[visual sage]

Because I did ask on the workshop mod page but I still haven't got anyone to reply yet

[gritty sierra]

they would say mostly the same, "do it at your own risk, not supported"

because it isnt supported

[visual sage]

gotcha, I'll make a back up of my save and try it

[covert summit]

Hey ho guys

Is that means...

Here in ProceduralDistributions_HC from Hydrocraft we have couple of value mistakes or unupdated stuff?

So Original "Distributions" file says it must be value from 0 to 1

[sour island]

Isn't weightChance different to the individual chance?

Also, individual chance is effectively out of 100

@covert summit

[exotic ember]

Hey anyone familiar with that True Music mod?

well more specifically any technical knowledge on it?

[zenith oak]

Does anyone know how one could go about making the following text red?
/Haven't found this book yet./

[grave topaz]

I think that's all that PZ needs. Despite not having NPCS pause for a while to listen to someone I think it adds a lot to the game. Great job!

approximately how many dialogues will it have?

[abstract raptor]

For naturally Mortal Radio and echo Station it lasts 6 days in game

But

Broadcasts at 7 different times a day

[fading prawn]

Who voices everyone? I remember one of the survivor radio had full songs, And some voices

[abstract raptor]

Scarlet voices Erin, Penelope is voiced by Annakath and Kyle is voiced by Kurokaze. Reverend dan is voiced by TrentMichealT and Jim from classical for the dead is voiced by DatVoiceGuy.

[fading prawn]

Awesome! They just voice actors? I don’t think i’ve ever heard of them

[abstract raptor]

Theyre not really members of the PZ community

[undone elbow]

First show the code that makes this text.)

[zenith oak]

I asked the question on behalf of another person - so I don't have the code at hand, the person in question got a pending invitation to Discord now.
Appreciate your reply none the less - thank you!

[fair frost]

Louisville Fire Department and one of the 3 Louisville EMS Vehicles

[warped night]

cool! great work

[fair frost]

thanks

[errant meteor]

Any hope of seeing survivor version?

[kind surge]

I don't know if this will work for item tooltips, but the vanilla code for displaying repair tooltips uses RGB tags to change the text color. They are just added directly into the string of text you want to display. Example: tooltip = "Generic text. Blah blah. <LINE> RGB:1,0,0This text is red. RGB:1,1,1Text back to white."

[fair frost]

wdym

[errant meteor]

beefed up, steel bars, maybe a plow

[fair frost]

um that would prolly need modified model with those

so unlikely to happen

[errant meteor]

k

[fair frost]

but trashed ambulance skin wise

as in graffiti and shit

yeah

possible

[drifting ore]

Looks good Jan, good stuff mate

[tranquil kernel]

Guys is there any way to check if player is inside of the building or outside?

[fair frost]

Thanks

[dry chasm]

player:getBuilding() or something IIRC Blair's answer seems to be better :3

[willow estuary]

local player = getPlayer()
local isOutside = player:isOutside()

should work, where isOutside will be true or false

if you already have the player object, then the getPlayer() part is unnecessary.

[tranquil kernel]

Ok, thank you guys

[little vessel]

Anyone familiar with the ItemTweakerAPI can lend me a hand?
I'm trying to change the display name of the M14 and the .308 Clip - both have the same name, which had me confused a few times... My code looks like this:

if getActivatedMods():contains("ItemTweakerAPI") then
require("ItemTweaker_Core");
else return end

-----Base
--Magazine
TweakItem("Base.M14Clip","DisplayCategory","WepAmmoMag");
TweakItem("Base.M14Clip","DisplayName","M14Mag");
TweakItem("Base.308Clip","DisplayName","M70Mag");

Display Category changes fine, but no matter what I do, the name of the items in-game don't change. First I tried putting the new names directly on the code, but now I'm using a Items_EN file that looks like this:

Items_EN = {
    DisplayName_M14Mag                 = "M14 - .308 Magazine",
    DisplayName_M70Mag                 = "M70 - .308 Magazine",
}

Either way it doesn't work and I have no clue why. Even tested in a fresh new game. Also tried using ItemName but to no avail.

No other mods touch these items except Harry's Better Vanilla Ammo Icons - it uses icon tweaker for the icon, and that is another problem I need to solve as the M14 Clip icon doesn't show for some reason.

[pearl prism]

I don't understand anything about the subject, but I would try to change the name of your MOD to something with the first letter being Z.

I've had similar problems due to my mod being read before the mod I wanted to change, so the change didn't occur..

[undone crag]

Maybe the item's instance's name is stored in the save file. You could try appearing a new item and check its name. The game was saving a weapon's reach in the save file.

[dry chasm]

IIRC display name gets updated nontheless (you can change language mid-play through, just return to menu, change language, load save game)
Though, IIRC i read something about not to use Items_XX.txt but rather ItemName_XX.txt, may that be the issue?

[undone crag]

Maybe the DisplayName is stored in the save file for each item. Then the game checks translations for the displayname or the item whats-it-called.

[sour island]

Trying to include a Korean translation to a mod - but the file isn't being read for some reason.

Doing it the same way as all the others...but it's appearing in English

[nimble spoke]

name is stored only if an item was renamed somehow

[willow estuary]

In \media\lua\shared\Translate\EN put

[nimble spoke]

for example in evolved recipes

[little vessel]

Bloody hell I forgot about the Base part. Thanks everyone for the help!

[little vessel]

Tried that but no dice. Did a new save game, the problem persisted.

[little vessel]

Nope, no dice.

Items_EN = {
    ItemName_Base.M14Mag                 = "M14 - .308 Magazine",
    ItemName_Base.M70Mag                 = "M70 - .308 Magazine",
}

[little vessel]

I'm changing vanilla so that shouldn't be an issue.

[willow estuary]

🤷

My guess is that you either need to restart for the translation mumjo jumbo to work; that something else you did is interfering; or if you're just modifying vanilla files, that's the issue?

[kind surge]

Is your filename the same as what Blair provided? And it looks like your list is named Items_EN rather than ItemNames_EN. I don't have much experience with the translation string system, but I do know that the filenames and list names need to be what the game is expecting and it looks like vanilla is using ItemNames_EN for the vanilla strings.

[little vessel]

I tried that, everything as Blair provided. The result is this.

In this case I'm not using ItemTweaker - I commented it out, I'm just rewriting the "translation" files. My translation file, named ItemName_EN.txt, looks like this

ItemName_EN = {
ItemName_Base.M14Clip = "M14 - .308 Magazine",
ItemName_Base.308Clip = "M70 - .308 Magazine",
}

Curiously enough, one magazine changes name while the other one doesn't. I will do a few more tests, without mods, to see what happens. But I'm stumped.

[little vessel]

And solved. The problem was twofold:
Me using the outdated DisplayName

/* OUTDATED FORMAT
 * All changes and translations should go to ItemName_XX.txt instead of in Items_XX.txt.
 * DisplayName_<XX> breaks whenever the English DisplayName changes. 
 * Using ItemName_XX.txt makes sure your translations don't break with changes to the English names.
 */

Because I was copying other mods. So Shurutsue and Blair were right. And the last problem was that another mod, Harry Better Vanilla Weapons, was also renaming the magazine (for the same thing vanilla renames, for some reason) and was taking precedence. So PapaChad was also right.

[little vessel]

And thanks everyone for all the help!

