[rocky geode]

Can someone give me the id of road authority so i can also increase incomes for my tollbooths

[rocky geode]

@eternal lake, your suburb use lua functions to index a new animation right? I forgot the name of the function and i couldn't find it now, or maybe it was removed that's why it broke your plugin?

[eternal lake]

since when is my plugin broken?

[dark dawn]

Hello, this fences plugin did not work, would you have an idea of ​​the bug, please?

hm finally it's ok, the creator told me he saw the error

[rocky geode]

The last update

You said at ci server

[steel verge]

whose plugins are broken now

https://media.tenor.com/ZUVXG4GnzfoAAAAM/spongebob-square-pants-spongebob.gif

[eternal lake]

???

I don't recall ever saying something like that

a screenshot would clear things up

[rocky geode]

Im assuming, one was your suburb

Also @steel verge where is the function to add code for draft, like add([["animation:"[{},...]]]) forgot the name, is it removed?

[terse void]

draft.append

[steel verge]

yes

[crude crescent]

r/facepalm

[eternal lake]

it was a game issue and has been resolved in, like, a day

[terse void]

pretty sure all the issues we encountered are fixed already

[hexed coral]

Does anyone know what's up with water flickering when using shaders

I thought it was just because of high contrast but apparently it's not

[terse void]

maybe cuz its average luminancy changes with the animation

idk

[hexed coral]

I thought of that too but the screenshot is taken with atmosphere shaders low contrast option

Which almost doesn't change anything

Maybe it's a game bug or something wrong with my calculations in shader

But the shader's code is actually so basic that I'm not sure

And there'd be plenty of other bugs if something was wrong with the shader

Hey guys, I've created a bus to spawn around a building (a bus terminus I created). I've created the bus png as required but it's showing this error while opening the game...

This is the bus png

And this is the first time in creating this kind of a plugin pls help ;-;

I created four buses...

Okay

Which json?

The bus'?

Okayy

Oki

sure

[cedar stone]

You didn't specify 4 frames in the json

Your drawing is fine, but the code isn't

https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=2346

[teal cove]

do i need to split it into 4 images?

[cedar stone]

Nope

[teal cove]

i actually followed the same link to do the plugin

oh wait

[quartz crystal]

send me the json and I'll try to fix it

oh wait a second

the bus frames are in jpeg form and has no transparent background

• Very low quality

[teal cove]

Ty I actually fixed it

I forgot to add the count in the frames

[teal cove]

It actually shows up like that here in discord bcs of its small size

[earnest pendant]

    "type":"park",
    "frames":[{"x":0,"y":0,"w":16,"h":46,"handle y":9,"count":9}],

[low shoal]

width and height needs to be same

or idk thats what the error is saying

[earnest pendant]

my file has 9 frames and does 288x46

due to trees

so what i must put as values

[eternal lake]

you are simply missing width and height attributes

[earnest pendant]

okay but

it's 1x1 parks

what i have to put as attributes?

16x46?

[eternal lake]

if its 1x1 you put 1 in both

simple as that

[earnest pendant]

alright

imma try this

okay it literally changes nothing

    "border frames":[{"x":0,"y":0,"w":1,"h":1,"handle y":9,"count":9}],```

[eternal lake]

because thats not how you use it

please read advanced tags for building plugins

first, "height" and "h" are different things

second, h is for frames and is meant to be used in a frame object

[hexed coral]

(you can find advanced tags page from a link in pinned messages)

[eternal lake]

second, height is for buildings and is meant to be used in a building object

same for w and width

[earnest pendant]

so

i have to change w and h by height and width

or add them?

[eternal lake]

?

please read what I've said

w, h is in pixels

[earnest pendant]

i mean

    "border frames":[{"x":0,"y":0,"width":1,"height":1,"handle y":9,"count":9}],```

or

   "height":1,
   "frames":[{"x":0,"y":0,"w":1,"h":1,"handle y":9,"count":9}],
   "border frames":[{"x":0,"y":0,"w":1,"h":1,"handle y":9,"count":9}],```

[hexed coral]

Second

(wait why does park have border frames)

[eternal lake]

except w, h isnt 1 in your case

and yes, that too

[earnest pendant]

idk i just took from the ground json template

[eternal lake]

ground is different from buildings

[hexed coral]

You should've checked documentation on making buildings

Not just copy-paste the code

[eternal lake]

his explains your issues

[earnest pendant]

the png size

so 288x46

?

