🔱 Enhanced Monsters

[somber canopy]

Oh

Yeah you can't farm anything at all there

[wooden copper]

the ground looks like violet foil

[somber canopy]

It's old bird party only

[wooden copper]

It's easy to enter, almost impossible to get out

We were 5, only two of use made it to the ship

[somber canopy]

Without a jetpack

[wooden copper]

on foot

with loot

[somber canopy]

Yeah

Lore moon

Not gameplay

More like an own challenge

[wooden copper]

I'll try to make a button to access the EnemiesData.json file but I forgot how to open the explorer

[wooden copper]

The mod is now configurable on all config mods, it has soft supports for them and a button to access the EnemiesData config right in the settings

(Left is LethalSettings, right is LethalConfig)

[austere ermine]

Is there an option to disable selling the corpses of entities

[wooden copper]

I'm not sure to understand why you would like to disable the main feature lol

Is it for the same reasons as Spinmaster ?

[austere ermine]

No

I just like the feature of being able to hear entities from main outside

and the hazard level signs

[somber canopy]

Nice!

[somber canopy]

That's pretty cool ngl

[polar berry]

When this says WIP does it mean it's still work in progress but in the game or just WIP coming soon?

[somber canopy]

What?

It's the same thing...?

🤨

[polar berry]

What I mean is the things are implemented into the game but still being worked on overtime at the same time? Or not in the game yet and still being worked on without it being in the mod yet

[somber canopy]

I would mainly say it's not in game yet but you should hear it from @wooden copper

To be 100% sure

[wooden copper]

This is not available yet, the feature is not implemented as written on the readme

[austere ermine]

Oh

I thought WIP meant the feature was there, just unfinished

[wooden copper]

It's work in progress, I'm working on it but it's not working yet

[wooden copper]

Yeah my bad, I will clarify

[austere ermine]

FoxHappy

[finite haven]

was it by chance...cube shaped...

[shadow saddle]

What do the ranks do?

[wooden copper]

Nothing, it's just cosmetic

I think it's a little thing that was missed in the game, as a fan of RPG games

[shadow saddle]

Oh, I was hoping higher ranks would make monsters more valuable

Maybe they're slightly faster and stronger too

[wooden copper]

Yeah it does that

They have higher sell values

But it's not changing their abilities otherwise

[shadow saddle]

Oooh, alrighty

I like that

[wooden copper]

New patch this afternoon, I hesitate between making it the version 1.1.0 or if I keep the 1.x for feature updates

[somber canopy]

no

@wooden copper dm when you can

[wooden copper]

can what ?

I'm still inspecting, I don't understand I couldn't fix sync issues

[somber canopy]

Saw you were playing Valorant

[wooden copper]

yeah happens sometimes

[wooden copper]

1000 individual downloads and yet, my mod only works fine in certain conditions where the host picks the enemy scrap first

[wooden copper]

Hopefully I'll fix sync issues today

[outer hare]

good luck bro

[wooden copper]

If I fix it, trust me I'll call it a patch and not a hotfix

Lemme explain my versioning format real quick

X.y.z
X=Release
Y=Patch
Z=Hotfix

[outer hare]

gotcha

ready for the 1.1

[wooden copper]

I hope I'll be able to release it

[wooden copper]

New update this evening eventually, if what I'm doing is working ???????

Synchronization issues are gone on my side

[sour wasp]

I'll test it when it's out, been really looking forward to this tbh

[wooden copper]

from all my tests, it's fixed now

Synchronization fixed

I can grab it, drop it, drop it back and move it again from the client without any issues!

@outer hare it's fixed 👍

[outer hare]

yay

[wooden copper]

Version 1.1.0 releasing in a couple minutes !

I'm writing the changelog

[wooden copper]

New patch v1.1.0 ! Check the changelogs on one of the following links 😄

https://github.com/VELD-Dev/Enhanced-Monsters/releases/tag/1.1.0
https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/VELD/Enhanced_Monsters

[outer hare]

1.0.6?

[wooden copper]

Hmm

That's weird, I changed the version name in the manifest

?

[outer hare]

that's weird

[wooden copper]

I fixed it but I hope it won't happen again... there's a floating file that is just not versionned correctly
https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/VELD/Enhanced_Monsters/

[crisp lily]

Hey! I am going to be adding a soft dependency for your mod to my gargoyle mod.

I followed your instructions. I just wanted to make sure that this is all I need to do for registering (attached picture)? Do I need to supply a model or scrap item?

Also, can I specify the scrap item that drops? I have a scrap item that comes with my mod, that's just a slightly smaller version of the gargoyle, with some custom interactions built in, that would be cool to use as the body of the dead monster.

Forgot to paste it lol

[wooden copper]

For now, i haven't added the mob drops, I have added only mob ranks and mob as scrap functionalities which I made mod-compatible

ALTHOUGH

In the future, I do plan adding mob loots yep !

But you will have to make your mobs "unsellable" (not pickable)

[crisp lily]

Sweet! I'll leave it as is for now. Thank you!

I'll probably be adding this to my personal modpack as well in place of sell bodies. I like the modded enemy functionality you have.

[wooden copper]

I am truly thankful that you use my mod as a soft dependency, that's super kind and really motivating haha
Please report me any issue you have, like if your mob doesn't show the correct rank, if it doesn't register correctly, etc...

[crisp lily]

Absolutely! I use sell bodies as my mod currently, but I will be switching once I get this update out. I like being able to have more control over the modded enemies, rather than a blanket config for all of them.

[wooden copper]

Technically, Enhanced Monster v1.1.0 is now stable enough to replace SellBodies, but tests are required, I need people to try to break it so I'll just wait for my dear testers here to report me bugs 😄

[wooden copper]

Totally agree, that's even why I made the mod lol
Also, it's really really important, your mob requires a ScanNode somewhere to have its rank and (potentially) dead body scrap value shown, when I made the mod, I assumed that mobs that doesn't have scannode are not killable basically (as they are most of the time client-side only, like the ghost girl)

[outer hare]

will do a test "hopefully" soon lol

[wooden copper]

It's not urging, no worries

I'll take a break to enjoy my own mod with my friends tomorrow anyways lol

[crisp lily]

Yep, ScanNode is on my mob! Can't wait to try it out. I'll let you know how it goes!

[wooden copper]

Good news about the mob looting functionality, it's the next one I'll be working on, I thought I'd make a Nutcracker-only functionality but what you've told gave me an idea, I'll make it a whole thing in Enhanced Monsters so modders can add their own loots

It might be possible to add it inside EnemyData as well although I'm not really sure how to implement that yet

It might be super easy if all the items are registered in one and same list

but it might also be super hard if they're not

[wooden copper]

Oh also, it's ultra super mega important, the EnemyName NEEDS to be the exact same one than the one defined inside your EnemyType, it might sound weird but I'm not recognizing monsters by their Prefab/GameObject name, I'm using their EnemyType for that, so yeah, if it doesn't work first time, check if you didn't put the wrong string

[crisp lily]

That would be this one correct?

[wooden copper]

Yeah that's this one

The Enemy Name shown on the ScanNode will remain the exact same than the one you defined inside your ScanNodeProperties

[crisp lily]

I got 2 errors when loading for the first time on my dev profile.

First one is looking for LethalConfig
Second one seems to not like my enemy being registered.

Log is attached

[wooden copper]

Is this 1.1.0 ?

[crisp lily]

Yes

[wooden copper]

the first one is very unexpected

as it worked correctly with LethalSettings

ohh

[wooden copper]

it's becaue of Netcode Patcher

I don't know if really affects the game though

when are you calling your RegisterMyMobs function ?

[crisp lily]

I'm calling it in my awake method

[wooden copper]

Yeah that's why

You should run it inside your Start function I think

either that orrr

hmm

Yeah I'll eventually make a fix so you can call it in Awake

yeah no, it's better to do it in Start()

can't make a fix for that

[crisp lily]

I was going to use Start, but it warned me that Start was unused, so I used Awake instead.

