I set his home location back to the custom one, and put Club in his schedule. He walked around the map, outside of boundaries, like a lost dog
I made a new save before trying that
brave fable
alternatively you can use what's called a 0-schedule to instantly set their location and tile for a schedule entry
unfortunately I've not worked with npcs enough to know the causes and solutions to voidwalking
could you send the full schedule entry here?
idle lantern
Sure. Let me save what I have really quickly. I appreciate the help!

you've tested your warp works correctly? you may need to sleep another day (the classic troubleshooting manoeuvre)

Yes
I've been remaking new saves each time. Let me try sleeping
I retyped my warps, just in case

Well, I want it to be caught in crab pots because ammocoetes are too small for fishing rods.

i think in that case you'll want to add a new entry to Data/Fish with the same general format and values as other crabpot fish, e.g. "717": "Crab/trap/.1/684 .45/ocean/1/20/false"

i suppose you could set "SpawnTime": 1 to have one spawn each day, and use "PopulationGates": null to remove any item requests?
i don't know whether there's existing behaviour for infinite fish, you'd likely want to make an object similar to the Worm Bin for that if a fishpond isn't productive enough
languid matrix
i don't know whether there's existing behaviour for infinite fish, you'd likely ...
Would it be possible to have a fish pond fish somehow produce more of itself in place of Roe?
brave fable
sure, i don't see why not - the "ProducedItems": [] field in Data/FishPondData just takes a generic item spawn query, so you could simply format it to make more fish. smart!
tender bloom
I think it’s a bug in archery framework because those few frames specifically need special handling, but I could be wrong.
languid matrix
Unrelated, but would it be possible to replace all newly-caught fish with a different fish when a certain quest is active?
I'm thinking of some sort of Qi Fish when the Qi Fruit quest is active as a (somewhat cruel) joke.
brave fable
perhaps an entry added to a location's Fish: [] data in Data/Locations with "Chance": 1 and some "Condition" game state query for a given special order/rule?
there's no default query for quests, but special orders would work fine

I'm implementing something like that where I replace one of the existing emotes under certain conditions, like this: { //replace heart emote at the farm (random option 3) "Action": "EditImage", "Target": "TileSheets/emotes", "FromFile": "assets/Textures/tilesheet_emotereplace.png", "FromArea": { "X": 0, "Y": 32, "Width": 64, "Height": 16 }, "ToArea": { "X": 0, "Y": 80, "Width": 64, "Height": 16 }, "When": { "Roommate": "{{Ripley}}", "HasFile:{{FromFile}}": true, "LocationName |contains=farm, farmhouse":true, "Random: {{Range:1, 10}}": "{{Range:1, 4}}" }, "Update": "OnLocationChange", },
So I would maybe start by looking at Tilesheets/emotes in the game files and seeing if that's the kind of thing you want to change and if there's a safe one for you to replace under the conditions you need

Anybody know if there's another version of the Character.doEmote method that causes the emote to show up for all players? That is, if you have code like abby.doEmote(Character.angryEmote); then the emote will only be visible for the current player - other players won't see the emote go off. I know how to work around this with mod-messaging, but perhaps this is a solved problem and I just don't know what the right call is...

found it. I had an old version still in my recycle bin

It's something very dumb, I wanted to check a mod dll to learn from some specific mods but I have no idea if there's a way to open one

DLL files are compiled C# source files, they're not readable by you or me. if you visit the mod page though you'll often find a link to the source code online on github or gitlab or somewhere similar

balmy venture
Did what? Sorry I'm that newbie
lucid iron
(that was towards stardio)
balmy venture
Oh
lucid iron
I wanted to try to convert the belt animations into junimos carrying stuff, not ...
Well i think that'd need draw offset on the actual belt objects, so they'd have to expose this for u to edit somehow too
balmy venture
Ya I tried to check how nerm did with his own animation but when I looked at the code it was as if I was reading greek 🤣
lucid iron
Replacing it with mini junimos might work out but yeah u r at mercy of how stardio setup the textures
No one else besides author can help u here
Worst case u can at least just make a png replacer
balmy venture
Ya I figured I'd check nerm first to see how they did it but hit a wall
That's what I planed, the pngs from stardio look simple but they dont cover the animations from what I can tell
lucid iron
I think it is just animated in c#
If u recolor the whole thing it'll probably work just fine
balmy venture
Ya that's why I can't understand it I'm sure
brave fable
i can't imagine it'd be easy to get a convincing effect; a conveyor animation is likely just a 2-frame png sequence, but a polished looking junimo anim would take something a little more bespoke
lucid iron
But yeah i say just do something simple like make the belt look more green
lucid iron
Anything more elaborate is gonna be send PR to stardio for anim so...

