[verbal glacier]

the game kind of just reads the strings/animationDescriptions and doesn't need you to put animation dialogue

[strong kite]

Is there a way I could add a burning particle effect to the player while they have a certain buff/debuff? (More specifically, a modified version of an existing vanilla debuff)

[ornate drift]

ah

[verbal glacier]

strings/animationDescriptions"alex_lift_weights": "Unghh... Can't talk.$6", . In the schedule 1300 JoshHouse 14 5 2 alex_lift_weights

[ornate drift]

so anytime i use that animation, it just automatically uses the text too?

[verbal glacier]

yup

this allows for more freedom I find

[ornate drift]

tysm

[verbal glacier]

No problem

[ornate drift]

is there a way i can add specific dialogue for when Manny is inside a specific building and will only trigger that dialogue until he leaves the building

[verbal glacier]

you would do something like /1300 MannyBakery 16 16 2 \"Strings\\schedules\\Manny:MannyCook\"/ and then you would have him go to his next schedule point, he'll stop saying that line regardless of if he left the building or not

[ornate drift]

er

[verbal glacier]

{
"Name": "IsOddYear",
"Value": "{{Query: {{Year}} % 2 = 1}}"
},
this is what i found in another mod, a dynamic token

[torpid sparrow]

woah my first dynamic token

i need to go look at how to set it u p

[hard fern]

have u never dynamic token'd before

[torpid sparrow]

norp

i make do without

[strong kite]

actually, now I'm running into an issue where using "CustomFields" within Buffs so HealthRegeneration from SpaceCore works makes it so only 1 buff gets applied with the effects of both (or 1 doubled?) rather than the 1 buff and 1 debuff that was happening before (and is intended)

[hard fern]

wow how have u lived wem... dynamic tokenless

well now that i know how to use them im not going back lol

[verbal glacier]

https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/develop/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/tokens.md#dynamic-tokens

[torpid sparrow]

oh wait dsv literally has that

lol

oddyear token and such

[verbal glacier]

oh lol

[ornate drift]

?????????? how have you even

wh AT

[verbal glacier]

wem magic i guess

[ornate drift]

wem have you not used tokens 😭

goddamn

[torpid sparrow]

not dynamic tokens

[ornate drift]

insane

[strong kite]

real quick is there a way to make smaller code blocks in discord? I don't want to suddenly flood this channel by posting examples

[hard fern]

!json

[ocean sail]

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.

[ornate drift]

validator - errors - send log via link

[ornate drift]

i want him to basically do it like how Shane does it when he's at his lab

[verbal glacier]

shane at lab? you mean joja?

[strong kite]

Well it's not that i need to send an entire log or anything, just one segment of code that's functioning weirdly with 3 variations that are doing 3 different things

[verbal glacier]

the smapi.io/json is for your .jsons not the entire error log

[uncut viper]

If it's longer than a handful of lines, please use the json validator to share it.

[ornate drift]

oh wait thats new

i was searching through shanes dialogue for the example

isnt it usually #$b# or #b#?

[torpid sparrow]

so is this true/false

[hard fern]

#$b#

it's not #b#

[ornate drift]

why is there an e

[hard fern]

new text box

[ornate drift]

oh

[strong kite]

Alright. It's like 20 lines, but i originally thought I'd have to send it 3 times to get the point across but I can probably cut it down

[hard fern]

they're different commandss

well specifically

[strong kite]

Also tbh I don't know what you all mean by Json Validator. Is that another program I should already have?

[hard fern]

#$e# stops the dialogue, and you have to talk to the npc again to see the rest of it

while #$b# just progresses the dialogue to the next box

[ornate drift]

oh i see

[verbal glacier]

for this they put "When": { "IsOddYear": true } to check for true for stuff like festivals

[torpid sparrow]

ok yas i did that

testing time

[ornate drift]

wait but i use #b# it works perfectly fine

[verbal glacier]

hope it works (I haven't tried this myself)

[hard fern]

huh???

[ornate drift]

yeah

[hard fern]

are you sure the dialogue isn't just skipping

[ornate drift]

if i use #$b# it keeps going
if i use #b# it stops and i have to talk to it again

[torpid sparrow]

woo it worked

[uncut viper]

#b# will not do anything. It's not being parsed as a command.

[hard fern]

pretty sure that's because it can't p-

[verbal glacier]

welcome to dynamic tokens wem

[hard fern]

what button said

[ornate drift]

whats parsing?

[verbal glacier]

checked

[uncut viper]

Reading as, interpreted, checked, etc

The game is not treating it like a command.

[ornate drift]

ah

[verbal glacier]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Dialogue#Dialogue_commands here's the section on dialogue commands

[hard fern]

kinda sad we have no tofu 😔

i kinda wanted mabo tofu and was going to satiate my needs by making it in stardew....

[brittle pasture]

cornucopia

[hard fern]

i think that dish would already be in cornucopia

[verbal glacier]

they have mapo tofu

[hard fern]

i should have that for dinner 🤔

[ornate locust]

this room appears to be in the basement, like the furnace, so it gets a ramp. I tried the half and half thing and didn't really like how it looked with the tiles I have on hand

and... the image didn't send one sec

[hard fern]

sorry i ate the image

[ornate locust]

I had to scooch the desk over too. I'll need variants for the CC mod and SVE on this one, but it's not too bad

[strong kite]

So basically, this code right here gives me 1 buff icon with all of the intended effects. It uses the icon as directed in the second buff, but uses the name of BuffId 12, which is Burnt. And it uses the duration described in the second buff.

                        {
                            "BuffId": 12,
                            "Duration": 250,
                            "CustomFields": {
                                "spacechase0.SpaceCore/HealthRegeneration": -0.5,
                            },
                        },
                    {
                        "Duration": 350,
                        "IconTexture": "{{InternalAssetKey: assets/bufficons.png}}",
                        "IconSpriteIndex": 2,
                        "CustomAttributes": {
                            "LuckLevel": 7,
                            "CriticalChanceMultiplier": 3,
                            "CriticalPowerMultiplier": 5,
                            "MagneticRadius": 96,```
However, if I try flipping the two so the first buff comes after the second one, it just applies a doubled version of the Burnt debuff.
Before, I had the first buff using "CustomAttributes" instead of "CustomFields", which didn't work for the Health Regeneration code from SpaceCore, but it *DID* apply the two buffs individually, which is what I want

[ornate locust]

I made it a bit longer than the stairs were, too

[hard fern]

🤔 a curious thought: with the implementation of ramps, does that imply the overall elevation of areas in sdv are lower than in vanilla? since ramps can't be as steep as stairs in order for people to still use them

[ornate locust]

it implies CA is only giving me so much to work with re: perspective, scale, and elevation

:V

Only thing I can think of as an alternative is like... stair lifts?

[hard fern]

i like to imagine the ground shuffles itself downwards to accommodate a ramp

npcs are hard.

how do people make them...

[ornate locust]

many tiny elevators... Alex picking up George over his head again

[hard fern]

george makes a decent enough weight i guess

[ornate locust]

Really powerful arms on Geroge

[strong kite]

Is there something I'm missing that makes this code suddenly only 1 combined buff?

[ornate drift]

wait i feel embarrassed i MEANT DEMETRIUS

he has a line he constantlyy repeats once he sits there

also Gus has it too whenever you talk to him at his saloon

[hard fern]

crying how does one confuse shane and demetrius

[ornate drift]

monkey thinking image

[verbal glacier]

"demetrius_dance": "%Demetrius is busy.",
"demetrius_read": "We're insulated from the rest of the world here in Stardew Valley. Maybe that's a good thing.",

one of these?

[ornate drift]

read

yes

[verbal glacier]

that is strings/animationDescriptions

[ornate drift]

yeah but he has a portrait visible there

[hard fern]

its part of his schedule string, i think?

[ornate locust]

Here's a half ramp one

[hard fern]

ooh

neat

[ornate locust]

I think I used the 1.6 shadows tilesheet to make it better than the first attempt

[verbal glacier]

"rain": "750 ScienceHouse 16 19 2 demetrius_read/1100 ScienceHouse 22 20 1 demetrius_notes/1500 ScienceHouse 7 18 1/1540 ScienceHouse 22 20 1/1800 ScienceHouse 27 9 0/1920 ScienceHouse 28 9 0/2000 ScienceHouse 15 4 0/2200 ScienceHouse 19 4 11 demetrius_sleep", so here he would be saying that line on repeat

[hard fern]

honestly the reason i havent made any npcs in a wheelchair is because pelican town fucking sucks to navigate

[ornate drift]

also he has an animation
gus doesnt have an animation and he still repeats it

[torpid sparrow]

i got fucking jumped by the new beta mod upload when trying to upload a new file

that SUCKED

[hard fern]

you don't need an animation to have a schedule string 🤔

scuked

[torpid sparrow]

never do that again nexus

[ornate locust]

a thing that makes me not quite like the half one is that people are liable to just walk straight down the middle

[verbal glacier]

that is strings/schedule/gus

[ornate drift]

ah

[ornate locust]

but maybe that doesn't matter so much

[hard fern]

once you're done ramping up the town (get it), would it be okay to use your mod as a dependency?

