so hunting with a rifle would be the same process as for the resortera?

rocky lynx Apr 26, 2019, 2:05 AM

different

wanton lily Apr 26, 2019, 2:05 AM

ah

rocky lynx Apr 26, 2019, 2:06 AM

need to have a scope attached

you neen also aiming and foraging skill

in this test i combined LGEP with WPA mod, i use weapon with and without silencer and well, zombies not hear the shoot in long distances, but they can hear big animals screaming.

wanton lily Apr 26, 2019, 2:13 AM

#

hey, that's actually pretty cool :0

#

at least that's better than the current """" hunting"""" system

#

and well, I guess that's a rip for players with keen hearing zombies

rocky lynx Apr 26, 2019, 2:16 AM

#

yep, if you find a bear you gain panic, with panic your aiming decreases, so you need to wait sometimes

wanton lily Apr 26, 2019, 2:17 AM

#

wait for the panic to go away or the bear? xD

rocky lynx Apr 26, 2019, 2:18 AM

#

in latest versions you only can hunt in scavenging zones with 100% if you hit something, zone decreases... it's the way to balance the system.

wanton lily Apr 26, 2019, 2:21 AM

#

I rarely do foraging in my game so here goes a stupid question: does it goes back to 100% at some point?)

just as you can cook a rat inside an oven, imagine literally a bear instead xD

rocky lynx Apr 26, 2019, 5:01 PM

#

haha you can put tied bear in oven

#

can't

#

not cookable

#

if you untie animal, restores the weight, so you can't put a bear with 110 weight inside an oven.

#

you need to butcher that to get meat and some more items.

wanton lily Apr 26, 2019, 5:25 PM

awww

#

welp, guess I'll have to edit the mod then

#

Hmmm now that I think about it, what would happen if you ever get to do such thing...

probabbly a crash I guess

idea new foraging item. Pine/spruce resin/sap. Can be mixed with charcoal to make pitch. Pitch can be used in any recipe or repair that uses glue. 50% or more effective than wood glue. Must be heated to create and heated to use.

@drifting ore why would it fall apart when heated, it needs to be heated to a semi-liquid like state to be used as a glue. When cold quality pitch can be as hard as stone.

@mortal ivy yes youre true. it woul could be a good component.
but i meant it would fall apart when heated again. its just chemistry one way or the other. i saw it in comparison to wood glue which you mentioned. normal wood glue has very good qualities. that the reason people use it instead of pitch today...

@drifting ore why would a person heat a hammer? Or set fire to a nailbat( okay that actually might be awesome for in game). Like wood glue would also melt anyhow, wood glue is great cuz it's conveniently mass produced. I'm not sure how one would craft that in the wild.

Sooo anyone use "Simple Logistics" I'm wondering how to pick up a pallet of somthing, since it needs to be in your inventory to use

spark crystal May 2, 2019, 1:08 AM

#

Hi @mortal ivy - I'm the dev of Simple Logistics.

What issues are you having?

#

I believe some locations feature pallets as a 'piece of furniture' - these can't be picked up and used the same way.

The pallets added by SL are all items that can be found in the loot tables around particular locations.
They can also be crafted.

#

You should be able to find/build a pallet, place it on the ground, and have a few stacks of lumber in your inventory, and create a pallet of lumber, etc.

mortal ivy May 2, 2019, 5:20 AM

#

So while it currently doesn't matter cuz of the damn helicopter

#

I had found a pallet of lumber and the dropped on the lawn of the house I was beginning to barricade

#

It could not be interacted with afterwards.

#

It was just there

spark crystal May 2, 2019, 5:22 AM

#

You need to right click > unpack, before you can get usable wood from it

#

Having the pallet on the ground won't serve any purpose, other than visually stockpiling 😉

mortal ivy May 2, 2019, 5:23 AM

#

Yeah so if you visually stockpile you waste it

spark crystal May 2, 2019, 5:23 AM

#

No, you can pick it up as an item

mortal ivy May 2, 2019, 5:23 AM

#

Nope

spark crystal May 2, 2019, 5:24 AM

#

You definitely can.

#

Not by right clicking on it.

