

For real? qwq

[spiral rampart]

well thats what everyone else has said

I havent been lucky enough to encounter that many

or unlucky I suppose

[night ruin]

Compatibility wise we have 110 mods and I've noticed no conflicts with maskedenemyoverhaul and skinwalkers, performance may vary, I have maskedenemyoverhaul set the max spawned masked to 2 and run the game on an SSD so there's no real noticeable performance hit

[finite mesa]

nice :D

I will be putting it in my pack for next time

[spiral rampart]

sorry for the lack of updates, MaskedAIRevamp will work after LethalNetworkAPI is updated to 2.0.0

[marble steppe]

so not anytime soon 😭

[granite grove]

Is it required for everyone to have it? Or just host?

[spiral rampart]

everyone needs it

[proud ingot]

you're making me feel bad for splitting up my time on two things xd

[lean onyx]

looking so forward to test this without lag

[warm vessel]

Does that mean less fps drop?

[spiral rampart]

idk

some multiplayer bugs will be fixed

[plush urchin]

take your time dawg 👍

its so good even when its unstable

so excited for the finisxhed product

[night ruin]

I was wondering if any sort of interaction with the cupboard could be made? I got properly outplayed last night when a masked came to the ship thinking it was my mate with a shovel, thought he was just putting it away, skinwalkers really selling it then I got beat

I was thinking it'd sell it even more if they are able to even just open the doors of the cupboard and stare at it for a sec

[worldly sage]

what is this error

[torpid mulch]

in my professional opinion it looks like something went wrong.

just a hunch

[willow birch]

quit possible

[worldly sage]

mr janator

i seem to bleed from my anus

[torpid mulch]

that seems like it isnt my problem

take it up with the company doctor

[worldly sage]

it indeed isnt

[fervent kestrel]

My bad if this has already been asked, but would this work together with the MaskedEnemyOverhaul mod byHomelessginger?

[worldly sage]

it does

[spiral rampart]

That's weird I've never touched anything like that

It seems like a bug

[zealous crown]

if you play vanilla ofc Masked is hard found only Rend and Titan found.
if you using BrutalCompany+ and setting EnemyAllSpawn, Masked will setting 25 Rarity Enemy

this is mod [MaskedAIRevamp] only make masked like player

Basically, all locations will not spawn "Masked" enemies because the game is set up that way. but if you use BrutalCompany+ it's a different story

Ex: Custom Moons Atlas Abyss is setting MaskedEnemyRarity is 50 ( by owner made that moons Zingar )

[zealous crown]

Yes, the same as vanilla but only changes the Rarity of the Monster depending on the Moon that can be spawned.

Example: Experiment Moons, in the experiment moon there is a DressGirl (Ghost Girl) but Jester has no rarity, meaning Jester cannot be spawned. just like Masked, masked doesn't exist in Experiment Moons only in Rend and Titan

[zealous crown]

Meaning Masked: 0. imposibled for spawn without Mod Patched like BrutalCompany+ or MaskedEnemyOverHaul

it seems you misunderstood.
So like this, if the mod really messes up the game, in the sense that the patcher has completely changed, then it can be spawned.

Meanwhile I tried "LethalUtilities" and only changed the Rarity of the Monster which could only be displayed in that month like Vanilla (that game)

sry using translate maybe kinda weird word

i using BrutalCompany+ only for Make AllEnemySpawn every Moons, For Event i using Hullbreaker Company

[spiral rampart]

hey guys

this mod plays well with masked overhaul?

[marble steppe]

yessir

[spiral rampart]

thx

[zealous crown]

ya basicly i already told
Different Moons = Different Enemy
Not All Enemy can show like what u want, the game already setting by Zeekers for Balancing. Your mod LethalUtilities can't Change that only BrutalCompany+. LethalUtilities only Change Rarity not Change make SpawnRarity Every Moon what u want.

Like Experimentation Moon from Original Game make Disabled the Enemy SPRING and That IMPOSIBLED If No Patchers EnableAllEnemy. Look my Picture dude how can be hard? u can see different Vanilla vs BrutalCompany+ on Moon Experimentation

y i know my Eng so Broken but why so hard understand about Picture and i already give Example??????

cause you still not understand e.e

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1180192298252894310.webp?size=48&name=sad&quality=lossless

[torpid mulch]

what does this mean?

[thick mesa]

It just looks like something abt the one of the mask AI types using the terminal

I got no idea what it means other than that

[static musk]

switch

[spiral rampart]

I'm aware of the issue, but I'm not sure exactly where it is 😭 I'll try to fix it later

[willow birch]

Yeah I was getting that a ton earlier

Funniest shit ever happened btw

Was playing the Atlas Abuss custom moon which has very high masked spawns

Everyone dies and one person manages to get back to the ship AND THERES LIKE 7 MASKED JUST CHILLING IN THERE

I think they were all tryna fuck with the terminal lmao

[wicked notch]

This mod is awesome. I had something happen last night where I went into the ship and one of the masked had an item and was chilling in the ship. It turns around and cause I had skinwalker just drops a voiceline from my friend before grabbing me. I was shocked! 😂

[royal sparrow]

can this mod conflict with gamemaster? cuz the masked that i spawned cant grab me and attack me (gmod was off)

[gray field]

can you remove the mask though?

[rocky elk]

is it possible that they just randomly despawn?
I had one chasing me and after 3 seconds when I didn't look and didn't run too far it completely disappeared. I went looking but couldn't find it

[rocky elk]

often the masked enemies pick up items and go back to the main door. but they do it facing you when you follow them. so they walk backwards and you can expose them immediately. also they never sprint doing that (what a normal player would probably do)

[stuck moss]

if someone can be a G, what error causes the mimics objects they're holding to float within the ship?

[night ruin]

I think that's just how the game handles child objects, like the nutcracker's shotgun, except in the case of the masked I don't think the items are being told "parent object gone", so they just float and can't be grabbed

As for things to raise about the Masked AI, I've seen none use the terminal, we often move it to the right side of the ship and none have ever been on it, I suspect they don't get told it's in a new area from it's default starting position?

[night ruin]

I've had it where they have been completely invisible apart from the floating badge, seen this happen twice and I'm not sure if it was caused by this, vanilla jank or outdoor spawns

100% vanilla jank 😂 https://youtu.be/LKCAOxXNIbo?si=pR0PrMBeRpG-pTX5

[rocky elk]

oh yea... teleporting masked enemies has been a problem for a long time in the vanilla game

[night ruin]

No it's not the teleporting it's that when exiting the dungeon they can straight up be invisible

[rocky elk]

never had that when a masked actually physically went out the main entrance

[night ruin]

Yeah I have a video of it, masked came out the fron entrance and took my friend's shovel, was just a floating shovel coming to the ship but shortly after loaded in

[rocky elk]

okay might be an issue with this mod as i never experienced this in vanilla

[spiral rampart]

I experienced something similar while developing a mod

It may be a mod bug

of course it could be a vanilla bug

[stone flax]

the networking thing 2.0 released i thinke

[night ruin]

Yee it did

[willow birch]

DUB

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/xilophor/LethalNetworkAPI/versions/

It is in fact on 2.0 now

[spiral rampart]

✅

[harsh hazel]

The double kill

[old forum]

god damn that is a hunter

can't wait for this to be perfected so me and my friends can start insulting each other telling to stop griefing just to find out it was a damn mimic to screw us over

[spiral rampart]

^

[half falcon]

would this have masked hit people with a shovel or custom weapon?

i mean the masked overhaul kinda makes a doppelganger with our names, if that hits you, they will think they are just griefing in general

[night ruin]

They can use shotguns 🙂

[half falcon]

kinda had one of my doppelganger backflip in front of me and landed on it's side to assert dominance once. but if it could use weapons. it would be a nice duel.