[wooden copper]

yeah that's normal Visual Studio shit

[sour wasp]

so does this mod require custom enemies to register them through their own mod?

[wooden copper]

don't pay attention to it

Start is ran once, one frame after Awake iirc

[wooden copper]

No, but modded enemies can register themselves their default values

omg

oh burh

I made a GIGANTIC unsafe error

just saw it while rereading my code

[sour wasp]

yea enemies still don't drop as far as I can tell, because I'm getting theses errors

[crisp lily]

Ah! Gotchya, I'll just suppress the warning then. My OCD makes it impossible to ignore stuff like that xD

[wooden copper]

1.1.0 ?

But it works on my machine 🤨

which enemy are you killing ?

[sour wasp]

custom nutcracker colors, aloe, pikmin, etc\

lord of the manor as well

maneater kinda works

[wooden copper]

yeah so far I see, EnhancedMonsters is not installed here

[sour wasp]

it should be

because it gave me 3 different errors

[wooden copper]

Oh that's probably because of Discord preview

[sour wasp]

and the nutcracker spit a massive one I couldn't paste

[crisp lily]

@wooden copper
I moved it to "Start" and I am still getting the error. Is it from how I'm registering it?

[wooden copper]

hmmm

can you show me your Start function ?

[wooden copper]

Okay lemme think

So for now, I'll give you a workaround

I'll fix it in a future hotfix

But basically, my mod registers too late because it needs the SyncedConfig of it to be loaded

I'll fix it soon but for now you solution is

(i'm searching in the game files)

[wooden copper]

I'm looking at currently

yeah I found why some of the enemies didn't work

first I forgot to add the "return" you can see here

Second, I'm searching for the ScanNode object like a noob

I'm fixing this right now

[crisp lily]

Ah gotchya, I can hold off on adding the soft dependency till you get it fixed. It's no biggie. I can test a hot fix once you're able to get to it. I appreciate the help though! I'm very much looking forward to using this!

[wooden copper]

This one is normal, don't pay attention to it, it happens because the main menu is initialised twice for some obscure reason even Zeekers probably don't know, so it misses the text on bottom left corner

[wooden copper]

Although this one, I'll check why it h appens. Do you have exactly three Nutcracker reskin mods ?

hmm

Okk so there's a problem

I have no way of knowing which skin the mob had, so unless mobs have a specific identifier telling which skin they have, maybe though a component containing data, then I can only spawn the main nutcracker model

[wooden copper]

Yeah this one is weird, it tells that basically their scraps already exist but for some reasons it says it multiple times

[sour wasp]

should be from this https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/DistinctBlaze/ColorfulEnemyVariety/

[wooden copper]

Hmm yeah they will only have one colour for now

I'll check but it would probably require one specific implementation for each skin mod if they do not have any identifier on their reskinned entity

So it currently works with modded mobs, but skins will probably not appear, it's even almost totally sure they won't

[polar berry]

compatibility to grind these little tulip snakes into meat? (Compatability for the farming and cooking mod)

[clever verge]

I don't know what is causing this issue but when I killed monsters I am unable to grab their bodies

Let me try once more

[wooden copper]

whaaaat

[clever verge]

After relaunching

[wooden copper]

Which mob ?

[clever verge]

spider and thumper

just tried those two

[wooden copper]

It's really important to specify as it might be fixed in next update

[polar berry]

In other news

[wooden copper]

Yeah it will be fixed in next update

[wooden copper]

ow shit, another collider not removing correctly

https://tenor.com/view/sad-cat-meme-colorful-dank-gif-16211498

[wooden copper]

Maneater ?

looks like maneater

fuck

hate them

[polar berry]

👍

[wooden copper]

why do they have hidden colliders

[clever verge]

Is it normal then to get no leftover from those 2 mobs?

[wooden copper]

whats this about

[wooden copper]

Yeah, basically the issue is that their ScanNode was not at the root of their GameObject, so it was not finding it, but I assumed that all the mobs whose I couldn't find the ScanNode was a client side mob that couldn't be killed, so basically it aborted their scrap creation

[polar berry]

invisible bracken remains

[wooden copper]

To make it simple, the mob scrap wasn't registered because I'm a noob

what the bracken

I'll try with him later

Publishing a first hotfix right now

[clever verge]

Ok then also, is this mod compatible with ship inventory mod?

[polar berry]

just reporting what I see 😅

[clever verge]

When you put their bodies in the chute

Will they break?

I was trying to do it but

Couldn't get any remnant so...

[polar berry]

are we not meant to get spider remains or

[clever verge]

Just asking

[wooden copper]

I'll be honest, I don't know at all, it seems like they are not saved actually but I don't know how I can make it save them, LethalLib and the game don't make errors

[wooden copper]

Ye i'm publishing a fix right now that fixes that

[clever verge]

What I just asked 😛

[polar berry]

nutcrackers included?

[wooden copper]

Hmmm

I haven't included this feature

I assume they actually hold the real item

can you pick it up ?

[polar berry]

if your talking about the body then no.

[wooden copper]

no I'm talking about the shotgun

[polar berry]

tried this out in the test room

no. Also the audio for them is there now. even when they are dead.

(I even have the enemy sound fix mod)

[wooden copper]

yeah it's normal

The enemy you see here

isn't the "scrap" version of them

it's their real self

[polar berry]

so eventually to be replaced by a corpse

or remains

[wooden copper]

ye next hotfix has this fixed

it should spawn their scrap self normally

Thunderstore just takes ages to reload

https://github.com/VELD-Dev/Enhanced-Monsters/releases/tag/1.1.1

But the fix is already available on GitHub

Also, Giants should now have their rank shown correctly

maybe

[polar berry]

in 1.1.1 or

[wooden copper]

Alright, Thunderstore page reloaded https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/VELD/Enhanced_Monsters/

[wooden copper]

In 1.1.0

[polar berry]

bad news then

[wooden copper]

woah

they don't have any subtext at all

that's original

why do they have no subtext

[polar berry]

Shrug

[wooden copper]

yknow what, I'll check that by myself tomorrow

[polar berry]

need logs or somthin?

[wooden copper]

nope

[polar berry]

alr

[wooden copper]

I'd need to see their full gameobject, that's why I'll do it myself

Hotfix 1.1.1 released. Changelog:

[polar berry]

Back to this for a second

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/MelanieMelicious/Farming_and_Cooking_Mod_MelanieMelicious/

there was a compatability with selldeadbodiesfixed for this

so you could grind up the scrap from the remains from that mod

and I'm curious if this one can do that!

[wooden copper]

grind up the scrap from the remains ?

wut

[polar berry]

Lets say you want to put a tulip snake in a meat grinder

you grind it and it turns into meat

and you can use that to create recipes like idk

meat loaf or somethin

[wooden copper]

yeah uh bad news

I don't know how it works so this mod probably have severe conflicts with my mod

because if you can actually grab dead monsters and all

[polar berry]

I just remembered something the mod had an update today to make it so whatever scrap you put in u can grind I think

[wooden copper]

it might have big conflicts

[polar berry]

YEAH WAIT

But it doesn't work cause the name is wrong or somethin

[wooden copper]

Ohhh

Okay so for this

It's "Tulip Snake propized"

I'll eventually call their prefabs in a correct way later, but for now they're called this way

[polar berry]

so is it just "entity name here yada yada propized"

[wooden copper]

yep

They are all suffixed with propized

[polar berry]

alr I'll test it out and see if it works!

[wooden copper]

let's hope it does

This compatibility is made by the other mod, so hopefully it works with Enhanced Monsters

I'll just eventually rename the prefabs to Dead{NameInTheConfigFile}

Now that the 1.1.1 has released on Thunderstore, I'll let you try it and I'll be back tomorrowuh 👍

Good night chat 👋

PS: It might take up to one hour to refresh on your r2modman

and also, @crisp lily the 1.1.1 should have your issue fixed, please retry and let me know if it works in game 😄

[polar berry]

😢 It dont work.

