Cannibalism

[modest tendon]

Ye that i understood

I was trying to make sure it was made a bit different because i was gonna make this race drop different things in addition to palemeat

Also horns

[wind finch]

@modest tendon Have you looked at the "Dead" mod? https://mods.vintagestory.at/dead

[wind finch]

Found a typo in your racedictionary patch

You wrote dictonary

@modest tendon I appear to have gotten your mod's compatibility working. It mostly required fixing those few typos, etc, but also rearranging the format to follow the compatibility formatting seemed to make items appear when previously they did not. It seems to work without registering the entity on my end, but I'll ask you to test if this zip suffices for you on your end without the registering

(One thing you'll want to test is if entities remain after you remove cannibalism from your game. It is possible that by not having registered the entity, it may get confused and delete all entityagents instead of just the unknown corpses)

[modest tendon]

i will test that now

sorry i was dealing with some irl stuff with my apartment our manager might get fired tomorrow for her conduct

[wind finch]

No worries, there's no rush

[modest tendon]

if you want more dets it goes DEEP may also include me helping start a class action lawsuit against them

im loading up the mod now

it looks like i need to fix the horns but other than that it should be fine im gonna do the test of removing cannibalism

when i removed the mod the entities disappeared

and the only thing that didn't is the item itself

[wind finch]

Alright, but what about vanilla animals like goats?

[modest tendon]

also it works with butchering

i added the v to the end of all the names and that seems to have fixed it

the goats that aren't from mods seem to be fine now

now i have to find the name of the bighorn sheep horns in code and have that be a drop for the sheep

and the goats will get the mountain goat horns

as a drop until i can make a horns model and item mod for shedding horns in the mod proper

im off to make and fix the models for the sheep and goat

[wind finch]

Alrighty, let me know if anything breaks!

[modest tendon]

ok

i will send a version that has a fixed lang file so you can use it as a tutorial space i will remove everything other than the models and so that its easier to explain to people you can add comments in the code by doing this

//this is a comment that will not affect the code

as that works in C++ and C# also works here too

[lofty flint]

Glad you like it!

[wind finch]

Would you be willing to collaborate so that our mods can have better compatibility? I feel like Dead does a lot of what I wanted Cannibalism to do, except having unique drops by race / palemeat, etc, and I have a lot of ideas I wanted to do that could benefit greatly from your code, such as actual coffins and burial mechanics, as well as mummification

[modest tendon]

how does this look good for like someone picked up the body and threw it back down

im using some body disposal images from hitman

the game

[wind finch]

Looks pretty good

[modest tendon]

im running the first test with goats now and the sheeps new drops

they both work im working on texture fixes now for adding eyes

textures broke on the goats legs

im gonna fix that before release

im gonna use a different texture for them both as well

i forgot the eyes have emissive textures on them

[modest tendon]

my test world died

[modest tendon]

it was very old i made it in like version 1.16 im suprised it lasted that long

i cannot seem to get the horns to drop from skinning on the hooks even tried setting it as a skinning reward like the mod does for a few animals

i mean its fine for now

[wind finch]

The draicor bodies drop horns, so I know it's possible

[modest tendon]

Is it using the skinning reward field or is it an item from the main cannibalism patch

I left the code in the mod its up on my profile now if you want to take a look

[wind finch]

I think it was just as a drop, that way you'll still get it potentially if you just do a field harvest. I don't quite remember though, and I'm heading to bed now

[modest tendon]

Im headed to bed myself

Its 1:37am

[wind finch]

Sleep well, then

[modest tendon]

@wind finch got a really big bug

this happens when the goat or the sheep turn to rot

its starts spamming the logs

[lofty flint]

yeah, that sounds like a good idea

[modest tendon]

it seems to be an issue with the body transitioning to the rotten state

[wind finch]

Definitely looks like it. It looks like it's trying to transition into something that doesn't exist

[modest tendon]

which makes no sense

it should be transitioning into the models rotten state fine

[wind finch]

Well, have you looked at the transition properties? Maybe the name is mis-spelled?

[modest tendon]

i will now but i dont think its mispelled

there is a missing part not mispelling

ok i think that fixed it im gonna check

yep that fixed it

when i was doing the mappings for the sheep and the goat i missed one line that was deadsheepv instead of deadvintagesheepv

ok so one more thing when making the patch people will need a grid patch for crafting the body into rot in the crafting grid

[wind finch]

Yeah, unfortunately that's how butchering's bodies work

[modest tendon]

im trying to make fix in my mod now to make them craft into 16 rot

got one

it uses 1 durability off the knife

{
"ingredientPattern": "S,D",
"width": 1,
"height": 2,
"shapeless": true,
"ingredients": {
"S": {
"type": "item",
"code": "vintagegoat:deadvintagesheepv-hairless--rotten"
},
"D": {
"type": "item",
"code": "game:knife-",
"isTool": true,
"toolDurabilityCost": 1
}
},
"output": {
"type": "item",
"code": "game:rot",
"quantity": 16
}
}

this is the code for it

better yet im gonna send this as a file because discord seems to have broke some of that

[wind finch]

Let me know if you'd prefer to communicate elsewhere / want me to not ping you, etc.

I was mostly thinking a good way to do compatibility is to disable my mod's corpse system in favour of yours if your mod is present, and make sure your Dead corpses drop the Cannibalism items based on their race (if any). Optionally have your corpses decay into the simplistic carcasses from my mod, lots of configs to toggle these options.

PS: I know your mod has player skins that retain player skin colour, but can those skins be tanned / used for anything? I'd love to know how you managed those, because players would always prefer seeing items that match their model rather than generic placeholders

[wind finch]

@lofty flint Please let me know if you have a preferred means of communication

[lofty flint]

You can dm but I will warn you I'm travelling for a week so I will not be too available 😁
