Hydrocraft Mod


Hydromancerx

Recommended Posts

Hello Hydromancerx,

I'm sorry to bothering you but I just want to know if I can use the archery part of your mod, because I want to publish a new mod with only the archery of Hydrocraft (with simplier Recipe, replace arrowhead with sharped stone, a 2nd fletching made with newspaper, and a Recipe to break stone in 2 sharped stone)

So I ask your permission to use the lua, script, model and texture (I have ask to francogp too, but I don't know who belongs the lua property, so  i'm asking to you for starting) and like I already made this new "Compound bow" I want you to know that you will already have the future permission to take it and add it in Hydrocraft (if you want it, for sure) and maybe create him a Recipe with carbon fiber or things you have add with Hydrocraft ;) take a look:

So I'm trying to use my new solar generator to power a small section of the mall where my base is, and I'm finding that the power occasionally cuts out. I can fix it for a little by turning it on and off again, but it doesn't last forever. This wouldn't be a huge problem for me (though food going bad in the fridge when I'm not at base is a pain), but the rest of the server doesn't have the electricity to do it when I'm not online and they're trying to play.

What causes this? Is there a limited number of things (lights, tvs, fridges, stoves), that a solar generator can power?

I asked an admin to spawn in a second in the same location to test this theory, and it didn't have any impact.

Is this a bug, or do solar generators have a 'charge' that can only cover so much and eventually it runs out and needs to be restarted?

Arcane, I ran into this issue also. The work-around is to remove ALL vanilla generators from the area. The solar generator should then stay on when you leave/enter the area and when you reload the saved game.

 

I have over 20 large fridges/freezers being powered by my solar gen so I don't think there is a limit. In vanilla the more devices that are connected to your gas generator there are, the more gas it consumes. Since

the solar gen doesn't consume gas there shouldn't be a limit. The only thing that would affect power is range.

You can always make an "add-on" mod for Hydrocraft as long as you give credit and have Hydrocraft as a require mod on steam.

 

However if you are asking to take stuff out of Hydrocraft for a stand alone mod, you would have to ask the original maker of the bows, which would be from the Extra Weapons mod by Tommysticks. And yeah francogp for the 3D model.

 

Again i highly recommend you just do an "add-on" mod for Hydrocraft. Others have done this and it has turned out well since they use content from the mod and add to it without having to deconstruct anything out of the mod. It also means i can see what you have in mind and possibly add it to Hydrocraft itself.

With another survivor on the server, we've combed the entire mall and couldn't find a vanilla generator.

How far away was your generator from the solar one when you ran into this?

Could a barbecue or any other devices count as a generator for this purpose?

My vanilla generators were within a few cells of my solar generator. No a barbecue does not count as a generator.

 

You should do additional testing. Go to a large empty area and place the solar generator and see if it works when you leave/enter the area. Then place the vanilla generator right next to it and see if the solar generator still works when you leave/enter the area.

@Hydromancerx

OK thanks for the answer...

So yeah, the idea is take out stuff and make my stand-alone mod for archery (for people like me who prefer making their own overhaul, sorry for you, love the mod, add so much things that it's maybe to much things, I like keeping a vanilla taste) so I will ask Tommysticks his permission before doing anything, of course (don't know bows come from extra weapon too, I personally use ORGM) and I will wait for francogp answering me too...

If you are still interrested by my compound bow, you have my permission to add it to your mod (just in case nobody answer me, it will still be publish somewhere and I will not make an add-on just for 1 bow... and maybe a new crossbow, nah...) I just have to take a look how to send you in PM (don't want anybody take it here too, sorry guys ^^) and just like you did all times, give me a little credit, I don't do that for being MOTY but credit is always appreciated ;)

I just want to know one thing, traps on hydrocraft (from nolan richie i think) they work on Zeds? because I read on nolan page that they are just for player but you look to have add barbed wire fence and things like that working on Zeds... I presume ^^

 

Edit: I don't know how to send you that XD can't attach anything in PM and I'm not sure that just only text in a PM work, right?

Re-Edit: So yes it work, just have tried to copy code in an other model (a copy of katana model) and I have find my bow with model working, so I give you here the texture and send you in PM the model (text) with ctrl+a (select all) and ctrl+c (copy) then ctrl+v (paste) ^^

Hello @Hydromancerx !

