If it becomes a problem surely they will say smth

#

I wouldn't be confident making sweeping assumptions about 821,000 mods

uncut viper

#

Oh so if a mod has a conditional field/data in the asset, the entire asset will be reloaded. Like right now we have AccessibleTileData which takes in "map" entries and the tile descriptions. so every mod would add their tiles to this asset. And when one of them updates, everything reloads, that could cause performance issues i think.

Maybe we should have two assets? One that is supposed to be static and does not change under any circumstance so I don't invalidate its cache, and the other is dynamic so invalidation is done like normal.

SMAPI has an AssetsInvalidated event for you to watch, as shown on that page.

I didn't see anything else other than the name of the asset invalidated in the event args, can we atleast know which mod's data (for an asset) is invalidated?

calm nebula
uncut viper
#

You cannot see which entry specifically changed.

calm nebula
#

Like, huh, you get two screenshots, badly cropped

uncut viper
#

You can only see that an asset was invalidated, and the next time you (or anyone else) does a Game1.content.Load for it, it will be with a fresh set of data

calm nebula
#

Oh, you want to know what the mod does? Please refer to the markdown documentation

calm nebula
uncut viper
#

Reloading assets can be a performance concern, and this is why most people try to avoid OnTimeChange assets. But for just your own asset, don't worry about it.

calm nebula
#

You can hide a lot of sins in that map warp time

lucid iron
uncut viper
#

It gets bad if people change LooseSprites/Cursors or a bunch of portraits every 10 in game minutes. Changing your custom dictionary at towk/MyAsset is practically nothing.

#

The game does a lot more than that every single tick.

lucid iron
#

You just can't really do something like "list all assets that match memod/meassets/* (crimes to the content manager aside)

frosty gate
lucid iron
#

If you expect some kind of conditional need for your asset, it's better to provide Conditions

#

Rather than force people to use cp tokens/when

frosty gate
uncut viper
#

I'm saying you should not care that your asset is being reloaded every time CP updates it.

#

It's a negligible amount of work being done.

frosty gate
#

oh i see, and that is what I mean by static earlier 🙂

uncut viper
#

I'm also saying do not assume it is static.

#

You should have your asset and you should cache its data, and you should purge that cache whenever your asset is Invalidated

#

You should handle invalidation

lucid iron
#

I feel like using tile property isn't that bad, it's just a massive pain to apply to every tilesheet

#

Because tsx isn't a thing u can load and share across multiple mods rn

frosty gate
#

And I just had an Idea of maybe having dynamic Asset name?
So maybe like this shoaib.stardewaccess/AccessibleTilesData/<map name>
So this way at least we can limit the updattions to individual maps.

lucid iron
#

No you should use the tilesheet asset imo

barren tapir
#

I'm not sure. I'm trying to do the following:

  • Allow tappers to be placed on giant crops
  • Have tappers on giant crops produce a new artisan good, "Flavored Syrup," with the following properties:
    -- Price = 5 + floor(base/3)
    -- Has gold quality when produced while the giant crop is in season
    -- Affected by the tapper profession/whatever profession boosts the price of tapped items
    -- Has a production time equal to ceiling(initial crop growth time/2)

I was originally going to do a content pack using the CustomTapperFramework, but I'm not sure if its possible to do this without the use of C#.

If it is possible to do this via content patcher, I'd much prefer that.

Thanks!

lucid iron
#

Let's say i make map using Maps/hime_outdoorfurniture from hxw tilesheets

#

If the tilesheet mod has stardew access integration and described everything on the sheet, then I don't do anything more

frosty gate
lucid iron
#

If i also make a custom tilesheet just for my mod i also do the stardew access integration for Maps/chu_special_sheet

#

Now rather than getting info per map you can inspect the map's tilesheet assets n construct the full picture that way

#

Whether u do 1 big asset or several smaller asset doesn't make a huge difference

frosty gate
#

hmm. i don't think this work well for dynamic tiles right? But then we can use CP to edit tilesheets as well.

lucid iron
#

Do note that someone has to Load the asset in order to EditImage

lucid iron
#

Or you still provide a map level override for specific things

#

Starting with tilesheet reduces everything having to go "these tiles on hime_outdoorfurniture is a picnic table" separately

#

The game's innate system of changing maps generally alter the tiles as in switch them to another tile id, so if ur descriptions are mapped to tile id, and a tile changed due to nighttiles, you would know

gaunt orbit
lucid iron
#

Across my various framework mods, there's only been one case where i did subassets and the possible ids are completely known at launch (it's all the mod ids that depend on me)