[spiral rampart]

some may use shovels 🫠

[half falcon]

i know some of them can pick up the portable ladder but never saw them use the shovel before

tho i kinda dont like that they teleport when using the ladder. it makes it kinda obvious

[spiral rampart]

they attack with shovels under special conditions

[half falcon]

i was trying to hit one from the ladder and it teleported to me in point black before ahaha

[half falcon]

if i hit them in the head?

is it possible for them to loot stuff and act like a crewmate for a while?

as in like pick up random scrap and go to the ship and drop it?

i mean paired it with the masked overhaul it would make a perfect copy of someone

not sure if its compatible tho

[spiral rampart]

Is it compatible, yea

[half falcon]

a friend of mine got tricked by that one. since that copy of mine kinda just looked at him and walked away and he followed it

and it turned back and attacked

paired with my voice from the skinwalker. saying "lets go check there" it ended up a deadly combo lol

[spiral rampart]

||they will find a shovel and attack the person holding the shotgun if the player is holding a shotgun and they do not find any shotguns nearby that they can pick up. only masked with an aggressive personality perform this behavior.||

[half falcon]

||can they not just pickup items if we dont have the gun?||

it would be nice if they can actually loot anything and go to the ship and drop some loot while acting like us. before they go for the kill

[spiral rampart]

||If they don't have an aggressive personality, they will pick up the scraps around them||

[half falcon]

i mean if they can emote. why not act completely like a person and "loot and go to ship" kinda mindset?

[half falcon]

||how will i know if its aggressive?||

[spiral rampart]

||you can't see it, it's just a name in the code||

[half falcon]

oh its %

but can we have a config for them to drop loot in the ship?

kinda like the ghostcodes. she is either helpful or your enemy

[spiral rampart]

It was originally programmed that way... but now it's buggy and doesn't work

[half falcon]

sadge

it woulit would be nice if they can. at least once i die ingame. they can at least troll my friends ahahaha

[plush urchin]

I’m still proud of this little concept, :> which reminds me do you want me to try to compile some recommendations for masked ai made by everyone in this thread, and toss a doc in here? Or don’t worry about it.

Not implying you should make all of them just that it could spark a few ideas

[spiral rampart]

I'm taking note of all the suggestions here 🙂 thanks for the suggestions as always 👍

[half falcon]

i can imagine a fake version of my self loots my stuff and body and goes to the ship

and they would realise it late

and would go "who died"

[stone flax]

still hoping for an "all personalities" setting

(aka all personalities merged into one)

[half falcon]

that seems hard ahaha

[night ruin]

I've got a couple because I have loved this mod since it went into Beta and it's made for some very exciting experiences

• Masked should be able to open the cabinet doors on the ship like it's looking for items, maybe even crouch to look a bit further down
• Hovering around the loot pile in the ship to fakeout anyone on monitors as if coming in to drop items, I swear my friends had this happen but may just be coincidence
• Updated Terminal location pathfinding, I have never seen the masked on the terminal in my sessions because I believe they do not know it was moved to the other side of the ship
• Random shovel swings when holding a shovel, when I have one i'm always swinging to hit random things like barriers and walls
• Hovering around the control panel of the ship, they usually sit around the entrance but staying at the ship looking at the monitor is a good one to fool people
• Item dropping on death? I saw that they were originally supposed to drop the items but bugged out, I know Symbiosis has a fix for lootbugs dropping items on death

[plush urchin]

Thank you for spending time reading them

[rocky elk]

its weird that they never decide to follow you and attack.
they always mind their own business if you don't get too close

[rocky elk]

the problem is you can see it from a mile away that its an enemy

also they get stuck in emoting when you emote in front of them
if you wanna immobilize a masked just emote in front of him and he will be stuck there forever

[thorny hearth]

i thought this mod was bugged, but you are still playing with it?

[nocturne totem]

We’re waiting until the mod is more optimized, we use MEO (masked enemies overhaul) and it does sometimes have more than 2 masked. I’ve seen peoples here saying that if more than 2 appear, it start affect fps and some people have frame drop.

[spiral rampart]

honestly

my game doesnt lag with multiple masked like others have said

dont know why

first of all, it is true that the mod has not been optimized yet 😥

It's going to take a while because there's quite a lot to fix

[night ruin]

Regardless you are doing stellar work, I can't wait to see how this mod and the office interior progresses 🫡

[nocturne totem]

Piggy, we put your mod was put on a gold list when you first posted this mod. The day this gold bar of a mod will be ready, we’ll put it as a core mod in our modpack. A must have to anyone who want to play with mods.

[old forum]

take your time, we cannot expect greatness to be made in a short amount of time!

[frigid kayak]

do everyone needs this mod or only the host?

nvm

i saw into the read me

i forgot it even existed 💀

[frigid kayak]

so when i install this mod it just makes my FPS lower a lot

from 60 > 3

but i understand it because you said its not optimized, so im gonna wait

but the mod is so good

[old forum]

i just realized something.

[old forum]

The fps drop you just had, would perhaps the performance enhancer mod actually help with that?

[frigid kayak]

just a little

normally it increases like 15 fps

but with this mod it doesn't

not sure why tho?

[old forum]

i mean its not the two mods are on the same page.
One makes the vanilla game lighter, one just changes the AI of an entity.

i thought perhaps the performance mod would make the game lighter so you would get more fps as a base, the masked mod would still give framedrops but thanks to the performance mod it wouldn't be a 60-10 fps drop, but it would be for example, a 150-100 fps drop.

But apparently it doesn't work that way, so oh well.

[frigid kayak]

maybe it could be log spamming thats causing fps to drop?

cause when playing with that mod it really spams my console

[old forum]

i mean, there were other mods that spammed the console for what i remember

although never gave me those issues

[exotic kayak]

make it compatible with moreemotes? idk

also if its close enough to use a shovel

just let it possess you

the funny part about the masked is that they spread like a virus

ive had 6 mimics bc my friends got taken 1 by 1

also how buggy is it

bc the mod says unstable

[plush urchin]

If there is more than 3 mimics the frame drops are very constant on average pcs

[plush urchin]

Relatively sure overhaul makes mimics dance and whatever through moremotes compatibility

[exotic kayak]

oh okay

ill try it and say how it goes

prolly on a different account

[nimble mirage]

ping

[proud ingot]

pong

[karmic wind]

Anyone know what the stealth masked do?

[hardy cobalt]

Fps drops to 1. with a lot errors. idk what happened. after uninstall this mod fbs become stables

[spiral rampart]

yes

everyone knows this

the mod pages says this mod is unstable

[hardy cobalt]

well i believe my logs may help

[tranquil canyon]

When will we get the masked to be able to use MoreEmotes, any sane person emotes every 5s

[willow birch]

TooManyEmotes has their own implementation to make Masked emote

It's gotten people a few times lol

[half falcon]

yeah they mostly emote whenever they see you

whenever i see my doppelganger it would do this.

[sudden token]

My brother and I were testing out some moons and interiors and got swarmed by an army of mimics lmfao

[old forum]

you've alerted the horde

https://tenor.com/view/left4dead2-gif-26266087

[night ruin]

I've played Ether a few times with no issues like this, the lag is tied to the amount of masked however, we get quite laggy on Atlas Abyss because of the outside spawns, the sweet spot is 2 masked, 3 and above lags a lot but Piggy is aware, I think focus is on LC_Office at the moment

[half falcon]

having more masked is laggy?

or with the MaskedAI mod?