[ornate locust]

Absolutely!

[ornate drift]

yknow what im gonna cheat and make an animationdescription for him just standing

[ornate locust]

anyone can use it as a dependency for the railings or a requirement for a mobility-impaired NPC

[verbal glacier]

one is basically for each time you play that specific animation, that can be standing yes, and the other is more context specific

[hard fern]

now the big problem of "where would I even put this npc" remains

[ornate drift]

cant i just put "Hospital": in dialogue

for whenever hes in the hospital

[ornate locust]

Also let me know if there's missed places you want me to ramp up. As a general thing, I was just putting ramps where people could get to public buildings and such

[verbal glacier]

hospital in strings, this is for Alex. 1030 Hospital 15 15 3 alex_sit_left \"Strings\\schedules\\Alex:summer_16.000\" Here alex also has a sitting animation but a schedule string because it is more about where he is, not that he sitting per se

[ornate drift]

hm

[void aspen]

Something like that?

it can remove or replace pixel with something

[verbal glacier]

his strings/schedules/alex would then be "summer_16.000": "Hi. Eh, I just twisted my ankle. Seeing if I can get it taped.",

[near imp]

i think i need to download that program then

[void aspen]

I just found this node there im going insane

theres way too much stuff to do and it helps a lot for general use and some aseprite/sdv shenanigans

[void aspen]

its not that pricy but id suggest wishlisting and waiting for it to go on sale (which it does quite a lot)

Question, I've used random numbers in my content patcher before (like {{Random:1,2,3,4,5}}), but I want to be able to use a random number (or string) in an event, and then use that as a content patcher condition, which I'm not sure how to do. Basically I want to have a passive festival that makes some onLocationChange patches based on which random version of the event occurs

[jaunty shuttle]

yoink
-# I already know this is gonna break my brain and I shall hate myself… but it’s too late now >:D

[ornate locust]

Ideally I would do a half ramp like this. The railing in the middle prevents any NPC from walking on the border which would look weird. But I felt like for a player it maybe wasn't that accessible because it shoves you to either side.

[strong kite]

alright I'm gonna try and simplify my problem cuz I am definitely overcomplicating it lmao.
How can I get my food item to give 2 different buffs with one of them using SpaceCore's "CustomFields" field? Cuz doing it the intuitive way just winds up making the two buffs combine into one

[ornate locust]

Oh I might know something about that? https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/stable/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/tokens.md#randomization

The key can let you synchronize random tokens

[brittle pasture]

you can also assign a dynamic token and use it

[ornate drift]

wait where did THAT come from?

that icon has no reason to be there

[strong kite]

are they trying to bribe you to visit more often?

[ornate drift]

oh 😭

[ornate locust]

That'd do it

[ornate drift]

oh, part 2

[verbal glacier]

is that still in his schedule?

[ornate locust]

I think I'm just going to do full ramps everywhere. That would have the least chance of a NPC in a wheelchair ending up on stairs.

[ornate drift]

yyyyyyyyyyyyyeaaaaaahhhh i hsould probably remove it

[faint ingot]

OK that information is helpful thank you both... I think I will have to use something like mail flags and trigger actions as well to synhronize the random key for multiplayer?

[void aspen]

oh wow

[verbal glacier]

dun dun dun duuununununun, also sasha wtf

[void aspen]

living my best

[verbal glacier]

as you should

[void aspen]

im so glad pixel composer when from buggy undeveloped app with something id consider a must have tool for pixel shenanigans along the aseprite

[ornate drift]

didnt fix it unfortunately

[verbal glacier]

did you sleep/start a new save?

[ornate drift]

youre supposed to sleep?

[verbal glacier]

well that is best practice for making changes/modding

[hard fern]

schedules need a day to unfuck themselves

[jaunty shuttle]

Love the music lol. Also wow that’s so cool!!!

[verbal glacier]

but you would the dialogue in a separate patch, where you target strings/animationDescriptions

[ornate drift]

wdym

[verbal glacier]

"Action": "EditData",
            "Target": "Strings/animationDescriptions",
            "Entries": {
                    "Wem.Bundle.Tilly_squat": "{{i18n:Wem.Bundle.Tilly_squat}}",```

ok it jumped a bit, but this is from Tilly for example

[ornate drift]

yippee tilly

uhhh ill try figuring something out, maybe

[verbal glacier]

the animation happens in Data/animationDescriptions, the text happens in Strings/animationDescriptions

[void aspen]

yuss

[strong kite]

realizing I should probably figure out gift tastes now rather than later 😭

[ornate drift]

BRO

[hard fern]

yeah

[ornate drift]

but i put it on the lower bench tile :(

grrrrrrrr tbis game makes me MAD

[void aspen]

trial and trial

(and million of errors)

[ornate drift]

mmmmmm so how should i fix this

[strong kite]

I think I'll just need to take a break from this buff thing

[ornate drift]

do i move a tile lower?

[verbal glacier]

ye

[ornate locust]

Making NPCs be in the right spot on the map with animations is a lot of change pixel, check, etc

[strong kite]

Ohh right I'm remembering now when I was first making this mod I wanted to make an item that worked like Qi Spice. I think it ended up being something hardcoded in the game so I couldn't do it.
Now that I'm back to working on this mod I don't know what to do with this item 😭

[brittle pasture]

ah I think I remember that, something about a pokemon food spice

it will be a painful journey to implement that yourself yes

[strong kite]

Just double checking, there's zero way to make it work the exact same way as Qi Spice? Like basically a duplicate of the item with a different name, description, and texture

[brittle pasture]

nope

[old egret]

Hello helpful people. I am trying to display the Farmer sprite on the screen in a specific place and expression and I'm not making any headway. If I understand things correctly there are two approaches to displaying the Farmer player.FarmerSprite.draw() and spriteBatch.Draw(player.FarmerRenderer.baseTexture ...) Is there one approach that is more commonly used than the other?

[strong kite]

drat

maybe I'll just have the reason you would make it be that it's a loved gift for Gus

or maybe I'll remember to use it for other recipes

[calm nebula]

Question....have you unpacked the game

!unpack

[ocean sail]

Follow this guide to unpack the game's content files in order to see and explore how the game data is structured.
It's helpful when making your own mods, or just to learn about how the game works!

To use this command, type !unpack.

[old egret]

Yes.

[lucid iron]

what spritebatch did you try to use

[old egret]

b

[lucid iron]

that is not quite what i mean but i am guess you used the one given to IClickableMenu.draw ?

oh i just realized, you aren't calling the appropriate FarmerRenderer.draw

try doing that instead

[old egret]

This is working much better now, thank you!

[faint ingot]

This token seems to be able to select a different random value when the client is restarted, is there a way for it to be random but select the same option on restart as long as the in-game day hasn't changed? { "Name": "test_token", "Value": "{{Random:a,b,c,d,e,f,g |key=testkey}}" },

[uncut viper]

The random token is already seeded based on the in game day.

Specifically a combination of the save seed, in game day, and the input

[faint ingot]

OK that's what I thought which is why it surprised me when it changed. Is it because that part of my code didn't exist the previous day that it's changing then?

[fierce vault]

Chu, I like the brackets in your name lol

[faint ingot]

related note is there a debug command that will tell me the value of a token for testing purposes?

the only reason I know this one is because it's failing to load an include file with the name in it 😛

[urban patrol]

patch summary

[faint ingot]

OK I see it in there thank you

[valid folio]

Hi, I saw that there’s a prismatic slime egg in the game, but I can’t find it in the code to get its ID. I also checked websites that list the items and couldn’t find it there either. I know I could make my own, but if there’s already one, I’d rather use that.

[brittle pasture]

there is no prismatic slime egg item in vanilla

as for mods East Scarp adds one

when in doubt Lookup Anything + look at id

[valid folio]

So that was it, I was looking for it like an idiot haha. Thanks, Selph!

[valid folio]

Thanks for the tip!

