Kenji's Moons & Weathers

[turbid oar]

Sorry for taking up the thread kenji lol, feel free to continue anything about cr in #1241786100201160784

[steady anchor]

i honestly wished me and my crew could've found the lore for CR, we only managed to reach Oxyde (we loved it, my friend even tried to steal from the merchant lol) and found just a single clipboard

wait actually i should move this to the other thread

oops

[weary sparrow]

people dont talk about my mods and i dont stop... sure recognition is nice but if you dont like making content and only do it for recognition that seems like you could be doing something better with your time

something that makes you happier

[weary sparrow]

although i am taking a break rn to be fair, but thats cus of... gulp... school

[rustic timber]

it's fine, i don't mind a bit of <off-topic>

but (and just to point out since the conversation went there) i do agree that recognition/people talking about one's stuff shouldn't be the drive of a project, because then it's doomed to fail

[turbid oar]

i mean i've done it for a good nearly 2 years, its not recognition thats the drive but the existence of the mod's content for people

[shut knot]

was this change bc I got stuck in the showcase XD

[rustic timber]

actually @rich wave told me a while ago and i forgot, then i saw the showcase and i was like "shit, i forgor" lmaoo

should be a bit smoother now lmao

i hope at least, my sleep deprived ass may have fucked up something while fixing that

[weary sparrow]

true

[rustic timber]

As always my beautiful peeps, if you find any bugs please let me know ❤️

[ripe sandal]

i found a bug under my bed last night

[hollow fable]

does that include ?

[ripe sandal]

but it was wesley chilling

[rustic timber]

wesley is trapped in this moon, i trapped him here

[shut knot]

while I was uploading the new wes video I accidently clicked the inspiration tab

[ripe sandal]

this the worst shi ive ever seen

[rustic timber]

gross and disgusting

[shut knot]

for some reason there is always at least one video about a said "red circle"

if I ever accidently click it

since its where the videos tab used to be

[north nest]

calm down kenji

https://tenor.com/view/cat-eating-kibble-greedy-glutton-gif-420543703723860209

and i used jll scripts i've never used

[weary sparrow]

me terrified of kenjis power

kenji ur the moon guy now

im never making a moon again

[hollow fable]

Kenji youre fired. GOOD NEWS, Beanie! we have a position that just opened up

[weary sparrow]

if i set everything on fire and then freeze everything into an eternal winter will i be fired

https://tenor.com/view/cat-sus-side-eye-cat-side-eye-gif-gif-8417737039518841010

[hollow fable]

nah, that'll be a new moon

[gaunt vortex]

can you update taldor on the taldor saga? :,]

and maybe add kilm in that saga?

[ripe sandal]

taldor is done

it wont get any more updates with moons

[north nest]

Make interiors

[rustic timber]

as cheese said, taldor saga in itself is left there as a legacy thing while i work on the expanded "Kenji's Moons" with progression

https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/rectorado/Kenjis_Moons/

[weary sparrow]

i think i kinda did that once

[rustic timber]

I'll update taldor saga if I make significant game breaking changes

[weary sparrow]

maybe twice

[rustic timber]

for now it's there as a legacy version

[shut knot]

just tried it and holy shit

its reverse titan

[rustic timber]

[shut knot]

was that on purpose or is it a coincidence lol

[rustic timber]

I wouldn't say that the idea was reverse titan, but i wanted to make a vertical moon, since there aren't that many (at least of the ones i've played)

i already did ascension where you go up

and now.... you go down

[shut knot]

ok ok

I just mean reverse titan as in its a decent to 2 very close entrances

difficult part being to get the loot back

and also invertion of snow to lava

[rustic timber]

yeah i see your point lmao

[weary sparrow]

its reigns twin

fire and ice

https://tenor.com/view/shocked-cat-slowed-bird-gif-2022555196927695723

[gaunt vortex]

I see :,]
Will see what interior works for nostalgia and kiri

[rustic timber]

for Nostalgia any of the liminals (liminal house, liminal facility...) (generic's has some weight already)

for Kiri at least for now mansion, SDM, atlantean citadel (it now has a special tag for it and some weights already)

for Kiln any facility-esque, fractured facility, vehicle hangar (has a special tag for it), deepcore mines (the same)...

[ripe sandal]

liminal pools :00000

ngl i think poolrooms would fit well on nostalgia

even if main is not really a poolplace

[rustic timber]

yeah, it could too

[shut knot]

funny that while poolrooms still works v73 did break the water slowing you down

lol

which feel like an improvement ngl

[ripe sandal]

there was that?

i cant even remember

i now liminal version has water sections that slow down

but i dont remember poolrooms having that

[shut knot]

yeah the sections with the blueish water

they slowed you down

unless you walked on the edges

[ripe sandal]

oh i dont remember that happening

might be broken from before v73

you mean like the hallways with water in the center

[shut knot]

ye

[ripe sandal]

bro replied to random message hehe

the hallways have never slowed you down

or at least since v69 when i came back

there might be some other place where you get slowed down there, but hallways dont slow you down

[shut knot]

@rustic timber

how is this

any tweaks?