[sudden token]

Yeah, if you see there were at least 10 lol

And ether with lc_office is framerate hell

Despite them being a perfect match

[night ruin]

MaskedAi, masked themselves aren't too bad, but AIRevamp changes a lot, I think it's node checking and stuff like that

Like how titan brackens cause lag

[exotic kayak]

ye i was in experiment and 20 left the building at the same time

[midnight bronze]

lol

[rigid valve]

Does this play well with the mod that removes the mask from masked enemies?

[exotic kayak]

which mod is that

[rigid valve]

MaskedEnemyRework

[exotic kayak]

uh

dame un second

[exotic kayak]

maskedenemyoverhaul u mean?

[rigid valve]

Yea that one

[exotic kayak]

ye

its one of the mods in the compatability section

[rigid valve]

Is that in pins here? I’m on mobile idk where pins is on the app 😭

[exotic kayak]

nah

just thunderstore

[rigid valve]

how unstable is this mod?

[exotic kayak]

kinda unstable

bugs happen pretty often

also fps drops when 3 masked spawn

sometimes 100 masked spawn and idk why

[spiral rampart]

basic optimization work is completed 😄
now even if you spawn up to 6 Masked, there is not much change in frame rate (Based on my PC)

I will update after I fix some bugs

40 masked = -15~25 fps

[karmic wind]

I never got bad lag when there was a lot of masked only on custom moons. Is this what we are all talking about,

Atlas abyss was unplayable because of the lag

[spiral rampart]

yes I just checked and there is a mod conflict with atlas abyss

[stone flax]

the swarm

how do you access all the debug unity stuff?

[spiral rampart]

LethalDevMode

[stone flax]

that's just the item/enemy spawning

[spiral rampart]

oh

[spiral rampart]

thats UnityExplorer

https://github.com/sinai-dev/UnityExplorer

[stone flax]

i see

[lyric sigil]

this happened when i went into a fire exit and my frames dropped to a steady 1 until i left the game haha

[frigid kayak]

WHAT?? Already?????????

how

[lyric sigil]

@spiral rampart this is happening frequently now lol, i have a decently beefy pc too. just making sure this bug is known 🙂 this mod is awesome btw

[spiral rampart]

MaskedAIRevamp 0.2.0

ᶠᶦˣᵉᵈ

• A lot of optimization work has been done so you don't have to suffer from lag anymore.
• Fixed "UsingTerminal" softlock.
• Fixed an issue where soft locks would occasionally occur when landing.
• Made compatible with LethalNetworkAPI 2.1.0.

[thick mesa]

Frightened

Dangers/Behaviors

• Frightened AIs are able to aggro/interact with monsters, as a real player can, and will try to lead them to the closest player if it’s being chased.
• Frightened AIs turn around much more often to observe their surroundings, much like a paranoid player would.

Strategies/Weaknesses

• Frightened AIs can’t infect you, but will instead try to grab you and keep you still so other monsters can do the job. If the player is hit by a monster while grabbed, it’ll let go of them.
• Players can use items while they’re grabbed, and the masked can’t hold them forever, so if the player has a weapon/stun method, or waits long enough, the masked will let go.
• Frightened AIs run less often than other AIs, allowing the player to get more distance between them and the Masked.
• Frightened AIs only take 3 hits to kill.

[night ruin]

Absolute legend! Thank you for your hard work and effort 🫡

[marble steppe]

thanks brother, hopefully we can see more updates in the future 🔥

[frigid kayak]

incredible.

i must say

[spiral rampart]

the optimization work wouldn't have been possible if I hadn't started developing lc office, I gained experience by trying many different things

[dusky venture]

I created masks in my assembly (018d4274-a886-137a-1e79-5719010aace1) and wanted to check their behavior, they don't even attack, even with the front hand and that's it, sometimes they wear loot. But most importantly, they don't dance at the sight of a player from the TooManyEmotes mod. Is there any way to fix this? @spiral rampart

Check in my build (disable the Russian language of xUnity if it gets in the way)

[spiral rampart]

yep not yet compatible with TooManyEmotes

do you have a log file?

[dusky venture]

You need to play the situation in real time: Host + Client player

If you don't mind, we could have a drink together.

[frigid kayak]

umm

with the mod installed i get these errors and my fps gets stuck at 3

idk if the errors are related to maskedrevamp but my fps only got like this after i installed

its the newest version

and i think only after the first masked spawns

because i set the spawn to after 12pm

[spiral rampart]

on which moon did the error occur?

[frigid kayak]

march

[spiral rampart]

hmm

ill check

[karmic wind]

The masked always seem to walk aimlessly and not really attack me unless I walk in their path

[vocal stump]

Yo

How stable is the mod looking?

[zealous crown]

if see desc thunderstore they remove [Unstable] maybe now stable but little bug i think?

[spiral rampart]

i'll change it to beta from the next update

[spiral rampart]

It's now relatively stable, but may still have some bugs

[vocal stump]

Ive been eargarly waiting to add this to my modpack without issue

[runic haven]

what do

[vocal stump]

Oh

What are the incompatibilties of this mod as well

[worldly sage]

Log spam intensifies

[zealous crown]

welp this is Mod broken if Custom Moons like " Atlas Abyss ". my fps drop :/

[thorny hearth]

any idea what this error is?

[exotic kayak]

what debug mod is that lol

oh its dev mod

nvm found it

[keen delta]

@spiral rampart Just wanted to ask real quick, but I'm not sure if your mod does anything related to dancing or not, but for TooManyEmotes, I think I added the dancing implementation before you posted this mod, or soon after? (unless I'm thinking about another mod)
But I did plan on reaching out when it was released to see if it conflicted with any of your plans haha. I just didn't want to create any incompatibilities.
Idk, but let me know!

[spiral rampart]

first of all, I think there may be a conflict with TooManyEmotes because Masked uses its own Animator Controller in this mod

[keen delta]

Is the animator a clone of the original animator controller? Like does it have the same layer names and state names?
I guess, if it is a clone and you added/edited states, what kind of changes got made?
If it's a clone, and the layer names and existing state names are the same, I believe my mod should be designed to still use it. I guess I'd have to confirm later since I'm at work, but there could be many factors lol

But like if your mod performs dances, too, then that's something I could probably plan around, or maybe prevent my dances if I needed to if your mod is enabled maybe

[worn void]

After AC and emotes, y'all got to decide if you want gameplay or emotes 😛 haha

[spiral rampart]

or maybe you can tell me the names/types of the parameters in TooManyEmotes' animator? I'll create another animator controller and have it set Masked's animator to it when it detects TooManyEmotes.

[keen delta]

I use the existing animator controllers on the characters/masked enemies, so all of the parameters/layers/states are the same. I just convert the animation controllers to AnimatorOverrideControllers so that I can replace clips on the fly. I was a little skeptical about creating my own AnimatorController and replacing it for compat reasons, or just breaking existing code in general lol.

My mod basically temporarily replaces their "idle" animation with a random emote that the player has unlocked. It does increase their stop and stare time by a bit, but that's the only real mechanic change, and I tried to make it minimal. Not sure if that part alone causes any issues with this mod.

So if you did have your own animatorcontroller on the masked enemies, but the layer/idle state names are the same, it might technically be fine, but my main concern was having both our mods try to make them dance.