[eager tree]

chu{e} would it be possible to add an animated light source texture with mushymato.MMAP_Light somehow?

as in make it look like it's flickering, like candle lights

[tawdry hazel]

guys am I doing something wrong I wanted to place a machine on a table (machine still working and animating etc)... does that only work with furniture framework (I'm saying that cos I remember doing something abt that on the documentation but that might be the voices in my head)

like I made a new machine and I can't place it on table and my game has so many mods I don't remember what's the normal behaviour of the game

and yes

I could just make the sprite have a table but I wanted to know if it's possible

[tiny zealot]

i'm quite sure vanilla does not allow you to place a machine/bigcraftable on a table

[tawdry hazel]

I figured :p I tested and it didn't work (I'm gonna see what I can figure out abt it)

thank you

[lucid iron]

Uh I'm not sure I'll get back to you lol

In the meantime you could try and see if spacecore animations would work on the light map

[uncut viper]

Can you spacecore animated texture the light texture

Yeah that

[lucid iron]

If it no work then ill look at doing something specific

[eager tree]

i'll try, ty ill comment here if it works

[latent mauve]

Hopefully you figured it out, but the farmer is 2 tiles high, so you want to be one lower than the bench seat, as the sitting animation is higher up in the frame.

[toxic topaz]

whats probably the most reliable method for moving this pantry bundle into the kitchen?

[uncut viper]

C#

Their positions are hardcoded to be added with C#

[toxic topaz]

alright ty, ill look into that

[toxic topaz]

is it based on getAreaBounds?

im quite confused on where the bundle locations are actually kept lol

[marsh reef]

Tiled, is there a way to bind wasd to move the selected tile up down and side to side while being able to place it and switch?

[primal garden]

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/273c871d071946308c518fff8ab390a6 does anyone know whats wrong

[verbal glacier]

you need to separate your load from the edit

[latent mauve]

You have a rogue "Action": "Load":{ in the middle of your entry

[verbal glacier]

"Action": "Load",
            "Target":```

[primal garden]

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/0db6a44970ec41679ede4914235f9874 what must I change

[verbal glacier]

you still haven't separated the "Action": "Load, it should be in its own {} outside of the editdata

and then you target your image

https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/develop/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/action-load.md

[primal garden]

sorry but what would it look separate

[verbal glacier]

look at the guide

it would be like that then , then your editdata patch

[primal garden]

"Action": "Load", but this is whats on the guide

[verbal glacier]

yeah but not inside of your editdata

[primal garden]

so where should I put it

[verbal glacier]

{
        "Action": "Load",
        "Target": "assets/BloxyCola.png"
},
{
            "Action": "EditData",
            "Target": "Data/Objects",
            "Entries": {
            "{AngelWhatEver.Roblox_Cola}Cola_BloxyCola": {
                    "Name": "{{ModId}} BloxyCola",
                    "Displayname": "Bloxy Cola",
                    "Description": "Warning: Bloxy Cola may be habit-forming.",
                    "Type": "Trash",
                    "Category": -20,
                    "Price": 100,
                    "Texture": "{{ModId}}/ObjectTexture/BloxyCola.png"},
                    "SpriteIndex": 0
                }
            }
        },```

[primal garden]

tysm

which line would I put this tho

[verbal glacier]

I’m not sure what you mean?

[primal garden]

like which line in the json would this go

?

[verbal glacier]

It doesn’t really matter, I tend to put it above the editdata, it just has to be separate because you are doing two different things with load and editdata

[primal garden]

tysm

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/6365631903c541b2982a5735471cdcb0 what must I change in line 4

[verbal glacier]

that was mb

"Action": "Load",
"Target": "Mods/BloxyCola",
"FromFile": "assets/BloxyCola.png"
}```

also feel free to look at other mods' code to see how they do stuff like this, it can help you see what they do and what you might be missing

[primal garden]

Idk where to find a good example tho

[verbal glacier]

stardew valley expanded

or any mod that is doing something similar to yours

[unreal spoke]

If you’re just starting out, I really wouldn’t recommend a mod as big as SVE as reference material. Better to take a look at something smaller and easier to get an overview of.

[verbal glacier]

Fair, I just mentioned it cause it has a variety of edits that helped me personally

[unreal spoke]

Yeah, that’s fair, but finding the relevant bit in its files is a challenge on its own.

[verbal glacier]

true :P

[ornate drift]

yippee

speaking of which, maybe i should add birthday text

does it go in gifttastes?

[verbal glacier]

Do you mean for when he receives gifts? That's in dialogue with the key AcceptBirthdayGift_(Id) otherwise you can just use the season_day key for his actual birthday

[primal garden]

I did make a few mods but I wanted to make a mod that adds something new instead of replacing something

[ornate drift]

oh i see

wait why id? its either positive or negative there

[hard fern]

id is the item id

or

wait

huh

im tired

[verbal glacier]

it can be an object id like AcceptBirthdayGift_(O)797 which would be for the pearl, it can be an item tag or taste, or positve/negative reaction

AcceptBirthdayGift_ just put that before it

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Dialogue#Item_dialogue

[ornate drift]

alrighty thanks

[verbal glacier]

[orchid glade]

If I want users to be able to set the price of an object in config, is there a way to force them to enter a numeric value, or to check they have entered a numeric value, before I use their input as a token?

All I can think of is a query for if {{price}} > 0, but I note that the author guide specifically mentions the lack of data validation for using query.

[verbal glacier]

I think you can use AllowValues and then list the specific prices you want them to use/choose from

[orchid glade]

That's a fall back if I can't allow a full range without breaking things if people enter wrong.

I started with that, but - how many options do I put and what min/max?

Trying to avoid that sort of executive decision I guess heh.

[verbal glacier]

So far all I can see in other mods is long lists of numbers, I think it depends on where you want something to fall in terms of price

[orchid glade]

Bleh, fine! (lol okay okay if it's usual practice I'll go that way too). Thanks for the input. I guess data validation is one of those features that I assume is possible so I'm always gonna look for that possibility!

[verbal glacier]

Hope it works out for you

[orchid glade]

"AllowValues":"0, 1000, 5000, 10000, 20000, 50000, 100000, 1000000"

tada lol

[primal garden]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/30800?tab=description I was looking at this mod but this one adds stuff completely differently

[verbal glacier]

so far, the only thing I can see that they do different is put their editdata into its own .json

[hard fern]

it would still all be doing the same thing

just looks a bit different

the way i add items might scare someone

[primal garden]

idk what im doing wrong but my item is still not loading its png https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/f811040b38bf493e851388cf0b8fabce

[verbal glacier]

what did you call your image? and is it in a folder called assets?

[primal garden]

BloxyCola.png

[orchid glade]

The Texture needs to be the asset you loaded to

ie your load target, not your load fromfile

[verbal glacier]

so Mods/BloxyCola

[orchid glade]

I would recommend Mods/{{ModId}}/BloxyCola

Or just {{ModId}}/BloxyCola

[primal garden]

but its in the assets folder

[verbal glacier]

that is covered by your fromfile

[orchid glade]

Use {{ModId}}/BoxyCola as the target (the in-game asset you are creating), and the FromFile is assets/BoxyCola.png, because that tells it where in your mod files to get the asset from.

Then the Texture in the EditData, tells the game which in-game asset (that you loaded earlier) it should use for the object.

I have to say, bold choice adding it as a universal like

[primal garden]

why what would you recommend?

[long jungle]

Anyone know the format for a "When:" condition that detects if the player has a certain profession?

When you lose the option to use GSQ "Condition":, I swear you'd appreciate it so much

[verbal glacier]

   "HasProfession |contains=Blacksmith, Gemologist": "false"
}```

[long jungle]

Thank you!

[verbal glacier]

thank pathos :P

[long jungle]

I was about to use the number ids for the GSQ Conditions lol

So I just gotta use the actual names, yeah?

[verbal glacier]

apparently

[long jungle]

Thankies!

[verbal glacier]

https://github.com/Pathoschild/StardewMods/blob/develop/ContentPatcher/docs/author-guide/tokens.md#player here they are :D

[long jungle]

I'm gonna finally buff the long-useless Defender Profession

That's gotta be the most unpicked combat profession

[royal rover]

If I want to prevent the clock from pausing when menus are open, do I need to use Harmony to override the "shouldTimePass" method, or is there a simpler way? I noticed that method specifically checks for "overlayMenu != null" and "activeClickableMenu != null" without any override boolean.

[primal garden]

must I put png at the end?

[verbal glacier]

for your target no

[primal garden]

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/6dcd95bb8e25441082335b719585b590
it still isnt working?

