gosh I didn't know people wanted me dead so bad

#

guess I have nothing else to live fooooooorrr..... EXCEPT FOR THE UPCOMING UPDATE FOR BIODIVERSITY, THE NOT-WAXSOLDIER UPDATE, FEATURING BOOM BIRDS, BUG FIXES AND MORE

#

RELEASING: idk

I flipping love ambient monsters

#

Waiting patiently for snailcat, boom bird and rock crab

#

They probably have some purpose or do something like prototax, but looks ambient enough ¯_(ツ)_/¯

vestal plume
#

if you keep an eye on them boom birds are pretty much ambient

soft raft
#

Wait are they called boom birds because.... they bring the boom?

inland cloak
#

also cuz they gonna go boom

soft raft
#

How many booms does coderebirth get

inland cloak
#

5 booms

#

maybe 4

#

actually 7

the horror...

sacred delta
#

I have cutiefly enabled with quite high spawnrate and I still haven’t seen one in a while

#

They’re either plotting something or I have several mental issues

inland cloak
#

theyre plotting alright

sacred delta
#

So it’s both yoiled

soft raft
sacred delta
#

If the setting at the top is “true” they’re enabled right?

#

Can’t remember the exact wording but every time I check it’s true.

soft raft
#

Yeah true is enabled

sacred delta
#

Weird

#

They have a weight on adamance of 40 for example

#

I’m assuming they’re a daytime enemy. Still haven’t seen one

Hey so earlier today, me and a friend was playing LC and the Aloe just kept grabbing me. I mean like, it was eclipsed, I got grabbed by the Aleo but instead of running off, it came straight for me again and kept grabbing. Is something wrong with it or is this intended?

so that's probably a good idea

# vestal plume that is how the enemy works, yes

so this is intended behavoir on eclispe? This is different I mean like I was dragged and had like almost no room to run away from it. The ONLY way I got away was it fell in a cage mine from testaccount. It would've been an endless loop.

What's the power level of the ogopogo?

#

I've asked this before as well, but I forgot, but what's the power level of the vermin, and how many of them can spawn?

inland cloak
#

2

vestal plume
#

ogopogo's prolly 2 though yeah

#

vermin I forget, prolly a decimal

inland cloak

Does vermin spawning during flooded work?

vestal plume
sacred delta
#

I can’t remember why I disabled it but I think it was from them spawning in the ground. Don’t take anything from that since my memory isn’t the greatest.

vestal plume
#

I actually remember we were gonna try and fix that for next version so, we'll see if we manage to

sacred delta
#

Alr thanks

#

I’ll probably re-enable them anyway since LC’s water life is underwhelming

#

I love those little guys. Even if they stress my friends which have played Subnautica

vestal plume
sacred delta
#

It’s just vermin but they’re not crapbags right?

vestal plume
#

it's like vermin, but they look cuter

#

mhm!

sacred delta
#

So basically just vermin but they only roam and not attack players?

vestal plume
#

they try their best

sacred delta
#

I’ll check it out. LC desperately needs more water life.

buttery released a fix for it but the multiple barbers got taken out of basegame

Just thought I’d clarify barbers spawned in groups of 2 and had a max count of 8 ^

Not spawning in groups of 8

That’d be hellish

Ogopogos are killable??

void willow
#

Not to complain or anything, the Ogopogo is my second favorite monster in this collection and knowing that it does that has impressed me, but that doesn't negate the fact that I find it somewhat unnecessary since it will never be seen doing it unless using imperium or camera cheats.

vestal plume
#

That's the death animation

sacred delta
#

How much health do ogopogos have?

vestal plume
#

the Ogopogo does roar when it comes out, that's why the mouth is open lol

vestal plume
sacred delta
#

Thats quite a small amount for how big they are

#

to be fair being hit 20 times in the face wouldnt be great for anything

void willow
#

that's whay I think it's kinda unnecesary :,]

vestal plume
#

if it was more than 20 you wouldn't be able to kill it like, ever, with anything

#

you can kill ogopogo with an exploding cruiser, too

I wanted it to move while wandering because most vanilla bodies of water allow you to see it, like the little top lip part

it used to not have an idle animation but it looked like just... idk a rock sliding at the bottom of the lake

now atleast it looks like it's pacing back and forth

#

You'd need a whole team with shotguns and a setup to know how far he is to cancel his grab to kill him easily. The person running would need to be using a jetpack to go fast enough.

