[bleak remnant]

how else am i supposed to support my favourite creators

[wooden canopy]

Fair enough...

[still trellis]

Came here looking to see if a mod for swimming existed and somehow this was the closest thing, it's kind of a tragedy nobody has made one

[late roost]

goated with the sauce

[strange beacon]

advanced company had flippers for swimming

but well, we all know what happened to it

[nocturne charm]

I still really think best “solution” to swimming is to instead have certain props and deployable items rise and lower with the water there inside

So it develops like parkour routes

[still trellis]

I'd love for it to just drain stamina and be slow/less effective based on weight, but be effective when you're carrying 0-10 lbs

[clear kettle]

personally i hope swimming/water traversal never gets added and zeekerss just adds fishing to give the handful of water spots/flooded weather a purpose and appeal to interact with.

[still trellis]

That's why I'd rather it be a mod, so it remains completely optional

[strange beacon]

every game needs fishing!

[digital ferry]

i'm surprised there hasn't been a fishing mod for this game yet

[late roost]

Hey! I now have a Ko-Fi account. If you like my work and want to support it (donations are a great motivator) click this link: https://ko-fi.com/its3dmatt
Any donations that mention "PlayZone" or "Bozoros" I will be sharing with @quasi nest

[late roost]

I should really update my portfolio sometime soon

Everything I have in there is from 3 years ago or older

[bleak remnant]

If I mention bozoros and play zone at the same time does paco get all of it

Or what if I specifically say I hate those two, does paco pay you

[late roost]

[nocturne charm]

i hate talking about my work 😭

i have like a full portfolio worth of projects i gotta update my portfolio with that i keep putting off

[bleak remnant]

my portfolio consists of an windmill generator i made in highschool randomly, one day i'll update it

[quasi nest]

https://tenor.com/view/update-is-cancelled-gif-9661562198263154049

(I need to see what broke on v70 💀)

[slender nest]

was wondering, will the new playzone interior have its own ambience like the sounds of pins being knocked down or anything related to the map?

[quasi nest]

In a way

I'm not touching moons' actual ambience, but things like hearing the bowling alley pinsetters slamming down do contribute to ambience a bit

Hearing ball pit sounds from afar too

[late roost]

Spoiler for new LC update:
My reaction to the ||Kiwi||

[strange beacon]

i love this thing

its so goofy

[late roost]

i welcome it with open arms

perhaps too open, my arms are now bleeding

also I was never a fox hater

[strange beacon]

||its babies are fucking irritating when you bring them back though, im happy they shut up once in orbit, but like, jesus||

[quasi nest]

Everything is suspiciously working

Thonk

[strange beacon]

v70 only really majorly effects large bug fix projects like butteryfixes

its possible a major content mod breaks but idk

[quasi nest]

I have a few scripts inheriting game stuff though

But yeah I'm not directly patching anything so it does just seem to be alright

[strange beacon]

@quasi nest turns out ESR/ESK is broken in v70

so, that would be a problem for bozoros

[quasi nest]

Yeah

It can be turned off

It's a soft dependency

[night quest]

AiFix is also broken rn

Needs a recomp

[quasi nest]

(Also figured out why Candy Cane wasn't getting replaced, but I might try implementing the skins myself, at least for now )

Actually I might try recompiling Registry, I'm guessing that's probably all it needs

And new enemy, but it should still work without it

[strange beacon]

xu wanted to, but shes been holding off due to antlers not responding about if its ok to bounce off what they made

at least afaik antlers never did

[quasi nest]

https://github.com/Yinigma/EnemySkinRegistry/blob/main/LICENSE

I think EnemySkinKit's unlicensed though

[strange beacon]

@bleak remnant am i being stupid???

[night quest]

TestAccount was the one that wanted to

I don't recall Xu wanting to

[strange beacon]

i thought she said something about that

maybe im being EXTRA stupid

[night quest]

But if pacoito wants to do it he can

[quasi nest]

It's understandable though, even if it's permissively licensed it's not ideal to just yoink and reupload a fixed version

Even with proper credits and all

[night quest]

Means I can keep my beloved Bito

[quasi nest]

Now a fork, on the other hand...

[night quest]

EnemySkinKit might work when Registry is updated tbh

It relies on Registry

so it would be a matter of testing

If not it just means mods using it would need to migrate over

[quasi nest]

I guess I can try it now, waiting for Bozo/PlayZone project to patch so I'm in the snail 🐌 waiting room

[night quest]

If you get it working and can upload an updated version that'd be poggers

[strange beacon]

i would love skins for the new creature

[quasi nest]

I might wanna actually change a couple things (e.g. add Kiwi) before uploading

Ye

[strange beacon]

they would go so hard

[night quest]

Unfortunately SkinKit would also need an update so any Kiwi skins will have to use Registry

But that's likely not a deal breaker

SkinKit isn't licensed so it can't be maintained

[quasi nest]

Yeahh

[late roost]

Bozoros will be getting a small update for v70 and will include some small surprises

[night quest]

SkinKit will probably just slowly fade out and become deprecated since future enemies will only be able to be given support through SkinRegistry

[strange beacon]

indoor ||sapsucker|| now coming to bozoros 🔥

[quasi nest]

[quasi nest]

Actually I forgot it uses ThunderKit, hmm

I'll restructure into a regular project most likely

[night quest]

Good luck lol

[bleak remnant]

I am the one who said I'd maintain the mods considering I know how to use them yes

I still need to reach out for permission though

I'll probably do that now

[night quest]

EnemySkinRegistry is MIT so that could be updated, that also alone threw the errors too

[quasi nest]

(I just ported the project off of ThunderKit, haven't actually done anything lol)

[bleak remnant]

Lol

I was just gonna clone the github reoo and get to work

Repo*

If you wanna do the work for updating it though go for it

It's only a new enemy you'd need to setup the SO for and all it's events

[quasi nest]

It's probably easier to actually just continue using ThunderKit 💀

I was just doing this while my project was patching

So I couldn't do Unity stuff

[bleak remnant]

I've never used thunderkit, what is it?

[quasi nest]

Uhh it's some editor scripting thing

I've only used it when I had the Bozo skins in EnemySkinKit, but for whatever reason it's not compatible with Unity Project Patcher projects though so I had to open a different project when changing skin stuff

Switched to Registry since I needed something EnemySkinKit was lacking

[bleak remnant]

You're gonna make me dread updating ESK or ESR if I have to write the code somewhere very specific and build it in a very specific way

Though there's a couple things I've been wanting to change in those two mods for a big

Bit

Some stuff uses .material when it needs to use .sharedMaterial

Some null checking isn't always done

[quasi nest]

Yeahhh also not too big a fan of all the enemy patches, though I can see a couple of them being needed (like Butler stuff)

Not sure if any skin actually uses it for the other enemies

[bleak remnant]

The process could also be a lot more generic

[quasi nest]

Also that

Lotta hard coded stuff

[night quest]

Updating for the new enemy and fixing the soft masking errors

idk what causes that

[quasi nest]

It is me, I personally do it

Every SoftMask error is hand written and printed out to console by me

[bleak remnant]

I knew it

[late roost]

PlayZone 1.0.0 Released!

