Vacuity terrain

😭

I need a new moon name idea

[brisk kayak]

what type of moon?

[midnight sierra]

Idk for now tbh

I need at least placeholder name

I'll name it "melvin' for now

[brisk kayak]

you should do a snowy or an icy moon even 😛

[midnight sierra]

u sure?

Crythesia Moon

[stiff helm]

You should make a swamp!

[midnight sierra]

really, but after this moon (maybe)

[stiff helm]

nicee

[midnight sierra]

people who vote for melvin

their name is melvin now

[brisk kayak]

melvin? I was melvin once

[midnight sierra]

https://tenor.com/view/melvin-cat-gif-25893655

wait did you guys see the melvin in da Vacuity?

[brisk kayak]

is he scannable?

[midnight sierra]

no

[brisk kayak]

oof ._.

[midnight sierra]

employee screen

[brisk kayak]

oh yeah that makes sense ig lol

[midnight sierra]

you should play vac

and watch all the cutscenes

there's 6-7 cutscenes in total

[brisk kayak]

yeah I should play the game more lol

I have vac in my "testSess" profile but I've been busy with my latest update for Seichi and also for a couple of more moons that are still in WIP

[midnight sierra]

@midnight sierra Will you make a pack like the Wesley Moons with all your Moons?

[midnight sierra]

Might be

[jade raven]

Thanks bro

[ember wren]

[rocky lagoon]

Funni Idea For This

[midnight sierra]

Uh so

On which type of moon you guys want to see the bus?

[rose barn]

Do your moons have cutscenes?

[stiff helm]

Vacuity does, yeah

Synthesis has some events too, like a falling tree

[rose barn]

That’s pretty neat

[midnight sierra]

You haven't see the guy?

at the top of a entrance building

[midnight sierra]

Is it me or your link in bio doesn't work?

[rose barn]

It doesn't?

odd

[midnight sierra]

I don't have a day to wait for this vote lol

So you guys have to chose quickly

and wisely

Vacuity current state lol

[stiff helm]

oh what, no I haven't

[midnight sierra]

Swamp or Snowy?

[still hearth]

Snow

But not blizzard

[midnight sierra]

I want blizzard

If it is going to be snowy moon

[still hearth]

Bro no please

[midnight sierra]

.

I mean not blizzard but uh

Something like windy thing, no idea

[still hearth]

Do blizzard and these images will fade into memory
A great snowy scenery is way better as a modded moon imo

But of course gameplay > all

[midnight sierra]

Yup

To play this moon you have to own cruiser

or at least use bus

[still hearth]

Wait which one?

[midnight sierra]

This one

The new one

[still hearth]

Oh

To be fair I don't really like cruiser specific moons for multiple simple reasons
It's unplayable (or hard to play) if you don't have the cruiser
The design is generally flat and thus not really interesting

This is why I love synthesis so much, besides the cool entrance you have a forest with multiples elevation changes and some holes that allows some direction choices (to avoid enemies for example)
The cruiser is of course usable on this moon if you go to the fire but not mandatory

[midnight sierra]

But you'll definitely the new one

One word and it's

"bus"

I worked on it very hard 😭

Back then I made my own game with smart AI vehicles

Now using my smol brain, and my knowledge I want to replicate it

in LC

[still hearth]

Did I misunderstood something then? What do you mean by bus

[midnight sierra]

.

[midnight sierra]

.

I mean that If you don't have a cruiser or if you have one and don't want to use it, you can use 🚌

[still hearth]

Ohh

[midnight sierra]

Which is complete random

like it was made by Zeeky

[still hearth]

I thought this was a decoration bruh

[midnight sierra]

No, it's fully functional AI vehicle that in some parts might be stupid

[still hearth]

Interessting
But is the moon flat?

[midnight sierra]

No

I want to make terrain very "funny" and interesting

[still hearth]

Seems good then

Sorry to have accused the moon that early
I'm just tired of cruiser specific moons

I'm looking to it now

[midnight sierra]

I chose "snowy moon".
People who picked "swamp", I'm sorry.

[midnight sierra]

Honestly, I never saw a cruiser based moon 🤷‍♂️

[stiff helm]

will it spawn on the moon?

that sounds kinda fun

[midnight sierra]

Yeah

[stiff helm]

yess

[stiff helm]

I really like that idea! circumvents all the issues I have with cruiser moons

[midnight sierra]

[stiff helm]

awww Swamp racing would've been fun lmao

I like the idea still

[midnight sierra]

Ik

[still hearth]

Good for you lmao
Generally, it's a random building on a massive moon terrain with a flat road that leads towards it

[midnight sierra]

Lol

[full orchid]

Yeah most cruiser-based moons are usually pretty, simple, and way too big

Some of the better Cruiser-based moons tbh are Stein's Zeimalt and PowerFull's Scallg

These two have roads of some sort that wind and take to different portions of the facility

[wheat prism]

Pinnacle is one of thr best cruiser maps imo

[full orchid]

Pinnacle last I remember is just, way too big

[wheat prism]

Very big but it at least has a more challenging geometry than the average cruiser map

[arctic comet]

Vacuity is incompadible with lethalMon:

[midnight sierra]

I don't even know what mod is this

[arctic comet]

https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1253321657297408052hmm

but it seems that is merely a part of the issue

[midnight sierra]

I mean

Idk why

and I won't do any major changes to make it work

[arctic comet]

hmm i am testing right now and it seems like its actually a combination of mods. LethalMon + something + Vacuity = this issue

because on a new profile with only LethalMon + Vacuity everything works 🤔

[midnight sierra]

https://tenor.com/view/benjammins-idgaf-idc-i-dont-care-not-my-problem-gif-5155828854196954648

Really, I have nothing to do with that mod 🤷‍♂️

[midnight sierra]

Too late

[round flower]

this is like russia

[midnight sierra]

Why tho?

