so what ever is a fruit tag can get added to the waffle for example

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 6:57 PM

#

the tag system is underutilized for sure

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 6:57 PM

#

pretty sure it has plans for the future tho

#

we can see recently its started to be used a bit more in vanilla

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 6:57 PM

#

but I still think there would be a benefit to merging all the inventory Item subtypes or making the weapon/clothing/container/food behaviors a referenced object so you can mix and match features

#

I forgot this was a thing, but turning items into weapons makes the loader toss them out

#

probably for the sake of avoiding bogus variables

#

but being able to grab so many things as weapons is just a better experience

#

personal opinion of course

#

and I can't make purses a weapon because it would break the bag functionality

#

unless I store the original and swap it on unequip

#

which I don't think would work very well

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 7:01 PM

@sour island

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 7:02 PM

#

that the TS stuff?

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 7:02 PM

#

Yeha i

#

i made a command line tool

#

to create and manage a project

#

#

Not completed but when i finishes everything and feels like its ready ill show how to use this

ornate locust Jul 25, 2022, 7:04 PM

#

Where do i get the zdoc-lua.jar?

#

and zomboid.jar too

cosmic condor Jul 25, 2022, 7:05 PM

#

did you skip reading the tutorial? lol

ornate locust Jul 25, 2022, 7:05 PM

#

cosmic condor did you skip reading the tutorial? lol

i dont think so

#

i followed every step

#

i got the intelliJ IDEA and kept following everything

#

could you send me a screenshot of where i could find it?

cosmic condor Jul 25, 2022, 7:08 PM

#

hmm lemme check the tutorial again

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 7:09 PM

#

there's a step about moving the files out of generated

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 7:12 PM

#

ornate locust could you send me a screenshot of where i could find it?

depending where you setup your capsid project directory it will be in a directory named lib

#

if after the setupWorkspace config completion its not there, chance are there was an error in one of the task

#

Most of the time it would be caused by the java version used

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 7:17 PM

#

I wonder if that folder could be generated ready to go

#

could even pull the version number

#

make a new directory

cosmic condor Jul 25, 2022, 7:18 PM

#

What is getting me confused is when I create a new project, it shows me this

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 7:18 PM

#

odd

cosmic condor Jul 25, 2022, 7:18 PM

#

and I have no idea how to go on, because it differs from the tutorial

#

now, I forgot how did I complete the tutorial lol

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 7:19 PM

#

#

My tutorial only explain using gradle

#

Even tho it would be possible using groovy and maven but me personally idk about those xD

#

im noob with java environment

cosmic condor Jul 25, 2022, 7:22 PM

#

I can't even tell what are those 🙃

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 7:22 PM

#

Yeah me neither its ok

#

lol

#

Gotta accept that we dont know everything cause there too much to learn in this world

#

brain overheating sometime

cosmic condor Jul 25, 2022, 7:25 PM

#

@sour island now I have a problem like this guy

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 7:26 PM

#

sounds like that guy didn't read lmao

#

you can configure it if you hit yes

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 7:27 PM

#

i only use shareX for gif making disable all screenshot stuff

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 7:27 PM

#

I have mine not even make a local file

#

stays as a clipboard

#

exception is for gifs

#

which sometimes need editing

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 7:28 PM

#

i prefer https://app.prntscr.com/en/index.html for my screenshot its a bit lighter than shareX

#

But shareX is amazing for the video and gif stuff

winter bolt Jul 25, 2022, 7:29 PM

#

why do people even use stuff like that for normal screenshots instead of the builtin ones lol

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 7:29 PM

#

hum built in doesnt have much features

#

like selecting part of the screen

#

adding quick arrows or shapes

#

#

macOS has a better printscreen vanilla feature but bill gate dont care

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 7:32 PM

#

I think sharex has that too tbh

#

but yeah it has got alot of bells and whistles

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 7:32 PM

#

yeah the context menu when you right click the icon takes 3 pages lol

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 7:33 PM

all their liquids are interchangeable with food

that is interesting. i was doing this in the first place because i was getting a little sick of living off of 1 fruit salad a day to keep the same weight. it felt entirely ridiculous

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:07 PM

#

I agree, but I think it stems from calories being added after alot of other features

#

while timed actions burn calories alot of basic activity does not

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:09 PM

#

With some testing I noted that my character, while being quite active, burns about 900 calories per day, and I felt like I needed to see if I could do something about that.

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:09 PM

#

What do you mean about being active?

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:09 PM

#

moving around, looting, carrying zombie corpses around

#

things that should be burning a good bit

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:10 PM

#

you can see the timed action rates based on file names

#

I think jogging sprinting does change it too

#

but I'd have to check

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:11 PM

I see that yeah, now I know that only timed action and running really burns some, but either way

jogging does yes, I know by watching it in debug and running around.

seems like wearing extra clothes burns calories too?