Hopefully that information is helpful!

[exotic kayak]

you should prolly make infection a priority for them

cuz it looks like they prioritize killing you rather than

[thorny hearth]

which emotes mod does this mod work with?

[thorny hearth]

my log is just spamming this whenever a masked is spawned

i also got some of these errors

[hollow stump]

their ai is kinda bugged

they kinda dont have good priorities

they just stare at me and all of them go back to the shio

dont even kill me

they just sit in the corner like they parta the gang

[rigid valve]

I have this same issue

Very scary, but not very agressive

[karmic wind]

Same

Goofy little guys

[half falcon]

Attack them

they will attack once you do

or get too close to their attack box lol

we had 4 and went to our ship and tried to replae us. used the terminal and me and my friend was wondering who ordered something so i asked her if she bought something and she said "i thought you bought something" because both of us could hear the delivery music even inside the dungeon

[worldly sage]

this maked ai feels revamped

[half falcon]

@spiral rampart btw. is there an issue if i move the terminal sideways? would the masked still pathfind to it?

they kinda dont go to the ship when i do

at most they would all swarm us from all sides

specially on titan. one would look at you from afar, one would sneak behind, one would run at you head first lol.

[spiral rampart]

It probably doesn't matter, but I'll check

[spiral rampart]

this error doesn't mean much. This error occurs simply because the player's animation is used.
you can ignore it

[spiral rampart]

oh

[half falcon]

because of huntdown. i usually get like 6 Masked

4 from Last month employee's and 2 from either the Lethal Escape or the high difficulty moon.

tho one thing i hate about the masked is that they dont stagger. hitting them doesnt really slow them down

needs spam clicking against them

[spiral rampart]

Masked moving to the ship uses the original code from lc

[half falcon]

hmm.. cuz 4 of the masked kinda just stuck in a line trying to use the terminal when we played yesterday

one was typing aggressively. one was waiting for his turn, the other was waiting too long that he tried cutting the line. the 4th one gave up and went towards us

kinda funny they dropped the delivery ship tho

it was loud even in the dungeon

i thought it was an item doing the music at first

[spiral rampart]

lol

[half falcon]

i shouldve taken a video of it

cuz it was a rare chance

[half falcon]

@spiral rampart can you add a config where masked just straight up kill you without converting you unless they kill you?

ill become infected only when they hit me too hard with the shovel or something

[primal ridge]

i noticed on the readme that there is skinwalkers integration
what exactly are the features? and is it compatible with the experimental branch of skinwalkers

[exotic kayak]

theres kinda no reason to tho, just having them there is funny

[median crown]

uhh they refuse to drop items when using terminal and eventually get stuck

[spiral rampart]

||they use walkies||

[primal ridge]

oh i see

[rocky elk]

is that still the case? Do you have that in mind?

[spiral rampart]

I'll try it when I have time

[plain spade]

Is this mod compatible with more emotes and badass company?

[spiral rampart]

probably not

[thorny kayak]

Hello @spiral rampart, would you mind if asked a two questions about your mod? I want to get some footage and document it.

[spiral rampart]

sure

[thorny kayak]

Are there any specific moons where the shrimp and office have a higher chance of spawning?
If so, what would those moons be?

[dusky venture]

@spiral rampart they still haven't attacked yet?
They just run around and carry out their treacherous actions.

[spiral rampart]

oh thats #1196943144009351258

[plain spade]

Would the emotes mess with the mimics? Or would mimics just not do them (just wondering if it would work in my mod pack) thanks in advance

[spiral rampart]

I do not know. Not yet stable enough to use in modpacks 😅

[plain spade]

Ok thanks

[half falcon]

i have this mod with toomanyemotes

its not exactly breaking

more like they just get stuck on the terminal most of the time

if they do enter the ship

[plain spade]

That’s good; I might experiment with it, but I already have 90 mods, so I’m worried that something will clash.

[half falcon]

i have 153 as of now after culling 40

[plain spade]

Ok cool; are there any frame drops or lag?

[half falcon]

depends on the pc i guess?

mine runs fine

144fps

what are you even running tho?

you will only lag if you have a ton of entities

like that Abyss Atlas map

[plain spade]

Our mods aren’t that taxing, mostly quality of life, cosmetics, and new entities/scrap/store items, no modded moons or interiors

[half falcon]

should try it

you will know your answer once you try it

tho if you have HD things like changing the textures. then yeah you will have fps drops

[plain spade]

I will, hopefully everything will work fine 👍

[thorny hearth]

which emotes does this work with?

[spiral rampart]

only default dance for now

[half falcon]

btw piggy. you made that zoom on the monitor right?

are you able to add extra buttons on top of that? for opening and closing the ship door?

[half falcon]

and is MaskedOvehaul and TooManyEmotes compatible with this mod? havent encountered tha mask in clear daylight. most of the time foggy weather or thunderstorms

they still copy the suit tho

not sure about emotes

but at least they can drop the delivery ship as far as the tests go

[spiral rampart]

MaskedEnemyOvehaul definitely works but I'm not sure about TooManyEmotes

people say it works, but I haven't tested it

[half falcon]

all i know that my friends always get killed by my doppelganger

to the point they always point a shovel at me when i go near lol

"Are you Real!?!" then i proceed to walk and run into them

[spiral rampart]

lmao

[spiral rampart]

I'll try this one later

[half falcon]

thanks

i really need a clean button than that floating one that is kinda delayed

so i can enable GeneralImprovement's Better Monitors so i can put the internal cam looking at the entrance to survive blind dogs more

cuz my friends keep summoning them lol

plus one of them keep hoarding the cats from NeedyCats mod. they also attract a lot of blind dogs

[dusky venture]

It would be interesting someday to see a mod that, when generating a complex, created used walkie-talkies, green lanterns with a small battery charge, several corpses from an old expedition, or a hint that there is a mimic somewhere here.

[half falcon]

go #1188298686560739389

and post that there

also..
Generating Complex? what complex?
Used Walki Talkies? as in like scrap drop around the map?
Green Lanterns? we going to DC universe?
Several Corpses are Masked really and Huntdown has that bounty where you fight past corrupted Interns already.
Mimics. which type? we have Mimic mod already. unless you want Scrap Mimic then i think someone is already working on that

[spiral rampart]

He's saying when a dungeon is generated, non fully powered walkie talkies will spawn as scrap, so will flashlights (lanterns) to imply others were here and are now infected by masks.