I wasn't in Russia so idk

[arctic comet]

oookay, found the mod combination:

LethalMon + HeavyItemSCPs + Vacuity = this bug

[midnight sierra]

[arctic comet]

right, forgot to remove cullfactory and performace, here's the new code:

The bus is working at least

But it has so stupid pathfinding system lol

[midnight sierra]

yum

[midnight sierra]

ananas

[midnight sierra]

I think I have to make a Vacuity trailer

for #mod-showcase

[analog bridge]

get one of those Zeekerss level promo videos going

[midnight sierra]

hmm?

[low rivet]

I got this error while playing Synthesis:

[03:45:07.9991270] [Debug  :ApparatusFix] DiscardItemClientRpc Apparatus

Could this be a conflict with ApparatusFix?

[stiff helm]

ooo would be sick

[midnight sierra]

That’s my error and well

just ignore it

[low rivet]

uhh

[low rivet]

the little shack on Synthesis can be used to cheese the shy guy. Is this a problem with the door being too small or the shy guy having too large a collider?

[midnight sierra]

I don’t play with shy guy so idk

Maybe both

[full orchid]

Curious, is that problem also present on Adamance & Rend? (Those are the vanilla places where that shack asset appears in)

Could also check Vacuity and see if it makes it through the doorway for the building that leads to main

I'm suspecting it's the Shy Guy's collider being too large to fit through those doorways

[midnight sierra]

[low rivet]

oh sorry I missed your message. I'll test it later, thanks for the pointer!

[midnight sierra]

Should I update Vacuity?

WAIT there's a people that think Vacuity isn't made by me? 😭

[round flower]

zeekerss released old lethal company versions for patreons. check it out

[midnight sierra]

Let me see

I have no subscription 🤦‍♂️

[round flower]

oh ok lol

[midnight sierra]

You mean like uh

build?

[round flower]

yes. the alpha branch

you get the password from the patreon channel in his discord server

What do you guys think about this?

for like 2-3 cutscenes

it would be cool

[midnight sierra]

https://tenor.com/view/so-true-gif-24068595

[errant bluff]

it would be nice

It might drop tomorrow or today

But the trailer is later

Or someone could do it for me after the update

[stiff helm]

I think it's fine as it is, I played it recently and I really love it

though giving it a chance to be a snowy desert as opposed to a normal one would be neat

[midnight sierra]

I mean it's done

[stiff helm]

oh god AMN

[midnight sierra]

but my script doesn't work so I have to fix it and upload tomorrow

[stiff helm]

super cool

[analog bridge]

a tundra desert!?

wait thas Vacuity

however... not a bad idea

[fallow drum]

I really like this update

I still dunno how I feel about the npc's though

They feel too uncanny to me in some ways and detract a bit too much fom Vanilla

I would prefer they have a config to disable them

[analog bridge]

it's a unique touch; something to say, "hey, this is an ORC moon"

[fallow drum]

ORC?

[analog bridge]

Obscura Research Collective

[fallow drum]

Fair

I just think it takes away from immersion and vanilla friendly-ness as much as I like them

[analog bridge]

i wont deny it being unexpected, but i appreciate the intended angle

[stiff helm]

yeah it's super cool

the cutscenes are super well made

and I like seeing human beings other than the players even if it's only for a little bit}

receptionist is bae, love that dude

[stiff helm]

https://tenor.com/view/hunter-gif-17225837724146308966

Wonderful work

[full orchid]

Ye it's simple but I think defo gives a bit more variety than the 10000th moon with an abandoned/unknown/smth population for xyz reason

[stiff helm]

there is one, isn't there?

[midnight sierra]

To disable what?

If you mean the cutscenes then set it to second cutscene where yellow guy is ||dead||

[stiff helm]

Will this be one of the "cutscenes" by the way? How will it work? Just random chance?

[willow verge]

can you make it so i can kill the silly employee guy

[full orchid]

About that...
||They get killed on their own via the cutscene sequence||

[willow verge]

yeah but like

i wanna do it

[errant bluff]

[midnight sierra]

Why?

I mean, I could do it 🤔

[olive galleon]

its not vaciuty without the npcs, there needed

[round flower]

"vanilla friendly" is a very stupid term. if someone made a vehicle mod before the zeekerss added the cruiser, people wouldn't say it's vanilla friendly. if it was made after v55, it would be inversed. its just so biased.

i would say the only "vanilla friendly" things would be the stuff zeekerss actually put into the game

[shy drift]

I feel like it more means that it doesn’t clash with Zeekerss’ style

[round flower]

his style is whatever's on his mind

[shy drift]

Like if you went to someone and said “Hey this is the new Lethal update” they could believe you

Take Kast compared to a moon like Bozoros

Both good moons

[round flower]

idk what im saying anymore

[shy drift]

I know what you mean

[midnight sierra]

My moons isn't Vanilla friendly but in a Vanilla style

with that I mean only Synthesis

becasue Vacuity is different type of moon

[shy drift]

Yeah in my modpack I’m working on I have Synthesis but not Vacuity

Got Synthesis as a hidden moon

[round flower]

would obunga be vanilla style? since he's in the game? i dont even know

[midnight sierra]

Why tho?

