0.11.0
Death choices can now be edited in game, configuration is much harder to break, and two settings that
were documented but did nothing now work. Existing DeathChoices.yaml files load unchanged.
In-game editor
- New "Mod Config" button at the bottom right of the main menu and the pause menu opens a death choice
editor: edit every setting of every level, add levels, copy them, rename them and delete them,
including the resource, skill and loot modifier tables and their prefab lists.
- The button is shared with any other mod that supports it, so several mods do not each add their own.
If more than one is installed, clicking it lets you pick which mod to configure.
- Only shown to the host or a server admin. A server admin playing on a dedicated server can edit and
send changes to the server, which checks them before accepting and then pushes them to everyone.
- Nothing is saved until you press Apply, and a change that fails its checks leaves the panel open with
your edits intact rather than half-saving.
- Renaming a level warns you first: players store the level name on their character.
Configuration
- DeathChoices.yaml is now written with full documentation of every setting at the top of the file.
- A typo no longer discards your entire configuration. An unrecognised setting or a misspelled value
is reported in the log with its line number and skipped; everything else still loads. A file that
cannot be parsed at all leaves the last working configuration in place and your file untouched.
- A misspelled value now lists every valid option in the log.
- Removing or renaming a death level now warns which players will be moved and where to.
- Bad prefab names, duplicate prefabs across entries, a DefaultDeathChoice that does not exist, and
suspect skill loss ranges are all reported at load time.
- New 'Fallback: true' setting marks which level players move to when their choice disappears.
Previously this was whichever level happened to be first in the file, so reordering changed it.
- Config files are watched by polling rather than the OS watcher, so one save is one reload.
- New Config Poll Interval and Config Apply Delay settings control how quickly edits are picked up.
Fixes
- Turning a setting OFF is no longer silently lost. Any 'false' you wrote for FoodLossOnDeath,
SkillLossOnDeath, FoodLossUsesDeathlink or EnableItemSavingChoices was being dropped whenever the
file was rewritten and reverted to on.
- Clients now store the server's configuration exactly as sent instead of a lossy re-save, which also
stops the config file header being wiped on connect.
- Fixed a crash on every harvest if one level listed the same prefab in two ResourceModifiers
entries, and the same crash on kills for duplicate DeathLootModifiers prefabs.
Behaviour changes
- DeathSkillRate now works. It was documented as "rate at which Deathlink skill increases" but was
never read. If you set it above 1, Deathlink skill will now climb faster than it did.
- SkillInfluence now works, and now defaults to OFF. It was documented as "whether Deathlink skill
will influence this bonus" but was never read, so bonuses always applied in full. With it off you
keep exactly that behaviour; turn it on to scale a bonus in with Deathlink skill instead, from
nothing at 0% to the full amount at 100%.
Older versions wrote "skillInfluence: true" into every modifier whether you asked for it or not, so
your existing file almost certainly has it set everywhere. Deathlink clears those once, the first
time it loads your file, and says so in the log -- your bonuses keep working exactly as they did.
Turn it back on for any bonus you actually want to scale with skill; that choice is kept.
- 'bonusModifer' is now spelled 'BonusModifier'. The old spelling is still read, so existing files
keep working, but files written by this version use the corrected name.
- Newly written config files use PascalCase names. Settings are read without regard to case, so
older files are unaffected.
- Clients and servers must both be on 0.11.0; the config sync format changed.