[half falcon]

lanterns

i think we have some already?

sadly the glow stick thing is broken. people used that to mark areas before

but with this Mod they take the scraps really..

also where is the fun when you know one is infected lol

we have MaskedOverhaul and MaskedAI for that reason

[dusky venture]

)))

[half falcon]

tho if marking a way. people use Spray paint

[half falcon]

tho making the old Phone a working radio seems a good idea

he can also still use the Fancy Lamp for that Lantern thing

its a vanilla scrap to begin with

[spiral rampart]

what are you talking about

[spiral rampart]

no i mean

[spiral rampart]

do you understand what that person was saying

[half falcon]

im saying as a replacement for those "used walkie talkies" and the Lantern

to begin with. walkie talkie isnt that expensive in the shop

at most you only need 2

one for the guy in the ship

and one for the explorers

its only 12 man

and most of the time it also gets discounts

i just stack those in the shelf box

[spiral rampart]

they werent asking for new scrap

[half falcon]

i know

those what i mentioned arent new scraps either

they are vanilla scraps

[spiral rampart]

they were asking for existing items in game to spawn in the interior

to insinuate a masked killed players

[half falcon]

you find which ones are already infected by masked

people either check the radar

or just straight up talk to them really

one way to troll teammates too.

walk towards them

[spiral rampart]

No he means that when you first enter a dungeon

items only a player would use would be on the floor somewhere

implying a player was killed

so naturally spawning masked arent just getting their bodies from nothing

[half falcon]

i forgot where i read that but they only mentioned that they are Former Interns

[spiral rampart]

yeah

[half falcon]

i mean we have that Sigurd Lore

[spiral rampart]

and he wants more of that

more remnants of former interns

[half falcon]

if he wants Lore. he should request that to the developer really. than mod

to have authentic lore

[spiral rampart]

yeah

I was just explaining what his

[half falcon]

modding new lore isnt as good

[spiral rampart]

poor grammar sentence said

[half falcon]

because when i read his statement. it looks like he wants items

well.

thats an entirely different mod

a Lore based Mod will be Bound to the Moon and interior

[dusky venture]

Just the advent of walkie-talkie tools and flashlights with different battery levels

nothing more

masks or corpses, it doesn't matter

just add the atmosphere that someone has already been here and died

I have already submitted the idea, all that remains is to wait for the person who wants to implement it

[dusky venture]

No, not that

[half falcon]

this

i know

i said as a substitute

[serene magnet]

any chance of moreemotes compatibility in the future? i want masked to hit the griddy after killing me

[half falcon]

just take TooManyEmotes

[rigid valve]

Theres another glowstick mod

[half falcon]

which one? and its not broken as the one i mentioned right? the one with the dimming flashlight mod

[rigid valve]

Not sure of the exact name, but there’s only two, one depends on LCAPI and is broken for me, and the other works fine

[half falcon]

name?

[plain spade]

Great mod! Has been working! Keep up the good work!

[rigid valve]

There’s 2 mods, if u search glow stick you’ll find it

[half falcon]

no. im just asking which one is working.

cuz i do know they break the terminal when using it

[barren escarp]

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/NotAtomicBomb/TerminalApi/

Have the Glowstic mod and are unable to leave the terminal? Try This

[half falcon]

it auto installs that

made me unable to leave the terminal

so i removed both

also it desyncs us

so i was wondering if any glowstick mod is fixed

[barren escarp]

Did you do this part?

2. Look for "LC_API.cfg"
3. Click edit config for "LC_API.cfg"
4. Look for "Legacy asset bundle loading"
5. Set it to true
6. Click Save in top right```

[full oak]

hey
I have problems with the glowstick mod too
for some reason it cant load the store correctly

[barren escarp]

If this doesn't work I don't know how to help with that Glowstick mod. There is an alternative here: #1199811186913448056 message

Also, this is not the place to talk about random other mods giving errors anyway (my apologies for contributing)—if you really want to you can continue #1191190696581926922 message this thread if the proposed solution doesn't work.

[rotund island]

i had a bug where i was spectating my friend and i couldnt see the masked enemy use the terminal he was just standing still in the middle of the ship

my friend said he was using the terminal

[cyan osprey]

is this normal?

what does this exactly do? because i switched to https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1200695291972685926 instead of skinwalkers mod

[rotund island]

is it normal for them to camping at the ship?

[merry goblet]

i think they usually get stuck on the terminal once they get on it

[rotund island]

is this mod dead or is it being updated

[merry goblet]

it's being updated but the author is more focused on #1196943144009351258 right now

[primal ridge]

||makes skinwalker voice clips play through the walkie iirc||

[cyan osprey]

ohhh

[primal ridge]

im not rly a fan of it in the first place

[cyan osprey]

it would be nice if it works with https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1200695291972685926

this cause so much lag

please fix it

[half falcon]

send your Log Output to them

so they can diagnose the problem

[spiral rampart]

they can just put a try function and make it so it dont spam

[cyan osprey]

@spiral rampart can you make this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1190848624402386985/1203285030022029362/image.png?ex=65d08983&is=65be1483&hm=41996f3f71ec9eeeb88388ec8e788628b201673d2d11c625fd69b13ad71fcbbe& also work with https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1200695291972685926 ? Mirage is similar to skinwalkers where masked enemies use voice lines but it’s synced to all players.

[half falcon]

seems like a deadly combo if they do

[midnight bronze]

this spams in log

causes lag

[lean onyx]

i had 4 masked spawned in at once from a mod and got a solid 39 fps with very limited mods

nothing sent to my console thats caused by the mod i think either

yeah 0 errors related to the mod itself

the level was titan and the mod was huntdown it spawnd the event that spawns 4 masked enemies

[bitter willow]

can u download this mod yet?

[fathom karma]

yes

[warm vessel]

I second this! this is sick!

[lean onyx]

havent had much issues tbh

[half falcon]

btw. TakeThatMaskOff affects this MaskedAIRevamp?

MaskedEnemyOverhaul, TakeThatMaskOff, MaskedAIRevamp and Mirage seems like a fun combo

[rotund island]

why this mod dead >:(

[carmine cloud]

why would u need MEO tho? Mirage does all of that besides zombie horde mode, no?

[half falcon]

Custom suits

and the fake names

[carmine cloud]

i see. fair. does toomanyemotes' masked emote feature work for you in that setup? or are you not using it in favor of this AIRevamp?

[spiral rampart]

what do you mean custom suits

[night ruin]

Piggy is busy with LC_Office, one hell of an undertaking with the amount of desync problems that has had

[night ruin]

MEO gives the masked the same worn suits as players

I'll throw in my 2 cents here as well, reserved flashlight slot and hidden names are both great additions to make the masked more difficult to distinguish, flip added a sneaky feature for your flashlight to appear and be used on the masked bodies

[spiral rampart]

doesnt mirage also do that

[night ruin]

I dunno

I need to look into that mod, I haven't seen any changes that were made

[spiral rampart]

Im pretty sure it does

[night ruin]

Yeah it does

I'm guessing MEO adds the spawns to all moons in that case

[spiral rampart]

yea

[night ruin]

So does Mirage replace skinwalkers here?

[spiral rampart]

mirage is probably going to be a better skinwalkers and meo when finished

[night ruin]

Excellent thank you, I'm gonna have to give this a try out as the synced audio sounds great

[half falcon]

@spiral rampart i was away. but seems like someone answered it already lol

havent tested mirage yet

if they also get the cosmetics from MoreCompany or AC

or if the name shows

because it never said it did

when i was reading the updates on the thunderstore

or if they can emote using TooManyEmotes

[half falcon]

im using both. TooManyEmotes + MEO

i dont think Mirage has that emote thing too

[spiral rampart]

they do

[spiral rampart]

name doesnt

i think the dev might have said they will add it

idk

[half falcon]

running both has no problems right?

[spiral rampart]

the player the masked mimics might be messed up

atleast the cosmetics of the player it mimics

[carmine cloud]

with that setup masked enemies didn't emote for me they were just stuck in some static animation. It showed the sync emote options but yea the animation was borked.

[half falcon]

mine works fine tho?

they still freaking do that emote when i meet my doppelganger

https://tenor.com/view/tolfy-fennix-fortnite-flippin-sexy-flip-gif-26000910

[midnight bronze]

yea repalces all vanilla enemies, everything is synced.