[dawn lynx]

local function removeWeight()
    local items = getAllItems()
    local sz = items:size()
    for i = sz-1,0,-1 do
        local item = items:get(i)

    end
end

Events.OnPreMapLoad.Add(removeWeight)
```Info: I have this in the shared folder. It works fine in single player, however, in multiplayer the capacity is only increased on containers I spawn in - even on brand new worlds.

Any reason why this would be happening and any suggestions on how to fix it?? Thank you

[vestal umbra]

Hey guys, where can I find mods that I've subscribed to? I checked in the 'steamapps\workshop\content\108600' but there's three mods there that I never even subscribed to to my knowledge. I want to make a mod of my own so I figured I'd snoop around a bit and see how others have worked on mods.

[vestal umbra]

I'm not super knowledgable yet but I do recall there being two folders in your scripts. One for singleplayer and one for multiplayer. Have you placed your scripts in the correct folders?

[dawn lynx]

steamapps\workshop\content\108600 only holds the mods you download whilst joining a server, not really sure where they're located either so I always just use https://steamworkshopdownloader.io then you can just copy the link to the workshop item you'd like to download and it'll download as a zip

[vestal umbra]

Oh sweet, thanks!

[dawn lynx]

I put it in shared which is used for both multiplayer and singleplayer - and the code is running, as ones I spawn via commands/cheat menu have increased capacity

[dry chasm]

Steam Project Zomboid Workshop -> at the "top" (where the search bar is rather, slightly lower) on the left "Browse" -> Subscribed Items
There you should see all you're currently subscribed to.
Regarding where they're located, they should be , to my knowledge, located at steamapps\workshop\content\108600
If you, however, uninstalled the game and reinstalled on a different drive, try to check over on the different drive, it may just be there now, unsure, they should be there though.

[vestal umbra]

What HYPE said works very well.

I can download the mod and inspect it

but thank you Shuru.

[dawn lynx]

Glad its working well, I also had that issue and was able to find that website fortunately

[rocky otter]

Does anyone have a minimap mod that works with all map mods?

or atleast addons to the minimap mod that allow it to work on all maps?

[dry chasm]

most map mods i know of have a mod for eris minimap mod (or whatever it was called unsure) if i remember correctly

[rocky otter]

id need a plugin for that

[dry chasm]

hm?

[fallow bridge]

doesn't exist

you have to get the eris minimap addition mods

[rocky otter]

but if i run the addon and forget to run the map itll screw up the minimap 🤔
bloody hell..

[rocky otter]

Does the Remove Vanilla Cars and the BETA BETA BETA Vehicle mod clash or do they go well together?

as well as these 2

[dry chasm]

never really used those much, but there's the possibility of setting hard-requirements for mods (disabling the map would disable the minimap mod as well as example, if the minimap mod has it as a requirement)
If that is not the case, you could ask the respective mod-author to add that, or do it yourself (keep in mind, updates to the mod would overwrite your changes.)
for that a simple line in mod.info with require=modid (the mod's id defined in the mod.info of the other mod) should suffice i believe.

and, due to it requiring usually 2, you can add multiple by require=modid1,modid2

[swift shadow]

Huh, I wasn't aware there were minimap mods for PZ.

goes to check the workshop

[violet garden]

i use all of this mods together and no issues

but the remove vanilla cars is old and not updated in a while so idk about that, i avoid using it

[sour island]

Most mods flow together pretty well in my experience- especially if they're adding/removing established content like cars/items OR adding all new features entirely.

It's the middle-ground mods that change core/system features that you have to watch out for. Stuff that adds slots, messes with GUI/HUDs how timed actions work etc. If one of the authors doesn't care to write it in a way that hands off function to the next mod.

Distro changes are included in that.

[pearl prism]

Hey guys i need some help. I took this from Events Wiki and its not working.

    if (ZombRand(3) == 0) then --selects a random number between 0-3
        player:getInventory():AddItem("Screwdriver")
    end
end
Events.OnEnterVehicle.Add(EnteredVehicle);```
Am I missing something here?

[sour island]

Had a real bitch of a time getting options menu to work with sandbox+ cause the author didn't handoff a very tiny part. If you ever used mod options and sandbox+ and none of your options saved that's why.

[sour island]

Are you sure the first parameter is the player object? Do you have any errors?

Also ZombRand(3) is not 0-3

3 digits = 0, 1, 2

[pearl prism]

No error message, just nothing happens

I even changed the code to something like:
if (ZombRand(1) == 0) then
to get 50%

[sour island]

Try adding a line inside of entered vehicle.

print("PapaChad:".. tostring(player))

The number you put in ZombRand is how many number you count starting from 0

ZombRand(1) = 0 == 100%

[pearl prism]

Yes, I know this trick. It starts from Zero and not from One

[sour island]

Yes but do you understand it doesn't go upto the number you put?

ZombRand(10) = 0-9

[pearl prism]

"ZombRand(1) = 0 == 100%"
this is a 50% not a 100%, or am I wrong?

[sour island]

It's counting including 0, or am I mistaken?

If you count 10 numbers starting from 0, you go upto 9. If you put 1 you only go upto 0.

[dry chasm]

IIRC it does not include the number you put in, but everything below.
So you could say:
ZombRand(10) = number between 1 and 10 - 1

if that makes it simpler to understand o.o

[sour island]

Another way, use your fingers where the first is 0

And try counting to 10

Unless you have an extra finger (or sadly less) you should end up on 9

[pearl prism]

I think I had learned wrong the ZombRand "random" number

[sour island]

Also to read the print message you need -debug set in your launch options or open the console.txt found in your user folder

[pearl prism]

I need to configure this

[sour island]

It happens, it's not intuitive for everyday use and proof why it took humans 20k years to figure out 0.

[pearl prism]

lol

[sour island]

ZombRand also can have 2 numbers, for minimum and max, but I'm actually not sure if it counts upto max or max-1

[pearl prism]

I will accept this Cope

by the way

[sour island]

To configure debug just go to launch options in steam -- right click the game

And there's a bar for text

-debug

[pearl prism]

i got it

[sour island]

You'll also get a few extra menus in game for testing

[pearl prism]

I put the Lua Script in the "client" folder, is there any difference? Would it be to put in the "server" folder?

[dry chasm]

still max -1 with the second argument

function doTestStuff(imax)
    local results = {};
    for i = 1, imax do
        table.insert(results, ZombRand(1,10));
    end
    local min =  99999999;
    local max = -99999999;
    for _,v in pairs(results) do
        if v < min then
            min = v;
        end
        if v > max then
            max = v;
        end
    end
    print("ZombRand(1,10) min: ".. min .. ", max: ".. max .. ", iterations: " ..imax)
end

doTestStuff(10000);
-- prints: ZombRand(1,10) min: 1, max: 9, iterations: 10000

[sour island]

I kind of hate that

[dry chasm]

that it doesn't include the max?

[sour island]

Yeah

Interally it should just add the 1 for cases with both parameters

Also I probably need to go back to review my uses

[weary matrix]

Hi, is it possible to add new tiles without overwriting the .pack files? Otherwise it means I'd have to update my mod for every game update

[sour island]

I believe when MP is involved it has impact or will have impact -- for now it only effects some variables based on who is the client.

[dry quail]

Trying to add place able 3d bags from my backpack mod but can't figure out how to make it work. I thought adding a worldstaticmodel along with an fbx file would do the trick, but I suspect that the fbx file needs to follow a certain structure. If anyone has any knowledge on this I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

[dry chasm]

do you have a script in which it defines the model? - not sure for all cases - but if not, you could definitely try that.

media\scripts\models_items.txt for example contains a lot of those for reference

[dry quail]

I do have them defined as items along with a worldStaticModel with the name of the bag .fbx file.

[dry chasm]

but no

model bagname
{
  mesh = fbx name,
  texture = texturepath,
}

?

[dry quail]

None of that no, I don't have a model definition

I'll try it

[pearl prism]

Didn't print anything on my debug, I think the event has been removed

[dry chasm]

example with an existing backpack:

    model SchoolBag
    {
        mesh = skinned\backpacks\m_schoolbag,
        texture = schoolbag_black,
    }

[dry quail]

Sweet, is that from model_items.txt ?

[dry chasm]

yep

[dry quail]

I think that's all I needed. Thank you so much!

[dry chasm]

did a quick test via console:

local function testfunc(pl)
    print(pl);
end

Events.OnEnterVehicle.Add(testfunc);

It did, for me, print the line 👀

[pearl prism]

Yes, but the wiki code is finished and it was supposed to give an item.

I must be making some stupid mistake

[sour island]

Try putting the file inside of client

Or in server if you have it in client

Also, what did you get printed @dry chasm - I was curious if the first parameter passed is a player object or ID

[royal ridge]

how do I add an item to a container?

[dry chasm]

the object

[royal ridge]

I got this
local fonSquare = ISMoveableSpriteProps:findOnSquare(panelSquare, "solarmod_tileset_01_36") local container = fonSquare:getContainer() container:addItem("ISA.SolarPanel")

it doesn't work, it doesnt seem to find the container

ERROR: General , 1634909839773> ExceptionLogger.logException> Exception thrown java.lang.RuntimeException: attempted index: getContainer of non-table: null at KahluaThread.tableget line:1689.

[dry chasm]

it didn't get the object, not the container

meaning the ISMoveableSpriteProps:findOnSquare(panelSquare, "solarmod_tileset_01_36") returned "null" (nothing at all)

[pearl prism]

lol, I switched to Server so it worked, then I went back to Client and it kept working. It must have been some RAM bug

[sour island]

Perhaps you missed the message, sometimes console gets flooded with other debug stuff

[exotic ember]

ANyone familiar with the True Music mod?

Just got a couple o questions regarding peoples experience with it and any potential future updates.

[dry quail]

@dry chasm sorry to bother you again. I added a model definition in the same file where I created the item def. It still doesn't work.

And when I create my own models_items.txt it overrides the pz one and breaks all ground models lol. Do I need to import the pz one somehow and if so how would I go about this.

[dry chasm]

the name of the file doesn't really matter, so long as it's in the correct location!
So just name it differently

[dry quail]

gotcha I'll try it with a different name but in the same location of the one in the pz directory

[dry chasm]

also - do you have it set as module Base at the beginning of the script?

[dry quail]

Yup

[dry chasm]

hmm

[dry quail]

Trying your same loc, dif name solution. Might be what's happening

darn

Still won't let me lol. Might be my fbx so I'll try using one of the pz ones

[dry chasm]

or it might be the item script not correctly referencing the model

[dry quail]

How to you format a comment for code, just so its more readable for you

or sorry a discordm essage*

[dry chasm]