[eternal lake]

its defines a single frame size

not file size

please just read the documentation

[earnest pendant]

okay

finally that works

thank you so much!

[eternal lake]

you're welcome

[earnest pendant]

i just don't have them in the park category despise of the mention

But it doesn't really matter

[eternal lake]

make sure its type park

[earnest pendant]

it is

but i have them in the terrain\asphalt category

for no reason

[eternal lake]

you probably used a template since you just copied the code

but I cant say much withput actually seeing it

[earnest pendant]

imma remove the template

[earnest pendant]

@eternal lake

^

[terse void]

well where are they

the width and heifht

the game is asking for em

[earnest pendant]

now for some reason it asks for edge borders

meh that pisses me off

im gonna segregate each different texture

instead of making one single file

It's too complicated

[earnest pendant]

And now when i'm using 4 different files, it says "your ground must be 32 width" 💀

eh i don't understand anything

it worked very well before and now it displays this ☠️

[charred harness]

I think you just use the same frames you used on border frames

Even lobby doesn't understand that(apparently)

[earnest pendant]

lmfao

ah yes

[charred harness]

Yes

[eternal lake]

since when are you making a ground plugin

I thought you wanted a park?

[earnest pendant]

i do both

[eternal lake]

then simply use the template

the one provided in the tutorial

[earnest pendant]

i don't see the ground tutorial in the getting started

wait nvm

[eternal lake]

getting started is not a full index of plugin tutorials

https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?t=12176

[eternal lake]

also this is so old it's not even relevant anymore

[eternal lake]

of course it couldn't

it doesn't exist

[hollow pawn]

How do I fix this anyone

[quartz crystal]

send me the plugin

I'll resolve it

[cedar stone]

Reduce the size of the image

[full mural]

how do i solve this problem?

when going around a curve the textures get buggy

[rocky geode]

probably wrong frame alignments

[full mural]

and how do i solve it?

[rocky geode]

wait is it your plugin?

or complaining someone's work

but in that case it is using wrong width for each rotation

[full mural]

I am trying to make a plugin of an Argentine freight train

[rocky geode]

theres a wrong encode for the width of each frames and alignments

[full mural]

And how do I go about correcting it?

[rocky geode]

so others can help also

[full mural]

    "id":"CDD5A1",
    "type":"car",
    "frame":[{"bmp": "CDD5A1.png","count": 4,"h": 28,"w": 37}],
    "frag normal":false,
    "flag train":true,
    "speed":2,
    "v2":true
},{
    "id": "SpawnDeCDD5A1",
    "width":1,
    "height":1,
    "type": "railway station",
    "frame":[{"bmp": "CDD5A1spawner.png","count": 4,"w": 32}],
    "draw ground": true,
    "needs road": false,
    "influence passenger train": 30,
    "car spawner": [{"targets": ["SpawnDeCDD5A1"],
        "cars": ["CDD5A1"],
        "count": 3,
        "radius": 10}],
    "capacity": 10
}]```

[rocky geode]

that "w" seems not accurate

"w" was talking about the length of each frame in pixel

in your case you used single length for all the frames which is wrong

[full mural]

this is the locomotive

[rocky geode]

you need to know how long was your frame each rotation

avoid using "count" for frames that has different length, separate each frame object instead

like ```
"frames":[
{ "bmp": "exampl.png", "x":0, "w":16, "h":8 },
{ "bmp": "exampl.png", "x":16, "w":16, "h":8 },
...
]

[rocky geode]

As .84 about supporting car spawner to target bus station does it mean it'll also work for car spawning using lua?

[hollow flax]

lua car spawner is depends on the coordinates. so, it's not a problem i think.

[rocky geode]

Maybe, however i realize there's no function to check whether a road has bus stops so i think a bit complicated if it works so

Anyway how does "deco" road attr work? I tried
"deco": "rdc id"
No errors but nothing happened

Maybe you can help me here @eternal lake

I wish it can support multiple deco an array of it but gives me an error :lol:

[eternal lake]

I will try to answer when I'm on my machine

Thank you

no idea how it works, play around

I'm not aware of those

I'm pretty sure you can get those with debug mode in the game

[vague scarab]

How do i make diagonal road deco?