#

In all other cases, I just did a Dictionary<string, WhateverCustomModel> because it's less spaget to glue together

#

I don't think the perf is that much of a concern with data models SMCPufferjail

gaunt orbit
#

the quality thing might be tricky because giant crops aren't seasonal, and I'm not sure if they retain references to the seed they grew from

uncut viper

(They null out the Crop instance when they grow into one)

# lucid iron Starting with tilesheet reduces everything having to go "these tiles on hime_out...

Thanks. I think I understand what you mean. And I guess this is the best solution for static tiles at least (tiles with no interaction based changes). And we can also use CP to add tilesheets. So the existing "TileDesc" property solution remains, but should segregate into multiple properties? Like "TileCategory".

I'm just not sure how I'll tackle dynamic tiles. For example the feeding benches, they're empty by default and when the player adds Hay, its state changes.

lucid iron
#

Hay is an object

frosty gate
lucid iron
#

For example maybe I use a book tile and it's actually supposed to be a registry for the player to interact with

lucid iron
frosty gate
# lucid iron Hay is an object

Yes, but in order to correctly and concisely describe the tile we have it say like, Empty Feeding bench when hay is not present.

lucid iron
#

You are looking at a combination of states then

#

A tile and a object placed in world

#

Having a separate asset for object place in world makes sense to me, since stuff like stone and weed r also just objects

#

I dunno if it's that important that the underlying tile is bench to your users bolbthinking

#

There can be case where hay object isn't on the map trough via mods

frosty gate
lucid iron
#

Yeah so i think hay is bad example for this

#

Let's say I got this tile on tilesheet, it is normally invisible and then I do CP EditImage to make it a trapdoor based on a mailflag (is just example not real mod)

#

This mailflag is a content patcher When HasFlag

#

Now when I go add stardew access integration, I also just do a conditional edit on the tile desc asset you have

#

On flag change, content patcher would invalidate the tilesheet and the stardew access asset

#

So after they both get reloaded they'd match up

#

This is case where I actually change the tilesheet asset though, so reloading is the only choice bolbsun

#

If i instead had 2 tiles one invisible one trapdoor

#

I describe both of them in my stardew access edit

#

And then i do an EditMap to change the tile over to trap door

#

The tile id would have changed and there's no stardew access asset invalidation

barren tapir
frosty gate
#

Makes sense.

#

Thanks I'll sleep on this and get back to ya. If this works than we won't need the custom data asset. I'm just going back and forth to data asset and tile property solution lol.

lucid iron
#

Oh no i recommend the custom asset lol

#

You know how vanilla tilesheets have properties like Water T on the tilesheet

#

Rather than as objects

frosty gate
lucid iron
#

This works well within 1 map and any instance that uses that tile is Water T

#

But there's no way to share this tilesheet metadata, aka tileset, across different maps using the same tilesheet asset

#

They all gotta individually go declare Water T

#

Your custom asset can bridge the gap by letting people say "tile 194 on Maps/spring_a_sheet is Water" regardless of which map this tilesheet asset appears in

#

(replace Water with other kind of a11y desc as desired)

frosty gate
#

I see I see.

#

So I guess I should complete the custom asset integration and all, and public the beta so we can have a real benchmark of things and then decide how to tackle dynamic tiles. Dynamic tiles are maybe like 10% of the total tiles btw so we really shouldn't over-engineer lol.

If I want to change dialogue or portrait for a specific NPC based on a marriage condition (only change their dialogue or appearance when the player is married to a certain NPC) using CP, how would this work in multiplayer? Does the host control these changes for everyone, or can they happen locally per player? For example, if a non-host player marries the target NPC, can another NPC’s dialogue be changed only for that player?

uncut viper
#

Everything Content Patcher does is done locally. However you can have Content Patcher check specifically the host to see who their spouse is, or also check if "any" player has a specific spouse

fallow musk
#

how do recolor mods work? Do they apply the new coloring on every sprite of the game and patch them?

uncut viper
#

Yes, they use edited versions of every relevant image asset and use an EditImage patch to apply them

#

(EditImage in Content Patcher. I don't know of any recolours using C#)

#

Nightshade is an exception, it uses shader stuff to change colours.