``` <- this before the code and after

[dry quail]

sweet

[dry chasm]

if it's for lua, you write lua right after the first triple backtick

[dry quail]

item Bag_Improvised_Backpack
        {
            WeightReduction    =    60,
            Weight    =    1,
            Type    =    Container,
            Capacity    =    15,
            DisplayName    =    Improvised Backpack,
            CanBeEquipped = Back,
        Icon    =    Improvised_Backpack,
            OpenSound   =   OpenClothBag,
            CloseSound   =   CloseClothBag,
            PutInSound   =   PutItemInBag,
            ClothingItem = Bag_Improvised_Backpack,
            BloodLocation = Bag,
            RunSpeedModifier = 0.97,
            AttachmentReplacement = Bag,
            ReplaceInSecondHand = Bag_Improvised_Backpack_LHand holdingbagleft,
            ReplaceInPrimaryHand = Bag_Improvised_Backpack_RHand holdingbagright,
        WorldStaticModel = Improvised_Backpack_Ground,
        }

this is incased in module Base {}

[dry chasm]

and the model script?

[dry quail]

module Base {
    model Improvised_Backpack
    {
        mesh = Skinned\Backpacks\M_Improvised_Backpack,
        texture = Bag_Improvised_Backpack,
    }
}

[dry chasm]

also, just for simplicity sake, this'll work as well:
Selecting the code via holding mouse button (doesn't accept ctrl+a it seems) and then selecting the <> one (i believe it was)

[dry quail]

Not sure if it's case sensitive but if it is the cases matches for directory names and file name

Ah sweet

[dry chasm]

the WorldStaticModel should be Improvised_Backpack in that case

[dry quail]

Trying it out

Ah so bags have 4 model definitions, normal/back, right hand, left hand and ground?

You are magnificent sir

[dry chasm]

i believe one should be enough if you include attachment settings to it, but regarding how the item script accepts them and all, you'll have to ask someone else for that (never really made any models and such)

[sour island]

World models only have _ground cause they're a different orientation than in hand -- it's not automatic

[dry quail]

I see!

[sour island]

Scripts can be very .... Sporadic in how they work

Do you have a hobostick variation?

[dry quail]

If I figure out how to edit holding positions one day, that's on my list for sure

[sour island]

Nice

I think that's where the attachment models come in but I don't know much about rigging models

[dry quail]

I think in this case it would be related to anims

[sour island]

Clothing files and XMLs in general look like sloggs to deal with ._.

[dry quail]

They really are, but the possibilities that they offer counters that curse lol

[dry chasm]

"Oh, let's get a guid for this item into this xml and reference this xml/guid with that xml for this and that with it's own guid and let's not forget the item script and and and"
That's too much spaghetti for me 😓

[royal ridge]

now it is giving me this error, I was calling the function before spawning the object, what does this mean?

Oh!

try AddItem

instead

https://projectzomboid.com/modding/zombie/inventory/ItemContainer.html
according to here (may be outdated but who knows)
the addItem requires an item itself, while AddItem can have both options (and more)

so if truely necessary to use addItem, try to create the item first, then pass it into the addItem, otherwise use AddItem

[royal ridge]

it worked, thank you!

this is a great modding community, by the way, always so friendly and helpful.

Honey I Shrunk the Zombies: The Mod Adaption of This Summer's Hit Film Based On An Award Winning Novela

[dry chasm]

ant sized zombies would be terrible 🤔 getting eaten alive by a horde of ants and as soon as even one bite goes through, it's just a matter of time of shrinking oneself

[weary matrix]

any clue how to change the speed of a zombie?

not from sandbox settings that is

[nimble spoke]

zombie:setSpeed() <--- accepts values from 1 to 5 if I remember correctly

[fading prawn]

@craggy furnace Hey

So for the cap, This is all it shows

[craggy furnace]

oh curious

[fading prawn]

It doesn't even say your swat stuff is in the game

[craggy furnace]

people were saying cap but there are two kinds

its not called SWAT

[fading prawn]

Oh?

[craggy furnace]

search "police tactical"

[fading prawn]

Well okay!

I was wrong, police tactical showed up

Well thanks! I guess the hat is just bugged

[craggy furnace]

yeah ill fix that right away

i havent touched this mod in a hot second since ive been away on helicopters

[fading prawn]

Weird

The reversed cap works

[craggy furnace]

thanks that narrows it

i am gonna delete the backend since its redundant anyways

ill try to add this fashion montage too

[fading prawn]

Well thanks! Sorry for wasting so much of your time lol

[craggy furnace]

oh no

i want this

thank you

[fading prawn]

Mods awesome M8, it really is fun to play with

[weary matrix]

@nimble spoke I can't find a setSpeed() method on IsoZombie: https://projectzomboid.com/modding/index.html?zombie/characters/IsoZombie.html
there's:

• DoZombieSpeeds(float spMod)
• setSpeedMod(float speedMod)
• setPathSpeed(float PathSpeed)
  Not sure if any of those is really doing what I need

[craggy furnace]

thanks

i should have the cap fixed in 10

need to do something else but then ill push it

[fading prawn]

Alrighty! Awesome!

You work fast!

[craggy furnace]

@fading prawn patch pushed test it?

[fading prawn]

Sure!