It's not reasonable in and way lol

how much damage do they do?

vestal plume
#

also of course it's out of the question for how "fair" it is to take out Ogo but modded weapons can do extra damage and there's also throwable items that do a ton of damage (mostly via explosions)

#

Also good progress today, all the [ thing's ] animations are done, we finished the visuals of another enemy and found a few wacky bugs to fix :]

there's just been a lot of flooding in the country lately.

I guess some loose ground above one of our pipes just began absorbing a lot of water, the ground turned into mud and eventually just collapsed

iirc the bit that collapsed is where sewage goes through?

not only is the hole bigger, we're having electricity issues now

our circuit breaker had been having problems recently with it turning shit off randomly, and we narrowed down the problem to the water pump and SPECIFICALLY my rooms electricity

only time i've heard the term development hell used is for when games have a horrible problem they can't seem to fix and it fucks up the whole dev cycle and bottlenecks progress, or when they keep re-doing shit, neither of which is really what's goin on here, but I don't actually know the meaning of the term heheh

charred ore
#

That's one of it's meanings

#

I just use it for when something doesn't have a lot to do but takes a long time

#

The game I'm most familiar with the term on is kingdom hearts 3, which got delayed by like 6 years because they couldn't get licensing for Pixar characters

vestal plume
#

oh then yeah that's very applicable to this LOL

#

not that the coding involved in what's getting delayed isn't sizeable it's just that it's better to release stuff now and then do smaller stuff laters

Isn’t it canon that ogopogos travel underground anyway? I haven’t read the bestiary in a while but it mentioned caves or something similar.

vestal plume
#

we actually added a few nods to that in this update, which is fun

sacred delta
#

So if I understand currently their main nesting and hunting points is in lakes but they travel between lakes, bodies of water and just live underground by travelling under the ground?

#

I’m glad if so since that was my headcanon anyway, didn’t make sense for a big water noodle to be in a small river or lake.

Btw does the ogopogo have fucked spawning or is CentralConfig not compatible with it rn

I never see it now that I installed CC

I don't have flatten enemy curves on either, so it's not that

#

Unrelated critique, but the leaf boy's falloff curve should be changed to be either flat or decreasing. They overpower manticoils and roaming locusts to that they've become an uncommon sight due to just how many leaf boys there are

tropic ingot
vestal plume
#

on vow they're supposed to completely overpower anything, ye

#

they also spawn in groups so ye

tropic ingot
#

I guess I should decrease their spawn chance everywhere then

Since I meant for them to be equalized

vestal plume

it might be a side effect of their power level being increeedibly low

I now pretty much add it to every modpack. Namely including my "lore accurate" modpack that I had made for fun. Hard to add custom monsters when most dont try to fit into LC's story.

yeah its honestly surprising how little vanilla friendly mods there are

#

maybe a third of the available mods at best

#

shitposts excluded

sacred delta
#

I know how much people forcing vanilla styled stuff is frowned upon or viewed as annoying. But I always love it when a mod fits seamlessly into vanilla

hidden pollen
#

Its frowned upon? tf?

sacred delta
#

It always gives the feeling of playing an update for the first time because it feels like an extention to the base game.

sacred delta
# hidden pollen Its frowned upon? tf?

Dont know how to really explain it, hasnt happened in a few months (afaik) but people used to complain when something wasnt "vanilla styled" and it was seen as quite annoying

#

I wouldnt say so now

hidden pollen
#

Oh I thought you meant the other way around

#

I mean, I dont frown upon it, I just heavily prefer vanilla styled

sacred delta
#

Same here

#

Some silly things are fine because its meant to be fun

#

But I like my game keeping LC's original atmosphere it has

hidden pollen
#

Yeah, mods that expand on a game are the best for sure

sacred delta
#

Biodiversity, Chameleon, Generic Interiors and that new storage complex (from beanie iirc) always feel like it should be a part of the base game

#

Probably not in a literal sense since its subjective

#

But they get very close to that feeling whenever a base LC update releases

#

Finding mineshaft for the first time made the game feel so different

vestal plume
#

they still kind of are just not as much and they're a lot more respectful

#

I was one of those too lol

hidden pollen
#

Perks of no longer being in the limelight I guess

vestal plume
#

it's jus tpeople learned how to be more respectful I suppose

#

and actually learned that people like to make mods because... they like to add the stuff they want to add