No guarantees yet, but I do hope to convert more slash-delimited strings to data assets in 1.6.16 or later versions.

raven salmon
It's not changing automatically ;-;
woeful lintel

Furniture will most likely be data-asset-ified in 1.6.16 too. (Previous Content Patcher packs will still work, since Content Patcher will have a compatibility migration.)

Surely its less if it becomes a data asset and you get to do less work?
I mean u have to start supporting the new version but... if it does some stuff that you were planning you save work!
brittle pasture
tbh I wouldn't bother with cross version compat
just tell people to stay on the old version if they are on 1.6.15
also woo, I can move furniture machine away from saving furniture non-machine data in Data/Machines because that's the only vanilla alternative lmao
woeful lintel
just tell people to stay on the old version if they are on 1.6.15
yeah, I'll probably do that
woeful lintel
Surely its less if it becomes a data asset and you get to do less work?
FF replaces so much stuff, any change to the Furniture class will be a mess... The best case for me is if the new data model has the exact same fields as the current string data (so that I don't have more stuff to fill)
removing things that FF does because vanilla can do it isn't what I'd call "saving work"
rigid oriole
I mean obviously it'd require changes lol
woeful lintel
Anyway, please do not let anything I'm saying influence a potential change to Furniture: data assets are always better than delimited string
blissful panther
Yeah, I would definitely not bother keeping a 1.6.15 version up to date. I'd probably keep the latest 1.6.15 version available in the optional files section, but that's about it.

Hey guys, does anyone know how to null an entry in Appearance in Data/Characters?
This is what I tried, but it was clearly wrong (EDIT: it was actually right): ``` {
"LogName": "Alex Appearance Data",
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/Characters",
"TargetField": [
"Alex",
"Appearance"
],
"Entries": {
"Winter": null,```
(then the rest of the editdata with adding new entries follows)
Winter is the log name of the entry.
vernal crest
You don't want him to have a winter outfit?
orchid glade
We want him to have an indoor and an outdoor winter outfit which we have loaded separately.
But the vanilla one is showing instead.
Alternatively, I guess we could use the vanilla winter entry for indoor, and edit it to "outdoor": false ?
vernal crest
You can null every field within the object or you can just set the entirety of Appearance to null. Or yes, you can edit that one (including its Id, I think, to make its ID consistent with the rest of your ID naming scheme) to make it one of your entries instead.
orchid glade
So how do I target that object?
ornate trellis
oof i am messing up ma animation, i might jsut redo the sheet with all needed ones even if theyre doubled
vernal crest
Actually, I think I tried the approach of nulling every field and it didn't like that (different asset but still list of objects). It might be enough to null just the ID though.
orchid glade
I'd be happy to null Appearance, but I assume beach is on there too
vernal crest
Edit to save others from copying this incorrect stuff in future (correct one is this #making-mods-general message):
To null the ID it might be this:
{ // THIS IS WRONG, DON'T USE IT
"LogName": "Alex Appearance Data",
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/Characters",
"TargetField": [
"Alex",
"Appearance"
],
"Entries": {
"Winter": {
"Id": null // NO, WRONG, DON'T DO IT
}
}
}
Or it might be this:
{ // THIS IS WRONG, DON'T USE IT
"LogName": "Alex Appearance Data",
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/Characters",
"TargetField": [
"Alex",
"Appearance",
"Winter"
],
"Entries": {
"Id": null // NO, WRONG, DON'T DO IT
}
}
(Sorry I can't say with certainty - I don't know the underlying logic about how this stuff works so I usually do trial and error.)
vernal crest
I'd be happy to null Appearance, but I assume beach is on there too
Nope, Beach is not set via Appearance.
vernal crest
Yeah it predates the Appearance system and is hardcoded
orchid glade
Work outfit is though for other NPCs
vernal crest
Nulling the entire Appearance field is quite a nuclear option so if you can avoid it I'd recommend doing so
vernal crest
I think the best approach is just to edit the existing Winter one into your desired form, but I can also see an argument for just yeeting it and adding all the outfits in exactly the same way to avoid confusion.
orchid glade
Ok that first option didn't do it, trying second one now...
vernal crest
So if I null the id, does that remove the whole object?
I'm hoping so, but I'm not actually sure. The CP docs say that you edit a list of models the same way as editing a dictionary but doesn't show how that works for deleting.
orchid glade
Hmm
vernal crest
Are you doing a patch export to check?
orchid glade
Ahh I was but I didn't that time because he was wearing the vanilla outfit lol
vernal crest
It might be worth doing it anyway because then you can see what, if anything, actually happened to the json.
If one of the C# people was here they could just tell us lol
orchid glade
As far as I can tell nothing happened to the json at all argh, I'll check log
vernal crest
If it's not doing anything, including throwing an error, that's a sign your patch just might not be applying. I definitely got errors when I tried setting some fields to null (because I was attempting to yeet the entire object and it was not working, so I was just setting non-optional fields to null instead).
orchid glade
Yeah it seems to be not applying. Hmmm, it was for the other seasons.
I'll put the code up on smapi
royal stump
This is what I tried, but it was clearly wrong (EDIT: it was actually right): ``...
I might've missed context, but your* first example does remove an entry from the list, if that's the goal

