brave fable

bird appears if no item is in nest, item is traded overnight, question mark appears until item is claimed
re-entering location respawns bird unless any item is in nest

woeful lintel
#

well, she's canonically a hawk, not a crow despite the fan name

velvet narwhal
#

💯 i did not even realize it wasn't the normal crow sprite, if you've animated it yourself, would there be a way to make it erratically flap for a few seconds up until the player finally comes up to it and it'll fly away?

#

that would be my tell that i need to click the stump cause that ain't normal bird behavior

brave fable
#

actually it's the LooseSprites/Birds crow rather than the Monsters/Crow haha

Is there a way to animate dialogue text?

Excuse the ping, but as a Lacey enjoyer, I absolutely must ask: Would you ever consider adding a key for CP mods to add their own hat dialogue to her?

Yoll the eurasian eagle owl my beloved

haughty charm
brave fable
#

yeah animated text does actually need a slightly ridiculous transpiler and a controller and a couple of trigger action methods

#

and the rest of the owl

#

it's not the worst, but it's not great

lucid iron
#

I like bin chickens (ibis) but that is probably because I don't live in Australia

brave fable
#

you'd like ibises more if you heard them. they honk

i didn't think they'd honk

oh you know what, the loon can probably unseat one of the unspecified owls on my list

when i lived in oklahoma my aunt hat a pet vulture so obviously i'm biased

were you adding more birds to ornithologist or something

oh i'm sure it was just another sneaky chance to post off-topic SDVdemetriums

haughty charm

#

SDVpuffersweats why do i get ideas for more npcs when i havent even finished the first

velvet narwhal
#

we've done it folks, we got a mod to go off-topic

haughty charm
#

oh wow

hard fern
#

maybe i'll dig up my old scrapped npc 🤔

brave fable
#

it's impressive but they also don't look much like chihuahuas

velvet narwhal
#

oh they're quite small in game

#

ichor begs for more anthro npcs, i bring out my bird obsession

tiny zealot
#

i always love to see non-humans

hard fern
#

🤔 if i plan to go all in with making npcs maybe i should just make a base for them to all hang out

#

aka: i stick them all in the void

#

oh, and my question from... yesterday that i fell asleep before asking.... is it possible to put quotation marks inside of a dialogue line?

uncut viper
#

yes, just either escape them or use single quotes for your outer quotes instead

brave fable
#

sure, just use \" wherever you'd use " (this is escaping them)

hard fern
#

a

vernal crest
hard fern
#

i forgot about those

uncut viper
#

"This is how \"you\" can write quotes in dialogue."
'This is "another" valid way to do it.'

vernal crest
#

If you do the second way you'd have to escape your apostrophes I imagine.

uncut viper
#

correct

hard fern
#

SDVpufferpensive how do i do a quick question again, i forgot...

velvet narwhal
#

in what?

hard fern
#

in dialogue

velvet narwhal
#

@ aba

#

iirc it's a mix of $q and $r

vernal crest
#

No a quick question in dialogue is $y

#

Example: Penny: "$y 'Breakfast?_Yes please._Here you go._No, I'm good_More for me then!'"

velvet narwhal
#

and this is why i don't do dialogue commands SMCKekLmaoDog

vernal crest
#

It repeats every time the dialogue is played, can't be used for $p commands, and I don't know if you can do $action inside them to set a mail flag.

#

But I do know from Nova last night that you can put $v inside $y

uncut viper
#

you could probably just put the action first right

vernal crest
#

No I mean to set a mail flag based on which answer was chosen Button

uncut viper
#

or does $y have to be the very first thing in the dialogue line

#

ahh

hard fern
#

do the regular questions still need numerical IDs? i know events got changed to allow non-numbers but idk about questions

vernal crest
#

Sorry

#

No, $q questions do not need numerical IDs

#

See example

image.png
#

Sorry it's a screenshot

hard fern
#

oh, thanks

#

🤔 npc modding is so much easier now i feel

velvet narwhal
#

i would use, but i have a feeling i'll get lost in my own syntaxing and forget what i've done

vernal crest
#

I don't really use $y because I did so much delving into $q for my nested questions tutorial that I'm comfy with it

#

But I bet there's lots of space for creative use of $y that I would enjoy exploring if I didn't feel so blah right now

hard fern
#

...am i allowed to put a question in a conversation topic SDVpuffersweats the player is likely never gonna see this line again

velvet narwhal
#

i mean sure why not

#

i stuck a whole event in a random chance dialogue that's hidden behind several #$e#

vernal crest
#

You're allowed to do anything you can make the game do lol

#

That's part of the fun of modding

hard fern
#

🤔 the "question_old" thing is never gonna be seen but

brave fable
#

'arbitrary game bs' is usually a good reason why not

vernal crest
#

If the CT ensures the question will never be seen again anyway you might find it easier to just go with $y

hard fern
#

i was debating... bc i want relationship changes

vernal crest
#

Ah then yup stick with $q

#

Again you might be able to shoehorn relationship changes into $y but it's built-in to $q