[earnest pendant]

Hello everyone, how do you make your own plugins?

[charred harness]

You simply just make separate frames for the diagonals that you can use for the animations, and then put their indices on frames 3,6,9,and 12, or the curves

[low shoal]

Check pins there are some useful tips there
Basically you draw on a pixel art app and freate a json file with a json creating app. Thats pretty much it mostly

Well pins in #plugin-discussion not here

Include a bridge and a tunnel, tbh this kind of thing seems like a bug, that button would not be showing up without those frames

[rocky geode]

When the building is at that frames*

[eternal lake]

yes, whatever you want to call it

[rocky geode]

But that's not necessary if you just want the animation to be visible on all frames

Lol

[amber willow]

3 pixel = 2 meters irl for buildigs
2 pixel = 1 meters irl for some creators

[amber willow]

aight

[rocky geode]

Theotown folks are now 2m tall irl

[amber willow]

lmao

[vague scarab]

Meanwhile most door in my country are just 1.8 meters tall

[amber willow]

Im asking cuz I wanna calculate the height of the Tokyo Skytree in pixels

[amber willow]

okay based on the 3px = 2m irl, the height of the Skytree in pixels is 951px

meaning the Tokyo Skytree is theoretically possible

even without the use of animations(altho it'll take up a lot of space)

doing it with the 2px = 1m irl however would result in it exceeding the height limit of 1000px

[vague scarab]

2px = 1 meter is normally used on vehicles.

Just like leaf's truck plugin i guess

[tacit sundial]

dang seems like it’ll a big job

dk if anyone gonna do it tho it’ll look mad nice it if does work out

[hexed coral]

3px - 1.8m would be more accurate

[hexed coral]

Wdym possible

Even really tall stuff are possible

It has to be really huge to not fit in texture space

I remember putting an absurdly huge image of the moon in theotown

[amber willow]

It's cuz I thought there was a height limit of 1000 pixels without animation

[charred harness]

You mean putting some sort of overlay in your original sprite to make it look like the night version of it? To help draw night lights?

[idle ridge]

Hey im new, i downloaded the residential house plugin but why doesnt it change?? Thank you

[cedar stone]

Wdym with "change"?

[cosmic dragon]

Excuse me

What to do with it was downloading ancient mesopotamia from forum but game says this

What should I do?

[cedar stone]

Looks like you're missing a category need by the plugin

Check if you have downloaded everything needed and installed correctly

If that'd the case, then contact the plugin creator

[cosmic dragon]

Ok

I think I forget to take the basic one ,but now I try to do it but

Hey I downloaded all and did all right still game tells to delete that plugin lol

[lime rapids]

Oh

@cosmic dragon show me your folder

[cosmic glade]

Hello, I'm currently having a problem with the noir shader plugin

It doesn't let me open the game

[low shoal]

@hexed coral

[hexed coral]

wait huh

it worked on pc and for the26

[low shoal]

it worked for rtobby

yeah i could try it out ig

[hexed coral]

it doesn't have round?

[rocky geode]

All shaders worked on me

[rocky geode]

Any debugging techniques on shaders?

Like Debug.toast

No

Also there's no way to make diff shader for water

What's in the shader would be applied on all pixel

[cosmic dragon]

Folder?

[low shoal]

plugin folder

[lime rapids]

Yes, but if you want to speed up things, Anciv is in store now

[dark dawn]

Just don't use shaders

[dark dawn]

🧌

[iron nest]

As a side note, that actually looks insanely cool! Like gazing upon the stars in outerspace.

[rocky geode]

I meam there is

I was wondering how do you make plugins?

[grand spruce]

Check the pins of #plugin-discussion

[rocky geode]

What's wrong with the composition tool i thought i can make an easy copy of this intersection

[white pike]

Its been a few months and the staff still haven't pinned the link to the plugin creator

[charred harness]

Please pin this

[charred harness]

Nice

[terse void]

[dark dawn]

Ok

But dont depin it please

[unique moss]

Thanks!