#

aslo weight/80 is interesting

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:14 PM

#

I think 80 is considered normal so it modifies what you burn if you are above or below normal

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:14 PM

#

mhmm i think they fixed the female balance in .73

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:14 PM

#

that's good

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:14 PM

#

there is not as much of difference anymore

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:15 PM

#

My really overly simple solution was just going to be to have it steal like 1000 calories from me every time the day ticks over.

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:16 PM

#

orrr just use nutrition tweaker and make it go down faster 😛

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:18 PM

#

you could tack on more burning in update

#

especially for climbing

#

that seems unfair

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:18 PM

#

Yeah that mod actually might solve my problem by itself lol though I wonder if it works the same for single player, and also it uses the sandbox settings so not sure if I can put it in an ongoing playthrough

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:19 PM

#

also is it me or the inventory weight not accounted for?

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:19 PM

#

Just from testing, inventory weight doesn't appear to be

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:19 PM

#

does moving normally?

#

like walking? sneaking?

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:19 PM

#

only running/jogging it appeared

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:19 PM

#

which is basically walking in squat

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:20 PM

#

and timed action ofc

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:20 PM

#

all PZ players going to have some nice buns from all that squating

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:20 PM

#

what do you mean tack on more burning in update?

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:21 PM

#

OnPlayerUpdate

#

depending on when stats are calculated

#

you could add onto the burning rate

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:22 PM

#

for singleplayer you can use https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2670674997 but you will have to go back to main menu and load again for the setting change to take effect

Steam Workshop::Change Sandbox Options

#

also once you are satisfied with the settings you can disable the mod from your save game to remove the context menu (for Change Sandbox Options mod)

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:24 PM

#

Thank you. I'll play around with your mod a bit it looks like it might do exactly what I want already.

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:25 PM

#

if you test as admin in a host server, make sure to remove godmode as the values wont move otherwise

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:25 PM

#

I was going to use it in a solo sandbox

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:26 PM

#

If you use debug mode you will be able to get the UI to see how fast it decrease at least for the time you set it up

#

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:26 PM

#

right, ok

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:27 PM

#

you can also use this mod to check the values without debug https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2833096579

Steam Workshop::Weight Scale

#

rewrite from an old Eris mod

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:28 PM

#

oh nice

#

Oh you did water dispenser, I use that all the time lol

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:32 PM

#

ya i wish this was vanilla cause i hate my graphics

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:36 PM

#

I might write a passive calorie mod

#

if you wanna tweak it lol

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:36 PM

#

It's an area of the game I think needs some love overall for sure

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:39 PM

#

nutrition's update is called before onplayerupdate

#

I think that's good? I guess one would have to redo some math eitherway

#

private void updateWeight() {

#

aw

#

oh it's both private

private void updateCalories() {

#

w e l l

#

should take me about 15 minutes after I eat

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:41 PM

#

nice

#

I'm poking around in the code of the nutrition tweaker mod

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:43 PM

#

are they tweaking onplayerupdate or the values for each food?

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:44 PM

#

it appears to modify the values on each tick

#

each tick it gets what the value is set to, then bumps it up or down depending

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:45 PM

#

that is what I would be doing - but what values?

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:45 PM

#

nutrition:getCalories()

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:45 PM

#

hm

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:45 PM

#

or nutrition:getProteins(), etc...

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:45 PM

#

so it shifts the values on that end

#

oh konjima wrote it lol

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:46 PM

#

yus

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:46 PM

#

yeah since i cannot prevent the original update from happing this mod only adds up

#

and can only make decreasing faster

#

originally made it for real-time server where nutrition would be way too slow

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:47 PM

#

I'm thinking ultimately I will use the code from nutrition tweaker and just pull out the part about looking for sandbox config and just put in the values I want

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:48 PM

#

but this wouldn't take into account what the player is doing

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:48 PM

#

nah it doesnt

#

it ultimatly just make it faster because its uses getGameTime():getGameWorldSecondsSinceLastUpdate()

#

so if game time is set to real time its just way too slow

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:49 PM

#

I was going to rewrite the updateWeight() as lua lol

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:49 PM

#

but even if you do there is no way to prevent the java update to happen originally

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:49 PM

#

yeah

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:50 PM

#

but there is no problem to do it tho

#

if you want to add up to the original decreasing logic

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:50 PM

#

One part I'm not quite getting. Why are you multiplying the decrease by the amount of seconds since last update?

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:50 PM

#

that is what make the nutrition values relative to game world time

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:50 PM

#

gamespeed

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 8:51 PM

#

aah I see

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:51 PM

#

the game updates in ticks but the game doesn't tick faster if sped up

#

I think?