[plain spade]

Would mirage work with this mod? Thank you in advance

[stone flax]

mirage doesn't change the behavior of masked at all, so probably yes it would work

[plain spade]

Ok thanks

[spiral rampart]

I'm so busy these days 😭

[cyan osprey]

It’s alright. I understand

[wooden coral]

Whenever the masks try to kill you when your in the ship they will try to use the terminal but then try to kill you which bugs the player to the point where they cant:
Move the camera
Vote to leave early
(Plenty of errors but I couldn't get the picture of it)

[rotund island]

im sorry for saying that

[spiral rampart]

it's ok

[half falcon]

seems like life is hard right now

[woven orchid]

I'm excited for when this mod gets updated
I love how the masked act but it is so goofy watching 3 masked ALL use the terminal

[half falcon]

there are a lot of mods i want to try once they update

tho it would be annoying if v50 would break them

[woven orchid]

If we ever get v50

At this rate

[half falcon]

they said it will happen soon

new monsters and such

[woven orchid]

Hopefully they do a lot of bug fixing
I'm tired of the countless vanilla bugs

[tranquil canyon]

Waiting for BadAssCompany and MoreEmotes compatability (make the masked use emotes from those mods)

[jade coral]

All enemies can emote, not just masked enemies

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Gemumoddo/EnemyInteractions/

[tranquil canyon]

No fucking way

zamn

[jade coral]

I believe Nekiyman's emote pack also can hook into this and have enemies do random emotes

[tranquil canyon]

can't wait to get killed by a bracken then have em emote on me

[jade coral]

Enemies will also emote unprompted periodically to taunt and screw with you

[half falcon]

https://tenor.com/view/lethal-company-bracken-dancing-gif-17660849031532348357

is this the thing you guys trying to recreate?

a Dance off with the monsters?

meanwhile i managed to recreate that viral chase unintentionally

it was a very annoying 3 minute run

till i ran out of upgaded stamina

i died to a freaking giant once i got out of the building tho. he freaking saw me miles away

[jade coral]

There might be more interactions down the line that we have planned like hooking into tf2 emotes and having bracken challenge you to a rock paper scissors duel to see if he is gonna kill you

And quite a few others but like

Takes time and our whole dev team is busy playing Persona 3 Reload this week

[half falcon]

i want a dance off

XD

[glad flame]

And last week and next week and probably the week after that lol

[half falcon]

imagine doing a dance off with a braken in VR

https://tenor.com/view/lethal-company-zoolander-employee-miner-gif-10043662146935244358

[glad flame]

Our emotes do technically work in VR already

But uhh, can't rebind stuff in VR so you still need keyboard to emote

And I can't speak to the camera as it won't be the best

But it does work

[half falcon]

cant VR have floating buttons?

[glad flame]

Probably

Haven't looked into it

From what I can tell the VR mod just uses stock UI and gives you a pointer

Meaning I think if we can bind a button to open the emote wheel it might just work

But again, haven't tested anything

[half falcon]

i mean TooManyEmotes have the emote wheel

[glad flame]

In VR?

[half falcon]

i mean in general

[glad flame]

Well yeah

[half falcon]

cant they have a button on that

[glad flame]

So do we

That's what I just said

[glad flame]

Lol

[half falcon]

oh yeah

lol

i didnt manage to read that

never had a vr

dunno how their buttons work

was interested tho

but they expensive as F

[glad flame]

Same issue as controllers tbh, but even less buttons

So it's kinda hard to fit everything in

[half falcon]

if someone trades their VR kit with my OLED switch which is brand new. maybe i can get one lol

i only have an OLED switch because i just want to own one. remembering my highschool days when PSP was a thing

i bought one. used it for 2 hours

then left it for a year in my drawer with a switch case

[fathom karma]

What if they "run away" from some monsters, to try to be even more convincing

[half falcon]

only if you managed to set the monsters to attack them

it wont be convincing otherwise

[tranquil canyon]

Will there be an addition for the masked to use items when agro? like stun grenades? drop ladders? etc?

Oh my god the fucking masked are just chef's kiss, the guy got exploded by a landmine, proceeded to do the fortnite default dance then die

[half falcon]

imagine a masked did a 360 no scope stun nade you then another 360 no scope shotgun to the head.

[tranquil canyon]

I'm always getting harassed online for being JFK

[half falcon]

wait. do we have a mod for instant replay? that would be nice to see How we actually die when get killed by someone or something

[tranquil canyon]

that would be cool

[half falcon]

i got nabbed by a bracken yesterday while i was troubleshooting my profile code after he shutdown the breaker.

i just heard a laugh

[half falcon]

not gonna lie. since im not wearing my glasses i thought it was KFC

my eyes hurt from Red colors

[tranquil canyon]

You're not the only one

I got this response about 30 times

[half falcon]

that photo reminds me of Einstein

but the buff version

[empty reef]

Is this mod stable? Or still buggy

[cyan osprey]

it is kinda stable. only thing i disabled from the config is masked being able to use terminal

but the performance is much better than before. it is very playable

[cyan osprey]

because we would get softlocked

[plain spade]

Does the host’s config sync?

[empty reef]

Do you use mirage too?

[cyan osprey]

yes

[empty reef]

Works good together?

And do you used masked enemy overhaul at all?

[cyan osprey]

yes and yes

the only feature from this mod that doesn't work with mirage is masked being able to use walkie talkie. they can only use walkie talkie with skinwalkers mod but not with mirage

[cyan osprey]

yes i use it for displaying username on masked enemies to trick my friends

and also for changing the spawn rate of masked

[empty reef]

Got it thank you for the info!

[cyan osprey]

np!

[restive burrow]

Hello!
When I use your mod BepInEx spams this error and masked does nothing when it watches player

Also we had desync issues when my partner started the ship to the orbit, but on the host side it was still on the land and the lever was unavailable

It only happens when masked is spawned

Here's the log

[half falcon]

will MaskedAIRevamp get affected by https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/AudioKnight/StarlancerAIFix/ ?

[safe yacht]

Masked already function inside and outside without getting stuck or acting too weird. It's primarily for enemies that don't naturally do that

[spiral rampart]

thats a normal error, and It will be fixed. even if this happens, you should still be able to play normally

[restive burrow]

Thank you. So, it's normal behavior, when masked grabs an item, never drops it and just stares at the player without any movement to the end of the day?

Also I noticed another issue: if masked grabs the turned on boombox near the ship, and the ship flies off, you can hear its music on the orbit

[spiral rampart]

for now, yes. but ill probably fix that later

[restive burrow]

Got it.
Good luck with development!

[fossil ivy]

Other than addressing the issue of the masked getting stuck when holdin an item, it could also be improved if the masked didn't prioritize collecting items over chasing the player coz they seem to really like their items in this version.

[empty reef]

@spiral rampart the masked are just getting stuck and not moving for me

atleast on modded moons

havent tested on a vanilla moon yet

[restive burrow]

This happened with me on Experimentation

[tranquil canyon]

The masked does have a lil issue is that they get stuck at the terminal, they only start moving when I wack them

But overall the mod is great

[night ruin]

I had to disable the terminal usage, every time a masked was on it you couldn't go near the terminal or they would teleport over to you a good meter or so away and you'd die 🤔

[limpid spear]

@spiral rampart Is the mod on GitHub or anything? Seems like there a lot people want added. Outsourcing some to the community may be the play.

[spiral rampart]

https://github.com/Piggy3590/MaskedAIRevamp
It's a bit outdated, but here

oh wait

its emtpy lmao

[limpid spear]

A bit outdated lol

[meager sigil]

Solo player here, ||do the revamped masks avoid trying to convert you if they aren't at some sort of advantage? I'm hoping to find a mod that makes the masks more interesting in solo||

The main issue with the masks in multiplayer is that they turn normal players. In solo it's just another instakill but has basically nothing special going on.