[nimble spoke]

sorry. zombie:changeSpeed() <--- 1 to 5 and then zombie:DoZombieStats() because apparently it doesn't get used/saved without it

keep in mind that one of the int values is for the zombie that leans against walls, and 1 or 2 of them for crawlers, I don't remember which though

one of them is for sprinters

[weary matrix]

thx

[woven pecan]

This a ridiculous question but would raytracing even be possible in zomboid? hahaha

[craggy furnace]

Does the Raven Creek mod work for the current beta build? I heard 41.55 broke a lot of existing loot tables for mods among other things.

[worldly olive]

Hi hi!!
Does somebody knows how to obtain the light levels of the tile where the player is?

[dry chasm]

unsure, though possibly getPlayer():getSquare():getLightcache()

but that could potentially be related to the visibility as well? 🤷‍♂️

[worldly olive]

Thanks!!
Will check it!!

[magic meteor]

Not a modder... anyone know how to fix the spawnrates for certain vehicles once you are in the vehicledistrobutions?

[dim geode]

Someone should mod zombies into cars

[thin hornet]

So i'm thinking about a mod to make the computer useful but this would to be a lot of work Might just add some sort of notepad software for now but was thinking about automating stuff around the house like lights... any idea or suggestion or maybe that's too far fetch for a mod idea.

Maybe some sort of email system when MP is released where you can send mail to other player which are like private message that you can read as many time you want until you delete it.

Maybe something like inserting video games to play to help with boredom

[willow estuary]

That sounds absolutely doable, and something people would welcome for mp and rp I'm sure.
My only suggestion is that consider making some sort of email server to handle the emails? There may be existing open lua code that does 90% of the work already.

The two options that come to mind as for how to store the email server data is either save/loading text files, or using the newish global mod data.

[sour island]

iirc there's some somewhat functional computers already in game?

[thin hornet]

@willow estuary could save mails in a txt file by player username
@sour island is there?

[sour island]

I remember seeing someone mentioning a facility on the map with a security system / computer

I know Turbo is into that stuff

[thin hornet]

Never encountered a functional computer but i guess it would be a simple option right click menu for something specific

I know some mod require a computer for some recipe/crafting but not as a functional computer tho

[sour island]

it's very bare bones, but could provide some insights

[willow estuary]

Well as you are at a disadvantage trying to develop this w/o b41 MP, that saving mails by email address could serve as an interim development solution?
And would also work easier with existing email server code examples? Although I guess an actual email server is overkill if you just save emails to disk by user so I was overthinking that 😄

[sour island]

I don't think he wants to actually send emails

[thin hornet]

for each user could have a database like "mails/<username>/<from>_<title>.txt
first line would be the From <username>
then the rest would be the body

[sour island]

would a stored table be more intensive for reading?

[willow estuary]

Yeah, sounds like you got it sorted out. 👍

[thin hornet]

Maybe just load the files when server start into a table.
And Update that table as mail are sent and also create the file for next restart

something something

[sour island]

you could nest them as strings

[thin hornet]

anyway the MP part is really not gonna be done until MP is release

[sour island]

{{sender=x,reciever=y,contents=z},{sender=x,reciever=y,contents=z},{sender=x,reciever=y,contents=z}}
etc

[thin hornet]

yeah looks good

[sour island]

you wouldn't really need MP tbf

at most the only part that would need to change would be identifying the player

the entire functional part will be the same

[thin hornet]

i mean i wouldnt spend time on that feature as i dont know how long it will take for MP

[sour island]

true

[thin hornet]

but yeah i understand the thing wont change that much

i guess it will still be playerObj = getSpecificPlayer(player)

[sour island]

I don't think you can save objects in tables using modData

or probably on text in any case

I know it doesn't work for player's modData

has to be strings, numbers, or tables

and every table recursively has the same rules

For Skill Recovery Journal I use a combination of SteamID and player cop-op ID

[thin hornet]

each player could receive all their email at connection and save it temporary in memory this way they only have access to their own mails and server would probably keep a copy locally in a file

I seen mod where you can play arcade machine

does it actually help with boredom

or its just a visual thing

[sour island]

I don't know if there's an actual game but I think it relieves boredom

[thin hornet]

cause i been listening to diskplayer for helping my character boredom but it doesnt work all the time. I think it only help once.

[sour island]

hm

[thin hornet]

so i was thinking of a computer to "play" some game to relieve boredom

which is so easy to do

[grizzled grove]

I have a vague memory of seeing someone's computer UI demo somewhere in the past couple of years. Who's was that?

[thin hornet]

seems like hydrocraft would have something related to computer
http://undeniable.info/pz/wiki/item.php?Name=HCComputerdesktop

and also apparently there is the sprite for a turned on computer screen in the base game

[sour island]

I can't seem to find it in the java, but I swear I saw/heard about Turbo's computer systems for security

[thin hornet]

i also cant find anything on google about any sort of computer system

[marsh beacon]

The only time I have seen computers being worked on was in the blogs

[sour island]

https://projectzomboid.com/blog/news/2020/06/parazedics/

Did we ever get that dial?

man I need to start playing again

Hey chat. Got a question

is there a mod for prying open things with a crowbar? im a burglar with one and i was expecting i can avoid lockipicking or smashing something with just prying it open but i just found out that not a thing 😄

[dry chasm]

IIRC this mod did add something like that https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2368058459

[coral lichen]

ye i catched that one but im asking if there is one for crowbars to pry open things not for lockpicking

[dry chasm]

well, it does add the crowbar part too

but for ONLY the crowbar part, im not sure.

Even Worse Looting also locks certain container so you need either a key or a crowbat

I thought it only affected the actual loot tables? Interesting.

[atomic vigil]

my hyddrocraft tip, pick a end teir goal, list components, then what you need to make THOSE commponents on and on and on.

[swift shadow]

nods

[atomic vigil]

keep an idea wheere stuff is,, and make a base with TONS of storage, cause when you get to the 'stripping the town' stage, you will have alot of stuff to use.

also craft helper mod is invaluable when using hydrocraft

[swift shadow]

Makes sense.

[atomic vigil]

rmb on an item and see what you can craft with it ^_^

imho its to much invintory management for not enough end game reward.

[swift shadow]

I really do need to learn the shortcut commands for PZ.

Any mods that compliment Hydrocraft well?

[sour island]

Hydrocraft is encompassing enough that you'd do better to focus on QoL mods I'd imagine.

[sour island]

Also looking at the workshop - very happy to see people using tags.

[storm bane]

You think the game creators will revamp cars?

Or add more?

[sour island]

There's alot of additions via mods - including reskins for police cars

Idk where a revamp falls on the roadmap for devs

NightScale's stuff looks good and comes with uniforms in another mod

There's also chrisarmyknife's mod for another take on total reskins

Even includes D.a.r.e. which is a nice touch

[amber fossil]

@sour island Hey I saw your comment under the sandbox+ mod on steam and was wondering if you knew an easy way to fix the gameOptions issue I could use? I am not familiar with modding PZ so please forgive any lack of common understanding here lol.

[sour island]

Are you the author?

[amber fossil]

Of sandbox+? No. just a frustrated user off ti

it*

[sour island]

Ah so that makes it more of a puzzle.

What mods do you have that change the menu?

ModOptions?

[amber fossil]

yes modoptions i dont think i have any others that affect the options menu.

[sour island]

The only way to correct sandbox+'s behavior would be to not use it unfortunately. The solution I have with EasyConfigChucked is sort of precarious.

You could try installing EasyChuckedConfig -- last I checked it worked alongside both ModOptions and SandBox+

The issue is it modifies how menus display but it's not overwriting safely

[amber fossil]

Ah I see, I'll give EasyConfig a try. I appreciate the info.

