Playlist Mod

Description
Playlist Mod
This mod lets you manage all the music from various sources in your game. It gives a playlist interface and playback controls with some simple mod options as well. I actually created this mod originally for 1.4 and was using it locally and privately for over a year now, but I've updated it to 1.5+ now and decided to release it. I hope you enjoy!

Features
  • Playback widget that you can move around
  • Playlist that lets you manage songs from all sources, including mods that add music
  • Rename and set volume for individual songs
  • Set play conditions for individual songs
  • Disable songs from playing entirely in case you don't like songs that other mods add
  • Configure song playback interval in the settings
  • Hide the widget using the icon in the bottom right
  • Change the widget's background opacity in the settings
  • Lock the playlist widget in place, allowing you to click on things that overlap it

Compatibility
This mod hasn't been tested with Music Expanded Framework*, but they will likely conflict since this mod forces playback of songs and changes how often songs play. Having that said, this mod will work with all music that is loaded into RimWorld via SongDefs, so other mods that add music will work with it.

*Users have reported incompatibilities with the Music Expanded Framework, but it mostly works with it.

It should be obvious, but don't use this with Music Manager either. They do similar things.

Custom Music?
I'm so happy you asked. Alongside this, I built a tool that lets you add custom music to your game by generating a mod that you can manually add to your mods folder. Check it out on my Bitbucket here: RimWorld Custom Music Mod Generator[bitbucket.org].

Just go to the Downloads section on the left and download the .exe. Usage is as simple as putting your songs in a specific folder and then running the application. It converts all the songs to .ogg and generates a full local mod for you to install, giving you custom music in RimWorld!

Bug Reports
I have over 350 mods that I run my game with and never had any problems, but please report any bugs you find to the Issues sections on the BitBucket repos. See below:

BitBucket:
Custom Music Mod Generator[bitbucket.org]
Playlist Mod[bitbucket.org]

Updates
Note: Any updates only apply to the 1.5+ versions as the 1.4 version is an old assembly that I can't update anymore because the codebase has been updated for 1.5+.

Please see the Change Notes tab for update details.

Gotcha, I'll look into implementing it again. I'd also like that feature to be in place. Maybe 1.6 changed something since its version of Unity updated. I'll keep you posted here.

@Aleksey I can't check right away as Music Manager doesn't have a picture of this on its workshop page. But as I remember, Music manager does have this feature and it works. I just don't use it, because I prefer the UI of Playlist.

That's because setting a song's time does not work in RimWorld/Unity. I actually have the feature there, but it's commented out because setting AudioSource.time just doesn't work properly. I've tried using samples instead and I get the same result. Basically, what happens is that you can seek the song and bar moves where it should, but the song's timestamp isn't updated correctly. It seeks to somewhere at the start of the song, regardless of where you chose to seek to. Very annoying and I've not figured out a fix for it.

Curious, does Music Manager let you do it? Does it work properly?

I like this one a lot more than music manager by fluffy. The UI and song list looks way better. There is only one thing that bothers me, why can I not go to a specific part on the song, like song is 2:40 min long and I can't got to the 1 min mark or so. I can only start a song at 0:00 and then play it from there. Why can't I click on the white progress bar and jump to the respective section? If that feature is not going to get added. Can we at least get a speed up option? Like playing the song faster or jumping a configgurable time (10 sec default) forward or backwards on the track.

Important: I'm changing the way I accept bug reports now, in order to add more structure to them. Now, we'll be using the Issue Tracker on BitBucket for each of the repos. Check the mod description or Bug Reports thread for links.

I've recompiled the mod for 1.6 now that it's official. There was a bug opening the mod settings window before that should be fixed now.
Aleksey  [author] 28 Jun @ 11:45am 
The mod has been updated for 1.6 now.
