[SPOILERS] Urban Development

I am so psyched to see this. Thank you so much for everything you do acidia.

(That is: The Necropolis, the mall, the refugee center and all the quests, prisons, office towers, schools, the new national guard camp and way more. Acidia freaking rules.)

RipRoarinBoogerPenis · 2017-07-31T22:15:03.000Z

I just found the huge camp myself, wasn’t able to break in unfortunately

NuG · 2017-08-01T21:53:33.000Z

Was just browsing around and saw this, Awesome Stuff!

Garfink · 2017-08-03T04:26:04.000Z

OMG, no more holding up just in a church or mansion! Damn great work.

I vote for making an in-game acidia bronze statue.

these statues should be put to center of all the multi-overmap buildings

Is this a mod or main game content?

acidia · 2017-08-04T08:43:16.000Z

Eventual main game content is the best way to explain it. No reason to build the code infastructure for cities if there aren’t going to be enough buildings to make use of it. Can’t drop everything in one update because it would be too much to sort through all at once. The building portion can be tested easily enough as a mod.

TheKobold · 2017-08-04T15:39:53.000Z

Cool, the way cities are set up has been on of the most immersion breaking aspects of the game for me, I can’t wait to see more sensible cities.

Like where is the infrastructure, side walks, fire hydrants, lamp posts, more than two lane roads, highways, etc.

I love the buildings though they look great. Can’t wait to see them in game.

That line one error that is getting int he way of adding the mod is absolutely mystifying to me, being 100% unfamiliar with whatever linting is. I know it’s getting in the way, and that it’s only in the modinfo.json. So. If I got my hands on the files, and stuffed them in the appropriate places in the main json folder… Would that work? (I’m still trying to find out how to grab them without copy/pasting from github and manually removing thousands of +'s)

One can download raw files from the github:

So I see this is now in the launcher, and am excited to test it out. Will this work alongside the Extra Buildings modpack, or would I need to disable that one when enabling this

acidia · 2017-08-25T12:53:50.000Z

Give it a shot, because the entire pack of 50 buildings exceeds the max number of allowed specials I sent all of the build occurances to a min of 1. If the other packs have a min occurances for the building as 0, Then those might be dropped. You’ll see a debug msg at world creation letting you know of this is happening. Shouldn’t though since only 10/50 buildings have been merged.

OK yeah I did actually add them both to my current run earlier, and did not get any errors. I haven’t traveled very far from the EVAC shelter yet to explore much yet though.

Thanks!

It’s been a while since I’ve contributed, and while I’m a mediocre coder, let me know if you want any help with boring JSON bits or anything. This looks awesome!

TheFlame52 · 2017-08-27T13:50:11.000Z

This is damn good, I’ll install this mod next time I make a new world.

RedPine · 2017-09-12T13:10:52.000Z

I don’t like the top half of Police 31. Far too many angles, very maze like, doesn’t feel as square as the other buildings in the game. Especially the interrogation cell (?) smack in the middle of the top half of the building - that makes things feel very cramped and awkward.

I know it’s probably a very realistic layout based on a real building, but real buildings don’t always translate 1x1 into cdda very well. Other than that, I can’t think of anything else to nitpick.

acidia · 2017-10-03T06:17:21.000Z

Pushed the pr with the police station yesterday, let me know if you still don’t like it. Much of it is intentionally convoluted on the first floor but there are essentially two air locks to separate the jail from the offices. Evidence is 2nd floor north, crime lab is 3rd center, and armory is hiddened -1 south east.

It shouldn’t be the max occurrences that limit anything. The debug message should only happen if you set the minimum occurrences above the number that can actually, physically happen in game.

This is fantastic work, loving the variation and new buildings.