[round flower]

https://tenor.com/view/obunga-gif-26632522

[midnight sierra]

shit's scary

[shy drift]

The “gimmick” of the pack is that it’s meant to feel like an official overhaul/expansion update to the game, so I’m being pretty strict with my inclusions

And Vacuity’s cutscenes, while SO cool, don’t fit as well

[midnight sierra]

But the "cutscenes" don't change the gameplay

[shy drift]

I might end up adding it in at some point though

[round flower]

to me, the cutscenes fit

[midnight sierra]

Also winter season is working and it's sooo cool

[shy drift]

Yes I’m just being very strict with the pack. I might not even be including SDM because it references Touhou

[midnight sierra]

What is SDM and Touhou?

[shy drift]

Scarlet Devil Mansion, the interior

[midnight sierra]

Idk about that one

[shy drift]

It’s a reference to a series named Touhou

Ah it’s one of the most popular ones

[midnight sierra]

I don't play the game like before so idk about anything happening rn

[shy drift]

oh that was like one of the first interiors to release lol

[midnight sierra]

👍

About the update for Vacuity

It'll come out today and uhh

[shy drift]

January 2024

[midnight sierra]

I think I'll do a teaser video alsoo

[shy drift]

Sweeeet

[midnight sierra]

The animated one!!!

Not in game footage

Just a 5 sec video

[shy drift]

Trust me your content is great man, I’m just being really strict to keep to the theme I have going.

[midnight sierra]

Ok

[shy drift]

Like my other modpack I have out right now doesn’t even include mods I use every time I play

I actually have a separate mod profile that has the pack plus a few mods I never play without lol

Hold to Scan and AccurateStaminaDisplay are the main two

[analog bridge]

interactive chat system to communicate with them. they dont understand anything you say, but if you type "melon", they pull a shotgun on you

[midnight sierra]

Actually I wanted to do complex dialogue system for these npcs

https://tenor.com/view/captain-america-i-understand-i-got-it-i-know-gif-22069086

quite the trip, really

Vacuity 1.0.3 - Major Update

Link: https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/luakite/Vacuity_Moon/

Synthesis 1.1.1 - Update

I just updated Readme.md to promote Vacuity :))

Link: https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/luakite/Synthesis_Moon/

If you want to look at the Teaser Video
-> #mod-showcase message

[rose barn]

Nice teaser!

[midnight sierra]

Thanks

[waxen iron]

is there any chance we could get an option to disable the custom dropship on synthesis ?

[stiff helm]

kind of hard agree on this

[stiff helm]

yeah cuz if you look at like the butler and then the eyeless dog they're not really stylistically consistent at all lol

the butler has locker-tier textures

[waxen iron]

there's definitely a degree of artstyle consistency but people throw the term around in any context and it loses all meaning

[willow verge]

whats vanilla friendly and whats not is entirely subjective

and the vanilla is constantly changing as well

[stiff helm]

there's definitely different styles zeekers uses for his stuff, kidnapper fox and butler are super detailed while you have stuff like the barber and the dogs which are super simple

[stiff helm]

yeah

[willow verge]

they all have the same feel to me

except for the kidnapper fox. just feels out of place

[stiff helm]

anything that's vanilla friendly to me is just stuff that doesn't go super ham with the style and theme and doesn't super break immersion

but again it like

largely doesn't matter

[willow verge]

i consider this mod vanilla friendly, but i can see how others wouldnt

[stiff helm]

only thing that kinda makes kf feel out of place is that weird shader thing it has on its neck that makes it move in a weird way

[willow verge]

imo anything that doesnt drastically change how the game is played or really stand out is vanilla friendly

[stiff helm]

I think the most non-vanilla thing ever is zed dog but it's supposed to be an easter egg so bleh who cares

[stiff helm]

yah, or stuff that references other media heavily

[olive galleon]

I remember a while back I was making a animation too in unity with lc characters in my interior

Might try again in my interior

Inspired by yours

[willow verge]

man we need more monsters inspired by horror movies

[errant bluff]

i just find it silly that people can say that an animation of a fellow employee flipping a switch for you isnt vanilla friendly while having some ridiculous mods like goku as the bracken or the family guy house as a moon. lol

https://tenor.com/view/mewing-cat-mewing-mewing-meme-cat-staring-cat-gif-6979404450990708267

[willow verge]

goku is 100% vanilla friendly

hes the original monster

https://tenor.com/view/lethal-company-goku-gif-14908848695245433598

[errant bluff]

fair xD

[midnight sierra]

real

[midnight sierra]

👍

I guess you guys liked the update

[midnight sierra]

No

But I could make a config or something

I don’t want to touch synthesis, it’s so weird moon that needs remake

:/

[stiff helm]

really? I think it's a pretty good moon honestly

what are your issues with it?

[midnight sierra]

It’s sooo weird

In technical part

I wrote stupid code to it and elevator isn’t fully migrated to the LC’s elevator

Also I have to make apparatus easy to find

and make fire exit blocked until you enter main entrance

then make apparatus value to 0. I think that will be fair. Because there’s a people that just steals apparatus.

