- UPCOMING stuff I've been working on --
RPO COLLECTION 3rd Gen
I'm still testing this update as it is a lot of background changes. Not very many player-facing changes.Here are the main changes:
- String table independence: each RPO mod package file now carries its own text (before, ALL text of all RPO mods was held in the Core package). Text that is shared between several RPO mods remains in Core.
o This simplifies the process of selective translation: if someone wishes to translate only one RPO Mod + Core, they can now do so. Before, a translator interested in translating any RPO mod would’ve had to translate the entire collection.
- Changes to auto-assignment logic: to better accommodate players who might have started out with only one or two RPO mods and then added more, or started out with certain settings off then on, I re-built the auto-assign processes so the ones which weren’t so great at applying independently can now better do so.
Tweaks And fixes
A little addition to M19's " visual lovers" and " light off lovers": they are not aware of lighting conditions where they woohoo and react accordingly
- Versioning changes: due to the inter-connections between RPO mods, paired with their ability for independence, handling versioning for this project has always been a bit of a “only bad choices are available” deal. It’s still the case, but the latest approach will make it easier both for me to manage re-upload time and for the mods to inform you if incompatible versions of individual elements end up installed together. It should also be clearer to work with for mod support staffs.
TOOLBOX
Versioning changes: To be clearer to everyone, I am now increasing the version number of this mod by 1 every single time I make a change to the file.
Other background / system changes
OTHER UPCOMING STUFF
Still sitting on some stuff I've made regarding mod status checking / mod hound.
That's it for today! :)
