Clockwork Orange Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 Boah, Clockwork I HATE you - for the hourly updates, lots of work to do :-P - thanks for this Since Valmar takes a break me and my admin team decided to fire up the Clockwork Project to our server. Still testing on our test server - but if it's what we want, we will bring it live on weekend. Loool, yeah I think I am done balancing the skills and everything, so there should not be any more updates for a while now. Hope you guys find it to your liking!

Clockwork Orange Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 Are you going to be adding quests to your mod? Yeah they are next on the list but I am sort of waiting for them to be pushed properly, maybe I will get started on doing some here soon and not worry about them being pushed...

Brian9824 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 So the books like archery just add xp to appropriate skill right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork Orange Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 So the books like archery just add xp to appropriate skill right? Yup, and it takes 4 books to level the particular skill up by one level. Chemistry for dummies for eg will level up your science skill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DnaJur Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Yup, and it takes 4 books to level the particular skill up by one level. Chemistry for dummies for eg will level up your science skill Have you thought about maybe making books drop less but instead raise skill by 1 point? I think that would make it more rewarding and intuitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork Orange Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 Have you thought about maybe making books drop less but instead raise skill by 1 point? I think that would make it more rewarding and intuitive. There is no good way to do that, I could make it so that books drop less by increasing the majority probability for paper, so you would get paper, paper, paper, book, nothing, paper, paper paper, nothing, paper, book. etc. but I think id rather leave it the way it currently is TBH. Personally I am more concerned about balancing how to get glue or a beaker atm since i think it is a bit to RNG for getting the workbench up and running. The problem is I dont want glue to take over too much of the majority loot drop from junk and I want to leave the beaker as un-craftable so that it is a nice item to find and also dont want to increase the beaker chance for dropping so you can see my dilemma.

For glue you can create resin glue powder bucket item and add it to working stiff loot. When crafted with bucket of water it could give you something like 20 units of glue.

When crafted with bucket of water it could give you something like 20 units of glue. I think I have a better solution to both what you suggested about making books drop less and also with being able to get glue a bit easier. - - - Updated - - - Update (3/31/16) +Loot Increased glue drop amount in junk lootgroup from 1,3 to 2,6 Changed purse will no longer drop books instead will drop junk in its place Changed lockers will no longer drop books instead will drop junk in its place Changed file cabinets will no longer drop books and will drop junk in its place +Recipes Added recipe for grafting glue from 3 duct tape +Blocks Fixed improper group labels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking about it yeah, atm I am working on quests but I will think about making some variations I may just ask Valmar If I can use his variations. But I did reduce the HP of feral zombies from 2800 Hp to 1800 HP since I just felt they were needlessly to high and just bullet sponges so I could revert their hp back to vanilla... but I also buffed the feral to have an added chance to break your leg when struck as well.

Even with headshots they were bullet sponges? Im sure valmod would love to pass on his stuff with him taking a break or whatever makes him happy.

Clockwork Orange Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 Update (4/1/16) +Quests 26 new quests added Changed starting quests to reflect the mod, for eg the quest to craft a stone axe now properly states you need to craft cordage. Changed quests to no longer have to be followed in a specific order to complete them. Quests now give large Exp gains to facilitate gaining skill points through leveling up I will not list all of the quests since they will get unlocked as you progress automatically. Cheers! +Items Barbed_wire: Gave it a proper ingredient time Removed all old preview code that no longer does anything IMPORTANT: Unfortunately you have to start a new game in order to experience the quests since they all start with the first quest chain of crafting a stone axe.

Clockwork Orange Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 Update (4/1/16) +Loot Reduced the chance of canned food to drop from fat zombie loot group to 0.05 from 0.15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puschpa Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Just started new with the latest update, doing the starter quests. When coming to bow crafting, I gathered the ressources, and even if I have not yet crafted a Cordage for the bow, it is shown in green in the quest log. Maybe this is because I crafted Cordage before for the Stone Axe and the Clothes? I also have no Cordage in inventory, the bow recipe is shown greyed out due to this, this could confuse players. Edit: Forge quest requires to craft 5 Bellows, shouldn't it be one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Forge quest requires to craft 5 Bellows, shouldn't it be one? Fixed the forge quest, and I think the reason why it is showing that you completed the cordage portion is because I am unlokcing all quests so you dont have to complete them in a certain order and completing the gathering of something for one quest will complete it for all quests that are unlocked. Since I want to keep the quests unlocked the way they are I might have to remove the individual material portions from the quest objectives if they overlap if that makes any sense. I will figure something out, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolverine576 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Finished the putting on the fiber cloths part, no quest activated after. but when i made a campfire, and placed it on the ground, i got a quest completed sound, and onscreen message, but no quest was visible on my screen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all quests will award you with a new quest, for eg after wearing the different clothing and armor set quests all you will get is experience for actually wearing them after you craft them that is all.

What about having a more basic workbench for wood items only and make it easier to craft then the current work station? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork Orange Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 Update (4/2/16) +Quests Changed craft objectives to gather objectives, basically all this does is makes it so that it will show you have an objective completed only if your inventory currently has the required items for that objective, if you use those objective items for crafting a quest objective item it will no longer show as a completed quest objective for other quests until you have the items in your inventory again. I hope that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork Orange Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 What about having a more basic workbench for wood items only and make it easier to craft then the current work station? I dont really want to add a different workbench I already have a misc crafting work bench for aesthetic blocks that I wtillh ave to add more recipes for as it is. But i have already came up with a good solution and the workbench is now exactly how I want it to be in terms of how difficult it is to craft. I decreased honey poultice loot chance which allows the beaker to show up about as often as it did before, I added junk loot to purses file cabinets, and lockers to help get more possible glue drops as well as duct tape, I also made a new recipe for crafting glue from duct tape and I just added duct tape to one of the harvested resources of the last stage of cars so once you have some wrenches you can easily take apart cars to get duct tape to craft glue. - - - Updated - - - Update (4/2/16) +Blocks Added duct tape to harvested resources of the last stage of cars, so now there is a guaranteed way to get glue from harvesting cars and gathering duct tape and crafting it into glue.

wolverine576 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Stated as new player with this mod. Is there no craftable containers? Only thing i can figure out is i have to make them using nails, which requires a nail mold, which the mold requires nails, that means i have yo go out and scavenge for nails. Am i right?