#

It's literally a standard item, with a big icon.

#

So you pick it up off the floor, as if it were any other item.
It does not function as a container. It is an item only.

mortal ivy May 2, 2019, 5:25 AM

#

Weird it never showed up

spark crystal May 2, 2019, 5:25 AM

#

You may not have been standing over it enough, for it to come up in the blue/white tile for item pickups.

mortal ivy May 2, 2019, 5:25 AM

#

Maybe it clipped or something cuz it was to close to the porch area of the hpuse

spark crystal May 2, 2019, 5:26 AM

#

Possible, yeah.

#

It's literally an item, with an icon that is resized. No reason you shouldn't be able to find it/pick it up.

mortal ivy May 2, 2019, 5:26 AM

#

Well guess I'll find out next time 😅

Anyone can help.. so i made a mod.. make gunpowder from ORGM ammo.. i've updated it so that with the gun powder you can remake the ammo. so i have same recipe x2 except one makes FMJ and the other HP... but only option to make is FMJ... is there some weird restriction with recipes? I expect to see 2 choices, one to make HP ammo and another to make FMJ

@raw canopy do you know how to code at all, generally?

#

If so, a good way to learn is to take something from the workshop, read it, understand it, and adapt.

It's easiest if you can find something that is already roughly similar to what you want to do.

quick question regarding the zombie infection: I think this is in BodyPart.class, but I can't say for sure what function sets the zombie virus activ/deactiv

#

is it SetInfected(Boolean)?

#

or does this set the "normal" infection?

placid delta May 9, 2019, 12:33 AM

#

Don't have the reference in front I me but I recall using setInfectionLevel() to reset the infection back to the state where it just starts. I don't remember if I set it to 0 or 1 though.

It was for HC craft where you inject yourself with blood to temporarily fend off the zombification symptoms. You can probably still find it in the HC code

Mod idea* not sure if there's something already though.

#

Hand-cart/moving dolly as a way to move heavy single tile furniture like fridges, stoves, wardrobes, etc. 80% weight reduction but must be equipped in both hands to move object. Can not through window's while using, or open doors, must have a clear path. 2 rope or 4? sheet rope will secure the item to it.
Similar spawning to things like saws and sledgehammer's . Maybe an option to craft one with a 3 in metalwork, 1 in mechanics. 6 metal bars, 2 small metal sheets, 2 standard car tires usual welding equipment.

#

Like from what I can tell you need to gain the stout trait to be able to move a fridge. And getting that is what, 2 level increases to strength?

nimble spoke May 9, 2019, 5:36 PM

may be possible once we get the anims build, for now the closest thing to it is hydrocraft's hand cart

you dont actually see any cart though. its just a large bag/container item that you have to equip with 2 hands

nimble spoke May 9, 2019, 8:11 PM

exactly. I tested the movable wheelie bin, but it didn't have an inventory, and I didn't know how to fix it

drifting ore May 9, 2019, 8:53 PM

#

the best cart in HC is the toywagon imo. its OP. u have it ony in one hand and it carries 200kg

mortal ivy May 9, 2019, 9:32 PM

#

I mean I'm not concerned about seeing a model of it. Just a balanced function to move things of such a large size.

#

As even if I have a back-pack mod like the ALICE bags, I still can't pick up the fridge even though the back-pack will hold the weight.

Hello
HELP! Problems!)
I create Russian Retextures.

I almost finished “chopping” my textures in Paint.Net.
I decided to check what is coming out. Packed in .pack with the help of PZ Modding tool, launched the game, turned on my mod and exited. I started the game again, went to a special map - all textures lost.
When I was packing textures, I chose: The size of the output texture was 1024x1024.
I did not changed the option Scale to 1x. In using the "Saved Settings" did nothing.
What have I done wrong?
(at the moment the mod is stored in the path: C: \Users\azaza\Zomboid\mods)

you do separated tiles?

#

@indigo hound

#

(This is a base game tilesheet) you need to do tiles in one file before to pack, and need to add properties to your custom tiles to load properly.

you replacing the basegame tiles?

#

i don't know anything about that, i only made new custom tiles.