[rustic timber]

the facility is actually inside a volcano

like you're on the rim of an active volcano

[shut knot]

maybe a boarder of rock?

around the edges

of the lava

like we are looking down into it

lemme make a mockup

[shut knot]

something like this?

id add more detail this is just a mockup

[rustic timber]

yeah, i was doing an ugly ass mockup

but yeah something like that looks really good

https://tenor.com/view/eat-cute-eat-eating-cute-cute-eating-eat-cute-gif-2677701451164457899

[shut knot]

k ill just add more detail to the rock abd fix the lava shading

[shut knot]

?

oops

[ripe sandal]

XD

[rustic timber]

oooooOOO that looks FANTASTIC

thanks turtle

[shut knot]

one more edit

[rustic timber]

more brownish i like

[shut knot]

im sorry I fixed a pixel lol

this one is done

[shut knot]

ok so showcase should be up soon but small issue

when the ambience loops

there is a small glitchy sound

its not super bad

but its noticable

[rustic timber]

ough

ok

i thought i made the loop ok-ish, i'll have to revisit it

[rustic timber]

The fuck was that

Lmao

[shut knot]

what happened

I got pinged

[steady anchor]

the rock goblin

[shut knot]

idk what it is

I opened the chat and my phone sent an audio message for a swcond

[hollow fable]

damn. just finished mine
image deleted
use turtles'. way better than what i did

[shut knot]

I only every make ones for moons im covering so I spend a lot of time on very few

besides the one widerstein one I threw that one for consistancy XD

I could NOT make all the ones you do lol

[snow mural]

Fantastic looking moon

One could say it looks fire

[rustic timber]

ohhhh shoot I forgot to enable going up the ladder with 2 handed items, I think it's not possible to bring them back whoops

I'll update that later today

[snow mural]

I’m thinking a mineshaft elevator outside

So people can ascend

[rustic timber]

no, no elevator, too hot for that

[ashen magnet]

Make sure to set specialCharacterAnimation to false in the InteractTrigger, in addition to the twoHandedItemAllowed field

[rustic timber]

i know I know, I've done it before

https://tenor.com/view/kittykat-ragdoll-cat-cat-with-eyes-emoji-lets-take-a-look-lets-take-a-looksie-gif-1774371662423899160

[rustic timber]

Updated kiln, now the audios loop correctly without the popping sound, changed the ambience one, tweaked the volumes and made the ladders compatible with 2 handed items

https://tenor.com/view/luna-demon-cat-fire-jump-to-fire-gif-24018639

https://tenor.com/view/delete-erase-not-worth-forget-it-clean-slate-gif-8510937

bit late

[gaunt vortex]

kenji, where is the sun?
It makes the solar flare bug out on Kiln

[rustic timber]

uuh if i'm not mistaken i think i have the texture deactivated, i'm not sure how solar flare works

I'll change the way i do it so it doesn't bug out

[autumn forge]

you could make the texture appear on solar flare with one of the JLL weather scripts iirc

[rustic timber]

it's fine, i did activate the SunTexture and deactivated the MeshRenderer and it seems to work

[autumn forge]

ohh yeah

pretty sure by disabling suntexture you're also breaking a part of the daytime animation

but disabling the mesh renderer should work

[thorny crest]

these moons look pretty cool

gonna try them out later

[rustic timber]

[gloomy blaze]

idk if its just me but the dropship spawns outside of the map in Nostalgia

[rustic timber]

WHOOPS HAHAHA

[gloomy blaze]

surprised nobody pointed this out its been 2 weeks 😭

[rustic timber]

i'll check and push a hotfix, thanks for noticing

[rustic timber]

2 weeks? it's been like a month or so

lmaoo

[gloomy blaze]

oh i meant as the last update but if this has been since release im even more surprised nobody noticed this 😭

[gaunt vortex]

Uhm... Idk why...
But I'm getting HUGE lagspikes on Kiln when a steam vapor generates :,]

and let me tell you, my pc is not bad

[rustic timber]

well to be fair people tend to buy in the company moon, but i'll fix that

[rustic timber]

hmmm is there anything in the logs?

[gaunt vortex]

no red logs

[rustic timber]

weird, i'll take a look

[gaunt vortex]

just to make sure, check it with Hurricane weather from wesley's moons

it happened with that

[rustic timber]

weird question, did you have imperium installed?

[gaunt vortex]

no

[rustic timber]

ok so i'm checking my project and the ship is surely not there (it was weird because i always set the dropship first to not forget) lemme test ingame

[rustic timber]

mainly because i had lag spikes when testing with imperium, but not without it, i'm doing some runs just in case

ok nostalgia's ship's fixed (i made an oopsie with the animation)

testing this now

[royal bay]

florida

[royal bay]

i once ordered a car on nostalgia and wondered where the fuck it was

[rustic timber]

SORRY GUYS LMAOO

[rustic timber]

doing this rn, nothing out of the ordinary, nor frame drops on my end

(staying in the middle of 3 valves to see if my fps would drop when activated)

Nostalgia's dropship hotfix uploaded peeps you can continue your shopping spree in summerland

[north nest]

imagine buying outside company moon

[snow mural]

Can you fix ascension?