#

Whether you count that as a recolour or not though is up to you.

pine sinew
uncut viper
#

The host doesn't share assets

#

World and game state is a separate concept

#

Applying edits with Content Patcher is like applying edits directly to the files inside your game's Content folder in the install directory

#

Host cannot do that for you, nor can other farmhands

#

But Content Patcher can check the host and other farmhands for things, and use that to determine that it should change your files for you

pine sinew
#

Gotcha. Tysm!

uncut viper
#

By default, checks will look at the "current" player. Which for the most part, just means "you, whoever is in charge of this game window"

#

(Which isn't always the same person in split screen where every player gets their own effective game window)

i want to know how feasible this is for a custom npc,, if you dont mind

basically hes a farmer with an underground farm, but instead of it being in a cave, its underwater
i was inspired by the harvest goddess in harvest moon games lol
im thinking you have to throw a certain amount of crops into the lake to trigger a cutscene and then you can enter it but... that sounds very difficult to do
i know nothing abt making mods for this game so idk what is and isnt possible

urban patrol
#

making an NPC: very doable
underwater map: very doable in terms of visuals, difficult if you want things like the player swimming
counting number of crops thrown into the lake: difficult/impossible without a framework
conditionally making the underwater map able to be entered: very easy

#

for the crops thrown into the lake, you could check out unlockable bundles

lethal wadi
#

oh yeah, bundles, thats a good idea
thank you for the breakdown! very helpful SDVemoteheart

urban patrol
#

we have tutorials for things like making maps and NPCs so if you want those just ask

It's not too too hard when you figure out what you're doing. Just, don't ask ChatGPT or any of those for pointers. Their coding is really weird...

lethal wadi
#

oh yeah no, definitely not lol

lucid iron
#

I don't think u can throw things normally

#

Maybe if u just make a special order "put 100 parsnip in dropbox"

uncut viper
#

well dragging and dropping things out of your inventory is throwing

lucid iron

And then do a lil event

Where the player throws temporaryanimatedsprites into the water

in that case @lethal wadi if you want to add BETAS as a dependency, it has a ton of awesome features and if button adds this item-fell-in-water trigger you could unlock your map that way

"HasVisitedLocation |contains=Club": false,

this would be the correct way to write this right? for the when condition for visiting a location?

#

I havent done this in a couple months so it's a bit foggy

lucid mulch

that would test whether they haven't visited the location

rigid musk
#

yeah so if an edit data entry had that as a condition if they havent visited the casino it would load right

lucid mulch
#

correct, but also keep in mind the patch also wont run until the save is loaded to know that

during main menu the token isn't ready so it also wont run

rigid musk

You can also unpatch it

Documenting stuff is hard and tedious so thanks for people doing it

wraith bay

So one method wouldn't be preferred over the other, then? Spose I could try both, see what works.

uncut viper
#

Well like chu said it depends on how permanent you need it

#

Once you unpatch it, it's a lot more of a pain for you to repatch it if you want the functionality there again later

lucid iron

If u actually want the side door to be conditional somehow a skip prefix would work better cus u just return true or false

wraith bay

Nah. Its gone gone. I don't need it back.

Hi all! I tried looking for a similar problem in the chats but couldn't spot one, so I thought I'd ask. My friend and I are building a mod that adds two npcs to the game, and it's like 75% done right now so we're making good progress. However, trying to make the npcs work with other expansions and npc mods has been challenging, particularly with Ridgeside Village because whenever SpaceCore is installed, the pathing seems to break. Instead of walking out of their attic apartment like regular people, our npcs walk through walls and into the void. We're beginner modders with practically no coding experience to speak of, and I haven't figured out what SpaceCore actually does yet. Is there something specific I should be doing to the maps or the npc schedules to make them work with SpaceCore?

#

Please explain it to me like I'm 5 if possible haha, on top of not being very proficient at mod making just yet, English is also not my first language

ornate locust
#

hmm

#

that's a new one on me. SpaceCore usually improves pathing, to my knowledge. Hopefully someone knows more about its quirks than me

lucid iron
#

so something spacecore does is improve the macro pathfinder

#

this is like "i need to get from mountain to beach how do i walk there?" kind of pathfinding

#

if you find that the pathing has changed as a result of spacecore being installed, i would check if you have unintended warps on your map

#

this mod has a layer that shows warps (in blue)

dusty lotus
#

Oh, that's a good point... We used Elliott's house as the base for our map, and the npc is trying to get to the beach, so I guess they might be trying to find a shortcut... Didn't even consider there might be leftover warps