A custom interior for Company employees to bring their families to. Created by LethalMatt and pacoito.

PlayZone is an expansive indoor amusement center featuring activities like playgrounds, cosmic bowling, laser tag, a trampoline park, and more!

All models and textures were created from scratch, with a few exceptions. See more of my work on my ArtStation. If you would like to support my work or want to encourage future projects, you can donate to my Ko-Fi account. Any gratuity is very highly appreciated!

Details

PlayZone was a childcare service created by The Company for employees to take their families to in times of leisure, or to drop off their children during their shift. However, PlayZone's last day of operation was in October 18th, 2004. Maybe you can piece together what happened on its last day...

FEATURES:

• 6 main 'zones' to search and play around in.
• 4 story log terminal entries to find.
• 14 themed scrap items to collect.
• Various custom hazards and player obstacles.
• Functional trampolines, slides, and ball pits.
• Loads of other custom scripted stuff!

LethalMatt Moons & Interiors - Outpost 31, Bozoros, Circus, PlayZone

[quasi nest]

Bozoros v2.5.0 uploaded!

• Migrated (almost) all scripted stuff to my own library, itolib!
  • A lot of scripts have received some tweaking and/or refactoring in the back end, but it should all be functionally the same.
• Recompiled and rebuilt project for v70.
  • NOTE: Contour map for Bozoros has not yet been made, but is planned.
• A bouncy castle has magically appeared out of nowhere...
• Small bug fixes/adjustments:
  • Fixed BananaMultiplierInside setting not actually applying when any interior that wasn't CircusFacility generated in Bozoros.
  • Fixed Santa Butlers neither wielding nor dropping their signature Candy cane weapon,
  • Lowered a bunch of lights' fade distances, which were previously set to the default value of 10000.
  • Tweaked NavMesh stuff around the Ferris wheel.
• Changes to spawn weights:
  • Added v70's new creature to the daytime enemy spawning pool.
  • Toned down Turret spawn curve a bit.

[late roost]

I wanna thank Zeekers for updating Lethal Company the same day we originally were about to release PlayZone

At least it ripped off the bandaid of updating to v70

[bleak remnant]

nice job guys

[strange beacon]

https://tenor.com/view/epic-win-ice-age-ice-age-memes-ice-age-baby-gif-4364099891598939388

[late rivet]

YOOOOOOO INCREDIBLE!!!!!!! SO STOKED TO TRY THIS OUT

also.. GARRY THERE I AM!!!

[late roost]

My studio's game also released today so kinda big day today for releases

My brain is over stimulated from the excitement

Time to play some PlayZone with the boys

[quasi nest]

Do let me know if there's any issues found, there's a bunch of things going on

[late roost]

@quasi nest wheres the itolib thread homeslice

[quasi nest]

I forgor

o

https://tenor.com/view/1984-gif-19260546

[late roost]

oh you need the modder role

[tranquil parcel]

mmmmm yummers

now what's a good moon to put playzone on?

[night quest]

He has the modder role

[bleak remnant]

he needs resources role

i can make the thread if you want

lol

[quasi nest]

Ah

[bleak remnant]

im assuming in #1175883003474485369 right?

[quasi nest]

Yee

Lemme send stuff

[bleak remnant]

bet

ig we both releasing libs lol

mine is more so for registering though

[bleak remnant]

get me out of there

[tranquil parcel]

Nice list, I'll keep it in mind

[quasi nest]

Oh there's default weights for at least three moons

[bleak remnant]

you forgot peter

[night quest]

Filitrios 100%, maybe also Etern tbh

[bleak remnant]

also what moon is The playplace

[quasi nest]

It's set at 252 💀

[bleak remnant]

dam

thats quite high lmao

[quasi nest]

Sounds like a funny one to have in there

[buoyant sandal]

fits

[bleak remnant]

sorry paco i just realised they actually took away my resources role 💀

i know i had it because i have one or two threads made in there for tools

but ig no more

[quasi nest]

Ah

[bleak remnant]

just ask robyn for it in #dev-general

[quasi nest]

I mean I can make one in here like JLL's thread actually

[bleak remnant]

also no one looks in #1175883003474485369 anyway

[quasi nest]

Yeah lol 💀

[bleak remnant]

just put it in #dev-general

not general

#1169056298856362105

yea

[strange beacon]

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/TheGoose444/The_Playplace/ this one

[quasi nest]

An unexpectedly good one for PlayZone is https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/DemonMae/The_Iris_moon

Don't ask why

[keen jolt]

ooo

Looking forward to taking a look at the interior later

[nocturne charm]

Congrats guys

Plug in zeekers cord show and tell or ill do it for you 😛

reddit too

[late roost]

I'll get right on that

I'm not sure mods are allowed as posts on the main subreddit

[nocturne charm]

its fine

i showcased stargazer ages back

[late roost]

It's live on Gale now, should now be on r2

Along with itolib

[visual obsidian]

PEAK PEAK PEAK PEAK PEAK

[nocturne charm]

Yeah im pretty sure this is my favourite mod

[late roost]

https://tenor.com/view/keyaan-john-wick-keanu-reeves-gif-2384046765437701795

itolib is goated and I can't wait to see what people do with it

[arctic venture]

saw some posts about this in zeekcord

this is extremely cool

very aesthetic

[nocturne charm]

screenshots do not convey how amazing this is ingame

I never imagined we'd get custom content to this level

You should repost on reddit w/ screenshots instead

and link in comment

people like photos and you have good ones

[late roost]

We have more planned for updates 🙂

We had to move some things we want for post release so we can get it out earlier

[strange beacon]

im currently doing an investigation of the loot circle placements and more technical stuff like that

i just now tried it and we only found a single piece of scrap by 4 PM in game

in fairness that might be the titan effect (we were on titan) but i feel like there might be some issues with the placements

not sure, ill check stuff rn

[late roost]

That's concerning 😟
I wonder if its the same bug I saw in Wesley's art museum interior

All the loot spawned on a single node there

[quasi nest]

Thonk

[strange beacon]

w h a t

wtf are these numbers 😭

[quasi nest]

Whar

[strange beacon]

this is x2 as big as mineshaft

[quasi nest]

Oh

Yee

Tiles are relatively small

At least the maze ones

[strange beacon]

is one tile one small rectangle?