[sour island]

Hey, Anybody play with Ellies tattoo mod? any idea where to get the tattoo ink?

[magic meteor]

Gotcha

[pearl prism]

debug works by Lua?

[coral lichen]

any mod that lets me light bodies on fire without gas? i find it stupid they cant burn just from their clothes

[pearl prism]

why stupid? In real life clothes are not enough for this

[coral lichen]

how tf do u know 🧐

[pearl prism]

I've spent a lot of time on not-so-nice video sites

[sour island]

I mean fire in game spreads way too much as is

Requiring an accelerant to burn bodies is super realistic and good for balance

[agile coral]

You find it in salon-type locations. So hair salons, beauty parlors, tattoo parlors, etc

Anywhere you can find makeup basically

[fading prawn]

Thanks!

[proud fern]

Finally.
I can see myself get eaten

[grizzled grove]

oh! we can potentially have zombies inside cars now, kinda, yeah?

it would be amusing to have a car slowly meandering down some street with zombies half hanging out the windows

[willow estuary]

Possibly, but I'd imagine that stuff like pathfinding etc would be massively borked?

...having said that you could have pregenerated corpse models visible on seats and the like?

[grizzled grove]

i was thinking live zeds

and bad pathfinding for a zombie car isn't really a concern, imo

[willow estuary]

Oh yeah, I know. Seen a fair amount of wishlisting for that feature lately?
Ah, by pathfinding I mean zombies getting out of cars and otherwise properly reacting to their environment/the player?

[sour island]

Wouldn't be that much of an issue I imagine.

If anything they should be bad at pathing

[grizzled grove]

oh, that makes sense. I guess that would be some heavy work to make

[willow estuary]

I mean, as a fan of zombies as scenery I should look into the idea? I'm just so fussy and conservative about anything that can nerf threats to players that my immediate reaction is "how will the zombie still be dangerous!"

[grizzled grove]

well... if they spawn as an event (somehow at an appropriate time and place), there's opportunity to splat a player with a random car

or as a parked car with a sleeper type, that could prompt an attack with a reduced bite chance

*when you open the car door

[swift shadow]

Eh, zombies are an environmental hazard at best, the real killer is other people/overconfidence.

Personally I'd love to see corpses have to get hauled out of a vehicle before trying to make a quick getaway.

And if on the rare occasion that body you tossed out then gets back up well I'm fine with that too

[sour island]

Does attacking a car with melee not already exsist?

[grizzled grove]

i believe you can smash windows with standard melee attacks

[sour island]

Yeah I don't see an issue with adding in combat to sitting zombies

Hit() is a hookabke process that can be overwritten completely

It's actually doable now

Wish I had more time and less job

[swift shadow]

pictures a character walking up to a car hoping to steal it just to get a jumpscare as the body in the drivers seat moves and starts to thump and squeak against the side window...

[sour island]

More animations in general would be nice

[thin hornet]

Hey guys, anyway to save modData on IsoObject that stay after Picking up and placing back down? Cause right now it doesnt save it to the moveable item

[swift shadow]

More hooks for you modders the better imop.

[sour island]

Pulling bodies, dragging, etc

[thin hornet]

i tryed saving data into :getModData().itemCondition but still doesnt stay so im not sure how moveable keep data such as when inserting a VHS into a tv and moving the tv around, the vhs is still into it

[sour island]

You're adding that into the TVs modData?

[thin hornet]

no no, im just trying to add an item into my computer and when moving it around and placing it back that the item and data is still into that computer

but picking up the computer remove all custom data

[sour island]

Ah I can guess why

Alot of things in PZ under go object hand offs

When you pick up furniture it gets deleted and replaced by an item object

[thin hornet]

yeah

but isnt there some data transfered into the item object

[sour island]

There may be

[thin hornet]

clearly modData isnt so i need a way

[sour island]

But the convention in PZ is you empty container before moving them

So perhaps follow that?

[thin hornet]

yeah unfortunatly if i dont find a way ill be limited to that

[sour island]

Otherwise you'd have to find events for picking up and placing objects to copy and have off modData

Which may be done via timed actions tbh

[thin hornet]

i know tv does transfer the vhs in it but its probably specific code for the tv that we cant use in lua

i wish there was some basic meta data that would be kept into isoobject

would open up for a lot of possibility in modding capabilities

[willow estuary]

There was a mod data table added for movables to make it persistent, but I haven't played with it and don't have a handle on it?

[thin hornet]

there is an itemCondition table automatically added to the object but i tried adding data to it and it didnt save it

[sour island]

I'm fairly certain modData is meant as the metaData

You're adding an array object to modData?

Or is item condition an actual Lua table?

Cause modData can't save objects

[swift shadow]

Does Zuper carts throw a ton of lua stack trace errors for anyone else?

[thin hornet]

Actually i try to add just a bool and string to test if it saved and it wont after moving the Object

[sour island]

To modData?

Sorry for asking again, itsj ust you mentioned the item condition thing

The devs recently added specific item objects for movables

That may have broken what ever Blair is referring to

You'd have to hand off the modData to the held object

To test this try adding the changes to the movable while it's on the ground with out moving it and checking if that's saving

[thin hornet]

Ill try playing around with this i decided to release a simple version of the mod for now.

[sour island]

Fair

PZ modding has a tendency to blow up in scope

[thin hornet]

yeah haha

some limitation but also probably exist a workaround

[sour island]

Also this would be a fairly easy thing to do java side ... soooo @iron salmon it appears movableObjects don't retain their modData when picked up and "converted" into an inventoryItem.

[thin hornet]

I used to code with Capsid from Storm Project but right now its not setup i formatted my pc so i work in notepad++ and just search for what i need

[sour island]

Oh damn

I left before capsid?

Is that similar to pzdoc?

[tribal dune]

I think doom actually came out in 1993 too

[thin hornet]

capsid uses pzdoc and luaanotation its pretty powerfull

[proud fern]

Can Project Zomboid run doom?

[sour island]

That sounds like pzmod

[thin hornet]

Im thinking to add computer video game that you can add into the computer to play the game

once i figure out more about adding "disk" into the computer etc

[proud fern]

I mean, chuck, Konijima.
How hard would it be to put Doom into PZ

[thin hornet]

Was also thinking about making a simple scripting language to automate stuff in your homes

[sour island]

Visually? Significant work

[thin hornet]

Could put your script onto disk and share copies to friend in multiplayer

[proud fern]

Damn

[thin hornet]

something like ComputerCraft from minecraft

[sour island]

Lua is used in other places - maybe someone already wrote Doom in Lua

[proud fern]

Hmm

[thin hornet]

this look freaking awesome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkRHnP_sCUM

Would be nice to have computer parts and upgrades and actual OS with installable software

like if you remove the harddrive and place into an other computer the stuff in the hdd still installed

[proud fern]

We just have a whole web

Watch some cute cat videos while suffering from a bite

[thin hornet]

maybe an internet central building that need to be powered and that would enable internet accross an area

[proud fern]

You are speaking "Save our station" levels of imagination

[thin hornet]

yeah

same principle but for an internet level

[proud fern]

Still, even if you restored the internet

What would you do with it

99% of Kentucky is dead

[thin hornet]

in Multiplayer you could do some stuff

[proud fern]

[thin hornet]

or search and learn skills without books

[sour island]

I think a more realistic comptuter use would be cameras and alarms?