#

and NOT whatever some random guy in a forum tells them they need to add

#

so instead of coming in the shape of a demand it's in the shape of a suggestion or light criticism

#

like, take the convo on nikki's moons thread rn

#

back in like july of last year people would've very loudly complained about a singular sound effect being a reference to something

hidden pollen
#

And now we have rubber rooms

vestal plume

and said they would NOT play the moon because it has a veeeery very small detail they don't like that breaks immersion

Honestly it's somewhat down to whoever is hosting a session to make sure things are balanced, when using numerous mods, in Lethal's case a balance for custom enemies and scrap and their weights depending on environments

#

yeah, of course if you just download 100 mods and don't configure them in any way you'll experience hell

inland cloak
#

greed chat how we feel about hard enemies. Somebody told me the game was too easy and i took it personally

#

Also said person should remove alot of their "QoL" mods that make items not weigh you sown and having extra stamina

#

Nudge nudge

vestal plume
#

but it's important to have a sooomewhat balanced mod right out the gate, which is what I try to do, and thankfully a lot more mods have started doing recently

nothing you guys had experienced, just we had two testing sessions recently and we got a really bad desync issue very consistently in regards to one of its counterplays lol

Maneater reference

Jester reference

tropic ingot
#

Jesters had desyncs?

simple notch
#

Do jesters have desync?

tropic ingot
#

Not rn no

#

but I guess they had a model desync when they're at full throttle

#

like how adult maneaters were

elfin delta
#

i think they might be talking about that more counterplay mod that lets you put items on top of the jester

#

had that cause desyncs before

tropic ingot
#

Oh

#

I was referencing something that happened to the maneater in vanilla while Zeek was betatesting

#

i need to figure out how to register biodiversity enemies for esr, man

#

can you add an EVIL skin for boombirds

vestal plume
#

#

they have an EVIL SCAR!!!!!

soft raft
vestal plume
#

the skin mod

soft raft
#

ohhh

vestal plume
#

the dev sent me a whole explanation on how to do it but it,.,,, requires code I think

#

and everytime I look at it I'm just like

soft raft
#

i mean to be fair, i didnt really wanna do that so i went down one of two paths (i did both cuz sometimes its good sometimes its not) and it's something you can do because you're the texturer?

vestal plume
#

yeah I can do the skins

#

idk how to do the other stuff though

#

I'm sure I could get the skins working just fine it's just registering that's different from what people like distinct and wesley have done tho

soft raft
#

i gave all my enemies a function that just says if they have a variant material, it has a random chance of applying one, most of the work is just in supplying the new textures in this one, the code is just a few lines

image.png
#

this is one way of doing it

vestal plume
#

outside of esr, right?

soft raft
#

the other way is snailcat, which uses a custom shader where i just give it a random colour and it messes with the hue of specific parts of the enemy, this one is a lot more involved but ill probably be enforcing it

#

yeah that's outside of esr

#

both of these outside of esr

vestal plume
#

yeah we were also gonna do it as like, part of the mod

#

but I figure that it could lift some weight off Figo's back if I figure it out

soft raft
#

i dislike how esr does skins, i was told it makes them technically separate enemies

vestal plume
#

...if.. I figure it out

soft raft
#

and that's just, not what i wanna do

vestal plume
#

I guess cuz it was mainly supposed to be for model changes? and not texture changes?

#

idrk why it does it that way

#

there's probably? a reason?

soft raft
#

(not really, i think it was just the implementation that happened at the time, though there might be a reason im unaware of but i just wouldnt do it that way anyway)

vestal plume
#

but yeah I think if I figured this out I could help save on file size, lighten up the workload on Figo and maaaybe open up the possibility for people to make skins of biodiversity enemies which would be super fun, but waughhh

soft raft
#

there's multiple ways you could do it, they all involve some bit of coding, my first solution dumps 1% of the work on me and 99% on rodrigo, the second one dumps 1% of the work on rodrigo and 99% of the work on me (creating a good shader that creates palette colours)

this was the inspiration for snailcats' randomization shader

that's a neat trick

vestal plume
#

I'm unsure how hard it would be for Figo to implement it, if it would even be hard for him to do so