And sells it 🤷‍♂️

Or I can make it disappear when the round is finished.

[errant bluff]

facility meltdown also affects the price of the apparatus, so it ends up being like 300 dollars xd

[stiff helm]

Oooh in that sense, hm

[midnight sierra]

Since a lot of people owns synthesis

What about winter mod to it?

[stiff helm]

I think making the fire exit only be accessible via some skill-heavy thing like parkour or something like that would be fine

[stiff helm]

oh jesus

[stiff helm]

meh I don't think it needs it

[midnight sierra]

No

it should be accessible after entering through the main door

[stiff helm]

yeah the idea kinda sucks LOL I'm just spitballing

maybe you can make it so the fire exit has a fence around it or opens to a room that you can only open the door out of from the inside?

that would serve your idea

[errant bluff]

it could be nice but i dont think its really needed, i really like having another forest moon besides the vanilla ones

[stiff helm]

yeeh it's a cool forest moon, I like how green it is

[midnight sierra]

What about I just make it not interactable?

[stiff helm]

Uh I mean that's an option lol

[midnight sierra]

[willow verge]

i like the elevator apparatus having value, adds risk and reward in case your teammates arent out in time

[stiff helm]

yea you also can't take it out, right?

[midnight sierra]

You can take it with you and

sell it

[stiff helm]

yeah but you can't rip it out of the elevator, right?

[midnight sierra]

Yes

Just found a bug on vacuity and now trying to fix ittt

[midnight sierra]

Vacuity Moon - Update v1.0.4

Small fixes

Changelog: https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/luakite/Vacuity_Moon/changelog/

[stiff helm]

ooo

[midnight sierra]

ooo

[stiff helm]

ooo

[waxen iron]

this would be ideal

also i'm personally an advocate for the apparatus keeping its value, i don't think being able to steal and sell it is really a problem, i honestly found it interesting

since it's not like it's ever really that profitable compared to looting the moon normally

[midnight sierra]

🤷‍♂️

[olive galleon]

screenshots of vacuity interior

I didnt know it had one

[stiff helm]

ít doesn't, I think kite just labels the moons "interior" cuz they have parts which go into a sort of "exterior interior"

[midnight sierra]

Yes

Same as synthesis

[midnight sierra]

[errant bluff]

[midnight sierra]

I want to make a mod that changes

lc gameplay

realtime moos and some alpha things ig

[olive galleon]

?

[midnight sierra]

I mean something like

When you land to the moon

It will have different time

Not always morning

And full day night cycle

[stray carbon]

https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1274028915022762067

it's in WIP

[midnight sierra]

Nah I'll do my own

[stray carbon]

I wish you luck

[midnight sierra]

I made a full day night cycle

I need to correct some values and uh

it looks cool

[olive galleon]

Bro finished it in a day

[midnight sierra]

y

[round flower]

the restoration of v9?!

[midnight sierra]

idk

[stray carbon]

I hope it has a fix of the Quota skip when having full Day cycles mod

[midnight sierra]

Hmm?

Oh you mean skipping days when ur in da moon?

[stray carbon]

No, When you use those mods that extend the stay time, you skip one more day of the Quota (from 3 to 1 immediately), regardless of when you leave the moon

[midnight sierra]

I haven't seen such a problem

[stray carbon]

I'm happy to see that :]

[midnight sierra]

#dev-general message

boi

[stray carbon]

Pretty cool

[midnight sierra]

It will be

like a pack of mods (features)

where you could set everything up in config files

[stray carbon]

Thank you

no way you still didn't playd yet

[midnight sierra]

this guy is there since v1.1.0 or something

[stiff helm]

i've been busy with college 😔

[midnight sierra]

study

eclipsed time works different?

my patch doesn't work

🤔

[willow verge]

who is this evil mf bruh

[midnight sierra]

i have no clue

[stray carbon]

Just on that topic.
It seems that with the seasons update the planet tag has been changed to Blizzard, even though I have kept via config to just desert.

This causes the Chameleon mod, which adds new textures to the Mineshaft caves dependent to the planet tag to be ice even though the surface is desert.

[midnight sierra]

what?

ill check that later

I don’t think I have changed

the moon tags

[stray carbon]

@mild hedge Hi!
Sorry for pinging, I wanna make sure about this, due to it's related to the Chameleon mod.

[mild hedge]

right now chameleon doesn't do anything with LLL tags - that's planned for the future but it's a distant future, with no ETA

does the level in question have the snowy footprints boolean set in SelectableLevel?

because that is the one thing that is used for autocompat, right now

[stray carbon]

oh!
I see, thx

[midnight sierra]

🤷‍♂️

[midnight sierra]

[midnight sierra]

there will be a mod that returns old 41 exp

[stray carbon]

I'm intrigued by your day and night cycle

[severe rune]

Vacuity needs LLL dynamic tags. Probably just another wasteland or canyon. Thank you in advance.

Also S- difficulty? Why not.. A+? just a bit out there, but that's fine.

[midnight sierra]

Idk

[midnight sierra]

[midnight sierra]

I actually wrote just S not S-

[severe rune]

I could double check, but I swear it said S- which is why I noted that

[midnight sierra]

You don’t have to

Ik it is S-

I guess the game changes difficulty text automatically

[severe rune]

I noted it, because I've been tracking moons I tested in a spreadsheet, and that was the first S- I've ever seen, in 100 moons.