[crisp lily]

Will do!

[wooden copper]

Yeah I forgot what the name of the TulipSnake was in the game prefabs, it might actually not be "Tulip Snake", maybe it's something else, I forgot

[narrow temple]

are these included already or are they future features that arent in yet

[round turret]

I believe they are future features

[finite haven]

this is horror...

[shadow saddle]

Does anyone know if this mod is compatible with https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1253321657297408052

Lethal Mon also adds a tooltip to mobs when spawned to let people know if they're catchable or not

[polar berry]

overlapping

[wooden copper]

Future features

[wooden copper]

Oh well there might be conflicts

So does the mod work with other players ? Are there synchronization issues ?

[wooden copper]

I will start making a setting to make the mod vanilla friendly, but it'll obviously require to restart the game when doing that

[shadow saddle]

I haven't tested yet but I imagine there will be

vanilla bodies work btw

[wooden copper]

This one is still normal, it didn't change

[sour wasp]

modded bodies do not

[wooden copper]

This one is not related to my mod

[wooden copper]

I think I know why but I'll have to try myself

Depending on when the modded mobs are registered, it may not work

Oh btw

Did you change the config to make them actually drop bodies ?

Cuz by default they wont

[sour wasp]

lemme see one sec

[wooden copper]

You need to make them drop their bodies

By default mobs have rank null and everything set to 0 or false

And you need to restart the game to make them spawn

[sour wasp]

gotcha then it should be fine then mb

i'll lyk if it doesn't though

[wooden copper]

Yeah I haven't tried though so if you can tell me if it works I'd be grateful

[sour wasp]

for sure man

[sour wasp]

so good news and bad news

they work but they are invisible along with the bracken when you kill them

and they spit some errors

I'll post the log

[wooden copper]

I'll check that when I'm at home

I'll try to fix the bracken first and see if it also fixed modded monsters

[narrow temple]

definitely excited for the facility doors one

[wooden copper]

It is possible that not all the modded monsters are invisible after killing them

[wooden copper]

Honestly, SeamlessDungeons will do it better, you'll even be able to walk through the door

Idk for the audio though

[narrow temple]

it'll still be a nice feature to use while we wait for all of seamlessdungeons issues to get ironed out

[wooden copper]

I might do the audio thing first tbh

[wooden copper]

Yeah I mean I'll encounter the same issues as Seamless Dungeons

[wooden copper]

in the next hotfix I'll add an icon to the mobs in the inventory

[wooden copper]

So i found a workaround for the bracken not showing a body

but it's really really weird

[wooden copper]

Do modded mobs work ? Is it possible to list modded mobs that doesn't work ?

[crisp lily]

I'll try to test it sometime today

[wooden copper]

Nice thanks !

[crisp lily]

For some reason the Start method on my mod won't run on my test profile. I've disabled everything but my mod and what's needed to run it. Awake runs fine. Start runs on my dev profile. But not with just the base mods.

I know it has nothing to do with your mod, but I can't get the registry to run without this.

This is my start method

This is all I get on my logs. It should show "Start Test" on the log, but I'm not getting that.

[wooden copper]

it's all the mods you have ?

yeah so normally Start() runs quite late in the game

after the credits intro iirc

[crisp lily]

Yep, that's all the mods I have. I let it run to the main menu screen and the start method didn't run. I'm not sure what I did wrong 😮‍💨

Would OnEnable work instead of Start? That one runs after Awake also, but I'm not sure if it runs late enough for your mod.

[wooden copper]

you don't have Enhanced Monsters installed then ?

[wooden copper]

Start == OnEnable

[crisp lily]

I did, but it wasn't registering, so I was slowly disabling mods to figure out why until I got down to just the ones I needed to run my own mod lol.

[crisp lily]

Interesting... OnEnable seems to run, but Start doesn't.

I'll just use that then if they're the same thing and it's working.

Alright, seems to have registered. I only have the mods required to run both our mods, and seem to still be getting the LethalConfig error. I also can't seem to find the EnemiesData.json

I also tried to add LethalConfig to stop the error and got this one:

[wooden copper]

Weird

[wooden copper]

Hmm

Oh bruh I forgot to fix this error

[crisp lily]

I am using Gale if that matters? I noticed your instructions are telling us to navigate to "/BepInEx/plugins/EnhancedMonsters/", but gale has it as "/BepInEx/plugins/VELD-Enhanced_Monsters". If that matters lol

[wooden copper]

It's my bad i must fix the Netcode patcher thing

[crisp lily]

Oh okay. No worries. I'll test again once that's fixed.

[wooden copper]

Hotfix 1.1.2 released !

https://github.com/VELD-Dev/Enhanced-Monsters/releases/tag/1.1.2
https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/VELD/Enhanced_Monsters
(The update may take some time to appear on Thunderstore)

@crisp lily Let me know if the errors happen again

time for sleep now, good night 👋

[crisp lily]

Night!

[sour wasp]

so the modded bodies still don't work

they kinda do I guess, they just spawn elsewhere and the actual item is invisible

also the butler should probably be disabled by default

[wooden copper]

Are your config set correctly ?

[wooden copper]

Why ?

[crisp lily]

Still getting the lethal config error with the new version. Still running with the bare minimum mods.

[sour wasp]

I enabled them in the config and they weren't dropping at all before so I'm pretty sure

Also the amount of errors in the log would suggest so as well

[sour wasp]

It doesn't really fit, especially in a live game sense and kinda nerfs it imo

Not a big deal tho

[wooden copper]

That's very very weird

[sour wasp]

were you able to look through my log?

[wooden copper]

Not yet my bad

I will today

[gentle flax]

Heya, I'm having an odd experience with this mod. It doesn't seem to generate a EnemiesData.json, but the config seems to generate just fine to ask for the dungeon preview and sound exchange.

[sour wasp]

@wooden copper any updates

[crisp lily]

I've been experiencing the same. Can you share what mods you're using and logs if you have them?

[gentle flax]

My mod list is a bit long due to dependencies taking up half of it but yeah I can toss you my log file if you want. I don't seem to have any errors pop up mentioning this mod from what I can tell though.
Want me to just dm it?

[crisp lily]

I figure just post it here so VELD can see it. There MAY be info in there that would be useful to him. What mod manager are you using?

[gentle flax]

None. Manual installation due to some of my buddies not trusting mod managers. Never had an issue with a mod failing to generate a file though.

Here's a fresh log I just generated on a new save file though I suppose.

[wooden copper]

not yet

[crisp lily]

Oh okay, gotchya. I've been trying to see if I could figure out what the cause could be. I thought maybe certain mod managers might be an issue.

[wooden copper]

Yeah uhh

[gentle flax]

Does anyone have a fresh file of EnemiesData? I wonder if dragging it in will just let the mod detect it.

[final shale]

the mod itself doesnt even load for me in general

[wooden copper]

Yeah it seems like Netcode Patcher is messing up my soft dependencies

[gentle flax]

Huh, weird.

[wooden copper]

due to this bug, the mod wants you to have LetalSettings and LethalConfig

Dumb ass patcher

[gentle flax]

We love code being way too specific!

Well I guess it wouldn't hurt for me to add lethal settings in for the time being? As long as it doesn't conflict with lethal config somehow. Never really used the former not so sure what it does.

[wooden copper]

So basically my mod works better on big modpacks than with no modpacks at all lol

It doesn't conflict with LethalConfig but yeah

[gentle flax]

Uhhh mind linking it real quick then

[wooden copper]

I'll try to remake another patch for that but I don't see much more solutions

[gentle flax]

Thank you again for clearing it up though I'd have never figured that out myself

[crisp lily]

So the patcher is failing during config generation if you don't have both of those?