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:51 PM

#

should not

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:52 PM

#

      if (this.parent.IsRunning() && this.parent.isPlayerMoving()) {
         var1 = 1.0F;
         this.setCalories(this.getCalories() - (this.isFemale ? this.caloriesDecreraseFemaleExercise : this.caloriesDecreaseMaleExercise) * var1 * var3 * GameTime.getInstance().getGameWorldSecondsSinceLastUpdate());
      } else if (this.parent.isAsleep()) {
         this.setCalories(this.getCalories() - (this.isFemale ? this.caloriesDecreraseFemaleSleeping : this.caloriesDecreaseMaleSleeping) * var1 * var2 * var3 * GameTime.getInstance().getGameWorldSecondsSinceLastUpdate());
      } else {
         this.setCalories(this.getCalories() - (this.isFemale ? this.caloriesDecreraseFemaleNormal : this.caloriesDecreaseMaleNormal) * var1 * var2 * var3 * GameTime.getInstance().getGameWorldSecondsSinceLastUpdate());
      }

#

base game does the same thing

#

you can set gamespeed to x1000

#

that'd melt CPUs if you ticked that much lol

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:53 PM

#

it might even lower the ticks if anything, to compensate with faster world computation

#

idk

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 8:54 PM

#

technically could but there's visual elements that update

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 8:55 PM

you probably need to make the text briefer because from experience people on the workshop will somehow manage to not read it and then ask about something really basic that was already clarified in the description

#

yeah lmao its insane that theyre trying to add anticheat to a game with literally no stakes or gameplay

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 9:54 PM

#

it's a reference to caloriemate

#

#

isn't vrchat all mods?

winter bolt Jul 25, 2022, 9:56 PM

pretty much but theyre adding anticheat to specifically stop people from using modded clients that add in new features

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 9:57 PM

Ah yeah seems like a legal step they kind of had to take

their statement

damned if you do damned if you don't - for them

less anticheat and more user security

wraith root Jul 25, 2022, 9:59 PM

EAC will do worse than the mods that prevent the current issues with VRC

winter bolt Jul 25, 2022, 9:59 PM

thin hornet Jul 25, 2022, 10:00 PM

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 10:00 PM

winter bolt Jul 25, 2022, 10:00 PM

#

sour island Aren't they a free game?

yeah but they have a premium sub that adds stuff like profile pictures and other stuff like that

#

and i think it also gives you more favourite slots?

wraith root Jul 25, 2022, 10:00 PM

#

Most likely what is happening is VRC is prepping for a hand off to a buyer, as it's been inching that way for years now

#

zuckerburg buying it would be the funniest possible outcome honestly

wraith root Jul 25, 2022, 10:02 PM

opaque spire I like the write up, I'm looking forward to getting to try it out

Sorry it took longer than I thought, what I have so far:

local caloriesDecreaseExercise = 0.13 --as per vanilla

---@param player IsoPlayer|IsoGameCharacter
local function RCB_updateCalories(player)
    if not player then return end

    local pNutrition = player:getNutrition()
    if not pNutrition then return end

    ---base caloric burning rate
    local baseRate = 1

    ---thermoModifier
    local thermoModifier = 1
    local pBodyDamage = player:getBodyDamage()
    if pBodyDamage then
        local pbdThermoregulator = pBodyDamage:getThermoregulator()
        if pbdThermoregulator then
            thermoModifier = pbdThermoregulator:getEnergyMultiplier()
        end
    end

    ---weightModifier
    local weightModifier = (pNutrition:getWeight() / 80)
    local inventoryModifier = player:getInventoryWeight() / player:getMaxWeight()

    if player:isAttacking() or player:isClimbing() or player:isClimbingThroughWindow() then
        baseRate = math.max(8, 8*inventoryModifier)
    end

    if player:isMoving() then
        baseRate = baseRate * (caloriesDecreaseExercise/2)
    end


    baseRate = baseRate * weightModifier * thermoModifier * getGameTime():getGameWorldSecondsSinceLastUpdate()
    pNutrition:setCalories(pNutrition:getCalories()-baseRate)

    return baseRate
end

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 11:00 PM

#

what is climbing besides a window, like up a sheet rope?

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 11:00 PM

#

this might double calorie burning for attacks and climbing... hold on

#

yes

#

I think sheet rope and fence I assume

#

I think isclimbing is fence

#

and through window includes up sheet ropes

#

not sure tbh there's no getter for it

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 11:01 PM

#

oh right, fences. Yeah I like this.

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 11:02 PM

#

Im going off the vanilla calorie update either way

#

although an extra 8 calories burned won't kill anyone lol

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 11:03 PM

#

No, that's for sure.

#

It's definitely a more detailed solution than adding a straight multiplier, I think the most work here is going to come in testing the balance

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 11:05 PM

#

yeah

#

added a normal sleeping check

#

realized that would have an impact

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 11:07 PM

#

I don't know in what way the other nutrients come in to play, like as in what impact it will have, if anything, if you scale the calories but not the other 3

#

Nothing for weight gain or loss I know, but if it matters for other things, since you will have to be eating more, and so gaining more of the others

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 11:09 PM

#

weight gain only looks at calories iirc

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 11:09 PM

#

I believe that's right, I just don't really understand what impact the others have if any, in vanilla, if anything.

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 11:09 PM

#

If I had to assume endurance/fitness stuff

#

could check it out when I tackle update weight

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 11:10 PM

#

It might be worth looking, to scale relative to your baseRate?