See ya

[solemn lion]

Hm not sure

[rocky geode]

You can't :trl:

That's probably a graphical issue just adjust the line 1px up

[rocky geode]

Then that's skill issue

[charred harness]

Oof

Just put it 1 pixel up

Itll be fine

[rocky geode]

That's a shame you can't figure out what you need to do

[charred harness]

You didn't notice the other lane was wide than the other one

You should probably do the same effort to achieve your desire look

It's about connecting each frame to its piece to make sure everything was aligned

Don't forget to use layers you dont want to get upset when it was merged

Can somone help me? Cant get my plugin to run

Idk i always make it with pca

[unique moss]

The hell pca is?

[dark dawn]

Simple coding, tick and write stuff it will code it by itself

[eternal lake]

you haven't defined a car of id "$mmtramfront00"

or, most likely, defined it after it is used

[molten shard]

I tried using the atmosphere shader and it gives me this error

[rocky geode]

[hexed coral]

What game version do you have?

[molten shard]

[hexed coral]

[hexed coral]

But judging from my limited knowledge, you version is rather old

[hexed coral]

Wdym

[earnest pendant]

I got a problem

How do i can fix it?

[rocky geode]

I mean that toast for fragments

[hexed coral]

I think errors in code like that are always there

I saw it myself when I was fixing the problem with "round"

[rocky geode]

I said goto file manager

All phone have inbuilt file manager

[earnest pendant]

Im in the file menager

[earnest pendant]

But the heck i didnt have a "normal file menager"

[rocky geode]

Goto Android/data/info.theotown.../files/managed plugins

[earnest pendant]

Where is the heck android

[molten shard]

yep it worked, all i had to do is update

[rocky geode]

Main storage/Android

[rocky geode]

Then this and delete RGBSL_Shader.... and wait for its update

[earnest pendant]

I didnt have any "info theotown (...)"

[rocky geode]

Android>data

[earnest pendant]

Im in data

[rocky geode]

It's always at the bottom

[earnest pendant]

What do i need to do?

[rocky geode]

What's that notice says??

[earnest pendant]

"cant use this folder"

[rocky geode]

What's the button says

[earnest pendant]

"use this folder"

[rocky geode]

Click it

[rocky geode]

What's that

[earnest pendant]

Idk

[rocky geode]

It's all clear when you translate that

You're near into it

[earnest pendant]

I click something

[rocky geode]

Ok

Click ok gosh

[rocky geode]

Files/managed plugins/

[earnest pendant]

This?

[rocky geode]

Find RGBSL_Shader and delete it

[earnest pendant]

What does them doo?

[rocky geode]

That's the plugin causing error

[earnest pendant]

Ok

[rocky geode]

Just wait for the plugin update if you ever want to download it again

[earnest pendant]

I cant delete it

[rocky geode]

Why

[earnest pendant]

I clicking it and nothing goes on

[rocky geode]

Press it long, it will popup a menus 😩

I'll bet your phone gets full storage cuz you can't delete a file once in your life

[earnest pendant]

I pressed it long and nothing goes on

[rocky geode]

Use the tripple dot right above

[earnest pendant]

Still don't work

[rocky geode]

I think there's an edit option or select files

[earnest pendant]

Edit?

I only can add new folder

[rocky geode]

What this says?

[earnest pendant]

Use this folder

[rocky geode]

Tap it

[rocky geode]

Use this folder

[earnest pendant]

How?

[rocky geode]

Ok again

I think you downloaded a poor file manager

Next time download CX file manager or Zachiever

[rocky geode]

Why tf it was censored

You know i think there's a bug with that software just download another one

[earnest pendant]

Better?

[steel verge]

For crying out loud

Use the native file explorer provided by android

[rocky geode]

Oh yes that's what im.saying lately but he can't find it

[steel verge]

If you can't open native application, use this to defer opening https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.marc.files

[rocky geode]

Nice research

[earnest pendant]

What should i doo now?

[rocky geode]

I think theotown was below those drive account

[steel verge]

scroll down

[steel verge]

correct, now navigate to managed plugins

and delete the offending plugin

[rocky geode]

Damn it takes forever

No not there

[earnest pendant]

Ikr

Where the heck

[rocky geode]

Return back

To managed plugins

[earnest pendant]

Here?