I understand that when packing in .pack, should load the properties of all the textures? Where me find them in the game folder? Than i can load when packaged.

you can open a tile properties file

so you can see properties for all tiles included in Tilezed, you can found the original properties for your basegame tiles.

rocky lynx May 12, 2019, 2:50 PM

#

haha you can found easy if you know the name of the sheet what do you want to replace

#

if you want to replace a basegame tiles, i think you need to replace all tilesheet tiles. So for example: if you want to change the tile of one fridge... you need to make the tilesheet same as basegame but only changes the tile of the modded fridge.

indigo hound May 12, 2019, 2:53 PM

@rocky lynx I unpacked the vanilla textures, and replace it with my own. obtained that properties are lost to all textures.

@viscid kelp These editor-only tilesets

With custom tiles if you don't have a properties files and not pack tiles properly, when you reload your save tiles dissapear.

#

Do you know how to replace vanilla textures? Could you show us, please?

rocky lynx May 12, 2019, 3:54 PM

#

Pe2h nope, i'm never replace vanilla textures, never tried it.

#

but i think to replace a vanilla texture you will need the custom tileset and custom properties (Same as basegame for that category name)

#

so maybe if you want to replace a tile that its included as example in advertising_01

#

you need to replace the tiles that you want inside... but include the another ones (The tiles what you decide to not overwrite)

viscid kelp May 12, 2019, 3:59 PM

#

But how?

#

How did you added your custom tiles?

rocky lynx May 12, 2019, 4:01 PM

#

with tilezed and the tools inside... in this momment i learn how to add custom tiles properties, so my mods reads that. I created custom materials to get if you dismantle custom moveables.

#

if you want to test you can come to my blog and download CustomMapBridge Mod... This mod link up all my custom tiles in one file to be used for my custom maps and mods.

spark crystal May 13, 2019, 1:36 AM

@viscid kelp I think there is a mod on the workshop, called apocalyptic sprites or something, that I think replaces some of the vanilla sprites for some objects

now i change traps sound... now we hear the animal inside of the trap.

#

not a universal sound for trap type.

rocky lynx May 13, 2019, 5:04 PM

#

with the new sounds, i can add a new mechanic for trapping... i think to add some dangerous species, like snakes. So, if you know a trap contains a dangerous animal you will need to kill it before to take it or suffer the consequences xD

#

How to know that?... with sounds or with the new trap info window.

So I would really like to make some custom vehicle gates (the large multi-tile doors) for my custom map

#

Can anyone help me out on how I could do it? I know basic custom tile making, Ive made custom doors and walls and windows all just fine but the large door isn’t included in the map editor files so I’m not sure how to go about it

#

Also, anyone know any fixes to map placed crops causing errors?

Try downloading the tools from steam. Then you should be able to find the fencing and fencing doors tile sheets in the tiles folder.

drifting ore May 22, 2019, 2:26 PM

#

Well, I don't think dirt or not should be a problem. When does the error show up, in the game with the console?
Not sure why you have so many layers in tile zed really, never seen that before, so that could be problematic, don't know.
What I do know works, is creating a 'building' in the building editor, then don't build a building, only place what you want.

spiral plover May 22, 2019, 2:26 PM

#

It's so I can turn off the roofs and such so I can see behind the building

#

The error shows up randomly when I'm in range, I'll go fetch it real quick

drifting ore May 22, 2019, 2:27 PM

#

Wait a second.

#

Did you get the new tiles from steam yet?

#

If not, try that first and foremost.

#

Because the sheets can and have been changed.

#

So what was located as #1 in a sheet earlier.

#

Could be an empty space now, or something else.

#

So, I'd start with getting the new tiles, replacing old ones.

spiral plover May 22, 2019, 2:28 PM

#

Oh, fair point, yeah I just got those let me try that

drifting ore May 22, 2019, 2:28 PM

#

If you drag & drop the new sheet into your old folder.

#

If that changes any plants or gives you errors, there you go.

#

The .newtilesdefinitions or whatever it's called should also be copied.

spiral plover May 22, 2019, 2:31 PM

#

Yeah I transferred that all good

#

I've got a few of these farm tiles on tiles that also have vegetation

#

could that possibly be the issue?