Let's say I have two lists of names. List A: "Elliott, Shane, Abigail, Maru", List B: "Penny, Elliott, Sam". Is there a way to extract a value that exists in both of these lists with CP (e.g. "Elliott"). OK to return blank if no value is in both lists
I realize that I might be writing more C# for this, just wanted to see if there was an inbuilt already. I can't think of one at the moment :/
tiny zealot
in the context of CP, what are you actually trying to do with the value you extract?
tribal ore
I have a token that returns a list of bachelors with 10 hearts. I also have a list of bachelors whose special events happen in the rain. I want to extract a "rainy 10 hearts bachelor" on days when it is raining
Right now, I can easily grab a random one and just hope that the preconditions match
But if I get a "sunny" bachelor on a day its raining, it feels like a waste because no event would trigger that day
And I'm betting that telling the game to start raining on day start would be a little janky?
vernal crest
You could maybe use Merge to do a check for both? I'm not exactly sure if it works the way you'd need it. I've never used it.

in the event setup you have “read” which isn’t valid (are you trying to animate a character to be reading? you have to do so manually)
i think you’re missing escaped quotes for your speak command
balmy valve
Okay, there is an animation titled "read"
ornate trellis
you also need to set up the npc before you animate them, dont you
ornate trellis
Okay, there is an animation titled "read"
those are just for schedules
urban patrol
unfortunately you’ll have to use the animate command
balmy valve
it's only one frame
urban patrol
oh just one frame is easy
urban patrol
but it has to be after the required setup commands (music, viewport, positions, etc)
balmy valve
okay
ornate trellis
if its jsut one frame you can use ShowFrame
balmy valve
will it show it until i make it show a different frame?
And how do I specify which character's frame to show?
urban patrol
i thought there was a stop show frame command but it doesn’t look like there is
ornate trellis
it tells you on the event page i linked
urban patrol
And how do I specify which character's frame to show?
the commands on the wiki have the required and optional arguments on the entry in the table
<> means required

What are tile sets for?
balmy valve
make funy map
balmy valve
What are tile sets for?
Basically, the tile sets tell the game how to put them together like puzzle pieces
Like
They are the puzzle pieces, and the game puts them together to make silly image
balmy valve
You can even make cool "custom" furniture by frankensteining together tiles
lucid iron
Tilesets are also just pngs
But they are arranged in 16x16 tiles for usage in map making
The birch tree is not part of map, but sve may have put purely decorative birch trees into it's maps (i.e. ones you can't chop down)
Whether they use same png depends on how mod is setup
proven jackal
Oh that's fine actually then. I only care about the ones I'm placing. Making a candy farm, but I hate the way the birch looks
Thanks for all the info!

Working on my unofficial update for the Archery Framework some more it seems the issue that prevents the new items being added to the shop is that when attempting to patch the ShopMenu class, Harmony Patcher returns null when it attempts to access the constructors. It still returns null even with the parameters updated to reflect the contructor's new parameters. Attempting to replace AccessTool.Constructor with AccessTools.DeclaredConstructor also hasn't fixed the issue.

Use Data/Shops instead

...Ah.
Well, I guess I'll just have to do that then. This may cause an entire rewrite of the shop code, or at least commenting out the old code. Does it just get added to the shop automatically when the game loads up?

