These probably should have a thread too.
Full spectrum of Pride suits for every identity.

“I wonder if they have Demiboy?”
Currently includes 77 pride flags!
“Okay they probably have Demiboy.”
long urchin
lol i wanted to make sure everyone i could think of was represented
and yes it has Demiboy
jaunty rover
Considering you have a less suits option, there’s not really any reason to not do so if you want to do it!
long urchin
exactly!
jaunty rover
Although it could potentially be better to have it list suits you want to use instead?
long urchin
afaik the more suits mod only supports having a disallow list with less suits and not an allow list
jaunty rover
Ahhh
long urchin
it would be great if they added a config option to make it the other way but yeah
i also have a similar issue with the cosmetics mod since you cant hide cosmetics there, so you end up with a large amount of pride items in the list
though now that i think about it, maybe i can make a companion mod that loads before any cosmetic mod that goes and disables any cosmetics by renaming the file before loading other mods
jaunty rover
idk if it is or not, but it could be helpful to have the list (or have it separately) be formatted in a way you could just delete the ones you want to keep
bc I assume you need to add commas after everything
long urchin
yeah for most removal methods its usually a list of file names separated by comas, im not sure if a better way is possible with out writing a bunch of new gui items
jaunty rover
Oh, you could potentially do something using LethalConfig
long urchin
i mean yeah i could generate a list of bool values you can just uncheck to hide or something
long urchin
but i would have to have it scan the whole plugin directory first
which might make startup slower
jaunty rover
Can’t localize it?
Could make enabling it a config setting that defaults to off, but you can turn it on, and then after customization you turn it off
long urchin
i mean what im thinking of is basically a manged way to do this for all cosmetics and potentially suits as well, like im picturing it like a utility that would just scan for things on startup so you could then disable or enable things in lethal config
jaunty rover
Sounds kind of clunky but should be possible
long urchin
i would probably add a drop down as the first option to let you decide its an allow or disallow, so like everything is enabled by default, but if you change it to disallow then it disables all except the ones you check or uncheck
long urchin
Sounds kind of clunky but should be possible
in theory i can make it fairly performant, i have methods that already can find files in parallel threads fast
jaunty rover
i would probably add a drop down as the first option to let you decide its an al...
Yeah that’d probably be the way to do it
long urchin
i just need to figure out how to make my mod load first lol
jaunty rover
in theory i can make it fairly performant, i have methods that already can find ...
Oh I just meant clunky in execution
long urchin
fair
jaunty rover
Wait
Idea
Defaults to on
And then at the end there’s a box to tick to disable the customization scan
That way config is easily manageable but only has impact on first boot
long urchin
the only problem with that is if a mod updates or you install a new one and it adds new cosmetics
but i could also add caching for the found files and just exclude them from the paralell searching
jaunty rover
Well you’d only be managing the config of your specific mod
LethalConfig is essentially just an in game UI for config editing
long urchin
right i can do a version of this to bundle with my mods directly that only scans what is in those mods, that part is easy, but i was envisioning something that could be used for a mod pack with a ton of cosmetic and suit mods to make pack makers have control of what shows and what doesnt since the mods that add the ability to change those things dont have filters and this way when you share the pack code it will automatically go and do the same for everyone who installs the pack
long urchin
(also i already use LethalConfig in my two other coded mods lol)
right
but in game lol
jaunty rover
That sounds neat
long urchin
ima add it to my list of things to do, i think it would be fairly easy to do, just have to look at how the chain loader works and how to inject it before the various mods that handle these things
jaunty rover
I feel like it’d be either surprisingly easy or annoying difficult
No inbetween
At least for the base functionality
long urchin
lol yeah thats kinda where im at too
it honestly might just be me adding in soft dependencies but ill have to test it
long urchin
i just have to make sure it makes it so things load after mine, i havent had a chance to really play with that process yet
jaunty rover
Both MoreCompany and Advanced Company have cosmetic stuff built in, and it’s likely a player using this would have one of those
long urchin
right
jaunty rover
And ACs fully compatible with MCs afaik
long urchin
and i wouldnt be able to affect anything inside a dll, just .cosmetic files
yeah it is
it actually neuters MC entirely
jaunty rover
Yeah
What I meant was you could use either one as the soft dependency and it wouldn’t matter
long urchin
right
long urchin
yeah thats the only one that i know of that has a way to disable suits
the other one seems to be a bit more clunky
jaunty rover
What’s the other one?
