Title: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on November 19, 2017, 06:43:46 PM
Hello

just let you know i am back to modding lately.
and the first thing i want to do is put all my best items in 1 single mod because i think there is alot of big mess all around my mods. also i noticed, nobody is using all my best items anymore :P
so i want to do a package but not like a RK Megamod :P i really dont want to add everything, only what i personally love.

and i ll do it so poeple get the look i want by default. and if people really dont like it, they will have to delete it and go mess around with the different parts/mods i did in the past. ^^


i am replacing the vanilla barn with my own look of vanilla barn i did at some point. So you go in vanilla barn icon and click on it, it will be my "look" and my model and textures.
will be same for the vanilla WoodHouses and vanilla StoneHouses. The woodhouse models will be my OldWood Little house models, and the stonehouse models will be the OldChurch Stones little house models. So both will have my models and textures by default.

i will redo a new hostel to fit the textures i use for the wood/stone houses.

the ground will have the peak's valley textures by default. and i will be add the Peak's Valley and Peak's Plain as a start condition for different RNG kind of maps.
the iron to be harvested will be iron ore and will need to be processed, there will be copper too, both with my own textures. Lumber will be part of it too.

Of course my Forest Center Mod will be included and part of the mechanic of the game. So my own gatherer/herbalist/Forester/Woodcutter/HunterLodge mesh will replace the vanilla ones along with my lumbermill and forest barn. (the stand along models will be the default, and my forest center setup of districts will be also available as complement, inside the mod.)
There is a new center also focussing on mining is included (Mining, StoneCutting, Foundry, Blacksmith, Specialized stockpile for it, and 1 more i forgot the name.) They are like the Forest Center models, the stand alones will be the default, and the Mining Center setup of districts will be also available as complement inside the mod. Districts of course are more productive.

There is be another Center to design around the clay/brick/sand/glass technologies.

i will add also the fodder chain mod expanding it a bit to get pigments from flowers to make paints.
Lumber, brick, glass, paints... will be needed for the multi lvl housing and advanced buildings like hospitals/townhalls/others for example.

it will probably a bit harder to play with that setup cause it will ask more processing... but will be more fun :) specially on hard mode ^^


as soon you will enable the mod, you will see directly the changes while in the starting menu. the demo when you start the game will reflect the changes :)

as about the compatibility with other mods:

it will mainly compatible with most mods, of course, mods that add starting conditions will a partial compatibility cause only the first one on top of the list will trigger the starting condition... like CC :)
i am not sure about the North though since it doesnt work well with CC ... i am scared that it will have same problem......

but mostly everything you will add should work. it is same about my own mods.

that sounds like a huge project. what mods aren't we using??? i know many players went to short games since the 1.07 change while you all were doing upgrades to the mods. i know i am hoping for more modular mods from the CC team. i held off loading the NMT parts until it was finished since the 2.04 NMT works fine now.
      when you replace the vanilla barns and houses,do you still plan to use the thatch from the nat div mod? the way it works now is with the nat div enabled, you need thatch for the vanilla wood houses,barns,and pastures. if the mod was placed below CC or the NORTH ,would the ground textures overide the mods above it?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on November 19, 2017, 07:07:46 PM
yes,you are right,RED. the NORTH will have issues with iron ore against iron bloom. i think that is the biggest issue of CC and the NORTH together.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: galensgranny on November 19, 2017, 07:14:26 PM
Sounds interesting.  It would be good to have all those production chains after having played the regular mostly vanilla game for a long time, to give a new challenge.

I am glad you are back to modding!  :)

yeah Tom needs to switch over ore from bloom (make that concession ?? english??) to make North compatible with everything else ^^



bah the big "modular" versions will be still available and compatible.... maybe in the package they wont be as full as they are in the parts (like all the models/textures of housing??) TBD status^^

i think even if you start a CC starting condition will my textures be still loaded. i will need to test. Of course if you choose Desert map from CC .... it will be a desert map.
i am not planing to use NatDiv thatch because it am not the moddler of those, and i dont have any of his files to include. the new vanilla barn/buildings arent in thatched and have my textures.


although in this like video you dont see the peak's valley texture... you can see by default, the buildings are from me.
also in this video, i wanted you to see the "demo" cities of the game, which start as you start the game in the menu, the demos that turn to left to right to left to right.... you can see it already started to change and being replaced by my own textures/models :) (at 0:10 sec and at the end)

i cannot say it is really a new big project... cause 80% is already done. just need to pack everything together in the same, unique, folder ^^
of course there are some building i need to do ... but mostly are already done. i am already playing with it since 2-3-4 months.

it is called : RK Editor Choice Edition ^^

i know you do. Note that not many people are blogging anymore :(

there is you, Brad and there is Abandonned and Irrelevant. i wish there are more people  :'(
but i dont see anything with Peak's valley "look" or "feel" :S

Post by: galensgranny on November 19, 2017, 09:06:38 PM
I watched the video short preview.  Looks good!  Your little houses are my usual first few houses, so I am glad to see they are yours too in your new project.  (Love those porches.) I really liked how the wooden walled little house upgraded to a stone walled version of the same building shape.  I am fond of that barn as well. 

I hope to see a white bench as one of the building things left to do.  ;)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on November 19, 2017, 09:38:11 PM
yeah i need to do the white benches too at some point ^^

(i also love those little houses, i think i made them very very well)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: galensgranny on November 19, 2017, 09:47:32 PM
Yes indeed, you did make those little houses very well!  They are a very good size.  They can be the largest, more wealthy homes in the neighborhood compared to some smaller scaled homes, or they can be the modest, smaller sized homes but still fit in general scale to some larger homes, such as your three story homes.  Having the various F key variants for different walls makes them even better.

That iron issue must be fake news.^^ Both CC and North have iron ore. They are incompatible by hundreds of changes made to create different scenarios from starting conditions to landscape, climate, wildlife, resource management, trading and user interface but actually not because of ore.

Will be great to see a new main mod by Red. Don't try to stay compatible with other main mods. It only restricts you. If people want to add some of your buildings to a nordic map they can use separated versions which have no conflicts or are even adapted to work this way.

Very nice Red i always use your mods to start my new game. Looking forward to RK Editors Choice Mod.

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on November 20, 2017, 07:54:56 AM
RED,when you add the fodder mod to this,you might consider changing some flags. since water isn't useful as food it could be changed. perfume could be switched to crafter and flowers to material. this would use the limit flags to separate them from the fodder and fertilizer which the greenhouses use.not saying remake the mod itself but it might be helpful in future updates. if markets are set to not store the misc tag,then they won't store fertilizer with food. once the flowers or fodder hit the limit ,it stops the stables from producing and that stops the greenhouses. just brainstorming ways to use the new flags to give more control.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on November 20, 2017, 03:55:12 PM
switching perfum and flowers of flag can be done, not sure about water though. nobody on the planet can live without water and always been a illogical deficience in games. anyways there will be another 2 material that will appear with the flower chain : pigments and paints.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on November 20, 2017, 04:35:13 PM
can we split construction materials and have a slot for crafting materials too?that might help. trying to figure ways that chains can still function with the limits. sometimes it can be helpful to be able to slow down 1 building in a chain but still produce the end product. say there is 3 buildings under 1 limit. you need some of step 1 to get step 2 and then some of step 2 to get the final.if you hit the limit it will shut down in the middle. when you find it, the step 1 filled the limit and stopped step 2,so step 3 ran out and can't produce the final item. i hope i explained it without confusing you.
                  in large towns it can be a problem. you are trying to build in 1 area and don't see what is happening in another.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on November 20, 2017, 06:48:17 PM
yeah i understand the step1, step2, step3....
but sometimes to say something is a construction material while in fact giving that flag can be weird

for example that fodder chain:

you get fodder : misc. custom7. can we say construction material ? we are feeding the horses with that. So maybe materials custom4 ?
(custom 4 = material : harvested natural resources not through mining. clay sand hardwood...)

with fodder you feed horses and get fertilizers : misc. custom 7. nobody eat those^^ but used to get food. it is not crafted and cannot put in same custom4 material.... maybe then let it stay at custom7: Misc. ?

with fertilizer you get food so that ok there....

the other subchain : flowers.
flowers : custom7 Misc again .... is also an harvested natural resources can we can switch it to custom 4 ? (so you will get clay, sand, hardwood, fodder, and flowers ?)

with flower you do perfume: custom 7 Misc. again (lol i ve put everything there ??) perfume is a trade only end product. Can we put this in luxuries ? and ask to act like a tavern ? giving happiness while consumming perfume ? (i know we dont drink it, but spread in the neck, cloth, head... and give happiness to people ^^) that way it wont be just a sell item anymore and get a use.

new chain with flower i want to do is making pigments (by the perfumery menu too) and with it making paints. I want paints to be a construction material and used as requirement to build buildings that has colors (yellow,red,blue,purple,etc... wood building)(like country/colorful/boston houses)

so the pigments can be :  maybe misc. custom 7 ? it is not really a harvested natural resource material (custom 4)
and with pigments we will do paints which will fall under Custom 5 Construction Material.

would it be ok ?


Fodder - Custom4 => Fertilizer - Custom7 => Food
Flower - Custom4 => Perfume - Luxuries
Flower - Custom4 => Pigment - Custom7 => Paints - Custom5
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on November 20, 2017, 07:20:15 PM
yes you  did send it all to misc. that was why when you designed it everyone had fits. the fodder kept stopping the chain.LOL it is an interresting debate.

i think perfume should go under crafted since then it won't store in the taverns.otherwise we would need to up the limit and the breweries will use all our fruit. i think of crafted as end trade goods. i can see pigment being material, custom 4 and paint being construction material, custom 5.
       i debate the fodder being under materials. the limit we players use for the fodder is high enough,i am concerned how it would affect clay and sand. i think splitting flowers to custom 4 away from the fodder might be enough to help the chain. do we dare use a reserved limit flag and call it crafting materials??

      do you want me to be a critic? the perfumery uses flowers much slower  then they are produced. the perfumery could use more flowers per each perfume.even with 2 perfumeries with 2 workers the flowers can be overpowering. i ship the excess and trade it for food.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on November 20, 2017, 07:40:50 PM
ale appear inside the tavern footprint, on the ground, and it is picked up by the brewer and put directly in the tavern storage. they dont go put them inside another tavern and use the nearest storage available without moving. i think

the perfume wont go store in tavern because without moving they will go to the nearest storage available which is directly there; perfume would store inside the perfumery like ale in tavern. i think

about the ale limits... yeah it would need some adjustments but doesnt CC already have some kind of other luxuries ? with some meal consuming at pubs ? how does it act or play on your limits ?
Note i am also OK with just a sell item too.... we are debating. :)

about flowers, with a number of flowers turned into pigments and then paints to build some houses... will still be overpowered ? there will still have alot of excess ?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on November 20, 2017, 07:56:49 PM
there is the pub meals but they don't produce very fast so has little affect on the luxury limit. CC used to use the tag for the my precious mod,silver and gold,mine actually still is set that way. depending on how much you plan to use for pigments and paint,it might use it up more. i think at the moment the flowers is enough to keep 4 perfumeries busy.
     the pub meals is a goofy 1. i always thought the bannies would use them as food or maybe they did before the 1.07 upgrade.
     these bannies are bad at moving items all over the map into different buildings.there are even posts @ CC cause the bannnies are storing so much in taverns.since the upgrade with the compatability 1.07 mod,the downfall is the storage has gotten crazier. i think turning some limit flags off on storage in markets will help that. turning off misc will stop fertilizer from being stored with food. there is already barns, and markets all you modders made, to move goods for production buildings. like you and EB's wharehouses.

Red, with so many great mods by you and others, I try not to use any vanilla object;, homes, storage, fields, production facilities - none of them! A favorite challenge is to see how quickly I can replace the start condition vanilla wooden homes and barn with modded ones. With RK Editor Choice Edition I will have to find a new challenge. But your houses are a favorite so I don't mind  ;)

Despite daily visits to WOB, I've not blogged the towns that have grown up in my 6000+ hours of Banished play. (I play a lot.) Thanks for the reminder that posting pics/blogs can help modders see how their mods are used and enjoyed. I'll add some and hope others will too!

Fodders farm: Love how gorgeous this mod looks. Pair it often with fire brick little houses and walls. I agree with brads3 that flower production is high, especially because I build several. Look forward to pigments and paint. Selling flowers works so no issues with excess, just another fun challenge to deal with.

Flags and limits: Not a big issue to me as a player. I use Status window for gross food, tools, clothes, and log/iron/stone. With so many mods and cumulative imbalances that for the others I use the Inventory windows to track them and just dial up limits - not perfect, but with warehouses and traders it's good enough for my play style. Sure it matters to modders, but don't lose sleep over it  ;D

Districts and chains: Great work on the forester version. Can't wait for the clay/brick/sand/glass as this is a favorite chain I use often across mods/modders. The variety that brick and glass add to building things is a huge plus.

Post by: RedKetchup on November 21, 2017, 12:12:25 PM
personally me too i never got any problems with flags because i always be the one, and will be always the one, who put all limits at 999,999 as very first move when the map has been generated.
as a modder, blogs and pictures are important. it let me know how my buildings looks as a whole in all different situations/maps/city_designs.

I wish to hear you more @Turis  !

I like the design of the school building.  Could you make an F key variant for it with no fence?  I like my schools to have a school yard where I put benches, sometimes some of your training camp items, and now, the swings and slides Kid made.  Then I put one of the available separate fences around it.

Post by: RedKetchup on November 25, 2017, 02:03:20 AM
i still have alot to do in it because many parts of NMT3.0 hasnt been redone

- need to finish NMT3.0 to include it into this
- need to make my Mining Center to include it to this
- need to make my other industry center (i dont have the name yet but it is for sand/clay/glass/bricks things) to include it into this
- need to add 80% of all my others mods done into it

- i know i have to do the white/colors benches for someone....
- i still have Rise Of The Pharaoh i am working on from time to time...
- make a feeding shed for someone...
- check nat div / pine tree....
- add turkeys to towers/butchers lol ....
- create a standalone brothel...

why ??

Meanwhile the new hospital has been completed :)

Hi @RedKetchup , just adding a request reminder hoping you will add it to the bottom of your to-do list.  Request was on old Work in Progress thread July 19, 2017 Reply #761

"I have a request, or a suggestion for Garden Walls Utilities.  I just love the fodder farm hut.  I was wondering if a matching piece with that same roof could be added to the set called a feeding shed that would have the same function as the stable.  The matching shed could then be put next to the vanilla pasture as if that was the source of the fertilizer.  It would be a very nice alternative to always using the stable.  It could actually go with any pasture, even fenceless."

Hope you will consider it.  The fodder fields are fantastic.  :)

Hi Red,  What I mean is that the Pine set and the Nat Div make a lot of changes to the starting conditions and I was hoping that the changes you make will work alongside those made by the others.

i will add the feeding shed to the list even if i think it is a "hidden" way to ask a stable with a nerfed 4x6 footprint instead the good 5x9 size footprint ^^

----------

about nat div/pine mod... i need to see how it is set up and see how goes the conflicts
and how the game handles those conflicts. i dont think Necora posted his code in the Laboratory.... maybe, i need to verify the section.

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on November 25, 2017, 06:29:22 PM
that can be fixed,RED. if it is smaller it can produce less fertilizer.i still like a dairy barn that would eat fodder and give milk and fertilizer.that fodder set has so many options.NECORA has goats and rabbit pens, and a chicken coop but they eat corn.so far only you have fertilizer.

the indians wanted me to file a complaint too. the tower hunters don't hunt turkeys.they said they had to eat fish and rice like chinease people for thanksgiving.they are mad at ABANDONED too. she males TeePee's without using bison hides while they are forced to live in log cabins. they keep mumbling "pale face&^%$^%,pale face ^*^*." i dont think i want to know what the 3rd word means.

@brads3 the Natives are my friends, the 3rd word was something not very nice about tower and fort builders who steal fertilizer from fodder feeding sheds.  Should have sent you natives over to Cedar Creek, they had a feast.  :)

Post by: Maldrick on December 03, 2017, 03:45:07 AM
Looks great, RK.

Since you are working on the Tailor and you are using the Old Tailor, you might check the production on that.  It may have changed with the 107 version, but I noticed in some tests way back when I was still using the 106 one that the Old Tailor was a fair bit less productive over time than the vanilla tailor.  Might have been intentional, but thought I would mention it since you're working on it now.

yeah will be if it is a settings that add reeds/grass/thatch on the ground as the random map generator
thats the things with this game/modkit. only 1 mod decide what goes on the ground when it is generating.

i can maybe add my own thatch /fodder thing at start and see a way to get thatches for your mod building ?

The vanilla market had 14x14 and it was based on a setup of 3 houses of 4x4 each side of the market...

So i did another one 10x10 (a setting with 2 houses each side) with elements (pieces) from the 14x14 :)

it will have a less radius range and lesser capacity :)
and should give that :

cause there is only a 2x2 square in center (the way i made the roads in middle) and the red tent is going very well and look very good in middle.  ;D

the foot print will be like this


MapDescription map

"..........

RED,are you going to flag that to store everything or just what the bannies really use?? i would suggest doing 2 set ups at least. 1 where it stores more for production or mine areas.and 1 that is for city centers that stores food,clothing,firewood,and tools. you could make the production center store heavier on other items and lighter of food. so it might be 3 1 balanced of all items,1 for the city center,and 1 storing priority materials to be processed.

there will be stores that will focus more on production materials :) like was in NMT2.0

those exclusively focus on the bannies and their homes : edible foods: vegs, fruits, meat and grains; firewood, tools, and clothes only

with all that fodder,how is the food that is spawned at start? blueberry,,roots,herbs,etc?how does the game read the fodder? does it read as trees and affect anything in the next years reappearing if the fodder is or isn't harvested?does it regrow like trees? too many questions..

the trees will continue to spawn their fruit/vegs as before and will still have a chance to respawn themselves...
the grass will mostly spawn in open area (zone with almost no trees around) and will spawn flowers as before in GardenWalls mod and will still have a chance to respawn themselves...

yes game reconize and read fodder and if you cut it will spawn fodder resource. i would made it compatible with nat div (tatching) but i need their raw material file. fodder and tatch can be the exact same thing (just with a name changed at our screen) ...
but they didnt posted anything in the Laboratory section and didnt shared anything.

i not sure if it worth testing....
if mine is ontop there will be nothing from natdiv spawning when the generator will do the map
if natdiv ontop, my copper ore/fodder patches wont be created at the map creation.

what we fixed and made sure as their file name and my file name wasnt the same (aka NaturalResourceGrass.rsc)


but what i can do is make sure you can use fodder to feed stable and the same resource can be used to make tatched house as material. can be same file, with different name on screen depending which one is on top.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on December 14, 2017, 02:48:09 PM
i just received the RawMaterialNatDivThatch.rsc files by email...

so i can easily ask my citizens to cut MY grass and spawn RawMaterialNatDivThatch.rsc on the ground.
i can easily ask my stables to use that RawMaterialNatDivThatch.rsc and make fertilizer from it :)

i also see that RawMaterialNatDivThatch.rsc can be used in homes as fuel. is it still a good thing ? what people that used tatch to warm their home think about that feature they made ? was it good or bad ?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on December 14, 2017, 05:07:47 PM
i love how the grass patches spawn mainly zones where there are no trees and fill those spots


so instead of harvesting RawMaterialHayStack.rsc i will make it harvest RawMaterialNatDivThatch.rsc.
and i ll ask my stables to use that RawMaterialNatDivThatch.rsc and create fertilizer  :)

that way it will be fully compatible. you will able to use the tatch and do tatched homes or use as fuel. (it has been asked many times)
or use in my stables and get fertilizer and get food in greenhouses

in the zip i ve got the template and i also got the 3D model and icons  :)
i have an hockey game presently, but after i ll finish to incorporate all GardenWalls: Utility in my mod  :)
i will update my models also to use the transparency glasses and my wood/roof textures of this mod

this big expansion is coming along nicely
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on December 14, 2017, 05:43:13 PM
don't get crazy and work too hard. i would like to hear more input from other players on this idea.did BT send you any news with the file?i am still stuck in CC land but hopefully of more modulars coming and can sit down and merge several mod sets together.
     am i reading you correctly? you are saying the thatch looks better than the fodder and are changing the garden utility mod to be thatch instead of fodder?there is no way to do both or you have reason not to? the meadows is a great accomplishment indeed. that adds more realism at map starts.with the forever tree mod,i never see problems that others have had. after 100 years or so a map was known to loose trees ad only be open space except the foresters.the forever tree mod fixes it so the trees don't die and fall over and disappear. i think the way NECORA has developed the pine mod,the start trees may actually multiply on mapos as well. the map layers is something he and BT worked at to merge nicely.
        your idea of feeding animals has been expanded on somewhat. NECORA has a dairy barn,chickens,rabbits,and goats fed with corn. the domestic animals are requried to build them.i always hoped you would do a dairy barn like the stable that would give milk and fertilizer. your idea could be expanded on or even a combination of other ideas added to it.it is a neat addition.
          houses do use thatch as firewood. DS has some that do not.the houses prefer firewood. the nat div 2 had good ideas and a way to bundle the thatch.sadly that mod is too powerful and slows computers down. i only know 1 person who even could run it. i don't want to step on him or change his work.hence why i asked if he sent news of his plans.

      while on the subject of the map meshes or layers, what are your thoughts concerning reeds?this is where input from WOB players would be handy.do  a lot of them use the CC dock set? do they find they have enough reeds or would they prefer to have some spawned as well?  if i remember right,the game loads 4 layers when it draws the maps. in discussions we kept wishing to add another layer or 2. NECORA did say he was revamping the trapping. i do see TOM has added that and changed a ton with the new north.the gathering ability that NECORA added with the pine mod combined with TOM's new hunting and gathering would be interesting.

there is 2 things:

MY grass looks alot more better than natdiv grass.
the material that fall on the ground (natdiv thatches) after being harvested is alot better than my haystack piles.

so i am taking the best of the 2 worlds :)

my old grass was dropping RawMaterialHayStack.rsc (fodder)
natdiv grass was dropping RawMaterialNatDivThatch.rsc (thatch)

so now MY grass will be dropping RawMaterialNatDivThatch.rsc (thatch)
you guys asking me to make my haystack being able to use it as thatch... this is what i do
i ll take the natdiv thatch and use it the same way i was using my fodder

the difference between both is the 3D graphic  and the numbers. BT made 1-2 drop (while i was getting 16-20)
instead to take 12 haystacks(fodder) i will use only 1 or 2 to get the 4-6 fertilizer. also that way you wont have a barn filled with 48,000 fodders ^^

i dont plan to use the necora trees at all. and i am not planing to replace the vanilla trees so the only lag people can get will be from MY grass patches and not from natdiv grass, nor necora trees.

about the domestical farm type of technology... i never really use. bah in fact, if i look back, the stables are this type of technology. i can maybe add one with cows inside and get fertilizer/milk from 1-2 RawMaterialNatDivThatch.rsc :)

Post by: brads3 on December 14, 2017, 06:24:16 PM
hmmmm  we see backwards? it is funny how different players have differeing ideas. i like the hay piles.the thatch lay out on a map doesn't become overpowering. i think that could be adjusted though.i agree with changing the ouputs, it is senseible that to feed stables a player would soon need a fodder hut.i dont think someone would keep feedig from what they can collect.the perfumery should use more flowers too. will they be collected by just the flourist or would the laborers collect them when clearing land?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on December 14, 2017, 06:36:47 PM
i can change the number of flowers too (drop less? use more ?)

if you clear a zone, it will depends as same as the herbs. if you clear before you get an herbalist, it is lost. if clear after you got your first herb... it should be collected.
i ll have to make a remove tool... will see how it goes after :)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on December 14, 2017, 06:47:53 PM
there are too many flowers so the perfumery should use more to get rid of them.i always end up dumping excess flowers to the trading post.

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on December 14, 2017, 07:18:02 PM
so far...

screenshot 1 : you see fodder - thatch is getting harvest and stockpiling in the stockpile and show natdiv thatch graphics.
screenshot 2 : the stables takes 2 fodder + 2 water and get fertilizer.
screenshot 3-4 : i asked to remove grass and flowers : they get fodder-thatch but no flowers
screenshot 5 : i built a florist . florist get flowers

screenshot 6 : asking to manually harvest a little zone with a flower inside... still not harvested, nothing.
so i ll go add a remove tool and see after.

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on December 14, 2017, 07:54:22 PM
so i made 2 remove tools... 1 for fodder one for flowers.....

fodder still harvested and not the flowers ^^
they get removed but not harvested. only the florist can harvest them (exactly same as herb and onion/berries/shrooms i guess)
i thought herbs would get harvested after herbalist built .... probably wrong.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on December 14, 2017, 08:09:40 PM
so they clear fodder and waste food? how does it work so they can harvest food plus trees plus traps?do they leave the flowers and not destroy,just clear fodder and vise versa clear flowers leave fodder?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on December 14, 2017, 08:19:57 PM
if you use the clear ALL tool over a big random zone, lets say 20x20

they will cut trees and harvest logs
they will process stones and harvest stones
they will process iron and harvest iron ore
they will process copper and harvest copper ore
they will cut all mushroom/onion/berries/roots/herb / flowers but you harvest nothing!
they will cut grass and harvest fodder-thatch

did i forgot something ?

same as stand alone tools:
you use Remove Trees Tool and they will cut trees and harvest logs
you use Remove Stone Tool and they will process stones and harvest stones
you use Remove Iron Tool and they will process iron and harvest iron ore
you use Remove Copper Tool and they will process copper and harvest copper ore
you use Remove Flower Tool and they will cut flowers but you harvest nothing!
you use Remove Grass Tool and they will cut grass and harvest fodder-thatch
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on December 14, 2017, 08:47:42 PM
i found out !!!!!

i know why my flowers dont get harvested by laborer :P

do you think it is a good thing to get it harvested by nobodies ? ^^ or do you think they should get destroyed and not harvested by non-florists ?

and whats about wild food ? (i can do same as CC and BusyLaborers of Darkbibou and get wild food harvesters by non-gatherers....)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on December 14, 2017, 09:20:53 PM
magic,leave the flowers and harvest everything else.lol   laborer destroy flowers so not overstocking barns.. i do not know how the canadian did it.he has foresters who check traps,gatherers will pick up eggs.laborers can collect pelts  from beaver traps,etc.but the pine mod adds all of that to the vanilla laborer and workplaces. oh and TOM's new system i haven't tested yet.
   the super way would be to have the layers put a mix of chesnut,apple,and maple trees with the normal trees but not not be overpowered.

you need to go in your NaturalResourceFile.rsc and check at the end of paragraph : NaturalResourceDescription naturalresource
the last line need to be deleted or put in pause with //

   //Profession _requiredHarvestProfession = "Game/Profession/Profession.rsc:gatherer";


if there is a profession there at that line , only those profession jobbers will able to get harvested stuff from it. if you dont specify it, everyone will get stuff.

the remove toolbar will look like that :)

orchards not finished yet, so not posted....

about crops, the one posted doesnt have Irrelevant's numbers.
so they easily grow but 1 which has an error.... i think was turnips... that grow alot slower

i am reviewing a bit the irrelevant numbers yesterday cause i had Kales not getting to more than 23% every years :S
so once i ll know the numbers are ok... i ll post an update.

irrelevant played alot with that to give them tons of different numbers, i gone back yesterday and added 2-4 degress in range temp.
cause i was getting crops stopping to produce asap i was getting 20C and all summer was over 20C and not a single % for 2 months and they restarting to grow when below the 20. but there was almost no time left.

and i was presently at the market footprint.

so i tried the idea someone said.... and after an hour of many many tries and tests.... i think thats the best option :)

it will allow all the other mods play ok but.

you wont get the starting conditions of the other mods and stuff they add to the ground when you generate the map.


yes i am replacing all the vanilla buildings and offer tons of building inside the community toolbar,
but i also need to spawn copper ore and 3D grass on the ground when you generate the map. In order to get those, my mod will need to be ontop of the list.