#

Replaced all the crops, but I didn't notice any changes

#

maybe the .newtiledefinitions changed though

#

just got it updated and in game

#

so far so good, no errors

#

Ah! Here it is

destroyed plants in custom maps [40.43]

Well, making a mod update i discover a basegame bug. When a custom map have a destroyed plant tile, gives error. The way to solve that comes from MOFarming.lua located in media\lua\server\Map\MapObjects Function NewDestroyed(isoObject): There is a line (42) that called: ISPla...

this happen when you place destroyed plants and plow lands tiles.

inside of that report you can found the solution if you want to do a patch.

Hi, I have a quick question. Is there perhaps some "example mod" for adding recipes to hydrocraft? I would like to make a mod that would allow for crafting windshields/car windows to hydro - as the reserver I play on - redboid - has very few cars around, so scavenging existing windows a couple months after start is troublesome.
I am not at all a coder, was just hoping that it could be easy as changing some requirements/outcomes 😃

nimble spoke May 27, 2019, 3:30 PM

You just need to learn how to mod recipes, then you need to know the item entries you want to use, for Hydro or any other source

@nimble spoke cool, what kind of recipes are you adding? i started out with just adding more jar foods because i was always running out of jars, but now have ways to get renewable salt, sugar, and vinegar too. yeah the evolved recipes are super fun. i love making a tray of roast vegetables out of just chicken and steak lol.

nimble spoke May 28, 2019, 4:40 PM

#

I will add pickled vegatables and fruit jelly mostly

#

as a simple way to preserve them longer somehow. I don't like the vanilla way of preserving them in jar and returning the vegetable latter

humble raptor May 28, 2019, 4:44 PM

#

ayy fruit jelly, i'm doing that too, just done the wild berry one for now (it's in that pic) but i was gonna do marmalade and apple sauce and stuff too. maybe we should pool resources and cover it all in half the time if we're aiming for the same thing there!

#

yeah you should really be able to make actual pickled stuff, i know it's more of an english thing but pickled onions 👌 👌 👌

#

i changed pickles to be in jars and provide pickles rather than just straight up pickles being with all the raw veg on the grocer shelves

#

i want to do salting and preserving meats too, i've added hickory root to the forage list and the recipe for refining it into salt, haven't done the meats yet

#

i'm also planning to add salt licks to farms as an extra non renewable salt source, you'd get tonnes of salt from smashing them but they're mad heavy so collecting them would be a challenge

#

what have you got done so far?

#

do you sprite too?

nimble spoke May 28, 2019, 4:54 PM

#

Yeah, I make my own icons and sprites, I haven't added anything for jelly or pickles yet, I have other recipes I need to finish first. I made icons but that's all, they may not even be the final ones

#

I'm glad to see more people working on renewable stuff for longer survival

humble raptor May 28, 2019, 4:56 PM

Yeah, I went for mixed vegetables since in an evolved recipe you can add whatever you want

humble raptor May 28, 2019, 5:02 PM

that'll be sweet. and using it would just remove nutrition from the jar until it was all used up?

static radish May 29, 2019, 8:33 PM

@nimble spoke I was suggesting separate parts be something similar to the whole large, small, and normal gas tank thing, but instead you have a meatal working recipe to make one of these theoretical Condition 100+ parts that don't combust at first contact unlike their normal counterparts.

nimble spoke May 29, 2019, 8:36 PM

Like a reinforced part. I get it now, I think it is worth testing. The game probably uses ConditionMax and current condition to calculate a %, if that's the case going for higher conditionmax values would work

nimble spoke May 29, 2019, 10:18 PM

The parts that have a ConditionMax value are gas tanks and trunks, but trunks can't be uninstalled so reinforcing them can't be through item recipes

#

I'll keep looking, there may be other ways of reinforcing cars

static radish May 29, 2019, 11:23 PM

So how servers do it is Mods=modid;modid and then WorkshopItems=numberid;numberid

#

I imagine mods would work similarly

nimble spoke Jun 2, 2019, 8:18 PM

Mod.info uses a require=modid

#

but using ; and adding a second mod breaks it

As in the image I posted

But if I use 2 require lines it only activates one mod in game and you must activate the other manually

@nimble spoke hey so I love all of your mods, especially the added skills stuff. So I had I thought about a couple other mods that maybe they would fit better with the game if integrated into a skill system. Though I'm sure that would be up to the other modders if they want to collab.