long urchin
im trying to find it, its like additional suits i think
long urchin
oh yeah they moved it to this library https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/AlexCodesGames/AdditionalContentFramework/
and i know it has a totally different folder structure
long urchin
yeah his original mod just became image files instead of a dll and image files
jaunty rover
ik some modders post a core for their mods separately to make file sizes smaller
long urchin
cause this is the original one https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/AlexCodesGames/AdditionalSuits/
jaunty rover
Yeah I have additinalsuits in a pack I made the other day actually lol
It has Additonal Content Framework as a dependency
long urchin
yeah
i think ill support moresuits first since i know it better and then look at supporting this one after
jaunty rover
Yeah
long urchin
might have to patch their methods depending on how it works
jaunty rover
Maybe have moresuits as a hard dependency for now then
And then MoreCompany and AdvancedCompany as soft dependencies
long urchin
well i think i can do it with out any hard ones because i can check if a mod is loaded and enable that part of the manager mod and just not do that part, so it would be more of soft depend to load first and then check to see which suit mods are installed
jaunty rover
Ahh yeah that’s better
long urchin
or rather check if a mod exists in the mods.yml
jaunty rover
And just have in the mod description the info
long urchin
right
it might make sense to do like a SuitManager and a CosmeticsManager as separate mods, just for control of need
jaunty rover
And then just have it so if both are installed they kinda combine?
That’s definitely not the right word
long urchin
well they would just bet separate menus in lethal config
jaunty rover
Oh right, right
long urchin
so you would just click which one you want to configure basically lol
now im excited to work on this but have so many things infront of it lol
long urchin
ooo
jaunty rover
In reference to the Pride mods lmfao
long urchin
hahaha
jaunty rover
SuitCloset, CosmeticCloset
long urchin
love it
jaunty rover
It’s such a stupid joke, it’d be great lol
long urchin
lol yeah
i could also make a version and bundle with my mods so if someone doesnt want to have one manage all and just want to manage mine then they can and then if the big ones are present then i would just make the individual ones not do anything
jaunty rover
If the file size wouldn’t increase much, I’d say that isn’t a bad idea
long urchin
yeah i think it would just add a few kb
jaunty rover
Oh yeah so that isn’t an issue at all
long urchin
my biggest mod is only 39kb and this one would have way less in terms of things to do
plus i wouldnt need to patch any game methods
jaunty rover
my biggest mod is only 39kb and this one would have way less in terms of things ...
Oh wow, that’s tiny
long urchin
yeah
jaunty rover
Oh well I guess considering the flags would be small textures with flat colours
That’d also help keep file sizes low
long urchin
well when i said biggest size i meant the dll size but yeah, the textures i use i try and optimize them as much as i can with out losing quality
long urchin
yeah i realized i wasnt clear lol
jaunty rover
But yeah if you ever need any kind of testing done for this I’d be glad to help
long urchin
thanks! im sure i will need it, when i start working on that and have something to test ill post here
jaunty rover
Noo I was gonna send a lil thumbs up lethal company emote but they limited emotes apparently
Wonder when they changed that
long urchin
earlier today i think
i have a feeling there was some abuse, potentially some of which hit the pride flags mod thread
long urchin
same
jaunty rover
(I absolutely do, I think it’s funny to watch people purposefully enter an environment they dislike and then complain about it)
jaunty rover
Like bruh you’re the one who joined the thread
long urchin
although i was seeing the random 🇱 and 🇼 reacts showing up
jaunty rover
Pfft
long urchin
yeah i dont get why people join things they dont want to see
jaunty rover
I remember the clown react fiasco from the pronoun indicator thread
Was there for it
long urchin
yeah... bigots gonna bigot i guess
jaunty rover
I mean it’s also trolls trying to bait people
long urchin
true
jaunty rover
Which admittedly is very easy to do when it comes to this kinda stuff
I like messing with ‘em lol
long urchin
lol yeah counter trolling is the best defense since they usually dont think beyond their first troll