It sounds like I will be able to do away with some redundant mods then...  Nat Div, the ones that create the iron ore, grasses, what about the threshers and thatcher?...   Sounds like it will actually make things less complicated!  Yay!

my own mod will create iron ore with my texture.
it will also create grass with my own design.
when you will cut grass, you will get the same thatch resource as NatDiv :) only the name at your screen will have changed to "Thach-Fodder" because it will also be used to feed animals in stables.

maybe :P i ll see

i made hunter lodge. so....

so... i made the woodcutter, the forester, the herbalist, the gatherer, and now hunter done
with my items from forester center mod  :)

i still have to make 2 that was done in that mod... a forest barn that can hold everything found in a forest (wood included) and the very important for this mod, the lumber mill
about the lumber mill and lumber material.... i was wondering since 2 weeks if .... i switch all the building requiring lumbers instead of log ?? it would add a big difficulty to the game 
:D

what do you think about that mechanic ?

i of course would need to make a very little and very very slow 'temporary" building that would turn logs into lumber (kinda a sawpit), very slowly, to allow maybe to have enough lumbers to maybe make an house... or more important , to make the "real" lumbermill which would require lumbers and stones to be build

because if you check all the buildings in game, and even all the vanilla buildings... they arent made from logs... they are made from lumbers !!!
so i would love to implement lumbers as a very important part of the game and add an extra layer to the game mechanic :)

i still have to make 2 that was done in that mod... a forest barn that can hold everything found in a forest (wood included) and the very important for this mod, the lumber mill
about the lumber mill and lumber material.... i was wondering since 2 weeks if .... i switch all the building requiring lumbers instead of log ?? it would add a big difficulty to the game 
:D

what do you think about that mechanic ?

I don't like the idea of all buildings needing lumber- certainly not all houses.  In real life, at first the people would just use logs to make log cabins and a storage barn.  Then after they got shelter and some food, they would start to cut logs into lumber.  But another thought could be that in the medium and easy starts of the game, the Bannies brought with them some lumber to make a few buildings. 


Maybe you might make some log cabins then for the start, if you want all your other buildings to need lumber that the Bannies have to mill.  Nice log cabins that people would still want to live in even after lumber is available.  I like the look of log cabins.

i know ><

i am trying to find a way to implement the lumber because there is a lumbermill with Forester Center and if you dont have CC , this is useless.
if you imagine someone playing with only this brand new mod... they will have a useless lumbermill.

so i am trying to figure out with people what we should do.

does the forest barn  store stone,textiles,and thatch? did you keep the hunter cabin with residence added? that is a smart mod and quite handy. going forward when you get to the colorful house modulars,can you add a ghost covering addition like you have for the food pantry and storage shed? they might be handy to use with KID's workplace mod  parts. have you thought of adding a cellar storage option like CC has? 1x1 tile cellar that can be added to most any building. the cellars give a storage option for each of the different flags.

forest barn:   RawMaterialFlags _storageFlags = Edible | Tool | Health | Fuel | Wood | Textile | Grain | Vegetable | Fruit | Protein;

the forest center barn was designed to get everything produced by the forest center districts (a melting pots between cellar and stockpile)

I like that there are some buildings that need lumber, just not all basic houses, barns and buildings needed to hunt and gather.   Certainly your lumbermill needs to have buildings that need lumber, so maybe make some log buildings for starting out and then the rest needing lumber.  It's not fun for me to play if I can't get some houses built at the start.

That Lumber Mill is gorgeous.
You can integrate lumber in any type of building... I love it much more than logs, gives that refined touch... For example the stone houses could look less heavy with some lumber strategically used in a few parts. Don't get me wrong, I love the stone houses as they are, but lumber (and maybe bricks as base for example) would make for very graceful houses.
If I wasn't useless in this kind of things I'd love to mix and match lumber and bricks/stones every time I could. Windowsills, , steps, great bridges and tunnels, or used as floor in large footprint buildings like markets.

Also those rooftiles (ie. Lumber Mill) are my most favourite (here and IRL), there's no need for them to be only of a light shade, they are usually made darker, black, painted... Maybe that can be done in game aswell. 
But what do I know  :D   I'm not even sure these are doable things!

meanwhile today i am continuing RK EditorChoice :)

today and yesterday , and day before, i was integrating Forest Center and GardenWalls:Utility...

i did the woodcutter, the forester, the gatherer, the herbalist, the hunter, and yesterday the lumbermill and the forest barn... from Forest Center
and yesterday i did the final touch on greenhouse, the stables, and the water well. today i already done the fodder farmers and the florist...
only left to do the fodder barn and the parfumery which should be done for that today.

and after i ll finish the nmt3.0 orchards and will integrate it in RK Edition :)

there is alot of NMT 3.0 stuff to do and some parts will come as an update like ... corner multi-lvl housing... many profession buildings which should fit under the multi-lvl as floor 1 ... decorations... etc.

Hi Red,

Are you making your own megamod? (the big red mod?)

I haven't played since August so I'm not up to date with everything. Has all of your NMT content been updated to 3.0, or do I still need to use the old version of NMT too?

This mod is not exactly a RK Megamod... but a RK EditorChoice mod :)

it will contain all NMT3.0 and everything else i did in other mods that i love the most
the other mods can be full integrated or only the best parts of those.

everything set up in one unique mod with its own theme/flavor.
i want this mod being a total remake with a new fresh look of the game.

I have a couple of questions, if you don't mind, not directly pertinent to this thread.

Without CC I'm happily using the toolbar with all you mods' buttons and sub-buttons. Really enjoying because this way I know who made what, and because I can keep track of the production chain buildings. Yours work perfectly but I was a bit disappointed to see your Red Barn and the Ketchup Factory loose under the general production tab. Was that intentional? Will you change this when the new collection comes out?

My second question is: Did you ever posted/maintained a list with all your mods? I am hunting them down one by one but without a list it's really easy to miss quite a few.
Also I'd like to know if you ever published a mod order list, or just a post with a few hints. I'm struggling trying to order your mods in the best way.
I'm very new to the game and this forum, so even though I spend hours reading the forum's posts (more reading than playing actually  :o), it's not always easy to find answers.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: elemental on January 03, 2018, 02:10:02 AM

1 , apricot, was taking peach tree mesh since both fruit are kinda same
4 are tropical : coconut, bananas, pineapple and acai

This mod is all about all the things i leved the most in everything i did @taniu . so there wont be any ketchup. ketchup has been made because it was a special request made "in joke" and i found that joke pretty funny! but wont be placed into this mod. The Fruit Tree Lime has been already added along with Apricot.
i am not planning to add all those 20th century cooking recipes but i can add the omelet and quiche but thats all about it.

you know, you are not obligated to have all those fantasy recipes in every buildings. That helps to keep those "special" buildings very unique.

@ RedKetchup  :) Thank you for the answer, I knew you would not add anything to the factory, but I tried to "smuggle" something - you're king and decide what you can personally add to your mods. Personally, I am very happy with each new, even small mod added to "Banished" - for me it's black magic - projects or writing commands for play. I belong to the older generation - there were no computers at that time. You're amazing, I can not wait for all the changes you've made to NMT3. I thank you with all my heart. I'm worried about you and your family, how are you [-41 degrees Celsius], but I think it's OK. I have rainy weather, although it is winter. Hot greetings for all modders and players, especially those living in Canada and the USA who are fighting in the harsh winter.

Water cranberries would be interesting but it would have to be something like the CC rice grower and not a true crop, just a production building. Then you have the problem of it producing all year round.

Your cranberry bush fits in with all the other crops and trees much better.  :)

It doesn't worry me either way. I didn't know there were big ones until you made yours. I think a big cranberry pond would be interesting because there would be nothing else like it (and with moving transparent water it would look really great), but the bushes that you have made fit into the game better.

I just posted that video out of interest.  :)

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on January 06, 2018, 02:59:22 PM
also there is a problem with setup a plane of transparent water over the ground. it is the same problem that i met with setting a wood grid for grapes : the game turn the meshes around in an attempt to make each trees look different, and we cannot stop it to doing this. if i setup a 1x1 square of a water plane, the game will turn it into a lozenge. the only thing i can maybe do is a circle plane of water, but, or it wont cover all, or will too big and will overlap and go far outside the crop corners.

keep in mind, it can be not that bad at all, you(we) need to try. maybe the exceeding water wont be too much apparent.

i did too thought that about rice but the project i've got in my mind was plants but also a bit of ground in center going abit up (maybe +0,1' high) and have a water plane at +0,06' which would make the water appear only between mini mount ground(at the base of the plants)... but i didnt tried it yet.

i did a changed about my cranberry bushes, i lowered it alot to the ground and deleted everything that gone below the ground which made me save 30% of polygons. (from 1000 to 700)
even if they still cranberry "high bushes" they look again alot better :)

on the screenshot, i cant stop to stare at my flowers ^^ i cant believe they are looking so good :D

the thing with the water, the crop need to grow dry all summer, it is not watered until the time to harvest it

You could invent a new type of cranberry that grows underwater all year round. The game isn't 100% realistic. We already have tropical fruits growing in the snow, so permanently underwater cranberries isn't a huge stretch of the imagination. The only reason to do it though is because it would look great. Same with a rice paddy.

Quote from: RedKetchup on January 06, 2018, 02:59:22 PM
also there is a problem with setup a plane of transparent water over the ground. it is the same problem that i met with setting a wood grid for grapes : the game turn the meshes around in an attempt to make each trees look different, and we cannot stop it to doing this. if i setup a 1x1 square of a water plane, the game will turn it into a lozenge. the only thing i can maybe do is a circle plane of water, but, or it wont cover all, or will too big and will overlap and go far outside the crop corners.

I wouldn't make it a crop as such, because yes... lots of problems as you mentioned. A large building that looks like a flooded field would be easier. Sort of like your pond. But again, you have the problem of year-round production. Not realistic but some people don't care too much about details like that.

I think they do.  Maybe planted a bit denser than you usually see in real life groves but the trees themselves look good.

Reminds me of my grandfather, actually.  Had a couple of trees in his back yard and he'd take me out to pick breakfast, but you'd have to be up early or he'd have already done it. Think that was the highlight of his day.

i ve put aside the orchards for a week.... before i get mad  :P :'(

i started the pit sand. my plan was to put those in creeks with a creek required running in the middle of it ....
but creeks are way too much unpredictable :( and most of the time, they even run mostly in diagonals. So i've changed my mind

i am making it so we will need to put those on the beach of the Big River. i guess they will work also on a lake.

i am around 60-80% done. there still a lot of details to put : where are the high ground levels meet the river, add some buckets on the working area... maybe some shovels... etc..
but mainly they will look like that.

btw, the claypits will use same mesh bit will use a more "red clay" texture.

at the end, the fact you need space on the river for clay pits and sand pits, it will make it more interessant  :)
we will need to keep up some space for these and not put all trading posts ^^

we will need to choose or we put a pit, or we put a trading post at that spot  :)
we will able to put up to 6 workers (stonecutter profession) per pit  :P

Any chance of going with generic workers with these?  The NMT clay pit kills people left and right, being a mine I guess.  I've started using a storehouse lately to avoid it. Or trading.

Post by: Maldrick on January 11, 2018, 03:25:40 PM
Used that for a while but pretty much stopped mining anyway because they are all limited and I hate dealing with it.  Plus gives you something to get a trade economy going for. Thanks for the reminder, though.  Would definitely help with the clay pit.

Although, one thing that's kind of fun, EB's 2nd Production Set has a shorehouse...If you use that for clay, the set has a glass making chain and that's pretty cool for a trade good.  Been playing a lot of colonial-ish themes lately and glassware fits that nicely...Was a common good in the American colonies. Charburner looks cool with the kilns, I sometimes throw Red's iSeeFire bonfires in with them and necora's smelter...Makes for a nice rustic production area with lots going on, different smoke, etc.  Kind of animates things in a game with no animated buildings.

I'm assuming RK is doing sand with this for glass, too, so that will be awesome, too.

missing small icons of all vanila resources : fixed
tried to reduce the spawn rate of flowers : reduced the numbers by 2.

I've just reloaded my start about 5 times to work out an optimal start. Bunch o' stuff on the ground!  It's cool though.

One for your list I noticed when I was just screwing around before...Mine lists Copper but the name is missing. Only the icon shows.

Going to have to restart again. lol

Not sure what it is, but there are 2 green baskets on the ground where I was trying to build a blacksmith that don't clear.  Couldn't figure out why they stopped clearing so I removed the building and tried all the harvest tools on them.  Nothing marked them.  Also checked to make sure nothing was at limit and I had open storage...That was all good.  Nothing wants to clear those two baskets.  Never seen that before and thinking it's a bug.

Red, if you are adding a watermill for grain, would you please do one for lumber, if you hadn't already. Watermills were far more commonly used as sawmills than windmills.

Well, I'm 5 years into a map and so far, so good. I've not run into any problems. But then again, I haven't built much. I'm playing like I normally play. Kind'a slow. LOL!

I'm sort of undecided about the music. I like it, but I like the original too. The original music sounds a bit more destitute, like it's a tough beginning, but the music you added is a bit more lively; more medieval.

I've built the following so far:

Blacksmith
Blueberry Orchard
Broccoli Field
Fishing Dock
Forester Lodge
Gatherers Hut
Hunting Cabins (2)
Lumbermill
School
Tailor
Wood Cutter

The only other mod I have installed is GimmieCat's Flatten Terrain mod.

I do have a couple of questions. What do we do with flowers? Are they just for trading or have I not built something yet that uses them. Same with thatch, but I think I remember reading that there is a purpose for thatch but I just don't remember what that was.
Edit 1: I see now that you use flowers to make perfume.

Also, as for copper tools; wouldn't they be less dependable than stone? Copper is a pretty soft metal. Going by the order of tools in the selection list for the Blacksmith (screenshot #1 below), it gives the impression that copper tools are better than stone tools.
I can see the copper alloy tools being a bit better than regular iron.

For the flowers you can build a parfumery. but also you need a water well (not the simple vanilla well, but the water well to get the edible water). with both you can make perfume which is a very nice selling items. Note: to be able to build the parfumery you need lumbers and glassware.
the water well needs lumber and stones.

with the thatch, you can heat homes as a firewood power, and you can build the stables. In the stables, you feed horses with thatch-fodder and water and you will get some fertilizer.
with fertilizer and water, you can get very nice food from Greenhouses all year long. Keep in mind, you need alot of glass to build the greenhouses.
with a stable you should be able to sustain 5-6 greenhouses

copper is a very rare metal spawn, you will get alot less of copper ore on the map to compare iron ore. note you can also build the mine in order to get copper ore.
if you craft copper tool, they are a bit less good than the iron tools. but if you make the copper alloy iron tool, they are better. they are not the steel tool (with coal) but just a bit less good of those.

iron tools durability = 100, the steel = 200 , the copper alloy are 180. they are a very nice alternative to steel tools which takes 2 coal.

With shadows set to low and none I don't see it.

usually, moiré comes alive in this game where there is another surface within 0,1' just under....

but this has none. nothing on the side , nothing under. and the real ground is a full tile below.... i dont know, maybe the game doesnt like planes without a bottom.
in next days i ll try to make a box instead to see if there is a change.

i personally play with shadows at max lol

the job of the forester is plant and harvest trees. but when he plants, at the exact same tile it has something there, he needs to harvest what is there so he can plant his tree.
his job isnt gather flowers or fodder-thatch but if he need to clear the tile so we can have a tree, he needs to do it.

since now you also have flowers / thatch / copper on the ground  .... for sure you see him clear a flower/thatch and thats normal. but he is not there for that

Post by: Hawk on January 13, 2018, 03:54:54 PM
I've played this first map for 15 years now and have built almost everything there is to build, with the exception of the Florist, which I didn't see a need to build since the Foresters gather more flowers than logs. I've got more flowers than I know what to do with, and I'm making perfume to trade in the Trading Post.
I also didn't build the Bakery, since there's no way to make flour without adding a separate mod.

I've not noticed any problems with anything. I did have to turn my graphic settings down a bit more than usual (no shadows, but I normally run with no shadows anyway). This mod put a bit of a hurt on my poor old antiquated rig. LOL! I think it's all the flowers and grass.

Everything looks good and seems to play well. I like it.
I've only tried the one Terrain Type and Size so far. I do want to look at the others though, but right now I've got to get a bite to eat and take a nap.  :)

Edit 1: OK! You were posting st the same time as me. I guess once the Forester gets all the flowers and thatch out of the way it won't grow back, so they can then spend their time gathering logs and planting trees?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread

Post by: Hawk on January 13, 2018, 04:03:11 PM
Yes, I did like it. I will continue to play it but I'll be swapping back and forth between this one and The North. I like them both.
The North isn't quite so hard on my computer too.  ;) But that's OK. I still like this mod enough to deal with the lowered graphic settings. .

Great Job!  ;D

once the start basement of the town done with resources around, go ahead and start the glass / lumber chains. unlike the wood/stone/iron chains which will always deplecate by razing all things near, you get unlimited resources created from the earth, a slow but very stable pace of resources. And then, you continue to build and develop by choosing Advanced building and Lumber/bricks/glass housing alongs with the other resources that are now thinner and more rare in stock.

Yes, I'm already making glass, brisks, lumber and roof tiles. I'm not sure what you mean by Advanced building though.

I'm up to 20 years now on this map. Starting mining for coal so I can better tools and stuff.

advanced buidings is everything that needs lumber/bricks/copper/glassware/glass/etc.. which are not primary resources but secondary and tierce production materials.

there are many and will have more to come.

i like this concept. NECORA added similar with the pine  mod and TOM has tried it with the north,though i admit i haven't tested yet. the old way if their was food,a blueberry bush,roots,etc; the banies would throw it away when planting trees. weith the pine mod bird nests and traps got tore out by the laborers and the eggs and furs were wasted.now laborers can clear traps as they find them and gather more items. foresters are also less destructive now. think of it this way,your wife goes out to pick blueberries and sees your trap has caught a rabbit. do you want her to come home and rwait for you to get home from work and then tell you? by now it probably is dark. or do you prefer her to bring the rabbit home at least? LOL.

    that being said if something is overpowering like the flowers please mention that.you guys are doing a lot of testing and finding bugs. it is much appreciated.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Hawk on January 13, 2018, 06:57:46 PM
I went back into this map I started and treated the flowers and fodder like stone and iron/iron ore.
Red did include a button to harvest fodder and flowers so I just harvested the flowers and fodder from within the forester radius.
Now the foresters don't gather that stuff but instead spend their time planting and cutting. I don't think they actually cut more trees but it's a nice physiological play.  :)

You can trade flowers at the trading post for 1 unit. You can also make perfume with flowers and trade that for 8 units.
To make perfume you only need flowers and water.

The flowers do make the map look pretty though.

The jury's still out but after doing a few different starts I'm kind of getting a feeling the ground spawns are a tad too dense.  Not so much that the variety is bad, necessarily, but there's just so much of everything it takes quite a while to slog through it all if you're trying to get forestry going properly.  In fact, on the next one I think I'm going to start with fishing to buy some time for that instead of going my usual route.  Because you need to build everything else too, and that's slower because of the amount of things that need to be cleared, also.

Also, some intermediary construction buildings would be very helpful.  Maybe slower and less efficient than the full size version.  I've got my start reasonably dialed in but have yet to get a tailor up before running out of coats.  Which is fine, just tweaks the OCD a bit.  It's going to be a challenge for people who like getting schools up early.  And it would be cool to be able to hold off on building the full size versions in your actual town.  The ones I'm building early will probably be demolished later.

i already made a little changed. in the past i really wanted to get some colors and get a nice cover of flowers and back in that time, i made them kinda immortal (-1 everliving)
so i took it back now and make them dying like a tree

even if the spawn is slower, the fact they will always stay there, with years, they keep stacking. so the flora will be more moving , changing and refreshing.



but before to make an update, i want to add the mills so we can make some flour and bakeries going on :)

Actually, that reminds me of something that occurred to me earlier...If you are clearing everything, there's the usual tool for that.  But if you want to clear everything but trees for forestry it takes like 6 passes with the individual tools.  Some combo tools would be handy.  Like one for stone, iron, and copper and another for fodder, flowers, and food?

Flour! YAAAAYY!  ;D

I think I built the school about year 3, but I never did run out of clothes. Nope! Not me! I ran out of tools. LOL! Go figure that one out. LOL!
I started on Medium starting condition with 40 tools and 30 clothes and had to built a lumber mill for lumber to build the tailor and still ran out of tools before clothes.

You would then have to make smaller passes because the Bannies will have more to gather in one pass. Might work out about the same.

Very cool, Red.  It's mostly just an observation from a few hours of play.  Right now I'm just playing around with different starts and it occurred to me it might be a bit too dense. That's not to say it is though. It takes a bit to unchain your thinking from old approaches.  Thinking there might be new creative ways to utilize it all that's completely different from the usual.

Haha yeah, that's pretty much what it comes down to, it seems.  Tools vs clothes.  With a hard start, at least.  Which is why I'm thinking about starting with fishing on the next one.  It's almost reflexive to go with a forest cluster at this point...what I always do.  But with the amount of clearing involved it may be smoother to go fishing for food early, streamline the early buildings, then go for forestry.

We shall see. Back at it shortly. It's super fun experimenting with all of this.  Thank you, again, RK. :)

Eek!  Don't go crazy with it, RK.  Or change it at all if you're happy with it.  Was just an observation after a few hours of play. Feels like it slows things down a lot but that's not the worst thing necessarily. Extra challenge is good.

I was just mentioning it as it was something I'd noticed being a big difference. But that's not necessarily bad, either.  Mostly curious what others thought when playing, really.

Oh no! LOL  That's brutal.

I finally juggled out a super smooth start, got all the essentials built.  Just a school to go after this next house and I'm set on the basics, I think.  But, go figure, the hunter has gone a year with no kills.  Deer everywhere AROUND the circle but they know where not to go, it seems.  Down to 2 coats from start so hopefully soon.  Might just stick another in town till I can get the next cluster started.

Question...Am I losing my mind or did the school require Lumber before? Change it with this version?  Could have sworn it needed Lumber yesterday.

I just tried a hard start, without disasters, and lost most of the Bannies near the end of the first winter.
Maybe adding some smaller 'start' type buildings would help a bit, like a deer hunter and a smaller tailor and blacksmith; maybe a smaller woodcutter.
That would make the need for other mods less, or one would have to be very, very good at this game.  :)

Just thinking out loud.  ;)

The gotcha for me was trying to get everybody housed the first year...They hoard food and fuel in houses so trying to accommodate that I wasnt getting a smith up fast enough to not run out of tools. So by only building a couple houses the first year it kept that more manageable and I was able to skip the woodcutter the first year by harvesting fodder.  Took a lot of juggling but seemed to work.

We'll see how it goes with population though.  This is a lot slower than I've gotten used to lately but is about how I used to do my starts so should be okay.  Now I just need the hunter to bag some leather.

Fodder for heat.  :o Now that's a good idea, and I suppose what it's supposed to be for, at last in the beginning.

Question...Am I losing my mind or did the school require Lumber before? Change it with this version?  Could have sworn it needed Lumber yesterday.

nan, from the start it never required lumber but the costs are lower cause you dont get alot of iron bars from the start.

I just tried a hard start, without disasters, and lost most of the Bannies near the end of the first winter.
Maybe adding some smaller 'start' type buildings would help a bit, like a deer hunter and a smaller tailor and blacksmith; maybe a smaller woodcutter.
That would make the need for other mods less, or one would have to be very, very good at this game.  :)

Just thinking out loud.  ;)   

bah all basic food buildings dont require advanced contruction material, they should be easy still to build. i prefer not to make it too easy neither....

i hate "hard" cause you need to setup a gatherer building from the start and then assign 4 of your 6 adults on it. you are stuck with 2 laborers/job_changers for a good while, and that all year long. nothing gets cleared :S
i prefer alot a crop. in medium, i put 8 of my 10 of farming and in winter... i get a very powerful force which will go clear zones.

i need to setup a new hard for me ^^ like "medium-Hard" , a cart, few resources in the cart, but +1 crop random (no orchard, no livestocks... just 1 crop)

so. since my village burned to hell.... i started a new map. and i love this map !
this is a map with alot of forest every side but north that has a big lake. it is nice to put some sand pits and clay pits later on. Vey dense forest all around.


you should try it :
Very Large, Peak's Plain map , 905 978 387 (i dont think the fact it is at medium, fair , did put disaster OFF : has something to do with the map)

I love it, it is very ..... rustic :)


btw , i think i found a good setup for the % grass spawn chance and specially flowers. i am at year 4 and i have 32 flower in my barn. i dont hunt them , but just by clearing making my settlement.... i didnt got 500 flowers lol

Apparently map seed number doesn't determine deer seed. I found 2 deer (not packs-single deer) to the left and that's all. No other deer within reasonable distance.

I must be losing it, then. :P  Could have sworn that required Lumber before.  Now I'm wishing I'd educated earlier but think I'm going to stick with this one.  Maybe. lol

Yeah, they are good....Once you get over the initial hump it goes pretty smoothly.  Just like any game, I guess, but just feels a bit slower because of the extra clearing and needing to get some lumber together for a tailor.  But being able to use fodder as fuel kind of balances it out.  Might have to try an easy or medium start for fun.  Been ages since I've done one.  Kind of into this one but kind of wouldn't mind getting a school up earlier, too.  So, maybe I will when I get back later.

Having a lot of fun with this. Thanks again, Red. :)

Same. That's why I never use them. Even medium I never like where the barn is.  But while I'm mixing it up with this might be a fun change.  I'm interested to see how much easier it is than a hard start with this.

cows :
vanilla cattle : no milk, double meat/and leather when they die
Fresian cows : milk , are black & white. give half beef / and leather when they die
Red Fresian : milk , are RED & white. give half beef / and leather when they die

this is the system i used in RedCreamery:Cows

I like it because I can now turn up my graphics settings for this mod, now that you've dialed back on the fodder and flowers. I had to turn them down a good bit in the previous Betas.

I do miss all the color though. 

All in all, this version is playing very well. And thank you for the wind and water mills to make flour and other goodies.  ;D Will you be adding a water mill for lumber?

i will at some point for sure


i am playing different settings already... i get more flowers like that
but still previously before beta 4, i optimized abit those grass and flowers.

for example, the grass that is looking like wheat... i made them pass from 1400 to 900 which is a save of 35%
the flowers are kinda the same height as the grass and we notice them alot less

the settings i am playing i made the stats more look like onion although i placed them at 3 times the tree life.

Going way back to this post I made in this topic, I did a quick test and it turns out that Terrain Type doesn't change anything in regards to Map Seed number, when you have terrain types of different nature, such as in your Mod @RedKetchup.
Here's a screenshot of Plains and Peak's Plains with the same seed number.

So it would seem that only Map Seed and Terrain Size make a different map when you have just basic terrain types like this mod does.

