Ideas and suggestions / Automation for late game
April 05, 2019, 05:18:37 AM
Hi
I came out with some of ideas. As in the late game it is quite boring to mine yourself those tones of materials you need for crafting and T3 mining charges are not efficient... - It would be good idea to make things more automatic. You could add it industry 4 or make whole new industry tier for automation.

Drill - Next tier pickaxe wich can mine more ores than pickaxes lets say 5% more drop chance.
Chainsaw - Same as above but for tree cutting (i've been working on mod of it but it lacks alot features that i don't know how to implement yet)
Automatic drill - building simmilar to lithium and oil pumps but it's mining ores and everything on it's way. Lets say it could have it's own inventories: 

  • one for the fuel as in pumps buildings
  • one for things that machinery is digging out and it will have same slots amount as normal woodden chest
You could build it anywhere you want and deppends on the biom you will get different ores mined. Can be done the same way as ore respawn on map (coal on the north, iron and copper everywhere etc.) It would have a digging ticks that will take a time in sake of balance like one dig tick would take 15-30 seconds or so on. Deppends on streght of you machine which could be possibly upgraded in few ways. Cost of each upgarade would be half of the materials that base drill cost (with or without lp) and give:
  • from 5 to 10% of mining speed boost each lvl depends on your balance preference up to 3 lvls of upgrades
  • 2-5% of increased ore chance each lvl and 3 lvls as well
  • 1-2% of  inceased chance for special drops (like gems) 1 or 2 lvls
Another thing i didn't mention would be fact that each tick should have chance of mining things - example: Stone or sand - 50-60% and each possible ore should be random between rest of the possible chance (5-10% depended from circumstances). So in result we have machine that each half a minute gives random raw mining material in exchange of fuel so we don't need to be wasting time digging and can be doing other things.

Transportion system - Pipelines that are connecting different consctructions with each other. When your machinery producing alot of materials you could connect it to chests and crates to store them more effectively or connect them together so they transfering thing between them.

Assembling machine - Automatic crafting device where you can queue things you want to craft in dramatic quantities. Could have upgrading system as well as the drill has but this time you would have to already got technology unlocked for each type of crafting. For example:
  • You want to craft a gun you need to have nodes for this gun discovered and made an upgrade parts for the assembler wich would cost some materials to do
  • need sulphuric acid - get your hands on chemistry then add it to your asembler
same for all of the different stuff. Can be done one of two ways: one where you can "teach" assembler tehcnology and everyone else can use it, or queue can be done only by a person who have tehcnology on him.

Auto Smelter - Automatic device used to burn ores into ignots and create other materials that furnance is doing. Can be connected directly do the drill by transporting system and then connected to the Assembler which will fill all of our chest with everything we want it.

It would be definitely end game thing where you don't need more lps as you will not earn them using this systems. You will just get materials and stuff for future trading/raiding/boss fighting or anything that would implemented to the game.

I'm really curious about what do you guys think about it?

In addition could you change back some of the materials stacking to 250 like piryt or wood? Same thing would be for food you can carry 250 iron ore in your hands or 100 iron ignots but 11 berries is too much :D come on guys at least give as 50 or 20 :D

Help section / Server and Mod problem
December 07, 2018, 10:57:41 AM
Hi.
I'm new to modding and programming in general. I'm having problem with testing my mod.
I've made an tool item with texture, recipe, technology and item properties. All done in scripts. I put them together similar to the way i found in working mods that I download and check. I download server i make it running on clean version.
When i first try to run server with mod placed in server and game folders, it didn't have technology yet, and I get error that file is corrupted and it's going to be ignored - server ran without mod. I sayed ok.. let's look what was wrong. I found out that I'm missing technology of this item that will add recipe. So I added script with that.
Of course, all files were putted to mpk file together and placed into the correct folders in it.
After I packed it up again with new script, I tried to launch the server again. But then my server went into the infinity loop and never start :(
Here are all the files: Mod in mpk, mod config, and log from sever loopping.

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1QKZ0aGDngplWC73LrqPogtbPf1Iil72f (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1QKZ0aGDngplWC73LrqPogtbPf1Iil72f)

Server didn't even showing me wich scripts are making compiler to stop running. There is just empty line, so I don't have idea how to deal with this problem. Maybe I still missing some scripts?
Can someone help me please? :(

EDIT: I fogot to add: after this happend my server and game files are corrupted. I getting error:

And I need to edit ModConfig.xml again because something is deleting code from it.

Bug reports / Lower Perfomance while Crafting
December 04, 2018, 04:00:43 PM
Hello
I'm playing Cryofall for more than week now. I'm playing on community server "[POL] Brodaty Serwer Cryofall discord.broda.tv". I don't know is this problem is the same everywhere or is it only me, but I've discovered that crafting is making weird lags. It's happening when i full up my crafting queue or even when I'm trying to craft something that need more time (like weapons). I'm getting yellow sing in a corner while this ocur but my FPS looks like normal on 60. When I try to moving it's giving me some spike lags. I could live with it but it's kinda make gameplay less attractive.
My PC:
          Operating System: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 17134)
          Language: Polish (Regional Setting: Polish)
          System Manufacturer: MSI
          BIOS: C.10 (type: UEFI)
          Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6600 CPU @ 3.30GHz (4 CPUs), ~3.3GHz
          Memory: 8192MB RAM
          Available OS Memory: 8132MB RAM
          Page File: 10062MB used, 1661MB available
          Windows Dir: C:\WINDOWS
          DirectX Version: DirectX 12
          Card name: AMD Radeon (TM) R9 380 Series
          Display Memory: 8137 MB
          Dedicated Memory: 4071 MB
          Shared Memory: 4065 MB
          Current Mode: 1920 x 1080 (32 bit) (60Hz)

Maybe it's not a high end PC but I think it shouldn't struglle with the game.
Im sending screens of FPS counter:

Any solution? Does anyone else report such a thing?