Some changes to notice since the build 39 is here.

They changed the loot zones, i mean, before the build 39, in some garages or areas like this, there was many different stuff and we could find some computer parts, magazines, cooking stuff, box of stuff, alchemy stuff and now, it has changed and we can only find some stuff that we can find in hardware store. I join a screen on my server here Hydrocraft is wrking under Build 39 (I have no big issues with it btw). And we can't find the stuff we found before this new build anymore, anywhere. I look for it everywhere, can't craft electronic workbench and gardening workbench anymore (And probably others). 

 

It's in french but items are the same (you can guess it by the icon)

Is there a way to be fixed ? Probably by changing in the scrpits the spawn location od the stuff i mentionned ? Thanks !

So, I'm having some issues with repairing weapons with Hydrocraft items, namely packing/masking tape and whatnot, as they aren't actually registering as valid items in the repair rightclick path. 

It's happening both with the base game baseball bat, the spiked bat variant, and then the hydrocraft baseball bat(s), the one i tested with because i'm too lazy to install a item spawning menu being the monkey wrench bat.

Instead of requiring the correctly named item, which is an actual item in the game world, it's calling for the file path. I've already messed around in the files to verify that things are a-okay and correct but i'll post any updates if i find a way to fix this on my own.

Okay so it looks like I found a way around it by removing the 'Hydrocraft.' prefix? It's still showing as the file path name though in the repair menu, which is pretty weird, but now it is repairing and removing the correct materials.

Looks like it's fixed the hydrocraft items, but the base game baseball bat is still having issues.

Wow okay that was a thing

I moved the baseball bat fixer recipe into scripts>weapons bats and all the references worked. 

Spoiler

Then I removed the fixer stuff from scripts>base items

Also might I say that not having to make a new save every time I reload sped this up so much, i was making new saves and hunting for packing tape last night every time lol.

Spoiler

(Changed in >weapons bats)

(removed base repair items from the >weapons bats entry

Afterwards everything worked, but you might wanna remove the basic repair recipe stuff so it doesn't repeat itself. Maybe you could do multiple entries if you're changing a base item's repair cost, one in scripts>base items and then the hydrocraft additions in scripts>'weapon file'?

^^^ After testing this I can verify that it works and I appear to have solved the problem of base items not playing nice with hydrocraft items. You can remove the hydrocraft prefix and it'll work, but with a weird file name, or you can have an additional entry within a hydrocraft file, as well as an entry in the base items file if you're needing to change any fixing costs from the base game.

I noticed that too; Bags and boxes not turning up any items, Metal Detector doing the same - Also chiming in with the disappearing Dogs. Don't know if it's a recent problem, but our newly built Solar Generators are not working correctly. They work after being placed, but if you leave the cell and come back; they have been switched off - this appears to desync between clients; Other players report that the power is still on, while for the player who left and came back, it's all off again - relogging sometimes helps to straighten it out; but overall it has caused intense frustration. We've checked everywhere within several cells for Generators, and moved them to far off corners of the map using admin/invisibility - but that did not help. Sadly for us all, this has caused us to come to the decision to discontinue our server until things can be squared up.
Thanks for all your hard work Hydromancer, I know modding can't be easy - PZ ain't the same without Hydro, but until these problems can be identified and fixed, we're gonna have to give it a miss :'(

A few things that need attention:

 

You can't actually fish using mole crickets as bait.  It gives you the option in the menu, but when you try it it doesn't actually work.  I get a little red error warning in the bottom-right, and he never starts fishing.

 

There is currently nothing you can do with an empty "bucket with concrete", which is a shame.  Sure, it should be impossible to get all the concrete out, but why does that stop me from using it to make more concrete?

 

Is there a reason smelters can only be made of red brick and not grey brick?

I got the game from GOG and Steam doesn't allow downloading mods without buying game from them first.
The steamworkshopdownloader.com doesn't work either. There might be a way to unlock it, but that's checking some option for the uploader (I think)

 

Could you please upload the mod somewhere besides steam or better yet, figure out if you can let people download it with the downloader?

I can't be the only one who foolishly strayed away from Gaben : )

I think steamworkshopdownloader is using a flawed system.  I'm a GoG user....I installed steamcmd on our dedicated server and I've never had any issue using it to download pz mods from the workshop in anonymous mode.