#

Since you have to eat that much more food

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 11:11 PM

#

I mean the change would be pretty mild

#

I could actually make it ignore sleep/normal and ignore if sprinting

#

🤔

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 11:28 PM

#

opaque spire It might be worth looking, to scale relative to your baseRate?

Had a moment of clarity and probably over thought this but:

📎 message.txt

#

basically recreates the vanilla rate stores it and then applies changes

#

at which point it takes the vanilla rate and subtracts the new rate

#

which is then the burned calories

#

so it won't burn extra

#

I probably need to throw in an abs() in there

I wonder if I don't have to do weight loss if I can just adjust the calories

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 11:36 PM

#

using the moodles section in debug mode, it's towards the bottom

#

I wouldn't think so, I mean weight kind of takes care of itself based on the calories

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 11:37 PM

#

that's what I was thinking

#

I'll test it out

#

do you think the inventory weight in general should contribute? or just being over capacity?

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 11:38 PM

#

i would say just over capacity, maybe a bit more at each capacity tier

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 11:38 PM

yup that

i dont usually see it bump up and down quite like that

does it drop at that speed?

opaque spire Jul 25, 2022, 11:49 PM

wow i think i need coffee or something, it's looped obviously lol

#

yes that looks about normal

#

a bit faster than normal

sour island Jul 25, 2022, 11:50 PM

#

shouldn't be anymore than normal

#

although I can write up a debug print for changes

opaque spire did you end up doing it on the weight or the moodle level?

it's on weight - I'm trying to see what they're doing to decide moodle level

#

and maybe use the same logic

#

not easy to find

opaque spire Jul 26, 2022, 12:01 AM

#

can you just grab the moodle level once its already applied?

sour island Jul 26, 2022, 12:02 AM

#

found it

#

               float var7 = 2.8F;
               switch(this.Moodles.getMoodleLevel(MoodleType.HeavyLoad)) {
               case 1:
                  var7 = 1.5F;
                  break;
               case 2:
                  var7 = 1.9F;
                  break;
               case 3:
                  var7 = 2.3F;
               }

#

I'd rather use the fraction used for heavyload

opaque spire Jul 26, 2022, 12:02 AM

#

ah, cool

sour island Jul 26, 2022, 12:02 AM

I can cap it at 2.8

open abyss Hwo do i change the name of the keyring?

Off the top of my head here

item:setName("YOUR CUSTOM NAME")
item:setTooltip("YOUR CUSTOM TOOLTIP")

Note, however:

although some modified item properties are "persistent" (ie they will be the same after quitting a reloading, etc.), not all modified item properties are persistent.
Modified names are persistent; modified tooltips are persistent.
Behind the scenes we are talking about making more modified item properties persistent, such a tooltips, for modding purposes.
I don't know what modified item properties are persistent or not; testing is the best way to find out unfortunately.

java prases them

you can add lua functions on certain params tho

oh uh

that's good, I might make a java file then for the custom recipe

most of the flexibility of recipes is lua sided + the tags param

you recommend Lua instead of Java here?

It shouldnt be adding that much more caloric loss - the main difference is the inventory factor and the moving which is half of the exercise factor

both work fine for my server

#

hmm.. so, I could do fun stuff and just directly edit the recipes.lua file, but what is the method one would use to make a recipe (either a separate file or in the file itself) and then add it to workshop for my server?

#

I guess I don't have to add it to workshop but it would be good to learn the process of getting one up there

#

I mean... I could write a script, extend Recipecode.lua to it, then call the functions it contains within recipecode...

#

wraith root I mean... I could write a script, extend Recipecode.lua to it, then call the fun...

no need to extend

its already global

you can use any of those vanilla functions if needed

if you want to make your own you can just create a file in lua/server with a proper name such as YourModName_Recipecodes.lua and copy the 6 first lines and rename Recipe for your mod name

As for enforcing downloads of the mod by clients, is that necessary as it is server facing?

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 1:52 AM

#

clients actually runs the server scripts

#

to prevent a server lua script to run on a client but allow it to run in singleplayer just use

if isClient() then return; end

at the top of that server file or where ever that must not be executed on a client

good to know, luckily here the goal is for a dedicated server

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 1:54 AM

#

well bascially a mod should be compatible for singleplayer, host and dedicated without no efforts

#

singleplayer will run client,server,shared, clients too, and host/dedi server will run server/shared

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 1:55 AM

#

For this mod as it is server based, I am looking to avoid hurdles for singeplayer

#

I'm not looking to add compatibility for lone users unless there is an elegant way to do so

sour island Jul 26, 2022, 1:57 AM

#

wraith root as for these safeguards? What are they up to

isValid checks if the item is in the inventory / tools needed are present, not broken, etc

#

OnCreate is the added lua function stuff I mentioned - has params equal to ingredients and recipe stuff - can be a bit weird as ingredients are only taken after onperform

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 1:58 AM

for something like this, I will have to make an assignment in my own code no?