[rustic timber]

Ascension is FINE

[snow mural]

its broken

[rustic timber]

Now that I fixed Nostalgia do think I made an oopsie with Row, I'll have to check

[rustic timber]

What do you mean

[snow mural]

none of the other moons have the same layout and name

[rustic timber]

IM GOING TO PURGE YOU

[steady anchor]

[rustic timber]

Oh ok, I'll check that out sorry for the flash bang, I might have messed with the sky

[gloomy blaze]

https://tenor.com/view/ash-baby-gif-7280845142657635823

[rustic timber]

pushing a hotfix now........................

[gloomy blaze]

ty my eyes are safe now

[north nest]

LMAO

[rustic timber]

for some reason whenever I change skyboxes on 1 moon it decides to change all of them, despite being clearly separated. Unity being unity i suppose

[ashen magnet]

Gotta make sure to create a new volume profile every time

Or else they share it

[rustic timber]

oh i did

[ashen magnet]

Or like uhh

Gotta make sure the overrides are in the actual file

It's weird

[rustic timber]

but for some reason, at random times, 1 rogue volume decides to change from exposure to multiply, but i just checked every moon and it SEEMS it didn't change so

[ashen magnet]

Hmm

but i can still perform

lmao

[alpine forge]

oughh fucking sucks

[alpine forge]

i cant tell if that's a good or bad thing but I hope you get better !!!!

[rustic timber]

it's............ uh
well
i can still work, is it good? probably not but i have to do it

[alpine forge]

that's what I mean yeah!!!

you can work. but that's also bad cuz you have to work while sick

[rustic timber]

that's just life i suppose

at least i got sick today and i have 2 free days so yeah

[weary sparrow]

kenji, if you want positive thoughts just think about how you dont have to pay for healthcare

🥲

[weary sparrow]

they have taxes factored in neatly to their purchases too

yes they pay more but like

i dont think it outweighs the american cost

ive seen horrible costs for small checkups here

CodeRebirth irl project

[rustic timber]

row update yay fixes

• Made the sky a bit brighter early on during the day
• Tweaked the fog and added a bit more fog to the bottom of the pit
• Fixed the sound of the missiles that kept going for a bit after impact
• Fixed the looping sound of the fan

[rustic timber]

so since beanie did it too, i might as well leave it here,

i did make a ko-fi so if you really enjoy what i do and want to support me a lil bit you can go here: https://ko-fi.com/itiskenji

regardless i will try to keep making nice content your youse peeps

[weary sparrow]

well that was fast

https://files.catbox.moe/gsdwft.gif

[rustic timber]

i did have it for a while hehe

[weary sparrow]

noo it didnt embed

[rustic timber]

but i didn't post it here

[weary sparrow]

we should twin pin them

[weary sparrow]

wow we are twins

guys throw sheckles into kenjis eyes

maybe some rhinestones

[rustic timber]

https://tenor.com/view/hello-street-cat-gif-12254734576384811007

wow, his eyes are a big target

[rustic timber]

wow... meanie

[weary sparrow]

No its good

[steady anchor]

the fungus

[rustic timber]

I'm doing a round of optimizations on kiln at the moment (just to update you guys)

[shut knot]

did you fix the audio issue?

[rustic timber]

yea that was fixed in the last update!

[rustic timber]

i ended up changing it to another ambience that did fit better (but thanks to your suggestion i also fixed row's problem with a certain audio)

[rustic timber]

ok so jacob helped me identify the point of origin for kiln's problem so we're trying to fix it asap

[sterile raptor]

Game crashing was funny though lolol

I was so sad though cus I was so excited to show it off on stream, multiple solo tests with no issues then Multi and it explodes

[rustic timber]

yeah, i'm so very sorry (having networked events it's hard, but let this be a learning experience lmao)

[sterile raptor]

Lol dw about it ahaha

Mistakes happen to everyone

[ashen magnet]

Networking's fucky

[weary sparrow]

what was wrong so i dont do it myself in the future but on a much larger scale and worse

because i WILL somehow do it

[ashen magnet]

Just be mindful of what's running individually for every player

Host should send something to clients, but if clients can each trigger the sending of said thing, it'll happen multiple times

[rustic timber]

yeah, that's been taken care of, now i have a bigger issue because zeekers decided to fuck with me

[ashen magnet]

[rustic timber]

basically zeekers decided to put a reverbtrigger under the ship, making half of my moon laggy for free!