[late roost]

Yeah they quite literally are as modular as you can get

[quasi nest]

Single tube section as well

[quasi nest]

But yeah loot's still a bit rough, might be worth playing with the +6 bonus Mineshaft scrap using ScienceBird Tweaks

[wooden canopy]

We were on Titan and found almost nothing

orangesquint

[quasi nest]

There's a few spots that steal loot from other places

[wooden canopy]

The interior is peak though, the stats of it are just not

Good job

[strange beacon]

a couple things
that tweak doesnt apply the same bonus scrap as mineshaft, it lets you apply your own choice of a number to an interior

and im gonna check the size on EXP for a rough reference

[quasi nest]

(e.g. if a Bowling ball were to spawn, it gets teleported to a shelf at the bowling alley)

Might mess with loot distributions a bit too much

I could lower the number of those 'guaranteed' spots

[strange beacon]

forgets to apply spawn weight
forgets to make scrap count 99
forgets to install imperium

please kill me

[quasi nest]

[strange beacon]

this is x1 interior with 99 loot pieces

with room disabled

[quasi nest]

Oh this is supposed to spawn inside, pretend it's inside (can't grab it )

I might have increased the loot area of that too much

[strange beacon]

i think the only place that needs more loot circles is this area

[quasi nest]

Yeah there probably could be a couple spawn nodes in there

[quasi nest]

There's freebie shoes behind the counter at the main entrance though (if they happen to spawn) 👀

[strange beacon]

does the pizza room always spawn far away

[bleak remnant]

you saying purple cant afford shoes or smthn? smh

[quasi nest]

Yee, PartyZone and TykeZone are at opposite ends of the dungeon

(Generation starts and ends with one or the other)

[strange beacon]

can you not make the large rooms randomized?

this is one of the landmines of all time btw

[quasi nest]

!

I've only seen one floating turret, and it wasn't even me that saw it

I have no idea how since NavMesh in those places is pristine 💀

[strange beacon]

is this also not intended?

[quasi nest]

Oh

Yeah that's where the turret was seen

Uhh

I have never seen it happen personally 💀

[bleak remnant]

dont jump

[quasi nest]

Again, NavMesh should be fine there so I don't know why those hazards have chosen to defy gravity

[quasi nest]

Also they're set to show up at around similar places throughout the dungeon, but whichever one gets picked is randomized

I guess I should test with 500 turrets or something

https://tenor.com/view/500-ciggarettes-gif-11805300176740010737

[strange beacon]

team green apparatus doesnt cause a radiation warning it seems

or do both need to be pulled

[quasi nest]

Intended

[strange beacon]

i see

also

none of the custom playzone scrap is spawning

besides the apparatuses

[quasi nest]

Oh hmm

[strange beacon]

i was confused when you said theres shoes at main

and i just found nothing

then i checked the imperium scrap list lol

[quasi nest]

Actually wait you play with CentralConfig, right?

I'm not actually sure if it overrides the spawns I set when initially landing but it might

[strange beacon]

let me check

[quasi nest]

There's a config setting to toggle the stuff I'm doing, since you can add it through CentralConfig to the interior specifically iirc

[bleak remnant]

you're not adding the scrap via LLL?

[quasi nest]

I am

[strange beacon]

i have no plans to add this to arduous, i just do a general check on modded stuff im interested in

[bleak remnant]

huh, i guess CC just weird then

[strange beacon]

i noticed a lot of people dont notice things that are very easy to notice, and they end up just unreported

[quasi nest]

Yeah I added that config setting specifically since I wasn't sure how it would play with it, but I also forgor to actually test with it

[strange beacon]

god i hate the "enable content configuration" setting sometimes

its my fault for forgetting its there but H

[quasi nest]

(Also I'm just making DungeonMatchingProperties for LLL items actually apply https://github.com/pacoito123/LC_itolib/blob/main/itolib/Behaviours/Props/ScrapInjector.cs )

[strange beacon]

yeah nope they just arent spawning

[quasi nest]

Huh

[quasi nest]

I did just see a Bowling ball placed on a shelf, not sure what's going on

Thonk

[bleak remnant]

oh yeah none of that stuff applies in actual LLL lol, i noticed it a while ago and it was kinda funny

Weather weights also dont apply since they dont refresh past first day

[strange beacon]

oh boy i love random mod incompatibilites

hold on let me generate a log with all log messages

[quasi nest]

Ye

[quasi nest]

There's a bunch of other errors in the log (but no actual PlayZone generation), if you share a profile code I can take a look though

[strange beacon]

H i keep uninstalling it

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cat-falling-down-stairs-gif-5462499368330342031

01973990-664e-0106-8428-c160bc1d60d7

[keen jolt]

Least from the quick brief runs on March (bumped up to 30-40 items) I'm also noticing a pretty big lack in loot too. Only time I got a bunch of loot was when I got the pizza room, got lucky with a fire exit being there 🤔

I found a shoe at main on most of my runs

[quasi nest]

Ohh wait right, I forgor Arduous Experimentation does this

The custom scraps are added to the moon's actual spawn pool, they spawn naturally and are not spawned in addition to the moon's scrap spawns

[strange beacon]

???? but i made it have 99 items

i just reverted the debug

[quasi nest]

Yeah I was just wondering why only Gold bar + Apparatuses spawned in that picture lol

[strange beacon]

youre telling me during that debug, not one of the playzones scrap spawned

[quasi nest]

Ah yeah that's where I'm not sure if something overwrote the values

I'll do some more testing

[late roost]

Whats happening? Mod incompatible?

[quasi nest]

Yeah just custom stuff not being added to the loot pool in that specific pack

[late roost]

Roblox oof

[quasi nest]

CentralConfig if I had to guess

However it can add items to a specific dungeon by itself though

[strange beacon]

i will say

when i disabled centralconfig, i didnt make exp spawn 99 items again

so, maybe i just trolled myself

[quasi nest]

Perhap

[strange beacon]

and it would also make more sense if the loot isnt just spawned when the interior is loaded

[quasi nest]

Their weights aren't that high so as to not take over any given moon's loot pool (like for Wesley stuff)

[late roost]

Dude I need a weekend like holy jesus the last few days have been nuts

[strange beacon]

i really like playzone overall

[quasi nest]

Yeah that's why the scrap injection thingy can be turned off, if you wanna add any of the items to specific moons

[strange beacon]

very few issues, designed to fit in to vanilla, few immersion breaking possibilities

i like it

[late roost]

Thank u, my game on steam has gotten negative reviews overall and I'm crushed man

The highs and lows of releasing stuff all in one day

[night quest]

What even is your game?

[strange beacon]

whats the game?

[quasi nest]

Oh I saw actually, it was mostly technical issues though, right?

Or like some performance stuff

[late roost]

Rise of Industry 2

Yeah most were technical issues day 1 bugs and what not

[strange beacon]

tycoons arent really my thing, sorry

[night quest]

When are we getting Pacoito: The Game?