#

Thanks, I'll check that out and see if I can fix the issue

#

for cost you can use CopyPrice and it should duplicate the base price into the output item; you can them modify it further with PriceModifiers
for days... hard coding every case is an option (ie if input item is Parsnip growth is 4 days, if input item is Kale growth is 6 days), but this is where the custom output method would be useful

#

so you can do the look up against game data yourself in C#

anybody know how i might implement a wild rabbit running out of a bush into an event? i've been looking for the sprite for it for like twenty minutes now in the unpacked files, but didn't see it in LooseSprites, where i figured it might be located. i'm assuming this would be a temporary animated sprite type deal?

barren tapir

OMG I'M AN IDIOT. I just realized I was looking at the wrong thing for the output method 😅.

i guess u just do a TAS

rabbits have a pretty simple motion

calm nebula

you're gonna want acceleration 0 but movement probably at least 2 (or -2)

stark ocean
#

ahhh okie, this is a scary section SDVpuffergasp other than the wiki, anyone got any good links for a tut on how a TAS is formatted? like an example or something similar?

urban patrol
#

my advice is go slow, make sure you're keeping track of each index, and don't be afraid to get it wrong and change things

brave fable
#

it's really very simple, just irritating keeping track of all the unnamed number fields

urban patrol
#

i might be able to find some old code of mine from when i made a bird flying away but i ended up changing the event so idk

stark ocean
#

eeeek haha. i'll see what i can do

urban patrol
#

yeah my bird TAS did not survive i didn't commit it

stark ocean
#

sad!! thanks for looking though </3

brave fable
#

so for example if you wanted a vegetable running across the screen you might use temporaryAnimatedSprite Maps\\springObjects 64 0 16 16 600 12 999 27 35 false false 35 0 1 0 0 0 motion -2 0
which would use the 16x16 sprite at pixel coordinates 64,0 in the Maps/springObjects spritesheet, playing a looping animation of the following 12 frames at 600ms per frame, repeating 999 times (basically endless), created at tile 27 35, and moving 2 pixels left each frame

#

very simple, very easily tweaked until you get what you need

urban patrol
#

ohhh i thought it was tiles/second not pixels/frame

brave fable
#

not far off, but also not as intuitive

#

a TAS isn't even scaled to game time unless specified (in c# or in 1.6.16 alpha events) so motion is variable based on your framerate

urban patrol
#

wack

brave fable
#

wisdom

stark ocean
#

how do you know where the pixel coordinates are within the spritesheet?

uncut viper
#

sometimes the only difference between wack and wisdom is one InvalidCastException: Specified cast is not valid. Event.TemporaryAnimatedSprite() Unable to cast float to int. (Line 53)

patent lanceBOT
uncut viper
calm nebula
#

Line 53? You lie

brave fable
#

you can also do simple calculations on some spritesheets based on position if you know there's a standard sprite size in the sheet, i.e. Maps/springObjects has 16x16 sprites so the coordinates are always going to be the x,y number of the sprite you want multiplied by 16

others like the Critters spritesheet for rabbits might not be standard

even windows Paint will tell you pixel coordinates under cursor

stark ocean
#

aseprite seems to show the coords thankfully

latent mauve
#

Unless something's changed recently, Krita doesn't show pixel coordinates under cursor because it impacted performance too much.

#

It's not that hard to work around

brave fable
#

in any case be sure to round your pixel coordinates to some reasonable multiple like 8

#

occasionally you might overlap into another sprite if you choose some good-enough approximation

urban patrol
#

god you know what kills me? the fact that pathfinding can vary by pixels so if an NPC approaches a schedule point from two different directions they'll be positioned totally different depending, especially if you want to offset them like to sit on a couch

i agree that is cursed

#

@ pathos 1.6.16 pls thx

uncut viper
#

Sanity check: After an Item.addToStack() call, there's no reason that the before/after difference in stack size for the incoming item should ever be different from the before/after difference in stack size for the stacked-on item... right?

tiny zealot
#

uh

#

i would think not, but this seems like the sort of question one asks when observation contradicts one's assumptions

uncut viper
#

No, just asked when uncertain how widely addToStack is patched and/or used by other mods that might do things I wasn't accounting for

tiny zealot
#

i am using addToStack a bit for my current Inventory Bullshit but i'm not patching it or doing anything else unseemly

uncut viper
#

Commendable

#

It seems like the most Base function to patch so I sure as hell hope no other mod is doing stack management manually

#

Base in the sense that All roads of adding to stack lead to Item.addToStack

Hello internet modders!! Any ideas as to why mail would be sent right away at the start of the game and ignore conditions?