[weary sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/nervous-cat-gulp-scared-nervous-gulp-gif-13262341033260262198

oh boy i sure hope that isnt the case for the landmine variants in vehicle hangar

[ashen magnet]

Should be fiiiiine
-# Probably maybe, most likely, maybe

I can double check the networking though

[weary sparrow]

pretty sure its fine

[rustic timber]

SIGH

[turbid oar]

most landmine-like scripts from lethal mods actually trigger the damage code like 4 times on clients, but no one notices because who the fuck survives a landmine

[weary sparrow]

i thinknits

[ashen magnet]

I do have local toggle field for my scripts so they'll only affect a single client

[weary sparrow]

none of mine outright kill

two of them dont do damage

the one that does do damage is quite slow

[turbid oar]

yeah, all you gotta do is mostly just trigger on client and see if anything happens more than normal, simple enough to test

[ashen magnet]

I mean yeah if it doesn't kill you comically fast in multiplayer it's probably fine

[weary sparrow]

i did run over a couple of them as client

just to test for syncing

seemed fine

[turbid oar]

probably fine then

[weary sparrow]

its fun to step on them its like pressing bubble wrap

[ashen magnet]

Actually you're using JLL for the mine triggering itself right?

Like to detect da player entering

[weary sparrow]

i mean normal landmines are bubble wrap with heavy reprecussions

these just have less reprecussions

[weary sparrow]

yeah

wait

no

my bad

[ashen magnet]

I ought double check but it's probably client-sided too

[weary sparrow]

im using zeekers interact trigger

which then activates a JLL sync

[ashen magnet]

o

[weary sparrow]

and then that handles everything else

theres only ONE jll sync

i made sure of that

[ashen magnet]

Actually yeah it's probably fine

[weary sparrow]

otherwise the evil loop of recursion happens

[ashen magnet]

I do network stuff myself

[weary sparrow]

and doom and despair follows

[ashen magnet]

PlayerSensor.CheckObjectsInRegion() is networked

[weary sparrow]

i just had the JLL sync run your hinder script, and only for the ice mine

it worked for clients in testing so

https://files.catbox.moe/gsdwft.gif

[weary sparrow]

genuinely its gambling if this embeds or not its like 7/10

sometimes it just refuses

[turbid oar]

discord things

[ashen magnet]

Although I think I did tell you to set that to local too so it's likely fine

[turbid oar]

recently discord just hasnt been marking read threads as read

[weary sparrow]

i did i think

[turbid oar]

and it annoys me looking back at the same thread like 10 times over everytime thinking someone sent something new

[ashen magnet]

[weary sparrow]

yeah i think that happened once to me today too

"oh a beanie thread mes- wait what did someone delete it"

[turbid oar]

yeah that's also been happening for so long

[ashen magnet]

Funny discord prank

GHOSTS

[rustic timber]

ok so kiln update!

• Lowered the volume from the pipes
• Lowered the max particles that come out from the pipes
• Removed the particle collission from the one pipe that had them
• Instanced some textures/materials that were used repeatedly
• Fixed the pipes and thunder event to be on host call only instead of on all clients (Thank you @stiff imp)
• Fixed the textures on the walls, now it looks a bit nicer (Thanks Jacob (again))
• Reduced the time between pipe events to take into account that change
• Reduced the time between thunder events to take into account that change too.
• Optimized size a bit
• Optimized lights render distance

now lingering problem: there's a reverbtrigger that spawns under the ship that is exactly where some terrain is, becoming laggy when walking there. Since it's not in the scene itself i can't deactivate it temporarily while the ship's on the moon without code (i can't do that)

so in the meantime i recommend ReverbTriggerFix (https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/JacobG5/ReverbTriggerFix/) with the experimental option enabled as a half assed fix to that problem

i'll... uh... ask around if someone nice and beautiful help me make some custom code for kiln so it does the deactivation thingy hehe

anyways have a nice day peeps

i think this cats name is pilbert

[rustic timber]

that's a FANTASTIC NAME

[thick badger]

I decided to check out Kiln, as I would like a volcano moon for my modpack but previously have not found one that scratches my itch. I think this moon is very well-done!

I like its vertical design with split paths, I like its general aesthetic, and I like the steam pipe gimmick. I usually am not a big fan of gimmicks, and dislike a lot of the ones on Wesley’s moons, but I think Kiln is an example of a good gimmick alongside Deadlock and Harbringer.

If I were to suggest improvements I have two in mind. The first is more of a fix, which is that the ladder on the pipes (below the front of the ship) has odd player positioning when climbing it, I would love to see that fixed. The second is that the pipe obstacle in front of the Fire Exit staircase should be raised slightly so you can crouch under it, it is just barely too short right now.

This moon is up there with DemonMae’s Praetor as the best volcano moon imo, and I was hoping to have a non-DemonMae moon for this too. If I can make room in my modpack for Kiln I will make sure to add it! One more thing, I do not know what the golden fish thing is all about, what is that?