Would I also have to use Data/Shops in C# or just edit the item json files to add them to the shop like in Content Patcher?

you can do either
doing it in C# is just doing it yourself compared to letting CP do it for you

yeah, both times you wrote speak you did \\speak instead of /speak

how do i separate the answer1 and answer2 scripts tho

in the command you pasted earlier, you didn't have any (break)s
you have to use the literal text (break) to split apart the scripts (and the scripts are delimited by \, which requires you to type \\, as covered)

livid drum
Yeah, I'm on the page just now. I'm not exactly great at thinking abstractly so it's a bit difficult for me.
balmy valve
Should I put spaces before/after the (break)s?
tiny zealot
it probably doesn't matter, but i never add spaces there
livid drum
I should probably look a bit more at how the items are added.
balmy valve
should i put the \\ before or after the (break)?
im (break)ing down everybody
Okay yeah it's still not working
she just says all three dialogues in a row and says the (break) as part of her dialogue

I cannot figure out how this mod stores the weapons and stuff, I know thy're loaded in through jsons but idk how the data is passed into the mod or if the items are stored anywhere.
Maybe it's time to throw in the towel.

Alright, I think(hope) I'm understanding some of it.

Alright, this is the section I wanna change (found under Data/Locations). I wanna change line 192 and 193 to include the item id for Supply Crates (922). How would I go about that? I thought id use an EditData action, but im not sure how to specify that particular section, as there are several sections like that without some kinda unique header.
idle lantern
I wonder if you can utilize the conditions null section
Do you want it to be o152 until a specific point, or you just want that gone?
ocean crypt
I want o152 to stay there. starting at line 237, you can see where this category has multiple items (covering the mussel, coral, etc that you can catch at the beach farm). I want to make the previous line like that by adding in the crate to the seaweed section (o152, which is the id for seaweed)

https://forums.stardewvalley.net/threads/adding-one-fish-to-beach-location-overwrites-fish-spawn-pool.28378/ check this forum post, it seems similar. They use Content Patcher to append data for fishing
Instead of Beach, maybe Beach_farm would work?
they used the SVE code as an example - I think SVE edits farm fishing, I bet it'd be copyable

And can multiple locations be patched simultaneously?

pathos what about fish tank
can u make 1x1 tanks with this
and 1x1 storage furniture
ivory plume
This doesn't really change how fish tanks and storage furniture work. Are you unable to create 1x1 versions of those with the current Data/Furniture? Now that it's been data-asset-ified, it's much easier to make changes if needed.
lucid iron
well rn if u make a 1x1 fish tank u cant put fish bc the capacity is based on width
however if u do mod it to let fish in, the fish enter the Pain Dimension because the swiming bounds is too small and they turn around every tick
also if u did this and then put the tank on a table, u lose all the fish
so yea idk what is best here 
between dehardcode fish tank and not making fish enter pain dimension
ivory plume
That could possibly be something we look at when/if there's a mod author beta for 1.6.16, if there's someone with an repro content pack to test with at that point.

i have a wish for furniture data model to get something akin to buildings (collision maps, draw layers, tile actions) but aside from actions, im not sure if any vanilla furniture would use these
ivory plume
Tile actions are a definite possibility, and collision maps could maybe be added. Draw layers are likely out of scope for vanilla though.
lucid iron
aye ill just save these thoughts for beta 
still would be excellent to dehardcode actions like show calendar so ppl can make modded ones without additional framework

Question about scheduling...

Hi!
I'm struggling with correctly loading my map into the game. I know that the problem is the loading of the tilesheets. However, I'm not sure how it should be correct.
If I know correctly, I have to have the tilesheets next to the tmx map file to edit the map. Then, both the game and Tiled don't have any problems in loading the map. However, when I delete the tilesheets (which I will have to do (after I will create public releases) because of the rights (and also because of the mod size,...)), the game won't load the map at all, and Tiled will show the error that the tilesheets are missing.
Therefore, my question is - how to solve this?

I'd like to make a cutscene where the player has choices to spy on other people. Would it make more sense to use the 'change event' coding than trying to do all of that withink quickQuestion or question prongs?

I think that using switchEvent with quickQuestion gives you the most flexibility in how to do things because then you can easily put more quickQuestions in the routes and/or give them separate endings etc.