I like what I heard about ||aggressive masks trying to bash your head in first||

[merry goblet]

Not really an answer to your question but ||the behavior I've noticed most was masked running to the ship with some kind of loot while completely ignoring the player and running to the terminal and getting stuck there after making an order of nothing||

[meager sigil]

Lol

||The aggressive mimic coming over to show me the cool fireaxe it found (it deals 4 damage a hit):||

[clear dagger]

I cant find the mod in the config

how am i able to turn off terminal usage?

[midnight bronze]

yes

[clear dagger]

i think im gonna find you

I think i just might search for you

[midnight bronze]

sh ufdhs WHa

[clear dagger]

im approaching

[brittle tiger]

They still just stand there for me, not doing anything but standing

[half falcon]

type Mask

[cyan osprey]

i think they just stood in front of the terminal for me with that config enabled. now they just stand on the corner of the ship but atleast i can access the lever

[limpid hull]

Does this mod have alot of bugs?

or not>

?

[rotund island]

in my case yes and it tanks fps for my friends with weak pcs

however check it out for yourself and see if its worth

[limpid hull]

alr

[limpid hull]

yeah

[rotund island]

its an amazing idea but just needs more work

[steel marsh]

The masked man took my scrap metal, after killing the masked man, the scrap metal could no longer be collected upon returning to the floor.

[deft glacier]

suggestion:

masked have "conversations" with each other, like emoting and when they see a player they point at them as if to say "THAT GUY"

[deft glacier]

DO NOT FORGET THIS

[night ruin]

I swear having the masked open the cupboard and play stupid looking inside it will 100% fool people

[deft glacier]

EVERY SUGGESTION BY THIS MAN. DO NOT FORGHET

[deft glacier]

all i want out of this mod is them beign able to be switched to the radar normally, AND FOR GOD'S SAKE I WANT THEM TO DROP STUFF LIKE OMG I GET FIRED HALF OF THE TIME CUZ THEY BUG ALL THE SCRAP OUT

also maybe give them an inventory system..? maybe they can like.. stop and sort out their scrap like hoarding bugs do

https://tenor.com/view/lethal-company-enter-sandman-the-masked-lethal-company-the-masked-lethal-company-masks-gif-13175466374478856285

or maybe they ragdoll

[lethal ice]

I just had the masked to get stuck inside terminal for the rest of the game. intentional?

[zinc dagger]

Love this-

Is this going to be a mod that only the host needs to use?

[cyan osprey]

@spiral rampart sorry for the ping. idk if you saw this already #1190848624402386985 message. just making sure

[spiral rampart]

yep I saw it

but Its difficult to do it right away

ill do it later

[cyan osprey]

alright

[deft glacier]

is this supposed to happen? if so, it's a really good imitation of a player's movements

[stone flax]

that's a broken navmesh

[deft glacier]

💀

atually that give me idea

masked kind of hesitate (more than they already do) when seeing a player, walking forward and backward again and looking behind them

as well as them just having more erratic movements so that they look like they're "checking out" a place

[half falcon]

whats causing the broken navmesh?

[stone flax]

i dunno

[half falcon]

also lol the luck on that ladder near the wall

[stone flax]

all enemies shimmy like that when they don't have a navmesh

[deft glacier]

i can scan stuff they're holding

and it gives me a grab option

it doesn't work, but it would be funny af if i could yoink things from them and they would get mad

[half falcon]

then you will start yoinking from others too lol. the moment you can yoink what they are holding. you realise they are mimics

[deft glacier]

masked jump when you see them (decently low chance) to fake you out even more

[stuck sinew]

I've also ran into this issue

Also found it's a lot easier to kill masked enemies with this mod

you go to hit them and they just sort of stand there taking on the beatin

[torpid fjord]

I have an idea for this mod. In the config, there would be where if its only masks that help the players, or masks that sabotage the players. So the masks that help the players will be able to pick up scrap and drop it in the ship. And masks that sabotage the players will take scrap off the ship and kill the players.

[sullen lion]

Hmm, the DramaMask mod should theoretically work with MaskedAIRevamp, right?

Asking 'cause I'm adding it to a modpack

[meager sigil]

I need to find me one of those masks, they seem pretty good from what I understand

[tranquil canyon]

Well I feel like the masked should bring items to the ship to look normal (which it does), but also try to sabotage you (which it does)

Having a masked on the ship is a death sentence

[night ruin]

https://tenor.com/view/jesse-pinkman-shovel-breaking-bad-digging-gif-26516691

My reaction to this information

[half falcon]

i bonk them

they run out of the ship afterwards

doesnt attack me

they will just go inside the dungeon

they would crouch walke away

go down the ladder

and roam somewhere

[night ruin]

Different personalities, some will take huge offense to your existence and chase you relentlessly, others will flee the scene

[half falcon]

havent found the ones that actually attack me yet

even when i throw the shovel in front of them

they mostly summon the dogs cuz they drop the delivery ship

[night ruin]

Ahh I had to disable the terminal usage, once they started using it I couldn't go anywhere near em

Like multiple times it's happened where i'd get about a meter away and they'd fly over to me as if they were right beside me all along

[half falcon]

i normally put the teminal slightly far with the main monitor of the ship

because i have it facing it

so if i back out of the terminal. i can see the door for the ship first

[sullen lion]

The mask from the DramaMask mod? Yeah, it essentially makes masked enemies ignore you, but who knows? Maybe it's not compatible?

[empty reef]

Has this mod fixed the masked like stutter walking yet

[half falcon]

isnt stutter walk vanilla issue?

[urban summit]

thats a vanilla issue

every entity does this

[half falcon]

the only thing i can think of that might fix that is that Pathfinding fix and maybe starlancer AI fix

sometimes still stutter but once they see you. they most likely fix themselves

[cyan osprey]

Is this mod abandoned? 🥲

[spiral rampart]

I don't know where to start lmao

I think lc_office is (probably) being completed to some extent. I think I'll continue to make it again once it's stable(I think I might have to rewrite the code from scratch )

[midnight bronze]

Ik the mirage dev is gonna revamp the ai for mask

[fluid rampart]

He's mostly gonna be doing stuff relating to the voicelines and how the Masked respond to people's voices so the two mods would probably end up being incompatible but at least different enough that they have their own merits

I mean unless some sort of fusion dance occurs...

[spiral rampart]

I will try to make it compatible (if possible)

[empty reef]

anybody when using this mod the masked just run away from you to a location

[cyan osprey]

They said it’s not going to be anytime soon. They’ll focus on voice recognition and machine learning for voice mimicking first which will also take time. And they also said they’ll eventually make AI changes optional if you want to use another AI mod

[midnight bronze]

so what I said was still right

[cyan osprey]

ok

[fluid rampart]

Semantically I'd say it's not really a "revamp" but certainly there will be changes to their AI down the road

[proper granite]

sometimes when entering a custom moon I get a ton of log errors that happen so much per ms it lags me out

is there a way to disable it

[sullen lion]

Feels more like an overhaul is a better way to describe it.