#

I used to mod for GTA, never this game so this is new for me

#

(Much different lol. Similar languages though)

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:01 AM

#

all you need is

-- Create a global table with my mod name
YourModName_Recipe = {}

-- Prepare sub tables for the type of functions you could need
YourModName_Recipe.GetItemTypes = {}
YourModName_Recipe.OnCanPerform = {}
YourModName_Recipe.OnCreate = {}
YourModName_Recipe.OnGiveXP = {}
YourModName_Recipe.OnTest = {}

-- Define the actual functions you need here

#

so an example you could need is

function YourModName_Recipe.OnCreate.GiveMoreItems(items, result, player)
    player:getInventory():AddItem(result:getFullType()); -- add an extra result item
end

#

then inside your recipe script .txt file you would just use:

recipe Make something {
  stuff,

  result:resultStuff,
  OnCreate:YourModName_Recipe.OnCreate.GiveMoreItems,
}

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:15 AM

#

wraith root The first three directories are not made by myself no?

look into C:\Users\<user>\Zomboid\Workshop\ModTemplate

#

thats the default template to start with

#

after writing this directory structure message above i realized its not as simple as i though xD (at least to visualize)

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:17 AM

#

wraith root The first three directories are not made by myself no?

So basically you mod structure inside the media/ directory will most likely mimic the base game media/ structure

#

your mod C:\Users\Konijima\Zomboid\Workshop\ModTemplate\Contents\mods\ModTemplate\media
game : C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid\media

#

then if you add lua, scripts, textures, ui, etc thats the same structure

#

if you were to add the same file in the same directory you would most likely overwrite the vanilla one when your mod loads

open abyss Jul 26, 2022, 2:19 AM

#

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:19 AM

#

prefer not to lol, but that's why I am asking the simple questions as I know I wont be the only one looking in the future

#

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:24 AM

#

looks alright, so now if you add lua script inside your client/RecipeModBatteryJournals directory and need to require an other of your lua file you would use require('RecipeModBatteryJournals/myotherfile').

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:26 AM

#

Wouldn't it make more sense to have separate files since for client you are going to add a check to disable the server script? I still didn't understand that step myself

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:26 AM

#

which mean that require() statement base bath is the stuff after client/ shared/ server/. Which is why i told you to add those other directory with your mod id

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:26 AM

#

makes sense

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:27 AM

#

So if your mod just need server scripts you can omit adding a client/ directory it doesnt matter

#

any client/ script can require other client and shared lua script.
any server/ script can require other server and shared lua script.
client cannot require server and server cannot require client.

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:28 AM

#

eventually once I get the server side running, I'd like to do the steps to make this a workshop item so I know for the future

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:29 AM

#

yeah for now as you develop it you can use the C:\Users\Konijima\Zomboid\mods\mymod\ directory

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:29 AM

#

Ah I just made a standalone directory

#

I can move it over

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:30 AM

#

well where is your RecipeModBatteryJournals main directory

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:30 AM

#

in an unrelated directory atm

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:30 AM

#

ah you wont be able to load it in the game

#

so just drag it inside C:\Users\Konijima\Zomboid\mods for now and it will be loadable in host and self hosted dedi

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:31 AM

#

I swapped it on over

#

For the naming conventions it looks as if it implies I can only make one recipe per mod

#

which.. we both know isn't trye

#

true*

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:33 AM

#

haha

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:33 AM

#

#

making two recipes for the mod, one to fabricate batts and another to make journals

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:33 AM

#

take a look at

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid\media\scripts

#

the game uses txt script, which is a custom format for pz itself.
the directory i sent you above contains all the base game script which is where the items, recipes, definitions are

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:35 AM

#

is it going to be angry if formats are not matched ?

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:35 AM

#

so for your own mod you will replicate the directory strucutre

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:35 AM

#

more so in whitespace

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:35 AM

#

whitespace is trimed and all

#

you can also use /* comment */

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:36 AM

#

nice

#

as for directory structure, I thought this current structure worked alright?

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:36 AM

#

only thing that matter is the stuff inside the { }

#

oh what i mean is that for your mod scripts TXT you will add a scripts directory in your media directory

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:38 AM

#

open abyss Jul 26, 2022, 2:38 AM

#

Okay, the mod works 99%
I just need to move the key item to the Dupe mod instead of the other one (easy enough)
Then i need to make an icon for the key item.

#

Thanks a ton Konijima!

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:38 AM

#

if you wanted to add sound you would create the a sound directory exactly how the base game media directory does

open abyss Jul 26, 2022, 2:38 AM

#

After having moved the item, i just need to make sure the script looks in the right module, then save, upload and then bed time!

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:38 AM

#

fair enough

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:39 AM

#

thin hornet if you wanted to add `sound` you would create the a `sound` directory exactly ho...

ah you say directory and I assume folder, I think I got confused as to me I call them files inside their directory

open abyss Jul 26, 2022, 2:40 AM

#

quick question, can recipes and item definitions co-exists in the same file?