#

I am going to test action inside of y

hard fern
#

(im writing this one, completely arbitrary line of dialogue for me and me only SDVkrobusgiggle )

velvet narwhal
#

make mods for you and you alone, and you'll always feel fulfilled

vernal crest
#

My mods are just for me! (And anyone who gets invested and I want to put easter eggs in for haha)

brave fable
#

huuh what's the third row of bushes in tilesheets/bushes

#

that could pass for an azalea

uncut viper
#

i love when my IDE just randomly decides to say that things don't exist anymore and fill my files with errors without rhyme or reason until i restart it. like yes thank you maybe you're right, maybe Game1.player isnt actually a thing anymore as of 30 seconds ago

vernal crest

teal bridge
#

That's never happened to me. You've got some bad juju.

brittle pasture
#

just some rando decorative bushes, no other in game uses

brave fable
#

from where though? i'm sure i've never seen them (although they're in sdv1.4 hmb)

teal bridge
#

Oh but this is Rider isn't it?

uncut viper
#

it is Rider yes

woeful lintel
vernal crest
#

I have seen them in game but I play so heavily modded that I don't know if my seeing them is vanilla or mod-added

teal bridge
#

Yeah, Jetbrains software does that stuff. I had those issues with IntelliJ constantly.

hard fern
#

the friendship increase/decrease values, how much equates to 1 heart? 250?

teal bridge
#

Not that VS doesn't have its own issues. Just not "how did you miss that in testing, honestly" type issues.

brave fable
#

oh these bushes are all over town hahah. guess i'm just blind to them and never saw them in tiled since they're bush instances

brittle pasture
brave fable
#

weirdly they put up pink flowers in summer rather than spring

#

maybe they're summer flowering bushes?

They are medium bushes

those aren't flowers, those are actually juicy wild melons

brittle pasture
#

unfortunately we can't eat them because of Pelican Town bylaws

haughty charm
#

Is there a way to prevent farm animals from producing increased quality outputs? If I have a farm animal that "drops" ore, for example. I don't want them to drop ores in anything but the base quality.

teal bridge
#

Now I can't stop thinking of the "I SH** GOLD BRICKS" Robot Chicken sketch.

vernal crest
#

Ooh I am invested in learning this. I don't like getting iridium quality geodes from my coop animals.

brittle pasture
#

no, that's super hardcoded

uncut viper
#

theres nothing worse than asking an animal related question and then seeing selph say "you cant"

haughty charm
#

Well, I'm noticing this with Immersive Manure, too. I got the next level poo and I can't process it because I have a bunch in mixed qualities.

brittle pasture
#

FWIW high quality poo do make better fertilizer

haughty charm
#

Well, there's no real difference in Hyper Speed-Gro or Iridium Quality Hyper Speed-Gro

vernal crest
#

Nooo Selph unhardcode it SDVpufferpleading

brittle pasture
#

I'm actually looking at the code right now to see whether this is possible without throwing a couple more transpilers on top

vernal crest
#

I am kidding I am not that bothered by it (but maybe Logo is?)

haughty charm
#

By "next level poo" I mean the gold poo, too

#

I have some farm animals(?) that drop pretty high value stuff, and it's awesome enough that they can drop a Prismatic Shard, but it doesn't need to be an Iridium Quality one. SBVLmaoDog

hard fern
#

🤔 thats some next level poo

vernal crest
#

I wonder where linkoid is, they haven't been around for a while

velvet narwhal
#

yeah i saw yaml mentioned and didn't pop up, must be work?

haughty charm
#

let me Quality Smash the gold poo, please

vernal crest
#

That is a new mod to me

hard fern
#

this convo out of context is hilarious

brittle pasture
haughty charm
#

Thanks for looking into it at least, Selph! SDVpufferheart

vernal crest
#

Other mods just have to submit to yours, Selph. You are the animal monarch.

teal bridge
#

I prefer "Manure Monarch", it just rolls off the tongue.

#

anyway we should probably stop now for the sake of anyone in a dinner timezone

hard fern
#

velvet narwhal
#

i think only hawaii is left in the dinner timezone

haughty charm
#

Well AUS is heading towards it, yeah?

vernal crest
#

NZ is in dinner time!

haughty charm
#

Anyway

#

Yep

velvet narwhal
#

ah hawaii's cousin

uncut viper
#

if a function generates an Item, then sends that Item to a different function as a parameter, and that second function edits that Item, will those edits persist back in the original function once the second one returns. i can never remember reference vs value passing

vernal crest
#

But Lemurkat is the only NZ-based person who comes around here that I know of

brittle pasture
#

edit, yes. not if it's reassigned to a new instance unless ref is used.

uncut viper
#

hmm. would you be able to just patch FarmAnimal.HandleStats then with a prefix or postfix to check the quality of the produce since that gets called with the produced item but before its placed on the ground, instead of a transpiler

brittle pasture
#

hmm that's kinda genius actually, do the evil deeds in another unrelated function that takes the object

uncut viper
#

trojan horse method

brittle pasture
#

though unfortunately handleStats is only called for dropped items, not milked/sheared ones
so you'd still get iridium quality ore from a hypothetical ore cow mod

haughty charm
#

They're not milked or sheared, they just drop

uncut viper
#

im surprised it doesnt do it for milked/sheared drops SDVpufferthinkblob

haughty charm
#

Oh

#

I see what you're saying, lmao

#

I'm half asleep

uncut viper
#

wait, are you sure

#

oh... the item gets added to the inventory before the stats check with the pail/shears...

