Changelog So Far

Thought I'd post this up here for folks not in the discord. :) It'll give you an idea where the mod is currently headed.

- Traders have an invisible "faction" stat, and will teach you skills...

Progress Update

Realised I haven't let you folks know what's going on with DF, so thought i'd post a quick progress update.

Right now, I think the code base is good. I'm waiting on some other modders to upd...

6 hours...

That's how long i've worked on DF today. I got access to the streamer build and i've been working on converting everything over.

Took 2 hours just to get the C# scripts done, the other 4 was...

Vehicle Mods!

Got some ACTUAL vehicle mods working!

The downside is this new system doesn't work for the tank size increase, the armor mod (have an alternative for this) or storage increases.

But t...

Ok, I lied

May of had an idea.

May have been testing it.

It works. ;)

All Quiet

Afraid I don't have too much news for you folks. Because I'm currently on b122 of A19, there isn't much work I can actually do on the mod.

So myself and the testers have been... well... just...

Watch Update

 Made a harmony patch for the player.  World time is now passed to a cvar, which can then be "read" by a buff.

The watch is now a mod item that goes on gloves, then applies a buff...

Change of Patreon Benefits, thanks The Un-Fun Pimps...

 Another mod creator has warned me of a change in policy that The Fun Pimps (or The Un-Fun Pimps) have made to modding their game. To make things easier, I will copy and paste it here.

...

A19 progress

So, taking a small break from DF to work on a side project. Which is good, because it allows me to experiment with code and such and not worry about breaking DF.

One of the ideas I had is no...

New Menu!

I know it's not much, but I can share this safely. I figured it was time to replace the menu image. :)

Why am I so quiet...

So... I posted this in the discord, but heads up for everyone here as well.

Things are quiet with me and the mod atm, and I realised that might worry some of you. Am I still alive? Am I stil...

Monthly reminder!

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. It's Wednesday morning here in the UK, May starts on Friday.

With everything currently going on in the world, people losing their jobs, having limite...

Progress update

Things are progressing, but slowly.

Basically, the lockdown had the effects I expected. The wife isn't doing too well mentally, so I'm spending a lot of time to keep her entertained and as h...

The Real Life Monster

So, my country is now in Lockdown as of about 2 hours ago.

I'm fine. We have plenty of food in and going out to do shopping is considered acceptable. I can also go out to get my wifes meds, ...

Later than promised... but DEV B2 is out!

So I meant to do this a week or two ago, but the brain didn't want to co-operate on coding and I had RL stuff to do. However, here's the patch notes and a download link for non-discord users. :) 2020-03-15 22:17:24 +0000 UTC View Post

Trader Overhaul

I know I put this in the discord, but thought i'd better post it in here too.

This is a WIP of the trader overhaul. The idea is that each trader will have specific skills and recipes they ca...

The 10 Slot Toolbelt Bug

You know how in DF, slots 9 and 10 of the toolbelt don't "remember" items properly?

Fixed it. ;)

Potential V2.51 DEV B2 soon!

There's 2 things left I want to do before I push out a test build. I'm hoping to get that done this weekend.

The first one is fishing. it's more complicated than I expected, so it's taking a...

Planning

So now i'm starting to feel a little better, myself and the testers have been talking. Right now, these are the things we're planning for 2.51 or whatever it's going to be called.

1) Slow do...

18.4 and plans.

As i'm sure folks noticed, 18.4 experimental came out Saturday/Sunday (It was out when I woke up 3am on sunday, so god knows when it REALLY came out). Obviously that has thrown a tiny wrench in my ...

The Sound of Silence

So for anyone not in the discord, I apologise for being quiet the past few days.

A18.3b4 went into stable so I went into full "I need to get this out" mode. DF V2.5 Experimental B1 is now re...

A18.3b4 and the mod.

So A18.3b4 came out last night.

DF got updated immedately, been testing it today, pushed a dev build to the testers and patreons in the discord.

Glad that didn't take as long as I tho...

Rest time

Ok, so being honest... i've had the flu since just after new year... and I've been pushing through it to try and ignore it.

Now i'm definitely paying for it, but i'm also starting to do bett...

Hydroponics!

 It's a very basic implementation, but it works. :)

The idea is that you craft special seeds from a crop + the super corn. That gives you a seed which doesn't require light in the sense ...

Irritation and Irrigation

This has seriously taken me about 8 hours of coding to get the bloody thing to work.

But DF now has a basic irrigation system. :) Plants will still check for water within 4 blocks, but they ...

Happy Holidays!

Where ever you are, and however you celebrate, I wish you a happy holidays!

It's currently in testing, but DF now works on 18.3. I even managed to fix the trader NRE issue so the band-aid fi...

DF 2.4 Stable and A18.3E

I know I gave you guys early access to stable via the discord, but it's now out for everyone! I did an extra 5 fixes over the version you guys have, but it's nothing major. :)

If you want me...

The Plan For Stable

So build 5 is out, and it fixed quite a lot. Mostly all I want to do now is add perk requirements (for the levels) to perk descriptions. That way, if folks get the "Disabled by status effect" text,...

Progress Update

So being ill made me take a few days to just relax. Kinda annoying, because I didn't get as much done as I wanted. Now A18.2 is in stable, so what I wanted to do for Build 4 is getting delayed. Tha...