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:40 AM

#

open abyss quick question, can recipes and item definitions co-exists in the same file?

it can yes (for the sake of keeping it clean I suggest you use 2 file, myItems.txt and myRecipes.txt

open abyss Jul 26, 2022, 2:41 AM

#

awesome, cause i only got one item, no need to make a new text file just to have a recipe for it while i got a 2nd file for it's def

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:41 AM

#

looks like I need to extend the Base

#

unless the module would be my mod here as its not "vanilla" as a recipe

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:42 AM

#

module MyModId {
  imports {
     Base,
  }

  // yours stuff  

}

open abyss Jul 26, 2022, 2:43 AM

Okay, now i just need to upload and then passout 😛

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:45 AM

#

I see here in the example it uses / to denote options for a recipe

#

If a recipe has two options, but each option uses different multiple items, what would that look like?

#

I guess I could keep digging to see Im sure an example is in here

#

just thinking aloud

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:46 AM

#

well the upper part lets call it ingredients

#

recipe Craft some cool stuff {
  ingredient1,
  keep ingredient2,
  
}

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:48 AM

#

    recipe Fabricate Small Battery
    {
        Aluminum,
        ScrapMetal,
        ElectronicsScrap

        Result:SmashedBottle,
        Time:20,
        Sound:BreakGlassItem,
    }

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:48 AM

#

there is multiple way of adding optional ingredients such as when a recipe could use different type of hammer

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:48 AM

#

the bottle is stuff I havent touched just yet

#

Lets say you have these two options

Aluminum + ScrapMetal + ElectroScrap

OR

SmallSheetMetal=2 + ElectroScrap

#

so would the / be between all of it?

#

or more so options per item

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

Aluminum + ScrapMetal + ElectroScrap

Aluminum,
ScrapMetal,
ElectronicsScrap,

OR
SmallSheetMetal=2 + ElectroScrap

SmallSheetMetal=2,
ElectronicsScrap,

#

oh you mean your recipe have different possible combination?

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

mhm

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

if thats the case, then you will probably need 2 recipe

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

sadge

#

but makes sense

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

so the \ means that it can be this item or an other

#

but only for that ingredient "slot"

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:53 AM

#

hm

#

I could just make it more dynamic and add options for the current stuff

#

#

there

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:54 AM

#

    recipe Make 4 Bowls of Soup
    {
       PotOfSoup/PotOfSoupRecipe,
       Bowl=4,

       Result:SoupBowl=4,
       OnCreate:Recipe.OnCreate.MakeBowlOfSoup4,
       Time:80.0,
       Category:Cooking,
       OnGiveXP:Recipe.OnGiveXP.None,
    }

So for this recipe you could make 4 bowl of soup if you have 4 empty bowl and (a pot of soup OR a pot of soup recipe)

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:55 AM

#

wraith root

ya in that case you need aluminium or smallsheet AND scraptmetal or electronic scrap

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:55 AM

#

perfecto

#

thats the aim there since the two exclusive recipes might be too uh... deceptive

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 2:56 AM

#

also

#

for the way to write it (its weird i know) but it should be

Aluminum/SmallSheetMetal;2,
ScrapMetal/ElectronicScrap;2,

#

some stuff like that might be confusing but look at example and youll find out

#

instead of = its a ; cause you using multiple possible variant

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 2:58 AM

#

ah fair enough

#

as for category, I presume that is for XP gain

#

is there a way to enable XP gain on my recipe's? (Sure there is! But h o w lol)

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 3:00 AM

no the Category is for the Tab in which the recipe will be in the crafting menu

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 3:00 AM

#

take a look at a cooking recipe such as recipe Make Pie Dough

#

it give cooking XP using a function defined in recipecodes.lua

which is why you can have your own recipe codes lua file in media/lua/server/YourModId_RecipeCodes.lua

search for Recipe.OnGiveXP.Cooking10 in the recipecodes.lua you had open earlier

#

so that function look like this

function Recipe.OnGiveXP.Cooking10(recipe, ingredients, result, player)
    player:getXp():AddXP(Perks.Cooking, 10);

the parameters are that and nothing else for OnGiveXP

yeah here you go, that function will be called when cooking a cake batter

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 3:08 AM

#

whats going on with these testing functions? for debugging?

ionic sun Jul 26, 2022, 3:09 AM

#

Does anyone know how to get rid of the chug that happens as you continuously fire an auto weapon, I've played with the scripts and none of the numbers seem to affect this. Seeing if anyone else has had this issue.

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 3:09 AM

#

OnTest is called before adding the recipe to the context menu, so if that function would return false that would mean you cannot do that recipe.

#

exemple

function Recipe.OnTest.DismantleElectronics(sourceItem, result)
    if sourceItem:hasTag("Screwdriver") then return true end
    return not sourceItem:isFavorite()
end

#

this just do some checking to make sure the items are valid

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 3:11 AM

thin hornet exemple ``` function Recipe.OnTest.DismantleElectronics(sourceItem, result) ...