[rustic timber]

thanks for the complete review, i'm glad that you enjoyed it!!

i'll look into the issues you said, the weird positioning on the ladder is mainly because it is a bit tilted (and the game hate tilted ladders)

the other might be tricky since all the pipes are connected to each other, rising it a bit is going to be a bit complicated but i'll see what i can do

about the gimmick, i kinda treat it as its own "outside enemy" (since kiln does not spawn any)

[thick badger]

I would honestly prefer if the ladders were vertically mounted to the rock face like in vanilla, it gives aesthetic consistency

[thick badger]

Ye, I figured

[shut knot]

Vulcan is still my fav lava moon

[rustic timber]

and the golden fish..... who knows

[shut knot]

Kiln is prob like no 3

[rustic timber]

we just don't know

[thick badger]

I have not played Vulcan, should I? It just does not have the vanilla aesthetic based on its page

[shut knot]

(ground texture is better quality now this was the LE version)

comparison

best use of rising lava

changes the whole route of the map

[thick badger]

This is good but I do prefer the more vanilla-faithful approach of Kiln personally

[shut knot]

(kinda funny the music here is from doom eternal)

[thick badger]

Ye that too

[rustic timber]

fun fact, kiln's original gimick was going to be rising lava from 10PM-Midnight and you would hear "lava is rising, please leave the facility immediatly" and you would have to go up fast

[shut knot]

tho its very fitting and I only recognized it bc im a doom nut

[rustic timber]

but i changed it to the pipes hehe

[thick badger]

I thought that the pipe that runs beside the ship would lead somewhere. If you wanted to expand the moon at all, making that pipe lead to a small path with a second Fire Exit would be interesting

[rustic timber]

mayhaps, depends, i have yet to test it properly in multiplayer and hear more feedback to see if it's necessary for the gameplay loop

I haven't done any gameplay balance pass yet

[shut knot]

reminded me of a moon concept I had ages ago
Large mountain where to get to the entrance its almost like climbing Everest
favoring the cruiser but would be viable on foot, imagining its more about the journey than the destination, having a small interior with smaller bits of precious loot but with the path there and back being treacherous. the idea would end with the facility being above the clouds with under the clouds being a dark and rough snowstorm but once you hit the peak its sunny as you are above the storm, being able to look out upon the vast amount of clouds (this paragraph is old so this is kinda like ascention but a MUCH larger scale)

visuals of being on top(above the storm)

the nightmare storm beneth the clouds

[thick badger]

Only thing that bothers me is not being able to crouch under that pipe I mentioned. Also, being able to climb the ladders with 2-handed items is jarring, I personally would just have a path to the ship other than the ladders. You actually could use that pipe next to the ship I mentioned, changing it to snake along the rock face such that you can parkour on it to the ship (like Beanie’s Storage Complex interior if you played that)

I actually like this idea for the pipe more than the second Fire Exit

[rustic timber]

I'll ponder on it

[thick badger]

Ye, that’s all I can ask for

[shut knot]

lore idea of the moon was some experimental weather device entrapped the planet in eternal blizzards

[rustic timber]

it is time to moon turtle

this is your chance

[weary sparrow]

ponder sonder…

[thick badger]

I just am fixated on the ladders because if they were changed with my ideas to be vanilla-adjacent, Kiln would be a perfect moon for me. It is that close…

[thick badger]

Speaking of Storage Complex, did you ever fix traps spawning out of bounds on it?

[weary sparrow]

havent touched it in a while and probably wont any time soon…

[shut knot]

I cant even figure out one scrap item rn

[thick badger]

Unfortunate

[rustic timber]

moon is easier!

[shut knot]

how?

[rustic timber]

trust

follow the tutorial...... #dev-moons .....

[tired mica]

Yes Moons are WAY easier.

[rustic timber]

see, the goat himself came here to tell you turtle

[ripe sandal]

is your moment turtling

[rustic timber]

I'll look into it but I make no promises

I can surely make the ladders straighter (just lightly tilted, so the game won't look weird going up/down)

I'm waiting for someone's help to fix a vanilla problem on the moon, so next update won't be at least until I get a response from them

[thick badger]

Sounds good

[alpine forge]

https://tenor.com/view/big-ears-cat-big-ears-cat-cat-with-big-ears-gif-27709709

Can a monty know

[rustic timber]

@alpine forge it's basically this

jacob told me it <should> be an easy fix with some code

so I asked mrov about it, but he was a lil busy, so I'll talk to him later to see if we figure something out

[rustic timber]

me quieres ayudar paquito

[ashen magnet]

It do be rather trivial, but uhhhhhhh

[rustic timber]

There's this reverb trigger under the ship in the sample scene that is making kiln miserable

[ashen magnet]

What do you mean walkin there?

[rustic timber]

You know that reverb trigger under the ship, the one that determines when you jump out of the ship while taking off

That one is always active

And lucky me, it coincides with parts of the terrain in kiln, so walking there makes the FPS go brr

If only that reverb could be deactivated while landed and reactivated on take off it would be godsent

[turbid oar]

you might not want that depending on what that reverb's purpose is

[ashen magnet]

Ye

[ashen magnet]

Their purpose is puzzling

(Usually)

[rustic timber]

It's purpose is detecting the player when jumping off the ship while landing/taking off (at least that's what Jacob said)(since it's underground the whole day, and parented to the ship)

[ashen magnet]

I can look into it, but I do be tweaking some stuff with my library at the moment

Also with LLL

[turbid oar]

lol

[turbid oar]

hm ic, that could mean it's fairly important, ill take a look, im loading samplescene rn

[rustic timber]

Its not a big deal, you do your stuffs, for now ReverbTriggerFix with experimental solves it