[rocky geode]

That managed

[earnest pendant]

Im here

[rocky geode]

Find the offending plugin

[earnest pendant]

Ok

[lean tide]

So is this the ID of the category? Or is it something else

[rocky geode]

Yes

[lean tide]

Ok thank you

[earnest pendant]

IT works now

[rocky geode]

Review what we did and do the same way next time

I can't do it one by one even

[uncut hollow]

Can someone explain to me why SOA (sea of age) gone from plugin store?

Even I can't find that plugin at theotown website

[vague scarab]

Age of sail is not available anymore,due it's incompatibility with newer version of theotown,you need to install older version of theotown to use age of sail, that's the knowledge i know so far.

@rocky geode

[charred harness]

And you also spelt it wrong

[rocky geode]

Why im pinged

[uncut hollow]

Man.. so sad to hear that 🥲

[rocky geode]

Yeah that requires to cry

[hard drift]

[minor linden]

No problème

[hard drift]

then put it in the right channel not here

[unique moss]

Can somone tell me how to add to building monthly income?

[low shoal]

become a trusted creator. Only trusted creators can do that
you can set it negative for a monthly price though

[rocky geode]

If it's a normal commercial then it gives you a common income

[bright rain]

I think you can still do monthly income, but it's limited to 1T

Better than nothing, I guess

[rocky geode]

That -1T is a huge lie

[bright rain]

Does that not work anymore?

[rocky geode]

I tried that it just gives me an error

[bright rain]

Huh, weird

That used to be a thing. I think I used it in the nature pack at some point

Or maybe I'm just insane lol

[grand spruce]

#language-bar please

[dark dawn]

to build something on water and on land i need to add '' true '' to both, right ?

[amber willow]

yes

[dark dawn]

alr thanks you

[dark dawn]

can't be build on water...

i didn't get it

[rocky geode]

Because it needs to be set both as false

[dark dawn]

uh

i'll try so

[dark dawn]

didn't work

no

cant be built on water

i want to build it on water

on land yes

YES

and needs water what ?

and stop give me codes wich dont work

I don't trust it, it takes me 10 min each time

youre wrong btw

if i put land false it wont be built on land

i'll just make two plugins

i'll try it

but wont work for land

[vague scarab]

"needs land": false,
"needs water": false
//For a building that can be built both in water and land
"needs land": true,
"needs water":true
//For water port or something build in shore.

I've been using that too many times.

[dark dawn]

cant be built on water

all your codes didn't work

[vague scarab]

Lemme prof it.

[dark dawn]

i tried

all

ofc

i'll just use fake water

uh

can be built on land

cant be built on water

and it's the problem for all codes

no need to show

you think i lie ?

baseplates are green on land

baseplates are red on water

why you need a screen to understand this

i can send any plugin wich work like that

[vague scarab]

@dark dawn

[dark dawn]

uh

i already said that the code dont work for me

[vague scarab]

Use the prof.zip plugin for Refrence,you might just had some typo.

[dark dawn]

it is not by repeating it that I will solve the problem

[vague scarab]

Send the code on dm,if had some privileged code innit,remove it.

[dark dawn]

lmao

[dark dawn]

i tried benutzername for second time

still dont work

all i do is code with pca and modify the file code to add needs land and needs water then i replace the old code and upload

what's wrong

[vague scarab]

I don't want to be rude,but if you want the problem solved quickly,send it in dm.

[vague scarab]

Any missing/excess coma?

[dark dawn]

coma ?

[vague scarab]

, <

[dark dawn]

i make that with json

all is boolean

json genie free

[rocky geode]

||Skill issue||

Maybe your attributes has capital letter, or the worst part, you made the boolean value as string

Also i experience the latest json genie has bug

Like there is a time that it automatically put a trailling character if you saved it

Luckily i have the old version of it

I recommend to check your code as "code" Not in json genie

anyway It should be set like in genie

[dark dawn]

exactly what i did

and for saving i save it on /json folder

then i import the code to the zip file

[dark dawn]

good ?