[nova gale]

Anything in there for multiplayer? Pretty sure that forces time to keep passing, ya?

[verbal glacier]

"Action": "Load",
"Target": "Mods/{{ModId}}/BloxyCola",
"FromFile": "assets/BloxyCola.png"
}```

[nova gale]

From the root of your mod's directory, do you have a directory called Mods inside it?

FromFile": "Mods/{{ModId}}/BloxyCola.png"

That's a very unlikely path to your file

[royal rover]

The check for multiplayer is inside the function. I guess I could set "IsMultiplayer" to true, but I feel like that would probably have unintended consequences.

[primal garden]

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/ae38800fc0094bb0aefc4bae73f879b8 it still isnt working?

[royal rover]

So far, I'm looking at doing a postfix like this, and just removing the checks for menus:

        internal static void ShouldTimePass_Postfix(bool ignore_multiplayer, ref bool __result)
        {
            if (__result) return;
            if (Game1.isFestival()) return;
            if (Game1.CurrentEvent != null && Game1.CurrentEvent.isWedding) return;
            if (Game1.farmEvent != null) return;
            if (Game1.IsMultiplayer && !ignore_multiplayer) return;
            if (Game1.paused || Game1.freezeControls || Game1.overlayMenu != null || Game1.isTimePaused) return;
            if (Game1.eventUp) return;
            if (Game1.activeClickableMenu != null && !(Game1.activeClickableMenu is BobberBar)) return;
            if (!Game1.player.CanMove && !Game1.player.UsingTool) return;
            __result = true;
            return;
        }

[verbal glacier]

you still have .png in your texture in the editdata

[primal garden]

it does work now tysm

its also hated by all the town

is it bc it's trash

[verbal glacier]

no problem, and you can indicate npc specific gift taste (which should deviate from the fact that it is trash)

[primal garden]

Yeah I dont think its a good idea for a universal like

[verbal glacier]

it's not bad, but it is more fun to make character specific reactions some might love it, others might not

[merry river]

Can I use a flavored item as a completion requirement for a delivery quest? The field only allows item IDs iirc

[nova gale]

do you mean you want to allow strawverry wine specifically instead of wine generally?

as the condition?

[merry river]

yes!

[nova gale]

hrmmm

[merry river]

in that case, it's a custom flavored object though

[verbal glacier]

I believe with special orders you can indicate AcceptedContextTags for its delivery variant

[nova gale]

do specific flavored varients get specific context tags? or are you suggesting if the flavored item were unique or that they patch the machine to add a tag?

[merry river]

they get context tags such as "Preserve_sheet_index_<itemID>"

[nova gale]

ah, might work then, although that might mean it accepts anything flavored with that base item

ah, you can list multiple and give it an and condition

so it has to have both the strawberry preserve id as well as be wine

I should add some special orders to dwarven expansion, it's one of the areas I haven't fiddled with yet

[primal garden]

https://smapi.io/json/content-patcher/fc8f57d132ef4f9bbd875efeed83edda why does pam still hate it?

[nova gale]

add "Delimiter": " " below the value

(seperated with a comma)

also: you should probably not have spaces in your item name like that

err, not the item name, sorry

instead of {{ModId}} BloxyCola that should be your item id

although your item id is a bit weird

do you have a variable called AngelWhatEver.Roblox_Cola? If so I think you need 2 { around it, not one to make it replace correctly

[primal garden]

must I put 2 of these { on what I want the item id to be

[nova gale]

"{{ModId}}_Food_FriedBatWings": {
                    "Name": "Fried Bat Wings",
                    "DisplayName": "{{i18n:Food_FriedBatWings.DisplayName}}",
}

Then in the likes/dislikes you'd have:

{
                    "Operation": "Append",
                    "Target": [
                        "Fields",
                        "Dwarf",
                        1
                    ],
                    "Value": "{{ModId}}_Food_FriedBatWings",
                    "Delimiter": " "
                },

[primal garden]

"{{AngelWhatEver.Roblox_Cola}}_BloxyCola" is this a better entry

[merry river]

Oh, it's not a special order I'm working with though

[nova gale]

if you have a dynamic token called "AngelWhatever.Roblox_Cola" yes

if that is your mod id that you've stored in a value called ModId (like you have below in the name) then you'd do {{ModId}}_BloxyCola

[verbal glacier]

May I ask why not? Cause I believe special orders allow for more flexibility

[merry river]

I don't want the quest to be able to picked up from a randomized board entry. Unless there's a way to add the special order to the quest log by skipping that step?

[verbal glacier]

i believe you can do "OrderType": "" and skip adding it to the board

[torpid sparrow]

i fucked that up recently i think

forgot to remove it from board

although i cant remember how

bc blank = town board

[verbal glacier]

SVE has that in a few special orders, so i think that should work

[merry river]

Yeah, that's what's been keeping me from using special orders for that specific quest

I'll look into SVE's SOs then

[torpid sparrow]

i think requiredtags

requiredtags will prevent it from showing up randomly

which i need to do

rn

[torpid sparrow]

its the requiredtags that are important not the ordertype

without required tags, it'll show up on town board

if u introduce the SO with an event or a traction, requiring the SO to have the event/traction's tag will prevent it from randomly showing up

and make it not repeatable

[merry river]

I see! Thank you, guys, I'll give it a spin

[merry river]

neat, I wanted to add it with a traction after receiving a specific letter

[orchid glade]

Oh just thinking about which characters would not like it. Eg. some people like Joja Cola, others do not. How does it fit into the story?

[torpid sparrow]

you can always specify gift taste for specific people

it overrides the universal placements

[orchid glade]

I did the thing where I reply late once the conversation has moved on, sorry lol

[long jungle]

Hi again!

Anyone know the texture path for professions?

[verbal glacier]

you mean the icons?

[long jungle]

Yup

[verbal glacier]

i believe they are in LooseSprites/cursors

[long jungle]

cursors is just a hotpot of everything, huh

[verbal glacier]

yup, everything...

[calm nebula]

(Keep in mind special orders have time limits.)

That SVE one appears on the board but you can either use a requiedtag to ban it or the gsq field

[torpid sparrow]

whats the significance of the time limit for having it not appear on the board?

also i am trying to add a custom item to universal taste but also to individual taste and if i add it to individual taste the universal patch doesnt apply anymore and idk why

guh idk whats going on i try restart

[primal garden]

this item is supposed to be a recreation of the roblox one tho

[torpid sparrow]

nvm i figured it out

stupid commas

[calm nebula]

What happens if someone fails the quest due to the time limit

[torpid sparrow]

i dont know im gonna need a direct answer

[toxic topaz]

Does anyone know how to find the pantry bundle location in the games code?

[orchid glade]

I'm looking for a specific mail flag or GSQ that's not listed anywhere on the wiki that I can find but I infer must exist - that's to do with obtaining a unique item found in a secret note. It must be tracked for the game to not keep giving them to you, but do I need to decompile to find it?

[calm nebula]

This is a judgement question not a technical one. What do u want.

[timber pilot]

interal name for an npc was the one starting with the mod name, right?

[torpid sparrow]

I don’t know what’s happening anymore I feel like I missed something

[calm nebula]

Player gets quest and fails to complete it, what do you want to happen?

[verbal glacier]

Are you referring to that the game stops giving you secret notes at one point, or that an item found via the secret notes is limited to one

[calm nebula]

Do they get the quest again after a cooldown

Are they shit out of luck

[torpid sparrow]

Ohhh

[calm nebula]

Does the quest show up on the board randomly

[orchid glade]

the item found being limited to 1

[torpid sparrow]

Is there an infinite time limit

If so I should probably change it to that

[calm nebula]

Not without 1.6.16 or a mod

[torpid sparrow]

Rats

[calm nebula]

Mice!

[orchid glade]

I mostly just want to check if it has been found

[calm nebula]

Which item is it

You'll probably need to decompile

[torpid sparrow]

Well only one quest is significant so hopefully no one fucks it up

[verbal glacier]

https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/Comprehensive_Mail_Flag_List

ignore the monster slayer goal flags on that

[orchid glade]

Solid Gold Lewis. ooh I'll check the comprehensive list Magnolia linked

[verbal glacier]

but the secret notes should be correct

[worldly wadi]

Heyyy I have a question. So, I have a custom town, and I want to add my own special order board on it, I don't want to use the vanilla one, do I need c# for that or there's a framework I can use?

[calm nebula]

emp iirc

[verbal glacier]

https://github.com/Esca-MMC/EscasModdingPlugins

[orchid glade]

Yay it's on there! Thankyou for pointing me to that resource and thanks to Aba for making it!