#

The lockpicking & and lock crafting mods could be combined into a LockSmith skill which would add chance rates as to picking locks based on skill and difficulty.

indigo hound Jun 6, 2019, 6:07 PM

#

The game really needs a mechanic to break locks. As in Skyrim or Fallout.

meager quiver Jun 6, 2019, 6:10 PM

Hmm It should be as mod , not Offical thing

young moat Jun 6, 2019, 6:11 PM

It would considered as cheat thing .. but I agree on advanced /easy type lockpicking feature

#

Probably, but have you heard of sledgehammer?

nimble spoke Jun 6, 2019, 6:36 PM

@mortal ivy The skill system is there for anyone who wants to use it. I think a Locksmithing skill would be fun.... already more useful than metal welding lol

indigo hound Jun 6, 2019, 6:58 PM

#

It's funny that the cheating sledgehammer is the norm, and making your own complex system of hacking locks is cheating)

mortal ivy Jun 6, 2019, 9:47 PM

#

@meager quiver so lock picking is cheating, even though it's a realistic option?

#

I bet someone said that about car's at first too

#

Also like not being able to find a single saw or sledge within the entire 2- story area of rosewood is somehow valid?

#

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=714715539

#

i think i posted the same twice but i'm tired and the link confused me 😅

#

but this is the mod i'm speaking of. I think personally it's a bit OP, cuz of 2 factors, there isn't a skill system to create balance with how likely you are to succeed at picking a lock. and 2 the pin's you use from paperclips don't have a durability bar. Realistically every time you use one, the pin should degrade a little. And if you fail to pick a lock i'd say 75% chance of it just snapping.

#

@mortal ivy I noted you cuz you are a modder and have quite a number of things that i think would pair with this idea. I myself know nothing of coding. If i were to make mods for the game it'd be maps at most.

#

lol i just mentioned myself

@drifting ore Hello my dear friend. Im here to tell you what you don't need to know lua for music mod cuz you will understand code intuitively. It's simple as ABC. You can change items from vinyl records to cds in script of this mod, but don't forget to create new icons for it. If you need help pm me later.

#

@drifting ore just don't. PZ can't handle building higher than 4 floors without lags. So you can't create immersive russian city without crying))) But Odintsovo was really great, except tiles that doesn't match russian architectural ensemble (post-soviet atmosphere and these ugly playgrounds and dirty scrapyard).

drifting ore Jun 10, 2019, 10:55 AM

#

hey bro, i think you can consider higher building because the roadmap of the game is to expand to Louisville, which will probably have 8+ floors buildings

#

so there will probably be optimization going on

would it be possible to make a "Mod Manger" mod type mod? as in something that adds a button for Disable All, and lets players create set lists and save them .

spark crystal Jun 11, 2019, 7:00 AM

#

Maybe not a mod, but an external program would be technically possible, for sharing lists at least.

#

In the /Zomboid/mods folder, there's a txt for 'loaded.txt' - but I think it contains only the names of the items

#

I don't think steam workshop has anything like an API to subscribe mods based on an ID or anything like that, so the set list would only serve the purpose of activating or disabling mods, they'd have to be in the users list already

quasi geode Jun 11, 2019, 7:07 AM

the mod activation screen (and the whole main menu/options) is in the lua components and entirely modable

spark crystal Jun 11, 2019, 7:11 AM

Well there you go - would by the sounds of it be quite achievable to create a disable all button, and an export mod list button (potentially with workshop IDs, too - not sure on the power of the lua system behind it - this also wouldn't help non-steam users)

not sure how possible some of it would be in lua but it would be great just to have the option to save your active list ( say the same way you save a character build ), and exporting them would be great too, so you could share.