#

I'm trying to make a MailFlag for her appearance to change. It worked before, but now it's sending immediately according to EventRepeater...

#

Specifically at RosalieWCFlag

#

the flareup ones do it too for some reason but I'm not worrying about it right now

urban patrol
#
  1. i don't know if this is your issue but your entries and their IDs should match to avoid weird behavior. you should also probably avoid spaces in them
  2. you can combine each patch to the same target into just one patch with multiple entries to improve readability if you want
  3. you can skip needing a trigger action to add a CT on mail received by simply adding the CT inside the mail itself
  4. i'm pretty sure the mismatch in names/IDs is making it so you can't mark them unapplied again
#

also, having an actual entry in mail with no text just actions will show up as phantom mail in the player's inbox

pine lark
#

Maybe she's mixing up local mail and global mail. I did that.

# brave fable so for example if you wanted a vegetable running across the screen you might use...

in response to this from earlier, i've attempted with the line in the screenshot, but something definitely is not right because nothing loads in or shows up on screen... hehe. i am wondering what i need to change^ from what asesprite told me about the pixel coords, the rabbit running animation, in the very top left corner, is coords 128 160, and it is a 16x16 sprite. i have an entry for each of the 17 required fields according to the wiki

27637788-AF64-4A1F-BF22-057B57232014.png
#

it's the first wip so def needs tweaking, just wondering what i need to do to be able to see the sprite and tweak from there

urban patrol
#

are you getting an error? i think you have to take motion out

stark ocean
#

i am getting no error & i was wondering why i didn't

#

the wiki i think requires motion to be in front of the pixel values?

brave fable
#

could you please paste the text rather than a long thin screenshot SDVdemetriums

stark ocean
#

oops yes sorry

#

temporaryAnimatedSprite TileSheets\critters 128 160 16 16 600 5 999 32 10 false true 0 0 0 0 0 0 motion -10 0

urban patrol
#

oh you're right it does need motion i forgot pathos changed the format of the wiki

stark ocean
#

there's two slashes behind TileSheets btw, idk why it pasted without the second one

urban patrol
#

you need to wrap it in `

#

oh your sort tile y is 0

brave fable
#

a couple of issues here, firstly you need to set the sort tile Y field to equal your tile Y field value (10), and you also need to set the scale field to 1

urban patrol
#

it needs to be higher, right now it's hidden underneath the back layer

brave fable
#

temporaryAnimatedSprite TileSheets\critters 128 160 16 16 600 5 999 32 10 false true 10 0 1 0 0 0 motion -10 0

#

it's not hidden beneath back since sprites are drawn later, but it will affect layering with other features

#

instead with scale 0 you're setting the sprite size to (16x16)x4x0 = 0x0

urban patrol
#

oh i thought sort tile y was the depth, i always set mine to like 7+. but yes blueberry is right about your issue

brave fable
#

you'd use a higher or lower sort tile Y value if you wanted to draw above/below other layers (like Buildings and Front) or other sprites

#

note that in 1.6.15 sort tile Y can be a decimal (non-whole) number, but tile and scale have to be whole numbers

stark ocean
#

ahh okay! i wasn't certain on the scale so i just threw something random, aka 0. i figured it was something off about one of those lellll

brave fable
#

the wiki wording for scale is a little confusing:

A multiplier applied to the sprite size (in addition to the normal 4× pixel zoom).
'in addition to' 💫

#

i'd update the wiki but the whole event command is being updated for 1.6.16

#

but yeah scale is applied as (size x 4 x scale), not (size x (4 + scale))

stark ocean
#

rahhh just replayed the event but nothing shows up still SDVpufferwaaah

brave fable
#

unfortunately i have disallowed perfection runs with qol mods. you can apply for a permit for $20

#

(yes, the game doesn't know if you're using mods, and it will not block you from perfection)

stark ocean
#

it wouldn't be because of the pixel coords, would it? my cursor is in the very top left of the first rabbit frame, and on the bottom of the screenshot the pixel coords appear to be 128 160. would those coords work for the game to draw from them?

