[A16] Psychology (2017-5-14)

[System.Linq]

So hey, is it possible to see characters' sexuality listed anywhere? The Kinsey scale is a really useful simplification that applies to this situation incredibly well, but it's annoying me that it doesn't seem to be visible.

You can find it in the save file if you edit it, and it will be revealed by therapy sessions in future versions. In the meantime, don't you know it's impolite to ask?

Not really sure what's going on, but this error pops up when attempting to create a world. I assume it has something to do with Psychology not interacting well with mods that add factions, based on what little I can read of it.

It's possible. What faction mod did you use and do you have the latest version?

[LycanBlackpaw]

I've got a couple...Let me post my mod list. Off the top of my head it's just Orassans, the Medieval Times factions, and the Call of Cthulu factions.

[System.Linq]

The mod at large appears to be the Orassans, likely because they add a custom alien race and don't appear to use HugsLib. I have no problem generating a map with Medieval Times or Call of Cthulhu, and Orassans works fine with Psychology off. I recommend you disable the Orassans mod until I can look into the problem.

e: It appears that Orassans uses a custom pawn type, and I missed a null check when instantiating pawn sexuality. The error has been fixed.

So hey, is it possible to see characters' sexuality listed anywhere? The Kinsey scale is a really useful simplification that applies to this situation incredibly well, but it's annoying me that it doesn't seem to be visible.

You can find it in the save file if you edit it, and it will be revealed by therapy sessions in future versions. In the meantime, don't you know it's impolite to ask?

Eh, it is for some people? It shouldn't be. I typically prefer it when guys know not to hit on me and any lesbians in the room are aware I might be an option. It's to my benefit to reveal that information when queried, and the only real alternative is to hit on every girl that interests me just in case she's gay and not telling me. Asking seems more impolite, personally~

More on point, though, I would prefer it if you gave the option of making it visible. Every other data point you'd want to know about a given pawn is made openly available, so it doesn't really jive well with the existing game to hide their sexuality. It makes sense if you hide traits as well, but that doesn't sound at all enjoyable, so hopefully you'd include an alternate version that leaves everything visible anyway.

[System.Linq]

When therapy is implemented, traits will be hidden until revealed through therapy. That will of course be toggleable in the settings. At present, I simply didn't feel like detouring or reflecting anything that would allow me to display one line of text on the screen for the convenience of a handful of users. I recommend you look in the save file if you must know; either way, hang tight and it will be integrated into the GUI better.

[Kyna Tiona]

Ah, okay. I guess for some reason I thought it would be easier than that, but then I'm reminded that GUIs are routinely a mess.

[System.Linq]

It is difficult because I added an entirely new dimension to the game that isn't part of any other system. That means I have to either detour an existing tab to draw the text on (ew!) or create my own from scratch (huge pain). Both are time-consuming and not necessary to the functionality, so I left them out in the initial implementation.

[Kyna Tiona]

Whoa, gross. Given the absurd number of fields in the general information tab, I'd just assumed adding arbitrary fields was a straightforward matter. Suddenly I don't want to think about what the back end of that tab looks like...

Updated to 2016-12-28 v4. Mainly bugfixes.

[System.Linq]

Updated to 2016-12-29. Fixed problems with romance methods not being detoured properly, resulting in pawns not learning each others' sexualities or using Psychology romance chances. Also tweaked anxiety values.

[Zakhad]

I updated like 15 minutes ago, and I'm getting systemNullReferenceExceptions causing fps death. (I don't know how else to describe it ) Would you like a log, save or a modlist? (I have 20 or so mods) Psychology was working perfectly fine before the update.

I had a pawn with the trait, and now it seems to have disappeared. Anxiety that is.

Edit: After a while the fps death disappears (I assume this is due to anxiety wearing off?)

[attachment deleted by admin due to age]

[System.Linq]

The Anxiety trait was removed and re-implemented as a health problem. This can cause errors on older saves but they shouldn't be problematic. I recommend you save again and load it, that might fix the missing trait.

If not, please post the log.

[Kufitaah]

I had a problem with the rest detour, JobGiver_GetRest.GetPriority , which I thought was because I had heavy sleepers or something, but I started a world with just a pawn and nothing related to sleep in traits and it was the same. The error log gets filled up like 1 error/second (So just a big red flashy screen that doesn't let me play at all) and drops my fps while it's doing it (which I tried letting it pass, but it seems endless)

Right now I'm updating to 2016-12-29 to see if that fixes it, but if it doesn't, I'll post more data.

[Zakhad]

My error for the more part seems to have gone, a few bad references (Probably due to how you changed things) but it seems to be playing as normal I'll report back if anything happens, thanks for the update / help

[Kufitaah]

Indeed, as soon as I updated the rest thing was gone. It just gave me a warning with Anxiety but I didn't have anyone with it so it's k.
Working fine!