brittle pasture
#

yeah there's literally no other function to hijack in the pail/shears

#

and also dig up

uncut viper
#

the pail/shears call HandleStatsOnProduceCollected tho which calls HandleStats

#

but you can also just set FarmAnimal.produceQuality in a DoFunction prefix on MilkPail and Shears

#

no clue about digging up stuff though

brittle pasture
#

oh that's new, gotta stop using outdated decompiles urgh

uncut viper
#

oh yeah i have no idea when this was added i just moved to the beta like 2 hours ago so i redid all my decomps and stuff

brittle pasture
#

(only a week old in my case. 1.6.9 moves fast)

uncut viper
#

is FarmAnimal.dayUpdate not where the dug up produce gets made too?

#

oh i guess that makes no sense

#

bc its not a daily thing

#

right

brittle pasture
#

produce quality does get set there though so I can change it depending on current produce ID

#

anyway this does seem much less a pain now, thanks

uncut viper
#

anything to give me a distraction from working on my 1.6.9 mod updates lmao

velvet narwhal
#

i was gonna ask, what else do you have left of the museum framework

uncut viper
#

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

i forgor

#

im working on my books mod right now, converting all the i18n to use the new subfolders feature

#

but its a bit of a pain bc i loaded all my i18n into assets so i could use my CP translations in the C# component instead

#

so i gotta rework that

velvet narwhal
#

ah right i18n can be tokenized or something, right?

uncut viper
#

iunno what you mean by tokenized but you can have like a folder named "default" now with different .jsons inside it

velvet narwhal
#

oh, i meant the c# thing uhhhhh

uncut viper
#

the C# thing is just me loading those assets and stuffing them into a dictionary im not doin anything with tokens

#

like i am loading i18n/default/books.json into like, {{ModId}}/Translations/Books to access those strings in my C# by loading em

oh nooooo

i just don't want to be orange

#

i'm with selph, give us another excuse to not be cheetos

haughty charm

But jams/events/contests in general are a lot of work behind the scenes.

You can opt to remove your mod author role? Then no more cheeto dust.

doesnt need to be a lot of work if you just never set an end date for one SDVpuffersmart

making my npc hate pretty much all of the ginger island recipes is pretty funny, by virtue of hating coconuts lol

#

...i am still writing marriage dialogue

#

SDVpufferflat its done enough

clever sinew
#

It’s 3 am and i am deliriously looking at recipes

#

The question is…do I actually think I can sprite any of these

hard fern
#

🤔 why is marriage dialogue so fun to write compared to regular dialogue... is it because i get to write them in full?

velvet narwhal
#

wdym write them in full

hard fern
#

like with all of their personality(?)

clever sinew
#

Like not having to hide stuff for the sake of heart events?

hard fern
#

instead of like, as only acquaintances or "friends"

#

yeah

velvet narwhal
#

i think you're the first to think marriage gives an npc personality SMCKekLmaoDog we're all of the mindset that marriage removes all personality

hard fern
#

😔

vernal crest
#

It's not a bad thing!

clever sinew
#

Listen i will never be mad at more spouse dialogue

velvet narwhal
#

no more ginger island visits, forced to follow a different schedule, patio only available on saturdays with heavy restrictions SMCKekLmaoDog

vernal crest
#

NPCs should be able to have personality after marriage

velvet narwhal
#

yeah it's good that you're adding personality into it

#

this funny function called marriageDuties is just an inside joke that it becomes a shackle

hard fern
#

my npc normally doesn't talk much, but in the marriage dialogue im using so many #$b# lol

vernal crest
#

Imagine a C# mod that just completely removed all the restrictions of marriage. It would be so hard to do, would have no compat with anything, and would break after every update...

clever sinew
#

…see this makes me think of NPC adventures and mods like that. Going on an adventure with your spouse would be awesome

velvet narwhal
#

i don't know what you mean by restrictions of marriage but that's just up to the npc maker's discretion about whether or not they add more lines after marriage through cp or events

#

there is the "spouses can visit GI" already

uncut viper
#

doesnt spacecore also have a thing to make npcs ignore their marriage schedule

velvet narwhal
#

did casey fix 0 schedules yet

uncut viper

i thought those were a different thing

velvet narwhal

0's break it iirc

something to put on the list of "atra things to bring up to 1.6"?

SDVpuffersweats i wrote a line of dialogue too long, I need to put it in an event.

vernal crest
#

How is it too long?

hard fern
#

i got carried away

#

it's a paragraph now

vernal crest
#

Oh sorry I mean like is it breaking the game's dialogue or something?