[wooden copper]

Yeah it's because of a bug, to fix it you need to download LethalSettings and LethalConfig

it's because of a stupid bug with NetcodePatcher I'll try to fix

[crisp lily]

Well, that's an easy enough fix in the mean time at least.

[wooden copper]

it's trying to call every single function of the mod that has an attribute

[crisp lily]

ohhhh

[gentle flax]

Ah, yep. I installed Lethal Settings and the file did indeed generate this time.

[wooden copper]

sheeet

[crisp lily]

Getting 2 errors on start up with my main modpack. There are 213 mods, so could be an incompatibility somewhere. Just in case they help, I attached the logs and zipped the sqllite logs from AsyncLoggers.

[wooden copper]

Yeah so the first error of my mod is normal

weird that it didn't fix though

The second error isn't on purpose though

I'm checking

[crisp lily]

Also, it looks like anytime the mod is updated, it wipes the EnemiesData.json file out. So I'd have to re-edit it everytime the mod updates or I need to do a reinstall.

I'm not sure if this is a Gale specific issue or not though.

[wooden copper]

Hmm...

It wipes the enemiesData ?

[crisp lily]

Yeah, when Gale updates or reinstalls mods the entire plugin folder for that mod is deleted and installed again.

[sour wasp]

I have an enemydata.json file on gale

its how i encountered the modded monsters being broken

by deciding to be invisible, and placing the real body as a non-interactable across the map

[crisp lily]

It generates it, and you're able to edit it and play. But when you update the mod, the file is deleted and gets regenerated when you start the game again. So if you make changes to it, your changes will get wiped out after updating the mod.

[sour wasp]

oh gotcha

do you have any idea why it does this btw?

Lemme get a clip of it

[crisp lily]

I assume Gale does this to keep the plugin folder clean? Idk specifically why, though.

[sour wasp]

nono I meant this

The video shows after the redwood titan dies, its body registers invisible and the prop is placed elsewhere

also happened withe every other modded monster

[crisp lily]

Oh, gotchya. I'll test and see if that happens to me too.

[crisp lily]

Maybe you could create a "Enhanced Monsters" folder inside the config folder to put the json in? Similar to what Lethal Quantities does.

[sour wasp]

also the bracken and butler still are broken for me, lemme try too clip that too rq. Then again I'm not gonna use butler bodies anyway because it doesn't make a lot of sense to me

bracken does a similar thing but I can't pick that one up

[crisp lily]

That's kind of funny ngl xD

[wooden copper]

Ohh yeah

I get what you mean

I should put it inside BepInEx/configs/EnhancedMonsters/EnemiesData.json

[crisp lily]

Yeah, that would most likely work.

[wooden copper]

Ohhh i didn't know about that

[crisp lily]

I figured that out the hard way when I was developing my custom voice line system, and the custom voice lines kept getting wiped out lol.

[wooden copper]

Some mobs have an animator that has a bugged "dead" state somehow

Not all

but some of them

I have a possible solution for that but it's not clean

[crisp lily]

I'll see if it happens with my gargoyle, and if it does how to fix it on my end.

[wooden copper]

So for the bracken I don't really know why it happens even after investigation

For the Butler I assume the code I have that waits for the death animation to be finished doesn't work

[sour wasp]

yea turns out the bracken is fine

just the butler (which doesn't affect me at least) and the modded monsters

[wooden copper]

the butler is not invisible

the bracken is

[sour wasp]

I meant the animation glitch the butler has

[wooden copper]

Ah

[sour wasp]

not for me

[wooden copper]

the bracken is not invisible ??

Can you show me ?

[sour wasp]

he just looks goofy

that's all

[wooden copper]

dawg

okay so disabling and re-enabling the animator seems to work on the bracken

Good to know

I think I'll just disable the animator and fuck off the death animation smh

[sour wasp]

You're good man, sorry about all the error reports 😅

[crisp lily]

Awww, but I love the Gargoyles death animation xD

[wooden copper]

Yeah but it looks like some mobs have them bugging

I don't know why the mobs just disappear afterwise

[wooden copper]

No problem, it's just that his error is persisting and I don't know how to fix it

[crisp lily]

Hmm. Maybe make that part of the json? Have it enabled/disabled for the vanilla mobs that work/don't work. Then make modded disabled by default unless they add compatibilty?

Works with my Gargoyle. He just ends up sideways lol.

[wooden copper]

oooh it works nice !

[wooden copper]

Yeah honestly, mobs rotation is so random that I don't even want to deal with that xd

maybe in the future but right now I have more important bugs to fix lol

[wooden copper]

That's a good idea

[crisp lily]

Yeah, no worries. Would you be able to add rotation values to the json too? Then it would be up to the mods maker to set the rotation values when registering the enemy.

[wooden copper]

That's an excellent idea, I was planning on adding a "enemies subdata" object on the enemies data

But I need to check that because I might need to use refs and eventually pointers to avoid duplication of data

[crisp lily]

Ahh, yeah that wouldn't be good xD

[wooden copper]

So can we make a quick review of the default metadata I should add to mobs ?

Mesh position offset

Mesh rotation

Animate On Death (bool)

What else ?

[crisp lily]

That's all I can think of at the moment. Besides loot drop, but you're working on that later.

[wooden copper]

Yeah I'll add loot drops

An array of strings I assume

[crisp lily]

You're cooking man. I'll update my registry once you have the new meta data in.

[wooden copper]

Yeah I'll try

[wooden copper]

I've seen new bugs related to my monsters but I don't know why they happen

[coarse sphinx]

is this mod stable

[sour wasp]

not yet for modded monsters at least

[worn grove]

Maybe im missing something obvious here, ive loaded the game up multiple times and have a config ingame (It has few settings), but they have no rank, cant be picked up or sold. And i have no Enemies.json in the folder specified. Am i blind?

[wooden copper]

Yeah it's probably because of the bug I mentioned higher in the channel, download LethalConfig and lethal settings and retry, ut should work

I'm working on a fix for that

[wooden copper]

Okay new update today normally

it should fix the issue with the dependencies

that's an annoying error, let me know if it occurs again

[wooden copper]

yeah so new config file is extremely dense but shouldn't be reinitialized anymore

I'll gave further details on the Loot Table and how to use it when I'll implement the loot mechanic

I'm too busy to find good default values for every single mob so I'll just leave it as is for now

I'll also add a setting for "position in hand"

[wooden copper]

Hotfix 1.1.3 deployed !

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/VELD/Enhanced_Monsters/
https://github.com/VELD-Dev/Enhanced-Monsters/releases/tag/1.1.3

[idle parrot]

wait, so masked drop player corpses

?

do they always drop corpses when killed, or do they only drop corpses when it's a converted player (putting on mask, being infected by a masked)

[wooden copper]

Not yet

[wooden copper]

Only when converted

[idle parrot]

ah

will they ever drop corpses always?

[wooden copper]

I could make them drop random corpses

[idle parrot]

yeessss

yeah like random corpses with random names

like how the radar boosters have random names

[wooden copper]

ohh

that's a sick idea actually

I could make a database of names of all the people here who contributed by reporting bugs, modders who used my mod to add their own stats to their mobs, and also people who helped me trying the mod and who helped me to make the mod

[idle parrot]

yeah i feel like

the names should be:
literally the radar booster names
what you just said
names of people on your friends list (discord and steam)
names of people on other people's friend lists (they can send you lists)

or jus a bunch of randomly thought up names

it would be so cool for masked to drop player corpses though, so if you kill a naturally spawning masked (and you have all the mods that make them talk, look like players, etc) then it would cause panic because you'd think it was your friend messing with you

[wooden copper]

I can easily synchronize these lists yep

[idle parrot]

thumbsYEAH

YESS

I'VE ALWAYS WANTED A MOD THAT MAKES MASKED DROP PLAYER CORPSES

[wooden copper]

yeah i get the idea

[wooden copper]

doesn't "TakeOffThatMask" do it ?

