Ludeon Forums

Hi RimWorld Modding Community !!!

I have setup a Slack space ==> rimworldmod.slack.com

I hope/want it to be a place where RimWorld modders can gather and live-chat to help each others out  in a more direct way (But i'm not thinking it should be a replacement of the forum at all, it's another communication channel :p ).
My secret expectation is to see us all work together on a megamod ^^

If someone's one square away from you you're guaranteed to hit him (without accuracy checks) but if he walks a single square away from you you're way more likely to miss

If a pawn carries another pawn you're instantly more likely to hit the carrier
Holy shit according to the code you're 90% less likely to be hit if you carry a squirrel
I'm gonna try this right now

"Gadgets" already in action :

   
• Live notification of updates on Tynan's Changelog (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ma3kFSDZHA4aE_7SSw8CyKCccWF4Dfj0KDQ_A8UB-hI/pub)
• Live notification of Tynan Tweets (https://twitter.com/TynanSylvester)
• Live count (http://rimworldmod-slackin.herokuapp.com/badge.svg) + Autoinvite (http://rimworldmod-slackin.herokuapp.com/)
• Some crazy bots

oooh i freaking love slack (and you slackbot!) count me in. PM incoming.

done :)

Just to add a quick tip for using slack, pin your tab in chrome (or whatever), then when you open your browser insta slack!

Chrome gives me a warning when I try to goto the site you linked (www.rimworldmod.slack.com)...
===

www.rimworldmod.slack.com normally uses encryption to protect your information. When Chrome tried to connect to www.rimworldmod.slack.com this time, the website sent back unusual and incorrect credentials. Either an attacker is trying to pretend to be www.rimworldmod.slack.com, or a Wi-Fi sign-in screen has interrupted the connection. Your information is still secure because Chrome stopped the connection before any data was exchanged.

You cannot visit www.rimworldmod.slack.com right now because the website uses HSTS. Network errors and attacks are usually temporary, so this page will probably work later.

take off the www. Its http://rimworldmod.slack.com

And sadly i can't automatize the signin process so you have to send me a PM with valid mail in order for me to send you a login invitation

Haha

Working on this ==> https://levels.io/slack-typeform-auto-invite-sign-ups/

I've send 5 invitations only for now ;)

Kaptain,

should edit your original message with the URL and remove the www portion so others won't fall into the same issues I did.


Also, PM incoming...

Invitation send.

And i corrected the OP. Sorry i haven't catch it was my bad ;)

Pm incoming

I've set a form in place to gather your email for registration. Much more simple than respond to all those PMs ^^

https://kaptainkavern.typeform.com/to/JNBrri

We now are 8 registered in it. Some interesting conversations happened. People help each other. C'est beau... I've learned much more about modding in one hour listening other than by one day by myself ^^
+ I just send you an invite Tynan ;)

Check the OP, lolpdated ^^

Haha just found this (https://github.com/rauchg/slackin) :

Quoteslackin

A little server that enables public access to a Slack server. Like Freenode, but on Slack.

Done.

Come join us we still have cakes :p

plus we may need help. By dint of tinkering with some old AI Core code source and playing with squirrels voodoo trinkets, i'm afraid we have unleashed some form of scary "pre transcendent" life form.

Yay for cake! Also i am in to see if anything i can pick up :)

Same here  :(

@skullywag: I'll send a PM your way, if it's not too much trouble.

Done Loki. Ill see if I can sort out a better way of getting in shortly.

Hey guys.Someone called Fluffy (l2032) told me that I can get help here.So, I want make a mod for my personal use that let me spawn colonists from hmm hydroponic or custom work table.
I added my mod as attachment.It shows in hydroponic but doesn't spawn colonists. :< Can you help me?
:-[

Uh... xD I think he meant inside the actual chat, not the forum post, as you could always just ask in it's own post if you posted on the forums.

He gave me link to this post.

Yeah, the first page is a sign up page for the slack, which is often used for help with mods as a large part of the modding community is in there. You're free to not join, but this isn't a help thread.

Free to not join?  ???Nevermind, im done here :/.Nobody can help me.Bye.

This makes me laugh, honestly.

It makes me a little bit sad inside :P

For future reference; Slack is a website for teams, has loads of handy features, the primary one being a persistant chat (much like IRC). There's a rimworld modding team on slack with currently about 70 modders in it. It's in the chat that you might actually get help, not in this thread.

Lol

Is the slack still open ? I've sent a request but got no response.

PM Sent :).

Are there people in the Slack ?
Who should I contact to get an invite ? :)

Im the contact, PM me your email and the reason for wanting to join, I have to be a little more careful about who we let in simply due to the numbers of people now involved, the slack is a place to mod not to chat to modders.

Is this for experienced modders only?

Quote from: WolfKing on July 18, 2016, 02:32:41 AMIs this for experienced modders only?

It's not just for experience modders.  It's intended for active modders who are actually working on mods and have ideas they want to share or need help with their projects.  We don't want any lollygaggers who just want to chat with modders.

(http://blog.zacscy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/NoLollygagging.jpg)

I will add all those that have pmed me so far shortly. Not near a pc currently. Im not ignoring you honest.

Can i ask for invite? I like mods/modding and working as a programmer. Don't have my own mods but like using it and maybe can help someone with making one.

Need to be actively working on mods. Sorry.

Aww I am sad that the rules changed... :(
I will still need to be in slack cause wivex needs me for testing in RA.

Still counts as working on a mod.

Can I come in Skully? Plz?

I'm working on a mod, trust me...

I invited you already. Did you not get the mail.

Opps, it was in the trash folder.
Must have thought it was spam with the name "Taco from slack."

Would appreciate an invite if possible. Email is [email protected]
Thanks

Only taking in active modders, what you working on?

Can I come? I have mods now :-p

I would love an invite.  I am currently putting together my booster pack 1 which consists of a weapon, shield, armor, and potentially some other structures all geared toward lower tech and tribal vibe.

[email protected]

Could I have an invitation? I don't have any mods to maintain of my own, but I wanted to see if I could assist Fluffy with his Colony Manager. He told me to join the Rimworld modding Slack so I can talk to him if I run into problems.

Email is [email protected]

mmmmhm can I get an invite without posting my email in public? I'd rather send it to someone through PM.

I was going to try my hand with some creatures, but it's all good. My first attempt was rather horrible. Will work on things a bit more before trying to be active here.

PM skullywag! he's very dependable and not creepy at all

Or PM as well. The most reliable way : PM both of us ;)

Would like an invite as well.

We need an email in order to send you an invitation. PM me or Skullywag.

Ii is written just above :p

redone OP

Til Im an active modder

damn i always took you for a ram ;)

I've added this message because of this : https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=14501.msg234684#msg234684

Would love to join. Sent you a pm :).

I requested an invite using the typeform registration on the first page, not sure if anyone responds to it or not. My email is [email protected] and I'm looking to work on a mod for enhanced planning. I'm a software engineer by trade without a lot of C# experience.

For anyone looking at this. We are now on discord. PM me for an invite link for now, until i figure out how to promote it properly. only modders need apply. If you arent actively modding im sorry but we wont invite, once you have a mod out feel free to PM me. This is simply to prove you have some fundemental underatanding of how to mod rimworld.

I would like to get working on a long term project, but need help, because i have no modding experience whatsoever, would be nice if you could add me :)

I believe most have moved to the Discord, you'll find a stickied thread in the General sub-forum that contains a link.