#

Or do you just feel like it's too long for dialogue?

velvet narwhal
#

are there like 6 #$b#/#$e#s in there

hard fern
#

way too long for dialogue

velvet narwhal
#

cause, i have one of those, only one

technically it won't break the game's dialogue but idk who wants to stand there clicking for like a minute or longer just to see all of the dialogue

how do you guys find inspiration for mods to make?

#

i am generally interested in yall's way of thinking

obtuse flare
#

i have a mod suggestion lol

#

if anyone is interested

#

i'd give a lot to reduce or remove moss spawns

velvet narwhal
#

if you understand c#, you find one inconvenient thing and you make a mod out of it
if you're just bored of the game, you think of one thing you wanna see in the game and you make a mod out of it
that's generally how i go about making my mods

also, another question, not related at all to spriting, is there a way to force mossy rain using commands?

vernal crest
#

Polter has said she's not keen on people using the portrait maker for making an NPC just FYI. It's not disallowed, she just doesn't like it much.

velvet narwhal
#

i can't remember if cjb can force green rain SDVpufferthink

vernal crest
#

As for the green rain thing...not that I know of but that doesn't mean there isn't

#

Might be worth having a look through the decompile

velvet narwhal
vague acorn
#

is there a way to even force green rain in the base game?

vernal crest
#

Like with a totem or something?

#

I don't think so

#

But you can just use a save predictor with a new save to find what date the green rain will be

vague acorn
#

it would be fun to make a totem for it XD

#

There is a green rain debug command, not sure it's syntax

#

Maybe just debug greenrain

vernal crest
# vague acorn how do you guys find inspiration for mods to make?

To answer this question: before I was in this discord my ideas basically just came from me playing and wanting stuff (like a) my aborted attempt at making every house in the valley have a bathroom was because I have realism-autism and wanted bathrooms but I gave up because it was a lot of spriting and I was too proud to use the HxW tilesheets lol and b) Hiria coming from me really loving the very in-depth NPCs and wanting more).

Now that I am in the discord I get a lot of ideas from discussing stuff with other people.

rancid temple
#

I started by updating mods I wanted and then making a few of the ideas I had, am now doing the "making mods others want and that I find interesting" path

#

While also waiting for my brain to think of new stuff I want lol

vague acorn
#

yeah what i do rn is work on stuff my friends and i come up with, while also looking for inspiration from other games/people

vernal crest
#

I have made one very small mod because somebody else wanted it but didn't know how to achieve it and I thought I could see a way to so I gave it a go.

#

And that was fun.

rancid temple
#

As a firmly-not-artistic type, I do have a fairly limited pool of ideas I can actually chase

vague acorn
rancid temple
#

A lot of frameworks are already made lol

vague acorn
vernal crest
#

There is a gigantic ideas list on github from the people who have the ideas but not the skill/desire to implement them.

#

!modideas

ocean sailBOT
#

If you have a mod idea that you aren't planning to make yourself, you can put it in the mod ideas github: https://github.com/StardewModders/mod-ideas

However, this does not mean anyone is guaranteed to work on your idea—modders who are looking for ideas sometimes go through and work on what they find interesting off this list. If you want to pay someone to make your mod idea, there are a few people who do commissions (mostly art, sometimes code); you can ask around, search usernames for the word comms, or see !commissions.

To use this command, type !modideas.

Eugh, but then I would have to be reliable

I can't speak about events because I've done nothing but the most basic in them (except TAS) but I find dialogue fun.

It's very easy to do really basic dialogue stuff without breaking anything so all the convoluted stuff is very much opt-in.

The great thing about the modding wiki is you could just dump the whole thing onto a page and just call it examples, maybe add a little info and call it good

I have a question: So OnTheRisk recently updated their animated portrait mods and included in one of the versions there's an animated Jas jump rope portrait. But currently they haven't figured out a way to add it in game. I was wondering if it would be possible to setup a content patcher mod that would only replace Jas' portrait during her time skipping rope to add in an animated portrait at all? Like even a vanilla style animated jump rope, or would it not be possible?

# iron stream I have a question: So OnTheRisk recently updated their animated portrait mods an...

Hmm backreading in this channel it looks like SpaceCore can do animated portraits.

As for getting them to happen at a specific point in her schedule - you could maybe do a CP patch to replace the portrait based off some condition that CP tokens could check but you'd have to use an OnTimeChange updaterate.

Alternatively if you got BETAS you could use the GSQ Spiderbuttons.BETAS_NPC_NEAR_AREA <Location> <X> <Y> <Radius> [NPC]+ inside her Appearance data to check if she has arrived at her schedule point and then use her skipping portrait.

Or I guess you could just give her a schedule string and set the skipping portrait in that.

I suspect there may be even more options than the three I have mentioned.

hallow prism
#

she has a schedule string i believe?