[idle parrot]

i think? but it only drops corpses when it's a converted masked

[wooden copper]

I see okkk

Anyways we'll see

it's not the current step of development

i'm trying to make enemy corpses work correctly actuall

Then I'll work on mobs loots, like Nutcracker and Masked dropping their masks

Then I'll work specifically on Masked improvements

Then I'll work on the Dungeon sound exchange

And finally I'll work on Dungeon Preview

[idle parrot]

i see

[grave stump]

and you could enable which you want to appear

[idle parrot]

☝️

[coarse sphinx]

modded enemys fixed?

[wooden copper]

I don't know lol

Maybe

[wooden copper]

Hmm I'll check

[wooden copper]

5k total downloads, hurray !

[coarse sphinx]

How is the ranking determined?

[wooden copper]

it's hardcoded values, they can be configured, but my personal ranking that I set as the default one is based on their individual dangerousness. I asked many people from the community what they thought about the rankings, then I took notes and modified accordingly, it resulted into the current ranks.

[coarse sphinx]

I cant pick up hoarding bugs

[wooden copper]

Hmm

works on my machine, can you show the logs ?

i hope it's not once more the config stuff

[coarse sphinx]

can you try my modpack code

[wooden copper]

if it is I'll really go crazy

[wooden copper]

I just need your logs

[coarse sphinx]

ok

[wooden copper]

Thanks, I'll look at it

[crisp lily]

Still getting the error without LethalConfig and LethalSettings.

Followed your instruction to turn animate on death off and tried setting the rotation in the meta data and am getting the error in the picture.

Here is a video of what happened when I killed the gargoyle that produced the error

And here is the code I am using to register the gargoyle

[coarse sphinx]

I cant even grab anything

[crisp lily]

From a quick look at your logs you probably have some incompatibilities somewhere. There's a lot of errors relating to enemy ai patches.

[coarse sphinx]

do you want my modpack code

but I tested in a empty profile and the same thing happened

[crisp lily]

Not sure there's anything more I would get from testing the modpack. VELD will have to dig in and figure out what's up.

I just tested as well with just the base mods and an added command mod for spawning enemies and am also running into not being able to grab. At least with the hoarding bug.

[coarse sphinx]

Oh ok so it was not just me

[crisp lily]

Here's another test with a vanilla spawned bunker spider

I also tried scanning them and there was no scan node.

[crisp lily]

Definitely something that needs to be fixed somewhere, but I'm sure VELD will get it taken care of.

[sour wasp]

The Code Rebirth Enemies and men-stalker are still broken from testing. They die, drop an invisible body, and then leave the real body uninteractable beside the ship

Aloe won't even drop a body, but I've been having issues with the aloe anyway

peepers work though

The musical ghosts and hitch bloodsworth still need to be tested i suppose

and i would test the sentinel but it's so out of date it's not really worth it imo

[coarse sphinx]

yeah but it breaks in a save with only the enhanced monsters mod

[sour wasp]

nah I was just talking about what modded monsters I've seen work or not

[wooden copper]

Nah I'm going crazy now

I'll work on yet another fix this evening

[wooden copper]

I never had this error. I'll loin at it the evening

Hmmm modding is really annoying sometimes

[wooden copper]

uhh I hate it, it's still because of the config mods

Shit

[outer hare]

oof

[outer hare]

Whatever it is, don't overexert yourself. It's better to take things easy and move forward step by step than to end up saturated and not want to work on it anymore.

[crisp lily]

No worries. Like Moroxide said, try not to stress too hard over it. You'll get it figured out eventually.

[wooden copper]

I think I'll just mark them as dependencies from now on thunderstore

[wooden copper]

I must deploy a patch anyway

[sour wasp]

okay so the 1.1.3 patch definitely broke some things because a lot of the enemies have weird textures now (spider has the arachnophobia mode texture overlapping it and maneater turns into a cube) and all monsters besides the thumper and bracken have an animation playing on loop while dead. Peepers, Water Wraith, & LethalMin are the only modded mods I've gotten to work before testing the hauntedharpist and hitchbloodsworth

disregard the cringey background music

[wooden copper]

hmmm interesting

that's... new...

I think I preferred invisible enemies

[sour wasp]

well the coderebirth/giant specimens enemies are still invisble

the men stalker too

[wooden copper]

Hmmm

These incoherent bugs are really starting to feed me up

I'll work on that later

[sour wasp]

yea man, truly sorry about it

[wooden copper]

not your fault

it's really the game's fault

[crisp lily]

Hey I cloned your repository, and found something that works for me. Let me know if this helps.

`private static void NetcodePatcher()
{
var pluginInfos = BepInEx.Bootstrap.Chainloader.PluginInfos;
bool isLethalConfigLoaded = pluginInfos.ContainsKey("ainavt.lc.lethalconfig");
bool isLethalSettingsLoaded = pluginInfos.ContainsKey("com.willis.lc.lethalsettings");

var types = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetLoadableTypes();
foreach (var type in types)
{

    if ((type.FullName.Contains("EnhancedMonsters.Config.LethalConfigSupport") && !isLethalConfigLoaded) || (type.FullName.Contains("EnhancedMonsters.Config.LethalSettingsSupport") && !isLethalSettingsLoaded))
    {
        continue;
    }
    var methods = type.GetMethods(BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Static);
    foreach (var method in methods)
    {
        var attributes = method.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(RuntimeInitializeOnLoadMethodAttribute), false);
        if (attributes.Length > 0)
        {
            method.Invoke(null, null);
        }
    }
}

}`

Essentially just stating if it's not loaded and the type name is blah then go on to the next one. This stopped the error for me.

I also noticed when just running your mod it wouldn't load because the Start method wasn't running. But when changing the Start method to OnEnable in the Plugin.cs it runs every time.

Hopefully this was helpful!

[wooden copper]

Thanks I'll try it out as well !

[wooden copper]

Good to know, and is the networking working afterwise ?

[crisp lily]

Afaik, yeah. It just skips those 2 if they aren't loaded. So all other networking is intact.

[crisp lily]

@wooden copper I was also doing some testing with this error. And it looks like it's EnemyGameObject that is null. I was able to fix it by changing EnemyGameObject to gameObject.

[wooden copper]

Hmm hold on

[crisp lily]

I guess I say "fix" loosely lol.

[wooden copper]

It's weird it cannot be null

It's defined on prefab creation

[crisp lily]

Could there be something missing from my enemy that would be causing that?

[crisp lily]

I see. So it's getting set with enemyScrap.EnemyGameObject = copy;

[crisp lily]

Is it because my mod is registering after the prefabs are created?

[wooden copper]

yes

[wooden copper]

OH

That must be it !

Yeah normally, I'm registering stuff on startup but I was meant to make it re-register them also on game start

[crisp lily]

That makes sense. Woo!

Hmmm... So I moved the "EnsureEnemy2PropPrefabs" to "StartHost" in the GameNetworkManager patching so I could test it, and it's still null xD. It's definitely re registering it AFTER my mod is loaded.

That's weird that it would be null.

So there's the LethalGargoyleObj propized. Which I assume is the original prefab you create. This has the EnemyGameObject set.

Then there's the clone that spawns on death. This has EnemyGameObject null.

[wooden copper]

It's not what I planned to do, no worries I'll do it the intended way 👍

[crisp lily]

I figured. I was just testing it.

[wooden copper]

In fact it's inside "PlayerControllerB" connect that it should try to re-register those

[crisp lily]

That makes sense.