[turbid oar]

you know, whenever it wants to load

[rustic timber]

Because it's not constantly triggering

[ashen magnet]

I know there's the out of bounds one for if you jump off the ship in orbit

Although it might not even be a reverb trigger now that I think about it

[rustic timber]

Yeah, I just want, if possible, to turn it off only during the day if it's not necessary lmao

[turbid oar]

JLL doesnt have a trigger for when the ship is landed and when the ship is taking off?

oh right actually you wouldnt be able to detect the GO

cuz samplescene hmm

[rustic timber]

Iirc what Jacob said is that it is the one responsible to detect when you jump off the ship while taking off, so the player don't get teleported back or something

[ashen magnet]

Could be a script placed in the scene though

[rustic timber]

That's my main issue

[rustic timber]

That's what I want

[ashen magnet]

I've done it for similar stuff

[turbid oar]

yeah but how do you disable something in samplescene if you're in the moon scene?

unless you mean putting it into samplescene

[rustic timber]

You'd have to reference it in code I suppose

I don't know these things

[ashen magnet]

StartOfRound (and similar) do be in the sample scene

[turbid oar]

thats alright, thats what paco me jacob etc are for

[ashen magnet]

Could just grab the instance and go to the root, then search for the thing

[turbid oar]

yeah but i was trying to think of a way to do it without a lookup if possible

but it might not be

[turbid oar]

and by lookup i mean without .Find

@rustic timber do you know what the reverb trigger object is called?

[rustic timber]

I'll have to check, give me a moment to open the project

[turbid oar]

sure

[ashen magnet]

I'll give you 30 seconds, final offer, take it or leave it
-# (/j)

[turbid oar]

cuz im looking and these seem fine mostly

[rustic timber]

There's an invisible one under the ship

[turbid oar]

the FallOffShip?

[rustic timber]

I think so

[turbid oar]

that one's pretty far from your ship, that one's causing you issues?

[rustic timber]

yes exactly

mainly because Kiln is vertical and small

[turbid oar]

ic

[rustic timber]

and usually moons are not like that i suppose

[ashen magnet]

Is that one even active when landed though

[rustic timber]

yes

it indeed is

[turbid oar]

does LLL support custom landing animations paco?

i know it didnt but idk if you fixed it

[ashen magnet]

I uhhhhhhhhh have no idea

I have not tested them

[turbid oar]

did you try to fix it

[ashen magnet]

It does have the features in ExtendedLevel

[turbid oar]

cuz its commented out

[ashen magnet]

I have not

[turbid oar]

okay then yeah its still commented out

[ashen magnet]

[turbid oar]

i feel annoying recommending this as a method since its just gonna sound like im shilling dawnlib but you could edit the landing animation to turn off that trigger and edit the leaving animation to turn it back on

either that or some scripting shenanigans if someone's up to do it for ya

paco might also look into the landing and leaving stuff but idk if he wants to, but its a possibility

iirc batby's issue with it was that he believed the patcher incorrectly exports the animation for the ships stuff so anyone replacing the animation would have a faulty animation

(first frame was missing)

which i think is actually true but the only thing i've noticed go missing is that the ship lights when you're being fired are pink

[ashen magnet]

Wacky

[turbid oar]

(only if you're using them while leaving and landing as a replacement to leaving and landing, if that makes sense)

[ashen magnet]

A quick script for it do be pretty trivial

[turbid oar]

reason i noticed this is because on oxyde the ship can crash land onto the ground if you mess up, and i turn on those lights, which makes em pink

[ashen magnet]

Lights that plink

[turbid oar]

yeah a script to access objects in samplescene would be pretty trivial

i just like thinking of creative solutions lol

[ashen magnet]

I mean ye

Understandable

[rustic timber]

for the moment imma try to lure some unsuspecting coder to make me a tiny script because i do be lazy to port anything at least for the moment

i know that referencing stuffs from the ship scene is """""easy""""" (i've seen mrov doing it)

so in the worst case scenario i get people saying my moon is unoptimized thanks to zeekyboy

[turbid oar]

oh i mean there's a straight reference in startofround to the ship, it's super easy

like all the code thats needed for your script is just:

StartOfRound.Instance.ShipAnimatorObject.Find("ReverbTriggers/LeavingShipTriggers/FallOffShip").gameObject.SetActive(false);

dont ask why the ship object is called the ship animator object when its not the animator

there is a worry though, im not sure how this changes with mods that add different ships

[rustic timber]

i could have that tiny script and have it turn on or off on landing and on takeoff with a jll script i think

[turbid oar]

presumably it shouldnt

[rustic timber]

true, i'll test with the most used ones

just in case

[turbid oar]

yeah exactly, honestly the ideal script is written a bit different where its not hardcoded and you can choose whether to disable or enable it but that's also just a minute of writing code at most, it's preferrably bundled within something like JLL or Itolib since they already handle that stuff, im sure someone will get around to it when they can

oh also this is how i grabbed the actual string path, when you click on an object it tells you at the bottom of the hierarchy

there's also this option i have to copy hierarchy when i right click a gameobject, but i've never seen anyone else have it so i dont know where i got it from

[rustic timber]

aah nice to know

[quick carbon]

WHAT

THAT WAS ALWAYS THERE?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[turbid oar]

Not for everyone but it is for me

[quick carbon]

crazy

that would've made creating the ship so much easier 🥲

[ashen magnet]

That trigger is indeed running FindObjectsOfType<> every frame for everyone, for each player that's inside it

usePreset being set to a value that isn't -1 will do that

[rustic timber]

Updates!