I mean I've also got "???" and "REDACTED" and Generic thought C- was sensible right next to a D+ moon...

[midnight sierra]

🤷‍♂️

[analog bridge]

lc had a v9?

[stiff helm]

[unborn wolf]

yeah

just that v9 was never really a popular ver

v45 was probs the most popular ver

that got LC where it is today

could also say its v49

[analog bridge]

on hiatus?

[brisk kayak]

Yeah v49 was when my friends stopped playing :c I gotta make them play my moons and experience every new stuff in the game

[analog bridge]

ah the transition between v49 and v50

[terse siren]

Boss fight on Vacuity???

[midnight sierra]

wdym?

[terse siren]

You should add a boss fight

[stray carbon]

Use seichi instead, they have a samurai :]

[terse siren]

Seichi?

[stray carbon]

yup seichi, made by @brisk kayak :]

[terse siren]

Okay 🙂

We summoned the creator

[brisk kayak]

Boss feature is gonna be a thing soon, its in WIP but samurai already goes brr

[terse siren]

Is the samurai just a enemy for now?

[stiff helm]

more of a hazard

[terse siren]

Alright

[midnight sierra]

Bossfight with who?

there’s actually one moon 🤓👆

[stray carbon]

2?

Synthesis & Vacuity

[midnight sierra]

i mean behind earth

[stray carbon]

ah

btw, how's your progress with the v9 mod version?

[midnight sierra]

I still didn’t finish my client’s job

and I think

I won’t do that mod

🙂

[midnight sierra]

Just try this one

[stray carbon]

I wanted to see your longer night :,]

it seemed cool

[midnight sierra]

Wait it’s not there on that mod?

[stray carbon]

not in the way you described

getting past 12am

[midnight sierra]

Then it’s stupid to have a time in planets

[stray carbon]

yup

that's the reason I'm not using it

[midnight sierra]

My mod works but on the eclipsed moons it’s bugged

Because I change all the code in the TimeOfDay class and some of them in the StartOfRound

[stray carbon]

oh

how is it bugged?

in what way?

[midnight sierra]

it just works different on eclipsed moons idk why

[stray carbon]

oof :,]

I understand that you don't want to continue with the project.
But if at some point you have plans to continue, I'll be looking forward to it.

[midnight sierra]

maybe I will upload it somewhere soon

[supple orchid]

@midnight sierra When Stormy the elevator apparatus on Synthesis constantly gets charged in the elevator. Any way to remove its conductivity when it is docked in the elevator?

[midnight sierra]

Hey

I don’t know, I have to see

[wheat prism]

will it be possible to take the apparatus out once it's plugged into the elevator? like once you're done with everything else, take it out and bring it to the ship?

[midnight sierra]

No

You want to sell it ik

I want to make it priceless

[midnight sierra]

For now you should play Vacuity, it’s better than Synthesis 👍 (unskipable ad)

Still

Synthesis needs update

[supple orchid]

I just finished configuring moons for Shattered Company the other day and landed there twice to set up interiors. It was nice to see a friendly face.... and then not as nice the seccond time hahahahaha

[midnight sierra]

You should go 6 times on Vacuity

[midnight sierra]

Well there was many many reasons

It started from one guy telling

That he likes to land synthesis, get the apparatus and just leave to sell it

[analog bridge]

yea...

[midnight sierra]

I want to make new buildings for Synthesis

and replace it with the entrance

[analog bridge]

... find more orange appies inside? :3

[midnight sierra]

No but I could make a power to the elevator

So you have to turn off the elevator until you use it

otherwise power will go dooown

[analog bridge]

[midnight sierra]

Also I was thinking about many floors that has scraps

So basically scraps on the moon

[analog bridge]

i do enjoy finding scrap outdoors

[midnight sierra]

@fallow drum I made this feature just for you

[fallow drum]

I saw that you did that

[midnight sierra]

That would be fair

For all the people

[fallow drum]

The fact you made the Apparatus spawns no longer random helps, if they were still random that change would have been horrible

[midnight sierra]

Yeah, they have to spawn randomly but very near to the entrance

For now it’s disabled because of a bug

[stiff helm]

looks pretty, I love it!

I dislike fire exit being locked cuz it kind of makes the gameplay uber linear, esp since the random app position was taken out as well

atleast let us unlock it with a key or something 😔

I'm excited to try this moon again though!!

[errant bluff]

i agree with that, a way to unlock fire besides the apparatus could be nice

maybe someone has to go there and find a code to put in the terminal

[stiff helm]

oh yeah, that would be fun

could give it 4 or 5 different code variations

and when you play enough to learn all the codes you can just cycle through all possible ones upon landing (knowledge check)

[midnight sierra]

🤔

[midnight sierra]

Someone should make a new company scene

[midnight sierra]

I'm trying to make an elevator "API"

Where you could add to your moon elevator by just adding

API to the dependecies and add one gameObject where elevator should stand

Elevator is used to enter facility "seamlessly" like in alpha LC

[stiff helm]

interesting!