[shell wyvern]

I'm having the same issue, I think it's probably a known issue by now tho

Is there a GitHub repo to report issues? I didn't find any links on the Thunderstore page

[sullen lion]

Yes :) https://github.com/Piggy3590/MaskedAIRevamp

[shell wyvern]

Thank you! 🙏

I think it would probably be a good idea to also link it on the Thunderstore page as the mod URL so that it's easier to find for people to report issues 🙂

[thorny hearth]

my log is being spammed this almost as soon as the masked spawned

[spiral rampart]

I think Ill disable this mod until it gets an update or smth

the masked really dont care about players 90% of the time

[sullen lion]

He's busy I think

But yeah I do understand your standpoint. 🙃

[spiral rampart]

over 70% of the code in this mod is already pretty broken

I should probably do MaskedAIRevampRevamp

[proud ingot]

MaskedAIRevampOverhaulRemake-FinalVersion when?

[spiral rampart]

1000 years later

[fierce mango]

@spiral rampart is this mod compatible with mirage?

[night ruin]

Yeah it is

[fierce mango]

do i have to enable the skinwalker compat?

[night ruin]

Oh that is for walkie talkies, that's not been updated for Mirage

[fierce mango]

Ok

Would be cool to see that added then

[night ruin]

Well if it's any respite for Piggy, Barch who made Mirage plans to make his own AI rework integrated into it in the future, he has plans for machine learning and algorithmic responses and stuff so very exciting, piggy has been tied up with Office these days so I think this would be a good amount of unburdened weight. Once Barch is making the Mirage AI I'd recommend giving him some ideas in his thread

[fierce mango]

Wow that sounds awesome

[drowsy ember]

https://tenor.com/view/why-huh-but-why-gif-13199396

[carmine tapir]

because the office

[drowsy ember]

The office is great.

[carmine tapir]

all praise the office

the lc office

[plush urchin]

Take your time that sounds a little too exhausting just hearing itn couldnt imagine coding it

[robust glen]

The enthusiasm for modding masked enemies be like

[empty island]

They all bugged ?

[robust glen]

Haha no just yet to test plus Mirage.

[plush urchin]

REAL

[vale sand]

Love this idea. Would be great to get config options for each feature since this mod is so early in development.
Since most isn't finished, I'd like to just use the "disable rotating randomly on the radar" feature.

[spiral rampart]

MaskedAIRevamp v0.2.1

ᵐᶦⁿᵒʳ ᶜʰᵃⁿᵍᵉˢ

• Added Experimental Features config. When this config is disabled, Masked's AI will not be modified and will only change the radar animation.
• Fixed some bugs.

ᴵᵗ ᵐᵃʸ ᵗᵃᵏᵉ ᵃ ʷʰᶦˡᵉ ᵗᵒ ᵇᵉ ᵛᶦᵉʷᵉᵈ ᵒⁿ ᵀʰᵘⁿᵈᵉʳˢᵗᵒʳᵉ·

I started working again

[vocal locust]

Ooh nice, this will be useful for my big stream today to only have the radar fix, does that mean it will fix compat with TooMamyEmotes as well?

[cyan osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/yippee-happy-yippee-creature-yippee-meme-yippee-gif-gif-1489386840712152603

is "terminal access" fixed or not yet?

i have it turned off because of softlock

[vocal locust]

Seems like mimics still won't dance from TooManyEmotes with this installed? Even with Experimental unticked odd

[steady star]

@vocal locust How did you order the masked mods around btw? Installed this mod with the experimental config set to false, and suddenly I couldn't land on planets, so I'm thinking it might be a load order issue if you managed to get yours to work

or mayhaps a conflicting config I dunno

[carmine cloud]

You can't change load order. The custom order in r2 doesn't matter.
I'm using only Mirage and MaskedAIRevamp. Landing wasn't an issue. Haven't tested more than that yet.

[steady star]

ah okay, then it might be something with MEOF

[rotund island]

return of the king

[rotund island]

u mean working on this mod again?

or like a job

[plain spade]

Great! Will turning off the experimental features as host sync with everyone? Thank you in advance!

[vale sand]

Much appreciated!

[steady star]

messed around with my configs for a bit and I found that I had vanilla spawns for MEOF disabled which was causing the not being able to land problem

[vocal locust]

Btw TooManyEmotes animations for the Masked enemies started working with the experimental features off, I love that you can't tell mimics apart on the radar now it's so good lol

[midnight bronze]

Does dancing and pointing work too

[pseudo knoll]

Needs that drama mask

[robust glen]

Drama just a new item.. and doesn't really make sense but not a bad mod.

[spiral rampart]

it makes sense

[mild raft]

cool idea, masked showing up as player on the monitor, having them mimic the displayed player name on the terminal when switching it would get really confusing which one is which with the same names

[lyric geyser]

can this use with mirage?

[forest grotto]

mirage dont touch AI

yet

so yes

[lyric geyser]

has bug on grabbing player, if killed it while grabbing, it wont die, and keep grabbing other player, then player who being grabbed will stuck and cannot turn their view

[lyric geyser]

and hud also bug

[spiral rampart]

wth is dat lol

[lyric geyser]

a very tiny dead body logo

current version just have a lot of bug, i have to delete it first until it developed well, sorry

[vocal locust]

Just disable the experimental stuff in the config

Use it for the radar fix

There was a toggle added so you can disable the experimental stuff and have it not touch their ai at all

[deft glacier]

how's development going? (the planned features and such)

maybe take some stuff from here? https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1221614014954606645

you dont have to tho. anyway, got a suggestion maybe make masked spin, but only when in a certian proximity to enemies

[deft glacier]

oh also maybe have the radar movements actually sync with the masked's movements, so when they spin or look to the side on the radar their actual model does it too

[deft glacier]

this mod seems abandoned

[fluid rampart]

The dev is working on LC_Office a lot, so this mod has been on the backburner for a while

[deft glacier]

oh...

🙁

that kinda sux cuz this mod is really cool and has a lot of potential

[spiral rampart]

actually Im not working on any mods very well at the moment, im a bit busy 😅

[fluid rampart]

Ah okay, that's fair enough. Even if you weren't busy, there's never any obligation to work on mods, I just hope you're doing well

[lean onyx]

praying for the day this mod is stable

[deft glacier]

praying for the day when it gets actually updated (the planned features n' such)

also, piggy, if you're reading this, could you make a server side mod that only improves the masked's radar movements? (so i can run it in public servers to bamboozle the common people)

[lean onyx]

does the radar feature not cause issues btw

ive been skeptical to run it

because of all the issues ive seen with the mod from personal testing

i rememeber he added an experimental feature just for the radar

[deft glacier]

it works

[lean onyx]

does it disable all other functions im guessing ?

[deft glacier]

it would be nice to have a toggle option for all the different parts of their ai tho

[lean onyx]

i feel like it could be a standalone mod temporary

[deft glacier]

yea, it reverts them back to default AI and just makes them less conspicous on the radar

it would be cool to have it as a server-side mod to run in public servers, cuz people know how masked move on the radars

[spiral rampart]

I dont think its possible cuz masked's radar moves by animation

[deft glacier]

how so?

like

cuz i know that they don't actually spin around

[spiral rampart]

there is an separate animator on the radar object

[pallid gust]

Does the mod work with V50 version?

[runic haven]

the radar part of it does

[deft glacier]

objects that masked pick up inside are invisible outside and vice-versa

[teal elbow]

that sounds like it could be caused by CullFactory, do you have that installed?

[deft glacier]

yes

[teal elbow]

gotcha, that's tricky but I'll hopefully be able to fix it without too much trouble

[deft glacier]

what

you work on this mod?

[teal elbow]

no, I work on CullFactory

[deft glacier]

oh

[teal elbow]

@deft glacier unfortunately I can't really fix this issue without breaking compat with v50, so I'll have to wait until Piggy can update the code that picks up items so that it works on v50