Got a pretty good start...Looking good.  The ground spawns seem a lot more balanced than before.

What's the gold and silver for?

Ack...I just now saw the new beta 5 in my inbox.  Have already started a new one.

Is the harvest copper button the only change?  If so I'm going to stick with the old one till I start a new one.

Edit:  Sorry, I misread that.  No new download. :)

I also like the beta 5 and cannot express how much I'm enjoying this mod.  The textures are just right, the starts are beautiful, love the music-just a lovely mod. I have one question-are you going to add the black roof texture for all production buildings and school? 
BTW-thought I would add that it works with the New Flora mod if you put that above yours and doesn't affect your start conditions.  You just have to build the 2 buildings to gather the resources.

seems to work perfectly with the new flora :)
you still get both flowers and wild things :)

i didnt intended to put a dark roof on all productive buildings... it was my way to set things so you can know right away what is an housing and what is a commercial/production building just by the roof.
should I ?

thats 2 different things : CC = Silver, RK = Silver Ore. the silver from CC is very very very common and worth nothing : 3 value
mine worth hundreds of value and is extremly very rare.
probably same for gold


are you playing CC on top of the mod list ? or RK on top ?

I like both roofs but would love the option of the dark one on the new stuff.  It's unique and has a stands out in a good way.  Love that look, actually.

I think what @grammycat is referring to are the buildings that come with New Flora.  The mod includes a flax gatherer building, a "new foods" gatherer, and a wild honey gatherer.  The vanilla gatherer doesn't collect those things so you need the buildings.  You could say better than I, of course, but I assume they have to be coded into the buildings because the only ones I've seen that collect those are kid's Forest Outpost and Necora's pine stuff.  Everything else I've played with you need the new flora buildings.

Actually, I've intentionally not tested outside of actual play and haven't used other mods with this because I want to get a feel for the flow of it alone, but since this comes up, I wonder how your flax will jibe with new flora...I've had it show up twice with certain combos of mods before.  Since your NMT tailor recipes include flax that could be really cool to have handy.

Oh, reminds me, something I noticed you might want to be aware of...

The one I'm playing now was an Easy start, which isn't my usual, but fun for a change.  Easy starts start with 5 or 6 houses.  The houses being loaded are the "NMT Little Houses" not the new wood houses.  Which is fine because they are the same, except the NMT ones don't have an upgrade button.  For people who do easy starts that might be helpful.

oh ok. yeah i personally edit the vanilla gatherer, one for the new mesh... and 2 i have plans also to gather other kind of food that is already setup in beta 06


about the flax, i use the CC flax files (NMT does too) so ... if Tanny used it too... should be all compatible

I have come across a problem with your RKEditorChoiceEdition and the Forest District mods. I am using CC:Journey with RKEditorChoiceEdition above and the Forest District between the two. (Mod list and load order below). I really like Black Liquid's work and the effort the @kralyerg has put into stand alone modules many of the components.

The Black Liquid work is fantastic and I keep hoping to see more stand alone modules made available. Why they seem to have abandoned their work and site is a speculation I chose to no delve into here.

I really like the editor and would like a little guidenance in where in the load order Forest District should be placed. Currently I receive dots for all of the stand alone districts and the main district container does not appear at all. Would like to be able to use both. Very fine work.

My mod list:

RidiculousStorage
RKEditorChoiceEdition
NMTForestCenter
ColonialCharterJ
banishedUItownnames
banishedUImaps
banishedUImod
banishedUImt
banishedUIprofessions
Gridlines
Hunting
Radius

Place NMT Forest Center ontop of Editor you will have access to all forest center items.
i need to update the Lumbermill of Forest Center though, the numbers arent the same (it has the cc numbers which doesnt make sense to me)

You need to keep in mind that all the Forest Center items are in "Community Toolbar". In last beta of Editor i've move the Editor Lumbermill to the community icon. i shouldnt have done that and should have stayed in the vanilla resource toolbar. the effect you get is you see 2 lumbermill icon. 1 is from the Center, 1 is from the Editor at same place.

all the editor items (which were originally from center) are inside the vanilla toolbars and they are replacing the vanilla items made from Luke.



the intention is : include mods in Editor, in parts or in entirely. but if you want to use the original mod... it should be placed on top, always.

This mod is a total conversion that has only been in beta for less than a week.  It's still being reworked in many ways and RK has said he's going to be adding new things during the coming weeks and months.

Which is not to say that it won't or shouldn't be compatible with CC or other mods.  But how about we give him some time and space to work on his own content before complicating it with how it works with other mods?  We need to be looking for bugs, balance issues, and possible changes and additions to suggest for this mod, right now.  It's still very early, yet.

yeah exactly. only 1 mod will never be compatible with this (absolutely 0% compatible) is The North. CC is still some kind of compatible, like 80%, you just cant get the terrains and starting contidions.

3.3 UPDATE:
- Changed the numbers of the Lumbermill stand-alone and Lumbermill District. instead to use 5 logs to make lumbers, you only need 2 logs now.

the problem is you get 5 lumber from 5 logs. and you process that so fast you get out of logs in a blink of the eye.
with 5 from 2, you spend less logs, you double the production which is in line of everything i usually do : process it and get double. another thing i always found weird, from a tree you should get like 10-20 planks of woods and maybe more

Always struck me as odd, too.  Or only 4 firewood from an entire log with an educated worker.  Not very educated if you can't figure out how to get more than 4 pieces of firewood from an entire tree. :P

This is the next mod i am doing presently, a big mod which regroups all the things i've done and i liked the most. i am trying to make them all work together in an immersive atmosphere and i am creating alot of little things all around in hope to ciment everything :)

some people offered to me to help and test it. They report and comment what they think about it and report things they find.

it is in beta and there will be alot of changes as the beta goes on. most of the time, the saves arent compatible with next beta and often they have to be deleted. and restart over.

Thought about something like that as there are often byproducts in all types of production.  And it would be really cool to have more of in the game.  Imagine the problem, though, would be the multiple flags involved.  Typically, the need for firewood is constant and grows.  Moreso if you trade with it.  Lumber only gets used in construction and even with relatively inefficient production it's pretty easy to make a lot more of it than you use, in my experience.  So if you are relying on that one building to supply both you could run into a sneaky firewood crisis because the construction cap was reached if you aren't keeping an eye on it.  Or vice versa if your construction outpaces your firewood consumption.

I took a quick break to test something in The North, but I'm back to your mod now.

I haven't seen a reason yet to collect iron ore and copper ore with one button yet, but I'm not sure I like two separate buttons instead of one.  ;)

Also, is the gold ore and silver ore just for trading? Will there be some way to convert them from ore, or is that even necessary?

no it wont unfortunatly because i think a silver ore at 3 value (and gold at 10)... is kinda low if it would been higher....
my plan is making a foundry, smelt those (wont be the blacksmith though) and get another layer , Jewelry Maker, which will turn those into jewelries :)


Collect Iron Tool : will be back again for only Iron Ore.
Collect Copper Tool : will Collect Copper but also Collect Other Minerals

bah i made some effort for this. not only wood stone and iron is used for building materials: i added Bricks, i added Rooftiles a while ago. i added Lumber, i added Glass, i added Thatch (1 building so far...) some buildings needs also Copper...

about heating houses : now bannies can use Thatch as equal as Firewood... they still can use Coal (unless you use a mod to deny it)

I can only recommend one thing; adult children. They are very good in repairing and maintaining computers cheap (a good meal is the normal payment). They also buy new computers now and then, even if the old ones aren't broken. So you can inherit a reasonable new computer from time to time. ;)

@Nilla - Know any good adult children in my area? My wife and I never had any kids. We're in our 60's now so I don't see that happening.  ;D

It could be the power supply. If that's all it is, I could probably fix that. Anything more would be beyond my financial means.

It sounds and feels like the hard drive starts spinning, and all the cooling fans run (4), as does the fan on the processor heat sink, but the fans on both the video cards don't run. Which tells me neither card is getting power.
I seriously doubt both cards would go bad at the same time, unless it was a power supply issue to begin with.

I'm going to do some testing this afternoon and see if I can find the problem. I did build this computer about 10 years ago so it's actually quite surprising that it's lasted this long. I have replaced the RAM and vid cards but that's all. Everything else id as it was when I built it.

I still have my Internet computer but it's not capable of gaming, and it's a Dell.  >:( It was free though so I guess I can't complain.  ;D

I hope you get it fixed Hawk.  I never used a pc until my husband died in 1999, but it's filled a lot of lonely nights for me since I discovered it.  If you have any pc repair shops in your area, they sometimes have used or refurbished parts.

Thanks for all the well wishes folks. I might take it up to a local shop and see if they can troubleshoot it. Depending on what they find will determine on whether it gets fixed or not.

Hawk, maybe you will be able to play Banished on your Dell computer.  I don't have a special "gaming computer", just a Dell PC that uses Windows 7.  It plays Banished fine.  It takes a long time to load if I have a lot of mods, but after that, no problem.

@RedKetchup Just realized while playing that neither of the markets stock anything production related, just the basic food, tools, clothes and fuel.  Thought I'd check to see if this was intentional.  Think you mentioned that you were going to be fleshing out the NMT stuff so we will eventually be getting the specialized markets?

My layout was based around having production supported by markets so I'm going to bag this one.  Couple of other things I'd like to do differently too.  Thinking I might add EB's Materials Store for the next one as a workaround.

Just thought I'd ask what you had planned for this.

Oh, also, wanted to note that Silver Ore and Gold Ore are going in Construction stockpiles rather than Minerals.

Looking forward to seeing what you have planned for that. :)

I have considered giving that a try, but even if the Dell will run Banished, it most assuredly won't run The Long Dark, and I like that game too.

the market is intentional, they only store what bannies need for their home and their life quality. it will be eventually some industrial markets.
about ore, gonna go check in an hour or 2... i am presently in the design of the open sky mines. i asked the meshes to CC and i am taking them as base for my meshes. i redraw them completly, but the CC ones are my model. they will look very similar, although they will have around 18% of original polygons.

while at it, i have a question.

i want to do 3 mines. and we have : Iron, Copper, Coal, Stone, and other rare minerals like Gold, Silver and Gems. the rare ones will only go in a total random 3rd mine which will have all those names. but i need help for the 2 first ones:

iron, copper, coal and stones. i need to pair them by 2. do i put coal with iron ? and copper with rocks ? or i do other combinations ?

Ya, I see your dilemma.  It could go any way, really, depending on personal preference.  On one hand, it would seem logical to keep the metals together and coal / stone in the other.  But then, iron / coal traditionally go together in the game so people might expect that.  Or there could be some realistic geological thing that makes more sense with either of those combos or a different one, but couldn't really say.  Not really sure, honestly.  I'd be interested in hearing what others have to say about it.

It's great you are using the flat mines.  Always thought those were cool in CC.  Interested to see what you do with them.

Post by: RedKetchup on January 19, 2018, 08:56:18 PM
yeah thats a dilemna, and i need answers/thought soon since i tend to put on the mesh what you should get ( for example, there are sand buckets on the sand pit, there is clay buckets in the clay pit...)
so if it is a Iron/copper mine... i need to put iron ore and copper ore on the mesh. and put stones on the stone mine ^^

the mesh created isnt finished yet. i reproduced the CC open mine but i need to personalize it to RK way of to do things :)
i added my traditional fence all around, and designing now the resources on the floor mesh so you can get a visual of what you are expecting of this mine :)

I did some online research and iron ore and copper can be found together in some mines.  Also as a coal miner's granddaughter, I can tell you that stone and coal definitely go together-think of all the blasting of rock done to get at the coal veins.

@RedKetchup - I managed to get Banished installed on my Internet computer. It doesn't run as well as it did on the gaming machine, but it does run.

I built a few of the 3 story houses and noticed the builders were taking a long time to build one of the stories. Checking the build window could explain why (see the attached screenshot). You should check the 3rd story build cycle settings.  ;)
I do apologize but I don't remember exactly which one it was.  :-[

Played a new map and noticed a couple of things that may or may not be worth mentioning.

In the first image below you can see that the Fodder Farmers do a much better job of collecting flowers than the Florist, even though the area of collection is a lot smaller for the Fodder Farmer.

Also note in the second screenshot that the community health is 5 full hearts and there's 3,768 herbs collected but no Herbalist. As a matter of fact, I never built an herbalist in this map.
Is this telling me the Herbalist is not necessary? I checked the Gatherer, Forester, and a couple other trades and found no herbs collected by any of them. I only selected Collect Everything once on a small area of the map.

As I mentioned before, I'm not all that good at grabbing screenshots, but @RedKetchup - if there's any you see that you think might be good enough for the loading screen, let me know. I have the original bmp's you can use to edit/crop as you need.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Hawk on January 22, 2018, 06:15:17 PM
I figured out the herbs deal. When you select to gather flowers, the laborers also gather herbs. I guess flowers and herbs are the same thing to them.  :)
Then, I guess, the herbs get distributed to markets and the Bannies get their medicine from there.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on January 22, 2018, 07:23:55 PM
thanks you ! @Hawk !

i will need to check that. the thing about the herbs, doesnt explain though how the citizens can get their health back. it is not the herb that give health back, thats the use point of the herbalist. you said you didnt built an herbalist building... so i dont know , i need to go check files. did I allowed the florist use that healer function ?


and thanks for the screenshots :) i will need to work them though since you are using a 4:3 monitor resolution ? i ll need to cut some pixels on top.. at botttom... enough to get the 1600x900 :)
Thanks :)

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on January 22, 2018, 07:48:29 PM
i just checked, there is an herbalist function inside the florist but it has no "healer" function, so they cannot go there with their herb to get an half of heart back

herbalist has that function but not the florist:
HealerDescription healer { }


or their diet is very good... or something else


and flowers arent herbs they are custom7

RawMaterialFlags _flags = Custom7;

can you take some more time and try to spy their behavior ?

It's not the Florist that picking the herbs. It's the laborers that pick herbs when you select the gather flowers button from the toolbar.

yes the tool will collect flowers and herbs. but thats just the tool. i did it cause i integrated Busy Laborers of Darkbibou, in parts. he had a tool to collect herbs... i modified it to collect flowers too with it, that way , i didnt need a tool to collect herb + a tool to collect flowers. it does both

but it doesnt flag your flowers as herbs


as you can see your last screenshot, you have 12 herbs and 24 miscelleous in your state utility window


edit: so in your city, you should have 3768 real herbs. so what they do with it ?

Right. The laborers or the game don't consider flowers to be herbs. The laborers just gather herbs when gathering flowers.

That's what I'm unsure about. My guess is the Bannies go to the markets to get their herbs/medicine. Or maybe to the hospital. I don't know for sure. All I know is I never did build an Herbalist.

The situation should be duplicate-able since the only mods I have installed (aside from yours) are banishedUImaps (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=99), banishedUImod (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=307), banishedUImt (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=185) (all by @Discrepancy) and flatten terrain (https://banishedinfo.com/mods/view/35-Flatten-Terrain-Tool?ref=252) by GimmeCat.

I'll load that old map up and see if I can figure something out by trying to follow a Bannie.

I just followed a laborer for about 4 years and he never did pick up any herbs.
Then, just out of curiosity, I checked the inventory and found I still had 3,768 herbs - 4 years later, so it would seem that in this play the Bannies don't need herbs to get or stay healthy.

I guess I'm supplying them with a good diet.  :-\

I also tried the flower gatherer who did pick up flowers and herbs which showed up correctly in the trading post.  One problem I had was my health fell to 4 so I built an herbalist.  The bannies would go to the herbalist with 4 hearts and leave with 4 hearts.  I'll have to play more tomorrow to further test the herbalist.  They are gathering herbs but not sure if they are using them on the bannies.

Very nice!

it is 6x6 with road. i like the 6x6 because it works perfect with 3x housing, works perfect with the market... and alot of my mesh 6x6 i did since couple of months

also about The Foundry:
the BS can do iron ore => iron and copper ore => copper .... but i asked to take 3 ores. the foundry only takes 2
a BS works for 5 work units, foundry 4 work units
so i made it so it is an avantage to build The Foundry

+ it can do gold bars and silver bars


i need to do some very minor adjustments.. .and the footprint.
but i wanted to see it in game :) and now i saw it... i can go to sleep ^^ it took me 11hrs to do this building.

Perhaps just change the texture on the lower door/window of the foundry furnace? Should be made of metal. Right now it has the same wood texture as the main doors.

fixed :) (took the .png posted)

a made little various tweaks also.

and i elaborated the process and the values from gold ore/ silver ore to gold bar / silver bar.

i ve checked what CC did... i tweaked a bit the numbers


the value of silver ore was 3, the value of the bar was 12 , while the gold ore was 10 and the gold bar was 12 ... and they also take 18 value of industrial fuel...


here what i did:
silver ore : 12 , silver bar : 30
So you take 2 ore at 12 (24) + 3 coal at 6 (18) = 42 value. and you create 2-3 bars of 60-90 value (from 42 cost value) so you make 142%-214% profit

gold ore : 24, gold bar : 50
So you take 2 ore at 24 (48) + 3 coal at 6 (18) = 66 value. and you create 2-3 bars of 100-150 value (from 66 cost value) so you make 151%-227% profit


if you compare, Ale : you take 30 fruits (30 value) and get 7-10 ale at 8 value each. you do 186% to 266% profit

if you had another layer, taking those rare metals and make jewelries (+ also gems) you will able to make more profit from the original ores.

Honestly I don't know what to think of this jewel maker building. To me it looks more as a residential building. But then I guess there isn't any good RL example to work with. Perhaps it should look more "workshoppy". But that's just my opinion.

i dont think there is any of that kind of design for a building, or if there is one, it is kind of unique.

i will need to define the patterns. what do you think it should do and how it should go ?


the thing first i try to imagine a silver bar or a gold bar and how much things you should do with that quantity ? i cannot tell if those bars are similar and as big as those we can see sometime in movies... and in my mind i try to compare the size of a ring, necklace, bracelets or brooch and i cannot understand how can 1 bar or 2 bar and create only 1 ring ?? it should more contain like 50 rings in that ?? LoL , so i dunno and wish have opinions.

a silver bar will worth 30 and a gold bar worth 50.

I think many pieces of jewellery should be made from the gold/silver bar, but make it have a long work required, so it is really slow and labor intensive.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: elemental on January 27, 2018, 05:50:44 PM
Just my first impression, but the foundry/smelter looks a bit small next to the jeweler. It's an interesting design, it just looks a bit small. Might not really matter if you don't build them next to each other though. I know people like small buildings, too.

recipes ?
a silver bar + 3 coal + 20 work units = 5 silver rings of 30 value each ??


-----------------------------

since i need to define myself the recipes and probably use coal as last modification helpers to turn those bars of metal in something that look like a ring or a brooch... I made some modifications to the building : replaced firewood by boxes full of coal and also changed the JewelMaker sign with a Ring to rule them all !! :)

These modifications have lead to make another building, a close buddy : The Gem Cutter which will take care to pick up gems, cut them, and determine its kind and value. I used the same building and changed all textures around. Deleted and moved around the furnace which became a simple fireplace (no need to smelt anything) and i mirrored the mesh left-right.

i did this because i had some random "recipes" "patterns" in my mind and it wouldnt be working with a straight process of taking this and that and get this.

so the Gem Cutter will take "Gems" (which worth 200value) and will get 6 kind of precious gems from those randomly :
5% : Diamond (1000value)
10% : Ruby (400value)
10% : Sapphire (300value)
10% : Emerald (250value)
25% : Topaz (80value)
40% : Amethyst (60value)

The Jewel Maker job will be take precious metal and precious gems and craft : Rings, Necklaces, Bracelets, Circlets and Brooches. I will probably do a total of 10 recipes for those, 2 each, one made from silver, one made from gold, silver will take the lowest value while the golden one will take the most valuable ones. i still have to determine the patterns(recipes)

Post by: Hawk on January 28, 2018, 06:14:34 AM
Maybe I'm missing something. Currently 1 silver ore is valued at 300 for trade. So now they have to take the silver ore, transform it into a silver bar (value?) then make 5 rings valued at 30 each.
Seems like a lot of work for no extra value.

I do like where you're going with this whole idea though. I think it's pretty cool. I'm just not sure the values work out good.

it was only a temporary value i gave to it. then people asked to be compatible with [CC] which has almost no value because it can be mine super easy. also the fact in the beta, there was no way to get those other than maybe 24 silver spawn and 6-8 in a medium or large map.

and i added my own mine too to get those. and with dicussing with Kralyerg, i think we agree on prices and quantity (making it more rare).
the new value of Silver is 12 for the Silver Ore, 30 for the Silver Bar. The new value of Gold is 24 for the Gold Ore, 50 for the Gold Bar.

you will be able to mine those and get those all along your game time.

Post by: Hawk on January 28, 2018, 06:42:13 AM

I'm curious about something. When you play on easy mode, do you modders have any control on where the houses are built?
The reason I ask is I always thought it was a bit silly; the way they were pre-built. You can't even get a market in the middle.

entirely have the control

Ah! If your market fits in the default house building locations, that's fine for me while playing your mod.
I was mainly wondering if you folks had control over that. I guess you do.

I just wonder why Luke did it like he did.  :-\

I generally refer to play on medium or hard anyway.

So if I'm looking at those stats right, if the 2 houses set at 180 rotation had their X offset set at -11 and the house with the rotation set at 270 had its Y offset set at 4, then the default market would fit in the middle?

the only issue i have with values is how will it work with another mod like the "my precious" or "CC frontier" add-on modular set.if we make silver pferring for the fort parts will the value be changed and cause any issues or conflict so the other mods don't work? it would be good to see the silver and gold outputs increased from the  othe rmods.using it to trade as TOM has done is also interesting.

     RED since you can change building placements for the starts,can you add odd things to the maps? like CC added the skull mountians to some maps.,ship wrecks,ruins? it would be neat for bannies to stunble onto an abandoned town,or some ruins,a pirate cave,etc now and then.

    next we need to delete the edge mountains so the map looks like it continues to anther section.then add waves to the ocean.then slap me for coming up with too many crazy ideas..........
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on January 28, 2018, 09:27:42 AM
yeah they proceeded like this. but keep in mind, since the map is random generated, you only can say : ok, put a ruin at X-xxx or x+xxx and Y-xxx or Y+xxx. you have to decide the numbers. so you dont have any idea what the game will generate, maybe it can fall in middle of a lake or the river


you cannot ask to randomly select the coords and you cannot ask to put it on the 0'gound.

unless maybe you dont use that interface and you go with natural ressource that is spawning like a gold vein.

Based on what I see in a default game, it looks like the 2 houses on the south would have to move further south by 3 tiles, making them offsetY = -12 and the house on the east would have to move 3 tiles, making it offsetX = 5 in order for the default market to fit in that square.
This is all based on the coordinates of all the buildings you listed a couple posts up. I don't have the modkit installed so I can't verify.

Not that I'm asking you to do that Red. Just an observation.  ;) You're market fits fine when playing easy in your mod, which is good enough for me.  :)

I have a question, (Probably in here somewhere - but...) When testing the editor's choice, what mods are you all using with it; or are you all testing using "debug"; or using nothing else?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Hawk on January 28, 2018, 04:01:04 PM
The only mods I have installed while testing are banishedUImaps (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=99), banishedUImod (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=307), banishedUImt (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=185) (all by @Discrepancy) and flatten terrain (https://banishedinfo.com/mods/view/35-Flatten-Terrain-Tool?ref=252) by GimmeCat.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Maldrick on January 28, 2018, 04:18:24 PM
Ya, I found a flatten tool handy and would suggest something like EB's Materials Store for supplying production buildings since the new markets only stock household items.  Red said he's going to have his specialized NMT markets in eventually.  Kid recently added an f-variant for the black roof in this set, too, so there's that.  Other than that I found everything pretty well covered so far.  Maybe whatever deco and road mods you like to use.

DUH!!!! I should have known that. LOL!

To me, if you're testing a mod, it should not include other mods that could have any affect on the mod you're testing. Those other mods are great for playing but could have unknown affects on the mod being tested that could cause confusion for the modder & tester.
The mods I chose to add do not have any affect on Red's mod so I felt it was safe to use them. I've not used the Materials Store or the Flora mod but it seems that, because Red has included flowers and thatch, the Flora mod could have some affect on testing, and the Materials Store could have the possibility of not catching any possible shortcomings with storage/distribution of what Red has added to his mod.

Please feel free to correct my thoughts if you feel I'm a little off base.  :)

for next build, i am gonna add a bunch of stuff that were in medieval 2.04 and update it to 3.0. they will mainly be all the individual food process buildings they werent fitting under the multifloors (smokehouse, salt house , dry house... that kind of stuff)

Now that I see what it looks like after moving those three houses to allow the vanilla market to fit in the square in an easy start, I'm not so sure it was such a good idea. It kind of throws the square out of whack, as far as roads go. LOL!
Now both the vanilla market and your market fit in that square, but what do we do with the extra space when your market is built?  :-\

I really didn't think you would make those changes for release. I was just curious. Now I know.  ;D

Besides, when it comes to decorating, that's not one of my fortes.  ::)

I see the Gatherer now collects different types of berries, wild berries I assume. But where do the eggs come from; wild ducks or chickens?

yup it is one of the new feature :) the wild grass will spawn tons of new things :) all kind of berries but also the gatherers can put the hands on some wild bird nests :)

Very interesting, Red.  I've never used ND, just your fodder and additional forest spawns like New Flora and Maritimes stuff.

At the risk of a spoiler, is it worth building a gatherer in the grassy areas to harvest these new spawns?

Well, at least the upgrade  works.  :)

So far I'm liking the newest version, but I haven't got very far yet. I haven't set up any jewelery production or mining yet. No greenhouses or flower/perfume production yet either.

finally , midnight here  :'(

and the tooltip of the upgrade button is fixed.
when i was trying to fix that :

or i lost the extra materials tooltip of the buildings on the bar (when they had like 4-5-6 material requirement and were showing only the 3 first items)...
or in the beta it was already missing and i didnt saw it before tonight.

can you tell me if you mouse over the townhall or hospital, or gem cutter or jewerly maker if you see only 3 materials or all 4-5-6 materials in the tooltip ?







since 1:30 PM i lost time on that. took me almost 11 hours of bad yelling loud to try to fix that and it wasnt being fixed  :'(

thanks hawk for the screens and the answer to my question.


@Tom Sawyer  in fact you cannot put glasses all around if you put a fire, the game doesnt play the particles behind a wall. even if it is semi transparent at 80% ... it is still a wall and the game doesnt show it  :P

i know it is not really intelligent to put a roof there... should take in fire. it was already there and i let it there for the look. if there would be glasses too... the glass would become black, cabonized, full of soot.



about the Fireworker.... if you dont assign anybody to the townhall... the fire wont burn, you need to assign one worker.
i hesitated between FireWorker or Mayor (since it is still a townhall)

Well, there is no cruising through a map now with this mod. You have to pay attention to the Foundry, Jeweler and Gem Cutter, as well as the Lumber Mill, Glass Maker and the Brick and Roof Tile maker.

I like it.  ;D

No problems found so far. I still have a few trades to build, like the Fodder Farmer and Florist. I think a couple others too.

i am more to ... lower alot the cost instead of triple it ^^


i also reduced the size, when you compare the doors... with the height of the citizens... it was so much disproportionned :(

Medium Barn: 6x4, 5500w
Small Barn: 5x3, 4000w
and Tiny Barn: 3x2, 2000w (i will probably lower it to 1600w though.)

in those storage left to do : the Granary, the Root Cellar, the Grain Silo.