Kiln 1.0.5

• Added collisions to the steam valves
• You can now properly crouch under the pipe next to the fire exit
• Added a new way to go up to the ship when carrying 2 handed scraps
• Disabled the ability to go up ladders with 2 handed scraps
• Tweaked scrap spawns to accomodate the changes
• Tweaked inside enemies spawns
• Fixed lag produced by one of the ship's Reverb Triggers (Thanks mrov)
• Changed the History portion in when checking the moons info
  -# Since there's new ways to go up without the need of the ladders (mainly for the 2 handed scraps), they are reverted as how they usually are in vanilla, I'll keep a close eye on how it plays.

Nostalgia 1.1.4
Reverted the skies to a gradient-base one
Tweaked the stormy sky colors

-# Kiln 1.0.6 (shame update)

⦁ Fixed one of the valves effects being always on by mistake
⦁ FIxed README

[thick badger]

That was fast, I will check it out tonight

[rustic timber]

i will eat them all

also i think one of the ladders have the animation a bit broken, but i think i'll fix it a lil later (since it does not impact the gameplay)

[snow mural]

If you ever make a scrap mod you should add ascension in a snow globe

[weary sparrow]

add me in a snow glob and im shivering and banging on the glass pleading to be let out so i can go and eat food

[rustic timber]

I'll add the same voice lines as the beanie figurine

[rustic timber]

not a half bad idea, but for now I don't plan on making scraps (I only made 1 custom scrap for nostalgia and a variant of a vanilla one for row)

[weary sparrow]

yes

i can send you the ones that welsey didnt use

muffled inside snowglobe DONE LEAVE ME HEEERE

[thick badger]

Alright I checked out the new Kiln

https://tenor.com/view/its-peak-old-man-shaking-head-gif-3938163323164042530

Well done Kenji

[rustic timber]

glad you liked it hehe

I will keep an eye on how it plays once I do actually play it (the curse of the modder, make it and don't play it) but overall I'm happy with the change

Not too much but adds a bit of new pathing

[thick badger]

Can’t really have too much of that

A lot of the best moons imo have that “playground” feel with a ton of viable paths

Jokes on you im sleeping right now

[rustic timber]

in due time, I need my brain juices to rest and bring me a new idea

-# (I do have an idea but I'm lazy)

[rustic timber]

Question, since you tried it, did you try it with other people? Did the valves explode with too much frequency? (because i want to tune everything a bit)

[thick badger]

No, I was just running around in Imperium and checking out all the differences from the previous map

This weekend I can try to play it for real and get back to you on a live setting

From what I saw the pipes were fine. Given how there are no outdoor enemies, them slowing down transfers a decent amount to make up for it is expected

Plus the whole thing can be cheesed with Jetpack since this is a higher tier moon

[rustic timber]

Yeah, if you ever play it with friends try to keep an eye. It's a bit difficult to debug networked stuff alone hahaha

[rustic timber]

[rustic timber]

oughhh guys i'm cooking really nice i think

but i'm so tired, maybe tomorrow we have a new moon in our hands... who knows

[snow mural]

If you’re tired you should rest

Unless the new moon is ascension 2, in which case keep working

[weary sparrow]

It’s ascension 0.3193

that doesnt mean its worse than ascension

It means it shares tiny bits of ascensionits DNA

(its not ascension two im sorry toastnits)

or is it…

[snow mural]

Well I mean kiln may as well be ascension 2 since it’s in a volcano

Ascension cinematic universe

[rustic timber]

Ok so since I'm reaching my ninth moon and my pack is reaching near 300mb i'm going to take another approach when updating the pack/moons. I'm going (to try) to stop making pack updates for just 1 moon unless I deem the update absolutely necessary and instead update 2 or more at the same time when I encounter small bugs or tweaks for moons.

so there's that

i'll be releasing my new moon soon™

[rustic timber]

very city and very moon

[smoky vessel]

I know i haven't said anything in a while because i have been a bit out of Lethal but since i always keep your moons in my pack i am wondering: How do you always release such bangers?

[tropic osprey]

RIGHT?!

[smoky vessel]

It legit feels like every moon is just a small story in itself and i love that so much, i feel like it shows the passion

[north nest]

so... what kind of suprise is that

[rustic timber]

you'll have to look for it!

[rustic timber]

hehe thank you, i don't even know what to say

i just throw stuff around and stuff happens

[smoky vessel]

Thinking about it, i honestly wish that there was a way to have a visual solar system on the terminal where you can chose which moon to go to. Imagine what people with story building to their moons would be able to do.