[thin hornet]

watch porn

[proud fern]

Stuff that's in rust

[thin hornet]

@sour island yup good idea

[proud fern]

Put up some cameras, find thieves
Shoot them with a turret

[sour island]

Yes

[proud fern]

Then play doom

[thin hornet]

automation, so if a trip wire is activated you code what happen then, so maybe sound an alarm, or blow up a bomb

[sour island]

The game needs more booby traps

And not just constructions that sit in 1 tile

[proud fern]

Like a beartrap

[thin hornet]

could have automated door lock from 6am to 6pm for example

[sour island]

Like a spring loaded door full of spikes

[thin hornet]

or pressure plate system

[proud fern]

Or a shotgun trap strapped to the door

[sour island]

Yeah

Would be neat to use resources for traps

[thin hornet]

you install hardware on trap and then connect it to the computer, and can see what trap by ID is ready to collect

[proud fern]

Imagine PZ adds like those rope traps in cartoons and you're just dangling there for 3 days while you Starve

[thin hornet]

no knife to untie your self

I mean, if you were obese you automatically could snap the ropw

[thin hornet]

imagine zombie coming while your strapped xD

Setting up the mod.info file
Fields: [name, id, poster, description, require, pack, type, tiledef, versionMin, versionMax]

The name required field is to give the mod a display name in the mod selector in-game.

The id required field, this should be unique and tells the game which mod to use.

The poster optional field is to show an image in the mod selector. Can have multiple.

The description optional field provides a description in the mod selector. Can have multiple.
-- Can be formatted, for more info refer to the file ..\lua\client\ISUI\RichTextLayout.lua.

The require optional field makes it so the required mod/s will be needed to enable, and automatically enable with it. Only one field.
-- Entries should be the other mod's id field. Entries can be separated by a comma.

The pack optional field for when your mod adds a .pack file. It should contain the name of the file added by the mod. Can have multiple?
-- For more info, refer to https://theindiestone.com/forums/index.php?/topic/8790-custom-texture-packs-and-tile-definitions/

The type optional field for when the pack contains item icons or UI textures. Can have multiple?
-- As of writing, only type=ui
-- These packs should be before other packs.

The tiledef optional field for when your mod adds a .tiles file and should contain the name of the file. Can have multiple?
-- requires a unique number after a space, between 100 and around 8000. Unique to not conflict with other mods!

The versionMin and versionMax optional fields remove the ability to enable when the game version is outside it's range.
-- Both of these fields follow the same format: XX.YY Text
-- The Text can be formatted like the description field and is optional.

Example with all but the type field below:

name=My mod's display name
id=myUniqueCustomMod
description=This is an example mod, <LINE> with two lines of description!

require=otherModA,otherModB

poster=poster.png
poster=poster2.png

pack=myTexturePack
tiledef=myTileDefinitions 428

versionMin=41.50 - IWBUMS
versionMax=41.55 - IWBUMS

In case someone else may have a use for it.

Haha, yep. Still need to work on when to plug in updates for the dynamic vehicle appearance business 🤪

[thin hornet]

any idea how to reproduce this

using bodyDamage:setBoredomLevel(self.stats.boredom) doesn't seem to cause this automatically

[dry chasm]

From what I've read from someone it was setHaloNote or something IIRC.

[thin hornet]

thanks man im checking into it

saw it earlier

[dry chasm]

HaloTextHelper.addTextWithArrow(playerObject, string, boolean, color)
My assumption would be "true" for up, "false" for down on the third argument?
(example usage in media\lua\client\RadioCom\ISRadioInteractions.lua)

[thin hornet]

so yeah that was it thanks @dry chasm
HaloTextHelper.addTextWithArrow(self.character, getText("IGUI_HaloNote_Boredom"), false, HaloTextHelper.getColorGreen());

[sour island]

@thin hornet ISMoveableSpriteProps Have you look in here?

Looks like the modData is supposed to carry over

[thin hornet]

long time ago when making the Water dispenser but sprite props seems to be set automatically based on Tiles Props

Ill give an other try to modData with different object and see

[sour island]

modData itself isn't carried over but strictly specific aspects of it are

so you'd have to add onto some of the functions here using overwriting methods

[cinder hull]

Hello. Does anybody know how to add specific body part protection to clothes ? For example, if I want to add a neck protection to a jacket ? Thanks guys

[dry chasm]

#mod_development message
IIRC the blood location defines where something "protects"

[thin hornet]

action:update()
    if math.fmod(self.haloDelay, 500) == 0 then
        HaloTextHelper.addTextWithArrow(self.character, getText("IGUI_HaloNote_Boredom"), false, HaloTextHelper.getColorGreen())
    end
    self.haloDelay = self.haloDelay + 1
end

Alright so i made it so that the text over head (halo) appear every 500 frame and it gives the wanted effect 😄

What is the difference between this:
function tableName:functionName
and
function tableName.functionName

[dry chasm]

functions defined with : have access to the table via self and get it passed as the first argument, not necessary to set inside the brackets ()

[thin hornet]

is there a way to save and override those with a :

[dry chasm]

though if you'd want to call it afterwards with . (for whatever reason) you'll have to pass the (or another if applicable) object as the first argument

[thin hornet]

cause i get an error with this:
local originalFunction = tableName:functionName

[dry chasm]

local original_Function = tableName.functionName;
function tableName:functionName(a, b, c, d)
  -- do your stuff before original
  local result = original_function(self, a, b, c, d);
  -- do your stuff after original
  return result; -- return original return value
end

[thin hornet]

oh wow ok

thanks again mate

will test this out

works perfectly thanks

[thin hornet]

@sour island so got the moddata to transfer by overriding ISMoveableSpriteProps:pickUpMoveableInternal & ISMoveableSpriteProps:placeMoveableInternal 👍 Let the fun start

glad to see it

Im gonna make a table that transfers and add everything into that table

btw you don't have to copy the entire function

you could just add your bit to it

and run the original

its not the whole thing i picked only the part i needed cause i dont think i could do otherwise

[wraith dust]

hey I'm trying to get in modding and i don't know much but i want to make script that remove the door's breaking mechanic by replacing with a simple open door command and resetting the hp when it's 0, but i don't know which script file is for doors so i can edit it. can you help me a little?

the reason i want to this is because i don't like zombies destroying unobtainable tiles

[turbid canopy]

Hi everyone! Hope you are all well here, been lurking for a bit 🙂

@wraith dust No Idea on moddding for PZ - but you gave me an Idea... Would it be possible for Modders to implement half of what you're talking about but say a 'Partial' Door?

Eg: Depending on the Door Type - once it is sufficiently damaged - rather than simply get destroyed it is 'Breached' with a hole that Zombies can crawl through - like they do under Cars?

Players could then (Depending on the material of the Door and available to them) - Patch the doors up again after (Welding on Steel/Metal Doors or Boarding up wooden ones)

I notice that in PZ a lot of 'Building Materials' are rather poorly defined; For example a Bank should have thick Windows that a zombie or crowd isn't going to break through - Upstairs windows in Office Buildings are probably going to be stronger too

If you're up against a barred door/gate/fence you might still be vulnerable to attack from the other side, but they should be pretty impossible to break through

[warm shell]

I think if a zombie broke down a door it wouldn't make a hole

[turbid canopy]

A really weak window might even be breakable by sprinting through it (Sprinter Zombies!)

[warm shell]

It would probably take the entire thing with it

[turbid canopy]

@warm shell The thought in my head is they are breaking through the door (Eg: Internal Doors of Homes are often quite easy to put holes through)

Far easier than pushing it through its own frame

[warm shell]

That's why you get hinges from broken doors

They quite literally rip the entire thing off

But i see what you mena

[turbid canopy]

So the Zombie is pulling on the Door?