[wooden copper]

Guyss

before i publish the patch for all that, mostly written by DropDaDeuce in the end, I must announce you that I have possibly fixed the mob scraps not saving when leaving

(my bad)

(i forgot to set a boolean to true)

[wooden copper]

Released Hotfix 1.1.4

https://github.com/VELD-Dev/Enhanced-Monsters/releases/tag/1.1.4
https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/VELD/Enhanced_Monsters/

[crisp lily]

Unfortunately I am still getting a null value with the latest release. The EnemyGameObject is still null in the clone of the prefab.

But when I look at the original prefab you create it shows a value. So when the prefab is cloned, it's losing this value it looks like.

[sour wasp]

still getting the errors listed here

[Error : Unity Log] NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Stack trace:
PlayerPhysicsRegion.Update () (at <bdf6a080e98a49fd84b92b24894f768c>:IL_000C)

this message too ^^

[crisp lily]

The config issue have definitely been fixed though. So thank you for that!

[wooden copper]

The mobs having bad animations ?

well yeah it's the only fix I found to mobs not being visible at all lol

[wooden copper]

This has nothing to do with Enhanced Monsters, I don't know why all of those appear though

Can someone tell me if scraps save ?

I forgot to add that to the changelogs

but I'm not sure if it works so I'll only add it to the next Changelog

[crisp lily]

Doesn't look to be. But might be caused by the error I was showing above?

[wooden copper]

hmm... but it should be dead--

yeah

So it's still not working but now there should be an error

[crisp lily]

The only error I got was for the EnemyGameObject being null

[wooden copper]

Hmm

That's annoying

I'll dive into that later in the week

I got many exams this week so I'll wait to be less submerged

[crisp lily]

Haha, no worries.

[sour wasp]

nono, I mean the mobs still animating when they're dead with all the animations off, the maneater turning into a cube, and the spider overlapping with its arachnophobia mode texture

and the coderebirth/giantspecimens/men stalker enemies still being invisible with their real bodies levitating next to the ship

[crisp lily]

This one is most likely due to the error him and I were talking about. Should be fixed once he gets some time to work on it.

[sour wasp]

which part the texture overlap, the levitating phantom bodies, or the animation weirdness? Because not to be rude, but like I brought this stuff up yesterday and feels like it was brushed aside

also the playerphysics error only happens with this mod

[crisp lily]

So when the enemy dies it tries to replace it with the prefab he made, but a needed GameObject ends up being null for some reason, so it errors out before it can disable the animator. I don't know all of what that affects and what will be fixed when he fixes it.

I'm not officially a developer for this mod, and don't fully know the inner workings of the code. So I'm kinda making educated guesses and could be wrong. I've just been trying to help him find the bugs as best I can.

[sour wasp]

gotcha gotcha, I get it mod dev is no easy feat I'm working on one as well, it's just frustrating when it's the same errors consistently I suppose

[crisp lily]

Yeah, no worries. I can also understand your frustration. Hopefully once his exams are over, he can put some more focus on this 🤞🏻

[wooden copper]

I'll check that later

[grave stump]

https://medal.tv/games/lethal-company/clips/jy9DwKzQvAQWUy2wp?invite=cr-MSxObjYsMTc4ODI2MDc0LA

reporting this here, since the moment i disabled this mod, it stopped with this weird bug

[wooden copper]

wtf lmao what's going on with the helmet

I don't have any idea of how it could be related, from far or close, to Enhanced Monsters to be honest

[wooden copper]

that's the first time I see that, it could be related to a skin replacement mod or a 3rd person mod, but I have NO idea why my mod would affect that

[grave stump]

me neither?

i just disabled your mod and it stopped lol

also reenabled to make sure, still happens for some dumb reason

[wooden copper]

I'll look this up this weekend

[wooden copper]

2k individual downloads 🎉

almost 10k downloads 😮

[coarse sphinx]

Is the mod fixed now?

[wooden copper]

Partially, but it should work now yeah

Some mobs are still transparent after their death

But the mod loads now

[coarse sphinx]

So the monsters don’t move when dead and the icon for it is fixed?

[wooden copper]

Most of the monsters don't move yeah

Maybe some of them will keep moving but normalyl they don't move

but the icon is not fixed

It's really the last of my problems

It even a non-problem

[thick belfry]

by chance you using ModelReplacementAPI? That's what causes this issue for me so enhancedmonsters might be incompatible with it.

[grave stump]

turns out i actually do lmfao

good to know

[thick belfry]

Also seems like Enhanced Monsters prevents me from using TooManyEmotes so is another mod that's not compatible maybe?

[wooden copper]

I'll have to figure out why it's incompatible... Hmm at first glance it should only make the monsters incompatible eventually and still

[wooden copper]

That's not possible. I use too many emotes in my modpack and it works

[thick belfry]

My bad, was not TooManyEmotes, there's a mod I've got currently installed that prevents me from using most keys while using Enhanced Monsters.
I thought it was TooManyEmotes since it prevents me from opening that menu, but the reality is that I'm unable to do most things, not even the Esc menu, trying to figure out what could it be.

this is what am getting in my logs

[wooden copper]

that's weird, my mod doesn't even use keybindings

[wooden copper]

oh I understood

alright

I'm using System.Vector3

[long tangle]

So a couple of my friends and I just picked up Lethal again and installed enhanced monsters. When we kill things, only the small bird creatures at the moment of writing this, it seems to drop the normal body from the stock game and we are unable to pick it up. We have the dependencies and made sure everything was updated, not to sure what is going on.

Edit: I have the same issue with the baboon hawks.

Modlist is: 0194a3c1-ae45-4146-cd8d-8f605136aa5d

[wooden copper]

10k downloads, 3.1k individual downloads, hurray !

[wooden copper]

Hmm...
Can you send me the logs ?

unable to pick it up sounds weird

[long tangle]

Where would I find that?

[wooden copper]

there was no issue related to that anymore normally

[wooden copper]

are you using R2ModMan ?

[wooden copper]

you install the mods manually ?

[long tangle]

We downloaded through thunderstore itself.

[wooden copper]

okay so you installed the mods manually ?

you didn't use R2ModMan to install them ?

[long tangle]

Yes

[wooden copper]

then go to /BepInEx/LogOutput.log

[wooden copper]

Thanks

[wooden copper]

Yeah so I have figured out why enemies are still animated

I'm fixing something

and we'll see

I've fixed dead enemies already

Interesting, corpses aren't detected as collected scraps

[long tangle]

Well that's inconvenient.

[wooden copper]

Yeah, it basically causes that corpses aren't saved after leaving the game

Despite I've set "saveItemVariables" to true

[long tangle]

So, basically, the game is being super weird.

[wooden copper]

the game is boycotting my mod >:(

[long tangle]

It's because it's just that good.

Hotfix 1.1.5

(but I should probably call that a "Coldfix" now that the version is 10 days old)
https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/VELD/Enhanced_Monsters/
https://github.com/VELD-Dev/Enhanced-Monsters/releases/tag/1.1.5

[sour wasp]

Hey Veld, thanks man. For me at least the modded monsters are working now except for the ones by Xu which I'll chalk down to a pure incompatibility somewhere in that code. But really excellent mod and am happy it finally works

Obviously they're still counting as monsters instead of scrap but that's a minor issue imo for now

[wooden copper]

I'm glad it finally works correctly 🙏

[wooden copper]

So for Xu's monsters, did you set them to pickupable in the config ?

[sour wasp]

I did indeed and it's only the one's from coderebirth and giantspecimens I've had issues with so I assume it's something with their code and would assume eeveefrenzy, johnpaularatus, and pjonkgoose would have the same issues but I haven't tested those ones

Because Peepers, Pikmin, and the Water wraith work

[wooden copper]

Did they display a rank ?