It was always an impressive building. Nice that you use it here. Shouldn't it need much more building materials than in that screenshot? I mean something like 100 times as much as a normal house. I find it ought to be something you have to save materials for, that takes years to build.

By the way, I have followed this thread with great interest, even if I haven't said much. I do remember that you said at the beginning, Red, that this is not a RK megamod. The way it has developed, I must say; it is! ;) :)

bah i can add a bit more. the old concept was : it was a wonder, and people can do it once in their lifetime of gamer. Now i wish to have people to try to put it in every single map they will do. so where is the frontier between : to build it everytime, and never build it , as material requirement ?

yeah maybe i can add more lumbers... a tiny bit of stones, double or triple the gold and silver, moderately add more glass....



-------------


about RK megamod ... bah there is tons of things i made and wont be back: for example like choochoo... training camp... smuggler cave.... city roads.... boston house.... plymouth....
NMT2.04 should be back in 90% and i add alot more things to it that never been made before (made by me i mean^^)

if it is a real megamod ? i dunno. i think it is more a RK Special Edition :)

I will post some pics on another thread. I have a massive 11000 + citizens. I mostly use NMT, DS Village and Kids mods. I can't wait for new NMT to start a new village , haha  ;)

Oh and BTW the largest map is not big enough for me. Is there a way to make an even bigger one. I make a lot of Parks... lol
I'll post some pics later.

i reduced the size of it and scaled it down of 20% ish... and it is still huge. i tried to make the front door more in scale with the height of an adult citizen while staying as imposing doors.

i did upgraded its membership to 800 citizens.


about map, i added a very large 640x640 new setup (the large vanilla default large map is 512x512) i've heard there are alot of crash cause the memory it takes with the huge map mods(1024?).
i dunno maybe i can add another layer of 720x720 ??

Oh that's awesome 800 membership is great.

I'm currently using the Very Large map from CC i just don't remember what the specific size is but i think its probably a 640 x 640.

bah i will probably add another hunting tower with a look more suitable with Medieval Town. and get its meat power ... but thats all.

i hope people will still add some my other mods they want to their mod list. that way , there is still an individual setup based on people's preference.

I'd like to chime in here and let you all know that most of Red's mods are working well with the Editor's choice Beta.   I've been playing the Beta with the old mods - trying to find the ones that won't work with the Beta.  So far, "Garden Walls Utility" and  "Medieval Clay Pit" are not working, but "Training Camp" works so far.   I've noticed a few issues with the Menus, Lots of dots instead of Icons, but I think they are repeated mods from old mods that are in the beta that are causing this.    I will keep you all posted as I find mods that don't work, but so far all my faves from Kid, DS and EB are working well.   I'll report the ones that don't work as I find them!     
By the way, Red, I must compliment you on the music, absolutely wonderful.  I find myself humming along and tapping my feet.   Love it!

it is normal and should not be used, they are 100% fully integrated in RK Editor Choice and no longer expected to still use. at some point some old design/texture need to be deleted and, mourn and continue to live without it :)

yes everything from fodder function is back and extended to a point it never reached


next beta build will start to be : Open betas.
next build will contain all the nmt building but the corner/T houses (and archeology). archeology will totally disappear. the 1st floor business that fit under the house will come in the next patch after.

@brads3 I have over 200 mods in my everyday game.   I just added the Editor's Choice at the top and am deleting the items that won't work, such as NatDiv, DS Terraains, Gardenwalls Utility and Full Clay Pit.   The CC compatibility is loaded but didn't help with the fodder.   The clay pit from the editor's choice works beautifully instead of the old one.  Fodder farmer is no longer needed because of the plethora of fodder growing wild.  DS Small village is working well with everything loaded, so far I'm very happy with my results.

2 questions about those 2 things:

why do you need help with the fodder ?

and the 2nd one is more a statement: fodder farmer is inside RK Editor Choice , should be somewhere in the toolbars.

1. Early on in the game I found that some of the older buildings (from other mods) still require thatch/fodder for building, I thought a fodder farmer would establish an area just for growing fodder so I wouldn't have to harvest it manually.

2. I saw that there is a manual harvest for fodder, but I'm not sure where there is a Fodder farmer in the Editor Choice - I'll look again for a farmer!

None of the buildings in Red's Editor's Choice need thatch/fodder to build them.

The Fodder Farmer that is a part of Red's Editor's Choice and works basically the same as a Forester. The Fodder Farmer plants and harvests fodder, which is used by the Stable (along with water), which then produces fertilizer which is needed for greenhouses.

Post by: brads3 on February 01, 2018, 07:03:31 AM
@adelegarland  i shake your hand that is 1 way to do it. throw everything at it at once and see what hapens. i would have moved it lower in the mod order though.it would be neat to know how the mods you shut down would react then. then too the CC comp mod might be more helpful. did you use the debug to find errors and save you from finding them mid-game?with an extensive mod like this,the debug and checking trade posts or townhall inventories can find blank tags quickly.

       i agree with the other testers,that it originally needed tested alone to find bugs.it is neat to see it tested with other mods. i am curious as to how other mods will work with it,when placed above it. you do have a lot of mods,glad you have no errors.yes i know several like the fodder and nat div aren't needed now.however it might have been interesting to see what would hapen with them enabled. sometimes a test like that will give a wierd or odd change.when the 2 were tested originally we had fodder and flowers all over the maps. sometimes the game will do different than what we expect. sometimes crazy leads to discovery.LOL
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Hawk on February 01, 2018, 07:05:33 AM
Red adjusted the fodder and flowers so that they aren't near as dense as they were.

Plus, as I mentioned, the Fodder Farmer is part of Red's mod so a secondary fodder mod is no longer needed.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 01, 2018, 07:06:01 AM
Fodder Farmers: there is one somewhere in the toolbars, and his job is right what you said, etablish a circle with just fodder and harvest it when they are mature :)

and there is a manual feature too in case you need some fodder real quick :)

i have 1 building in RK Edition that needs fodder in order to build the building : Apiary
if you use other mod that need fodder it will be compatible.

also the stables need fodder as input.

but the buildings will work perfectly

Hi all
I've removed Nat Div and DS Terrains completely - also NMT3.1 Canals and New medieval town v 2.04.1.0.6.   Kid's Forest outpost and a fee others were created to use thatch, but Fodder works fine! I liked the little thatch farmer that was in Nat Div, I usually created an area just for growing and harvesting my grasses for thatch.   I like the Editor's Choice better because I harves fodder and it turns to thatch instantly, skipping a step!  Nice!
I'm still seeing a bunch of dots instead of icons, I think because I have Red's individual mods still installed and they are trying to show up in the community toolbar at the same time as the ones from Editor's Choice.   See the picture...

you dont get the starting condition random map but out of that, the mod works great !!!

in resource , you will find a Nat Div building which act the exact same way as Fodder Farmer. The difference, the foresters with plant Nat Div Grass which will spawn Nat Div wild food :)

and also, Nat Div will change the building requirement of the Wood house. it still has my model but it will require + 12 fodder-thatch to build the woodhouse. and thats ok :)

work great !! i would say 90% compatible  8)

@RedKetchup The NMT storage is back!  A definite favorite.  I still have your old Pangea Root Cellar in my standard set and use it constantly.  Always loved the medium and small NMT barns, too.

Just to throw this in since you've been working on storage...Ever think about doing a barn that would fit under the 3 story houses like the NMT markets and whatnot?  Like a "city storage" of sorts.  When I've built big city blocks with NMT it becomes kind of a challenge finding places to fit in the regular barns and always thought it would be cool to have an option like that since production buildings like bakery and butchers do go there.

Red-just a small thing but may be useful.  Could you include your old dairy as it takes quite a bit of advanced material to build the creamery?  I really like the many new things that the gatherer can collect now.  My current town is 15 years old and still has 5 hearts without an herbalist-maybe due to the variety of foods?

Storage Stash...Is that the old override that increases the size of the vanilla barn and Delvr specialized stockpiles?

If so, no, I don't think so.

But if you look in the discussion thread for EB's conversion of Delvr's stockpiles to 107 he made a small override for those.  Not as big as the original, but helps.  I'm not a fan of the default stockpile size, myself.  Only override I usually use, really, but almost always use it.

yes i can also include the lesser version of creamery into it. it was inside 2.0

keep in mind, people need to be minded to go for advance materials as normal progression. specially lumber, the lumber tech is more an advantage because it makes you last longer with your wood industry (taking 2 logs to make 5 lumber - it quickly more than double your wood stock)


about Pangaea root cellar ... the root cellar in 3.0 is the same one which was also included in the 2.0

Well, I've played 56 years on this map and haven't run into any problems. I haven't figured out what to do with salt. I guess it's a trade item. I've built every production building and they all worked fine.
I do like the updated Florist. With the smaller radius it does a much better job.

I like the pit mines but digging for coal takes a lot of labor. I have 2 coal mines with 6 minors each and most of the coal goes to the Bannies houses, but I do have enough left to serve the Blacksmiths (3 - all making Carbon Tools) and Glass Maker.

I may keep playing this map a bit more as I still have a good bit of land left but I'm starting to struggle feeding the masses. LOL!

really looks great on the mini map. i wish to see at some point some most closest look and scenes :)

i let vanilla feature to have homes use coal as heater but i dont think they will prefer coal over firewood and thatch. maybe a problem with the setup of your coal/firewood nearest stockpiles ?

If you click on the Modify link for your post, you should see something like the screenshot below. Just uncheck the images you want deleted from the post and attach new images.

I wasn't really thinking about you using any of the shots I added. I didn't think they would be good enough. I included the small mini-map to show where the shot was taken on the map.

Looking forward to the next update. I'm in Aug. - year 59 on this map now with 673 citizens. I've got 124 farmers now, and more on the way. That should keep 'em fed, along with the herdsmen and botanists .  ;D

while doing the old salty and smokey,did you consider the other meats? duck,bison,pheasants,etc? or butcher shop for that matter.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 02, 2018, 07:12:12 PM
yeah considering it :)

people will have plenty of choice with the meat :) send to the butcher, send to the smokery, send to the saltery or send to the dry shack :D


while we are at it....

i had an idea, i dunno if people got alot of problem with that kind of ... idea....

whats about to make plenty of population animals, all with the same mesh/anim mesh, but named differently to give all the kind of meat the Watch Tower was providing ? (they all will look deers)
for sure i would have to lower the number of packs of animal in each kind because the map would be filled with roaming animals and that can lead to some lag.....
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on February 02, 2018, 08:09:32 PM
umm dang bumped the wrong key and deleted what i was typing. i don't think i am reading you right. what i read is 1 animal skin or pic but when hunted is different meats. so a deer becomes beef,pork,mutton,duck,etc. that i don't like. CC has added ducks,though they were overpowered. hunters seemed to bring in more ducks and feathers and less deer and leather.TOM has grouse,which harvests as chicken. they would work for pheasants or maybe turkeys.
      CC has "all the wild things" as a start condition.checked it out once a long time ago. takes all the livestock and spreads them all over the map. course they went overboard and did the same thing with grains and other crops.you couldn't place these in pasture but could hunt them.from what i remember this was cheated too far left.the animals were over abundant in large herds everywhere. but could antlers be added to make elk,or mountain goats from sheep,or the chickens colors changed slightly or size to be turkeys or pheasnts,pigs slight change makes them wild boars??
all without totally overhauling the animal program. they would be animated. coding would take changing the names from cows to elk,pig to wild boar,etc. i am not sure how the animals are coded,it may be impossable even or just some minor altering. in FS13,you could change the colors on the animal skin fairly easily.here probably not.it would take needing info from the CC team.
     the other option would be to lace decoration animals scattered around the map or add them to trees but way low on how often they would appear.then the tower hunters  look like they have animals to hunt. is there a way to give more overlays when the game draws the maps?
1 for the texture,1 for trees,1 for stones,etc.how many?we need an extra layer or 2.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 02, 2018, 08:31:22 PM
first you cant* change their sizes or modify their forms cause we dont have access to the .fbx
if you change 1 textures, even if they have many names, you change the texture for all the deers / fake deers. the name of the texture is written inside the .fbx and you can't* change it cause you dont have access to the .fbx

also, if i would do that i would lower alot the % chance of pop herds so we dont get overflow'ed with like crazy herds in africa while following herds and migrations :D
i would lower qty of each so you can get about same thing.

the only one i can change is the leghorn, i can edit the name of the texture in the leghorn.fbx to give it a partridge, goose, duck.... texture.
i dont understand what you mean about layers ?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on February 02, 2018, 09:15:37 PM
yes i was afraid of how hard-coded the animals might have been done. by layers i mean the way the game draws the maps for each game. my understanding from NECORA and BT is the map is made in sections, 1 on top of the other. kinda like it draws the terrain then adds a "layer" of trees,then one of the grass or herbs and plants.et,then 1 of the iron and stone,etc.if i remember right,there is 4 of those.
    in theory if we could add more of these layers. we could have 1 to make odd things to add to the maps.be it animals like CC did,though they may have them attachted to trees or something.or a layer of relic type buildings like CC did with the skull mountains and a few other trinkets to discover.

where is NECORA and BARTENDER anyhow? they is greatly missed.

Very nice. I really wouldn't mind having only one animal model as long as I get all kinds of meat instead of FEATHERS. I spend more time with the game paused laying down roads and designing the residential & production areas.

Wait , wait ... do you mean in pastures as well ? Or did you mean wild animals ? The only wild animals I see on the map are deer and ducks. I use your hunter tower in every forester area and get all kinds of game and meats. The wooden butcher processes the poultry. The regular medieval butcher does the steak, etc.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Hawk on February 03, 2018, 02:38:56 AM
Can animal types be decided by terrain type? I don't know if I'd want a lot of different animals on one map.
I did install the CC animals before but even those few seemed almost a bit too much.

If different animal types could be spawned based on the terrain type, that would be cool.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 03, 2018, 03:06:31 AM
i meant only wild animals. i have my watch tower that are getting those meats but they dont hunt, they stay there and do nothing why the meats are created from thin air....

so i was wondering if instead to have that tower (note, i can do it too as extra) why not have the hunters getting the wild meats instead ?


i have no idea if a certain kind of patterns can be obtained through the "what kind of the map you choose" process : i think yes we can

Hmm, I see more meat than in my game, mine only gets like 20 to 40 per type, maybe 4, 5  types per year and I almost don't get venison. If i do it's only 200. But... I would need to compare to a new game because my current map is kinda bugged. Once I clear up all the resources in an area. They don't grow back. I have to place foresters to get trees and resources to grow. Are the animals tied up with resources or do they work differently/separately ?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 03, 2018, 06:01:25 AM
they work seperatly and has nothing to do with trees like gatherers and herbalists. herds can be everywhere and not tied to forest.

the numbers you are comparing... is it from Watch Towers ? or Hunter Lodges ?

Note also, from Day 1 of this mod , i modified the number of kills per years of :

HuntDescription hunt
{
   // one deer per month
   float _killTimeInMonths = 1.0;

   ResourceLimit _resourceLimit = Food;
}

instead of:
   float _killTimeInMonths = 2.0


so i get more kills with this mod.

@RedKetchup   Just a thought...  In the beginning, back in 2015, I think, there was a mod called Tree Of Life.  It's still listed on Banishedinfo.com.  I used to use it all the time.  It added the livestock to the wild areas and allowed them to be hunted.  I think if you take this mod apart and find out how it works, perhaps you can make the wild more full of animals?
It was made by Darkbibou.

In my blog I asked for some store to clean up the "messy" looking stockpiles with the many different materials.

Here's what I wrote today:

Quote
Quote from: RedKetchup on February 07, 2018, 04:44:26 PM
And hopefully @Nilla , i ll have some "closed" storage to offer you :) and better if you can give me exactly the name and utility of each building i should do for NMT3.0 RK Choice Ed. :) That way you will have exactly the storage buildings you will expect to have.

I've been thinking. This question is not easy to answer.

The simplest solution would be to make a barn, maybe in a few different sizes, that can hold all materials, that usually are stored on stockpiles. This would tidy the place up and bring the stuff out of sight.

Could these simple mixed barns be improved somehow? Of cause, some buildings for special materials, with or without vendors could be possible. But here comes the complicated part. As I said, I very much liked the NMT stores with the 2 and 3 floor houses on top. But that was in easy times, with a few materials in one store and a few products in the other. You built one store where wood, stone iron and coal was collected, located one or a few of each; woodchopper and blacksmith close. They put their products in the other store. Building material was also collected to the "center", where it could be used. With these chains of production, it's not that easy anymore.

Here I think, those of you, who have played this mod longer and also you who have more experience of playing CC, with all their production chains and some special stores could add better arguments than I can. That's why I will move this discussion to your development thread, @RedKetchup and add a few more thought from myself.


If @RedKetchup is nice enough and make some closed storage for "stock pile stuff". How do we like it to be? Is a simple barn for all material enough? If not? Which material should be stored together? Should it be with or without vendors?

First I think, it's wise to be careful by using vendors. Vendors don't steal from each other. So if something lands in such a store, it stays there until it's consumed. Say, if we had a store with vendor for logs and firewood. It would be very nice to locate close to a chopper. The vendor(s) would get logs, also from far away, if needed. The production of the chopper would be excellent. But, the firewood in that store will not be moved to any market. That's not so good.

What about a special barn for logs and firewood? Yes, maybe. Should it also store the products from other buildings that use logs? Lumber? Maybe yes. It do make sense to locate a chopper and a lumbermill together. What about products from blacksmiths? They use logs, too? Difficult, because the blacksmith can use so many materials to make tools, so I would say rather, not.

What about a special barn for a foundry with iron ore and iron? Yes, might make sense. What about copper ore and copper? Could make sense to put in the same barn. Silver and gold ore/bars? Small products but maybe yes.

Another barn for sand, clay, brick- and glassproducts? Yes, can make sense. But the brick and glassmaker also use firewood. Should it also be stored in that barn?

Could it make sense to have any stores with vendors for these kind of products? Maybe for materials coming from one place but is used somewhere else, like logs from forests on the edge of the map, ores from mines, stone from quarries. What about markets for building materials, that could be built in new development areas far away from production sites? I don't know.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: twilightbreeze on February 08, 2018, 05:43:16 AM
Barn/store for storing stockpile only stuff is good.

I personally would like to see barns stop auto storing firewood and ores, anything that could be stored in the stockpile instead. Having a barn that only stored stockpile stuff is ok too, but leave the regular barns for food, tools, herbs, textiles, etc. Otherwise, the barns get so filled up with stockpile stuff, no room for food and other things.

Either have a barn strictly for stockpile stuff, or non-stockpile stuff.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 08, 2018, 05:47:13 AM
hehe so many possibilities....
for sure it is unrealistic to cover everything in same(some) building, i mean, for the clay/sand/bricks/glass, it is ok, i think, if there is something special they really want , to go pick it up somewhere else a bit futher (like firewood / or coal.....)

and vendors/no_vendors as you said, it acts differently.

so i let you think about it :)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on February 08, 2018, 06:51:52 AM
       Ds had an idea that might be helpful. 2 smaller market square that was 2 parts. 1 stored items for the bannies,food, firewood,clothing,herbs.
the other stored the process good,logs.iron,ores,etc. 1 would feed the production area to stock the bannes. the other would work with the buildings.  a set of carts would be handy to move specific items like logs,stone,ores,salt,textiles,etc.

Post by: wiscoke on February 08, 2018, 07:12:40 AM
if I can make a suggestion about the barns. storage places for only food, only materials, only firewood,... this way you can have control on what is stored and where. the materials and firewood should not be in a closed barn, but next to a closed barn and with only a roof above it. like some sort of extension of the barn wich you can place seperatly. it also makes sense to put the firewood, stone,.... outside under a roof.

something like this ...http://www.barnpros.com/barn-plans-products.aspx?itemid=1233
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 08, 2018, 09:40:35 AM
i liked the model posted on the barnpros.com

btw, about a barn with ONLY edible : there is one already in game, it is named The Granary. it contains only Vegetables, Fruits, Grains and Meats.
edit: oh also the vanilla market (and its little brother 10x10) are only 'bannies friendly' they store only what bannies need : food, firewood, herbs, tools and clothing.

yes I know of the specialized stockpiles. but I want a roof over it. I know there are some mods for that. kid has them and embx too. but it would be nice if it has the same textures as your barns ;) then you could use them as an extension of the barns or seperatly.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Gatherer on February 08, 2018, 02:51:06 PM
In my opinion what is needed here is a mix of normal barns with different flags stored inside based on percentage of total space available and smaller warehouses operated by stockers.

Post by: grammycat on February 08, 2018, 03:47:31 PM
It sounds like yall want what's already in the Colonial Charter mod.  I've been using the special stockpiles which work well, but a covering in your textures would be nice.  I noticed you mentioned cutting the animals back-for me it's only the deer that are plentiful.  I love the boars but they've been scarce on my maps.

Post by: RedKetchup on February 08, 2018, 10:10:24 PM
so it seems everyone want covered stockpiles.

you said CC has them, Kid has them, embx has them.....
are they a simple decoration of a roof structure you place ontop of a stockpile, or it is really integrated in the stockpile and it changes as you click and drag its size ?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: elemental on February 09, 2018, 01:12:17 AM
Just a ghosted roof on wooden posts, that's all it needs to be. They are usually 2 squares wide but made in a few different sizes, 2x3, 2x4, 2x5.

The ones in my pics are made by Kid. Perhaps you could borrow his models and add your textures to them? (the fences in my pics are not part of the covering, they are separate)

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on February 09, 2018, 04:59:03 AM
Hmmmm......

I don't agree. A ghosted roof is better, than nothing, I would definitely use it. But I would rather like a "proper storage". OK, most of these materials can be stored outside or under a simple roof (in life) but personally, I have a firewoodshed for my firewood. I find it a cleaner solution.

I've been thinking a little further about stores with vendors: I just discovered, that the markets only holds "consumers goods", I now read it here as well. That's fine with me. But it might cause some trouble: With vanilla markets, you can always locate one blacksmith, one tailor and one chopper at a market. If you have enough vendors, they bring enough rawmaterial, even if the source is far away. Without this possibility, you must be much more careful, how you locate your producers.

Some of these locations are easy and obvious; you locate mines, furnace and blacksmiths together. But what is, when the original mine has run empty? If I understood it right, these small flat mines are not possible to demolish (good) or upgrade (maybe something to think about). Without vendors carrying the ore, you must leave a lot of space for new mines in the area, move the whole production chain or accept a much lower production, if you want to play a little longer.

The same a tailor; it's easy enough to locate it close to a sheep pasture and produce wool coats. But what is, if you want to use several material? It's much harder, especially on a larger settlement to locate, to get wool and leather, or maybe cotton or flax.

I think firewood, lumber, bricks, glass don't have the same problems. They can better be located to a good source of sustainable rawmaterial.

A vendor store for building material could maybe also make sense, especially on a large map.

So I think this mod could use some storage with vendors; at least one for ores and metals and one for textiles. But they should not include the final products; tools and clothes.

    a general barn or market that stores everything doesn't work.you end up with something you do need not being stored. the vendor is overly busy trying to locate items you either don't have or are far away and not needed to be moved.a production wharehouse that stores minerals,construction,and crafter items,etc that would supply a production area and 1 for a mine area would help.then in the city center place a market square that stores the needed items to supply the bannies. to supply a wood cutter,BS,and tailors specific carts could be used.a log cart,textile,and a mineral,stone,etc. same thing going to the production area. you would need a food cart,firewood,tools,and clothing cart. no system is foolproof or without its own issues. this way would need more vendors.

       i like options. what works in a city might look wrong in a rustic smaller town.what works in a production area might not work in a forest or farm area.and there is 2 parts. storage and markets.a large market or barn fits here but a smaller 1 over there.or different styles.
      the item specific piles are handy at times.there are some mods to cover them. if RED wants to make more of these or his own style,that would be good. if he would rather spend that time designing something else,we have mods already. that being said,1 thing that would help is not just a roof-over cover but something we can add ghosted walls to and enclose.we could build our own barns with such an option. being ghosted would give the option to place them around a small modded market and enclose it. say you had KID's marlet puzzle and wanted to make it into a larger looking market to fit somewhere.this could be expaned on even. if you had a 4x4 pile for food and this option,you could make your own barn or market.or 1 square is the market and the others are storage. just an idea.

I didn't mean copy CC-I was just stating that those options already existed in CC and some do not work well.  Maybe this would be where adding another creator's mod like Kid's storage carts would work?  Is it possible to do ghosted storage like you described?  If so, that could provide the answer to everyone's wants.

Necora's Maritimes Pine Set has an enclosed building that stores construction materials.

It stores everything the stockpiles store, but it's a building instead of all your construction materials being out in the open.

I use it all the time, I'm not a big fan of the wide-open stockpiles... I find them to be a bit of an eye-sore (piles of stuff everywhere), so I use that storage building all over the place instead of the standard stockpiles.

Is it possible to do ghosted storage like you described?

Not sure what you mean exactly, but Red made some ghosted firewood storage and Kid has made some ghosted storage boxes (they are in my pics above) So yes, ghosted storage is possible. Some would consider it very cheaty though. Ghosted roofs and walls and entire ghosted barns structures (with or without a storage component) would be possible too.

if I can make a suggestion about the barns. storage places for only food, only materials, only firewood,... this way you can have control on what is stored and where. the materials and firewood should not be in a closed barn, but next to a closed barn and with only a roof above it. like some sort of extension of the barn wich you can place seperatly. it also makes sense to put the firewood, stone,.... outside under a roof.


I didn't see this until now. I like the idea of having matching barns and ghosted extension roofs. Good thinking, @wiscoke.

so i did stop and let my dark side of the brain with it ^^

and today, i took a different approach and this is successful :)
i can let down that thing on the ground without a crash.

now it is just a matter to make my models working and do the thousand little details :)
i dont want to show pictures for the moment till the models arent 100% perfect :D

We´re waiting in patiance, so take your time.......

Your completely new things are generally worth waiting for; multi stores houses, fodder meadows.... you name i.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 10, 2018, 01:00:44 AM
Here i tried to do.

The thing i wanted to use, absolutely, is the " click and drag and size as you want " feature from the stockpile / or / pasture.

The click and drag from the stockpile named " CreateDragDescription createdrag " function doesnt allow a model to be integrated and displayed. No matter i tried hard yesterday, it doesnt show your model at all, or at least, the 2-3 way i tried to make it work. the only thing you see is the stockpile footprint on the gound.

So today i ve tried another method: the pasture one. The pasture use a click and drag named " CreateFencedDescription createfenced ". It allows a building + fences (straight, long straight, corner, gate and end) which is also exactly the same function as the cemetary.

While i chose a small barn as building, i made 1x1 tiles cover that would fit perfectly all around. My goal was to "overlap" the graphic of the straight piece and long straight piece enough to cover the center of the stockpile; hiding everything.  ;D

Everything was going very very well :) till i hit a bug from the developper. another poor decision.
when it draw the south side, everything goes well and i overlap the center of +1 tile or more. Then there is a corner of 1x1 tile, thats ok too. The next pieces turn 90 degres and on the left side, the pieces are named "End" piece, there ok too , they are 1x1 tiles, turned 90. and then you have another corner.

there is the bug, or the poor management, it should turn another 90 degres so the piece front face stay outside and the interior face stay inside....
But no, here the bug : they reset and comeback as it is at south :( the exterior become an interior face, and what should be inside , and overlapped, since not turn 180 degres, goes wrongly to the outside :(
and there is no way i can ask to choose another piece (mirrored) nor ask it to turn it 180 as it should do :( ( see screenshot 1 ).