Oh Aba last edited it I guess it doesn't mean they made it, but anyway

[severe cairn]

You could make it repeatable but only if they don't have a flag or something else queryable maybe?
So if you complete it you get the flag, if that's not what you've done already >_< hard to tell if I missed context when reading back the convo

[stoic chasm]

Hello people. I was just curious: what conversation topic things should I make sure my npc reacts to?

[tiny zealot]

just the ones you want

here's a (partial) list of ones added by mods https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/Conversation_Topics:_List_of_CTs
along with some guidelines about whether it's appropriate to give your NPCs dialogue for them

[verbal glacier]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Dialogue#Conversation_topics and here's some vanilla

[tiny zealot]

note that i have occasionally seen players complain that every NPC under the sun is talking about a particular thing, so if that is a concern for you maybe exercise some restraint

[long jungle]

IMO, if they are a well-integrated NPC, they should react to most Vanilla Events that vanilla NPCs also react to. (e.g. green rain)

Of course, also depending on the NPC's interests and setting.

This is just my own opinion

[stoic chasm]

Ooo, okay then! Thank you all for the help!

[toxic topaz]

I'm using a decompiler to just look in the stardewvalley.dll file, but i cant seem to find anything of value

[glossy cargo]

Praise our lord and savior CA (or Pathos, maybe?)

FIBS is coded dynamically! I don't need to recode it from scratch for Archipelago

[timber pilot]

I managed to load an npc but I can't talk to her (the skull is the cursor)

[royal rover]

How do I detect when the player uses an item or tool? I'm trying to detect when the user has cast a fishing rod and is waiting for a fish to bite.

[merry river]

technically speaking, would it be possible to have the special order be added to the quest log once the player receives a specific letter and in case the player fails the quest for it to reappear at the quest board again at some point?

[ornate trellis]

siiiiiiiiiiiigh....i just tested something in my mod and happen to check one of my shops and the damn portrait and dialogue box of it is gone when it worked before. i did not touch that shop in any way, what is going on...

ah i see what it is, i was about to go bonkers but its jsut the self serving mod that opens it before its officially open, i was gonna say

[brittle pasture]

Farmer.UsingTool
also look at the various fields on FishingRod

(isFishing, isCasting, isReeling, etc)

[eager tree]

IT WORKS! lmao
you have no idea how happy i am

ignore the fucked up animation i was just testing

[brittle pasture]

have you read the source of the CommunityCenter location type

[wanton pine]

how do you implement warps so you don't get stuck warping between them?

[brittle pasture]

the bundle interaction tile index is defined in checkAction (also check the unpacked map of the ruined CC), but which bundle said tile opens depends on the room areas as defined in getAreaNumberFromLocation

[brittle pasture]

(disclaimer havent touched map that much) define stuck? usually avoid placing warps on top of another is enough

or warps that might be in the way of an NPC's path via pathfinding

[merry river]

nevermind i forgot that this is something you can easily trigger with mail

[wanton pine]

using CP or tiled, BTW

[calm nebula]

Sure!

[wanton pine]

I step on the warp tile to test it. I get warped to the correct tile, however (as it is a two-way connection - one addwarp to it and one addwarp for returning) once I arrive at the destination, if I try to walk off the tile I arrived on, I get warped back to where I came from with the exact same movement=warping scenario.

[ornate trellis]

you put the arrival tile on the warpout tile then

[brittle pasture]

yep warps usually put you one tile away from the warp in the other direction to avoid that scenario

[gaunt orbit]

It's in Locations.CommunityCenter

[toxic topaz]

yea im pretty sure im looking there

like that, but im not sure if im just missing what im supposed to be looking for or something

[void aspen]

Good morning everyone

[severe cairn]

Good morning :3

[brittle pasture]

did you decompile to read the source as well?

just the LSP tree isn't much

[wanton pine]

Should I extend the entryways by 1 so you show up closer to the main interior and warp back on the tiles further from it?
(cellar entry is concealed as it is set up to only show up once your farmhouse has one.)

[brittle pasture]

if it looks better then go ahead

[toxic topaz]

ah thats probably what i was missing

huh

i did that and it doesnt seem like anything changed

[wanton pine]

I'm more concerned about someone being confused when part of the entryway doesn't warp them back, TBH.

[void aspen]

I always make two tile wide edges on my maps now to put all the warps and stuff

So many typos in one message omg

[wanton pine]

IKR? I've been trying to slow down my typing so I don't make so many!

Of course, having a brain that haaaates spelling aggravates it. I hope that isn't a problem you have!

[royal rover]

Ty so much! I figured there was something simple I was missing.

[toxic topaz]

ah, wait, is this considered the source?

[brittle pasture]

yes

@wraith bay Hello! I sent you a DM with german translations for Cuter Slimes Refreshed, Animated Ducky Crab Pots, Tiny Totem Statue Obelisks, and Creative Neighbors

[severe cairn]

Good luck!

[wraith bay]

Lucy! You sweetheart, I just saw the msg request. Thank you!! I'll go through these, get back with you with I need any changes this weekend, and push updates early next week. Sound good?

[whole prism]

Totally fine! I'm looking for any mods of yours that add under 15 lines so I can also transalte them!

If you do decide to launch a major 30-40+ line update to creative neighbors i would need to do it a dif day

but other than that

im totally fine!

[wraith bay]

yay sounds good, no big changes on the horizon either, i just try to make sure i go through everything with care before i add them to the mods. one of my goals for 2026 is to improve how i work with language partners on both collections and mods, to make what has a translation, which translations need attention (since sometimes translators become unavailable for updates when there are years between changes haha) etc etc.

[urban patrol]

!npctroubleshooting

governor?

!troubleshootingnpc

[whole prism]

Yeah! Totally fine, I'd be fully capable of maintaining translations, however, I would need you to shoot me a DM when a big mod or 2+ small mods need it, so I dont get DMs every day haha

That way I can tackle it, and send it back to you

[urban patrol]

https://stardewmodding.wiki.gg/wiki/Troubleshooting:_NPCs

(ah it’s !npchelp)

[timber pilot]

is this faulty?

because I double checked everything yet it does ot work

her schedule and gift tastes did load but ot dialogue

[urban patrol]

no, that looks right, as long as that’s your filepath and your NPC’s internal name is mod id regina

[timber pilot]

it is

[urban patrol]

did you remember to include your dialogue json if it’s a separate file

[timber pilot]

yes

[urban patrol]

did you finish going through the troubleshooting steps? if so you can try sharing your code

[timber pilot]

ok I igured it out

the rain dialogue was messing things up

[subtle spear]

Quick question fellow modders! If I wanted to make an event that's similar to a festival where you can walk around and talk to NPCs but it's just for one day for a heart event, what would I put that under? Is it still an event or a festival? Or is this even possible? TYIA!

*not yearly just once!

[verbal glacier]

i think you could use condition and then a passive festival. https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Passive_Festival_data

[urban patrol]

it depends what you want from it

active festivals will shut down the town, but don’t require schedule changes. passive festivals are the opposite

time also won’t pass on an active festival day

[fossil osprey]

Do you want something like Haley's event (on the beach, looking for her bracelet) where you can walk around while in an event?

[subtle spear]

I'm just looking for the player to go into a building at a certain time, they can still walk around and talk to the people in the festival, and then talk to my NPC when they're ready to begin

[subtle spear]

I Was considering that! But I don't know if you can talk to people when you do it

[urban patrol]

ready to begin what?

[subtle spear]

the event lol

[urban patrol]

you can but with an asterisk

[subtle spear]

oooohhh interesting

[urban patrol]

playerControl is still kind of hardcoded behavior

once you give it up to the player, you can’t get it back without C# or one of the hardcoded behaviors like luau

[subtle spear]

ahh okay I'll see what I can do! Thank you so much!! 😄

[severe cairn]

wait wait wait you can talk to people in playercontrol?
Please tell me howwww i was looking for ittt

Oh wait i could probably just look at haleys event, but some more explaination would be helpful since i cant find anything abt it in tutorials

[urban patrol]

i would do tiledata

it’s janky but i can’t think of how else

[severe cairn]

oh wait fr you can interact with map stuff in events?

I needed this like a week ago haha

[urban patrol]

yeah that’s how you throw things in the soup etc

or buy stuff from pierre

festivals are just sparkling events

[severe cairn]

yeah i saw the similarities, i just couldnt figure out how to do the interactions at the time cus i havent touched map stuff yet haha

good to know now tho!