#

the "1, 2, 3, 4, oops, let's start again"

vernal crest
#

Upon re-reading Sticky's question I now think that the animation part is already sorted so if that's the case ignore what I said about SpaceCore lol

#

If she already has a schedule string then just editing that to add portrait command for the animated skipping portait seems easiest, yep.

woeful lintel
#

oh, that's smart, just adding the animated portrait in a new slot of the portrait sheet and changing the dialogue... I would have never thought of that

I don't know if it will work because I have no idea how the animated portraits work lol

you would likely need C#, unless you want that effect to happen to a limited numbers of NPC in which case there are workarounds by using gift answer dialogue and triggers/events

vernal crest

#

No I haven't unpacked my game files? How would I go about doing that? SDVpufferthinkblob

vernal crest
#

Looks like she doesn't have portrait commands in her jump rope schedule strings, so you might be able to use TextOperations to just append the portrait command to the end of it rather than rewriting out the entire string - but I am not familiar enough with TextOperations to know if that's how it works lol

The one with a portrait command in it is not for jumping rope (unless it's changed for 1.6.9)

they all have almost the same text anyway so i wasnt sure but if it isnt then thats great bc removing just the portrait command woulda been weird

(im going to sleep now so good luck!)

iron stream
vernal crest

Feel free to come ask questions about them if anything about them puzzles you

iron stream

I was able to make sense of it, since there are three different schedule strings for Jas practicing skipping rope would it be structured like this (using Button's code as a base obv I don't take credit):