[strange beacon]

but if you were able to get a fanbase to warrant a sequel, that is something to be happy about

[late roost]

nw totally different than anything I've been making here haha

[strange beacon]

greed: the game

[night quest]

I never even knew you made games until you mentioned you released one today

[late roost]

We were brought on to make the sequel another studio made the first game

[strange beacon]

interesting

[late roost]

Yeah I'm a 3d artist at an indie studio

[night quest]

Noice

[late roost]

Lethal has been my outlet for personal work

[quasi nest]

It does not appear to be CentralConfig

Thonk

Maybe one of the errors when landing is causing my thing to not run for some reason

[bright lark]

if it helps I do see the custom scrap. so it is working for some people

[quasi nest]

Yeah it's something in that profile sent earlier

Trying to find what's causing it

[strange beacon]

it is just my mod pack

[bright lark]

ohhh I see

[strange beacon]

while its technically not a mass issue

[quasi nest]

Thy Hardships be Arduous

[strange beacon]

random mod incompatibilities are still issues

[strange beacon]

https://tenor.com/view/crab-boil-crab-boil-gif-26120502

[keen osprey]

Can't wait to drown in ballpits, 4 times in a row

[bright lark]

unbelievably peam interior btw I can't wait to show my friends

[quasi nest]

It ain't balls you should be watching out for

Unless fired at you

[late roost]

Ball pits are a red herring

I poke some fun at Wesley here (with love)

[quasi nest]

Hmm

[quasi nest]

I removed ScienceBird Tweaks (throwing Zap Gun errors) but also Code Rebirth (throwing Spike Trap errors) and the custom scrap shows up

Not sure which be causin this

[late roost]

Code rebirth adds the forklift right

[quasi nest]

Ye

[keen jolt]

I believe so yeah

[late roost]

Probably related then, it moves the custom hazards

[strange beacon]

i have jimothy disabled

hes completely uncached

[quasi nest]

It's something it's trying to look for in the Pinsetters if I had to guess

Thy pins be set

[late roost]

Pinsetters are reskinned spike traps

[strange beacon]

jimothy cant move spike traps

[quasi nest]

Yeah but not matching structure 100%, I gotta see what Code Rebirth is looking for lol

[strange beacon]

its probably coderebirth, the zap gun stuff is related to the option in sciencebird tweaks to use it on hazards to temporarily disable them

i highly doubt that would cause custom scrap to just not load

[quasi nest]

It's actually ScienceBird Tweaks, huh

[strange beacon]

LOL???

[quasi nest]

Code Rebirth errors seem benign (for now at least)

[quasi nest]

I shall investigate

[night quest]

You better have it fixed before Friday

I wanna check out PlayZone

[quasi nest]

Oh it's just because I have it named 'PinsetterAnimContainer' instead of just 'AnimContainer' (like regular spike traps)

The reason I have it like that is the following:

-# There is no reason

[strange beacon]

ok and why is this making the scrap not spawn

[quasi nest]

Domino effect

[late roost]

Good excuse to update the mod to [v71] lmao

[quasi nest]

@lilac raptor https://github.com/Science-Bird/ScienceBirdTweaks/blob/main/ZapGun/SpikesZapper.cs#L30 You probably should have a null check here anyway to turn off in case any dummy changes up the structure of spike traps

[night quest]

Because Pacoito is a naughty boy

[quasi nest]

I don't know who would ever do that, however

[quasi nest]

look inside

???

[night quest]

You did goofy change

[late roost]

Uploading an hour before the game updated again was just the universe lining up a gutter ball in action

[night quest]

broke scrap generation

[quasi nest]

Can't wait for v72 after v71 build

[night quest]

v76 coming when?

[strange beacon]

honestly i wouldnt be surprised

[night quest]

[quasi nest]

https://tenor.com/view/emoji-emoji-disintegrating-emoji-disappearing-meme-21st-century-gif-24891417

[strange beacon]

zeekerss still hasnt fixed clocks and candy being unable to spawn

[quasi nest]

Oh what lmao

[strange beacon]

that alone would genuinely warrant an update

yeah so

[nocturne charm]

fixed in v72

[strange beacon]

oh

wait

no you got me fuck you

[nocturne charm]

not a joke

its not out

[strange beacon]

oh

[quasi nest]

💀 Fair enough then

[late roost]

Was about to joke Zeek took them out for lore reasons

[quasi nest]

This shall come to pass

[late roost]

The prophecy is true

[quasi nest]

or

[night quest]

The icon for PlayZone lowkey bothers me

[quasi nest]

I update pre-emptively

[night quest]

My OCD doesn't know where to put it

[quasi nest]

I have OCD; it is fine right there

[strange beacon]

anyways the reason they cant spawn rn without butteryfixes is cause zeekerss gave them a test thing to spawn in specific loot circle types, similar to tabletop items, likely to test items spawning in the new drawers/cupboards in the manor

[quasi nest]

I focus not on icons, but on the fact that interiors are what's grouped, and that criteria is met

[strange beacon]

and he forgot to remove it, so they just couldnt spawn anywhere

[strange beacon]

i personally organize specific mod types by date added to the pack

[night quest]

I sort them by mod type usually

lol

[quasi nest]

I do alphabetical by arbitrary category

[strange beacon]

some exceptions are the moons, theyre organized by their tier

[night quest]

Allow me to trigger you

[night quest]

And yeah I pulled the full Dull pack, I wanna see the new Mansion more

[wooden canopy]

I sort them by what part of the gameplay loop they're in, and the order they're loaded

[night quest]

I wasn't even aware it had issues

[wooden canopy]

E.g. Moons > Interiors > Hazards > Scrap > Entities

[late roost]

I sort by latest added to the pack at top 💀

[quasi nest]

Oh yeah that's similar to the arbirtrary categories I have set

[wooden canopy]

It makes searching for specific parts of the modpack easier

[quasi nest]

Accurate to gameplay

[nocturne charm]

just like magic 😄

[bleak remnant]

What did you do

[quasi nest]

This

[bleak remnant]

You are terrible

[quasi nest]

Or actually I think for CodeRebirth's fix I just had to add an empty object named 'MovingBar' under SpikeRoof

[quasi nest]

[bleak remnant]

Smthn like that

[quasi nest]

It just gets set to the MapHazards layer

[bleak remnant]

Zeekerss messes up spike trap colliders

Yes

For jimothy and seamine gal scan to work I had to

[quasi nest]

Ye it's just there's no moving bar for the bowling alley pins

Could add a null check to that specific thing, but not sure if anyone else would encounter such an issue

[bleak remnant]

Just add an empty for now scarab, I might add a null check for it later

Can't update cr rn anyway

[quasi nest]

Yeah I'm finishing update, I did just double check the elevator hazard despawning thing worked

[bleak remnant]

[quasi nest]

(It did not, but now it do )

[bleak remnant]

That's my bad, I'll give jimothy a mask in not being able to drop his hazard on stuff on elevator layer navmesh lol

[quasi nest]

OH wait is that what happened lmao

That makes more sense

I tested spawning 500 bear traps and none were even close to elevator

[bleak remnant]

Jimothy just samples navmesh near ai points to put em in, if it's routable

It checks like up to 500~ different points

[quasi nest]

Oh he could also be attempting to route towards main to exit through it

I have an interesting solution for enemies that may want to exit through main

[bleak remnant]

You should wait for zaggy's pathfindinglib api

[quasi nest]

Yeah but cheese 🧀

[bleak remnant]

It's like 99% done but he got busy with job hunting 😔

But enemies can just use elevators and fire exits and main entrances easily

[nocturne charm]

real

[bleak remnant]

Yea

[wooden canopy]

J*b..

