Alpha 13 modders stuff

Is it possible to add sounds to correlate with social interactions?

[skullywag]

Maybe, havent looked into it.

Added and updated a few more points in the OP.

Is it possible to add sounds to correlate with social interactions?

You could do it pretty easily with a custom InteractionWorker, I think.

Have had a few hours testing, thought id flip over to mod stuff.

Just had a major explosion on loading a save on the latest build containing mods:

Code Select Expand

Load can only be called from the main thread.
Constructors and field initializers will be executed from the loading thread when loading a scene.
Don't use this function in the constructor or field initializers, instead move initialization code to the Awake or Start function.

Not sure whats happening here, ill debug some more, but a pointer would be appreciated.

So the mod with the issue seems to be the windturbines mod, the core turbine class has "[StaticConstructorOnStartup]" at the start of its class. Do i need to do some trickery here if im extending this class?

[skullywag]

Added another one i spotted when playing with map components.

Also added the [StaticConstructorOnStartup] stuff.

[skullywag]

Also can we move this to the public testers forum, so we can gain more feedback about the modding based changes.

[skullywag]

Added Pawn_HealthTracker changes.

[skullywag]

Can we get this in the mods sub forum plz

[NoImageAvailable]

Moved this to the Help forum and stickied.

C# code:
Comps props got choped to separate class, there is no longer "One to rule them all"
Old

Code Select Expand

var affectedComp = affectedDef.GetCompProperties(typeof(CompFacility));

New

Code Select Expand

var affectedComp = affectedDef.GetCompProperties<CompProperties_Facilities>();

Glower comp is broken cant get/set its status, if on/off unless its within vanilia preset rules, so check the comp checks before and/or wait for ccl
Good days of Snake like googels are gone, now you need switches for glowing...

[Rikiki]

I found how to refresh ComGlower!
Just add these two lines to force glower update:

Code Select Expand

Find.MapDrawer.MapMeshDirty(this.Position, MapMeshFlag.Things);
Find.GlowGrid.MarkGlowGridDirty(this.Position);

To switch it on or off, you might try to set its radius to 0 before a refresh?

Code Select Expand

this.GetComp<CompGlower>().Props.glowRadius = 0;

[skullywag]

Glowers have an updateglow method that does the above, you dont need to call that stuff anymore it does it for you.

The issue of the on/off not sure.

[Rikiki]

I know but this does not work for 'dynamic' glowers (like in my alert speaker mod).

[skullywag]

Ah i see. I feel we are going to need a compGlowerX again lol
Just when we thought custom glow comps were no longer needed.

[RemingtonRyder]

Something I noticed with abstracts is that even within the same file, the <selectable> tag does not propagate down properly.

In other words, if building foo has an abstract parent B and B has an abstract parent A, and A has the <selectable>true</selectable> tag but B does not, then building foo will not be selectable.

Not sure if that's a limitation or a bug, but I thought I should make you aware of it!
