Smarter Shadows

Hello, I was trying out the mod, but sadly it does not work as of now. Would love to see it fixed. One suggestion would be to add ferns to the filter. Mainly when collecting light bulbs from surface fuelweaver the ferns get in the way. Thank you!

you still keep updating the mod after years, massive respect!

I think at this point the mod is now mostly usable. I still need to add some better target filtration to avoid mining some special objects like marble status or mushtrees.

Well :) I have tested the update for a day and everything works so far. I will be publishing it tomorrow.

Dude, it doesn’t matter how much your mod update will take. I am ready to wait for the update even an eternity.

[h1] Development Update [/h1]

As I am not using Lua apart from this mod and I didn't maintain it in a while, it took me some time to re-learn what DST does in regards to Maxwell's shadows and how I modified their behavior before the update. I am documenting it for the future so that it will be easier to maintain. Lesson learned.

As you know, instead of 3 types of shadow workers DST now has only 1 type but it does all types of work. The logic is not that different and there might be some functionality to ignore certain objects MIGHT BE baked in since the new update.

In that regard, the quickest change would be to copy the node and re-add the ignoring functionality the same way I did it before. In later iterations I will try patching relevant behaviors during the runtime to avoid having to update my mod every time the default behavior has some minor changes.

Shan't take too long!

OMG, Thx!

Okay, I am working on it.