No need for the j slur

[nocturne charm]

i spent two years on that grind and got nowhere 😭

[bleak remnant]

There's like one issue that crashes me once every 20~ sessions which is left but probably needs a bit of a rough patch 🥲

[bleak remnant]

What's the cheese do

[quasi nest]

OffMeshLinks that I turn off as soon as enemy approaches 💀

One to request/open elevator door, the other to actually enter and go up

They have no way down at the moment

[bleak remnant]

Oh lol

Smh

[quasi nest]

If there's a player sitting on the top floor while there's an active Jester, the Jester will get his ass into the elevator and get them

I'm definitely switching to PathfindingLib, this is extreme jank

[bleak remnant]

@candid edge the call of the elevator api compels you... to take ur time

[split prism]

Hey @late roost any chance u can add a chill arcade kinda zone to the company buildimg usimg stuff from play zone? Also make it not in the same location as the casino mod plz. I

[quasi nest]

Oh wait for the company building

Thonk

Could be neat perhap

[wooden canopy]

Landing just to see Jeb absolutely ROCKING an arcade machine..

They would be good at video games methinks

Especially after consuming the minds of millions

EnotFreaky

[split prism]

Yeah, somewhere that u have time to play minigames in between

Imagine having gambling, and minigames too

[keen jolt]

Play with Jeb on the arcade machines,
you lose it flexes a tentacle at you
you win it gets angry and tries to eat you

[quasi nest]

PlayZone v1.0.1 uploaded!

• Renamed some parts of the CosmicZone Pinsetters to match the expected vanilla structure a bit more.
  • Should stop some errors with ScienceBird Tweaks and CodeRebirth.
• Tweaked loot spawns a bit.

[wooden canopy]

I'm playing my zone rn

[candid edge]

weeell I might as well look at it now

[bleak remnant]

the sneaky ping worked

[quick quail]

Kinda wish the reskinned plastic ball turrets were non-lethal or just less so than normal turrets are. Not sure if that's possible to do tho since it's just a reskin

[late roost]

I might be psycho but I think performance got better after v70?

[tranquil parcel]

I really like that the ball launchers use the sound of zurg's weapon in toy story 2

[late roost]

i could literally think of no other sound

anything else felt off lol

i tried to foley a few things best I could like the whack a noodles or the elevator

[burnt cedar]

YAY!!

[slender nest]

thank you guys for your hard work 😭 incredible fun!!!

[visual obsidian]

LethalMatt

and Pacoito

you guys are fucking amazing

genuinely amazing and I could not stress that enough bro

Im about to do the playzone

I am excited to see it

BROOOOOOOOOOOOOO

THIS LOOKS SO FIRE

[burnt cedar]

"prepare to be amazed"

accurate motto

[late roost]

this is really stupid but i put that because I was thinking of the guy from meet the robinsons

[burnt cedar]

valid

meet the lethalsons

[late roost]

which is like the most out of pocket thought i had

[burnt cedar]

so, how do the zones work?

i know they are probably archetypes but

do all of them always appear, or is it like 1 or 2 randomly

[late roost]

Each zone is guaranteed to spawn, but never more than one each

[exotic pecan]

Awesome interior, nice job guys. The only issue I've seen so far is scrap spawning in unreachable places: under floor (team blaster), behind a wall (bowling ball), or inside some object like this on the screen (had a mask inside)

[quasi nest]

Hmm, I've only seen it happen one time with the LaserZone pillars, but I'll double check scrap nodes are placed correctly

[visual obsidian]

I still cannot believe how so fucking well made this interior is

Like Dawg its beautifulllllllllllllll

[burnt cedar]

the fruits of labor

cant wait to try this friday

[scarlet basin]

@burnt cedar Was just shown this interior! So far from testing it looks SICK! This may be one of my new favorites 😄

[burnt cedar]

nice!

i cant wait to try it im so excited

the effort is insane

possibly one of if not the most high effort interior out there

[quasi nest]

[burnt cedar]

soon you will have so much it will be like a minecraft grass texture

[nocturne charm]

right

like the photos do not do it justice

and the photos are great

[late roost]

@nocturne charm have you pulled both apparatuses?

[nocturne charm]

I haven't had a chance to proper play yet!

Been in the depths of end of semester assignments

[late roost]

ahhh

[nocturne charm]

ive been showing it off to all my other post-game grad friends tho 😄

[late roost]

get plenty of sleep when you can! i did way too many of my finals super tired all the time

[nocturne charm]

for the last like 3 months i just haven't slept on sundays

its been rough lol

almost there tho

[late roost]

i always had classes that were either at night or first thing in the morning I hardly ever got sleep, I started to depend on stuff to knock me out which sucked

[visual obsidian]

Hey but like

seeing it in game is so surreal

Either way LethalMatt you did a phenomenal job

[nocturne charm]

yeah im 2 hours away from the city and my class is at 8:30 so on the days i go in i gotta wake up at like 4:30am

[late roost]

paco too, it wouldn't be half of what it is without paco putting in the work to add the features i wanted

[nocturne charm]

ill stop gassing this up at some point and not that other mods didn't do it but this project and wesley's big release are the two projects that really make me feel like the time put into LLL was worth it

so crazy seeing this stuff ingame

[strange beacon]

dont make it out like everything has to be grandious or cinematic, LLL has birthed a ton of amazing content all around, for everyones tastes and preferences of what they want to see in lethal company

[late roost]

LLL is too fucking good

[nocturne charm]

LLL gotta be better 😄

i think i gotta give it some more love before lethal 1.0

[late roost]

I think more features that let people implement custom things could be goated, like ship furniture for instance

(We have some planned for PlayZone)

[keen jolt]

Skee-Ball on the ship

[nocturne charm]

yeah, that stuff purely didn't happen cuz of burnout/time. def. should be in

I did really want a good solution to creating tiles to inject into other interiors too

[keen jolt]

Or a funny arcade cabinet

[late roost]

Arcade is on the list of future zones to add, just putting it off because I'd have to do a bunch of custom arcade cabinets which is very involved when it comes to graphic design for the textures

[keen jolt]

Fair

[nocturne charm]

Go overscope

Figure out how to rub pico-8 games in unity

And then add actual games

[late roost]

I already did 💀
There were only like 4 tiles planned for release but I kept adding more ideas to my ref board

There's a teaser for the next one in the elevator which will be my priority

[keen jolt]

Oh so that's what that was lols

[late roost]

The elevator entrance was inspired by this kids club daycare type thing I remember going to when I was a kid and we were on vacation in Las Vegas