Because IMHO thats the only way I can imagine that would work

[warm shell]

No it's thumping it's body against it

[turbid canopy]

Oh I guess actually I see what you mean too - Depending which way the door opens - it wouldn't have to be going against the frame

[warm shell]

I do feel like zombies should have a chance to just break open the door though

[turbid canopy]

I wouldnt want to make the game needlessly complex (directions that doors open) - but I mean would it be possible to implement? Would it be a decent idea?
Just like knocking through a plaster wall should probably be a hole rather than the whole section (which you could eventually do) - you could then use a 'climb through' animation

[turbid canopy]

Agreed - the two together would be pretty cool IMHO, little bit more variety and a little less abritrary than all or nothing state

[warm shell]

Maybe one day the devs or a modder will do this

[turbid canopy]

Probably a lot of work for little gain - but I think sooner or later there should be another look at building material types

Hell imagine ram raiding a store front with a pickup truck

[warm shell]

Lmao

[sour island]

depends if there's events/hooks related to the player/cars bumping

round about alternative would be to tie into the update() procs respectively

most crazy ideas are doable - just takes a bit of elbow grease

don't let your dreams be dreams, etc

[rocky otter]

How do u craft supressor?

[calm portal]

Would it be possible to add a flare gun that when used. Catches the attention of the nearest active helicopter event around you?

[vestal umbra]

it would be very nice if someone could list all the Events that you could hook into.

[vestal umbra]

my angel.

But, how do I use events?

[sour island]

I'm glad you asked.

--Checks every hour if there is an event scheduled to engage
function eHeliEvent_Loop()
    local DAY = getGameTime():getNightsSurvived()
    local HOUR = getGameTime():getHour()
    for k,v in pairs(getGameTime():getModData()["EventsSchedule"]) do
        if (not v.triggered) and (v.startDay <= DAY) and (v.startTime == HOUR) then
            print("EHE: LAUNCH INFO:  HELI ID:"..k.." - "..v.preset)
            if eHelicopter_PRESETS[v.preset] then
                eHeliEvent_engage(k)
            end
        end
    end
end

Events.EveryHours.Add(eHeliEvent_Loop)

[vestal umbra]

Whoa, what a convenience!

[sour island]

Events have built-in parameters not listed here

you'd have to find where they're called to see what's in there

[vestal umbra]

Hmmm, thank you.

[sour island]

--- Event Hooks ---
Events.OnCreateLivingCharacter.Add(ConditionalSpeech.load_n_set_Moodles)--OnCreateLivingCharacter(playerObj) --Starts up ConditionalSpeech
Events.EveryHours.Add(ConditionalSpeech.check_Time)--EveryHours(?) --check every in-game hour for events
Events.OnWeaponSwing.Add(ConditionalSpeech.check_WeaponStatus) --OnWeaponSwing(playerObj,weapon)
Events.OnPlayerUpdate.Add(ConditionalSpeech.check_PlayerStatus) --OnPlayerUpdate(playerObj) --checks moodlestatus

note the comments

[undone elbow]

On Lua side:

for k in pairs(Events) do
  print(k)
end

[vestal umbra]

I found the event I want to hook onto, but I cannot find the right way to do it.

I think I need to add the parameters like Chuck said, but I don't know how to do this.

[undone elbow]

Which event?

[vestal umbra]

OnCreatePlayer

I am looking for an event that is called once when a character spawns in.

Like, first time.

[undone elbow]

Events.OnCreatePlayer.Add(fn)

[vestal umbra]

Yeah, it bugs on that.

It says it cannot do that.

[dry chasm]

IIRC that event fires when loading a save game as well

[vestal umbra]

Events.OnCreatePlayer.Add(addClosedSheetsToPlayerSpawnHouse(this.player))

[dry chasm]

do not call your function in it, just pass it in (it gets it's arguments from when it's called)

[undone elbow]

e.g.

Events.OnCreatePlayer.Add(function(a,b,c,d)
  print('a=',a,' b=',b,' c=',c,' d=',d)
end)

[dry chasm]

so Events.OnCreatePlayer.Add(addClosedSheetsToPlayerSpawnHouse)

[vestal umbra]

Let me try

[undone elbow]

Actually there should be only one parameter as I remember:

Events.OnCreatePlayer.Add(function(player)
  print(player)
end)

[sour island]

---@param playerObject IsoPlayer | IsoGameCharacter
function ConditionalSpeech.setSpeakColor(playerObject)
    local MpTextColor = getCore():getMpTextColor()
    playerObject:setSpeakColourInfo(MpTextColor)
    print("CND-SPEECH: Setting Speak Color on: "..playerObject:getFullName())
end
Events.OnCreateLivingCharacter.Add(ConditionalSpeech.setSpeakColor)

Easier to read imo

on the java side of things:

LuaEventManager.triggerEvent("OnCreateLivingCharacter", this, this.descriptor);

this = playerObject

[undone elbow]

Correct blank event function for OnCreatePlayer:

Events.OnCreatePlayer.Add(function(player_id)
  local player = getSpecificPlayer(player_id)
  print(player)
end)

[pearl prism]

this sould be in the wiki

[sour island]

Eh

The wiki needs more automation for stuff like this

(unless it is already)

[pearl prism]

My source has always been the wiki. And to be honest for this sort of "list" thing it's way better than anything else. I've been here on Discord for a month and I always see the same questions and answers, simple things

I think an updated wiki would save a lot of effort

[sour island]

@vestal umbra ```lua

FINALLY

[worldly olive]

Hi hi!!
Does somebody knows how to apply a fracture?

I'm doing this but it is failing, I'm pretty sure it is related to lua syntax but I can't figure out what's wrong 🤦🏻‍♀️

player:getBodyDamage():getBodyPart(BodyPartType:FromIndex(ZombRand(BodyPartType:ToIndex("UpperLeg_L"), BodyPartType:ToIndex("Foot_R")))):setFractureTime(ZombRand(30, 50));

[sour island]

Try checking out CDDA

I think they break the player's foot?

[worldly olive]

True!! where it was located? do you know?

[sour island]

playerObj:getBodyDamage():getBodyPart(BodyPartType.Groin):generateDeepShardWound();

nvm

[worldly olive]

Hmmmm, so probably my error is in the FromIdex and ToIndex

[sour island]

I think you're adding too many layers

[dry chasm]

FromIndex and ToIndex shouldn't be called with : but .

[worldly olive]

Why you do this to me Lua, why
Java is always . 😂

[worldly olive]

Yeah I know, was trying to make the code shorter

[vestal umbra]

Short code =/= good code

[sour island]

playerObj:getBodyDamage():getBodyPart(BodyPartType.Foot_R):

setFractureTime()

iirc wounds work based on how long it will take for them to recover

so all you need is:

playerObj:getBodyDamage():getBodyPart(BodyPartType.Foot_R):setFractureTime(n)

if you want it to be between random parts you could have a list of those part types

and grab a random one

[worldly olive]

Yeah I wanted to make it random

Will try with that

[drifting ore]

Just give me like sleep and a day and I will make like 20 funny title games

[thin hornet]

cool man, Ill grab probably around 30 titles from everyone suggestion, anyway it will be possible to make addon mods to add more games

[tribal dune]

You want real games or games with alt names based on real ones or just completely made up ones?

[proud fern]

Depends

Make any you like

Real or not

[thin hornet]

Personally I dont mind, realistic is cool too

[proud fern]

As long as it's not like GTA V

@thin hornet Seems like a stupid question, but would be great if you could hear game audio when playing these games, maybe a 10 sec loop

[thin hornet]

I was thinking about that but audio files will make the mod size pretty big.
I might get some different sound loop for game genre

so audio would be by genre instead of by game title

[errant meteor]

great idea

[craggy furnace]

about to show off raiders

this is devious as hell

[errant meteor]

devious lick :]

[wet dune]

helicopters right?

...

[kind surge]

It looks like the function getPartById is robust enough to accept any string, and it looks like the part.id value comes from the script block.id value. So if your script block is named the same as the string you're passing to getPartById, it should return that part.

[craggy furnace]

yes

a raider group with a helicopter decides to turn you into bait

A raider group eh?