[midnight sierra]

new moon leak

[midnight sierra]

y

[midnight sierra]

20k 🎉

[midnight sierra]

Here's the real leak

not done, not accurate but ok

[main fjord]

looks fire

[errant bluff]

oooh

i remember getting into that area with an extension ladder

[stiff helm]

firee

[hushed gyro]

why is experimentation green..

[errant bluff]

because

the green one is here

[main fjord]

would be nice to have the v4 gameplay cycle, going deeper that would also work with generating a different (also modded) interior each floor

[fallow drum]

Personally not a fan of the Synthesis update, I was checking it out solo and couldn't find that stupid Apparatus anywhere

[astral saffron]

Did you check the elevator room?

[fallow drum]

Yep and it wasn't there

I kinda hate the moon having that fetch quest everytime anyways and the blocking off of the fire exit made me not even wanna test the update but I tried it cus it was supposed to no longer have random spawn points

I like the moon from a design standpoint just don't like it gameplay wise

Now don't get me wrong this is just my criticism tbh, I like the Elevator, I like the moon and finding the Apparatus the first few times was cool but it ends up feeling like a chore after thats just not fun to do

[astral saffron]

Like right here?

[fallow drum]

I ran around that room and it didn't spawn there lol

It was Eclipsed too

[astral saffron]

same here

[fallow drum]

But considering it's supposed to have fixed spawns

I wonder if it bugs sometimes

[astral saffron]

maybe try again.

[stiff helm]

I call skill issue /j

no yeah the locked fire exit is a actually terrible for the moon's gameplay

I get wanting to emphasize the apparatus entrance but the fe change completely linearizes it

I'm not one to complain about moon design like this cuz I really value the creator's vision, so I'm sorry about that

but it's really frustrating to see a great moon like this change for the worse

[fallow drum]

Yeah especially since as I discovered it seems like the Apparatus can sometimes fail to spawn

[stiff helm]

I think the ideas CobaltDunlin and I threw around could be good for upkeeping the importance of the apparatus while satisfying the need for... replayability I guess?

[midnight sierra]

Hmm

I have to see

[errant bluff]

[full orchid]

Yeah the Appy Hunt for Synthesis in all honesty is my least favorite feature from there

I like how the moon's structured thus far, but being forced to have to go on a scavenger hunt just to even get into the interior is just plain annoying after like the first time or two

Something like having to operate the levers on Submersion to lower the water for main access is I think OK since it's quick and easy to understand (Plus if you have good enough platforming skills, you can access a fire exit early)

Cause iirc doesn't the light in front of main for Vacuity go out when the Apparatus is pulled or am I tripping?

[midnight sierra]

What?

Apparatus doesn’t spawn randomly like before

It’s on fixed position

[midnight sierra]

I don’t think so

[full orchid]

Hmm, the other thing I'm thinking of is one of the 6 cutscene variants might be dark down there, I'll have to check at some point

[full orchid]

Checked and idk wtf happened to cause it to get dark in main, I also do have to apologize cause uh well

[midnight sierra]

Ik what are u talking about

The light goes off randomly and based on the interior I think

But I didn’t see any parameters for it tho

[full orchid]

My feedback is very much null and void, thank you for making it fixed cause I really disliked the whole like 10 random spots across the map thing

Little bit ??? that the fire exit is locked until Appy is placed but in a large group setting that's pretty workable tbh

I'm not opposed to SOME random spots (I mean Submersion does the same thing with its 2 water drain levers) but I think it being randomized in that room or pretty close to the elevator I think is a pretty reasonable little quirk

[midnight sierra]

Huh?

[errant bluff]

whenever a masked leaves the facility on vacuity they just go to this corner, stand there a few seconds then go back inside

then just kinda go into a loop of going inside, back out and standing in the corner, then back inside

[analog bridge]

they were bad and sent there

[errant bluff]

lol

also i think this interior is pretty good on vacuity

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Generic_GMD/Generic_Interiors/

[wheat prism]

i would guess the navmeshes aren't set up to go anywhere beside that corner since most enemies can't use the elevator anyway. but since masks are already configured to use the mineshaft's elevator, and i assume vacuity's elevator uses the same script as vanilla (like synthesis), it probably wouldn't be too hard to make masks able to use that elevator

i also haven't asked @midnight sierra are masks able to use synthesis' elevator?

[full orchid]

Figured it out, if a "Blackout" occurs in the respective interior, then the outside light isn't on either

[midnight sierra]

👍

[midnight sierra]

No, but they can use the big door and go outside

[midnight sierra]

I use custom scripts, not vanilla

since Synthesis released before mineshaft interiors

[wheat prism]

so when mineshaft came out did you just use part of it to make it work again when the elevator broke?

[full orchid]

But ye here it is for reference, this happened when the Mansion interior was rolled

[midnight sierra]

I used PlayerPhysicsRegion to make it work and it is used by vehicles

When the mineshaft version released I just updated my dll references for Synthesis scripts

and it worked lol

[midnight sierra]

«that’s a new featureeee»

[midnight sierra]

When I tested them with Imperium, they could leave the building and go straight to the ship

[wheat prism]

Gotcha, would be cool to see masks calling those elevators though, would it be difficult to implement vanilla's mask script that allows them to use the button?