I should likely implement a test then to check my items?

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 3:12 AM

#

only if anything special to test for

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 3:12 AM

#

Im a bit confused on how it checks when it already checks in the main function

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 3:12 AM

#

as in is the food cooked?

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 3:12 AM

#

does it check for tools as well?

#

Like if I need a crowbar or something to make certain items

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 3:12 AM

#

well there is not much to check about it

#

what would you check on a crowbar? other than its condition which is already handled by default

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 3:13 AM

#

more so if I need a crowbar in my inventory to make say a car battery break down into lithium bars

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 3:14 AM

#

then you would just add keep Crowbar, as one of the ingrediant

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 3:14 AM

#

so instead of asking for a car battery

I check to see if I have a crowbar in hand/in my inventory on top of the crowbar

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 3:14 AM

#

thin hornet then you would just add `keep Crowbar,` as one of the ingrediant

    addExistingItemType(scriptItems, "FlintKnife")
    addExistingItemType(scriptItems, "HuntingKnife")

end

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 3:20 AM

what's this fellow up to

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 3:20 AM

#

so instead of typing all this as possible ingrediant

FlintKnife\HuntingKnife\KitchenKnife\Machete

you made a GetItemTypes function
that kind of get all possible items for ingredient

VideoGame, // WILL CONSUME THE VIDEOGAME
keep [Recipe.GetItemTypes.Screwdriver],

#

it will call that function and know all possible variant of usable ingredients for that line

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 3:22 AM

As in tools that do the same job

this isn't entirely true I know, but in saving a headache from developing mods in java that I would then have to have every player manually install? no lol... stick to lua for that

unless its server ended, then don't gotta worry too much on it

All the injury timers are set to a corresponding stored value or their current value whichever is higher

@sour islandSo I played through a typical day in my game with your calorie rebalance on. In 24 hours I burned 1956 calories. This is compared to my test just vanilla of burning just about 1000 calories per day, so I burned about double. Now on this day I did a lot of running around with very heavy weight, moving zombie bodies and furniture, so it's probably just about the worse case scenario for burning calories.

willow estuary Jul 26, 2022, 3:35 AM

thin hornet so instead of typing all this as possible ingrediant ``` FlintKnife\HuntingKnife...

Yes, this, we deliberately tried to both provide exiting templates for this stuff as well as examples for creating new functions in this vein for mods..

Nah, it's been used in scripts since tags were added.
The "modder accomodation"/example recipecode.lua stuff is new however.

#

There's several functions in recipecode.lua that aren't used in vanilla, but are intended for mod functionality and example purposes.

sour island Jul 26, 2022, 3:39 AM

an example would be write being added in, but the write tag exsisted before as it is needed for maps/journals but there was no gettype for it

#

gasmask as in easily making a headgear act as a gas mask?

willow estuary Jul 26, 2022, 3:46 AM

#

Nah; just having one in your inventory. It was just an accomodation for Hydrocraft etc.

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 3:46 AM

#

like if i create a darth vador mask all i need is to add the gasmask tag for it to be protective of corpse fume

#

ah right, its a mod that does that

willow estuary Jul 26, 2022, 3:47 AM

#

The gasmask tag does not currently protect from corpse fume.

#

Okay, the wizard of oz is gonna pull back the curtain here however.

I don't think this is unreasonable of me to leak this here now.

Added a couple feature with the random Nuke blowing up, it make you sick, can burn random part of your body and scare the f out of you, so i have to make usage of the hazmat suit for radioactive protection

As well, when we do add new items, we are going to try and go the extra mile in making that new item "special" and giving it expected functionality?

Would anyone know the spawn command for the Agrotsar Plough-69 from the Agrotsar Farming Company mod? A friend of mine is trying to get the plough, but can't find it so I was just going to spawn it in for him. However, I can't seem to get the spawn command right

sour island Jul 26, 2022, 4:00 AM

but basically it tracks a value over onplayerupdate - for injuries it grabs the highest value available and for health the lowest

Well yeah its a good challenge, i did think about not healing from eating food at some point and hope someone make it, it would actally make doctor more valuable as their bandage and all is more effective

opaque spire Jul 26, 2022, 4:04 AM

One thing I did notice though, and I never tested this out vanilla so i can't compare, but my lipids/protein/carbs are pretty much always pinned at -500

setting health from food doesn't seem to do anything

now that I have my mods

#

hm.. I saw some other examples where items returned could have a value > 1

willow estuary Jul 26, 2022, 4:07 AM

#

thin hornet what do you mean?

Well it's possible to add new tags to items, and new recipecode tag functions, so ideally an "educational file" that shows how to add tags to items + make new recipecode tag functions would be an worthwhile educational example?