So unless Luke fix that error which is a poorly made error : all exterior fence sides should be all exterior, and all inside faces should inside.



That way i could faufill many wishes :
1. have the stockpile covered : granted
2. have a barn design : granted (partially cause no3...)
3. have a design of cover which "attach" to the barn and cover the tiles side of it : granted
4. still have the click and drag and resize function so you can decide how long to want it to be : granted

for the moment it cannot be done :(



The only thing maybe i can do is an addon of a ghosted 1x1 tile cover to "fix the graphic in middle of the stockpile" and i let all the fence pieces 1x1 tiles (straight, long straight, gate....) so it does all around the stockpile wonderfully and have players to "finish" the middle as they want.

Note also: even if the player dont cover the middle, it still looking awesome !!!
the only thing, they have a minimum size so the barn can be drawn. And you sill can use the ghosted 1x1 cover if you prefer a 1x30 long belt of stockpile. ( see screenshot 2 and 3 ).

the thing though with more ghosted walls and roof around your stockpile... it will be very bad for you. each time you will want to know what your stockpile contains, you will click 1000 times and you will only target the ghosted walls/roof. you wont being able to target your stockpile anymore.

so tonight, i pressed the accelerator ^^ and i processed the paper sheet i made with all the little things / fixes i wanted to be done :)

1. i changed the original CC Barley and i added more plants. (see screenshot)
2. i was really not satisfied about the strawberries plant, i redid it completly.  (see screenshot)
3. i really disliked the footprint of the market and medium market. i didnt liked the stone imitation on the ground footprint. so i deleted the stones.  (see screenshot)
4. i moved up the nenuphars in the ponds, it was looking weird to me, they seemed to be under water.  (see screenshot)
5. i fixed the Tailor window and gave it its own window layout instead it is set on the blacksmith one.  (see screenshot)
6. i made a new recipe to the tailor and give the possibility to make warm winter coats from fur.  (see screenshot)
7. i fixed a granary foundations graphical glitch.
8. i am trying again to fix the blue berries amount. ^^
9. i deleted the fuel and woodfuel flags to the Fodder-Thatch raw material. so it wont mess up with fuel limits but wont be used to warm houses anymore.
10. i fixed the "coal" limit name and icons of the quarries.  (see screenshot)
11. i added storage capacity of all the barns tooltips.  (see screenshot)
12. i made new "highlight" models of woodcutter / florist / herbalist / fodder farmers to get rid of "unecessary" yellow lines all around semi transparent planes (mainly plants).  (see screenshot)

edit: all the changes made tonight should be all save game compatible, or at least, it was compatible with MY city saved game ^^

Thanks Red.
I've noticed every time I use the fodder barn, it seems to store more of the other "associated materials" than the fodder itself, even when placed right beside the farmer and stables. I realize this has to do with the "flags" that are being used, but is there anyway to separate these more? Just asking, I've seen other posts about similar situations and was wondering. Still relatively new to this game, so forgive me if this has been answered before.
As always, great job with your mods, I like your style and cant wait for more. ;D
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: carolinafan95 on February 14, 2018, 05:30:50 PM
Sorry forgot to mention this above, but have you thought about adding a fence mod /addition to this set? One that would complement the ones you use in some of the pieces. I've been trying to get more creative with the yards and fields but having to use DS and Kid mods for added fences, so the styles are much different. Not a bad thing, just wondering. Thanks again.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 14, 2018, 11:03:03 PM
everything works with flags and everything that has that flag is stored there. we cannot seperate the items inside the flags.

yes there will be decorations in the end, fences of all colors will be part of it.

meanwhile....


i restarted to add things from NMT2.04 :)
and convert them to 3.0 :)


This is the new Barber Shop :) (and it should fit under the multi floor housing)
before you ask why copper and gold ? For 1. Game difficulty, 2. It will be for the instruments for the Barber / it will be same for the Dentist and the Clinic :)


EDIT
in fact, i just changed 2 material to : Silver bar instead and Perfume :) (after shave ^^ haha)

So I think this mod could use some storage with vendors; at least one for ores and metals and one for textiles. But they should not include the final products; tools and clothes.

so ?? with vendors....

what i do need to do ?

wood + firewood ?
iron + Minerals ?

what if i do : Wood | Fuel | CoalFuel | Iron | Custom1 | Custom5
( coalfuel = minerals, custom1 = metal bars, custom5 = construction )

it is 4 tiles width, by 5 height road included. 10k weight. if not enough you can place a 2nd one, no ? at 10k , there are alot of place for each items.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 17, 2018, 06:20:00 AM
so....

The Hardware & Co. store has : Wood | Fuel | CoalFuel | Iron | Custom5 ( coalfuel = Minerals, custom5 = Construction )
The Grocery Store has : Edible | Protein | Vegetable | Fruit | Grain
The Delicate Things has : Custom1 | Custom4 | Custom6 (Custom1 = Forged, Custom4 = Material like sand, Custom6 = Precious)
The Fabrics & Co. has : Textile | Custom2 (Custom2 = Fabrics like cloth and linen)

A couple of questions:

What is with fodder and fertilizer? Do they belong in any of these categories? If yes, do you want them there. If no, do we need stores for them, too?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 17, 2018, 10:14:27 AM
the Fodder is Custom5 = Construction so it will be stored too inside the Hardware.
the Fertilizer is Custom7 = Misc. so wont be stored anywhere


and yes they are designed to perfectly fit unter the Multi-Level floors :)


it would be SO MUCH SIMPLE if Luke would have agreed to let us target directly RawMaterialFiles.rsc instead of flags :(

8. A new Supplies & Goods Store. It has : Custom1 | Custom4 | Custom6 (Custom1 = Forged, Custom4 = Material like sand, Custom6 = Precious) as flags. It has been designed to fit under the multi-level housing.
9. A new Fabrics & Co. Store. It has : Textile | Custom2 (Custom2 = Fabrics like cloth and linen) as flags. It has been designed to fit under the multi-level housing.
10. A new Candle Maker building appeared. It will take 30 Beeswax and do 3-4 Candles. Candles are required to renew your open sky mines and renew its resources by opening new deeper levels.
11. All 3 Open sky Mines can now be upgraded to 3 deeper levels. lvl 2 will allow you to get 3000 extra resources. lvl 3 up to 4000 extra resources. (the standard mine has a limit of 2000 resources)

Enjoy !!!


PS.: Should be saves compatible without problems out of a little weird glitch about the wild strawberries which will have a weird red looking. a new game will have those perfect.

I´m a big fan of the canals. But I think I read somewhere that you don´t want to include them. If you don´t like to, it would at least be nice, if they where compatible. (Maybe they are I haven´t tested)

I also miss a NMT school.

And as I said in my blog; small ground flor production buildings that could be used together with the 2 and 3 flor homes would be nice. If I remember it right there was a butcher, but there could also be a baker, a tailor and maybe something else looking similar.

I'll second that Nilla.  :) A school with the NMT touch would be nice. Maybe even two floors.
I'm liking the new mod a lot Red, got to play a little last night. Thanks for the change with the fodder. Makes it easier for me at least.
Loving the mines, both in looks and function.

oh they will be included... it is just i wait because the compile time will double and the .pkm file will get another 100MB so i am trying to wait a bit. maybe i ll add it for the next beta.

i am now updated beta to 1.07.then overhaul my mod list. did do some checks on this with only debug,no other mods. can we get a mineral remove button to clear stone,iron or iron ore,and copper ore? is handy for meadows or forests. can the stockpiles be set to 1 square. at moment the smallest is 2x2?
     next is similar to NILLA's thinking. since this is YOUR mod would it be better to move the icons from the community to the other appropriate icons?then if we add more of your mods they can go to the community icon. houses and storage especially.do you plan to add the NMT tavern and  decorations?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 23, 2018, 01:25:42 PM
the buttons to clear are all there, and even more than you listed.
specialized stockpile are at vanilla minimum
i prefer to have replacements being replacing vanilla icon, and all extra in community toolbar. i dont want the opposite of what i am suggesting to everyone. i dont what to have the mofo: do what i say but dont do what i am doing; i prefer to apply them myself :)
eventually more to come :) already next build has the canals 3.11. have some changes to crop to make a .2 to .5 month longer to grow. and have changes to help to see the market signs while under multi level floors.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on February 23, 2018, 03:02:30 PM
yeah i see the buttons and they help. a button that clears stone and iron all with 1 sweep is helpful to clear from forrests.i fixed the piles,i have a specialized storage that gives 1 space piles for 1.06 items. will work on stone,logs, and iron.
  i still have adjustments to my mod order to do. i have 2 blank tags, but think i narrowed them down.so far i only broke it a little bit.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on February 27, 2018, 04:31:40 AM
i changed the specialized stockpile size from 2-12 to 1-20 tiles
i added a Clear Almost All button that will clear all the ores (copper, iron, gold, silver) and all the trees.
Now the WoodCutter will have a menu and give you the choice to make 3-4 Firewood from 1 Log , or, make 3-4 Firewood from 5 Fodder-Thatch :)
Now the 1x1 Tile Stockpile Cover has a trash icon on the title bar for easy delete :)

Just let you know, if i fix the fertilizer problem to get it stored in a stockpile instead of a barn....
it will make the game non save compatible because the fertilizer resource will need new models with stockpile models and since your existent save games wont have those : this will lead to crash (the only save games will be saves where you never built a stable, and never got any merchants selling those to you)

i am trying to read the 3-4 different posts and see the recommendations i've got from everyone...

now the fertilizer will have Custom4 (natural resources gathered not by mining) and will be stored in a stockpile. (will be same flag as sand/clay/hardwood/etc)
pretty sure it wont be save compatible. i will need to test with my own game. and if it really not, then i ll do the other very critical change about wild animal skins.

modified all buildings so they use 1 worker by default. of course, all buildings allowing to change the amount of workers will continue to do so; it is just the default number that pop up when the building is built.

Nice to see, that my testing might be to some help. :)

Of cause I don't know what's possible, maybe this is the only way; I mean Custom4. I have issues with these special stockpiles for clay and sand. In this game the claypit/brickmaker and sandpit/glassmaker are located far away from eachother. Believe me or not; often there's more sand than clay on the stockpile close to the brickmaker and more clay than sand on the stockpile close to the glassmaker. It seems like the Bannis mean that, every of these specialized stockpiles need to contain all different materials. And I guess that piles, planned to contain clay or sand will be full of fertilizer. Now, this is of cause better, than all in all barns, but still not perfect.

RedKetchup, I like that you made the cemetery and fields have the transparent bottom.  I did not like the cemeteries  having the dark scruffy grass look, instead of the nice light green grass. 

It is also very good that you made the default for workers start at 1.  :) It is annoying in the regular game that fields and other work places have it set to 2 or more and then if I forget to put it to 1 even though I only assigned one worker, when I make a new field or other work building and assign one worker, one of the other same kind of work place loses their worker.

I did not get to read all the many, many posts in this thread, so maybe it was already asked, but are you going to make the upper level house part for the blacksmith, baker and butcher like you had in your older sets?  I would love it if you would.

Hooray that you added a "clear all" button for all the ores, instead of us having to do each one separately. 

What I love most about your new mod is your new stone houses and the new pinkish tile roofs on the tailor, school, and some other business buildings.  I wish you would make an F key variant so the houses could have a choice of the black or that lovely pinkish tile roof texture.

The merchants still bring jewels and perfume. I don't know if you want it that way but I guess; no one will ever buy any of these products.

I had to upgrade a mine this evening, so I built a candlemaker. It's nice. But as far as I remember it; you use CC values. Not very profitable; only 0.5 trade unit for each candle. So candles are not interesting to produce for export. I don't know, if you want it this way. It's alright by me. There are many other possible export goods. I only wanted to mention it.

RedKetchup... your two story colorful houses in MM8 are quite a bit darker than the original mod.   Did you make that change or did CC when they put together that massive mod?     I really liked the darker version - is it available as a single mod?

@RedKetchup , I have tried out your grocery store and the others, but find the radius is too small.  I wish it was larger than you have it.  After building the shops, there isn't much room for many homes to be covered.

Also, the name of your Hardware Store doesn't really fit.   I thought at first from the name "Hardware" that it was going to sell tools.   A better descriptive name would be something like "Building Materials Store", or "Materials Store", maybe "RK's Building Supplies".
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on March 01, 2018, 02:07:24 AM
Good @galensgranny that you start to talk about these shops. I wanted too, but always forgot.

The circle of the grocery store is indeed small, but that's fine with me. I find, that it should be a big difference between a regular large market and such a small store. You must concider, if you use the NMT houses there's a lot of homes on a small area. Maybe it could be a little bit bigger, but definitely much smaller than an ordinary market.

The names of the stores don't bother me, maybe because English isn't my native language. But of cause, names that don't confuse anyone is good. I wanted to talk about the content in the stores. I had some trouble in my game.  I find the Hardware store holds too many different kind of material, opposite to the Supply and goods store, that I never had any use for. If you want a Hardware store to supply your smelter/blacksmiths, it gets full of firewood and bricks and if you build one in a new area because you want building materials there, it gets filled with ores and fodder.

I find something like this would be better:

Grocery and textiles - they are good and worked fine in my settlement

Hardware - tools, firewood, clothes, herbs (things people need that's not food)
Building materials - logs, stone, produced building materials like bricks, lumber and glass (I would exclude iron it's better off close to blacksmiths)
Supply and goods - ores, minerals, iron, coal, logs (materials to supply smelter, toolmaker, lumber mills, woodcutters)

I know, there are logs in two store, I find it make sense. Maybe I´ve forgotten something, this is just a brief suggestion for you to think about @RedKetchup and for discussion.

I'm having a terrible time getting in game pictures.   The Banished logo and menu are imposed over everything and I can't figure out how to get rid of them.   

Anyway, here's a mangled shot of the green house.   The darker one is with MM8 and the lighter one is with just a few mods and no MM8.
And the sun direction doesn't impact how dark the house looks.

About darker Colorful Little House

RK fixed the naming of the AO-map in his separate Colorful Little House mod.

I guess @kralyerg hasn't updated MM - so there is a conflicting name.

Hardware - tools, firewood, clothes, herbs (things people need that's not food)
Building materials - logs, stone, produced building materials like bricks, lumber and glass (I would exclude iron it's better off close to blacksmiths)

I know, there are logs in two store, I find it make sense. Maybe I´ve forgotten something, this is just a brief suggestion for you to think about @RedKetchup and for discussion.



@Nilla, I see how you are thinking to sort the items. 

But, herbs and clothes should not be in what is called "hardware".  In English, people would not think by the name that there might be clothes and herbs in a hardware store.  That needs a name change.

(Nilla's idea) Hardware - tools, firewood, clothes, herbs (things people need that's not food)

It would make more sense in English for that shop to be called "Supplies and goods".  In English, with the word "supplies", by itself, people usually consider it to be things they need to use for daily life, like you had them sorted.  It's just that the name "Hardware store" does not match.

Then what Nilla listed as:

Supply and goods - ores, minerals, iron, coal, logs (materials to supply smelter, toolmaker, lumber mills, woodcutters)

That should get rid of the name "Supply and goods".  Ores, minerals, etc. are what in English would be called "raw materials". 

I think that iron should be in the same shop with construction materials.  Iron is used in construction of some building.  It can be in in another shop too, if desired.

I don't understand why plain textiles would be in the same shop as food, but then clothing is not.  It seems to me clothing and textiles are better to be together.

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on March 02, 2018, 03:12:46 AM
OK, I don't know about the names. I can live with "soft things" in a hardware store. But of cause it's always good, if the names don't confuse anyone.

I mainly care about the function. I want these markets to work in a settlement. And as I said, I find there could be some improvements. You misunderstood me @galensgranny, you would have known, if you had built all these markets; textiles and food are not in the same. I only wanted to say; these two markets work good, the way they are. Sorry if I didn't express myself well enough. However, the textile market wouldn't work, if it also contains clothes.

Why?

Let's look at the function of this market: You locate one or a few tailors close. A vendor collects textiles from all over the map and the tailors work very well. What will happen, if clothes would be stored here, too? Convenient to put them there directly from the close tailor. Yes, that's right. BUT: Vendors don't steal from eachother! That means, that these clothes stay in that small store, until they are consumed. None of them gets to a normal market, where they would be better needed. The distribution of clothes breaks down. And what happens, when the settlement grows and you want to have more clothes in your stores? This market will be full of clothes and there will be no space left for textiles and the meaning of this store is gone.

Similar my suggestion not to store iron together with other building materials. Most of the iron is needed to produce tools. You want the blacksmith to be efficient with enough iron close. To me it's less inconvenient for laborers to get a small amount of iron far away from the building site, than for the blacksmith to get it from a building location, who knows where.

NILLA i really am not trying to argue with you. what you said is generally correct. at least in theory. i think markets can be improved on and used to make games work better.not just RED's mod but all markets and any game setup. we all have different ideas but seem to agree there must be ways to use markets better.
     though markets don't "steal" from each other,i have seen some that will help each other. once they have too many of an item,they move excess goods to a different market. they can be set up to hold x% of varrying goods,so they won't fill with just clothes.it might have been SMURPH who brought that up before.the market vendor can become so busy trying to locate certain materials that they fail to stock the items you do have including food.this can slow down the working bannies production rate. either they don't have enough materials to work or need to travel farther for food.
      the last map i did,i used a lot of pine markets. since i didn't have a pine forest i didn't have those items.the markets would fill to around 45% only.the remaining space is reserved for items i didn't have.so say you set 1 to supply a village and hope it will bring logs to keep the woodcutter busy.the vendor will stock a set amount of logs and no more.as the woodcutter uses the logs,the vendor will go find more constantly.thereby taking time away from moving food or other items.if the vendor did get busy somewhere else,the logs would get used up and the woodcutter would be forced to find them himself.
           all vendors are not the same. each modder has oded the markets differently. it is interesting to watch them and see how they work.some are more helpful to other workers,some are more willing to move excess stock to a nearby market,there are hard-coded mysteries to the vendors as well.

You browse the goods and you "buy" whichever you like the most. Just look at the different exhibits. Hey, in this exhibit they're selling clothes from Greg's tailor shop. I really love this market. We're lucky that the bad weather went away so we could held this market this weekend. There are a lot of people from the neighboring towns.
In my hometown, there is a yearly market held at the lasts days of Spring and you can buy about everything, mostly clothes. It is held in the middle of a street so people can walk up and looking at the different exhibits, mostly second-hand used or old clothes at really cheap prices. Sometimes, the local stores use it to clear their storage for new ítems. And this is very common in most towns and cities in Galicia, Spain.

Wow, I don't usually write so much.
And that's how I view markets in game.

I haven't deeply considered it yet. I haven't played near as much as Nilla has, so for now, I am fine with the way Nilla would like the markets sorted, BUT, use the new names I suggested so it is more clear in English what might be in those shops.   If other people have more input, more changes could be made.  I'd be interested in further thoughts from Brad


Nilla's grouping of items, my suggested name change for some of the shops:

(Name is fine) Grocery and textiles - they are good and worked fine in my settlement

Hardware   Change to "Supplies and goods" (or something very similar) - tools, firewood, clothes, herbs (things people need that's not food)

(Name is fine)  Building materials - logs, stone, produced building materials like bricks, roof tiles, lumber and glass
(Nilla wants to exclude iron  from the Building Materials shop, thinking it is better off close to blacksmiths.  I think iron makes sense in a building materials store since some buildings use it, but maybe they don't in your RedKetchup Editor's choice mod.)

Supply and goods  Change to "Raw Materials" (or something similar)- ores, minerals, iron, coal, logs (materials to supply smelter, toolmaker, lumber mills, woodcutters)

Maybe also add a few more descriptions of kinds of items in each shop that will show when people hover over the icon in game.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: galensgranny on March 02, 2018, 10:28:37 PM
Also, Red, would you make at least one F key variant for the walls of the shops?  One that has a tannish or reddish color so it would match better with the upper levels of the housing that can fit on top of the shops?.  It would be great if you did all of the choices, but if only one, maybe the sand bricks.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on March 03, 2018, 12:56:15 AM
@RedKetchup, it's your mod, YOU make the decisions!

It's nice, when you listen to our opinions. I would have liked, if more people would discuss this. I (once again  ???) agree with @brads3, markets are interesting and it is important to have good  working markets in a game, especially when it grows. Discussion about markets is on going.

I've told my opinion about these NMT markets. I also find it's important to have markets of different size. And to charts; we can always use the nice DS markets charts, if we want even smaller. I guess they are compatible.

I want to say one more thing about the look. I know, I showed some pictures from the backside I didn't really liked the look of, when you build brick houses on top. But on the other side as my settlement grew, I found it very useful, that they did look different. As I said, markets are important, I use to look into my markets quite often, to see, it they works as intended. It was easier to find them this way, as they looked different. So I would say; no need to make them in different F-variations. I would rather concider something to hide the backside, if you want a beautiful looking village. Maybe some climbing plants, like ivy; maybe some wall? I guess this would be more fun for you to make, and opens up for more creativity by the user.

I wish more people had the guts to learn more diverse words.

      we could start a post on markets and storage. with so many different players with different playstyles,we should have many ideas on what works and doesn't.an open -discussion could help unlock some mysteries.
       i tried to go back thru some of my notes. i thought i had more notes. SLINK's vendors are helpful. i use the industrial market to store excess stone.the vendor works well with the laborers. the laborers clear land and leave piles for the vendor to pick up. since he has a wheelbarrow,he can haul more faster. i have seen EB's farmer market vendor take extra supplies to another market and bring back items. such as  take firewood to the CC small market and bring back tools.i have seen vendors wait til a barn had more stored and then travel out to collect from it.always seemed to be the same level of fullness.have seen them walk past several barns and specifically go to a far away barn for items.some tend to help others more ,while some loiter a lot.
     DS made a double market with his small village set. this has a farmers type market to store items used by the bannies including food. the other half stored production goods,logs and ores.this is handy in a production or mining area since you have a merchant bringing food and 1 to supply the workplaces. i also use the industrial plaza. same size as a central market but stores production items.both of these are 1.06 so limited with the new flags. cellars xan also be useful. a luxury cellar adds storage to a winery,the medicine cellar adds to a clinic,etc. this stores the items conveniently for the worker and bannies.

Turis, what you posted is fine for whether to call the entire building type a shop, or market, or fair, etc.  But what we are trying to specify is what kind of shop, market, fair, etc. it is.  A raw material shop, a food market, etc.  And then what exact items will RedKetchup flag to go in them.

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: galensgranny on March 03, 2018, 12:28:23 PM
For now, since RedKetchup wants to get this update of his mod finalized tomorrow, I think the decision should be based on what he has now, but with some changes to the identifying name of the markets (or shops, or stores) so people in general will get a good idea of what is in that building.  Then, there is a question of some groupings of items.

Of course, at some time in the future changes could be made, but for now Red wants to get things moving with his mod.

I think the way Nilla posted the groupings of items and my name changes so it is more precise in English are good, except for the iron decision. 

Nilla prefers no iron in the Building Materials shop, but instead only in the Raw Materials shop.  I think it might be good if it is in the Building Materials shop and also the Raw Materials shop. Iron is used as both a raw material to create a new substance- steel for the steel tool, but it is also used as a building material for construction of some buildings. 

@brads3 , I would be interested if you started a new discussion all about Markets.  I don't have as good an understanding of how they operate the way you  and Nilla do.  It would be helpful to all players.  Especially telling about the different markets various modders have made.

This is a problem with the game itself. Blacksmith usually produces about everything made of iron, but, also sells them. But, here we need two buildings, the forge and a storage. Same deal with the tailor. We could play around the names and named the store, Farrier, which is another name for blacksmith and Clothier if you figure out, it is another name for tailor.

Red deciding what items to put in his various shops is not a problem of the game itself.  The question at hand is how to group items in the shops Red already made.  Should there be any changes to what Red has already made?

Then you didn't understand nothing of what I said. They called blacksmith to what should be called forge and the tailor does his job of making clothes in the back of his store while waiting for customers. Banished takes those items to a different storage.

NOW, I was giving you reliable information about the middle ages which obviously you know nothing about. When I want to speak to @RedKetchup , I'll talk to him directly and not you so stop acting like you speak for him. Do you understand, kiddo?

@RedKetchup The name Farrier refers to blacksmith and it was used between 1375 and 1425 A.D. while Clothier was used between 1325 and 1375 A.D. at England. So, pretty much these names goes along with your Medieval mod.

The occupation "farrier" currently (at least in the U.S.) is used for someone who shoes horses. The term "blacksmith" is often used too for that job but they often do more iron working than just that.  :)

"Building Materials"
String _text = "The Building Materials Store is a little market that only sell Tier2 building materials (Stone, Construction: Lumber, Glass, Bricks, Rooftiles...). Fit under Multi-level floors"

"Grocery Store"
String _text = "The Grocery Store is a little market that only sell food (Proteins, Grain, Vegetables and Fruits). Fit under Multi-level floors"

"Supplies & Goods"
String _text = "The Supplies & Goods is a little market that only sell materials to craft various goods (Tools, Fuel, Clothing, Herbs). Fit under Multi-level floors"

"Fabrics & Co."
String _text = "The Fabrics & Co. is a little market that only sell fabrics materials to craft cloths (Textiles and Fabrics). Fit under Multi-level floors"

GRANNY, i would be glad to add info but i have a concern. the way my vendors work might not work with a different mod order. market A does this and market vendor B does that. but when you add several mods will they influence each other.so A and B might act somewhat different depending on mod C even.
         this is a theory that i started to see since the 1.07 change.the mods seem to cross over and affect each other in a different way than before.
where the old way the game would read from the top down and the top mod would override the next. now it seems as though the game can mix 2 or more mods together.not saying it should read that way but i do see odd things now and then.
      give you an example. KID has no mod with ducks included.at 1 time i had a duckhunter issue. the duck hunter would catch fish. usually very small amounts per year. this ment he would have less ducks.loss in production was a huge difference.he would get 5 fish and hundreds of less duck meat. not counting the feather difference.i moved a few mods and thought it was 1 of NECORA's mods causing the issue.not that he had ducks included either. next map duck hunter worked. i moved KID's mods around slightly and the issue came back.these mods were above CC,so should have not been affected by that.
        the mod set up i have now is more treacherous. it should read th top mod's start conditions and load those. it actually loads part of TOM's and then RED's darker terrains. the order of the 2 mods doesn't seem to matter to it. i have already seen subtle  behavior  changes of vendors. the SLINK market vendors nromally would come help the laborers. this is quite handy as they use the wheelbarrows to haul more.laborers can break rocks and stack logs while the vendor hauls items back. in this map the vendor does leave his market and come help. he carries as a laborer not with  a wheelbarrow,though.

Post by: galensgranny on March 05, 2018, 11:46:14 AM
Brad, I have noticed things get different depending upon what one has added to the game and the load order.  So I guess it would be difficult to discuss how markets work in a modded game with many different modder's markets, except to say what you did, that load order can make some unexpected changes.

Now I do have to ask; how many children can the Bannis have in the NMT houses. First I thought 4 then I reconsidered and thought 3, but now I've looked again and it looks like 3 or 4 ???