[urban patrol]

yeah!

overall i would recommend an active festival for your own convenience but you do have to be aware of its effects

[severe cairn]

Ive done a lot of Map Jank™ like 3 days ago, so future Map Jank™ is acceptable

[toxic topaz]

Are bundle names hardcoded into the game like their positions?

Thinking about all this bundle stuff made me want to add my own bundle for my character lol

[tiny zealot]

playercontrol is pretty hardcoded (perhaps one day soonish i will have a solution)
haley's beach event just says like "playerControl haleyBeach" and the stuff behind the scenes of that is all C# specific to that scene

[brittle pasture]

every user visible string is exposed in content somewhere (usually Strings/)

try looking in there (on my phone at work lol)

[toxic topaz]

Ooh nice, then I can probably just use cp to patch that

Thank you selph

[whole prism]

Silly question

The weather ID in the given location. The <weather> can be one of Festival, GreenRain, Rain, Snow, Storm, Sun, Wind, or a custom weather ID.

If I choose Rain, will it still pick up Storm?

or do I have to add Rain Storm

if i want both detected

on ginger island

and the normal town

like "WEATHER Here Rain Storm"?

[marsh reef]

🤔 can it storm without rain?

[whole prism]

well

it says there are actual differences

so im trying to clarify

[whole prism]

id assume in stardew yes

at least from what the doc shows

well, not that b ut

id assume rain is mild

and storm u hear thunder, dif weathers

[marsh reef]

"what the doc shows" as in this?

[whole prism]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Game_state_queries

Yeah I do just add Rain Storm since both can occur, not at once but sometimes weather is more severe soemtimes id imagine

good to know

[half tangle]

yeah, just because we see in game that it is also raining during a storm, Rain and Storm are different internally

[whole prism]

good to know!

[half tangle]

also atra can be sneaky, but notice the ☝️ reaction above

[calm nebula]

Sinc you're doing fish, the data/ fish variant would collapse both Rain and Storm together

[whole prism]

This is for quest

Under Data/TriggerActions

I think I'll make it GreenRain Rain Storm

since i want any kind of rain to trigger it

[calm nebula]

The reason why i say that is because the data/fish thing wojld also consider rainy mod weathers

[whole prism]

ah gotchu

I see tilesheet climbing

!tilesheetclimbing

[ocean sail]

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.

[void aspen]

do you load both of your map and tilesheet in Maps/ ?

wait its for SVE huh

[primal garden]

what category would a mod be that replaces an item texture on vortex

[wanton pine]

I have never used Vortex with SDV, but it would be "visuals & graphics" or "models & textures" for Skyrim.

there's probably an equivalent for SDV.

As your mod doesn't sound like it's a complete reskin of the game, I would label it as "textures" (seeing as SDV does not have any 3d models, the name is probably different).

[urban patrol]

that’s part of the name of their mod

[void aspen]

Yeah that threw me off a bit lol

Fixing the path should generally fix it

[wanton pine]

yes it is, because I set the greenhouse exit to warp the player to 90, 10 (SVE frontier farm) to ensure you can exit correctly, since I'm pretty sure that I changed the greenhouse's entryway location.

[wanton pine]

would adding animations to the "spring outdoor" tilesheet in my ...mapmaking/maps folder cause this?

[void aspen]

generally animations shouldn't do anything but

[latent mauve]

Your map and your tilesheets should always use a relative path to avoid tilesheet climbing errors (which means that you shouldn't have .../ or anything like that in your tilesheet reference in the map file).

[wanton pine]

the .../ is shorthand.

[latent mauve]

This means that while editing, you generally want to either use a tool like tilesheetinator or set your tilesheet paths while your map file and the required tilesheets are next to each other.

right, but for instance, if you are using the spring_outdoors.png for a tilesheet, the path should ONLY read spring_outdoors.png for the image source. with no other pieces in there.

[void aspen]

wait does one even have to specify greenhouse warp, doesn't it get automatically changed to match the current greenhouse location on farm

thats not the tilesheet path thing but i just thought about it

[void aspen]

when you do this, map will try to find the path in the same folder it is so you will have to have the same file there unless its vanilla

which also usually in the same Maps folder

[wanton pine]

bottom left doorway is the exit

[latent mauve]

(if you've loaded your map file to Maps/ then it works as intended in game, but you DO have to remove any copies of vanilla tilesheets in your own mod folder before publishing)

[void aspen]

right

using tsinator helps with that since you don't have to use anything vanilla in your mod folder

[latent mauve]

Sorry, I wasn't sure if we were disagreeing on something or not 😛

Wanted to be clear

[wanton pine]

how does that work with the paths tilesheet needing to be first and the z_name prefix adaption to that?

[void aspen]

nope I was adding and explaining in addition to your post

sorry if it sounded wrong

[void aspen]

iirc we dont need to use z_ anymore

[latent mauve]

for custom tilesheets, SMAPI prepends them with the z_ name prefix without you having to do anything AFAIK

To fix the ordering issue

[void aspen]

cp and tsinator do everything for you so you don't have to do anything except correct path

[primal garden]

should I do rar file or a zip file when I upload my mod?

[void aspen]

zip

[latent mauve]

(If you already have z_ it won't double prepend it)

[void aspen]

always do zip its better and supported natively by windows too iirc

rar is not really

[latent mauve]

ZIP is much more accessible for users to extract, RAR requires third-party tools on both Mac and Windows now, I think

[void aspen]

I still use winrar fsr lol

but only to open zips

[uncut viper]

SMAPI does this, not Content Patcher

[calm nebula]

If you upload a rar nexus has an about 60% chance of declaring your mod a virus btw

Not sure why, save your sanity and just use zip

[latent mauve]

LOL, literally just edited my post to clarify that I was unsure if it was CP or SMAPI

nightmares

[wanton pine]

how do I remove tilesheets in Tiled that show up with this:

(the button is disabled)

[void aspen]

what tilesheet is it

it usually doesn't disable the button

[wanton pine]

it does this with any tilesheet it has loaded that has not been used on the map. I can close and reopen the .tmx and they will still be there.

[void aspen]

are you using the up to date version of Tiled

[wanton pine]

incredibly annoying, esp because it's causing the errors.

[urban patrol]

sounds like you have an unembedded tsx floating around maybe

[void aspen]

totally this

[wanton pine]

I did. I delected it. its menu page is still showing up

[void aspen]

[wanton pine]

ah.

🤦‍♀️

[marsh reef]

:) acnl farm coming along

[calm nebula]

Smh

[fierce vault]

tbh, you’ve inspired me to maybe make a villager’s house as a farmhouse option. It could be cute!

[void aspen]

stardew valley but with fear and hunger textures 😋

gotta make it one day

[marsh reef]

im gonna be making 5 villagers with their houses on the farm, if you'd like to see the farmhouse options ive made so far i can show you :)

[torpid sparrow]

move {{ModId}}.Tilly 1 0 0 false/move {{ModId}}.Tilly 0 -10 3 true Tilly moves forever to the right, does anyone see what's wrong with this? i have no errors

[urban patrol]

move 1 is cursed sometimes

[acoustic summit]

Thats such a cute idea! As the multiplayer options or seperate maps?

[torpid sparrow]

grr

[urban patrol]

i have no further suggestions

[strong kite]

Does anybody know how to have a food apply 2 different buffs with different icons using SpaceCore?

[urban patrol]

try exchanging it for an advanced move

[marsh reef]

the cabins im thinking of starting out as the tents, the villagers are gonna be seperate maps yea

[torpid sparrow]

yeah i move it any other way and it stops being super mean to me

[urban patrol]

yeah idk why it hates 1 specifically

[torpid sparrow]

alright event fixed

gonna be a bugfix update

boo

[fierce vault]

I’d definitely like to see them at somepoint! Since I might make one myself though, I don’t think I want to look to closely at similar ideas right now! I’m thinking I might do rosie’s!

[torpid sparrow]

1 borks events on a whim

grr

[marsh reef]

😎 no idea what you're saying with this my guy, i havent started any of the villager's houses yet, just the player

[fierce vault]

oh, lol, sorry I misunderstood

Sure, I’ll see the options!

what have you made?

[marsh reef]

AT for the upgraded house, and the progression upgrades

i have two more upgrades to make then alternate roof/door colors

[fierce vault]

Ooo

very cool idea!

They look really accurate too

[acoustic summit]

They look really cute!

[strong kite]

maan why does using the "CustomFields" field for a food item consolidate all the buffs into one

[uncut viper]

CustomFields has absolutely no effect on anything unless a C# mod specifically uses it.