soft raft
# vestal plume that's a neat trick

sadly it's only for pixel art, unless you go a bit creative with how you're doing it, palette swaps arent really a thing people do anymore/something that the engines easily support surprisingly lol

vestal plume
soft raft
#

that's fair, i use this for snailcat and plan to find other uses in the future probably

vestal plume
#

for the boom bird's I decided to add some more wear and tear of the feathers of a few of them or add more details to certain parts of em to set them apart, even if it's small details it's fun for me to add

vestal plume
soft raft
#

makes sense, for that you'd just ask figo to make something in the base Biodiversity enemy ai (iirc you guys have one) that just checks if there's variants and has a random chance of applying the variant, the work is just mostly on your end as it isnt anything impressive to set it up, only a few lines of code

vestal plume
#

which is why I thought maaaybe I should just do a side mod that uses ESR

soft raft
#

esr might be good with that, not sure as i havent used it, but it might be the way to go for you.
i dont really intend to support custom skins more than me and rodrigo's (or if someone makes one i would include it in the base mod lol)

writing lore and I just realized how awful this timeline is what the fuck is wrong with this game

adamance is just the one moon I can't find a good reason to go to consistently

sacred delta
#

Honestly adamance is one of my favourite moons but with the amount of hate it gets I’ll accept “Just ok” alright

vestal plume
#

I like the idea I like what it does but I feel like the commute no matter what will always be absolutely horrible on adamance

#

esp when you're not playing solo

#

i feel like funnily enough solo adamance is a bit better cuz you can always rely on the half-broken bridge

sacred delta
#

Wth

#

Of course you play modded

#

Ignore me I’m an idiot

vestal plume
#

LOL

sacred delta
#

I moreso mean if you edit moons. I know some people like to leave it as default since otherwise the config won’t auto update for LLL

vestal plume
#

I tend to edit moons, ye

#

though most of the time when I do it's usually just changing embrion to have 50 min 50 max scrap

#

so it's a bit more rewarding LOL

sacred delta
#

I do recommend making adamance a mansion moon then.

Makes it a bit more unique. Or atleast makes it a little more worth visiting since it doesn’t really look like the other moons

thorn scroll

#

the baboon hawks and old birds in particular ramp up super hard

peak trench
vestal plume
sacred delta
#

I love adamance’s unique map design that encourages parkour and hidden routes. Including some intended routes.

#

It’s the best in the vanilla game in terms of that kind of thing

#

It does have quite hellish outside spawns though since it shares a spawn curve with artifice iirc

charred ore
#

in that regard it does kinda feel like artifice jr. with how crazy outside spawns get

#

i did mention baboon hawks and old birds already but now that i think about it, the old birds aren't really a problem as much as the giants are

vestal plume
vestal plume
#

so ass

inland cloak
#

so jumping constantly across the bridge makes it fall way later

charred ore
#

i thought weight does factor into the bridge

tropic ingot
karmic wyvern
#

no, this is not true

#

the bridges on vow and adamance are actually kind of complicated

#

and i cannot say exact statistic facts

#

but theres two benefactors to how fast the bridge health deteriorates

charred ore
#

i pulled up alter ego's video on the bridges

karmic wyvern
#

the amount of players on it
the amount of weight a player has

#

jumping does not stall the breaking process also

#

because the hitbox goes a bit higher than just at the bridge

charred ore
#

it's a timer that gets added modifiers based on number of players and their weight if they weigh over 11 lbs

tropic ingot
#

So both of y'all are wrong?

#

Not you, Winter

karmic wyvern
#

the multipliers for how fast bridges break can also be edited

tropic ingot
#

I mean Purple and Rodrigo

charred ore
#

this is the collider

image.png
karmic wyvern
#

adamances is higher for both conditions that break it

charred ore
#

it's too tall to get out of it by jumping

karmic wyvern
#

thats why it breaks much easier, on top of being longer lol

#

the most you can get across adamances is one player with 16 LBS

charred ore
karmic wyvern
#

its possible to get across with 19 but it will break once you get to the other side

#

meanwhile, vows bridge can be crossed by one player with at least 96 pounds

tropic ingot
charred ore
#

real

tropic ingot
karmic wyvern
#

most just copy vows bridge

#

no multiplier edits

tropic ingot
#

Is it even possible?

