Regionkit breaking Rain Meadow Story Mode | Rain World | Page 1

Some time ago regionkit started to break Rain Meadows Story mode. When I try to open a Rain Meadow Story Lobby I get stuck on the "creting Lobby screen". I can stop this screen by pressing escape and am returned to the Lobby selection screen. If I press escape again I am in my "Lobby", but trying to load/start a new save from this "broken Lobby" ends up in an infinite Loading screen. It would be nice if anyone could help me with that.

#

this is the exceptionLog i get if that helps.

seems like an incompat

does "some time ago" mean before or after the watcher dlc release?

terse rivet May 7, 2025, 8:34 PM

#

some time ago may be bad wording

#

bc it actually refers to like 3 or 4 days ago

elder geyser May 7, 2025, 8:36 PM

#

oh i see 1hunterkek

#

rk got an update on the 4th may, 3 days ago

#

guess that broke it

#

oh, right

have you tried testing with regionkit disabled? and with only rk and rain meadow?

#

in theory it may be an incompat with rk and some other mod, unrelated to rain meadow

terse rivet May 7, 2025, 8:38 PM

#

nope it really is just regionkit and rain meadow

#

BUT

#

only if i also enable MSC

#

the problem is replicating the error.
Because i had a friend start a lobby with the exact same mods enabled that broke it for me and it worked for him.

elder geyser May 7, 2025, 8:43 PM

#

have you edited any base game or msc files, or use setup.txt or anything?

#

enabling msc also enables rw remix ...

#

this almost seems like an incompat between rk and msc, more than anything

#

could you provide more details about your rain meadow lobby, too? i ,, havent actually played rain meadow myself, but if it allows you to play as MSC cats, this may be an issue with ... uh, im not sure

#

the specific exception looks mostly like a slugcat specific room... template? wait wdym template. regionkit what are you talking about

hidden latch May 7, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

room templates

terse rivet May 7, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

elder geyser have you edited any base game or msc files, or use setup.txt or anything?

only garritofeature (if it is called that?), but that should have gotten lost with my reinstall

hidden latch May 7, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

rk allows you to add slug-specific room templates

elder geyser May 7, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

i see

hidden latch May 7, 2025, 8:46 PM

#

it's probably related to whatever slugcat campaign you're set to or smthn

terse rivet May 7, 2025, 8:46 PM

#

elder geyser this almost seems like an incompat between rk and msc, more than anything

already tried an older version of rk (it worked before the rk update), also didn't work

terse rivet May 7, 2025, 8:47 PM

#

hidden latch it's *probably* related to whatever slugcat campaign you're set to or smthn

how do u mean that?

hidden latch May 7, 2025, 8:48 PM

#

idk

#

what's your lobby settings?

terse rivet May 7, 2025, 8:48 PM

#

standard besides enable custom slugcats

hidden latch May 7, 2025, 8:48 PM

#

is it survivor campaign?

terse rivet May 7, 2025, 8:49 PM

#

Inv actually

#

but all campaigns are broken even if i disable the inv mod

#

as soon as msc rk and rain meadow are enabled at the same time rain meadow breaks

hidden latch May 7, 2025, 8:54 PM

#

I assume you're in 'story mode'?

#

does the error happen with a different mode?

#

@terse rivet try putting this in steamapps\workshop\content\312520\2920439476\newest\plugins and then send consolelog.txt after making the issue happen

📎 RegionKit.dll

terse rivet May 7, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

sry have to go to sleep. I'll try it and reply tomorrow.

hidden latch May 7, 2025, 9:08 PM

#

👍

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 1:54 PM

Here's the console log that was generated after I took the exact steps I mentioned in my problem description.

📎 consoleLog.txt

#

I'll also just put the generated exception log here in case smth changed in there

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 2:00 PM

#

terse rivet Here's the console log that was generated after I took the exact steps I mention...

of course the ones generated after putting in your .dll

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 4:45 PM

#

ugh, consolelog is basically empty

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 4:49 PM

#

do i have to change any settings so there appears more in the console log?

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 4:54 PM

#

uh, normally there should be a lot more appearing and idk why it wouldn't for you

#

maybe try getting the logswitch mod

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:00 PM

#

new console log.
Now it has more stuff to analyze.

📎 consoleLog.txt

#

repeated it one more time and got even more

📎 consoleLog.txt

#

The list of what I assume are my unlocked shelters with specific slugcats mentions regions shelters which are incompaible with the current game version.
Is that maybe what's causing it to fail?

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:09 PM

#

no

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:09 PM

#

ok

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:09 PM

#

you put the regionkit dll in newest\plugins, right?

#

not just plugins?

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:09 PM

#

I'm so fucking stupid

#

my bad

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:10 PM

#

nah you're fine, that's easy to miss

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:11 PM

#

wait

#

no

#

it was/is in newest/plugins

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:12 PM

#

ok

#

I'm not sure why it's not logging then...

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:15 PM

#

what should be logged after installing this dll, if I may ask?

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:15 PM

#

#

does this stuff show up if you start a normal game?

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:16 PM

#

one second

#

so standard singleplayer. Correct?

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:17 PM

#

yeah

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:17 PM

#

now i got this. It somewhat looks more like what you're looking for

📎 consoleLog.txt

#

at least further down

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:18 PM

#

ok, well that means the dll is running

#

but I'm not sure why it won't log anything when starting the meadow lobby

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:19 PM

#

maybe it's because i get stuck in a loading screen

#

without the campaign/simulation ever starting

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:19 PM

#

this exception is happening in the part of the code that I added the log to

#

unfortunately I'm not currently set up to debug further, so might just have to leave this as unsolved for now

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:22 PM

#

we could try replicating the error on your end.