Clothing modding doesn't really exist outside of skin retextures (which there are very few of)

This moment when MrDanny is faster then a bot lol

willow estuary Jun 19, 2019, 5:25 AM

So I have some ideas for some multiplayer server mods that I would like to see, and am willing to try coding, but from what I gather, modding has limited scope to effect the base game?

If anyone has any opinions of whether these are feasible or not, please lemme know?

Mod Ideas:

A mod that makes safehouse owners able to individually set their safehouse settings to allow tresspassers and/or looters. For guests, businesses, rp.
A mod that allows, for servers that don't display usernames, faction members to see the usernames of fellow faction members.
2a) Additionally, if the mod allowed two faction owners to mutually set it to that their member faction names or tags display to members of both factions. For alliances and declared warfare.
A mod that allows admin to lay down zones, similar to PVP exclusion zones, that disallow hotwiring, vehicle window breaking, and accessing the mechanics interface unless the character ha sthe key for the vehicle on them. This is to allow people to use safezones, trade hubs, w/o getting their cars stolen or messed with.
A mod that would would integrate with a discord bot so that a discord channel would be broadcast on on eof the radio stations; and that player broadcasts on the same radio channel would appear in the discord channel. This is to allow immersive integration of discord with an in-game interface while also making radios more useful.
4b) Ideally, being able to integrate multiple discord channels with multiple radio channels.

I've started looking at the java and lua code, but if anyone know if any of the ideas are impossible OR knows of any examples to help me write them please lemme know? thanks!

quasi geode Jun 19, 2019, 4:40 PM

#

possible, but some major modifications and investment for 1 and 3. You'll have to modify some rather critical files like the default context menus, which will be a constant breakage and rewrite pretty much every PZ update
2 shouldn't be overly difficult, but maybe hackish...might have to manually draw the names to screen using backwards methods (havent investigated this, so cant really say)
4 will be the most difficult, since both the discord and radios features are pretty much contained within the java.

willow estuary Jun 19, 2019, 11:36 PM

#

@quasi geode thanks for the tips!

I was hoping that #3 could be handled via admin commands?

#

Maybe even #1 could be handled by commands in chat instead of the menu? Like the /releasesafehouse command?

wild gazelle Jun 20, 2019, 12:21 AM

#

@willow estuary
#1 and #2 are both semi-supported functions of the eris_minimap mod (adding people to a safehouse which you own, removing members from a house you own, showing names of nearby players on the map when names are hidden globally).

If it's possible to do this per safehouse (isn't trespass/looting safehouses a global setting?) could create a standalone mod for it pretty easily, the chat method would be a good way to do it without having to modify or create new UI elements. If it's per-safehouse, I'll be adding it to minimap anyway :)

Just showing usernames of fellow faction members - hmm, that sounds like a good addition for some servers. Made a note for possible future update.

#3 would be simple if the goal was just disallowing right clicking, blocking access to vehicles from keypresses and damage would not be so simple (how would this stop people messing up a car with guns?).

#4 could be quite difficult. A server side mod could perhaps do this by echoing all radio chat to global chat in-game, with a client side mod making the chat box ignore lines which are intended for the discord bot to pass on. Then maybe it could send all chat to one channel, dodgy hack but it could possibly do the job.

No idea how multiple output channels could be achieved.

To have discord chat come out on a radio channel, the mod would need to run in reverse too, converting global message to radio then broadcast it again... Don't think it would work as easily in reverse.

willow estuary Jun 20, 2019, 1:18 AM

#

@wild gazelle Thanks for the advice!

Re 1, yeah, I was looking at the SSR Faction Safehouse Raiding mod, code and it MAY involve messing with the java?
But it should be theoretically possible to attach, or use, a variable associated with safehouse zones to make local exceptions.

#3, it looks like the vehicle interface is all Lua, so if I can figure out zones, and they can be handled with Lua, it should be easy to make exceptions for specific actions in a zone?
I don't care that much about shooting out windows, just want the means to install some sort of vehicle security zones to community hub areas?

wild gazelle Jun 20, 2019, 1:27 AM

#

#1, I haven't looked at this mod but I suspect it does, if that option isn't available per safehouse in vanilla it would surely have to be adding that somewhere.