Theoretical question:
How difficult would it be to make a mod that added a Farmhands Barracks which allowed the recruiting of farmhand NPCs that worked on your farm, watering, harvesting etc etc? Like, junimos on steroids?
You'd have to pay them, feed them, and they'd work better with better pay and conditions etc etc.
I have zero coding/modding skills and just want to know if the idea is viable and how difficult it would be.

hm another localized text benefit: i can patch reload translations now
lucid mulch
Tbh if I was doing content mods I think I ditch smapi i18n entirely and go all in on localised text.
Get the full power of the asset pipeline and in the case of cp, full use of tokens unrestricted without any of the weird plumbing
lucid mulch
Blueberry already does it with love of cooking and the English localisation is just a content pack
lucid iron
but i like this more than the i18n way of formatting string
[LocalizedText {{ModId}}.i18n:couch.name [LocalizedText {{ModId}}.i18n:couch01.name]]
and then
"couch.name": "{0}黑金沙发",
"couch01.name": "玫瑰·",
so i get 玫瑰·黑金沙发 in game
lucid mulch
Also means you never even need to think about when stuff gets baked into the save or not, as localised text is safe there anyway
lucid iron
hm i wonder if it would work for the weird ring description issue
lucid mulch
Still need to semi think about it in terms of what keys are breaking changes
calm nebula
Tbh I think of it in this way
I18n has nice fallback
I would rather fall back to English over gibberish
lucid mulch
Blueberry does that by doing an early edit data in English and then has the other languages default/late edit to populate with the language in question

but yea hm that one is good point maybe ill move it to include then
that said it is also just for flexibility, able to i18n if needed

does anyone know how the better truffles mod work? i want to use its mechanics on my otters but it doesn't have a content file so i can't figure it out
brittle pasture
it hardcodes truffles specifically
actually
To enable the bubble indicator for their products, the mod author will have to add "temisthem_bettertruffles" as a context tag to their custom item in content.json. Adding this context tag for other objects will also cause the bubble to display too.
ornate moon
so i can't do anything about it?
brittle pasture
see my correction above
you need to add the tag to the object that your otters dig up
ornate moon
so it'll be like temisthem_betteroceanstone?
brittle pasture
no, that tag exactly
ornate moon
and that will also remove the bubble from the otters like for pigs not having bubbles anymore?
brittle pasture
that's a different mod I think

This might be me being dumb as usual bit why would you need to hardcode that
uncut viper
(does it still hardcode it after the big revamp?)
calm quiver
Question. If I'm doing a texture pack, can I just modify all the items I'm replacing in sprinobjects and then use edit image in content.json? Or do I have to do an action for every item I replace?
Rn I'm just dragging the textures over the unpacked map and then targeting the original.
uncut viper
if you can do an Overlay then one EditImage would suffice
brittle pasture
This might be me being dumb as usual bit why would you need to hardcode that
1.5 stuff probably
animals are still a giant ol pile of hardcoding then
uncut viper
but overlay means you'd need to cover the existing pixels of an item with a new pixel and not have any transparent parts that dont overlap bc thats what overlay does
if you are replacing every single thing in springobjects (every thing) then one EditImage as Replace will also work or a Load
but if the things you'r replacing are disconnected from each other then you'll want multiple actions
bc you'll have to define the individual rectangles
calm quiver
oooof okay
I am going to replace everything eventually but I’m just tryna see them in game 😭
What I’ve done so far anyways
uncut viper
if you just wanna see them in game you can just Load or EditImage over the entire thing
calm nebula
Just temporarily load your entire sheet
Not great for compat but you can do the code later
Give me back the brain cell button
uncut viper
the reason you'd need multiple if you didnt change every thing is bc you would be editing the originals back on top of themselves by loading springobjects_edited on top of springobjects
calm nebula
I'll give you a popsticker in return
uncut viper
which isnt bad if you have no other mods... but odds are in a big mod list, theres some other mod editing springobjects out there who would be overwritten by you doing that
and effectively reset to vanilla
gentle rose
(button ignoring the chaos and continuing to give advice)
uncut viper
(or if you removed the unchanged ones from your edited springobjects.png, then you'd be replacing them with blank spaces)
calm quiver
Hold on
Ok
So why exactly can’t I just replace the objects I want and then…leave everything else there
uncut viper
bc you cant do "only replace these specific, disconnected sections" in one EditImage
calm quiver
Like what I’m doing is deleting the original image and replacing it. Am I supposed to put it on a new layer?