#

CP authors have to worry about it much less but they still do have to (if they want)

brave fable
#

see above, ensuring that select world-changing features such as an npc changing their appearance should use the host player when tracking progress to ensure parity between all multiplayer farmhands

#

otherwise each farmhand ends up having a 'truth'/'worldview' different to one another

vocal knoll
lucid mulch
#

It's not hard to make a CP mod break in multiplayer if they use Save dependent tokens when defining locations and character definitions

#

as the CP flow when host creates/loads a save, and the CP flow when a farmhand joins a server are subtly different and tokens are available at different times which result in locations/npcs not being created

Hello gamers, I am coming once again in need of a bit of assistance woopsSweat.

Trying to understand how to code custom furniture into Stardew, I think I have a general understanding of it, but I've been struggling with getting the textures to work properly? Theres no red lines or anything on SMAPI's side of things; any help would be greatly appreciated ;-;

For context as well, I feel like it's like...1 or maybe 2 things that may be causing it to just not wanna work, because as Im fiddling with the code Ill either get the black box with a little bit of wood on it, or, Ill end up getting the red x icon for failing texture loading

JSON is a standard format for machine-readable text files that's used by Stardew Valley mods.

If you need help with a JSON file, you can upload it to smapi.io/json to see automatic validation and share the link here.

When making mods, it's recommended to edit your files in a text editor with JSON support, such as VS Code, Notepad++, or Sublime Text. These programs will check for syntax errors.

To use this command, type !json.

i'm not sure about DayOfMonth {{Range: 1, 7}}, i feel like the commas that CP inserts in a range token will break it

fierce vault
tribal heath
#

sob

fierce vault
#

I'll definitely test it though

#

and report back

uncut viper
brave fable
#

herein lies the problem

"{{Range: 6, 14}}" // equivalent to "6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14
compared to
DayOfMonth <number>+
which typically means space-separated, not comma-space-separated

uncut viper
#

i.e. it'll become DayOfMonth 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 when it should be DayOfMonth 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

fierce vault
#

so just using 1 2 3 etc. to specify the days is the better way then? As long as it works, I guess I don't care

brave fable
#

it's fine to just write DayOfMonth 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 though

fierce vault

#

otherwise it's valid to use Range when evaluating CP conditions, rather than SDV event preconditions

what layer is the ocean overlay drawn on? over all the Backs but under Buildings, correct? what layer(s) are NPCs drawn on?

fierce vault

(related) all these errors I've had made my npc spawn with half his sprite in the ground and a shadow which I had gotten rid of 😅

brave fable
#

the Water tile property overlay is drawn above Back, barely

urban patrol
#

ok cool thanks. i'll probably have to make this mermaid a map tile for my event then

brave fable
#

buildings, objects, characters, etc aren't tile-based and so aren't exactly on layers, but if their tile Y coordinate is the same it should be back > buildings > instance > front

urban patrol
#

are their tops and bottoms drawn differently from each other?

#

that's basically what i'm concerned about

brave fable
#

nope, not at all, sprites are drawn whole (and i think farmer sprites get their own spritebatch call to ensure it's in one piece)

#

again, not tile-based

urban patrol
#

inch resting ok

brave fable
#

consider that the entire back is drawn at once on the same layer, and then (everything else) like buildings tiles, critters, animals, characters, items, front tiles, shadows, each with its own layer value related to its Y position (and some other tiebreakers like X position, or arbitrary layering additions for specific instances), and it's then all arranged and sorted out before drawing

#

the reason you might see half a character clipping through some badly layered Front tiles isn't because the character is drawn in two, it's that the Front layer tiles are each drawn based on their tile position with their natural added offset for being Front tiles

#

not the simplest concept and i've not tried explaining it before

urban patrol
#

so something at 1,1 is always sorted "beneath" something at 1,4?

brave fable
#

depends on the something. AlwaysFront tile? false. flying bird critter? false. temporary sprite with sort tile Y set to 1,104? false

urban patrol
brave fable
#

if both are the same type of Something, like both Front tiles or both farm buildings, then true
.. unless for example the farm building has some DrawLayers with SortTileOffset set to a value greater than the distance between the two buildings. then false lol

depending on what you need, you could fake it by making them invisible and then making them a map tile or something

then they should be there when the event ends

fierce vault

#

I'll have to add more to it

afaik events have zero impact on NPC schedules, unless it's you making them invisible. and even then, i think they still go about their schedule for the rest of the day, just invisibly

make mod where bacon

fierce vault
#

I have a "UnlockConditions": "PLAYER_HAS_SEEN_EVENT parcy.jack_intro true", so maybe that's making something wacky? Not sure why it would though

urban patrol
#

oh if they're not unlocked then yeah that's probably why. idk when that gets looked at but my guess is at the beginning of each day

#

you could try SpawnIfMissing: true but even still if that's not evaluated after the event then you're SOL

tribal heath
#

2 moderator with chicken

urban patrol
#

although you could again fake it by changing map tiles in the event and then having them spawn the next day

fierce vault

Hmm, that might be an option if nothing else works. I have the npc hidden until met on the calendar as well though, so it might look a little wonky from the player's perspective. I'll have to work on this more later.