[strong kite]

I'm using an effect from SpaceCore that says to use "CustomFields"

The Health Regeneration buff

And it doesn't work when put in with "CustomAttributes"

[uncut viper]

I'm not sure what you mean then by consolidating them all into one, but I'm also not familiar enough with spacecore food buffs to know if there are any limitations on it

Are you sure you aree using the correct CustomFields field? Each Buff entry itself has a CustomFields

(i.e. don't use CustomAttributes)

[strong kite]

So, this food is meant to give a buff with custom attributes, but it's also supposed to give the Burnt debuff for a shorter amount of time that also has negative HealthRegeneration

[uncut viper]

You can just add multiple Buffs to the object's Buffs list then

[strong kite]

                        {
                            "BuffId": 12,
                            "Duration": 225,
                            "GlowColor": "Orange",
                            "CustomFields": {
                                "spacechase0.SpaceCore/HealthRegeneration": -0.5,
                                }
                            },
                        {
                        "Duration": 300,
                        "IconTexture": "{{InternalAssetKey: assets/bufficons.png}}",
                        "IconSpriteIndex": 2,
                        "CustomAttributes": {
                            "LuckLevel": 3,
                            "CriticalChanceMultiplier": 4,
                            "CriticalPowerMultiplier": 3,
                            "MagneticRadius": 96,```
That's what I've done

But when I use "CustomFields" it just gets rid of that other buff

[uncut viper]

Well your second one isnt even inside a buff object

Oh wait it is, just weird indenting

[strong kite]

yeah i've had to change this up a lot, it doesn't look pretty

also cut off the last 4 brackets so the wall of text wasn't so big

[uncut viper]

Using CustomFields shouldnt just remove it, but it is possible Spacecore is doing something strange under the hood

[strong kite]

That might be the case

Cuz if I set it to "CustomAttributes" the health regeneration doesn't work, but it does properly give the two different buffs

However the code as is shown above results in this which.. is weirdly enough a different result from what I feel like I'd been getting

the speed buff icon is from CJB ftr

[uncut viper]

Unfortunately I'm not familiar enough with Buffs in general, let alone how Spacecore does it, to be much help here, sorry

[strong kite]

Ah, no worries

[royal rover]

So, I'm trying to detect when the player uses a fishing rod. I could just check Game1.player.usingTool && Game1.player.ActiveItem is FishingRod on each tick, but that seems excessive. Unfortunately the Farmer.beginUsingToolEvent and Farmer.endUsingToolEvent are both private, so I don't seem to be able to add my own event handlers to those. Am I missing something?

[strong kite]

I guess this could work, though I'd prefer it not have the name "Burnt" with the custom icon and also I'd prefer if the debuffs ended a little earlier than the buffs

[uncut viper]

Checking that each tick wouldn't be that bad, definitely completely negligible compared to all the stuff the game already does each tick, but if I were trying to do it I'd probably just find the right fishing rod function to postfix tbh

You could also just access those fields with reflection too if you really wanted to

To bypass the access modifier

[royal rover]

I hadn't thought of that 🙂

[uncut viper]

But a postfix on like FishingRod.beginUsing() is very easy

[inland rain]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/44823

[royal rover]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but bypassing the access modifier with reflection would mean having to re-add the event handler any time a save was loaded or created, while adding a postfix would automatically work.

[uncut viper]

Sounds correct to me

[strong kite]

I guess maybe I'll just look into adding more Giant Crops while I wait for someone who can help with my buffs issue

[rich seal]

The worst part about modding isn't the learning process; it's the documenting. I didn't write down half of the things I did over the past week, whoops lmao

[eager tree]

i write as i do it, otherwise i forget everything lmao

[rich seal]

I should've been doing that

But fish... they drove me crazy

[severe cairn]

move true has the tendency to be real jank, same with advancedmove, usually I just gotta add another move and set that to false as soon as possible after the true. Usually I do that behind a fade tho, so idk about the timing...
Seems you fixed it though :D what did you use? I think im currently facing that issue and none of the usual way i fix it is working for some reason... event jank™

[torpid sparrow]

i just used advancedMove instead

[severe cairn]

tragic cus advancedMove caused me other issues
But i managed to fix it. somehow. idk what I did honestly. Just kinda moved things around 😭

[whole prism]

[severe cairn]

sometimes I'll be changing something like 10 commands later and it'll affect something earlier and im like ??? what
It always seems unrelated too

[torpid sparrow]

bork bork bork

borking so much it might as well be a shih tzu

[void aspen]

whats the robins house location name

[torpid sparrow]

ScienceHouse

for whatever reason

[strong kite]

Demetrius and Maru I imagine

[torpid sparrow]

i wonder when CA decided to make it the carpenter's as well

bc that's much more relevant

[verbal glacier]

At least it ain't JoshHouse

[ornate trellis]

so uh...for a map patch do i need to add lights differently? somehow mine wont work when I do them via the Light map properties(its outside and a map patch that happens once a month)

[strong kite]

that confused me so much when i saw it in Locations.json lmao

[severe cairn]

Im so thankful I learnt about Alex and Willy's beta names before modding 😂

CA really said "Maybe thats too on the nose" for Willy but did not change the intent fr

[torpid sparrow]

what's willy's beta name

[severe cairn]

nickname for richard

[ornate trellis]

the worst name ever

[urban patrol]

you can see it in his fishing animation

[torpid sparrow]

ah

[severe cairn]

I had to use his animation name for my mod, cus it's hardcoded to be longer for him fishing, and i needed that so my character can fish too, so i have to write that in my schedule files and everything 😭 you dont get used to it but i guess its kinda funny

[void aspen]

is there a way to render my player behind my horse whenever it faces south without c

[severe cairn]

Content Patcher-only type of jank

[strong kite]

When I first made this mod I really should have considered the balancing issues that might come from making 66 different multi-harvest crops

I guess unlike Blueberries and Cranberries at least, once these are harvested they dont regrow

[whole prism]

Quick question

PLAYER_HAS_CAUGHT_FISH Current (O){{ModID}}_PiratesDoubloon

For Objects, when caught, do we still use the caught fish proprety for it? Or is there another way to figure out if a player fished up a specific object (thats not a fish, but caught in the same way)

its a "Basic" item

[frank galleon]

Does anyone know if I can use the AddItem action within dialogue to give the player a flavored vanilla item? I know in other places you can use a slash to reference a flavor, but it seems to break the action, I guess because a slash has a specific meaning when parsed. I'm trying to do something like this:
"fall_15": "Have some blueberry wine! #$action AddItem (O)348/258 1 2"

[brittle pasture]

no

possible with a framework like PeliQ or EMC though

[frank galleon]

Thank you!

[brittle pasture]

they add a variant of additem that uses an item query (which supports flavored items via FLAVORED_ITEM)

[frank galleon]

I did think there might be some way to use an item query for it, but good to know that it's not supported out of the box

[lucid iron]

why do u need this

isnt hors already under you

[void aspen]

OH im stupid

I deleted the head sprite

Okay thanks ill fix it

[toxic topaz]

hi, does anyone know why my trapdoor warp might not be working? https://smapi.io/json/none/bbfd356f2fdb4e868b3c493f0d656872

[torpid sparrow]

you dont have an arrival tile

maybe thats why?

[toxic topaz]

isnt this my arrival tile?

[torpid sparrow]

no thats where the warp is

5 4

going to the basement

where to in the basement, idk

[latent mauve]

You need two sets of coordinates for Warps

[torpid sparrow]

6 20 Mountain 76 9

this would be Town 6 20 is where the warp is, going to Mountain 76 9

[latent mauve]

first coord is where the warp tile is located to leave the map, the location name and second coordinates are where the warp takes you

[toxic topaz]

then whats this for?

[latent mauve]

MapTiles are for TileData objects.

Warps are map properties.

[toxic topaz]

oh, so do i have the warp tile just be 12, 7 aswell?

[torpid sparrow]

if thats where u want to go

[latent mauve]

unless they are Action Warps (the ones you click on to interact instead of walking over), in which case, your warp format is still different.

[torpid sparrow]

i dont think theyre related though

[latent mauve]

Are you looking for a warp you walk over or one you click on (think obelisks or outside doors)?

[toxic topaz]

click on

like basically just the wizard trapdoor

im making a basement

[latent mauve]

Was there an error in your console when you tried to use it?

[toxic topaz]

no, it just like didnt do anything at all

[torpid sparrow]

oh wait so why aren't you doing it in tiled?

[latent mauve]

okay, so your format is fine for an Action Warp

is there an actual tile on the Buildings layer under that object?