karmic wyvern
#

it should be

#

also just to be clear

charred ore
#

can't wait for someone to copy adamances bridge

karmic wyvern
#

sprinting DOES NOT make bridges break faster

#

this is a common misconception

tropic ingot
karmic wyvern
#

anyways, this has been your purple lethal company information for the day

inland cloak
tropic ingot
inland cloak
#

now explain why you can jump multiple times if you spam spacebar on desert moons

charred ore
#

what

crystal trellis
soft raft
#

You can double jump if you spam space*

#

On desert moons*

charred ore
#

ive never seen that

soft raft
#

Try it

inland cloak
#

yeah while going up a slope

#

spam pspace and you can double, tripple jump

soft raft
#

Even the smallest of inclines work

velvet patrol
#

If you hold W, A, S, or D you can move while jumping after having pressed spacebar

karmic wyvern
#

this can happen anywhere because the jump input delay isnt long enough

soft raft
#

Nope

karmic wyvern
#

its just most prevelant on assurance because you dont go up a steep cliff often

soft raft
#

Maybe if you have horrible lag it can but nah

#

Incline doesn't have to be steep or anything

#

It can be a pretty small incline

tropic ingot
inland cloak
soft raft
#

Which u see in all moons

inland cloak
#

i gotta test more

soft raft
#

It's only in desert moons

inland cloak
#

but the desert moons were the only ones

soft raft
#

And its to do with their meshes

karmic wyvern
#

i have had it happen on adamance

soft raft
#

Zaggy told me why but I've forgor by now

karmic wyvern
#

and the reason you cant really purposefully do it is cause its just game jank

soft raft
#

Adamance mightve not been out when we found this tbh so idk

charred ore
#

oh wtf

#

literally 2nd try

#

thats so weird

karmic wyvern
#

its more common to happen on steep places because you get to the ground sooner

#

and assurance has a pretty steep cliff near ship

#

offense main path also does

soft raft
#

Again, any incline on the desert moons work

vestal plume
karmic wyvern
#

if no other moon has these inclines, idk then

charred ore
soft raft
#

All other moons probably have these inclines

karmic wyvern
#

anywas as i said

inland cloak
#

trying everywhere in adamcne rn and nothing

karmic wyvern

i probably wouldnt say everything perfectly right

but i at least have a basic understanding

of most things in this game

nothing super deep technical code wise

all the moons are really low effort

they even put in the description of antance that it was low effort

a moon replacement for another moon

I forgot which one

#

You know who else has low effort moons? Monty, that guys moons suck

charred ore

(ironically i thought antance was the best one)

tropic ingot
#

Why are you screenshotting, it's nothing big

karmic wyvern
#

i have to say in defense of tony
theyre obviously a younger person and just modding for a passion project

charred ore
neon salmon
#

tony has a youtube channel where he plays stuff

karmic wyvern
#

the only real problem i have with tonys work is how much it lacks creativity in exterior design

tropic ingot
#

As much as I don't like Tony it's weird to see everybody curb-stomping on him for it
I imagine it's very motivating for him considering he's in the server as well

karmic wyvern
#

i feel like if he tried to think more about what he designs, he would make a pretty good moon

#

and tbh the first one that had the cruiser elevator is the best example of that

#

fun fact, that one was actually improved

#

it used to be almost impossible to even get it out at the top

velvet patrol
#

He says in his mods he is open to feedback and wants to hear feedback and he emphasized that too when talking with him

karmic wyvern
#

did you mention how a majority of the old bird swarmed moons are kind of unfair

#

cause like
you cant really combat the rocket knockback

velvet patrol
#

Yes, there was section talking about that in the doc

karmic wyvern
#

also tonys stuff has made me laugh in a good way

#

one of the descriptions had "Fauna: Mosty Gaints" on it

#

that was so funny

#

maybe that isnt intentional

#

but its more value than what something like highway gave me

#

so, theres that

velvet patrol
#

There was one moon with a description I don't remember which

#

Oh right sand wind

#

It was "Fauna: Dominated by a few"

karmic wyvern
#

YES

#

ITS SO GOOD

velvet patrol
#

My friend who I was checking out the moons with kept joking like "DOMINATED BY A FEW WHAT!?"