[nocturne charm]

gorgeous

[late roost]

I NEVER forgot this place it was so cool. There was a walk-up restaurant inside that you can just order stuff because it was already included

There was a giant playground with pneumatic tubes that shot ball pit balls

There was a lot of video games, arts and crafts, a freaking music zone with electronic instruments

I, a full grown adult man, miss this place it was so fun

[exotic pecan]

Nostalgia hits hard sometimes

[quasi nest]

I do reset the player's gravity when coming into contact with the trampolines, or at least I thought 💀 💀

[late roost]

It is SUCH a troll lmaooo

[quasi nest]

The whack-a-noodle drop sound 💀

[keen osprey]

Storehouse-ahh walls LMAOOO

[keen osprey]

||Toy store's|| ballpit-ahh death

[bleak remnant]

I might give it a try soon ish
Every now and again I feel like I've just become a lot better at understanding the code and how I should be doing something, so making stuff like ExtendedHazards or ExtendedShipObjects(whatever the name may be) wouldn't be too bad

Considering I rewrote lethallib's code of enemies items and map objects because the code was unreadable I feel like I can do smthn in LLL that'd work pretty well

Though the only problem is I'd probably get a bit lost in finding where you read bundles but I'm sure I'll figure it out

[keen osprey]

I'm proud of you xu

[bleak remnant]

Kiszony I'm not proud.of you, go kill mu more

[burnt cedar]

what the hell this has custom weights for my moons lol?

im suprised

they are all pretty accurate except maybe thallasic would be higher since its a more modern facility but they all work 👍

i really need to improve my old moons

but im focusing on interior revamps rn

ty for the weights tho :P

[quasi nest]

There are at least three moons in the default weights list

Minimum three

Probably more than that

[burnt cedar]

ah yeah slightly more

[keen osprey]

yes ma'am 🫡

-# (that hurts)

[quasi nest]

Bounty accepted

[burnt cedar]

for some reason, LLL isnt properly taking my custom weights

its 100% a LLL issue

it happened with my interior too

[nocturne charm]

nah

works 4 me

[quasi nest]

I usually forget to toggle Enable Content Configuration

[burnt cedar]

i had custom content configuration yesterday for LLL and it didnt work, but ill recheck

hmm

might have been cus i was on a test build

[quasi nest]

You gotta toggle it for specific moons/interiors, not the whole of LLL

[burnt cedar]

yeah i know

[nocturne charm]

that bool means “im not responsible for what the text file does to your game”

[burnt cedar]

i checked, it somehow turned itself off for vehicle hangar

[quasi nest]

Oh just double checkin

[burnt cedar]

anyways, does playzone need to be locked to a multiplier of 1?

im worried it would make large moons too easy

it was automatically on in my config

[quasi nest]

All of them are on 1 by default iirc, pretty sure it's a multiplier applied on top of specific moon dungeon sizes

[burnt cedar]

oh, hmm

i thought it was the max limit of the moon size modifier?

vehicle hangars is not on by default

hmm..

ill keep it off and see what happens

did you guys make this asset yourself?

if its public tho where did you get it, i might wanna use it

if its not I wont use it

damn im guessing they are all custom

this is alot of neat assets

love the vending machnines they are so cool

also 👁️

how the hell are you supposed to cross those swing pits tho

is there an interact trigger???

[quasi nest]

Hold space

Bozo balloon controls

[burnt cedar]

oh

yeah maybe u wanna add something to convey that

like a sign on the wall

[quasi nest]

There is in fact that

[burnt cedar]

i assumed they were auto like the slides

[burnt cedar]

oh

welp maybe i missed it

[quasi nest]

Playground rules at the bottom lol

It do be easy to miss though

[burnt cedar]

oh yeah maybe put one next to the tile and its just that

just the bottom rules

or on the wall next to the swing

[quasi nest]

Yeah something on the walls could work

There ain't much space though for like a sign on the ground

[burnt cedar]

thats true

id just do it on the walls

[quasi nest]

@late roost Also I just realized, gotta add the new creature to the Jungle Jake's logo

Prime candidate to be in there

🐦

[burnt cedar]

wait so the map is like, mainly the playplace but the different zone are put in there as singular rooms?

am i getting that right?

[quasi nest]

Yeah basically

[burnt cedar]

ahh i thought it would be like unique sectors with archetypes but thats cool

my only worry is that due to the open atmosphere some planets will look buggy down there

on adamance i saw weird white streaks in the distance

but overall its fine

[quasi nest]

Oh weird

[burnt cedar]

the only way to fix that would be to add a black plane above and below each tile

and in the distance

which isnt manageable

[quasi nest]

There is that actually

[burnt cedar]

hmm

[quasi nest]

Or uh

[burnt cedar]

makes it even more odd then

[quasi nest]

Comically large plane at main entrance

[burnt cedar]

hmm makes sense

[quasi nest]

There's only one moon I turn the ceiling plane off for, and it's https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/DemonMae/The_Iris_moon

It's pretty

[burnt cedar]

woah

so, does it show the bottom of the skybox down there?

[quasi nest]

It's just an effect from that moon that surrounds the dungeon

I'm not sure if you're actually able to see it normally on other interiors lol

[burnt cedar]

ah. hmm

but anyways

this is one of my favorite interiors now

if only I wasnt so stupid as to constantly fall in those pits with the cubes

i missed them like 3 times and died

[quasi nest]

Trampolines are a bit wacky to get used to

JumpZone has a warning on the walls that says "Don't run!", but it's misinformation

It's easier to control when holding shift

Also trampolines are banana peels, so they possess rocket jump 💀

[quasi nest]

This is a sentence that totally makes sense, I swear I'm not crazy

[keen osprey]

reporting your own bug is crazy

[keen osprey]

enough sense for me

[quasi nest]

It is a bug that was funny enough to become a feature

[keen osprey]

this kind of developers like you, this world doesn't deserve 🙏

peak

[quasi nest]

It's only about 10% more useful when executed on a trampoline so it's probably fine to keep

I could fix it, however

[keen osprey]

nah, who cares about that
wait for someone to report this "issue"

[quasi nest]

No fun allowed

[keen osprey]

fun is illegal

[viscid coyote]

I got blasted with balls
10/10 interior 🔥

[scarlet basin]

Why can't your ballpits be like theirs.

[viscid coyote]

my ballpits are the ballpits we deserve

[burnt cedar]

i know wesleys ball pits kill you but what do the pits here do 🤔

[scarlet basin]

Jump in and find out. 😉

[scarlet basin]

Needs more shotguns.

[viscid coyote]

only 80% of those are coderebirth i think

[quasi nest]

PlayZone v1.0.2 uploaded!