[toxic topaz]

huh?

yea

[latent mauve]

Tiled is not necessary to complete the action, no need to confuse them more right now. 🙂

[torpid sparrow]

fair enough

[latent mauve]

And that's on the Buildings layer of the map?

[toxic topaz]

yes it is

[latent mauve]

(keep in mind, the Community Center is very cursed in its non-complete state)

[toxic topaz]

i remember in tiled seeing the special tile thing above interactable objects, but i wasnt sure how to do that

[latent mauve]

You may very well just be in a room that is getting reloaded and nuking your tiledata object.

(I ran into that with my Useable Community Center mod)

[toxic topaz]

hmmmm.... i hope that isnt the case

i already solved the problem of my npc not being able to walk in there

[ornate locust]

my patch note list is getting so long, but I can't stop ramping

[latent mauve]

Yeah, I feel like we mentioned before that CC patches are cursed until the CC is done

Try moving the trapdoor and the tiledata action to part of the hallway or something in case it's room specific cursing.

For a test

[toxic topaz]

you did lol, but i just need a single warp door and im done with it

sure

i could probably also test it in the finished community center on a diff file to see if it works there

You could

Are you able to debug warp into the basement location, just to be sure there isn't something with the location not being recognized?

I've definitely done some silly things like mispelling the location name in the warp before, so best to just rule it out

[toxic topaz]

sure ill try that

.... huh, it wont let me warp into it

[latent mauve]

is there an error being returned?

says theres no output

so im guessing it doesnt exist?

to define your basement as a location that the game can recognize

That's the one we need

okay thank you so much, ill give an update if it works

[latent mauve]

You can scroll all the way down to the code block

[toxic topaz]

well i got my little basement i made real quick to load, but the warp tile still doesnt want to work strangely

[latent mauve]

and you've already tried moving the warp tile?

I'd honestly try putting it outside the community center (maybe hidden around the back, like a cellar door situation?) just to see if it's being inside there that is causing the issue

[toxic topaz]

yea ill try putting one outside and just getting that one to work first

that way ill know if its the community center jank

[latent mauve]

If the little hand isn't showing up at all, then it's almost certainly the Community Center curse

[urban patrol]

just to butt in, it is possible to warp in and out of the CC

[toxic topaz]

including console?

because when i warped to the basement i was in CC

[marsh reef]

guys, how does one set where the shipping bin spawns on a custom farm? 🤔

[urban patrol]

what did you put

[toxic topaz]

i did debug warp yumyoboi.MeguminNPC_Megumin_Basement 5 4

[brave fable]

ShippingBinLocation
https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Maps#Warps_.26_map_positions

[urban patrol]

and it put you in the cc?

[toxic topaz]

it put me in the basement at 5, 4

[urban patrol]

then i’m confused because that’s expected behavior

[toxic topaz]

im trying to figure out how to use tiled to make this warp thing

[urban patrol]

it should be like any other Action Warp tile data

what do you have?

[toxic topaz]

i dont know how to do the "action warp tile data" lol

[urban patrol]

[[Modding:Maps]] the wiki shows how

[empty radish]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Maps

[latent mauve]

nic, he created an Action Warp tile property with the CP code method which should have worked fine.

Currently we are just making sure that his tiledata patch even works outside the Community Center before trying inside again, because I can confirm that my patches with attached TileData do NOT consistently work until CC is done, even if the visuals do.

[urban patrol]

okay wait let me find the patch

you need to target all map variants

[latent mauve]

It was missing location data before so better to make sure the warp even works first

Before we overcomplicate it

[toxic topaz]

wait, is it one of those things where you have to specify that its the ruins variant

[urban patrol]

yep

ruins joja etc

[toxic topaz]

makes sense, i had to take that into account when making my characters room

ill try that

[urban patrol]

welcome to the fun world of maps vs locations

[latent mauve]

(I have done this with my patches and they still aren't consistent because of the constant CC reloads in the rooms)

[latent mauve]

Please don't get distracted from verifying that the warp works outside/not in CC first

[toxic topaz]

good point, but if this works then i wont have to try that i think

[urban patrol]

yeah sorry lily and yumy i didn’t mean to distract from step by step troubleshooting

[latent mauve]

I was trying to avoid you getting pulled into multiple directions at once instead of taking things one at a time

[toxic topaz]

ill do that next

oh no you're all good its my fault not yours

uh

well it works

but

i didnt have to click on it

[latent mauve]

Then you added a Warp to the map properties instead of the Action Warp tile property when you updated it

The only problem with that tutorial I linked is that it assumes you want a warp that you walk over

Which is the last code block in it

[toxic topaz]

wait wtf....

[latent mauve]

Map property warps do consistently work for incomplete CC in my experience, it's the tile data properties that don't always

[toxic topaz]

  "12 7 {{ModId}}_Megumin_Basement 5 4"```

so thats just a walk over warp?

[latent mauve]

Yeah, that's a map property / walk over warp

You need the MapTiles code you had before for clickable warp

[toxic topaz]

ahhh, okay. ill put that in now then

omg it works

thank you so much nic and fire

[golden shadow]

Hi! I'm really shy about asking this because I have no coding experience but I don't know where else to go to ask this. Can someone direct me to the right channel to ask about this in?

I am not making a mod, but I am altering an existing mod for personal use.

I have a questing about coding. A mod I got came bugged and the original mod author seems to be inactive (otherwise i'd just ask them myself.). I want this mod to work, so I am trying to fix the issue myself (I definitely am NOT a coder so I don't really know how to fix this on my own.). The mod I am trying to fix uses Content Patcher Animations as a dependency (I hope this is the correct term.), I am aware that dependency is outdated, however it still works. ....Just not when it becomes winter.

I made an image with the code/error/etc. and text accompanying it that I hope can explain my issue more and what I am trying to fix. I really hope I explained this well, sorry in advance!

I ask this in modded-tech-support, right? I'm sorry, I don't really know what I'm doing, haha-

[latent mauve]

This is the right place to ask, as you are editing a mod!

[golden shadow]

Okay cool! Thank you so much! I can provide more details if needed.

This is for all bachelors but i'll just use Sebastians as an example. The code in the screenshots is from the content.json file of the mod.

(I really hope I'm explaining this well!!!)

[lucid iron]

ah so it's an animated portrait mod

[golden shadow]

Yeah! It works, just not when it is winter, haha-

[lucid iron]

you dont need to conditionally change it, just make a copy of all the patches whose Target say Portraits/Sebastian_Winter

now normally the "Targets": "Portraits/Sebastian, Portraits/Sebastian_Winter" syntax is supposed to work but it probably doesnt bc CPA jank

the reason why it is deprecated is that it has some performance problems and you can use spacecore to do what you want now

this mod should have exampels of how to do it spacecore way

[golden shadow]

I see I see. Thank you again! I'll look into these and I'll come back if I have any other issues/questions!

[lucid iron]

yea just to be clear its ok if u just do this instead of rewriting it in spacecore

[fierce vault]

wow, my npc's house layout wasn't great. Amazing what spending months away from something can help you realize

[torpid sparrow]

what does it look like?

[fierce vault]

Oh... uh, it's still really unfinished. I have a lot of furniture to make, or to move onto my custom sprite sheet

It's a bit fantastical though

[fierce vault]

One of the things it suffered from was being too big

[torpid sparrow]

big maps r difficult

[fierce vault]

I condensed a lot of things, and it feels less awkward now

Big houses tend to struggle with making the space feel used, imo

[torpid sparrow]

the amethyne house is pretty full

but long hallways just make things feel empty

excuse me the amethyne mansion

[fierce vault]

I'm really not a fan of long hallways in stardew, specifically. They look odd to me

[torpid sparrow]

theyre hard to decorate

[fierce vault]

I like how you made yours from the pictures though. It's a good size

[torpid sparrow]

i think i started a little bit smaller and just sized up when i needed it

• added on the kitchen later

[fierce vault]

The kitchen is one of the things I had to downsize for mine

[torpid sparrow]

i think the only big interior ive made is the uhhh

workshop for my expansion

where is that pic

there it is

the bottom right is kinda empty

clutter clutter clutter

[fierce vault]

That is a lot of space to work with!

[modest dagger]

wem why are there cages

wem who are you imprisoning

[torpid sparrow]

pirates

they take prisoners

[fierce vault]

It feels like a warehouse a bit

[torpid sparrow]

it's the shipwrights' workshop

tinker tinker

[fierce vault]

One thing I realized my npc's house needed was to look more run down lol

It had too many amenities before, like a bedroom