Thanks Nic SDVpufferheart

oh, just a side note since I was about to leave, but I checked the next day and he's still not there, so something else might be the problem 🫠

!tilesheetclimbing

ocean sailBOT
#

When creating or editing maps in Tiled, one common error is tilesheet climbing, marked by red text containing "invalid tilesheet path '../../..'. This is caused by SMAPI not being able to find the tilesheets needed by the map file. To prevent this error, make sure that you have a copy of all necessary tilesheets in the folder containing your WIP tmx file. Copies of vanilla tilesheets can later be deleted, but must be present while working on your map.

If you get this error with a completed map, an easy way to fix it is to open your tmx file in VS Code or a similar text editor, find all of the places with <image source=, and remove the filepaths to so that only the tilesheet names remain. For example, if the code says <image source="Content (unpacked)/Maps/townInterior_2" width="512" height="64"/>, change it to just <image source="townInterior_2" width="512" height="64"/>.

To use this command, type !tilesheetclimbing.

You can use the Tilesheetinator tiled extension to create Stardew Valley maps that work in-game without having to copy vanilla and modded tilesheets back-and-forth, rename files with a . in front of their name, edit maps only in the unpacked content folder or make symlink workarounds.

See the mod page for full installation and use instructions.

I'm adding in a new crab pot item and I'm trying to make it only catchable in ponds, not rivers. I added it to Data/Fish with the location "pond" and also edited Data/Locations for a few maps, changing FishAreas to add "freshwater" and "pond" as the crab pot fish types. Is there anything else I would need to do?

#

The wiki just says this:

The vanilla values are freshwater or ocean; mods may add their own region.

#

That's on the page about Data/Fish

i have the sprite patched on a time based rule, and the new sprite does exist in my assets, so im thinking the game is constructing these wild trees and using day time sprites as reference

more or less same with the shared code library i'm working on, but my mods are in various (disaster) states of actually using it at this point so i figured i should just explain it instead of linking my terrible current examples

#

a lot of my mods dont even have the LogDebug thing bc i add that later

urban patrol
#

@gentle rose i have a niche tilesheetinator scope creep request, now that we can easily use vanilla assets outside of the maps folder: when adding objects to the map from spring objects, could it automatically add a shadow beneath them? if this isn't possible then it's not too hard to do manually, no worries

torpid sparrow
#

If i add a special order by an event, will it just automatically start? Or will it be added to the board immediately

I made my log helper class I've been using entirely because I find typing Log.Debug or Log.Warn to be better than inputting a log level parameter. also so I can safely pass null in and also see what type something is

but anyway this is what i was talking about last night, where i don't think unlock conditions will be evaluated immediately after the event ends

i'm not sure when it's checked but i would guess at the beginning of the day

#

I slept the day away though

urban patrol
#

hmm okay then

#

I'll run the event again through debug

urban patrol
#

it says you've seen the event, assuming it's parcy.mrNPC.intro.part1

it's parcy.jack_Jack before this event

Oh, that must be a remnant from my other mod

I removed it to test this one

let me find the other's event id

fierce vault
#

well, I replayed it then slept...

#

oh, wait, does this need a : between it and true? "UnlockConditions": "PLAYER_HAS_SEEN_EVENT parcy.jack_intro true",

brave fable
#

it doesn't need a true at all

fierce vault
#

oh

urban patrol
#

no, but i'm pretty sure you need to specify a player like i said last night

fierce vault
#

I forgot that, sorry

uncut viper
#

Player before the event ID, and the true can be removed

urban patrol
#

PLAYER_HAS_SEEN_EVENT <player> <id>+

brave fable
#

UnlockConditions is a game state query, which will always resolve to either true or false, and GSQ evaluations will always check for a result of true (unless negated with !)

So, I guess it should be the host. I'll try that!