[errant bluff]

huh, alright

[fallow drum]

@midnight sierra Vacuity seems to throw some errors on V65

[wheat prism]

at what point did you get this error

[fallow drum]

Not sure, I was just checking the logs for errors

[wheat prism]

i did notice this after all the errors, did it play the normal ship landing animation instead of the custom one for vacuity?

cus this probably all happened during the moon's generation if it did revert to the original animation

[fallow drum]

I mean I don't think I've ever seen the custom one for Vacuity

Athough if a Cruiser is attached it does weird shit and slides onto the magnet while landing

[wheat prism]

huh

it doesn't do that for me, it might be something else interfering

[wheat prism]

do you have any mods that change the ship model? like 2 story ship or widership? and does it happen if you don't have it?

[fallow drum]

I do have those mods yeah

Idk if it's caused by them though

Since @stray carbon added them for the Diversity event pack

[wheat prism]

wouldn't hurt to try with them disabled

[stiff helm]

I imagine ship animations could break with ship model changes

so maybe it's that, perhapusu

[wheat prism]

at the least i'd imagine it messes with where the cruiser gets attached to the ship during a custom animation

[errant bluff]

the animation on Synthesis works just fine for me and i have widership. idk if it works on Vacuity because its just kinda hard to see the ground while landing there

[stray carbon]

I think that Log can be ignored for the event if it's not a big issue

#dev-general message

[errant bluff]

[midnight sierra]

that is what i wanted to show

[errant bluff]

very cool

[wheat prism]

this is so sick

would it be possible for monsters to get on the elevator, or allow them to ride it to the exterior?

[midnight sierra]

no

lol

it generates every time you go down

[wheat prism]

so a new dungen for each time you tell it to go down, and it just goes to the exterior when you go up?

[mystic pine]

Something sorta rubbed me the wrong way about the recent update involving the Apparatus.

If you need the Elevator and the Apparatus to go to the main entrance, but the Fire Exit gets locked until you activate it, why have an Apparatus at all?

Instead, why not just have it so the elevator is already active without an Apparatus?

[mystic pine]

Since the new update removes the ability to just cheese the mechanic by taking the fire exit, I find no point in there being an Apparatus if you're forced to activate it anyways.

And if my name is any indication of my intentions, then I would personally like to nab the Apparatus in exchange for not being able to enter from the front.

So it's either that or no Apparatus at all.

[midnight sierra]

y

[midnight sierra]

I could make a saving system, so you have to activate apparatus once

and it saves there

[low flicker]

I would like a way to be able to keep the elevator apparatus if possible. Even though people could go through the fire exit instead, they had to find the fire exit to leave instead of going through the main entrance if they planned to obtain the elevator apparatus. It's kind of like a lose and gain situation. And I mean it's literally an orange apparatus, who wouldn't want to keep it 😂

[mystic pine]

This is kinda why I decided to roll back my update before the fire exit got locked.

[stiff helm]

mhm

[stiff helm]

hard locking the prize to 50 or smth would be enough to balance it, too

hope these issues are adressed eventually, but if not i'll just roll it back too

[midnight sierra]

Floor numbers

[low flicker]

I think being forced to enter and exit the same fire exit just to keep an orange apparatus is already balanced. I mean, it automatically makes you only exit one spot so you wouldn't be able to scatter and collect as much scrap as normal so I think 80 might be enough. But I mean glad there are other orange apparatus enjoyers haha

[stiff helm]

I personally didn't see much of a problem w it yeah, but there was this one person who would just go to the moon, grab the apparatus and leave because facility meltdown was changing its prize I think?

so it was worth like 280

[low flicker]

Facility meltdown affects that app??

[stiff helm]

but that's still so unoptimal though LMAO

[stiff helm]

I think it just tweaks all apparatus items

might be wrong in that it affects this one though?

[midnight sierra]

Yes it is

[stiff helm]

I just know someone used to do that and Kite didn't like it

[midnight sierra]

What do you guys think?

I used decals to affect lighting lol

[low flicker]

Why would floor numbers be needed?

[midnight sierra]

It is also up to 999 floors

[stiff helm]

could always look into how it changes the prize, if it's by how the item is registered or by its name or something and prevent it from doing that

[midnight sierra]

I use same ScriptableObject as regular Apparatus

that's why

[midnight sierra]

It is not Synthesis

[stiff helm]

ahh makes sense

and would changing that affect how it works with the elevator?

[low flicker]

What is it? :0

[midnight sierra]

This one

[low flicker]

Checked it out. Is this a facility interior but with more vertical than horizontal with an elevator?

I rly hope it actually doesn't go down 999 floors lmao

[midnight sierra]

It's endless elevator

[low flicker]

Endless? How are we able to collect the scrap in time then?

[midnight sierra]

Collect scrap and

just go up and leave

[low flicker]

With that elevator work with every interior?

[midnight sierra]

No

But it could if interior has some stuff for elevator setup

Now it's just for my moon named 7510 Zeranos

[low flicker]

How easy was it to make a custom apparatus btw? Curios because I'm thinking of making an apparatus mod myself

Zeranos sounds unique

[midnight sierra]

Just drag and drop apparatus prefab to ur mod

If you want it on the moon

or interior

but keep in mind that when you reload the game they disappear

because you don't actually spawn it

[low flicker]

Where do I go to ask people for help in making a mod?

And moreso just to announce I want to make a mod

[astral saffron]

A few questions I have for this:

How is this gonna work? If you keep going down is it going to unload the other floors?

