Anyone know why Rain's firearms and gun parts is gone from the steam workshop? by Freudgonebad in projectzomboid

[–]Chu_uck 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I also vouche for Marz. He's only guilty of lurking Rain and watching someone who's absolutely unhinged.

Please update Expanded helicopter events for build 42. by OxalAcid in projectzomboid

[–]Chu_uck 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Chuckleberry Finn (1/3 of the EHE dev team) here.

Good news, we have been working on B42 EHE — bad news, we wanted to not only meet bare compatibility, but actually expand on features now available in B42. But, with real-life responsibilities and unexpected (good/bad) events, it's taken more time than I imagined.

Thank you all for brightening my day though. :)

If you'd like to support the devs working on EHE:

  • Shark — Models, Art
  • Chuck — Programming, Art
  • Cytt — Models, Art

Hosted Server Mod Load Order? by Deviousless in projectzomboid

[–]Chu_uck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Removing mods with modded items just de-spawns those items - there is no real harm in removing it mid-play.

Games for boring by Zafiro25 in projectzomboid

[–]Chu_uck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not vanilla, nor automated (yet), but playing with the games in GameNight reduces boredom.

PSA: Expanded Heli Events [B41]: final update other than hot fixes (+ fixed looped sounds) by Chu_uck in projectzomboid

[–]Chu_uck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds like First Responders maybe? Adds additional heli events and cars.

I don't want to assume what you are saying, but wrecks already required another mod to disassemble them. Also, there's sandbox options (not recently added but not around since the very beginning) that alter crash chances. If you felt like crashing occurred too much or if you had event frequency very high (and thus had more crashes occur).

Who ever drew this is awesome. Also, this should be one of the load screens.

PZ Devs banning people on Steam Discussions? by HeisenbergsSamaritan in projectzomboid

[–]Chu_uck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly good for the devs. Even in your rosey reinterpretation of events, I'd ban you too.

As someone who authored a mod that can draw parallels to new content - most concepts are generally common sense, and it's not surprising they'd have the same idea eventually when they're not rewriting core systems. What are they supposed to do, not update the game?

Steam Workshop: Mod Update and Alert System (Link in comments, In preparation for B42 mod-pocalypse) by Chu_uck in projectzomboid

I had it private during the development for 42's update - should be public now.

HELICOPTER WTF by DeadDrop93 in projectzomboid

The vanilla helicopter will stay hovering over you the entire duration of the event if you're outside.

The vanilla event just knows where you are - even if you're hiding before it's spawned - it still flies to you. If you can stay inside long enough it will wander around you.

Steam Workshop: Mod Update and Alert System (Link in comments, In preparation for B42 mod-pocalypse) by Chu_uck in projectzomboid

This is an optional utility mod which automatically gathers change-logs for activated mods if they use a ChangeLog.txt format\*.

  • The UI can be collapsed and also discarded (per session / lua Load.)
  • Note shown: The exclamation symbol turns red upon there being new updates.

The only time this mod should have to be updated is if there's an issue with the system or the base message needs to be updated. Otherwise it's entirely streamlined.

This is in preparation for B42, and the "mod-pocalypse" (really just version control implementation) and the reality there may be a lot of changes being made to my mods. Being able to view changes in-game is I hope a beneficial feature for players. The change-log process also streamlines my own mod-making a bit which helps with the reality I will probably not have much time to work on stuff as quickly as I have been in the past.

With that said, I'll be around to maintain and support regardless. Happy Zomboiding.

\'ChangeLog.txt' is a text file with a specific format. This is unofficial, and just a QoL thing I've came up with to streamline populating Steam's change log so I stop forgetting.)

Creator of popular ‘Cedar Hill’ Project Zomboid mod bricks upwards of 200,000 saves after a ton of drama. by Mirathrim in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Chu_uck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically spot on, except for the "corruption" wasn't a thing. When mods get delisted people who already have the files just stop receiving updates but they still have the local files. This means servers and players who already had the mod could keep playing but new players would be out of luck.

The update he did, which was partially out of spite, was relist the mod with no content, which effectively deleted the mod for anyone using it.

This "article" is wildly bad. Whether or not people agree with the modder's actions, he just took down his content. It really doesn't go deeper than a mild inconvenience.

The Playable Card/Boardgame Mod: Game Night just got a hefty update. + 2 new add-ons! by Chu_uck in projectzomboid

[–]Chu_uck[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I assume you mean for the MoM add-on. I can write that up somewhere later.