#

He's showing now! Thank you! I'm going to start another test save to try it again

#

Alright, so Nic was correct. It will take a day for him start his schedule, even though it's in the same spot. I'm sure there'll be a solution though. Thanks again!

calm nebula
#

You dont have to gate his schedule behind a when command

#

If he is not there he woll not scheduled

fierce vault
#

I don't currently have it behind a when though, unless you mean locking the entire npc behind an event

#

this is all I'm using "UnlockConditions": "PLAYER_HAS_SEEN_EVENT Any parcy.jack_intro",

calm nebula
#

Hmm, I'm surprised the schedule takes a day theb

fierce vault
#

Yeah, idk why. I think I may have to change the update rate for him showing. I'm not sure I want to go with a map edit trick.

urban patrol
#

his schedule is always "stand at this spot"

fierce vault
#

I wonder if just locking his schedule behind a when condition instead of the whole npc would change anything...? Probably not

uncut viper
#

Wait what do you mean instead of the whole NPC

fierce vault
#

I meant that the npc has an unlock condition attached, sorry, I worded it unclearly 😅

uncut viper
#

With a When condition?

fierce vault
#

No

uncut viper
#

Like in addition to- ok

#

Never mind then

fierce vault
#

Everyone thinks I'm misusing when conditions right now lol

uncut viper
#

It was that and the comment about the "update rate for him showing" that made me think it

fierce vault
#

I'll be honest, I'm thinking about trying one instead of an unlock condition though. Without sharing too many details, he has to be at the same spot after the event, and being able to chat with him would be ideal.

#

That's why I'm iffy on faking it with a map edit

uncut viper
#

When conditions on NPCs are generally ill-advised.

#

Especially if the condition relies on data only available once a save is loaded. Pretty sure that case just always leads to errors or warnings in the log. Doubly so in multiplayer.

fierce vault
#

Well, I guess it's unfortunate my idea really needs him to be locked behind an event then. Why does the stuff I want always need to be so complicated 😔

#

It'll all make sense when I release him though, I promise!

#

I know the mod might be sounding kind of weird with the stuff I'm doing behind the scenes right now

#

When you say "When" conditions on NPCs are generally ill-advised though, you are also refering to doing something like only locking his schedule behind one right?

#

I assume it would be the same thing because the schedule also spawns the npc, right?

uncut viper
#

It'd probably also lead to issues, but I'm not as confident in saying that vs the Data/Characters part.

#

The schedule doesn't spawn the NPC

fierce vault
#

Oh, I guess he's still show if his default home is in the same spot then

#

If I could change that to the void though....

lucid mulch
#

Characters and locations should always be available at all times using no save dependent tokens

#

If you want an NPC to not exist until something happens use it's spawn condition field

fierce vault
#

Oh... that doesn't mean my that my other npc which has a location patch using a when condition is also going to break stuff, would it?

uncut viper
#

There is no reason for a Location to not exist

#

You remove the access to the Location conditionally, not the Location itself.

lucid mulch
#

You can edit the data/locations definition with extra stuff, but the base location should always exist

fierce vault
#

Ok. I'm not adding any new locations in this current mod anyway

Then make your edits on that

glossy plinth
#

My favorite are the ones that require a specific set of like 5 circumstances including trying to summon an Old One that you as the author would never even imagine trying but apparently half the users of your mod do.

It's not like you can just scream "Stop having tea with Cthulhu" at them, so instead you must make sure that the player has some sandwiches to go with it.

its what cp does under the hood for you

alright, thanks, that's good to know

by any chances you know how I could make an editimage patch using an asset I loaded with the load action? like, instead of having to use the file path

#

You cannot.

nimble marlin
#

dang it

#

well, thanks for letting me know

#

appreciate the help!

urban patrol
#

you could however use the BaseTexture field in world map data instead of EditImage

#

EditImage would apply after you do that

nimble marlin
lucid mulch
#

tbh I despise that editing LooseSprites/map is still done.
it isn't needed

#

there is a Textures list in the worldmap data model that will have vanilla do the overlays for you where you can have GSQ conditions for when it should be done

urban patrol
#

i think people just don’t know it’s an option

#

like how they don’t know about NPC appearances and do EditImage with conditions instead

#

i suppose i could make a tutorial on it, but i don’t really have a solid grasp on it myself

When I last did my scan through the mod dump, I found zero mods that actually used the Textures field for the valley world map

When using a SetNpcInvisible <NPC name> <day duration> does the day duration have to be specified, and if it does, would 999 be the max if I want it to be indefinite until an event is seen?

  1. yes, <> means required
  2. i wouldn't bank on 999 being forcefully ended when the event is seen, it might accidentally make them invisible forever, but i don't personally know