Can you keep going down if someone is left on a different floor?
Does everybody have to be in the elevator for it to go down?
How is this gonna work with the in-game time?
Wouldn't we run out of time before we can even keep going down or get back up in time? (I have this issue already fixed in my modpack for nicer autopilot. It doesn't take off at 12 AM.)

[midnight sierra]

1. Yes.
2. They'll just die there.
3. No.
4. It is not connected with in-game time? I didn't understand the question.
5. I'm planning to make Zeranos time to be cycled with night times but quota time doesn't stop.

@astral saffron

[astral saffron]

Awesome! Question 4 and 5 were just the same thing sorry! I'm very interested on how this is gonna work.

[midnight sierra]

I also plan to make custom enemies and scraps for this moon

custom music and some other cool stuff

[wheat prism]

bros going for the magnum opus

[silk meteor]

I’m all for it

[light sandal]

Sounds inredible

[low flicker]

Can you edit the Elevator Apparatus a bit? Looking closely it has an odd visual on it's surface that all other apparatuses don't do, even vanilla. And could we please have an option to keep the elevator apparatus 😭

[mystic pine]

I can see an alternate way of tackling the moon. If you have the Inverse teleporter, you can take it to go in blind and randomly be put into a room, so then you gotta find your way to the exit along with finding scrap.

[stiff helm]

All the moon needs is only two positions for the apparatus and a code-locked fire exit that uses the same code as secure doors from facility

to make inversing not super unfair even if you go to

I dropped my keyboard FUCK

[stiff helm]

fire from the inside you can make it so the exit from fire has a button on the inside to open the door

[low flicker]

Honestly thinking about it, I wouldn't know how to have it work with lethal meltdown. The apparatus is cool but if it was acquirable, it would be brought up to 240 by default which feels like so much.

Maybe if there was some sort of compatibility though as it is now feels okay

[stiff helm]

they just gotta change the scriptable object

[low flicker]

I wish they would, comoscos is like Endgame wesley and just to find a 240 purple apparatus kinda hurts 😭

I feel like it would be simple but whatever is decided. 🙏 😭

oh mb I thought this was the wesley chat

But still what you said lol

[stiff helm]

iirc it stacks the og prize on top or smth

[low flicker]

wdym?

[midnight sierra]

yeah wdym?

I was finding the thread heheh

[midnight sierra]

well uh

I already do that on all my moons

but without this asset

[round flower]

hell yeah

[main fjord]

is this just a wip start tile, or will try to you use the normal facility starting tile later on? (modified to properly fit in elevator entrace)

[midnight sierra]

it's the main start room

i actually want to make it random

but idk

[stiff helm]

oh neato!

[midnight sierra]

sad

[round flower]

why sad?

[midnight sierra]

0 power

[round flower]

oh... i have an apparatus here...

[low flicker]

I just found this. Please for the love of everything, someone tell me if this is still being worked on. I beg

[wheat prism]

it is

but this might not be the final form of the map

since it's still in development

[low flicker]

Is it not just an interior?

[wheat prism]

no

[stiff helm]

this may be what his current project turned into, I guess?

since this seems like it's a recreation of old experimentation

[raven schooner]

it's probably not going to change seeing as how it's a port of the alpha experimentation map

[wheat prism]

what you linked to was kite's attempt to restore the old version 4 experimentation

[stiff helm]

and his newest moon + interior bundle is inspired by the mechanics of the old LC builds

[wheat prism]

yeah

[low flicker]

Ohh. Is that out yet or still bieng worked on?

[wheat prism]

still being worked on

[low flicker]

The moon + interior

oh ok

[stiff helm]

that's what he's been posting so it's still being worked on

[stiff helm]

,

this stuff

[wheat prism]

his mechanic he's working on right now is a seamless transition between interior and exterior via the elevator

[low flicker]

Is he using just basic facility or a custom alpha facility?

[wheat prism]

right now it looks like facility with a custom main entrance for the elevator

[low flicker]

ohhh. Well the idea is still cool! Just hope someone eventually makes a beta/alpha facility interior. That would be so sick. But I look forward to the finished product fr 🙏

[wheat prism]

he also said that you can keep going down once you reach the main entrance, and it will generate a new DunGen for each floor

[low flicker]

I heard of that, but if the dungen is just facility just different each time it would feel repeditive. But again, still think it's a cool concept

[wheat prism]

perhaps, but a different layout each time is an interesting idea

and speaking from my personal wishes, it would be cool if varants of mansion and mineshaft were made for this map

[low flicker]

If alpha interior design was used, kind of like what we already have plus what has been worked on, plus the elevator function, it would have a new interior with a gimmick. But I mean whatever is chose. Idm

[wheat prism]

also did wanna mention i tested a moon yesterday that is similar to v4 experimentation, called 88 Rorm by Sniper1_1

it's not an exact replica but has a very similar appearance

[low flicker]

very low chance but what about it's interior?

chance that is has a custom one ..

[wheat prism]

interior is facility

[low flicker]

😭

[wheat prism]

unless you assign something to it in LLL

the actual interior part of version 4 is very similar to facility anyway

the only difference of course was the elevator entrance

[low flicker]

It had a slight different shade, longer stairs downward, an orange apparatus, I think brown walls at somepoint, it was alpha of course but had it's own charm 😭

A beautiful work of art fr

[wheat prism]

yeah

[midnight sierra]

oh btw
