[A17] SeveralPuffins mods for A17

[kenmtraveller]

I recall 3 bugs:
1) on crash maps with pawns that could be rescued, often rescued pawns would get into a wierd state where it would say they joined you but they actually wouldnt
2) on some generated maps (I saw it on the crashed ship map and also the castle map) the game would enter into a state where it would autopause on every tick (without pause on exception being set).
3) on one map (I think it was a muffalo stampede encounter generated on an overland journey) I got a crash, and at reload time was unable to load my save game.

You may have a mod incompatibility that is causing these bugs and crashes. How many mods do you have?

It was quite awhile ago, I'm not sure, but it was just recon and discover and a couple of other mods.  One featured enhanced mechanoids and some better turrets.
I was not the only person reporting issues 1) and 2).

@kenmtraveller
I never bumped into that, because i never tried to recruit the rescued pawns, i just patched them up and left them be xD
It might be an incompatibility though, i wouldn't be surprised if weird interactions pop up from mods that changes guests for instance.

I have been getting slews of weird errors under certain circumstances when loading Razzle Dazzle into my mod loadout.  In one situation, I would get them if Fluffy's Colony Manager is loaded before Razzle Dazzle, and in another I would get them if Medieval Times is loaded in the same loadout as Razzle Dazzle at all.

I know little about RW modding, but I believe I may have discovered the problem, and it's easy to fix.

In the mod's RazzleDazzleA17/defs/ThingDefs/RAZ_Buildings.xml file, he defines a base ThingDef for his other buildings called "PerformanceBuildingBase".

As far as I've seen poking around in the thingdefs for other mods, every Base must have the Abstract="True" tag in its ThingDef line.  PerformanceBuildingBase does not have this tag:

  <ThingDef Name="PerformanceBuildingBase" ParentName="BenchBase" Class="RazzleDazzle.PerformanceVenueDef">

However, when I add it so it looks like this:

  <ThingDef Name="PerformanceBuildingBase" ParentName="BenchBase" Class="RazzleDazzle.PerformanceVenueDef" Abstract="True">

...  the errors disappear and I have no problem running Razzle Dazzle alongside the other mods.

So, if you're getting these weird errors (most of them involving meat) when Razzle Dazzle is loaded, this is possibly the problem.

Does Asexual trait from Romance Diversified mod locks all the romance activity or just makes romance rarer?

[SpaceDorf]

per definition it should shut down all romance activities.

The mod "RazzleDazzle" is causing my game to HEAVILY drop the game's FPS when I right-click an item with a pawn selected and the contect menu shows up. As soon as I removed your mod from my load order this issue never occurred again. I did several tests with this mod and the results were consistent with this one being the one causing this issue.

Here's the mod list I was using at the time:

RazzleDazzle never worked for me, as far as allowing performances.
I presume this is due to my mod list, which is well over 200 mods.

And yet within the last week, it started working.

Weird.

Did you clear out an ancient crypt by any chance?

[mvargus]

I've really enjoyed using this mod in A17, I'm hoping it will be updated for A18.  Having the ability to perform plays really added something to the game.  Made the colony seem more alive.

Come to think of it, I DID sweep out an Ancient Danger.
Weird.

Yep, that was the ancient danger bug affecting this mod that comes from A17 itself. The ancient danger bug is where you have an ancient crypt somewhere on your map that has not been cleared or discovered and is causing your colonists to not have any gathering type of events such as a party. This includes the performances from RazzleDazzle as this is considered a gathering event. This bug has been fixed in A18.

Would love to see an A18 version of recon and discovery. I really liked being able to visit npc faction bases without having to attack them and making them hostile. The extra missions were real fun too.

[JimJammer89]

Will there be B18 updates for your mods soon?