• Reduced overall size of dungeon a fair bit, mainly targeting number of branch paths and their length.
• Adjusted all hazard and scrap nodes to avoid potentially floating hazards, as well as items spawning inside the LaserZone pillars (or going through the floor, but that was due to something library-related).
• Custom scrap with 'set' locations now have their intended rotation when they show up there (e.g. Bowling balls on shelves being in slight disarray).
• Added a scan node to swinging bars, with brief instructions on how to grab on to it.
• Fixed (hopefully) rotator hazards potentially being able to push people through walls and out of the map, when going extremely fast.
• Adjusted some of the custom scraps' values and rarities a bit.
• Added a few PlayZone-themed cosmetics for MoreCompany:
  • Laser Vest
  • Laser Gun
  • Ball Cannon
  • Cardboard Crown

(Not actually uploaded yet, I lied )

[clear kettle]

does inverse teleporting not work on playzone? i've tried a couple times and it just doesnt do anything when thats the interior

[late roost]

That's odd, I've been inversing just fine

Even had a moment with my friends where I inversed in and appeared right on a trampoline and immediately was bouncing

[clear kettle]

must be a conflict with something else I have. I'll play around with stuff and see if I can find out what

[visual obsidian]

Hey guys

I know this'll sound like a strange question

but what version of Bozoros was the last one before it updated to v50?

[visual badge]

Hey matt, we keep getting this error spam whenever the Purple Blaster is in a storage closet. As a client I cannot see the blaster at all, and when it is dropped near me I fall through the ship floor mid-orbit.

[quasi nest]

Oh wha

Thonk

[scarlet basin]

Yeah its being weird lol

It is one of the cursed items, I see

[quasi nest]

Item that causes clients to fall through ship 💀

[scarlet basin]

yeah he cant see green one either xD

[quasi nest]

Heralded by a NaN error spam

[scarlet basin]

LMFAO

[quasi nest]

I shall look into it lmao

[scarlet basin]

Also want to file a complaint!

[quasi nest]

Also the version right before v2.0.0

v1.0.1

[scarlet basin]

I took my crew to the circus last night to have some fun and entertainment, and while expecting Play Zone we instead were left with complete depression and saddness....it was grand armory xD

[visual badge]

we entered the "staff only" door

[scarlet basin]

Oh the blasters just crashed me

[quasi nest]

Huh

[visual badge]

when i quit and came back, i saw the blasters and pew-pewed the green one and dropped it
then I pew-pewed the purple but when I dropped it, it disappeared and we both went into the floor

[scarlet basin]

My complaint was a joke btw lol just wanted to express you having Grand Armory hidden in the circus filled me with much sadness xD

[quasi nest]

You can disable the custom scrap through PlayZone's config, so they don't spawn

[quasi nest]

Also

There be ball pits in Grand Armory

[scarlet basin]

LIESSSSS THEY ARE NOT THE FUN BALL PITS! THEY ARE BALL PITS OF SADNESS

[visual obsidian]

thank you

[scarlet basin]

this clip part way in shows an enemy in a spot you cant path

the later half is me trapped in a funny way

Lockers on this interior are evil!

[quasi nest]

Thonk

It's fine NavMesh-wise

[scarlet basin]

Weird lol.

I'll keep an eye out for other enemy issues there.

and see if its consistent or if he just got lazy.

[quasi nest]

Also lmao Locker 💀

[scarlet basin]

That dude put me through hell. The clips go on of me dodging him and eventually turning around to him full speed into my dead end tunnel with no escape

[visual obsidian]

Wait I have an idea

for a video

showcasing this mod

or well the Playzone

Ironman challenge but the only interior is the Playzone

[burnt cedar]

oh yeah i only wish the glass in the tubes had an actual grime texture so it was easier to see

thats my only complaint rn

[quasi nest]

It's got one but it needs to be illuminated to see it

[old bobcat]

how did you get playzone to appear like it's in the abyss, without the moon visible above?

[quasi nest]

Comically large plane on top of main entrance + sky volume

Also killed the sun 🌞

[bleak remnant]

i think vanilla kills the sun no?

[strange beacon]

it doesnt

you can see the sun outside main on factory and mineshaft

[quasi nest]

Yeah sun was saying hi later on in the day

[strange beacon]

if its visible from there

[bleak remnant]

maybe im thinking of cullfactory that would do that...

i remember while im debugging the outside goes super dark

[quasi nest]

I think the skybox is hidden, but I forget

I know lighting's different because of the reverb trigger switch when going inside, so when you teleport out through Imperium or something you still have the inside lighting and the outside looks pretty dark

[quasi nest]

(I just turn off its renderer when entering or inverse teleporting, and turn it back on when exiting or teleporting back to ship )

[old bobcat]

also, how did you do the generation of the interior? it has alot of verticality which is awesome

[quasi nest]

Tiles are very modular/uniform in their size, they can stack on top of each other pretty easily, so with tiles like this jump one it just makes it pretty tall

[late roost]

I realized that the cosmetics aren't actually in the latest version, we'll throw them into the next patch

[quasi nest]

I forgor to include 💀

[granite imp]

LOVE THE NEW INTERIOR!

ONE THING

Is it normal for like the square foam death pit to sound like mud

I mean they both do the same thing

but it's kinda weird?

[quasi nest]

Yeahh I'm just using the vanilla quicksand script for it, and the mud sound effect is pretty hard coded (kinda like footsteps)

I gotta add drowning to the thing I use for the ball pit

It is fake water

More of a spider web than water

[granite imp]

it shouldnt be mud tbj i like how it is

[quasi nest]

Oh no I mean to also use it for the cubes

Ball pit's staying like that

But I can reuse script

[granite imp]

i mean... as lkong as it dont sound like mud lol

[quasi nest]

Yeah it'd avoid the mud sounds

Kinda like how the ball pit avoids water sounds

[granite imp]

Hooray!

[late roost]

We're gonna be adding some stuff so the interior is less... quiet

[pallid sonnet]

add Frebby fazbar /j

[sleek plover]

This is such a cool detail omg

[bleak remnant]

im confused what am i looking at

[sleek plover]

The bubble window tile of the playzone interior

[bleak remnant]

still confused

[bleak remnant]

oh those deadend tiles

[burnt cedar]

too bad it never shows up without flashlights...

i sometimes cant tell theres plastic there etiher

lethal company shader jank

https://tenor.com/view/kicking-cat-cat-kicking-happy-cat-sitting-cat-cat-sitting-gif-23846150

[quasi nest]

Showing up because of flashlight is extra creepy lmao

But yeah glass looks a bit wacky without lighting

It shall be addressed

[burnt cedar]

hurrah!

also

had a sudden idea

what if the foam death pits actually teleported you somewhere random and dropped your items

incredibly punishing, but not as punishing as before

would lead to some scary scenarios

also would be super illogical

but

[quasi nest]

I think the jumping until out of stamina could work

[burnt cedar]

since when was logic in the realm of possibility

[quasi nest]

I just gotta cook it

[burnt cedar]

makes senseingtons

so just

dont fall in when out of staminup

[quasi nest]

