Does this mod work?
Vas 12 Dec, 2020 @ 10:23pm 
Its just not working is all, I even added priority to move the mod's priority to load last. It just, didn't seem to alter anything when I made my version is all.

I don't remember how to do it properly. That, and there's not enough information anyway "it's failing" is not helpful. Like crashing on startup? Doing nothing?

Chances are it is working, but another mod is loading after it and overriding it. That's my only guess.

Alright, cause I'd really like to have hardcore drop everything except the stuff in my hotbar, and my clothing and skin slots. It gets annoying reassigning those slots back to those items when I go pick my shit up again.

Unless you know of a mod that saves these slots.

I can deal with it later, im outta the house
Xan  [author] 10 Dec, 2020 @ 6:40pm 
idk. I havent done sb modding in a fat minute, and its convoluted af (thats why I stopped).
Vas 10 Dec, 2020 @ 6:01pm 
Pff. Can't format in comments. Anyway. The goal was to replace the hardcore drop mode with the Survival array, or rather to stop dropping clothing, armor, and weapons. (Simply because the fact that you can't restore the item positions when you go back and pick your shit up again)

And I figured I'd increase the pixel loss to 75% too. However, its just not working, I dunno why.

Heya, I was trying to make an adjustment that drops only specific item types. I wondered if you could help with that. Here's the attempt I did with modding it in but it seems to be failing.

[code][
{
"op": "replace",
"path": "/hardcore",
"value": {"deathDropItemTypes" : [
"generic",
"liquid",
"material",
"consumable"
]
}
},
{
"op" : "replace",
"path" : "/hardcore/reviveCostPercentile",
"value" : 0.75
}
][/code]

alright
Xan  [author] 30 Nov, 2020 @ 12:38pm 
All joking aside, playermodes.config is simply a set of values. all have a key called "deathDropItemTypes". For casual, that's set to "none", for survival, it's set to ["generic", "liquid", "material", "consumable"], and for hardcore it's set to "all".

They also have a key called "permadeath", which is false for casual/survival and true for hardcore. Basically, it is possible for a different mod to come in and disable permadeath, thus giving this mod a use for hardcore mode

just live when you die 4head

PentaSquares 30 Nov, 2020 @ 11:31am 
but how do you know? You can't go back to check?
Xan  [author] 30 Nov, 2020 @ 1:28am 
lol


but yeah it works in hardcore
Xan  [author] 30 Nov, 2020 @ 1:28am 
PentaSquares 29 Nov, 2020 @ 5:46pm 
but how? You literally do not respawn in Hardcore mode.
Xan  [author] 28 Nov, 2020 @ 10:00pm 
PentaSquares 28 Nov, 2020 @ 6:27pm

kelter 28 Jun, 2020 @ 8:03am

StarXStone 23 May, 2020 @ 7:41pm 
You beat me to it
Xan  [author] 23 May, 2020 @ 6:06pm 
Yes, it works on FU.
StarXStone 23 May, 2020 @ 1:59pm 
I am testing if it works on FU. . .
Mark 10 Nov, 2019 @ 3:50pm 
you should add a picture for this so it can attract some more attention
Xan  [author] 25 Aug, 2019 @ 12:34pm 
Yes
The MechE 25 Aug, 2019 @ 12:13pm 
Does it work with Frackin Universe?
MiloTheWulf 2 Aug, 2019 @ 10:31pm 
that is exactly what i was looking for thank you.
Xan  [author] 1 Aug, 2019 @ 7:56pm 
If you mean to ask what it does under the hood, it patches player.config so that drop inventory is false on all gamemodes.
Xan  [author] 1 Aug, 2019 @ 7:55pm 
The description says what you need.

"A minimal mod that disables dropping your inventory on both Survival and Hardcore mode when you die. This does nothing more."
MiloTheWulf 1 Aug, 2019 @ 7:08pm 
what changes are made by this mod, asking for compatibility reasons.
Sapioit 6 Jul, 2019 @ 7:12pm 
Thanks!
Xan  [author] 6 Jul, 2019 @ 3:19pm 
I'll work to resolve that ASAP :ori:
Sapioit 6 Jul, 2019 @ 9:07am 
Interferes with a mod allowing me to teleport to the ship while underground. Uninstalled this mod.
Xan  [author] 26 Jun, 2019 @ 2:15pm 
Yep
Lethann 26 Jun, 2019 @ 10:09am 
Does this still work in 1.4?
Bismarck 31 Mar, 2019 @ 6:03pm 
This is an excellent mod!!! Thank you so much for making it! It really makes Starbound a more enjoyable experience.
ThatRandomTayto 13 Feb, 2019 @ 5:52pm 
I'll do that
Xan  [author] 13 Feb, 2019 @ 5:51pm 
I do suggest testing it in a safe spot first. If it doesn't end up working as I said, do tell me.
ThatRandomTayto 13 Feb, 2019 @ 5:47pm 
Awesome, thanks!
Xan  [author] 13 Feb, 2019 @ 5:26pm 
I don't think it needs to be on the server. I don't know, I haven't tested it. I think it's safe to use client-only.
ThatRandomTayto 13 Feb, 2019 @ 12:41pm 
If I play multiplayer with my friends, will they need to get this mod in order to play, or is it client-side?
Skye Chambers 23 Jan, 2019 @ 6:22am 
Oh sorry, I misread it
Xan  [author] 22 Jan, 2019 @ 11:13pm 
I don't know if you need to have it on the server. You can test it on a new character.
LA5K 22 Jan, 2019 @ 10:30pm 
Its server side? cuz im going to discover it and don't want to lost any character!!! Good improvement!
Xan  [author] 22 Jan, 2019 @ 10:05pm 
Ez mod but thanks
eggsandwich 22 Jan, 2019 @ 9:49pm 
awesome work Xan :)
Xan  [author] 22 Jan, 2019 @ 5:36pm 
What do you mean? I don't understand. This mod only prevents death drops. I don't know what containers have to do with that.
Skye Chambers 22 Jan, 2019 @ 5:35pm 
can you use containers?