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 4:07 AM

ah then its alright

Off the top of my head, an example mod that adds the "TieHair" tag to elastic bands and also modifies the hairstyle code to require an item with the TieHair tag to tie a ponytail? And returns said used item when untying a ponytail.

sour island Jul 26, 2022, 4:09 AM

#

I think he just means it's not widely used - most modders learn from others' codes to begin with

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 4:09 AM

uh oh

EHE adds 'canOpenBoxes' to items

#

probably not what you'd imagine modders doing but

EHE_Recipe.typesThatCanOpenBoxes = EHE_Recipe.typesThatCanOpenBoxes or {}
---Sub-mod authors will have to use the following function to add more types
EHE_Recipe.convertNumericListToKeyedTable(
        ---List param
        {"Base.IcePick","Base.HandScythe","Base.MeatCleaver","Base.LetterOpener","Base.Katana","Base.Scalpel","Base.GardenFork",}
    ---Table param
    ,EHE_Recipe.typesThatCanOpenBoxes)


EHE_Recipe.additionalTagChecks = EHE_Recipe.additionalTagChecks or {}
EHE_Recipe.convertNumericListToKeyedTable(
        ---List param
        {"Screwdriver","DullKnife","SharpKnife","Write","ChopTree","CutPlant","Scissors","Fork","Spoon"}
    ---Table param
    , EHE_Recipe.additionalTagChecks)


---Scans through every item, checks for types listed above as well as additional tag checks - avoids redundant tags
function EHE_Recipe.addCanOpenBoxesTagToTypesThatCan()
    ---Adds "CanOpenBoxes" tag to scripts for type
    local allItems = ScriptManager.instance:getAllItems()
    local debugText = "EHE: Added Tag 'CanOpenBoxes' to: "

    for i=0, allItems:size()-1 do
        ---@type Item
        local itemScript = allItems:get(i)
        local itemFullName = itemScript:getFullName()
        local tags = itemScript:getTags()
        local addCanOpenBoxesTag = EHE_Recipe.typesThatCanOpenBoxes[itemFullName]
        local tagString = ""
        for i=0, tags:size()-1 do
            ---@type string
            local tag = tags:get(i)
            if EHE_Recipe.additionalTagChecks[tag] then
                addCanOpenBoxesTag = true
            end
            tagString = tagString..tag..";"
        end

        if addCanOpenBoxesTag then
            debugText = debugText..itemFullName..", "
            itemScript:DoParam("Tags = "..tagString..";CanOpenBoxes");
        end
    end
    print(debugText)
end

Events.OnGameBoot.Add(EHE_Recipe.addCanOpenBoxesTagToTypesThatCan)

#

adds the tag to all items with either a matching type or other tag of choice

#

the convertNumericListToKeyedTable is just a for loop that adds keys = true, cause I'm lazy

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 4:12 AM

#

ah i see

willow estuary Jul 26, 2022, 4:13 AM

#

Yeah, just keeping the example mod vanilla-adjacent makes it more broadly applicable?

sour island Jul 26, 2022, 4:13 AM

#

Sure

willow estuary Jul 26, 2022, 4:15 AM

#

Anyways, this is just lines of pixie dust?
Point being that Tags are a very powerful tool for modders and there's a lot more that we can do to educate modders in that regard? 🙂

sour island Jul 26, 2022, 4:16 AM

#

like dynamically adding tags

#

would catch items from other mods using those vanilla tags

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 4:20 AM

#

If you need a dummy to test the ease of education, I ain't rock bottom for programming, but for PZ modding I am

#

squirrel

willow estuary Jul 26, 2022, 4:21 AM

#

Honestly, we (TTIS) can't manage handling mod tags?
But using the wiki modding section to list all the tags that mods use would be an excellent use of the wiki?

sour island Jul 26, 2022, 4:22 AM

#

I wrote a function that prints all used tags in a game session - could post it there

willow estuary Jul 26, 2022, 4:22 AM

#

For inter-mod compatibility.

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 4:22 AM

#

Well making a list of ideas of possible application of tags then we can write example for each usage and add a more complete tutorial on the wiki page

sour island Jul 26, 2022, 4:23 AM

#

using gettagtype would be the most ideal way to grab tools

willow estuary Jul 26, 2022, 4:23 AM

#

I think any initiative that encourages modders to use tags in innovative ways would be an excellent idea?

#

Tags are very powerful tools.

#

You used tags for fuel API?

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 4:24 AM

#

I will say, the more thorough the docs with examples the better

#

Sounds like a no brainer, but even now the docs for modding are extensive, yet still not as informative as you'd wanna see / too expansive for its own good

thin hornet Jul 26, 2022, 4:25 AM

#

Clearly the main usage of tag is mostly to grab any or all objects with a specific tag. But yeah there is many possible application to this.

willow estuary Jul 26, 2022, 4:26 AM

#

wraith root I will say, the more thorough the docs with examples the better

The issue with comprehensive documentation is that the game is nowheres near 1.0 and a lot of systems are in flux.
It frustrates me as well, but TBH, in general we can't do much until 1.0 is closer.

wraith root Jul 26, 2022, 4:26 AM