//Spring
{
  "Action": "EditData",
  "Target": "Strings/schedules/Jas",
  "TextOperations": [
    {
      "Operation": "Append",
      "Target": ["Entries", "spring.000"],
      "Value": "$0" // <--- portrait number - is Jas' neutral expression as no specific portrait is mentioned
      "Delimiter": ""
    }
  ]
},
//Summer
{
  "Action": "EditData",
  "Target": "Strings/schedules/Jas",
  "TextOperations": [
    {
      "Operation": "Append",
      "Target": ["Entries", "summer.000"],
      "Value": "$1" // <--- portrait number she's happy here so it's her second smiling portrait
      "Delimiter": ""
    }
  ]
},
//Winter
{
  "Action": "EditData",
  "Target": "Strings/schedules/Jas",
  "TextOperations": [
    {
      "Operation": "Append",
      "Target": ["Entries", "winter_15.000"],
      "Value": "$0" // <--- portrait number - is Jas' neutral expression as no specific portrait is mentioned
      "Delimiter": ""
    }
  ]
} 
``` ?
I am curious to know how `"Delimiter": ""` comes into play, is that where I would add the command to replace the referenced portrait ($99) when skipping rope?
image.png
#

Also just learnt you can set is as a json through discord?? The more you know

vernal crest
#

Bother I was wrong about the one with the portrait command not being for jumprope, sorry Button

#

You will need to do more with the summer.000 string because you'll have to remove the $h before adding the correct one

iron stream
#

I'm guessing that $99 is her neutral portrait so I'd need to replace that one

vernal crest
#

No, $99 doesn't exist

brave fable
#

that's a pretty expensive portrait SDVpufferchicksweatsip

vernal crest
#

You'd have to have Aviroen levels of portrait madness to have that high a portrait index

iron stream
#

hahahaha ohhhhhh so 99 as in the 99th row portrait

vernal crest
#

But I will explain that in a second - delimiter - that's what you are telling TextOperations to add between the existing text and your addition. In this case you don't want anything to be added so the delimiter is just ""

iron stream
#

I see, I will have a read through of the github to see if it answers any of my questions SDVpufferthumbsup

vernal crest
#

The $h in her vanilla summer.000 string corresponds to $1 (the first 5 portraits have aliases of letters and you can use the letter or the number to indicate the correct portrait).

#

I don't know if you could target the inside of a schedule to add a schedule string (for the Sat schedule) or if you would have to replace the entire Sat schedule.

iron stream
#

ohhh so I'd change the $99 to $1 in the summer config

vernal crest
#

All of the values you are appending will need to be the correct number for her skipping portrait

iron stream
#

#h means her happy portrait? and since no portrait is referenced I'm guessing that means it defaults to her normal portrait. I'll try checking in-game to see if that's correct

vernal crest
#

In a few days, once 1.6.9 arrives, you might be able to use ReplaceDelimited for the Sat schedule...if I am understanding it correctly.

iron stream
#

Maybe I'll wait a few days before sending the message 😂 seems like new features from 1.6.9 will make this easier to use will come out

vernal crest
#

$h means her happy portrait (aka $1), yes. That's the one in summer.000 that you'd need to remove and then replace with the skipping portrait. For the other two strings she doesn't already have a portrait command (and you're right that means the default - $0 - is used) so you just need to append the correct value on.

Hey, it's been so long since I messed with draw calls, can someone tell me where is Furniture.drawAtNonTileSpot used (except to draw held item)? I can't remember all of its use-cases, and I'm starting to look into ignoring it if it's not used.

mod idea: if you fail a help wanted board/ it disappears from the help wanted board without being completed then there is a chance that another npc will head to the npc and give them the item instead.

I'm getting an aneurysm trying to wrap my head around how I made relative draw position work, and how the game handles draw position

You can use staminarect for this

brave fable
#

(you also really don't want to create a new Texture2D() most of the time, let alone on every single OnRendered draw call)

#

(honestly i'm amazed creating a default texture actually draws something when called)

lucid iron
# 
b.Draw(
        Game1.staminaRect,
        new Rectangle((int)localStartPos.X, (int)localStartPos.Y, 16, 16),
        Game1.staminaRect.Bounds,
        Color.Red,
        0f, Vector2.Zero,
        SpriteEffects.None,
        1f
)

This draws a red square

brave fable
#

you also want to use e.SpriteBatch instead of b = Game1.spriteBatch, the EventArgs e parameter for this event handler comes with an instance just for you

woeful lintel
#

you never set the pixels of your new Texture2D, and as someone told you already, you should create it once and reuse it instead of creating it each frame

brave fable
#

also to explain, Game1.staminaRect is a basic blank texture used for drawing coloured squares and overlays

#

it is not, as you would think, a rectangle

lucid iron
#

Oh I thought it was a singular pixel blobcatgooglyblep

tame moat
#

Awesome, thanks peeps 😄

woeful lintel
#

Something I did for a flat color rectangle is just a 1x1 texture with a white pixel, and change the source rectangle when drawing

calm nebula
#

fundamentally your problem is that texture2d does not clear memory on init

#

you get...something random. it's pretty fun.

brave fable
#

you'll also probably notice quite quickly that you're printing a value to log on every draw call too hahah

tame moat
#

Yeah, it was entertaining, lol

calm nebula
#

what you SHOULD do is use Game1.staminaRect (or pack your own single pixel texture that's just white)

#

secondly

#

making textures is considered an insanely stupidly expensive operation

ivory plume
#

(Tip: you can use Utility.DrawSquare instead of manually drawing a texture.)

#

(Despite the name, it can be any rectangle size.)

brave fable

rect is a texture, square is a rect, where will it all end SDVpufferpensive

#

SDV 2 will feature healthtriangle

brave fable
#

oh beloved sdv developer, are we encouraged to use TemporaryAnimatedSprite.GetTemporaryAnimatedSprite instead of new TemporaryAnimatedSprite in general cases (such as sparkles, wobbly things, wooshes, etc)

ivory plume
#

That returns a pooled instance, so you need to return it to the pool by calling sprite.Pool() when you're done with it. But if you do that, it reuses instances instead of allocating a new one for each animation that plays, so it's more efficient.

brave fable
#

don't they return to the pool when their alpha reaches 0?

#

i'd just assumed they did since my sprites apparently stop updating once they're invisible

ivory plume