#3 - I'll put some stuff together over my lunch break and send it over to you if you'd like a jumping off point. I've got a fair bit of what you might need in parts of other mods.

willow estuary Jun 20, 2019, 1:37 AM

#

@wild gazelle Thank you very much! Not gonna lie, I could really benefit from a jumping off point 😃

quasi geode Jun 20, 2019, 2:17 AM

#

i dont see a need for java edits. most of the safehouse blockers for interacting with things is in the lua. person right clicks or looks in a container...lua checks if its a safehouse, then checks if the player is on the access list. The java contains the safehouse's bounding box, and access lists but modifying these are not required.
Store your custom safehouse settings in lua instead of the java. Since the access checks are in lua and stuff like the membership window as well, theres no need to screw with the java

willow estuary Jun 20, 2019, 2:21 AM

#

Killer, you guys are helping me out immensely with this!

quasi geode Jun 20, 2019, 2:33 AM

#

i was tempted to mess with the safehouses more but decided it wasnt going to be worth it. The safehouses are actually a x/y x2/y2 box, which is what i used for the non-residential hack...just getting the bounding box myself and adding that....and since the SH's are recorded as a box (not a building) defining a custom zone outside as a SH is very likely possible...like a player built structure

#

the reason i decided not to pursue that idea.....the checks in the lua for SH's basically check first if the player is actually in a building...overwriting these checks will lead to some very high maintenance code. Like the rightclick context menu if i remember right was a 900 line function (or so, idr exactly and i'm not checking atm) . Its pretty much a given every pz update this function will change, new menu items added etc

#

these checkpoints are the same spots you'd need to edit

wild gazelle Jun 20, 2019, 2:46 AM

#

@quasi geode It's absolutely do-able. I have actually made this mod 😎. To tackle the safehouse bounding issue just iterate over all safehouse bounds and check that against the right clicked tile location. If it's inside the bounds then give an option to view. No need to edit the existing system. Hasn't broken on an update yet.

#

Biggest issue with custom safezones? You'd have to be pretty crazy to enable it for users on a public server, the opportunities to grief and block access to areas are far too great. As an admin tool it works a treat.

#

My whole custom safezone mod comes in at ~500 lines and most of that is just ported copies of the UI elements for admin options.

#

HMU if you want a copy of it, I may release this next month around my birthday purely as an admin tool.

quasi geode Jun 20, 2019, 2:51 AM

#

oh its easy to see if the area is in the box or not...but some of the checks for the building are inside the vanilla context menu function..idr where the container access checks are

#

tbh though i didn't overly investigate the idea. seemed like it would lead to another mod i didn't want to maintain 😄

wild gazelle Jun 20, 2019, 2:54 AM

#

Seems to work just fine with these settings: Safehouse looting: off, trespass: off. We use it on TGODz to run The Pub, it has private storage areas for staff. Forgot we were talking about enabling trespass, etc. That's not built into it, it wasn't intended to be used on other servers or with different settings.

#

Yeah I know what you mean buddy... One more mod.

willow estuary Jun 20, 2019, 3:01 AM

#

I was wondering what was up with the funky safehouse zones on TGODz.

willow estuary Jun 20, 2019, 4:15 AM

#

Albeit, this would be a cludge, but you could define the Safe Parking zones in a text file and sidestep the entire admin interface issue?

wild gazelle Jun 20, 2019, 4:52 AM

#

@placid delta super survivors are getting stuck near fences and not attacking zombies.... they stay still and let the zombies kill them

no point trying to fix it now, it'l need an overhaul after next update hits anyway, whole state change system is replaced with anim system.
i'll likely fix it all up after the update is final, assuming its not too time consuming. ....and maybe a bit more content using the new costumes

@rugged marsh you can take a look at various tutorials & resources here [https://theindiestone.com/forums/index.php?/forum/53-tutorials-resources/]

Regarding character animations and models, there's little modding support currently (with massive changes for the future if you're not aware of the dev blogs)

The Indie Stone Forums

Tutorials & Resources

The place to learn and gather everything you could need for modding PZ!