[sour wasp]

yerp

lemme show you rq

[wooden copper]

Excellent, so their prefab is actually created. Their hitbox is really small though so it can be quite hard to grab large entities

[sour wasp]

Also it spams this error everytime it happens

[wooden copper]

Yeah for that I really don't know, I didn't touch this class

[sour wasp]

only happens with the coderebrith and giantspecimens enemies like I mentioned so I assume it's just an incompatibility

[wooden copper]

I'm currently working on the enemy scraps saving, it should come in the next patch or hotfix, depends on what I do with that

[wooden copper]

I'll troubleshoot by myself someday

[sour wasp]

probably should make a note in the readme that the dead enemies currently move unless animations are off but I assume that's from them registering as entities instead of scrap

[wooden copper]

We'll see for that

[sour wasp]

@wooden copper so in the vid it shows all the scan nodes and ranks working for each monster but it also shows the manticoil is invisible, spider is still overlapping with arachnophobia mode, maneater still turns into a cube, all the xu monsters (code rebirth, giant specimens, eevee frenzy, pjonk, & johnpaularatus spawn invisible items with the real object levitating outside the ship), same issue occurs for the menstalker, & the musical ghosts are just floating eyes. Everything not mentioned that can traditonally be killed/is showcased in the video works

[outer hare]

Hello!
Small issue.
It seems that the body of the monster persists between landings

[outer hare]

spider?

spider is invisible when a friend has it

[wooden copper]

That's what I feared

Must find a fix for that

[sour wasp]

did you watch the videos I sent showcasing all the monsters that work and the ones that don't of the ones that usually can be killed?

[wooden copper]

The old one ?

[sour wasp]

These

[wooden copper]

Not yet

I'm at school for now

[wooden copper]

I might be working again on my ContentWarning mod soon, I'll try to fix what I can for Enhanced Monsters but I can't promise I'll fix everything, some of the bugs rely on randomness and other mods

I'll try to fix saving in first place

[wooden copper]

Is there an artist out there that would be okay to make an icon for dead enemies in the inventory ?

[wooden copper]

Dead enemies are now saving ! There seems to be a bug still though, but I'll need people to try and report me this error. Try saving with a corpse in the ship, disconnect, reconnect, then disconnect again and reconnect. If it disappeared I'll inspect, otherwise we're good.
I also need someone to try on their side if when disconnecting and CLOSING THE GAME, then reopening the game, if the corpse is appearing or not

And retry all that with Save Item Fix enabled and disabled in LethalLib settings

[wooden copper]

Patch 1.2.0 - The Saviour Update !

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/VELD/Enhanced_Monsters/
https://github.com/VELD-Dev/Enhanced-Monsters/releases/tag/1.2.0

[coarse sphinx]

Is the crap icon fixed?

[wooden copper]

nope, but I made an open request for an icon

I'd like a custom icon for them

[coarse sphinx]

cant you just use runtime icons though

[wooden copper]

But honestly if the scrap icon is your only concern, then it means the mod is already in stable state

[wooden copper]

yeah but I don't want, plus it's a little complicated and I don't really like doing weird reflection that could break on any update

[coarse sphinx]

The hand is in the wrong place when picking up some monsters

[wooden copper]

Yeah not gonna lie I'm not going to fix that

[wooden copper]

I'm still open if anyone wants to make an icon for enemy scraps in the inventory 😄

It may also act as mod icon eventually ? I'm not sure if I want to keep the current mod icon

Hmm.. Maybe I should make the mod icon the Trident I always use

The twemoji trident is so freaking beautiful

🔱

it doesn't look like a trident

[coarse sphinx]

Is there a way to make it a gear icon for now

[wooden copper]

uhhh

[round turret]

Might want to make a post over in #1210315682613436446

[wooden copper]

i'll be honest i could just extract the existing one and bundle it and just replace it with the new icon that will be made by an artist later but idk

[wooden copper]

true

[coarse sphinx]

?

The gear icon that scrap normally has

[wooden copper]

yeah i understood

And I answered

[wooden copper]

I'd like to ping but you get the idea

[opal tundra]

I feel like getting a shotgun is a must

You are risking your life the most trying to take one down

[wooden copper]

Yeah but the price of a nutcracker is actually high imo

Just for information, loots will be configurable

[rigid berry]

Every time I try opening this mod, everything works except for the fact that I can't pick up enemy bodies. Do I need to do something else to make it work?

[wooden copper]

Which enemies ?

Can you send the mod list btw ?

[rigid berry]

I never really tested it too thoroughly, but I know for sure that I can't pick up snare felas, hoarding bugs or thumpers

[wooden copper]

Oh shit is it because I made changes on the soft dependencies...

[wooden copper]

The dead ones ?

Can you send your logs real quick ?

[rigid berry]

I don't think so, I've been following this mod for a while and I've never gotten it to work

[wooden copper]

And your mod list

[rigid berry]

Yeah, one second

[rigid berry]

And yes

[wooden copper]

Can you download v1.1.4 and tell me if it works ?

Now I'll try downloading 1.1.4 with nothing else

[wooden copper]

I see

[wooden copper]

Oh shit here we go again

Yeah try using v1.1.4

[rigid berry]

Currently waiting to find something on assurance

Yup, still can’t pick it up

Killed a hoarding bug

[wooden copper]

1.1.4 ?

[rigid berry]

Yup

[wooden copper]

Hmmm

[rigid berry]

Maybe I'm missing something? It's supposed to give a prompt to use E to pick it up, just like any other item, right?

[wooden copper]

Well as a workaround you can download LethalConfig

[wooden copper]

Yes but there's an issue currently

[rigid berry]

Coulda sworn I already tried using config in the past, but again, maybe I missed something

I'll try that now

Ah, yes, that’s right. I have no idea how to use it, that’s what it was

[wooden copper]

Well retry with 1.1.5, with and without LethalConfig please, I can't test my mod without the config mod as I need them to compile the mod

[rigid berry]

Alrighty

Just tested both with and without, neither work

[wooden copper]

Hmm that's annoying

I know how to fix it but I'm annoyed

[wooden copper]

Alright

I made a fix that actually works

👍

I could also make an IgnoreNetcode attribute in facts

Hotfix 1.2.1

https://github.com/VELD-Dev/Enhanced-Monsters/releases/tag/1.2.1
https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/VELD/Enhanced_Monsters/

@rigid berry Can you tell me if it works on your side ? it does on mine

(without Lethal Config and without Lethal Settings)

[rigid berry]

Will report back in a few minutes

Ok it seems I have to wait a bit for thunderstore to recognize the 1.2.1 update, I’ll report back whenever it gets there

[wooden copper]

I'd recommend downloading through GitHub if you really want to try it right now

[rigid berry]

Yeah I don’t know how to use GitHub

[wooden copper]

Okay then just wait for it to release on thunderstore xd

For 1.3.0, mobs will finally have a standard icon. Until an artist answers to my request, I'll use the vanilla icon

Nobody actually looks inside #1210315682613436446

But for now, I'm working above all on twohanded stuff, because it is indeed not working correctly when dropping the scrap

[wooden copper]

Alright so I'll allow loots + mob corpse, but I will reduce the mobs with vanilla loot like the Butler and Nutcracker

[wooden copper]

@outer hare do you think you can find or make a sound for enemy body drop or equip ? If I understand correctly, you worked on the sound mod Lethal Resonance with PixelatedPulse ?

I'm trying to make it a little fancy now :p

[wooden copper]

I've got a new feature idea

let me explain, the mod will have one default sound default for bodies that will be created hopefully by Moroxide if he's okay, otherwise i'll take a random sound from the game, but you will be able to put custom sounds inside BepInEx/config/EnhancedMonsters/CustomSFX/ (.mp3 or .ogg formats, I don't know yet) and you'll have to enter their name (without extension) inside the Metadata. For example:
I've added custom sound: BepInEx/config/EnhancedMonsters/CustomSFX/hoarding_bug_grab.mp3
-> I'll have to go inside the config BepInEx/config/EnhancedMonsters/EnemiesData.json, go to Hoarding bug and set "GrabSFX": "hoarding_bug_grab"
-> If I want to reset it, I set the field to "GrabSFX": null or "GrabSFX": "default"

[outer hare]

Sure, I can make a body drop sound

[wooden copper]

Thank you very much !