#

Not directly, but looks like TemporaryAnimatedSpriteList returns an item to the pool when it's removed from the list. So in theory it should happen automatically in most cases (e.g. if you're adding it to location.tempSprites instead of a custom list).

brave fable

Location fish use item queries and conditions, so they can be very dynamic. For example, you can use a RANDOM_ITEM query with a DAY_OF_MONTH 24 condition. So there isn't an easy way to get a list of all possible fish.

vernal crest
# topaz salmon Hi guys, how do I identify a NPC string name? Just to make sure its string name ...

If you have Notepad++, VSC, or Sublime you can do a "find in files" search through the mod folder for "Data/Characters" which will take you to the file that the mod author has defined their NPC in. If you don't want to do a find in files search, you can manually look through their files to search for that (starting with content.json because it will either be in there or they will have an "Action": "Include" code block that will probably guide you to the right file.

Or you can just do "patch export Data/Characters" in your SMAPI window when your game is open, then go to your Stardew Valley folder and find the patch export folder, open up the file inside it and search for the NPC in there.

# vague acorn making an output that only appears when a specific flower is used

Ok this might be a stupid idea but I think this is doable with CP only with a combination of Machine Terrain Framework + SpaceCore
MTF adds a new field to machine rules which is a GSQ that has a bunch of extra custom params passed inside the context, including "tile the machine is on". SpaceCore has a GSQ for "has nearby crop" which only works if the context has a "Tile" parameter

#

so you can combine the two, and have a machine output item gated behind "there's a certain flower near this beehouse"

the problem is usually the frameworks, once the framework is updated, the mods should work fine, no?

latent mauve
#

Assuming that the framework doesn't have to change how the content packs are structured, then yes

ivory plume
#

1.6.9 is mostly new features (which shouldn't affect existing mods) and fairly technical changes (which will only affect some specific mods like the light source changes). Most mods should be unaffected in theory, but I'll be preparing the mod compatibility list for 1.6.9 this weekend so we'll have a better idea soon.

hard fern
#

if the content packs needs updating then it's up to the mod author to update them then

#

if I use addLantern in an event how do I then remove it? removeObject and removeSprite both don't seem to work.

ivory plume
#

The main mod compatibility issue in 1.6.9 is probably the net field changes; C# mod authors who have been ignoring build warnings since 2018 will have issues in 1.6.9.

(somewhere, a large portion of infrequently active mod authors just felt a chill)

#

addLantern adds a temporary sprite, so you can use removeSprite x y to remove it again.

#

removeTemporarySprites should work too in theory.

faint ingot
#

I am using addLantern 927 3 5 1/ , I chose an 'empty' icon from springObjects instead of the Lantern at 735, because I don't actually want the lantern, just the localized glow effect. is that why the glow isn't removing with removeTemporarySprites? should I be adding the glow some other way?

ivory plume
#

Nope, that should be fine. Essentially addLantern just does this:

context.Location.TemporarySprites.Add(new TemporaryAnimatedSprite(initialParentSheetIndex, 999999f, 1, 0, @event.OffsetPosition(tile * Game1.tileSize), false, false)
{
    lightId = @event.GenerateLightSourceId($"{nameof(AddLantern)}_{tile.X}_{tile.Y}"),
    lightRadius = lightRadius
});

It doesn't matter which sprite index or light radius you use, since removeSprite will remove any temporary sprite on the given tile.

rancid musk
#

I am still shocked at how little broke in my most transpiler-y mod with 1.6.9.

ivory plume
#

If you change it to use a visible sprite, does the sprite get removed even if the light stays behind? If so, that might be fixed in 1.6.9.

merry rampart
#

ok so im having an issue here.

my spouse doesnt leave my custom and not yet released farmhouse and i am unsure of why. i removed the farmhouse and reverted back to vanilla and she leaves. so... im not shre why she isnt leaving

hard fern
#

is something blocking her?

merry rampart
#

nope. no obstacles in the way. unless wooden flooring counts?

velvet narwhal
#

Are the warps set?

merry rampart
#

only on the main map. do i need to set warps on each of the renovations too?

shut bane
#

Probably a silly question, but my brain ain't cooperating today: is it possible to make a token to alternate between two values based on the in-game year? I want to make an outfit mod that alternates between two base sprite sheets every year.

#

I was trying to do so with a content patcher dynamic token

vernal crest
hard fern
#

arent each of the renovations a separate map? 🤔

lucid iron
#

You can do a modulo % to get even/odd years

shut bane
lucid iron
#

Yeah I believe so, you are basically trying to derive a token from the year token

merry rampart
lucid iron
shut bane
#

oh wait durr, I can load one set of sheets by default and swap when the year number is even. Shows how well I think at midnight

lucid iron
#

I'm not sure if gsq/condition has anything though

merry rampart
#

nope, she still isnt leaving

latent mauve
#

Double check your farmhouse warp out and make sure there are no NPC barriers blocking the exit?

ivory plume
shut bane
ivory plume
#

Essentially you're just assigning a new value to the same token in that case.

shut bane
#

kind of like a += operator?

merry rampart
hard fern
#

🤔 hmm

latent mauve
merry rampart
#

right, only the farmhouse map. when i reverted it back to vanilla, she was able to leave. so it's something wrong with my map

shut bane
#

ty all for the help, hopefully I can figure the rest out

rancid temple
#

Did you make the warp out the same in your farmhouse as vanilla?

merry rampart
rancid temple
#

Where is it going?

merry rampart
#

28 38 Farm 64 15 29 38 Farm 64 15

hard fern
#

oh

rancid temple
#

NPC pathing doesn't work on the farm by default I'm pretty sure

hard fern
#

it doesnt

rancid temple
#

You would have to patch out the path blockers on every exit if I recall

ivory plume
# shut bane kind of like a += operator?

Each new entry is essentially token = value, but you can do things like token = "{{token}}, value" for example.

Which allows for interesting things like...

  • incrementally build a list based on conditions (e.g. get the vanilla NPCs, then add SVE NPCs if that mod is installed, etc);
  • set an initial value, then override it based on conditions;
  • etc.
merry rampart
#

That's my Warp Map Property. I can't change it or else I won't be able to leave

rancid temple
#

Add an NPC only warp that goes to the bus stop

latent mauve
#

Yeah, create a NPCWarp tile inside your farmhouse for them to leave without going onto the Farm map

teal bridge
hard fern