Wish we could shoot back at them

[pearl prism]

Interesting, will you have a 3d model?

[craggy furnace]

you arent very aware of this, are you?

no lol

weve been working on this for months

not this specifically but we have visible helicopters in our github

[rancid barn]

Nice

[errant meteor]

they do a little trolling

[pearl prism]

If you use creativity you can do this in a number of ways.

[craggy furnace]

yes

already aware and doing it

[errant meteor]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGU1P6lBW6Q they should be blasting this

[craggy furnace]

i am waiting on TIS to fix an issue on their side

[pearl prism]

if the "shadow is a zed" you could somehow make some piece of clothing being a helicopter, things like that...

[craggy furnace]

nah

[errant meteor]

nice

[pearl prism]

If you follow this way, you could even somehow make the player be able to drop the helicopter (it would only be a zed for the game)

It would be really cool to shoot the heli until it falls ...

[craggy furnace]

again, nope

overly complicated

we are attaching it to a vector

then throwing it down a line

the rotors being animated

basically with attachments

[errant meteor]

Will they fly above those 8 story buildings in LV?

[craggy furnace]

still very hypothetical

until we can actually get these working well enough after they do their fix and we can fly them over we dont know

id honestly rather we ditch these and go with tracking markers

@pearl prism the idea does have merit

[pearl prism]

If you polish it well, I bet something good comes out

[rancid barn]

What is that?

[pearl prism]

I use google translator, I don't understand what you said here about animating the rotors

[pearl prism]

a dream

[craggy furnace]

ah, mostly we are just using attachments to put the helicopter together

[steady onyx]

Is it possible to add new injury types to PZ? Had a look through scripts/lua but couldn't find a damn thing.

anyone have an idea to set the tooltip of the hovered item in an inventory pane?

[hot patrol]

I need some help. So I'm trying to make the pillow I just posted a melee weapon and it looks like I did it but now the model is massive

does scaling work differently for weapons?

[wet dune]

Add the forums pls I am begging you

[dry chasm]

Should be similar, if not even the same as with the object's context no? (Is what I'd assume atleast)

[thin hornet]

Will probably do something similar one day

[dry chasm]

Oh wait

i misunderstood

[thin hornet]

Tooltip are on Hover so they do not have anything to do with context menu

i was thinking something like item:tooltip but doesnt seem to exist in any game codes

[dry chasm]

item:setTooltip(string) IIRC.
Though if your items are all seperately defined in a script table, I'm sure you could just add the translation there

but if im not mistaken you randomize it, or something else? So I would suggest doing that call when "setting" what kind of CD it's supposed to be.

[thin hornet]

thanks ill try that

im guessting setTooltip require a ISToolTip:new() object

[dry chasm]

no no

just a string

[thin hornet]

oh it just set the description text

i see

ill check this out asap

[dry chasm]

the actual tooltip object or similar should be set from the inventoryPane i would guess

though if you define your CD's all seperately in a script .txt file, then adding Tooltip = Tooltip_YourGame,
or something to it would be sufficient, as well as adding a translation for it to
media\lua\shared\Translate\XX\Tooltip_XX.txt (replace XX with language codes like EN, DE, AR, CA, FR...)

[craggy furnace]

new events 🚁

[rancid barn]

Oooo

[thin hornet]

Yeah so Game CD are a single item and i assign them a game metaData.
This way where ever we want to add new game it will just randomly set newly found game disc to a random game.

So right now inserting and ejecting is completed pretty much.
Game disc generator is also working fine for Disk_Game found on ground or into containers.
Im assuming CD never actually spawn into Bags so i didnt bother making it generate there and even if it did it would be assign a game as soon as it is picked up.
Im going to make it so that you must install the Game onto the computer and also uninstall if wanted.

[errant meteor]

Where is the air liner option 🙂

[thin hornet]

So the thing is that the toolTip is unset at game restart and also cannot add colors.

[dry chasm]

how did you add colors and all beforehand? 🤔

[thin hornet]

using setTooltip() on an inventory item is very temporary and for color its seem to be different from a option.tooltip

[trim igloo]

a zombie apocalypse simulation game playing life simulation in game

[thin hornet]

Yup

for an option.tooltip.description i use:
description = "<RGB:0,1,1>Publisher: <RGB:1,1,1>" .. game.publisher
for an inventory item.setTooltip() i use:
description = "Publisher: " .. game.publisher

cause RGB:0,1,1 doesnt parse in an item tooltip

i cant remember when ive seen this in code but i recall there was a string builder or something

[undone elbow]

@thin hornet mod example:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1922750845

[undone elbow]

@thin hornet Btw this is an example how to NOT overwrite the whole functions. So the mod will be compatible with future updates of the PZ and with other mods. Those mods may inject into the same functions and sill be compatible with each other.

[thin hornet]

Yeah thanks, that specific popup is hard to work with.

since it uses ObjectTooltip.new(); which we dont have anything in Lua about this

[undone elbow]

I mean other mods too, e.g. Coco Liquid Overhaul, where you are replacing some functions entirely.

[thin hornet]

yeah ill have to fix coco soon.

but computer i didnt rewrite any

Clo has gotten big in code size so its gonna be a lot of work

[thin hornet]

Alright so got it to also resize with the tooltip font size setting

Fixed the weight of stack field

[cinder hull]

I want the world model to look like this

[thin hornet]

Then we can make custom cover item where you can drop a CD into it
Some sort of bag item which can only hold a 0.1 weight

Inventory Item Tooltip Custom Fields + Auto Resize + Font size settings friendly
Download -> https://pastebin.com/4jLF4Lm5

[undone elbow]

Your code is working not only for Disc_Game.
I mean you could do this:

if not (self.item and self.item:getType() == "Disc_Game") then
    return old_render(self)
end

So your calculations will be skipped for any other item.

It's a kind of optimization.

@thin hornet

[thin hornet]

i agree if i place this at the top it would skip bunch of useless replacement

[dry chasm]

well, not sure if it's actually the one you search, or if this one's an actual box or something, but it seems to fit nicely 👀

[thin hornet]

I will confirm

[dry chasm]

<@&671452400221159444> and thanks

[thin hornet]

postbox is not the mailbox, im guessing it is the box at the post building

cause mail box do generate how to use a generator and its not in this list

and actually im at the postal building in westpoint and it doesnt seem to be there either

but i suppose it is this box

[dry chasm]

took a quick look, unsure on how distribution truely works, though:

[thin hornet]

mhmm

[undone elbow]

Outside = "all"

So yes it should be postbox

[hot patrol]

I'm wondering how I can go about getting a picture of my model to use as an icon, can anyone help?

[thin hornet]

@hot patrol you can use blender and cameras to take render image. There is ways of saving it with an transparent background.

[hot patrol]

Ok. I'll look into that. Thank you.

[harsh frigate]

installed britas weapon mod

there were 3 guns in my starter house shed

i have 7 boxes of 556 ammo

[old harbor]

Brita's mods are unbalanced

[harsh frigate]

oh god i set off a house alarm first thing

[old harbor]

Sometimes it spawns a lot, sometimes it doesn't spawn anything

[harsh frigate]

and theres a zombie with a spiffo pack

what do i do i want it

[zealous glade]

Anyone knows how to solve this problem? I'm clueless now, just tried to update the mod, it didn't happen before today

[swift shadow]

The current version have built in support for customizing exactly what you want to spawn where and in what amounts.

[old harbor]

And I have no idea how to do this, nor did I know about it.

The armor mod doesn't even work, nothing is spawned in my game

[swift shadow]

It uses the mod options system if you've used that for other mods, even has a setting to remove post 93 weapons (or if you still want them adjust how rare they are).

I think its busted due to the last updates loot table changes, there is a mod that fixes that apparently. Let me fetch a link.

[old harbor]

Ok