[outer hare]

I'll try making a general one, I mean, one for all the drops

[wooden copper]

yep please

Other people will be able to make sound packs later anyway

[wooden copper]

Thank you very much!

[velvet turret]

oh this is interesting, and completely flew under the radar for me. just looks like sellbodies but actually good. does it fuck up monster death anims like sellbodies though"?

[wooden copper]

I've listened to it, it sounds really great !

[wooden copper]

It actually plays the death anims for some of them

I'm trying to make it compatible with as many death anims as possible but this game is really programmed... Weirdly

[velvet turret]

thank god

its immersion breaking to have them just immediately become dead bodies

i dont really mind that though, i mostly had an issue with the mod because nutcrackers never dropped shotguns so i couldnt use their corpses

it says its a configurable chance to drop it here.. but i cant find the config for it anywhere in the files

[wooden copper]

Yeah drops aren't implemented yet but I'm working on it

I'm currently polishing the dead bodies

[velvet turret]

sounds good to me

[wooden copper]

Do you have LethalConfig or LethalSettings ? I made a button that copies the path to the clipboard

The entire config file is synced between clients

[velvet turret]

i have lethalconfig

[wooden copper]

But you can chose wether to synchronize ranks or not

[velvet turret]

i checked the enemies config file and saw nothing there, is it there or am i just blind

[wooden copper]

Wait it's empty ?

The file is empty ?

[velvet turret]

no i meant nutcracker shotgun chance isnt there

my bad

i just glimpsed over it though so its probably on me..

[wooden copper]

Yeah as I said, mob loots aren't implemented yet

But I'll be working ok that very soon

[velvet turret]

aight

[wooden copper]

As I'm only polishing the mob scraps currently, expect to see it in maybe a week, two at most

[velvet turret]

alright, thanks for clarification

[wooden copper]

No problem

[outer hare]

do you have any plans to fix the monster possition when it's being picked up?

[wooden copper]

It can be fixed by users

It's inside the configs

[outer hare]

oh, gotcha

let me check it

[wooden copper]

It's inside the metadata

I must update the config documentation

[outer hare]

The creatures are killable and grabbable in the devmode map?

[wooden copper]

Yeah cus it's quite tedious to do it for each monster

[wooden copper]

Yeah this is fixed too

[outer hare]

let me check if I can do it

[wooden copper]

The issue was due to the old way of generating the enemies

[outer hare]

gotcha

I'll try killing them with a shotgun

[outer hare]

I think these are issues from the devmode map.
I killed a hoarding bug in there

I grabbed it, but after dropping it, it dissapeared

[wooden copper]

Ow

Yeah that must be an issue with the devmode map somehow

Don't understand why it happens

Can you try on a normal map please ?

[velvet turret]

i was not expecting that lmao

[wooden copper]

Lmao

Ah shit skins don't work

I'll really have to work on that too

[outer hare]

I'm not gonna lie.
I LOVE the antenae physics

[wooden copper]

And for death anim yeah not gonna lie it's very very "case by case"

[wooden copper]

That's the advantage of using the very model the game has instead of making copies of them as dead

But it has cost performance wise

[outer hare]

also, The item has not dissapeared.
When it drops instead of going down, it goes up lol

[velvet turret]

same thing but at a better angle

[wooden copper]

Hmm wtf

[wooden copper]

I mean, at least it is killable... Lmao yeah I'll work on that, their death position is configurable (in degrees) in the config file

[velvet turret]

it would probably be even funnier if i made them lie face first when dead

[wooden copper]

Face on the ground ?

[velvet turret]

yea

[wooden copper]

Yeah true lol

[outer hare]

the spider body still floats and after being grabbed it has the "arachnophobia" model

[velvet turret]

ill try it actually and see what happens

[wooden copper]

You can do that in the config, I haven't really tried to do that yet but yeah

[wooden copper]

Oh yeah, once again it's very case by case and that's a little annoying

[outer hare]

where's the metadata?

[wooden copper]

I must remove the arachnophobia model for people who disabled it and remove the spider model for people who enabled it

[velvet turret]

would x or z rotation be the one to flip them on their face

[wooden copper]

It's called Bunker Spider iirc but you can't fix that in the configs sadly

[outer hare]

btw, I can't find the LethalSettings config of this mod

[wooden copper]

Oh and to localize the data file, you can use any config mod and copy the path to the configs

[wooden copper]

Another bug with the config ?

[outer hare]

In case there's supposed to be

I'm not sure lol

[wooden copper]

Hum... Well uh...

[velvet turret]

thats strange cause i got it

[wooden copper]

Can you try with LethalConfig and tell me ? xd

For me LethalSettings works but I have both LC and LS

[outer hare]

let me enable that

this is the config that I see on the cfg

[velvet turret]

oops wrong rotatiopn

[wooden copper]

Yeah the path is only visible in the config mods, I have added a button to the configs

[wooden copper]

Honestly the best to use the right values is to modify it with UnityExplorer in the runtime but for standard users who don't mess too much with that well... It can be very tedious lol good luck 🤞

Cool to see it works !

[velvet turret]

thankfully it works

[wooden copper]

To be very honest I didn't try the feature, I'm glad to see it works first try lol

My goal is maybe not to replace SellBodies but to make something that's more reliable than SellBodies for modded monsters

[velvet turret]

i bet it will be a good replacement once its finished though

since unlike sellbodies it has death anims (sometimes)

uhhh

[wooden copper]

Yeah to be honest, I'm not sure I'll be able to smoothly support modded mobs death anims if they don't all use a standard animator config lol

[wooden copper]

Woah

[velvet turret]

at least there was an effort

[wooden copper]

It... Disappeared

[velvet turret]

the snare flea wanted to show magic tricks

[wooden copper]

Never saw that

Lmao fr

Yeah I'll inspect that as well, I wonder if it doesn't have something to do with the settings

Like they have weird position shit

[velvet turret]

i can check every monster corpse

[wooden copper]

I can't ask you to do that, there's too many of them lol

[velvet turret]

its just the vanilla killable entities that im checking, so i can just summon them all with imperium and kill them

i already know that nutcracker and thumper seemingly work fine

[wooden copper]

Ah true true

[velvet turret]

interesting how puffers have values even though im p sure they're unkillable

[wooden copper]

Thumper works for sure, it's one of the monsters with the hoarding bug whose I specifically try With

[wooden copper]

I think remembering it was killable

[velvet turret]

doesnt matter very much regardless, if someone makes a killable puffer mod in the future it will probably work if they dont use some weird anim shit like u said

.. i would test it if r2modman wasnt so dogshit

i wish i could use gale but it just straight up doesnt work on my pc

[wooden copper]

Lemme check on the wiki, I really thought the puffer was killable

Ah yeah it's invincible

Well I see I see

I thought it was killable because it's very neutral and easy to approach and all

[velvet turret]

it would be funny to see what would happen if i made tree giant bodys pickupable

[wooden copper]

Yeah somehow forest giants have weird shit happening

[velvet turret]

baboon hawks are fine

[outer hare]

Puffers are not killable

[wooden copper]

Not really sure but apparently it happened that they didn't have ranks and didn't have scrap bodies

[velvet turret]

dogs work ok

[wooden copper]

Nice

[velvet turret]

butlers say they have a corpse but i dont seem to be able to pick itu o

[wooden copper]

That might be an issue with my config

The pickup trigger is on their feet

Or around there

[velvet turret]

cant seem to get it to work

[wooden copper]

Hmm...

[velvet turret]

could perfectly well be my fault and i didnt tweak something properly.

[outer hare]

maneater cube

[velvet turret]

brackens work fine as well

same jank as nuts tho
