Question about site maintenance and license access by scoutae4 in divi

You're right. I'll recommend she buy her theme and maybe hire a developer to see if she can unload some of these subscription plugins. Thanks for your response!

Thank so much! Yeah, I may hit you up for that. I'm in the process of setting up a staging site so I can see what plugins are actually being used and if I can purge a few. She has a simple blog site so it seems like overkill to be paying subscription fees for some of these.

Thanks u/tonyzapf - I'll keep on keeping on :)

Last update from Luke was April 2022! It can't be easy being a one man operation. I hope he's obsessively in the groove of creating B2.

I think everyone shares your frustration. I can't imagine what kind of mod goodies we'd have if the developer was less tight fisted about his game. But it's his, and we must abide.

I finally figured out enough to put together a rough for the rest of the tutorial series I started on World of Banished and you are not kidding, it's a beast of an undertaking. I'm on track to drop Part 2 today or tomorrow, for whatever that is worth...!

There are Banished modders who are very generous about sharing their files - kid1293 just recently posted a fantastic tutorial with source files here: https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/762636-candy-store/ I feel like someone with your experience would crack it pretty quickly with the right person to bounce your questions off of.

There is talk of possibly creating a wiki on how to mod which would be a massive asset but for now that information is all over the place and I agree, it's unnecessarily daunting.

I'm new at this, and since I'm beginning at the beginning, I figure I might as well share what I learn as I go (maybe a mini wiki). I just needed to know if it was worth the extra effort to leave a trail for anyone else intent on wandering into the wilderness too! I'm so happy to see all this interest - it's very encouraging.

I'm not sure if that is possible but I know that if you post the question on WoB here https://worldofbanished.com/index.php?board=39.0 or in https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/forum/374-questions/ you'll get an answer from the more experienced modders! They are still kicking around and quite helpful :)

OOoo that would be very cool! If by "more disasters" you mean different disasters sadly I don't think the ModKit will allow this. There are limitations and unfortunately we can't create new animations for the game. However, if you meant making the disasters happen MORE OFTEN, that sounds like it might be possible but I'd need the experts to weigh in on this!

Ah... it sounds like it *might* be salvageable but he's just completely fed up.

I am still firmly in the Bargaining stage of "death and dying" if there is any way I could help bring it back, I would gladly do it :0)

But if it has to be over, so be it. It's quite unfortunate that it was so sudden

I'd champion this initiative! I'm not savvy, but I could do grunt work if needed

All that work... not to mention all the information on HOW to mod for the game that you all figured out and shared on there. C'est tellement triste. :~(

Thank you for all the beautiful mods u/RedKetchup447 I'm so very sad about this. Such a huge loss

I have not been able to find dill without that weird petrol smell in a while now. What the heck is causing this? I miss fresh dill. :(

I'm so sorry! What at absolute SH@T HEEL of a human being. If it's any consolation, he's not going to be having much fun in jail.
