  1. Hi Jal.

     

    Two things:

    First:

    Put a line like this at the end of the file the lua code is in:

    pline("MedievalSmithing.lua loaded");

    then look for that line in console.txt to make sure it's getting loaded.

     

    Second:

    Where exactly is that file located? Full path and filename if you can.

    Nice mod, but I have a question: would it be possible to add any visual effects relating to rubble? Like for example, scattered planks and nails and random stuff (like when you chop down a door and get its parts) to make it look like an actual building collapse with debris strewn about, as opposed to looking like the whole building just disappeared.

     

    If that's not possible, I understand. There's probably only so much you can do with the game's engine at the moment. But it would be a nice touch and would make it look more realistic.  

     

    That is certainly possible. Right now it only happens with playerbuilt walls, though, because prefabs do not have any building materials in their data like playerbuilt stuff does.

    I'll think about something, but I need to investigate US building materials first. Over here in Germany, it would mostly be rocks and girders, but from what I hear about US homes, they're mostly made of plywood and hope, so I'll see how I can integrate that latter one :)

    So, if I detroy all 4 sides of wall on 2nd floor of a four storey building, would all floors above 2nd floor collapse or just 3rd floor collapse?

    All floors above will collapse. The check is recursive for all destroyed walls.

    Question 1) Did this mod works with Metalworking (as it also allows to build wall, roof, etc.) ?

    Question 2) Did this mod works with buildings/structures that mix Carpentry and Metalworking (ex. : Metal wall on the floor, wooden roof above) ?

    Question 3) Did the pre-existing walls (those not build by players) are considered support structures ?

     

    1) It should, everything that the game considers a "wall" is considered a support structure

    2) it should, see 1)

    3) yes.

    I have 3 questions for this mod:

     

    1. Would pillars be seen as support for a building?

    2. Would the entire building collapse, or just the floors above destroyed wall or pillar?

    3. Would this mod affect all buildings in the game, or just the buildings build by players?

     

    1. Yes, pillars are seen as support.

    2. Only the parts no longer supported, see the first screenshot.

    3. All bulidings, again see the first screenshot.

    what happens if there is containers and items and such on the ground in upper floors? will they fall to the ground?

     

    The containers will get destroyed, giving some building materials back. The contents will be scattered on the ground.

    Too easy to take down with sledges for MP.  

     

    That's entirely the point. If you want a base, you need to defend it. Also, you can build more supports.

    It would also be interesting to see lower level carpentry walls support less than higher level. Also do the wooden beams act as supports as well?

    I don't understand the first sentence, but wooden beams act as supports just as walls do.