[dark dawn]

i put '' , '' after '' false '' as there

[dark dawn]

i compressed that with manifest and frames

bruh it's worked

while it's exactly the same for json genie

[rocky geode]

Daman is that the latest QuickEdit?

Damn it already has vertical lines to trace nested structure

[vague scarab]

It's Code editor from playstore.

This one.

[rocky geode]

@vague scarab does it support custom fonts?

Cuz quick edit can use external fonts

[vague scarab]

No,but it's had tons of themes.

[rocky geode]

Trash

[vague scarab]

But I've been seen a screenshot of you using it.

[rocky geode]

Well i will stick with this, i love this Italicize font

Im using quick edit though

[vague scarab]

Acode with tons of features,which make my plugin making quicker.

[rocky geode]

Give me a patched version of it without ads, im lazy to patch it on my own

Ehhh i don't like the file tree listing looks like vcs

[vague scarab]

This android feature exist.

[rocky geode]

Is that trick from mine?

[vague scarab]

Found it on YouTube

[rocky geode]

Well im using Android 5.1 so i don't have that i will patch it on my own instead

I realized it was made by the same dev so probably external fonts are supported

[dark dawn]

lol you didn't commented it

[rocky geode]

It hasn't what a trash

[rocky geode]

It needs privileged code i think

Apply for it

Is it possible to add winter animation to a road rather than winter frames?

[eternal lake]

just like for buildings

it works in the same way, roads can hold animations too

[rocky geode]

DDoes it switch during winter?

[eternal lake]

why wouldn't it

if you provide appropriate attributes, that is

[rocky geode]

hmm idk i never tried to add winter animation before,

"winter animation ": [] is it?

[eternal lake]

"in winter": true

[rocky geode]

In winter?

[eternal lake]

"animation": [{"in winter": true, ...}]

[rocky geode]

Cool

Thanks

[eternal lake]

you're welcome

I use it all the time

[rocky geode]

I will add rain animation in winter

Ptag files

[tulip rock]

TheoTown files are located under such directories:

▪︎ Windows: C:\Users(insert username)\TheoTown
▪︎ Linux: /home/$USER/TheoTown
▪︎ MacOS: /user/TheoTown
▪︎ Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/
Reinstalling the game for Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.

Alternatively, you can access the files through in-built TheoTown file manager, accessible through the in-game menu.

You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.

[grand spruce]

So you need to use the in game file manger to move the file from your downloads to your game files

The file manager can be accessed in the menu while on the region screen

in the plugins folder

yep!

You're welcome!

Is there a way to rename disasters?

@vague scarab do you have a rail piece that is decorative as well? If you do that could probably be used to fix that issue

[eternal lake]

the easiest solution would be to just create a road decoration

I'm looking for a good plugin for cooling towers and nuclear stations on my phone. previously such a plugin was in the play store

now I can't find it

Where can I find this mod ?

[dark dawn]

Forum

Ask themax if you want to modify or use it, as it's written on orange bar

[timber shore]

to be honest, I no longer remember the password from my account

did't find

[vague scarab]

Use Contact us button if you're forgot your forum account password.

[grave sonnet]

use "forgot your password?" in the login page to reset your password

[dark dawn]

if I code this in 1×1, will the orange square still appear if I build?

[vague scarab]

You forget to properly cut it.

[dark dawn]

it's the interest

looking for a way to get things past the baseplate

[vague scarab]

Add this after bmp frames.png
"w":32

Ah I understand what you're doing now

One thing,if you proceed,it would had clipping issue

[dark dawn]

Clipping ?

[vague scarab]

Can't explain it in English.

[eternal lake]

it will be drawn if your frames are defined properly

it's not a good practice though

[dark dawn]

I'm just looking for a way to not need to do modular stuff

[eternal lake]

that's not the way.

[low shoal]

Width and height both 2 yeah

[dark dawn]

Well i'll try it anw

as for publishing this in the plugin store I think I understand the problem, but it's just for me that I'm doing this

I'd like to do this for example

thank you in advance

[grand spruce]

There should be a few!

I'd search people on the plugin store

[timber shore]

with what problems can be connected? I have a lot of mods, but not a single one that would kill compatibility with each other.