Look at the picture. It shows the mother and the children. In some houses right column, there are 4 children. In the other houses there are 3 children and you can see, if 4 children would have been possible, there would have been another child in these houses as well. It looks like they can have 4 children if they live on the 3 floor but never on the ground floor. The second floor seems more random.

Maybe this is funny and quite realistic; you'll never know how many children a family can get but in that case it would have been even funnier with something between 2 and 6. In a vanilla speed game, it doesn't matter much. The agedifference makes it rare with 4 children at the same time. Even if a woman may have 4 children, the oldest has mostly moved out before the 4th is born. In a real time speed however it's different.

maybe she gone through adoption ?  :D

multi level floor 1 :    int _maxOccupants = 5; (which is 2 adults, 3 children)
multi level floor 2 :   int _maxOccupants = 5; (which is 2 adults, 3 children)
multi level floor 3 :   int _maxOccupants = 6; (which is 2 adults, 4 children) :)

NMT Little houses:    int _maxOccupants = 5; (which is 2 adults, 3 children)

i ve gone through all textures and they are all the same :)
if you ask the question: Is it an error ? my answer would be no ^^ i think i known exactly what i was doing when i did it ^^ (3rd has alot more space so i added a child)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on March 08, 2018, 12:48:59 AM
OK, thanks. That will work.  I think the 4 child family in one of the 2 floor houses comes because of a separation; I took some nomads, the first house I built for them, was taken by a man with two children (no nomad), probably the father of that family. The 4. child was made in that brief time before I forced them together again, as there was room enough in the original house.

i will certainly offer it in stand alone + inside RK Ed

and i guess i probably can make a 2nd set with the textures from Colorful Little House :)

meanwhile ...  i changed the 2 tiles width archway .... i also lowered the saturation of -20% and lightness of -20% (Brown & Orange of -20%, -10% though) ... oh and i deleted an unecessairy level of toolbars (changed also the icons)

Some time ago you asked for additional building ideas. Sorry for being slow, I am old... lol

They don't need to be necessarily functional (would be nice if they could be) but can be used as a living space requiring additional building materials. Some sort of decoration or signage could be used to set them apart.
    - Wig Maker (Hair Salon/Powder Maker)
    - Cobbler/Cordwainer (two versions - city/village and plantation)
    - Printer/Binder/News Stand
    - Post Office
[/size]These were standard buildings in colonial townships and in larger villages.

I'm not sure adding fences is a good idea, it imposes a colour choice, and can interfere with things like your city roads. It might be best to let the players choose when to use them. You also have to consider that you are limiting the ability to mix house and fence colours. Designers should give the player as many choices as possible, so they can let their imagination run free.  ;)

a Cherry tree in flower made (my old japanese cherry tree), it will come with 3 "F" "alternate" different forms X 3 different colors = 9 ( 9 "F"ed )

they will need a "Seedling" as required material.

the update is save-game compatable. i added it with no crash.it might depend more on what is built.
   i did figure out something with the texture issue. when the CHOICE is enabled it automatically points to the peak start.you can change the option to valley ot lakes,etc.not sure what causes the game to decide where to load. i cleaned the registry and was teating. if the CHOICE is above the north then you can choose the terrain.only happens when the north is loaded above now.it seems the game loads the choice peak texture instead of the North's.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on March 16, 2018, 03:49:06 PM
in fact you (in fact "we", i mean) we cannot decide which one by default. this is the game which decide that, it always relative to the "position" you decided last time you did a map (whatever the mod choice menu)

for example, you had the north mod and you decided to take the 3rd option in the list and you started a map.
the next time, you decide to put RK Ed" first in the list and start a map from RK Ed. the game will give you the 3rd choice in the list in the "RK Ed menu"

to continue our example, you decide to make the 6th choice in the RK Ed list and start a map....
and then. after a while you decide to go back to North Mod and make another new map.....

the game will take you back to the "6th choice" in the North Mod menu if it exist, (if not: it will take you to last one in the list, or first one in the list, not sure there...)

Post by: brads3 on March 16, 2018, 08:41:55 PM
i leave that to you. i can see stone,logs,minerals,textiles.NILLA mentioned grain and fertilizer. doing them by flag and then splitting the food carts to each catagory is a good idea.how much control do you have over how it prioritizes? say it stores grain which is grain+flour, can it be made to store more grain than flour.which would cause it to move flour esewhere to keep space for the grain.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on March 16, 2018, 09:05:25 PM
you cant prioritize things in same flags. it is grains or it is not grains :)

wheat is a grain, corn is a grain, sorghum is a grain,  flour is a grain thats all.
it will try to make 50-50 everything.

in game picture :) 2x2 tiles as vanilla cart
20' tiles radius is enough ?
1 vendor by default, can up at 2 ?

i need to sort out my toolbars, it is starting to fill up that quick in that toolbar lol
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on March 17, 2018, 06:20:14 AM
That's a sweet looking chart! :) It's small, so a small radius is good, also a maximum of 2 vendors. Fits all.

I started a discussion in my blog about how to handle flour. There hasn't been much response, maybe not so many read my often too long blogs, so I will repeat it hear. It looks like @RedKetchup also want more of you to say your opinion. The background is that flour is inedible in this mod. As far as I have seen it, all grain is eatable. This is different in different mods. There are some where grain and flour is inedible, others where both are eatable.

In this mod, flour is not stored in the smaller market place. It only contains costumer's goods, so that might be logical. The small grocery stores however, can contain flour. Flour is special, you want it close to bakers, it's the only place you need it and want it. Now it's spread all over the map to every small store. I have tried to locate bakers a bit spread but that doesn't work well either, I guess I can afford too few vendors to fill the stores fast enough for both the people and the bakery. I suggest two options to make it work better: (maybe some of you see more possibilities)

1. Make flour eatable. Let it spread to all small, medium and big markets. Let the people bake their bread and cook their pancakes. It's easy to make an overproduction.
2. Let it stay inedible. Take it away from the small markets. It's better to lacate mills and bakeries together and not letting the flour spread all over the place. Maybe it's even possible to make a special chart that only holds inedible grain.

I prefer option 1. ;)

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on March 17, 2018, 06:24:17 AM
personally i am ok with option 1 too
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: brads3 on March 17, 2018, 08:13:08 AM
i agree with you both. all flour should be edible. players who want it in-edible can use the add-on mods.
    the carts should help the issue of items being stored everywhere. i don't think we can totally solve this but may be able to help the bannies.there are times scattering items is useful. laborers in forests drop food,tools,firewood,etc that the bannies need.helps the forest workers be more productive since they don't have to travel to find things they need.same thing works for a dock area or mining town.i try to scatter laborers to use this to my advantage.
    the issue of everything being stored all over the map RED has worked on.fertilizer is more controlled now. it isn't stored everywhere and has a more specific place.markets are better at bringing needed items instead of everything.
          we need more understanding of the coding for markets and barns. each vendor reads though the markets coding and decides what to bring in. he also can decide to remove items and take them back to storage or another market. the more we understand how and why he "thinks" the way he does, the more control we players will have. same applies to how and when labores choose what item in which barn. theory is the closet barn.once that barn has a certain amount of item A,they will go store in a different barn. the 1st barn won't be completely full.a food barn won't fill with just chickens.barns have an assortment of goods.
       i think LUKE has this "thinking" coded more complex than we realize.there are hidden mysteries.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: oldgraywolf on March 17, 2018, 10:08:09 AM
I may not be much help, being relatively new to the game but I'd go with the edible grain/flour solution as well. It should make it easier to store and find when needed. I also like the single cart for the "single" items. I like having the flexibility of only using what I might need or want at the time.
It still amazes me when I see the Bannies taking items from one storage to another or clearing out an area of stone when stone is needed for the foundation of the building where the area is being cleared.  :o
Its still a great game in concept but some of these little problems make you scratch your head sometimes.
I'm waiting for you next update Red, and I'll download and try this mod, I've been reading and watching up to this point. I like your designs and concepts, and it looks like a different play style for me to enjoy.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Denis de la Rive on March 17, 2018, 12:09:25 PM
I am convinced that the scattering of goods in different locations is hard coded to avoid disasters being village killers. A fire or worse won't destroy every single unit of an item. This is very important in small villages or those that are starting. You have to remember the game is coded without mod in mind, so there is a logic to this.

As for carts, I think the single good version is the best, it could be match with a storage version to help mitigate some of the storage locations problems. On this subject I would like to remind you that the warehouse can solve some of these problems too, bringing the goods in and then have them sent back out can change where they are stored, and compensate for concentrations caused by building sequences.

I've been gone for a few month, and just looked at the mod, I understand its a beta, but I think some features could be changed to make it an easier mod to play with. I realize many things have been discussed, but I feel certain building requirements may make it too difficult to get what are essential features like trading and health care. Having to build several production chains can simply stop development of a village.

For example trading, it is usually useful as a source of more advanced resources, before one can build production chains. You are also changing how fast you get seeds and animals. Finally it can save you from a death spiral of starvation.

I could say the same for heath care, which has an impact of growth by making accepting nomads far more dangerous. I like the idea that things like the barber are more difficult to get, it makes for great challenges, something Banished needs. Having the hospital require produced resources is a dangerous choice that will simply stop growth, and may even kill a village when everybody dies of old age.

There are other places where this is also something to think about.

There are some easy ways to fix this, creating a basic building that handles these functions, this would create 3 levels of health care, and two for trading. Again limits can be placed on those that are easier to build so you want the better ones. The camp mods might work, but they are a bit of specific theme that may not appeal to everyone.

One thing I do want to say is that I think a mod should not force players to rely on using other mods to fill a basic function. :)

Nilla: can you PM me a link to your blog, I'm interested, but don't have time to look for it. :)

Mon ami, J'aime vraiment ce que tu fais, c'est juste des idées pour faire un meilleur mod.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on March 17, 2018, 01:16:25 PM
I disagree with you @Denis de la Rive. I like that, you need to start the production of some "advanced" building material early. It's also no way too hard to produce a few pieces of glass to be able to build a trading port and a doctor early. Just because you need a few glass or a few lumber doesn't mean, that you need a constant production of these materials. You need to micromanage. But I always micromanage at the beginning, a little more makes the gamer rather interesting. I don't think this is too hard for the average player. I see no risk for the "disasters" you mention.

One thing to you @RedKetchup; have you thought of the school? It would be nice if you could add the NMT school to the next version of this mod.

i still hope to have time to check if i can easily transfert the NMT20 school to this....



meanwhile i was working on the carts idea of Brads....

i did 13 carts, for 13 flags. they all have the new cart look, but every cart has something inside that help define their role. they have a personalized sign behind, and they have personalized resources inside the carts.

i ve got to modify the toolbars though, now when you will open the storage toolbar, you will get 3 options. barns, markets, and carts. The other icons which were hanging already there are still at same place.

Post by: galensgranny on March 18, 2018, 01:04:53 PM
I agree with Denis that it is better for the trading post not to need building materials that require additional buildings and production, such as it needing copper.  I think it needs iron as well, so one already has to make a smelter to turn iron ore into iron, taking another employee.  I like to start trading early on and with limited employees, one really can't do that with the extra production chains.

I also think the hospital should not require much extra, since sometimes one wants to accept nomads as soon as possible.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on March 18, 2018, 01:50:40 PM
You don't need a smelter to produce a few iron and copper @galensgranny. The blacksmith may do it as well. It's not quite as efficient as a smelter. But the few you need for a trading port doesn't matter much, if 3 or 2 ore are needed for each iron/copper.

As I said at the beginning; you don't need so much of these products, that you need to employ these sites all the time. So there's absolutely no problem to produce the material. Don't you people micromanage at the beginning of a game? Do you really build a site and let someone work there all the time right from the start? I don't. In a vanilla game one person switch between woodcutter, blacksmith, tailor and maybe something else at the beginning. Here there will be some more sites; I find that rather interesting than hard.

I know there are mods, that gives you nomads easier, but normally you'll need a townhall, a tradingport and a big market to get some nomads (or at least the footprint of these later 2) and the nomads don't arrive immediately, so there is much time to produce what you need for a doctor/dentist/barber of your choice after the townhall is done.

Of cause, these are only my opinions based on the tests I made from the latest versions of this mod. If people find it difficult to produce more than the 3 "basic materials", you might need to think this over @RedKetchup . But how is it @galensgranny and @Denis de la Rive; have you tested this mod? Did you really have these difficulties? Did your settlement suffer from starvation because you couldn't build a trading port fast enough or a decease after taking nomads but without a possibility to build a hospital?

I have to admit that I don't use some of RK's re-designed buildings that require additional construction materials because I have other options (aka mods) without those requirements. I don't want to have to set up a glass production chain that I'm not really ready to use.

this won't show the pointer. the pointer is just above the right end of the fence toolbar.the 2nd it is on the farthest right stack of wood.if i turn the piece it will go from that far left to that far right.doen't just pivot around where it is.

You don't need a smelter to produce a few iron and copper @galensgranny. The blacksmith may do it as well. It's not quite as efficient as a smelter. But the few you need for a trading port doesn't matter much, if 3 or 2 ore are needed for each iron/copper.

I did not find the blacksmith can smelt iron ore.  I have many other mods installed and for now do not have Red's Choice mod first, so maybe that affects something if his blacksmith can smelt iron ore. 

QuoteAs I said at the beginning; you don't need so much of these products, that you need to employ these sites all the time. So there's absolutely no problem to produce the material. Don't you people micromanage at the beginning of a game? Do you really build a site and let someone work there all the time right from the start? I don't. In a vanilla game one person switch between woodcutter, blacksmith, tailor and maybe something else at the beginning. Here there will be some more sites; I find that rather interesting than hard.

Oh my goodness, I am so glad you wrote what you did,@Nilla ! I have not been playing the start sensibly. I did really build the various work sites and then let a Bannie just stay there and keep working.  Now that I think about it, your way is the best way.  :) Why didn't I think of that all this time?!  It seems so obvious now.  :-[ Things would have been so much better and then I would not be as concerned about having various production chains, since I could stop work at one site so that same Bannie would go work another, until later on I have enough people to stay for good at a work site.

In view of my new "awakening" to better gameplay thanks to Nilla, @RedKetchup I am fine with how you have things.


QuoteBut how is it @galensgranny and @Denis de la Rive; have you tested this mod? Did you really have these difficulties? Did your settlement suffer from starvation because you couldn't build a trading port fast enough or a decease after taking nomads but without a possibility to build a hospital?

I still had other mods installed, so I used one of those trading posts and hospitals.  But, it is the case that I don't start trading right away and people didn't starve.  I just wanted to get some sheep soon to start getting wool.  I have been too impatient to let some years go by to be ready for a lot of things in the game.  Now that I know to rotate the same Bannie to various jobs to get a little of this, and a little of that to start some more complex buildings, it will be fine.

Thank you so much, @Nilla !  :)   I am sure you did not think it necessary to ask if people just keep one Bannie at the same job forever from the start instead of using one Bannie to do several things at things at first.  But, obviously, there was me not doing it sensibly and efficiently.  ;D

Don't feel bad galensgranny, I played the same way until I got on this site and started reading and learning. It takes a little time to get used to the "micromanagement" aspect, but I only do it at the beginning to get things rolling. Nilla seems to be more "hands on" than I am, but her way works, especially while playing the North mod.
Red's blacksmith does smelt a couple of ores and is very useful at the beginning when ore is available and iron isn't. I tried it out this weekend and I just kept an eye on the tool quantity and switched him up as I needed to.
Hat's off to you Mr. Red.  8) I downloaded this mod this weekend and got started just in case you didn't get your newest out. I love it. It will take some getting used to for a noob like me, but I've been reading and learning and really like what you've done.
Much appreciated.

2 suggestions to the canals. can the workers clear trees,rocks,or grasses back as far as the walkway? opposite side of the canal you can see things growing through the stone.it is removable by the clear all tool.
     2nd can a walkway be made with the canal textures and the same height as the canal sides.preferably ghosted.that way we can widen the canal sides and still place carts or markets,etc on top of it. be nice to have a set for each canal and be stretchable like a road. you can see i tried some roads. the city road sidewalk on bottom to left is closer to the same height. would help around that mill.i would add them as sidewalks to the canal toolbars,under the same textures.

yeah i saw this and it is acting very very weird !! as you go further the colors, it is like each color the double-arch goes 1 tile further each time and get like +10 tile away with the 10th color LOL

thats very very weird, gonna take a look at this today.

it cant be processed to the canal mesh themself, you cant ask the mesh to clear something outside the mesh footprint.

do you know you can put road ontop of the walls ? you wont mess up the canal water. it even made on purpose to give fast and faster path along ontop of the canal walls

I understant that I have come in to this conversation a bit late, and respect the opinions stated above, but when one is designing a mod, you must think of the least skilled user as your bottom line, or state directly that your mode is for more advanced players only. You must also consider all game functions, such as playing with disasters. Ignoring extreme circumstances can also be a trap you need to avoid.

I can see that some very skilled players have tricks and playing styles that make these situations interesting, but others have stated they just discovered those same tricks here.

I am certain that I could play this mod like Nilla, (who is certainly one of the best I have seen), but that is not the case with everyone.

I also remain convinced that having this mod depend on others for such basic features is a mistake. It would be a waste of Red's wonderful buildings if most players avoid it, or if they use it as a secondary mod, that would render useless things like starting conditions, and terrain.

Concerning the blacksmith, having to divert production from tool making can also create as many problems, as it solves, I have seen this many times, and trading can often save a town.

Again  :) :)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on March 20, 2018, 05:30:15 AM
I have started a new game, to show how easy it is to produce these "advanced" materials for these basic buildings. I'm sorry, the entry is (as usual  :-[) rather long, but you can read about it in my blog. http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?topic=2256.msg47167#msg47167

I know, I'm an experienced player and can maybe manage extreme situations better than some of you, but I don't make any "magical things", just paying attention on the needs of the Bannis. The experience also gives a confidence in my decisions. I think I know, how far I can go without disastrous consequences. I know, when I have to concentrate on the essential things like food, fuel and tools, I know when I have security to "play around" with what ever I like.

@RedKetchup this is your mod. You haven't said anything about how you feel about this discussion. If you want to, there might be a rather simple solution to fit everyone:

For the vanilla doctor and vanilla townhall you have other, to my opinion much nicer alternatives, where we need other materials than the "usual". You could change the materials back in the vanilla versions to use only logs, stones and iron (maybe you could even reduce the amount of iron, because it has to be produced and maybe instead increase the amount of stones).

Unfortunately the trading port isn't that easily changed. But there I have a suggestion, that also could solve another problem; the many seed and animal merchants, you don't need after some time. Why not make a small trading port for initial use, where you only need the basic building materials. It has to be much smaller, than a normal port, only so big that you can store goods to buy a seed or two, some animals, a few extra logs or stones for the beginning and maybe some grain for initial diversity. If we buy seeds and animals in such a port, these often annoying merchants could be taken away from the normal port and the canal port.

But as I've said in this discussion; I'm not sure that these changes are needed.

i am personally very proud of this new system of extra building requirements. so i wont deleted.  since long time i wanted those lumber/glass features to be integrated and be essential part of the game as i did. Too long time i made mods just for the look without taking care at all the impact on the game and i really try to take care of the "game" in this mod.
for sure i dont want to make this mod like an overload and a bloated version as was CC, but i really think this game needed some love.

Post by: Nilla on March 20, 2018, 01:17:08 PM
I agree: You can be proud of this mod. As I've said repeatedly, I don't think it's too hard to build these basic buildings the way they are, and as you may have seen: I'm about to prove it. In fact I will continue right now. This Kersew only got in my way; now back to my game.

Post by: oldgraywolf on March 20, 2018, 02:21:27 PM
I think you're good Red, I'm fairly new to this and haven't started playing with the newest version you just released, but I've got the previous and don't see a problem with your decisions. Some of them are challenging to a newer player like me but not hard or impossible.
As for the blacksmith. I didn't want to build a smelter so I ended up using two blacksmiths for awhile, one as smelter for the iron the other for tool production, and this after using one and managing it ala Nilla. :P
Keep "your" mod yours. We either play it and like it or not, same as any other. Listening to input and opinions is one thing, trying to please everyone or cater to everyone is another. "You can please all of the people sometimes and some of the people always, but never all of the people all the time."
Again, great mod and ideas, keep it up. This new, inexperienced player likes what you've done.  ;D

I really like RKEditorChoiceEdition mod. If you pay attention to the 'Choice' portion you will see what I think was @RedKetchup purpose. It is a choice, and in the earlier posts it was indicated that this mod was some of the things that Red liked to play with. It has also been indicated that it will run with CC 1.75 which will give you a great choice of building that use both vanilla and advanced materials for construction. I have found that using CC 1.75 under the RKEditior mod gives me that choice and allows me to play and build my experience with the new materials. I am a very slow learner but I want to use the new materials as they present me a great challenge in playing options.


It is my great hope that @RedKetchup continues with expanding this fantastic mod for this game.

yeah as name and people thoughts suggest... it is primary a mod for me for playing the way i would love to do, and it doesnt bother me to add things people would want to get inside even if i didnt thought about it , yet, for myself.

for sure i am continuing this, and next is : the ghosted 2 tiles fence arch, the nmt school and brambles-firewood as spawns (if brambles is a good english name for it)

Post by: Denis de la Rive on March 20, 2018, 07:27:33 PM
Two questions, are you certain you want to be dependent on other mods, in particular CC to make this mod work, and are you really aiming at making an expert level mod? You must realize the consequences of your answers to those questions. There is nothing wrong with any answer you come up with but you must make sure that people know what you are doing.

Having a clear idea of what is going on will certainly make the design process simpler, and help your testers to make more useful comments. As it stands, I can't understand what your objective is, this is creating some confusion as to what comments are useful, and which ones are wasting everybody's time.

I think that players rely too much on mod makers to create challenges, always seeking personalized mods instead of inventing their own ways to make the game more interesting. The question of what a mod should do is very complex, but it should try to include as many players as possible. Its a wonderful thing that should be used by as many people as possible.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on March 20, 2018, 07:32:25 PM
this mod is not at all "dependant" of other mods. fully operational by itself.
but i know people will never play this mod alone and i cannot (and i dont want to) ask people to play only this mod and put everybody else work in the garbage !!

i will never do that. so it will always be "compatible" with other mods as much as possible. but it never as been "dependant"
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Denis de la Rive on March 20, 2018, 09:40:15 PM
Compatibility must not stop you from making sure that your mod is as complete as possible, there is no way you can predict which mods people will use, you must assume that your mod can be played alone. This make all your design choices that much more important. It can be frustrating if you are playing and you are forced to turn to other mods that aren't created by the same person. With your work, the visual is important, and that may create problems when you are trying to make a nice looking village. :)

@RedKetchup  :)Thank you for the new update. I like that you added -seedling to Grenhouse and Fodder-tath to Wood cutter - less cutting out beautiful trees.
1. I have a question - is Wooden Butcher, who is processing wild animals but the lack of Watch Tower - hunts wild game and tailor what makes clothes from fur - can you add to RkEditor Choice? because I am forced to added the mod "RK Training Camp Main - and it often happens to me that I forget about adding it and I have to new start
2. The jeweler makes various decorations - but there is no precious stone mine? where to get them? do I have to play "My Precious" or CC - maybe you can add gemstone mines?
3. I really like the new Orchand - is it possible to make a separate mod or segment? - Grapefruit, Lemon Lime, Mango, Banana, Orange, Acai, Blackberry, Cranberry, Raspberry, Date, Pineapple, Date - everything you added to the new one? - I am asking you - I like trees and these shrubs to grow - only in this set they occur. We have a mod "Palm Tree start" and CC Terrians - Kralyerg - there is a hot climate - I do not fit to grow these plants - Tropical Greenhouse - please consider my proposal - maybe this segment  it will be useful for a new project "Rise of the Pharash" Cheers! :D

Hi Taniu

i can maybe add the watch tower to it at some point. In RK thats the regular hunter cabin who take care of these now. haven't you noticed it ? the hunter cabin catch all those exotic animals.
and the regular tailor can make warm coats with furs and even fur coats which is also a warm coat but with more value.

to get gems you need to build the Random Mine. that is the one which drop gems.


you are right, one day i need to do this stand alone NMT3.0: Orchards mod
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: taniu on March 23, 2018, 12:52:02 PM
@RedKetchup :D Thank you for explaining my problems. I know what the reason was that the hunter did not hunt for particular wild animals, eg, bears, etc.
Attention players
If you play with RKChoice Beta11 mod, you add Wild Grouses - Tatypredator. Colonial Charter Modular-Kralyerg - fashion kid1293 is:
"Hunting cabin" - kills deer and wild game in general - Game - you have to upload the mod "Rk Training Camp Main - where is the Watch Tower, which hunts for Bear, Bison, Boar, Hare etc. - then" Wooden Butcher "- processes meat of individual wild animal - Bear, bison, Boar, Hare etc.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: taniu on March 23, 2018, 01:21:13 PM
@RedKetchup :) further explanation :
Without "Wild Grouses" - Hunting hunts particular wild animals and Butcher processes them - there are more animals in the forest that can be hunted and can be seen in the forest - a very nice thing. - no problem @RedKetchup but maybe you can only add Watch Tower - for my whim - I leave the decision to you - I like the player all that is new? have Wild Groses or walking individual wild animals in the forest?
I have not tested the rest of my arguments because you do not have enough time - would like a day if you have 48 hours, unfortunately my family got ill, now I have trouble - but I hope it will be - OK
I noticed when testing RK Editor Choice Beta11 - "Kid Friendly Neighborhood" - butcher does not make SAUSAGES - but this thread will be written in @ Kid1293

yeah @taniu  , if you put wild grouse on top, you will have walking wild grouse in the forest but you wont have any other animals (exept deers)
if you put RK Ed on top you will have tons of new animals walking in the forest but you wont have Tany wild grouse :(

thats sad and thats the way the game is made. thats the game biggest limitations.

I agree with Denis. I don't need all things in one game. If I have pigs and white birds in this game I'll be more happy about the wild grouse in the next. This way every game is memorable.

But I entered WoB to see if I find anything about the gems, gemstones, gold and silver. And if not, ask @RedKetchup how they are flagged. I haven't really tested this chain (only made the buildings and ran them for a short time in an earlier game), so I find, now is time to make a severe testing. To build the right stores in my random mining area, I need to know the flags.

ok

Silver ore is Mineral and once you make bars, it is Forged.
Gold ore is Mineral and once you make bars, it is Forged.
Gems (uncut) are Mineral and once you cut them, they are Precious.
all Jewelries (rings, necklace, etc...) are Precious too.


Silver ore worth : 12 ; you harvest 1-2
Silver bar worth : 30 ; you create 2-3
Gold ore worth : 24 ; you harvest 1-2
Gold bar worth : 50 ; you create 2-3

Gems(uncut) worth : 200 and when you cut them you only take 1 and create 1
Amethyst worth : 60 ; chances: 8/21
Topaze.... worth : 80 ; chances: 5/21
Emerald.. worth : 250 ; chances: 3/21
Sapphire. worth : 300 ; chances: 2/21
Ruby....... worth : 400 ; chances: 2/21
Diamond. worth : 1000 ; chances: 1/21


Jewelry : to take bars + gems and create different number of items which worth different value. They all Precious.
With Silver bars :
Silver Ring...... : need 1 silver bar, 3 coal, 1 amethyst ; ..you create 4-5 worth 50 each
Silver Brooch... : need 1 silver bar, 3 coal, 1 topaze ; .....you create 3-4 worth 80 each

Not knowing work or investment, I find these very generous. If you have the needed buildings cost a lot and make work a large number then you can find a nice balance, without changing the numbers. You can also reduce the uneducated output, and have a larger range so that a greater profit can be made form educated workers. It takes a lot of time and skill to make jewelry.

