Ganeshakw Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Guys, what is SCore ? Is it like something advance tech for 7dtd or the entire gaming industry ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swmeek Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) For 7dtd only and if you want the extra npc's and/or monsters in the addon packs you need it and npcore for that . It's also needed for a few other mods. Edited October 4, 2022 by swmeek (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redarmy45 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) Its great to return after months away and see all the changes to the NPC mod. Thanks to all of you who have not only continued work on it,but made it moons better. Had a few tests last night and was hugely impressed. I like a few others also feel like the NPCs spawn too often,and changing the spawn probability in the group enteties xml for each NPC seemed like a days work,lol,i just removed group entetites xml entirely and spawn in a few NPCs to accompany me. Though i spent the time to tweak the bandits as i do ant them in the world roaming. your doing the lords work guys. edit: question, long time since i edited the files. But with Harley - Bat, i turned her to whiteriver faction,its fine,she wont attack me but iv no way to access dialogue with her. is there a way to fix that? Also wjile im here,how do i edit specific NPCs to have specific weapons. alot of the auto weapons are very powerful on standard settings Edited October 5, 2022 by Redarmy45 (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers i also left weapons untouched. I had some feedback about a particular NPC from a sub mod if this is correct place to mention it. The i believe,"survivor" npc sub mod,has a female tattoo girl , named Tgurl,i believe,she seems to always get stuck on the envoirnment,edges of stair cases etc,seems unique to here,frequent enough that i changed her for another NPC. And a question/ feature request... would it ever be possible to enable the NPC to clear a POI? Such as "patrol here" but limit its radius to 10% of the size so they potentially enter POI rooms? would be nice to have a team of NPCs randomly clearing out a POI with me..currently i just "nudge" them into a room before i enter.. Good old Baker axe man takes it for the team superbly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xyth Posted October 10, 2022 Author Share Posted October 10, 2022 New features in the A20 version are unlikely. The team is mostly on break from developing the core, as A21 NPC will have new code that we can rebaseline around. Hopefully this will allow us to focus on enhanced functionality beyond the vanilla bandits, perhaps we can expand the abilities of "friendly" NPCs as Bandits will likely be better than the current NPC bandits in the core.

MandyCMoore Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Hi, guys! looking for some advice. Been playing with this mod for a few years now, & I used to be able to edit certain aspects of the NPCs, but now, whenever I try to edit what they accept for hire, the game throws errors & the mod won't work. For example, I want to change some to accept boiled eggs & others to accept grilled meat, but it causes issues when I try. Wondering what I am doing wrong. Will appreciate any & all tips to try. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds sweet. seems the only reason i have to update this game anymore is because the features this mod will bring. Its nice to know the possibilities can potentially expand. Currently ,iv sunk 20 hours into the NPC mods,last time i used it it was creatures pack and npc mod,all the changes have been great,especially the "stop,mode,help" , really cool.

Thanks! Please share what property you have added that is being rejected. In the NMM mod, Darkstardragon wanted some of the special characters to be hired using custom weapons/items and used: <property name="HireCurrency" value="SkullSword" /> <property name="HireCost" value="1" /> These match the item in the mod and hiring is successful with that Skull Sword.

For me a lot of them get caught on stuff like trees and cars , it's just a bug that hopefully get fixed . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just coming in to edit my post & let y'all know I had figured it out. Lol. Thanks though! It was a silly mistake on my end. There is one thing I can't figure out though. The friendly NPCs are moving very slow when they are just walking, however, once in combat they move normally. So, it isn't really affecting gameplay, just looks a little strange, & for the life of me, I can't figure out what slowed them down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MandyCMoore Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 @xyth@sphereii@Darkstardragon@arramus@GanTheGrey@khzmusik@stallionsden May I have permission to use your NPCs/mods in a pack I am working on? I originally put it together for myself & my husband, but people who have been watching us play it have been asking for it so thought I would tweak it a little, add a list to credit everyone properly, & put it out. It will be called CMS World Restoration, & the whole point is to restore the world, build settlements, & add back in some of the best parts of A16. I just want everyone's permission before I include their work in it. Thanks! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redarmy45 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Had 3 nstances over a few hours of NPCs who were following me dissapearing. One time it was when i open a double door barn,another i think it was when i knocked a tree down(in previous versions i had often seen npc's die when knocking a tree down with them following me) the other time im unsure of but positive a zed didnt kill him or anything else. The NPCs where baker axe,soldier4 smg from the sub modlet,if that matters but proably not. Im on single player,up to date,no other mods. Iv tripled my zed population through 7DTD xml. Not sure if its known issue or has been reported,nand im unable to reproduce it unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyBorian Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 I'm confused. I can manually spawn in the NPCs, but they do not spawn naturally. I have the two main files installed in my mods folder. Anything in particular I can check to research this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MandyCMoore Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Quick question, to stop the NPCs from opening doors, would I need to make some sort of adjustment in the SCore utilityai? Dang raiders keep waltzing in. Lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe someone can confirm but in my tests that seemed to work 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swmeek Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 I had to start locking my doors too as the npc's were walking in unannounced too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