I must add drowning to my PlayerHinderer™

It's actually a spider web but I pretend it's water

[burnt cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/kitten-orange-kitty-cat-fat-kitten-gif-294206017747515862

yah yah

[late roost]

Actually adjusted this earlier today

now you can see it without a flashlight

just had to multiply the mask into the basecolor in photoshop

just photoshop nans

also cubes will always be death but we are making changes to make it easier to deal with

irl the cube pits are quite hard to get out of

[bleak remnant]

and that one incident in twitchcon where someone got injured really badly

[late roost]

wait actually?

i'm internetly inept and don't know about this

[bleak remnant]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJPGEIFOiJs

broken back + more people got injured from it

[late roost]

yeowch

[burnt cedar]

yay

[burnt cedar]

true

but ive never sunk into the floor in them and never returned personally

idk maybe that happened to a couple kids before

[late roost]

yeeeaahhh but at this point the idea has been abstracted enough to be threatening in a game

[burnt cedar]

yeagh

[late roost]

my brother worked at a trampoline place, he had to clean out the foam cube pit

told me that people drop all kinds of things in there

stray pills, knives, jewelry

[burnt cedar]

damn??? knives???

[late roost]

yeah like pocket knives

[burnt cedar]

ah

[nocturne charm]

just doing random testing

pulling one app then the other and waiting for the timer doesnt seem to do anything?

[late roost]

||the elevator falls and stays stuck at the bottom when the timer runs out||

the 2 min timer was built in mind for facilitymeltdown otherwise

[nocturne charm]

ahh

i dont have any suggestion for an addition or change but that experience felt "broken" to me

was giving my friends a tour last night 😄

[burnt cedar]

||does it tell you it will do that?||

||maybe it should like have a warning sign next to it, if not||

[nocturne charm]

I also had a super duper morbid idea while talking with them for ||rare chance to find a little skeleton incase timmy never found his way out of the playground||

[burnt cedar]

enter the ballpit

find skeleton hand reaching out

[nocturne charm]

no joke one of my core memories is being invited to a gymnastic place for a birthday party when i was super young and being stuck in the bottom middle of a cube pit

i might be the #1 target audience for the bit

[late roost]

||i'm gonna add a lore friendly addition in the partyzone that spawns if the log there shows up||

[nocturne charm]

they also had the idea of ||kid voicelines asking for mom or mommy etc.|| as rare ambients

might be too on the nose tho idk

[burnt cedar]

yeah that might feel odd

i dont see the place as innately supernatural

we are the lost children of the company

[quasi nest]

That one random "Hey!" ambient sound kinda has that vibe

• ghost girl 💀

[late roost]

there's not really any way I can think of having one that makes sense in the world fiction idk

[strange beacon]

ah i remember when there was a myth that ambient sound meant ghost girl was on the map

good times

[late roost]

i don't like having signs that explicitly tell the player what to do, thats why hold space to swing is in playground rules

[late roost]

or the one backrooms looking room means a bracken spawned

[nocturne charm]

oh also

my biggest critque

[strange beacon]

theres still people who believe this

its not fully dead yet

[nocturne charm]

none of those spheres have helicopter controls guys what the fuck are we doing here

[quasi nest]

Oh I added it as a scan node too (like Bozo balloon), not exactly in-world but still informs player

[nocturne charm]

google wont give me the examples i desire but surely you know what i mean

[burnt cedar]

||"employee warning: incase of power power outage, block off elevator access for customer safety. Unpowered elevator liable to malfunction or failure"||

[burnt cedar]

i dont understand how

[strange beacon]

because this game doesnt really explain a lot about how it works

and theres so much misinfo/misunderstanding that both wikis are wrong in a lot of things still

[nocturne charm]

Also kinda random/ignorant question

Do you guys know what the reason is for why custom interiors tend to have worse dispersal of scrap than vanilla ones? I know-ish how the systems work but im curious if theres something im doing wrong for why in some cases they dont seem to deliver the same experience, or if its just custom content setup skill issue

[quasi nest]

Probably just setup skill issue, I'm still strugglin with that a bit

[strange beacon]

so the way scrap spawns is through usage of what people tend to call "loot circles"

although the location doesnt need to be a circle

[nocturne charm]

im not trying to be rude here whatsoever

[strange beacon]

its just a set invisible radius scrap spawns

[nocturne charm]

but the question was specific to the people making the interiors

[stuck plume]

One put me in a knee brace for six months... Still kinda worth.

[nocturne charm]

i appreciate it tho

[strange beacon]

the reason so many modded interiors feel off is because of bad loot circle placement

my best guess is modders dont realize scrap can only spawn from them

and just assume they can spawn anywhere

[quasi nest]

Thonk

[nocturne charm]

if thats the case then thats fine but im just somewhat concerned thats not 100% the case

[late roost]

idk we have a lot of nodes in a lot of places but I'm still struggling to find stuff here

[burnt cedar]

i placed them in more specific spots after i reworked my stuff

before they kinda just sat on the floor lol

[late roost]

I also get this issue in Toy Store but I might just be inept at being able to find scrap there

[burnt cedar]

i usually only find stuff in the little lookout glass tubes

[late roost]

idk

[strange beacon]

no toy store genuinely doesnt have many loot circle placements

[burnt cedar]

honestly 99% of times its hard to find scrap, its just cus the interior generates way too big

[nocturne charm]

i do think one aspect of it is just some custom interiors being generally too big compared to vanilla but only to an extent

[burnt cedar]

although

it can also be because of glitched scrap placements

[strange beacon]

the only ones are chests, on top of double shelf storage things, and on top of some shelfs without back ends

oh and on those round shelves

[bleak remnant]

i can think of a way to measure/test that somewhat, afaik tiles have bounds? are you able to get the volume of a tile -> volume of an interior, get the amount of scrap that spawned and sort of determine how much of the interior had scrap in comparison to vanilla interiors

[nocturne charm]

i have such an easy solution to this one that i should really make a mod about

[strange beacon]

you can also count the cake exploding

but no one really does the cake seriously

[bleak remnant]

i stopped caring about the cake after it became a "if you dont beat it fully alive u get no rewards"

[nocturne charm]

ye, tho worth noting some vanilla tiles have fucked bounds, i have to recalculate them myself for the radar shit ive been doing

[bleak remnant]

too high risk for bothering to get a reward

[strange beacon]

i think the only room that can have scrap on the floor is the pink apparatus one

[burnt cedar]

yeah i think so

[bleak remnant]

icic, it could be a way to measure whether its completely on interior size maybe

[burnt cedar]

wesleys interiors are all great i love them, but balancing is not a strongsuit

between the instakills, etc they are pretty tough

[nocturne charm]

oh that's easy too btw!

[burnt cedar]

but enjoyable

[nocturne charm]

thats another mod i should do, is replace the arbitary y value in basegame with the real boudns

[strange beacon]

i just dont like how unfriendly wesleys interiors are to casuals

[burnt cedar]

also batby, im now just registering that you magically appeared after your long hiatus

welcome back