You can also reduce the uneducated output, and have a larger range so that a greater profit can be made form educated workers. It takes a lot of time and skill to make jewelry.

first you need to mine in the random open sky mine. and find gems. 1 chance on 21 to get an uncut gem (4.76% chance)
second you need to get good RNG about getting the best gems cuts.
third : uneducation cut any profit almost in half, at least the the highest ones, (lose one third or one quarter in lowest..)
fourth: you can buy gems from merchants, but merchant should sell only 1 or very few at the time. and if you preorder, you should pay more than its value.

16 working units to cut a gem, 20 work units to make a fancy jewelry.


buildings cost materials :
Gem Cutter : 8 wood, 24 lumber, 16 stones, 18 bricks, 6 glass, 40 working units.
Jewel Maker : 8 wood, 24 lumber, 16 stones, 18 bricks, 6 glass, 40 working units.


Open sky Random mine : 42 wood, 80 work units to build, miners get 1 RNG every 40 work units.
(the 2 other mines thats doesnt give gems cost about the same, and need same working time to get a RNG.)

i took my original 3D and i've cut it from 14 tiles width to 8 tiles and deleted alot of things and moved things around to make something out of it :)

(on screen 2 , i need to fix a little thing though ^^ the step is high sometimes, i need to add a custom ground to the pasture part ^^)

The port doesn't look too small, so I think 1/3 of vanilla is reasonable (unless it's very cheap).

I could have used the school in my present game.

just did a couple of fixes about the smaller barns interaction. bannies were going to the sides of the smaller barns instead to go at the doors.
when beta 12 will be release, people will have to delete the smaller barns and rebuild those, they will see their graphic turned 90 degres

When you're looking at barns, maybe you can also think about the content of the forest barn. I thin it's fine, that it can hold the normal things that are produced in the forest; food, textiles (leather) and logs but my barns are full of fodder, bricks and lumber so there's no space left for any food. I would take away building material, stone, ores..... Even if the forester may get some of these materials at the beginning, it's just for a short time.

I am with Nilla on the contents of the forest barn.  Mine is getting full of sand, clay, bricks and rooftiles.  I  have a materials store next to the sand, clay and kilns, but the bannies like to carry the bricks, sand and clay into the forest 

Maybe you can make one of your mini barns hold materials like the ores and stone, things a forester might wind up picking up as he is planting new trees.

i disagree.many times the forester is placed where he will gather excess stonea nd ores.plus the thatch-fodder is lie firewood to the houses out there. in a pine forest there are other items collected as well,pine pitch and boughs.different way of playing. i think the % or priority of storage space could be adjusted to help store more food though.

That would be a good solution, adjusting the forest barn to store more food than the other items.

bah they got construction cause originally, lumbermill was a forest center district. and construction now can be alot of things... bricks... glass... copper....thatch...

thats the flags allowed :
   RawMaterialFlags _storageFlags = Edible | Tool | Health | Fuel | Wood | Textile | Grain | Vegetable | Fruit | Protein | Custom5;

i can take out the construction of it (custom5).

Have you also looked at the canal stores? As I said, I would prefere, it they wouldn't contain "stock pile stuff". But as always; it's your mod and if you like it that way, I have to live with it. It's no big deal to build a barn for a canal fisher at the side of the canal, but I would prefere, if he could put his catch in the canal store right beside.

i replaced this line:

Post by: Nilla on March 27, 2018, 08:42:26 AM
I'm very happy about the canal store. :)

I'm not sure, if it's necessary to change the output from the grass. Although I have observed, that the output is very different between different years, this might help to get a similar output from year to year.

I just looked of the production last year; I have 4 fodder farmers and because the place is a bit too flooded with thatch, I have only one forester in each at the moment. The production is between 84 and 52. A stable with 2 worker produce about 210 fertilizer; for this it needs 70 fodder, that's about the average for one farmer. So it fits; 1 foddderfarmer, 2 stables, 5 or maybe 6 greenhouses and some wells. (two workers in each stable and fodder farmer)

But it wouldn't be overpowered, to increase the amount of fodder, so let's try it. If you split the 5000-6000 food you get out of the greenhouses on all people involved in this rather complicated chain, it's less than a farmer on a normal sized field.

It will be interesting to see which numbers @smurphys7 will produce.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on March 27, 2018, 08:48:42 AM
yup , we will see with those numbers.... cause with only 1 worker, it is pretty low.

For perspective, in value created per time: Honey 2. Fish (Pond) 2. Sand 1.75.  Firewood (Log) 3.5.  Iron Tool 1.8.

Fertilizer 0.1.  Beans 2.  Seedling -0.08.  At the Greenhouse

I am confident on the Fertilizer number.  I am not confident on the Bean nor Seedling number.  The files I am looking at may be the wrong ones.  Assuming you have minimum distances and unlimited available materials real close by, do you make about 700ish Beans per year per worker?  How about Seedling, 80ish per year per worker?

I have never made these buildings myself.  If you don't have these numbers available I will make a town to test them.

I started to write a little in my blog but got /got myself interrupted all the time. It has a lot of do with balancing, so I might as well post it here.

Finally, my mines give enough gemstones to run a gemcutter continously. I have 7 random mines with 6 miner in each, maybe it´s one mine too much, 6 would do as well. These mines also give a lot of other materials. My store of gold and silver increases, I now produce all/most tools I need. I can use the stones and the coal, I export the salt. But all the same; this is no good bussiness. I have made some notes but not calculated any numbers, so I can´t say in detail, but I also think it doesn´t matter. It´s more like an achievement; if you have a healthy settlement you can afford to build it and produce this way. It´s funny. So I like it.

But like so often, there are ways to use this in a way that would make it profitable, even very profitable: I´ve made an order for one of the cheaper gemstones; Amethyst. The merchant brought 150. Even with the order value of 75 it would be profitable to produce jewels. If I didn´t had all these mines, I would also order gold or silver (ore or bars ?), I haven´t done this and I don´t know how much each merchant would bring, but I guess enough.

Worse, if I started to order diamonds. Even with the ordering cost, it would give an annual profit more than 30 000 if you produced diamond jewels. I don´t know how much diamonds a merchant would bring. Anyhow, in your case @RedKetchup I would try to limit the possibility to buy gemstones.

Post by: RedKetchup on March 27, 2018, 09:09:44 AM
if you had 6 miners in 7 mines = 42 citizens . to feed them it ask you 42,000 food per year. or it is 4,200 ? lol

but maybe it is the best to close that flag from merchants ? and that way too , you will be happy to see they dont try to sell a silver pendant ? hehe

Nilla are you arguing with yourself now? you had RED tweak the numbers cause you compared the # of workerrs and the amount of space to farmers. the whole chain functions based on YOUR math.

   i like excess fodder since my bannies burn some and use it for construction including RED's wood houses. i'd still like a milk stable to eat fodder and give milk and fertilizer,maybe small amounts of leather.that would add more food to the chain and help Nilla's math comparison too.

If he tweaked them, it was the opposite way, as I suggested, but it doesn't matter. It's his mod and I'm happy with it. And he just said, that he increased the fodder production, so be happy.

Again to the jewels. It's not easy. If you take them away from the merchants, the jeweler will not be used often in a normal game, it would be a pity. It's nice. If you leave them, there would be a possible product with an enormous profit. What about gold and silver? I guess the merchants already bring as little as possible. If you choose to mine for the precious gems, somewhere there had to be a profit. Maybe take them away from the merchants and increase the probability to find a gemstone or change the recipe of the gemcutter, to give more than 1 gemstone from each gem, and maybe lower the profit from each jewel.

and also , i remind the fact i changed the work required for resources in the mines, including the random mine :) so should get more chances of random gems

Post by: Nilla on March 27, 2018, 09:39:35 AM
I just made a screenshot from one of my fodder-fertilizer greenhouse area. The values are very typical and also has a pedagogic value.;)

There is one greenhouse where the production was very bad last year. The chart where this greenhouse should get its dung is full of clay and sand. I also guess that there wasn´t very much fertilizer in the other chart quite close to this greenhouse, so the botanist had to walk far to get it. This can easily happen. Sometimes ther´s fertilizer enough but despite more wells than needed, no water in the close barns. This also sets the production down.

Edit; As I wanted to close the picture I saw that I made a mistake as I set the arrows. I hop this time it´s right.

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on March 27, 2018, 09:59:10 AM
I haven't really looked at the values for gold and silver. It's a small product. It's profitable to process what you find on the ground to bars at the foundry, but you'll never have so much, that it will help you support the settlement. Mining for it hasn't payed off and I doubt it will, even after these changes Red talks about. I just looked at @smurphys7 spreadsheet and it says too, that especially gold bars has a high win, related to worktime. But you'll need the ore and it's rare, at least in this mod.

I can live with the higer probability of accidents but if this makes us more willing to mine ourselves, it´s not a bad idea.

Post by: Denis de la Rive on March 27, 2018, 10:28:27 AM
First, I think that you are finding a good balance to the jewelry chain, removing some flags from merchants will fix much of it. You can't fix the actual numbers the merchants bring, but its the best we can do. If this continues to be a problem, you can change the input/output formula or the final trade value. Work is already high, if I remember as is the difference between educated, uneducated. I don't need the numbers. This is possibly the best that can be done.

I think that a mod with production chains, needs at lest one chain that can be used to for trading, if only to save you after something bad happens.

The other changes also make sense, it will improve the storage situation. I always found it strange that you could not use the water from the food well for firefighting, so that is a good fix.

All things considered, I like how you are playing with what are minor factors like the death % to make your mode even more different from vanilla. You are looking at the whole game, not just a single factor, and that makes a better mod. :)

Little UI changes too!  :)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on March 27, 2018, 10:32:13 AM
I think these changes; no precious from merchants are good. Otherwise you would need to change the recipes from the jeweler. What I don't know, is how this coexist with other mods. Here I guess we must ask our friends @brads3. Are there mods you can load and get the diamonds and have some 30 000 profit from one site? Are there other precious things, people like to buy from the merchants who also disappears?

What about merchants buying precious? Do they still want to buy my jewels? I hope so, otherwise it would be bad.

Is reducing the value and/or quantity produced of Jewelry Maker products not feasible?

If my math was correct, the Random Mine and the Gem Cutter were not issues.  If anything, those two need increased results.  The Jewelry Maker edit and the foundry are the sources of large profitability issues.

I'll give you some actual numbers: I have made some notes before and just looked into my 7 mines: Each mine has 6 miners, none is upgraded.

Annual number of gems: 2 - 3 - 0 - 4 - 5 - 0 - 5 - 0 - 2 - 5 - 4 - 4 - 2 =36 gems/13*6 miner

was thinking of something like the  center to the forest district that creates random items. but instead of forest items,it could give random homestead items. say flour,apples,butter,coats,firewood,etc. stuff that people would have made themself at their homes during the winter months. maybe a park-like square with a work shed,small animal pen,an apple tree,some flowers or a garden. something that could be placed next to a house to make a nice farmette or homestead setting.

so i was checking about the idea of minimize icons on everything that has a worker.....

i did tried to make a batch of those. and noticed some things happening.

some are OK like TP... TH... hospitals/clinic/barber/etc like this, schools....

but when the UI has a feature to toggle to statistics UI like previous/current year... it doesnt work. not with that code at least. i copied over the same "2 paragraph" that is used to get the minimize button in each template and when it has a current/previous year window ....

it prevails and switch to statistic UI when we click on minimize. it doesnt minimize , instead it switch to statistics. as you can see to the right of the screen. all those place have stats and doesnt work that way. not with that code. i dont know if i can make something different.

the very little title bars in middle right are those working fine.

the market in middle left is not working, nothing happends when you click on it.

and everything to the left, are those i didnt put the 2 paragraphs code yet.
and if you compare screenshot 2 , from those not done yet... if i took out all those i know they have a statistic sheets and which wont work... whats left are those i am sure it will work OK.

So now when you create a new map (although probably you will see it in the future inside your saved games.....)
you will find a new wild resource on the ground :)

The Dead Woods.
those can be harvested by your gatherers and will give 3-4 firewood :)
can also be harvested manually with a new icon toolbar : Collect Dead wood.

Very nice indeed. Really like the idea, if anyone has every been in a forest the fallen or deadwood is the best for firewood. Wonder if using the fallen trees as dead wood and giving 1.5 or 2 times fire wood would be possible? My guess would be not but gotta ask anyway.

we cannot ask a tree, nor a fallen tree to drop 2 things in sme time, it is 1 shot and nothing more. the number of firewood is set inside the firewood template, not in the fallen tree template.

Beta 12 available !!!!!

Added :
Trading Post: Seeds (and Livestock). A new smaller, cheaper trading post to help you getting seeds and livestock more quicker in game. Cost: 36 wood, 27 stone, 8 iron, 80 work.
Medieval School is back. Good for 40 students, this school cost 48 lumber, 26 stone, 12 iron, 8 copper and 24 glass. 5x5 with road, you can build a floor 3 on it.
Deadwood spawns. Now the forest and the meadows will spawn deadwood which can be harvested for firewood.
Collect Deadwood Icon will help you to harvest those spawns manually. The gatherers will be in charge to collect those.

Fixes :
Fixed smaller barns dummies. Citizens will now get to the doors to pickup things.
Fixed Covered stockpile building process. you should get a proper build UI now.

Changes:
You will need 3 thatched-fodder now to make 1 shot of firewood (down from 5)
Made the grass available quicker for harvest in hope to boost the fodder farmers building.
Took out all extra storage flags from canal dock.
Added Firefighting capability to the water well.
Added auto pickup button on crops and orchards.
Seedings value is now 2 value.
Deleted the precious flag from all merchants, they wont try to sell you those anymore. they will still accept yours.
Mines&Quarries: It will be alot faster to get resources from all the mines and quarries.
Changed prices of those resources and lowered the amount sold from merchants in counter measures.
All professions should be in alphabetical order now.
I doubled the working units to build a root cellar.
I added a minimize button on all building windows i could add.

i lowered the amount of food across the board from -0.1% to -10%. fish got up though and greenhouse are 10% faster. Raw meat got the biggest cut, although the lowest new ones got boosted (hare/birds).
All 2nd tier processed food stayed the same though.

Various changes to work required to craft items in many buildings.

Enjoy !!

I'm looking forward to try this.:)

Something special you want to have tested? I had an idea to play a part of the game with uneducated people. (wait 50 years or so until I build a school). It looks like many players use to take a lot of nomads and play with a really low educational rate, so maybe it would be nice to know, how the game works without education.

so i was wondering and asking what i can do as extra with flowers ? (out of perfume) to make flowers more important and more useful.

at some point, i was maybe thinking to add "paints" as material resources needed like in colored fences... colored buildings like country house / colorful little house / boston house..... and would need to put some on those building sites.....

and i am also exploring if i should delete the "health" flag from herbs and push people to build an "apothecary" to take like 1 herb and 2 flowers and make an "health elixir" which would be the only item with "health" flag ?

the "health" flag is what allow citizens to go to herbalist (or bath house) and get a 1/2 heart back

What flag would herbs then have?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Nilla on April 03, 2018, 01:01:44 AM
I've been thinking about the use of flowers, too. Not that I really need them to have a larger importance. Sometimes beauty is enough. But there is one thing slightly disturbant, and that's the fact that the Bannis don't need any flowers or the only thing you can make from them; perfume. This makes it impossible/bad to play without trade, if you want to. And since many of your other changes work in the direction of making trade less interesting, it would be a logical step to find some more use for the flowers, something for the Bannis.

I really don't think, that taking away the herbs is a good idea. Herbs has always been used for healing. Force us to produce something not that natural, doesn't sound the right way to go. But maybe some additional medication, to use as alternative to herbs. If you don't want to create a new building, the perfume maker could offer a second product.

It might still be hard to get rid of the flowers in a mature=healthy settlement, if you want to play isolationist and use the fodder-fertilizer chain. If you don't build any "flower pickers", the thatch farmers pick quite a lot of flowers and if you want a lot of thatch, it's good to locate the florist there to; the result no matter what; you will need to get rid of a lot of flowers. I don't think that my last settlement would have needed that much medication.

What other options may you have? food? There's so much other food so rather no? Maybe for happiness; something like ale. They go to the flower shop, bye some flowers and get happy?

i can maybe give the flag : "harvested natural resources but not through mining" flag aka materials ^^ for sure it wouldnt be food.
people already dont have too much problem with health... a 2nd item that would give health, a crafted one ? yeah can be.
maybe change the florist for Flower Picker ? lol and then make a florist which would make bouquets of flowers and can be consume at tavern/florist ? (aka alcohol/luxuries) thats also a possibility.

if i made that post is to have ideas :)

Added Boston Houses :)

modified a bit : down to 90%, i added the same transparent windows i made for the school :) and i added 1 model non-paint
of course, the material required has been changed to : 54 lumber, 6 stones and 30 glasses. the heat efficacy has been up to 108. still good for 6 occupants (2 adults, 4 children)


EDIT:
there is a little possibility that i will scale them down a bit more and a possibility i change the non-painted wood to the wood texture i mostly used so far. :)

and i am at the recipe part....


i have a crazy idea  :P

whats about deleting wheat from tavern and replace it with malt   ::)
and do a MaltHouse which will take all cereals and turn it into malt
and with malt, we do beer which same value or maybe less like 6, but doing more of those, like 50-60% more

i know i ll add back hops... i wondering if i should add the hops into the malt process, or in the tavern process

Making the Boston house smaller is good!  Would you consider updating your separate Boston house mod for when someone wants it as a stand alone?

I like your new tavern.  I am not sure about changing it from the usual tavern products.

Real beer making sounds fun. But you know, wheat can also be used for beer. Many Germans, especially in the south, can't do without their Weissbier. But of course barely is the most common crop for beer and if you make a malthouse, different crops could probably be used. Just one thing; if you make a more complicated process, beer needs to be more profitable than ale; to sell, or better; increase in value for the Bannis. Maybe you can make like @Tom Sawyer and let it be food. In Bavaria where I lived for many years, they call beer a "Grundnahrungsmittel"; basic nourishment. ;)

yeah thats what i read. in fact, in medieval times, they said that beer was even given to children and beer was more "safe" to drink than water (cause water can hold bacterias that can give diseases) it is a very nourishing drink.

wheat will be in the process to make malt, along some other grains. instead of a windmill that will convert grains to flour, the malt house (as they call it) will convert grains to malt. the same process will be applying and will have around the same numbers. for sure beer will be more profitable than pure traditional ale. maybe they can value less? but can control the total gain by setting the number of beer made. since it has a process level additional, the overall gain will be higher.
not sure about food though, because it is already too easy to get food.

..........not sure about food though, because it is already too easy to get food.

In one way, you're right; it's easy to get enough food. But what are the real alternatives the way the game is now? To make ale/beer for your population is a waste. It's said to increase the happiness, but does it? Not really! You can run a brewery for fun, just because you can afford it; like an achievement. Or it will be another export product. But don't we have enough of those?

It will be a choice of three not perfect things; food/export/only fun. I wish that happiness (and health) would have a larger impact on the gameplay. I know, @Tom Sawyer is working on this and I hope he will find something good.

   this is 1 of those ideas from TOM's North that i hoped would have an affect with my game setup.it did work on KIDD's taverns. from what i saw , some is food and some is luxury. i think vanilla terms like ale is food, and cider or rootbeer is luxury still.i would assume wine would work as food.
       this is where we have to think outside the box since the game limits us.we don't have fruit juice and the bannies don't technically drink water even.so as players we can think of ale or wine as a juice not neccessarily alcohol.cider actually is juice when it is made. it must set and ferment before becoming hard cider. if left too long it will become vinegar.
      TOM tags beer as grain food. i would have thought it would work more like honey and give multiple food groups.RED's idea of changing the process could also add water and increase the volume.

If you do this it will be easier when I decide to make my Strathisla style distillery in the future, an extra Malt house will be good to keep up production to make whisky :)

i had to redo the walls.... delete the water pipes....
they had way too much polygons for an house. and also the fact the wood planks walls were in 3d ... it was making thousand of shadow ants runnning endlessly on the walls. they are now alot more simple
so i made the wall straight and i am counting now only on the .png effects to give a nice touch.

it is available now :) here : http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?topic=2382.0 (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?topic=2382.0)

Boston Houses 2 version 1.0

It is another version of the famous Boston houses.

it comes in 4 colors. they cost 54 wood to build. they are good for a family of 6, heat efficacity of 98. they are 4x5(4+1road).

Hi Redketchup. You chances to update or supplement mod New Medieval Castle-Beta v 0.2a wall and Moats. The Colonial Charter really has a lot of walls to surround the city, but the medieval style is not very suitable. And these walls would be perfect to surround the city center, and approach the kid1293 Gothic Fantasy, Gothic Farm mod.

so i was drawing the Malt House...

i have a couple of details ... The Malt House Sign... some decorations... maybe a fence... still to do


edit: some explanation about the building....

the big part to the left is the grain floor or germination floor.
the little part to the right is the office and grinder.
the big tower is the malt kiln

the grain is lying on the ground for germination, once it has been developped as we call green malt, it is sent to the malt kiln to be dry. then it is grinded and rdy to be transfert to the tavern which will brew it into beer.

the value of Ale will drop to 6 offering only a +100% profit, while the Beer will take its place at 8 value.

Looks good. Minor suggestions:
- The roof on the little part should be at the same slope/height as the one on the big part (one continuous roof).
- Keep stone texture only on the lower section of walls.

My two cents.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on May 05, 2018, 05:37:48 AM
the thing will higher stone walls... it need to have a better control of temperature and humidity. (which stones provide)

I'm sorry for my mistake - you're right @ Redketchup - it should be Rise - but it's just a bad 1 letter c - instead of s - but that's not a big problem - I just wanted to remind you about such a great project and theme - Egypt - Tom - He joked - not everyone knows English perfectly - I think you'll forgive me this little mistake? I apologize for the confusion - I still like this project, and the idea differs from all mods in Banished? Am I right ? Cheers!

hehe dont worry , nobody will ever get that against you !!! never !
but we've got to make fun of your lapsus :)

it is been a month i didnt done anything :( i need today to get back and get a new RK ED beta going on, or possibly, making it "live" official release and maybe add to it later on.
after i ll check to offer a Rise of the Pharaoh partially in Beta.

it looks like the very last thing i did was my Malt House building. so now i need to do all my recipes. (MaltHouse recipes and Tavern recipes)

i can say... i am so lost ^^

@RedKetchup :D thanks - Not once a man makes a small mistake by carelessness but everything has been explained and now he is Ok - work at his own pace - I know that such a mod is really hard work - I like all your mods and ideas. I am glad that you did not abandon this project about Egypt and it will be a beta version. Returning to RK ED - the Malt House building is fantastic - what will it produce? flour? Cheers!
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on May 18, 2018, 06:40:46 PM
it will produce Malt
and Malt will be made from all grain. 12 grain = 24 malt

and it will be used to make " Beer ". 10 malt = 6-10 beer at 8 value
simple ale will go down to 6 value (Blueberries, Cherries, Peaches, Pears, Pumpkins, Apples)
will be able to make strong beer if you add a +1 hop and will value at 10

there will be wine too (Blackberries, Grapes, Plums, Raspberries, Red Mulberries, Strawberries or Watermelons, Apricots, Mango)
and mead from honey
checking if i can come up something for spirits

A really beautiful looking plant, but I'm sorry to say; I wouldn't have recognized it as hops. In my area hops grows very fast on 5 meter tall pikes and it "disappears" in winter. But it might be different in other parts of the world. I only know it from Sweden and German, so no complain. ;)

for alcohol making only.

yeah i tried to make thing slim and tall, but was very ugly so i tried different at the end. it is looking better even if it is not exact at reality. those are kinda similar to grapes, it need support, poles, wires.... but since the game is always turning things around on 360 degrees, we cant make those.

so i did it like that and look better

Do you mean that the game rotates seasonal plants with the camera? If so, you can use my custom billboard material that disables it :)

it is not the foliage planes the game can rotate for randomness, it is the complete mesh. if you make a decoration item, it wont be turned around.
but if you do a "natural" resource item , it has some spawn code and has also some hidden spawn code that will RNG the number of degrees and will rotate it.

thats a code Luke made to give some illusion to have x% more models. the view on a tree or a crop or a bush can be different depending the degres on 360.
and this code activate whenever it need to RNG a spawn. a spawn in the forest, in a crop, in an orchard.
go back and watch my orchard, you will see tons of different view and it looks like i made like a dozen of model. but in fact i made only 1 model that has been turned around by the game.
it is not the billboard effect.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Voeille on May 29, 2018, 06:47:01 AM
I see, the game just randomly rotates things for a more diverse look, like a mod for trees in Cities Skylines. How is it a problem with making the plant taller though? I think it'd still look good :) For all I can see in the pictures it only rotates things around the Z axis (assuming Z axis is the vertical one, it depends on the game, some have Z and some have Y as vertical for all I know), so it shouldn't change the shape or position of your model, just the rotation.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on May 29, 2018, 06:56:16 AM
it is a problem if you try to add a support (a set of poles and wires to support those thing in this picture, check on top in the sky) take out those support and those plant will never success to go that high. they all will fall to the ground.
(https://static.vinepair.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/hops-field-social.jpg)
so if you put some support frame, if it doesnt rotate, they would all imbricate together, but since they are always rotated, the frame never imbricate and expand evrywhere all around.


so some little bushes are good. although i made them 1m - 1m20 high and with some poly count saved, i added one at 2 third high and added another one at 1 third high. with 3 plants in triangle formation, it looks more better instead of 1 very thin tall one which was super ugly.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Voeille on May 29, 2018, 07:08:32 AM
What about a pole inside the plant? I mean, it would look like a pole in that picture, but it would be placed in the plant and look like the plant is growing around it, would that work?

pretty sure it will still look too thin, too weird alone in its 2x2 tiles or 2x3 tiles (not dense, vanilla) orchard :)

Post by: Freedom on May 29, 2018, 08:37:02 AM
The hops look fine to this player. They are obvious and distinctly different enough from other crop/orchard models that they won't be confused for anything else. I enjoy the brewers efforts but haven't seen hops growing so a hop plant without a support system is not something I'd notice. If an easy tweak makes the model more realistic, great. If it becomes more involved, I don't know that this player would properly appreciate all the added work that you put into it. 

In perspective, the game is full of oversized mushrooms, bannies who walk across the bottom of rivers to place logs at a building site, but who then freeze death because they won't take a half step off a dock piece that isn't connected to the next one yet, etc, etc. Absolute accuracy is not a requirement in my opinion.

I think it's a nice model already. I would suggest to try it in a cropfield instead an orchard. And to add some small poles or things like that where they can climb. Just like in the picture here. Would not make problems with rotation.

but you need to keep in mind about the small poles would "grow" as same as the plant itself. although i made it so it will be full growth the 2nd year and start to give hops the 2nd autumn.


BTW, all, i will release a beta 13 soon in a day or 2. and after it will be an RC build which wont be compatible.