[rustic timber]

once i finish making the moons i have planned, i'll try to make it an image that somewhat depicts where everything is relative to each other

[smoky vessel]

I can't wait to see that!

I will have to give Hollowed a try later tonight and see what the moon is like.

[snow mural]

Ascension updated, we're eating good tonight

[north nest]

that's a good question actually
how does he make moons, and every single one turns out to be a banger

[rustic timber]

the answer: energy drinks, lack of sleep, unity, despair and mspaint

tbh, only taldor could be remade (first moon, I get it, but it's just the lowest tier of them all imo) but post-lua saga is just yummers

[north nest]

mspaint for what?

and idk, you seem to enjoy it once you come up with an idea

[rustic timber]

i use it to concept the layouts quickly

i do enjoy it, if i didn't i wouldn't make them!

[smoky vessel]

I think you have a point but honestly there is something about it i just like, maybe a bit of nostalgia (no pun intended). It shows how Keni's journey to becoming this good started.

[north nest]

ah yeah, I would also make poorly drawn layouts for that
actually I would just follow what my mind will lead me
a center (or corner of the map) and wavy lines for each fire exit and main (or set up an fire exit right behind the main for funnies)

[tropic osprey]

You need to teach me that lmao

[north nest]

(I said what I would do for a design and layout lmao)

[rustic timber]

uuuuh i don't know how but i can try

https://tenor.com/view/stan-twt-funny-reaction-meme-cat-kiss-gif-11351227363082477808

[tropic osprey]

I’ll need to see how you make a moon concept and then i’ll be good lol

[smoky vessel]

And then we finally get the dojo.

concepting is for NERDS

real ones wing it and cry when it sucks

[smoky vessel]

[rustic timber]

what i tend to do first is think of the vibe or the "concept" as in what do i want this moon to be? or the main visual call

and then i start making layouts

for hollowed, for example, i had the concept written on kiln's info

[smoky vessel]

Foreshadowing

[weary sparrow]

i love subtle foreskin

i mean

foreshadowing

[rustic timber]

BEANIE

[weary sparrow]

gup

[smoky vessel]

[weary sparrow]

I cant remember if ive foreshadowed any of my moons

ive got all the lore but its not written anywhere

[rustic timber]

yeah, and i said k i want to depict an exoplanet that had an extinction event, with a massive chasm in the middle, since it was a planet that used Kiln as source for energy, it's only natural that it would have massive cities or people living there

and

tadah

it writes itself

[hollow fable]

not my proudest. butt

[clever jungle]

Kenji, Hollowed has just the right amount of silliness for such a serious moon. I especially like the tree. Another awesome moon to twist into my pack.

[rustic timber]

thank you!!!!! but i might have to ask... what tree...?

OH

i think i know which one

[clever jungle]

Outside fire.

[rustic timber]

[woven smelt]

[ripe sandal]

[ripe sandal]

[kind viper]

Most suit mods don't include prices, just figured for a modpack that has priced suits, it would be good

[woven smelt]

I dont never imagened that benath the surfice, there was a dark side that went far beyond the mod they made

[ripe sandal]

its not dark at all

its just how life is

[rustic timber]

Lua + snowfall looks really good (TW French)

[thick badger]

Glad to see big fun lobbies like that are still being made

[chrome juniper]

Yeah it's our weekly activity

[ashen magnet]

Oh I did add Lua to the default Snowfall/Blizzard blacklist since it don't make much sense to have snow there lol, but you likely have the previous defaults in the WR config

(Also TW French 💀)

[chrome juniper]

I manually added snowfall to a lot of moons that didn't have it because we're theming the mod pack around winter

It doesn't make that much sense to get snow on the moon but it looks cool

[ashen magnet]

I mean ye

[rustic timber]

i didn't understand a word but that looks really good not going to lie lmao

[snow mural]

Tell ideas to stop marinating people, I’m sure they don’t like it

[rustic timber]

they deserved it

[rustic timber]

did a bit of a rebalance to Nostalgia (i still think that it's a bit overtuned but i'll keep an eye on it) + other changes:

⦁ Optimized the volumetric clouds
⦁ Fixed sudden low FPS after 3PM
⦁ Changed the skies to a gradient-base one (yes, again)
⦁ Changed fog values
⦁ Reduced a bit the size
⦁ Tweaked the sun's color to not resemble an error texture
⦁ Fixed the interiors being lit up when a gradient sky was in place
⦁ Rebalanced the interior loot weight/dungeon size/power numbers (it was a bit too profitable)
⦁ For that: Increased the difficulty rating from C- to C

https://tenor.com/view/hello-street-cat-gif-12254734576384811007

[weary sparrow]

gulp..

[rustic timber]

ok so i have the concept of 2 moons in the work and the early ideas for a Taldor rework to get it in line with the newer maps

[north nest]

[rustic timber]

but as I have probably said before it's not really a priority until I get my hands on progression or I finish the moons I have in mind

So it's going to be a while before that

Thought I may leave old taldor in the old saga for people that like the current one (And rename it something similar) but probably won't have an standalone