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:22 PM

#

well that's the problem, I can't replicate the error

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:23 PM

#

what's your modlist

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:23 PM

#

I'm a watcher dev and currently I'm set up for making more watcher, so I don't have a regular install of the game atm

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:23 PM

#

the thing is i got it replicated on my friends pc

terse rivet May 8, 2025, 8:23 PM

ah ic

#

ok then don't worry

#

I think switching to the old game version until the problem might get resolved should work fine

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 8:24 PM

#

@thick shoal if you wanted to take a look at this, I can't figure out what could possibly be null ref'ing here. I used dnspy to add a log at the start of the delegate but that doesn't seem to run, so I'm worried it's something to do with emitting the delegate? idk

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:12 PM

#

hidden latch <@598549504907542549> if you wanted to take a look at this, I can't figure out w...

issues seems to be slugcat-specific templates, and I think I found a problematic line. though I haven't tested to be sure. not even sure why it wasn't erroring attempting to apply previously given that it was loading a Room onto the stack when the delegate expected a RoomSettings

#

gonna test now to be sure

#

did you know that you need to have more slugcats expansion enabled to test saint :glue:

#

awesome moment of smartness from me

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:17 PM

#

ldarg issue ig

#

actually ldarg0 is always self, not sure how I made that mistake or how it wasn't breaking before

#

the code works with arid barrens, or at least it did in 1.9, so I'm not sure why it breaks for meadow

#

(tbh I'd rework a few things about the code now cuz I don't like it, like using a CWT instead of a static to pass the data in)

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:19 PM

#

hm what region mods use slugcat-specific templates

#

I thought coral caves did but then I looked at the file name again and no it just has a template for saint which it uses in its saint rooms

#

I also discovered this weird lantern shadow issue but that might have always been like that

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

ah, looks like it broke when you ported to 1.10

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

oh what the hell that was my fault t hen

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

arid barrens definitely uses it. the feature was made for AB

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:21 PM

#

why did I think 0 had to be incremented LMAO

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:21 PM

#

terse rivet now i got this. It somewhat looks more like what you're looking for

I guess it always works because playerChar is always null? which uh... shouldn't be the case and probably indicates it isn't working

#

except meadow must've somehow forced it to work?

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:22 PM

#

the delegate already null checks playerChar

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:22 PM

#

yeah, exactly

#

so it never runs the bit after where it actually uses self

#

although... if that was the reason idk why the log wouldn't run

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:23 PM

#

I have a hunch it is not the fault of rain meadow

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:23 PM

#

the code here is definitely messed up, but as per the report it only breaks in meadow's lobby if MSC is enabled

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:24 PM

#

do we know all enabled mods? I haven't read the entire thread

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:24 PM

#

no

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:25 PM

#

@terse rivet what mods did you have enabled? (list all)

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:25 PM

#

I think they're asleep now

#

the stack trace doesn't show any other mods besides RK and Meadow, so if it is a different mod causing the issue to trigger it's happening from something not in the stack trace

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:26 PM

#

I was thinking like some cosmetic region mod that would have no code

#

and therefore wouldn't show up in the stack trace

#

(example being solar's revamped outskirts)

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:27 PM

#

how would that cause the issue?

#

it's happening in the meadow lobby

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:27 PM

#

oh in the meadow lobby

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:27 PM

#

yeah, Region.LoadAllRegions gets called directly from Meadow

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:27 PM

#

I've never played meadow is the lobby playable or is it a menu

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:27 PM

#

nope, not playable

#

it's specifically happening here

#

I find it interesting that Meadow uses the obsolete LoadAllRegions instead of the Timeline one

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:30 PM

#

still works I guess

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:30 PM

#

yeah it should have the same result

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:30 PM

#

just produces a compiler warning

#

regionkit has enough of those for an obsolete warning to easily slip by

#

(how did we even get to this point)

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:31 PM

#

probably nullable warnings I'm guessing?

thick shoal May 8, 2025, 9:32 PM

#

a lot of them

#

this is a lovely comment in ShelterBehaviorManager

hidden latch May 8, 2025, 9:36 PM

#

uh yeah thalber completely gutted its functionality to not interfere with osha compliant gates and it was never restored

#

previously it just replaced the entire method when it should've used an il hook, which was why it was incompatible

#

kinda crazy

terse rivet May 9, 2025, 6:21 AM

#

thick shoal <@810907248087400449> what mods did you have enabled? (list all)

#

sry the repply comes so late

#

u can cut this list down to just RW-Remix, MSC, POM, RegionKit and Rain Meadow and it still breaks in the same way

elder geyser May 9, 2025, 5:25 PM

#

it may be dev tools?

#

a while back i realised my consolelog was very empty w/o devtools, but that may not have been the actual cause

terse rivet May 11, 2025, 7:54 AM

#

The Issue seems to have been fixed with the last Regionkit update. Thanks for your support.

terse rivet May 14, 2025, 6:46 PM

#

guess what guys

#

it's broken again

#

although i think this time rain meadow is generally broken

#

and its not caused by regionkit

hidden latch May 14, 2025, 7:22 PM

#

yep, I think it broke in the 1.10.4 update

terse rivet May 14, 2025, 8:02 PM

#

well