If you made a set of ghost deco pieces for poles then they will all line up. The plants could just be a column of green that isn't directional, similar to what you have already modelled. It would be interesting to see an orchard that has wooden support structures and vines rather than just trees.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Tom Sawyer on May 30, 2018, 12:14:34 AM
Ah yes, a ghosted item for poles or racks from a deco toolbar would solve it. Players can put them on the field if they want a perfect look or not if they don't care. I like this idea. About the plant, as far as I know they harvest it completely every year and it grows new from the ground in spring. There are actually no wooden parts staying in winter as it is with wine or such.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: elemental on May 30, 2018, 12:19:17 AM
I would like to see ghost deco poles used with other crops such as tomatoes and cucumbers. It would make the fields look a bit more interesting.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on May 30, 2018, 04:12:26 PM
for the moment, i dont have any plans to release some deco poles... not for the moment.

compiling a last one to see if a last minute change in the UI of the tavern is ok... and then i will zip the Beta 13 and upload it :)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on May 30, 2018, 04:46:25 PM


Build Beta 13 is available !!!!:

Changed all the tavern/alcohol production chain. Although you will able to continue to make the old ale (which has been lowered to 6 value), you will now able to make beer and strong beer.
A new building has been made : The MaltHouse. This new building will take your grain and make a new resource: malt. the tavern will take your malt and make beers of it. Strong beer will also require hops resource, the value of beer will be 8 value, strong beer will have a value of 10. A new orchard plant : Hops has been made.

it is possible i made some tweaks here and there... but i can't remember what ^^ hehe

WARNING Save Compatibilities: you ABSOLUTELY need to destroy all your taverns in all your RK Ed save games before making the switch or you wont be able to load those save games. This is because the look of the tavern has changed, making it non compatible with old vanilla tavern.

Enjoy !!

Oh darn! Now my favorite trade gambit--ale for everything--will be less profitable. But if I can make real beer I guess I can live with it. The existential question is, should I use barley and make lager or should I use wheat and make hefeweisen?  ;)

I'm glad you like them, but you don't have to use them all. I made lots of them because it's hard to know how they will look in the game. So just pick and choose which ones you think are best and leave out the others. We can fine tune some of the colours if they aren't right. I'd say the yellow one could be better. Perhaps more of a pale yellow?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread

i made a pause on this. While i need to make some critical changes to RK Editor Choice mod... and starting to prepare it for the first Release Candidate :)

i ve got to fix today some bugs abour the colorful little fences color 0-9 were ok, but color 11-12 were missing text. i took that opportunity to add a white color one as color 10. i had it planned but since i added white fence set, i didnt made it. but that set are very different models, so i finally added the white one.
also there was a missing icon "dot" at diagonal no paint one and when clicking on the "dot" it was crashing the game.

i am not sure if the bugs happended after i started my critical changes or before , and if it appears in beta 13. but now it is fix ^^

@RedKetchup , you mentioned the goats have sound, I am wondering if Troy has managed to attach sound to any items like church bells or foghorns or train sounds.  I believe @Bartender was working on it, attaching sound to an invisible ghosted square but he was getting close but did not finish it.

sounds attached to animals is totally normal ! but sound attached to building isnt the same, it is totally easy to add both. but the thing with the sound attached to an invisible 1x1 building it will play all the time continuously. like a 1sec "dong" will become after 30 sec, 30 "dong" unless like i said back in time, you attached a 29 sec silence at the end of the 1 sec so it can sound once every 30sec.
a building will repeatly repeat it over and over.

an animal it is attached to 1 of his "event" , one of his (4) animations which is 1 walk, 3 idles. since it is attached to 1 of the idle, when the game "sometimes" play that specific idle, the sound start.

eventually goat will become standalone after RK Ed will have the exclusivity. thats a wonderful promotion tool ^^.

It's you Modders that have kept this game fascinating from the start, and keep players engaged! No matter how long I play this game, its never dull, always changing and totally fun! " Thanks to all of you fantastic Modders."
I also thank all Moderators with all my heart for their mods. I wrote here on the forum for the addition of goats and rabbits but only answered me @ kid1293. I wrote also on the forum "Black Liquid" - they replied that they can not help -
  I thought that nothing could be done in this area - and here is a nice surprise - my old heart rejoices and I am waiting for the release of mod with new animals. @ RedKetchup I currently play with toim mod "RKEditorChoice BETA13" and I added several mods @ kid1293 and @Discrepancy, @Necora - they only use decorative goats. But now the game is great you can say that a new "Banished 2" was born. Regards :D :D :D

If I understand right Troy does not mind you share the meshes and stuff after the release of Editor Choice?
If so this would be great.


I still hope Troy will someday explain what is different between a bought animated animal and how Luke did it.
Luke did something a bit different I think and that is why bought animated animals not work right out of the box in Banished.
At least i never got it to work :(

Wow, that's great to see all these new animals for Banished @RedKetchup. Good job to you and your friend! Is it using original animations from the bought models or did he create new bones and stuff? Pulling out so many animals it might be just a certain export option or any special setting in 3dsmax to break this wall. We should try to find out what to do. Maybe we can make the model from @embx61 working..

Hmm. I have also tried, no luck.

I went so far as to check Blender.
I imported White Chicken into Blender.
Exported without touching anything.
It did no longer work.
Some settings are not preserved. It really made me low.
I don't have the money to pay for 3DMax.

he told me he took some free 3D animal meshes and entirely did its bones, done its skellies, applied the meshes to the skellies. and then made its movements. 1 walk , 3 idles. he didnt told me, but i noticed he kinda "save the movements" (i know you can do that, save it for reloading on another scene) and applied the saved movements to every quadrupedes he did.
so yeah he made everything but the "statues" of the animals itself.


edit: take it as a dance, you can save the dance on harddrive and re-apply it to another animal. when at the next animal, you load the presets and load back the dance you did saved.
and you wrap everything up

i spent most of the evening to fix the "walking" animations of all those new animals "Livestocks" and "Wild Animals"
the walking animations were very choppy when they were chained together when they had to change "zones". very choppy.

i didnt played with the animal graphic files, but just with their xxxxAnims.rsc files where it is stipulated it should start at x frame and end at x frame. they are now alot more "fluid" :)


tonight i ll go play with the population numbers so we dont get too many and get the game lagy and still get some of them depending the size of the map.
i need to find the good median numbers. Quality play versus Quantity. the golden mean :)

each vanilla start condition calls up the default settings within:
Game/StartCondition/StartConditions.rsc

instead you can not call it up, include the needed code in your own start conditions, isolate the individual animals that are called up.

MapGenerator defaults
{
   WeakComponentDescription _populations
   [
      "Template/PopulationDeer.rsc",
   ]
}


that is the only way to do it. we can't attach the code to the terrains :(
has to be a start condition.

if in the special specific starting condition, i put a modified copy of WeakComponentDescription _livestocks
it has a priority ahead of the "general list" set in the general Game/StartCondition/StartConditions.rsc

for example, i just added a new starting condition named : Sheppard
and in that new start i told 0 seeds, 0 orchards, 2 livestocks.
and i've put a a very small modified copy of the start list of livestock like : only sheep, goats and longhorn cows....

it never chose in the big list even if it is there in the general Game/StartCondition/StartConditions.rsc
it chose 2 of the mini list (although it can choose 2 times the same one^^ like goats X 2 hehe)

thats good to know
but yeah, it cannot be placed in the terrain list.

Now you English speaking people must explain yourself. Again a poor non English person gets totally confused:

What is shepps?
I think I've also heard the word sheppard but it might be something else. Google translate says that it also means herdsman but I don't fully trust it. When I run the spellcheck here on WOB it doesn't want any of these words, but likes Sheppard, with a capital S.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Willows on June 16, 2018, 09:32:15 AM
Sheppard is a last name, fairly common. Shepard with an "a" has been used in recent years as a male first name. Shepherd with an "e" is "Sheep-herder" shortened to "shepherd".  In English it is not spelled with 2 "p"'s, but only 1.

Now, "shep" can be short for a type of dog known as German Shepherd, so named because they used to be used as sheep herding dogs.

And rkelly's use of "shepp" is a joke, a play on the word "sheppherd".

The problem is that English doesn't have standardized spelling rules, especially where surnames are concerned.  So, if a person herds sheep for a living, they're a shepherd.  But, the last name can be spelled in a few different ways, perhaps because the spelling reflects an old dialect, or perhaps because someone didn't know how to spell very well, or perhaps (in the US) the name was misspelled by a customs official at Ellis Island and so that's what it is now.  But also, the idea that names had to be spelled one particular way (or any word for that matter) is relatively new.  Did you know that William Shakespeare didn't spell his last name the same every time?

Thank you. I know, it's confusing and it's not only the spelling. English is a very difficult language. Not to learn the basics. That's easy. But to learn it proper, is very hard. I have lived in Germany and my husband is German. That was a hard language to learn at the beginning with its grammar rules. But after you've manage to understand these rules, the language is logical and uses the rules all the time. English doesn't have many grammar rules to learn. And those there are, have so many exceptions, that you can hardly speak of rules at all. But I'm happy, that I can communicate. And writing my blogs and other posts on this page make my English, maybe not better, but more fluent. That's what I want. :)

Sorry @RedKetchup for hijacking your thread!  :-\

so i finished to handle the wild animal populations...
you should get : 1 pack of each at small, 3 packs of each at medium, 8 packs of each at large, and 16 packs of each at very large.
(the hares, the foxes, the wolves, and partridges populations has been deleted since i didnt had any new meshes of these).

i also handled the starting conditions features and i already told you there was a new "Shepherd" condition...
i also added a Farmer and a Gatherers new start conditions.

here the stats:
"Adam&Eve"
"A standard very hard game with only 1 family, no child. 2 tools and 0 cloth, 250 food, 75 firewood, no building materials, no seeds, no livestock."
1 cart.

"Hard Alternate"
"An alternate of standard hard game with 4 families. 12 tools and 20 cloth, 1200 food, 100 firewood, no building materials, 1 seed, no livestock."
1 cart.

"Shepherd"
"A standard medium game with 3 families. 16 tools and 16 cloth, 1200 food, 120 firewood, 30 wood, no seeds, 2 livestocks."
1 cart.

"Farmer"
"A standard medium game with 3 families. 16 tools and 16 cloth, 1200 food, 100 firewood, 30 wood, 12 stone, 3 crop seeds, no livestock."
1 medium barn, a 2x4 yard.

"Gatherers"
"A standard mid-medium game with 3 families. 12 tools and 12 cloth, 800 food, 80 firewood, no building materials,  no seeds, no livestock."
1 gatherer shelter, 1 cart.

no it wont conflict. when there are some duplicated(like the ducks), they are specifically renamed to RKanimal to not conflict.

The Foundry should only need 2 of those. it was effectively taking 2, it was a typo only.

Something else you might want to check out. I tried loading a Shepherd game 6 times. It says you get 2 livestock but on four of those times I only got 1. This is on a large terrain size.
Once I got long horned cattle (spotted and solid color), twice I got goats and once I got sheep.
Finally on the fifth and sixth try I got Long horned cattle and sheep.

Also, it says you start with 16 tools, 16 cloth (I assume that means coats), 1200 food, 120 firewood and 30 wood. All I'm getting is tools, hide coats and food. No firewood or wood.

On Shepherd I get a cart. On Farmer I get a barn. Is there a reason for that? Farmer seems to load OK.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: embx61 on June 18, 2018, 03:48:50 AM
I just started a test run Shepherd Medium Map and get 2 livestock. Longhorn and sheep.
I think because there is no stockpile set in the map start by Red there are no logs and Firewood because there is no storage for it.

Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on June 18, 2018, 03:58:42 AM
the thing with the RNG at the start of the game is you can get 2X times the same thing. it was also the same with crops and orchards. But those 2 since the list is extremly long, the chance to get 2 times the same is very very rare. Livestock list is very small so instead to get 2x 6 animals, you sometimes get 1x 12 animals (you get 2 times 6 animal of the same breed)

but... i wanted to do something and i should reverse it: i prefered to have some kind of shepherd herd: sheep, goat, some kind of wild cow...
instead to give the chance for the full list of livestock. i will gonna delete that change and give opportinity to have something like bison and ducks ^^

Effectively, we should get 120 firewood and 30 wood. and they arent there.
I know what it is missing, a stockpile to receive those !!

Thanks you for your report ! thats a good one ! :)

i will allow the full list of the Livestock and i will put a stockpile down there.


----------

about shepherd versus farmer : i imagined shepherd are more like going in the wilderness and feed their herds with the grass in meadows... so i thought a cart would be better. while farmers they more have the same crops that doesnt move year after year at same place, and a very little barn was more appropriate

Some very minor things you maybe want to change. Not game breaking at all.


NMT Little houses have a red border while it not opening up a next toolbar.
To be consistent with the rest I would get rid of the red borders for those so players not think it will open up a next toolbar.
Buttons for multi floor houses are positioned level3 level1 level2 . Logical would be 1 2 3.


Like I said, very, very minor but should be very easy to fix in a next build :)

I didn't even think about that, or notice how many, but I think you're right. I did see two different colors of longhorns and goats. I didn't pay any attention to the count of each when I finally got two different types of animals, but thinking back I do believe there were 12 cows and 12 goats.

That said, now that you fixed it, I wonder if the fix was even necessary. Understanding how something works goes a long way to understanding it. LOL!

longhorns comes in 2 colors, the goats too in 2 colors. in the wilderness, bears too comes in 2 colors.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: Hawk on June 18, 2018, 08:57:15 AM
I realize that now. Each color is 1 livestock option, correct?
So for the Shepherd start, 2 livestock could be (or was) 6 white goats and 6 grey goats, or 6 spotted longhorns and 6 tan longhorns. Do I understand that right?

the game give you 2 livestocks of 6 each. some of these have 2 colors so 1 set of 6 can be 3-3 (3 grey 3 white)(or)(3 spotted,3 plain)
the RNG can give you 2 time the same selection like 2 times goats and nothing else. you would get 3-3 + another 3-3 which at the end would give you 6 white and 6 grey but thats all, and wont get another kind of animals since the game already gave you 2x goats livestock.

the color means nothing. some are female some are male,  the deer has some horns, some without horns.
goats some are grey some are white.


if i wanted, i could made the male cows black&white, and the female cows red&white but i prefered to make 2 different animals.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread

i moved the MaltHouse icon to the RK Resources toolbar.

i made bigger (2) the year/previous_year window of the BlackSmith for more names (4 now)

is just sad.

so i am doing those before Live.

sorry guys , i know i promised the Live for yesterday.
my bad


the church is going very slowly.... very slowly. i ve got to change my mind midway.. was in wood, now in stone...

The NMT 2.04 seems to have a category with excavations of the building and production. This church you're doing now is one of them. In RK Editor Choice there will be something similar or not, that it was possible to build a tent settlement with many different kinds of excavations.

If I might offer a suggestion: could you maybe make the lean-to pieces on the sides of the nave separate, buildable add-ons that would allow the church to serve more people?  They'd be sort of like chapels, each with their own cleric? 
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread

Good idea, Goblin Girl. I love it when you can upgrade a building to increase capacity - so much more realistic than tearing it down and totally rebuilding.

Separate doesn't have to be ghosted. It all depends on the size and shape of the ground footprint you give the main church. You could do something similar to what you did with your multi-storey houses. You could also give the add-ons a one tile ground footprint that sits outside the main church footprint, with the add-on building mesh sitting 3 or 4 tiles away from their ground tile. Then they could fit into position next to the church correctly but wouldn't need to be ghosted.

Of course, making them add-ons means more work for you, so it's understandable if you just want to make one building without add-ons.

This church looks very good.  :)  It would be nice to see a vicarage (house for cleric) in the same style. Any plans for a matching graveyard/deco crypts?
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on June 26, 2018, 04:07:11 PM
but the things is, knowing very well people, they will take the lean-to and they will place it everywhere without the main church and use it cheap even if it is 10-20 citizens.
i would maybe prefer to be build first without and then press the upgrade button and have it more citizens and full lean-tos.

i know too much what will do people with those ^^  :'(

and also at some point my original little church will comeback with a new lifting :)



about 2nd question, maybe later :)

Replacement base Church looks more and more exceptional. CC I looked beyond the texture base Church in F Key there are two textures, they will stay or not.
Can a small request about blacksmith tools in RK Editors Choice Edition.
I like the list of tools, but you can add a couple more to the list of tools for an earlier stage of the game. When do you need the tools and wait when the blacksmith would first make iron or copper for tools, takes too long for the Hard difficulty. You can make tools from iron or copper ore and wood to start after the stone tools.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread

mods. Some are big and some are small, but for now everything works perfect.
Would it be possible for you to implement in your RKchoice mod - your tailor, blacksmith and your other mods which also own the residence?
Just  a sugestion to consider.
Anyway amazing work. Thanks for sharing it.
     Regards  zak4862  :)

The church is looking great, Red!  I like the idea of an upgrade to add side chapels and increased capacity.

Post by: RedKetchup on June 29, 2018, 03:02:12 PM
so i finished all the fences/gates all around the pasture... screenshot.
i made the following changes to the vanilla pasture :
- now takes +1 fodder-thatch per tile (1 wood, 1 fodder). this change is made for more realistic cost since a pasture should require fodder over time but due game mechanic limitations, over time input cant be implemented. Fodder are anyways super easy to get and often we have an overstock on this.
- i allowing now up to 30x30 tiles maximum (which represent 75 goats lol)

gonna add a fenceless pasture which will only cost 1 fodder per tile (wood part is free) and allowing it to be build over small hills/low_mountains.

Greetings RedKetchup! :D
all your models like them very much. I have a question, do you remember my request to add a wooden "Apothecary" - I really liked this building - Medieval Apothecary from NMT 2.04. I am writing because such a building would be very useful at the beginning of the game - people would enter the building - it would increase the heart, regain strength and health -  there were shamans and herbalists who treated people. Is it now possible to add such a building to RK Ed? -. Please  :)

Greetings RedKetchup!
Thank you for the answer - I am testing RKECHRC1 and MM8
1. I have a question - when it comes to the subject of a goat and a cow? Is it possible to create a separate goat module and "Longhorn cow" - why? - I think that these two separate fashions can be applied to the African, Egyptian climate?
2. the question if you can do mod - Goast + meat processing as in CC
3 question. The division of the butcher into two categories - a butcher from farm animals and a butcher from wild animals - will be a better transparent list
If Troy adds foxes or hares, there will be no place on the list for the meat processing
4. question - can you add offal - in general [heart , etc.] to a butcher from wild animals?

Post by: brads3 on June 29, 2018, 07:33:46 PM
RED,if you really wanted to continually feed the pasture with fodder,it is possable. would have to be a a "building mod" instead though. similar idea that Necora did with his dairy barn,requires domestic animals to build but was fed grain.not sure how it would function with the different animals,however. i am content with either system.

it will come but later, i want to promote RK Ed so it becomes a Great & Popular mod first.

it will have some place, hare were already processed in beta but have been paused. and my foxes were only giving double fur, no food. as wolves.

@RedKetchup  :)summary . We have butchers:
Butcher Stalls CC - if @kralyerg would add a goat meat it would be great
Modular Stacked B.- Urban Butcher CC is Charki Chops [12 Charki] and Cheval Shank [12 Cheval]
Butcher - Make Cuts [Goat Meat] - RKECHRC1
Butcher Tent - is Make Roast [Partidge] - TC Main
The question is: how to improve the butcher so as not to load all mods? do you have any idea? Cheers! :D

@ Redketchup  :D thank you for answering - you are like lightning - I love RKECHRC1 and RKEd, I asked about giblets but I do not want to offer is just a trifle. Work quietly, I will not bother you with my ideas  Now, 5, 30 in the morning I go to sleep .Cheers!

Post by: RedKetchup on June 29, 2018, 09:01:09 PM
the thing with "Charki" is i never heard that name before, nobody in my country know what it is.
the " cuts [12 goat meat] " was how Troy did it in his code.

Offal (Organ meats like heart, liver, gizzard) is very high in protein. Might be nice to have that.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on June 30, 2018, 08:43:55 PM
i think there is already enough different meat resources already. sorry.

meanwhile i added a BS recipe to take 4 iron ore + 1 wood to make iron tools. but i didnt added the same for copper.
this has been made to help with tools in hard mode. Of course, it is less profitable  ;D

i added Flour [(CC) Rice] recipe to all the Windmills/Watermills/Canal_Watermills. i also fixed a but where all canal mills took 20 inputs instead of 16 as it was set in the other kind of mills.

Hi Redketchup. Can be a small request. Today I tried to activate a few of your old mods: Adriana's College v 1.0, Adriana's Library v 1.0 and Steph's Grain Silos v 2.0, and despite the first two mods do not conflict after I came back to banished I have Crash. The third in a small Conflict with CC, I was afraid to activate it. Can these three mods upgrade to version 1.0.7.
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: taniu on July 01, 2018, 04:02:33 PM
@RedKetchup. :Dback to the topic Butcher - I explain 1. lack of position in RKECH RC1- CHEVAL SHANK [12 Cheval] - horse breeding
2. lack of CHOPPER CHOPS position [12 Charki] - llamas breeding.
These items are included in CC mods - without CC mods, MM8, Modular Stacked Buildings CC - @kralyerg I can do nothing even though I have horse farms and llamas - there is no one who processes their meat.
Question is it possible that @ Kralyerg get codes for these items? and add to RK Ed? or maybe @ Kralyerg to send out a separate mod only to Butcher CC? just like "CC Milling" did. Secondly - how do I play with CC mods - there is Butcher but there is no position - Make Cuts [Goat Meat] - lack of GOAT - performed by Troy- moze Troy send codes for @kralyerg? to add this item - if @kralyerg will be willing to make such a mod .
I am begging you and please
Why do I ask for it because I like this editor "RK Editor Choice - Release Candidate 1 - FULL" and RK Editor Choice - Release Candidate 1 - LIGHT - everything is fantastic, music, plants, forest - now the forest looks real - noise trees, singing birds, the sounds of wild animals and, of course, converted buildings accordingly.
Thank you for this fantastic mod @RedKetchup, BlackLiquid, Troy and all the great modelers for the release of such a wonderful work - that's why I personally build a small village, not a big city.Regards :D
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on July 01, 2018, 04:21:29 PM
@taniu  i am very sorry. i cannot just start to add everything from CC !
at the end , every open menu will have half of the recipe [CC] in it :(

CC has a separate butcher for each type of animal. Makes "name of meat" cuts, Tallow and Bonemeal.
and i think building choice is good. if you need a specific item/recipe .. just build that one, and if you need another one, build the other one. and if you need both... build both !

i really dont want to add everything CC has and make it as overweight as it is.
i have my own projects @taniu  :)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: taniu on July 01, 2018, 04:57:16 PM
@RedKetchup  :)I'm explaining my idea because you will answer me , there are 2 mods, eg MM 8 - and RK Editor Choice - Release Candidate 1 - FULL - I checked these mods - they are great and all the things you want - but it's not like that - I personally I like small mods, because the game is better and I can manipulate them, and the game becomes more interesting, and secondly I hope that the new wonderful fashion will come out and it will be difficult to give up something, and then there is a great regret. I have an idea, but I'm afraid to write, - but I will try - I think o RK ED about Africa with African climate and music,. plants, palms, acacias, baobab, savanna -new animals:  antelope, gazelle, ostrich, crocodile - idea for Troy, because Egyptian buildings are prepared by you - they are beautiful - I know that I am an old marauder. You wrote that you might release a beta version later - this is the second idea. Greetings :)
Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: taniu on July 01, 2018, 06:07:45 PM
@ Redketchup :)I did not think about it exactly - you're right, but as a player I just wanted a tiny mod - goats and meat, because uploading all mods takes a lot of time, I know all modelers here have a design and vision , I'm just asking you - I do not want to upset you you would be angry with me - if I do not understand something and especially from the technical side of the mods, I am sorry. I had one more idea, but from your side there will be a negative response because you have already written that you will not add anything to the slaughterhouse - I mean and the quote "Giblets (meat of organs, heart, liver, stomach) is very rich in protein." @ Willows "- I thought to add Offal to the mod "I See Fire v1.0 for 1.07 -17.02.2017" and baked venison. If we have a real forest, hunters all over the world from Alaska to Africa, when they hunt they divide the animal into parts for meat, giblets, skin - why this idea - maybe this topic someone else  the moderators will undertake and form a small mod "Campfire"? Greetings :D :'(

That offal meat (hearts, liver, gizzard, etc.) is better suited to what Red said,

Red has the correct idea- use that gross stuff for sacrificial offerings, or as bait for fishing.

@ galensgranny.I am just a gamer playing this game for 4 years and I never get bored - fantastic mods are created thanks to the wonderful moderators of noble hearts. which make my life very pleasant and thank you very much for that. I respect the decisions @ Redketchup and I also agree with him - maybe it was not a good idea to have only one main butcher. Horses and llamas -
  appear in the mod Colonial Charter v 1.75, CC Stacked Shops and Homes, MM8 - there is a butcher who rework their meat. You do not need these mods to play as you want, it's just your decision. I just gave my ideas and did any of the moderators come to my ideas and create a new mod I will be very happy? .Greetings

Post by: galensgranny on July 02, 2018, 12:24:11 PM
@taniu , I was joking.  I think liver is disgusting in smell and taste, so when Red did not understand the English word "offal" and asked if it was a sacrificial offering, I thought that was the best thing to use liver for.  :D



Title: Re: Red's new Work In Progress thread
Post by: RedKetchup on July 02, 2018, 04:01:29 PM
I think meat are extremly ok like it is :)
i ll add horse meat / lhama meat if one day i have horse/lama in my mod. till then , i think it is still better to not add butcher recipe cause butcher isnt the only one. i have salted/dryed/smoked process too.

If people arent finding any bugs/errors in RC2 ... it will go live soon.

and then , i will start to make a new thread for showing/discussing the next future updates to my mods / work.
this topic has 92 pages now. it is time to close it.

Very well done!

Just maybe a greater variety of the wooden textures for the default houses/workplaces/barns might be nice.
The dark grey weathered wood, despite being realistic, makes the town look a little bit too sad. :)
And maybe grey stones, too.


Other than that, great work!

RED, did you set it the A&E to not allow nomads??? i have tried for days.thought i had a mod conflict,moved mods around.tried over and over.finally disabled the North,so i could use the DEbug. and narrowed it down. i get no nomads when using the A&E start. got nomads quick running medium start.

oh maybe i didnt specifically put a minimum of 0 citizens... and did let as it was in vanilla with a min of 8!


lets see...

ImmigrationDescription immigration
{
   ComponentDescription _nomad = "Template/Nomad.rsc";

   int _requiredPopulation = 8;
   ComponentDescription _requiredStructures
   [
      "Template/TradingPost.rsc"

yup as it was in vanilla.... but without the market requirement.

for the town hall.

the mini th and kid have maybe been specifically made to trigger at 0 pop !
each building control its own nomads, nomads arent cross the board rule, every building control it.

i ve put 0 at my townhall... but you will only get it at 1.1 or 2.0 :)

Post by: brads3 on July 06, 2018, 06:12:13 PM
NO sir.i am using the old CC NF version. did it so the fort parts would work. in the process since the CC has its own toolbars.it fixed that.now the main buildings load via the CC toolbar but are RK textured.and the NORTH buildings load also. the North buildings aren't lableled when you scroll over their icons or their menus after building them.

   i cleaned the registry before the next map. my hope was to stop the CC from loading so much and get the North to load its climate and the happiness changes TOM made. i can't load the north above the RK cause i will get the darker terrain of the RK.it is a give and take. way i have the mod order set,i can play with A&E and get your animals and terrain starts. with KID's well, nomads would be every year to increase the population.