#

so your spouse being stuck is probably because she actually can't leave 🤔

ivory plume
merry rampart
#

Nope she still isnt leaving

sweet sphinx
#

why remove items when you can just so significantly alter them to what you need?

rancid temple
#

Been trying to follow the logic for pathfinding and scheduling for spouse's, it's a lot and now I gotta run. Only other thing I can think is maybe it's a scheduling issue?

merry rampart
#

I thought of that but her schedule is fine. Besides, she wouldn't be able to leave the house in vanilla if it were a scheduling issue

#

Ok I've done everything I can think of. I've changed the warp, added NPC warp, added warp to the renovation maps... nothing. She still won't fking leave....

vernal crest
#

Are you still needing help with this?

merry rampart
#

FML... I figured it out.

It was because I had two buildings tiles right on the warp point. I was looking at the path from the stove to the door, the warp point itself completely did not occur to me

Hey,
I am trying to implement an inventory for horses, however I cannot figure out how to actually display a Menu which I can both place items in and take them out

There are like....five or six variants. Make sure to get the one meant for chests.)

if you haven't already decompiled the game code korsti, it's best if you do

# lofty ruin OH

beyond that, you would have to use quickQuestion if you're doing something that requires player input, the $q and $r is usually reserved only for actual dialogue lines outside of events

brave fable
#

excuse the tall text here

#

here's how the shipping bin sets the current menu on player clicked in ShippingBin.cs:doAction, obviously you won't be using this exact method but it gives you an idea:

ItemGrabMenu itemGrabMenu = new ItemGrabMenu(
    inventory: null,
    reverseGrab: true,
    showReceivingMenu: false,
    highlightFunction: Utility.highlightShippableObjects,
    behaviorOnItemSelectFunction: shipItem,
    message: "",
    behaviorOnItemGrab: null,
    snapToBottom: true,
    canBeExitedWithKey: true,
    playRightClickSound: false,
    allowRightClick: true,
    showOrganizeButton: false,
    source: 0,
    sourceItem: null,
    whichSpecialButton: -1,
    context: this);
itemGrabMenu.initializeUpperRightCloseButton();
itemGrabMenu.setBackgroundTransparency(b: false);
itemGrabMenu.setDestroyItemOnClick(b: true);
itemGrabMenu.initializeShippingBin();
Game1.activeClickableMenu = itemGrabMenu;
lucid iron
#

i think the important part is behaviorOnItemSelectFunction and behaviorOnItemGrab

#

u can skip highlightFunction if u dont need to filter

#

the very popular horse overhaul mod implemented saddle bags by placing a chest in an unreachable spot of the farm

brave fable
#

these days though we have global storage, so -1000,-1000 chests aren't needed

Also you risk the chests disappearing if the player uses the world_clear command

frail rapids
#

that's what I want to achieve

#

Also clicking an item causes it to be attached to my curser, rather than moving it around

lucid iron
#

you can't use ItemGrabMenu then

#

might wanna subclass it and do your special behavior in there

brave fable
#

yeah the shipping bin's instant-transfer behaviour comes from destroyItemOnClick, where you'd need custom behaviour to preserve the item since that's normally handled by the baked-in shipping bin logic on ItemGrabMenu

frail rapids
#

So there is nothing predefined, which does the same as chests

lucid iron
#

chests dont do that either though?

frail rapids
#

I described the behavior wrong

lucid iron
#

you click a thing in your inventory and it goes inside

#

you click a thing in chest and it comes out

frail rapids
#

Yes that exactly what I want to do

#

I decribed it wrong before

lucid iron
#

then yea just look at Chest.ShowMenu()

#

the default: case should be all you need

#

u can see that the transfer of items happen in grabItemFromInventory and grabItemFromChest

#

rn ur code just logs the items so no item transfer happens

(It could be interesting to add ForEachLocalTokens or something, so you can have one patch that's applied for each set of values.)

next plaza
#

That would be amazing - I feel like it'd be more useful if you could have more complex structures somehow though

teal bridge
#

(Did I say 5 days, earlier? Apparently I meant 5 hours.)

next plaza
#

Like, A: { Name: ..., Description: ..., ... }, B: { Name: ..., Description: ..., ... }, ...

ivory plume
#

Well, the idea is you could do this:

{
   "Action": "Include",
   "FromFile": "assets/add-hat.json",
   "ForEachLocalTokens": [
      {
         "Id": "PufferHat",
         "DisplayName": "Puffer Hat",
         "Description": "A hat that puffs up when you're threatened.",
         "Price": 500
      },
      {
         "Id": "ClownHat",
         "DisplayName": "Clown Hat",
         "Description": "A hat that jingles as you move.",
         "Price": 250
      }
   ]
}

Which would load assets/add-hat.json twice, and pass in the respective {{Id}}/{{DisplayName}}/{{Description}}/{{Price}} tokens. Not sure if that's what you mean?

frail rapids
next plaza
uncut viper
#

why not just make the original LocalTokens itself a list like that?

ivory plume
#

I think it would lead to some confusion, because the behavior of the LocalTokens list (call patch once for each entry) and the behavior of the DynamicTokens list (each entry can override the previous one) would be different.

#

(And replicating the DynamicTokens behavior on every patch would be prohibitively expensive performance-wise.)

lucid iron
#

could i foreach foreach

#

the particular case i have in mind was applying map properties to a large rectangular area

teal bridge
#

Just make all tokens be compilable C# expressions, done.

Yep. The file loaded through your Include patch with a ForEachTokens field can itself contain Include patches with their own ForEachTokens, nested as deeply as you want.

ichor what would get you to install spacecore AnnelieStare

sweet sphinx
#

one frame was missing some pixels, for some reason...

tiny zealot
#

to be clear, i have it around, but my standard mod loadout is tiny and nothing needs it, so i don't use it

lucid iron
#

yea that's fair, i think save serializer is the only thing i use consistently

#

maybe if i come up with idea for a skill one day bolbthinking

uncut viper
#

i was tempted to roll my own serialization for fun for museum framework but figured id just be making a worse, buggier version of the spacecore serializer

#

so i caved

#

bc i similarly do not want to use a bunch of string fields

velvet narwhal
#

you didn't want casey to be alone in the smapi warning? SMCKekLmaoDog

lucid iron
#

well you could shove ur stuff all into save data

brave fable
#

making a kinda shitty serialiser is almost a rite of passage

uncut viper
#

tbf that was back when the actual framework idea was more just me experimenting and messing around and not a solid mod idea
