@Ganondwarf your the goat

@mashtong54 true, keep in mind

@CanaryGary I can tweak it a little, yes. Shouldn't happen near that often but I can see that feeling off if you get a high rate, thx for feedback!

can you lower the joke rate. as amazing as these are i think in the last 100 npcs i talked one didnt joke. either i have crazy odds or there is a high joke rate

hey if you add some gic sorport you better giongto have to add alot of japanse yoki based jokes for that.

@Poine Huh, must've forgot to test it if that's so. I'll take a look later, thx :)

Getting an error with this mod in merchant.config.patch
Caused by: (JsonPatchException) Could not apply patch to base. (JsonPatchException) Could not apply operation to base. (JsonException) Cannot add a value to the entire document, it is not empty.
Probably because the path value is just ""?

Aand now they do appear in the Bookstore, wonderful.

Another easy fix, thank u very much @JamesTheMaker!

@JamesTheMaker Ah, thanks for bringing that up, fixed!

I must have included my bookstore patch on accident last update (it's not currently working), whoops.

@Ganondwarf I have identified a problem with your mod. When loaded alongside Bookstore, you patch the Bookstore to have your codexices. Problem is, you attempt to add "quirkyquotesv5" when only 4 volumes of Quirky Quotes exist. Please remove this unnecessary patch operation, as it prevents the Bookstore from being opened when used alongside your mod.

Lmk if or when you do madness race support will redownload mod as i usually never use race mods but here recently been using this one

@NonstickSQYD
Not atm, just FU/Elithian.

I do plan to do most, if not all races at some point so yeah, most likely.

support for madness race?

I am also expanding the default repertoire a bit as well to adjust for more races and lowering the frequency a little

You know I should put it in the change notes as well, lemme do that

alright good job

But for now FU and Elithian races should work for everyone

Working on modded races support. FU and Elithian Races are mostly done now, however much more there are I'll add over time, there's a lot :P

aight tell me what's new

Thx for sayin thanks!
Ikr, someone needed to teach them some proper humor for us NPC interactors.

hanks i needed this instead of just hello

Thank you, that's good to hear.
I know, life, am I right?

Thanks for the update Ganondwarf. I understand and am looking forward to the update when the time to make it is best for your life. This mod really does breathe some life into Starbound.

Status update:

Plans are still the same with adding modded races, and another batch of content sometime.

I had been busy with other things recently and I will not promise any dates, but I expect to get back into Starbound and modding this in a short while. I know at least some of you are waiting for other races to start cracking em'.

Gavin and Ganodwarf, I like those ideas!

I could maybe even get npcs to do emotes that way, compatibly too. We'll see.

@Gavin That's some good thinking. I'll do some digging; would have to get into .behavior files, hopefully not lua edits for that. I'll let you know once I see what can be done as I've never delved there before.

I have a good idea, how about making crew members and other npcs tell jokes to each other. I would definitely love to slice n dice some hostile cultists mid conversation.

Thank you Ganondwarf! I love this mod!

If anyone is wondering about progress, I still plan on adding modded race support sooner or later, so yay! I'm now resuming working on this after getting stuck a few months back and also working on another mod.

Cool. I plan to get it out in a couple months or so to as many races with npc’s as I can. I haven’t got to seeing how many lines the modded races have built in, but I have 400 added so if your playing before then it won’t get repetitive, it’s just a little inconsistent with only 7/X races being funny.

i will keep an eye around,when support for modded races are done,im going to subscribe

TLDR future updates

i see,thx,currently has any modded race? or you plan on adding them of future updates ?

@Senpai-kun(GBS) :3 Nope, I don’t have npc’s laugh or anything. This simply adds text so compatibility is hardly an issue for this mod.

this is probably not compatible with manga emotes,does it change expressions or things of the sort ?

Thanks again for your input guys, much appreciated :D

Honestly just adding some quotes and a place to read them is so much more work than I thought it’d be.😅

Ight, should work perfectly now. There’s also now 9 books I had to fit all the lines into, lol.

Probly Talon, don’t know how a darn comma sneaked by

I’ll fix the bug this weekend probly, along with adding the codex.

For those wondering about updates, I don’t have a good connection after moving yet so expect any big updates to drop in at least another month.

I wonder if that was what was going on in my game?

@Wonky Ok, surprised it took so long for someone to mention it, thanks for digging into it for me :)

This mod causes hostile guards to die, caused by an error in \dialog\combat.config.patch on lines 61 and 62. The comma at the end of line 62 should be on line 61 instead. Should be easy to fix ;)

@Talon yeah, I’ve no idea why this mod would cause any issues or conflicts as I just add text. I know if an npctype file has a syntax error it can cause them to die on sight/interaction, but not get damaged. I also remember them dying plus being able to be attacked when I had multiple npc behavior mods installed. If it’s really fine without this mod I don’t know what else to tell ya :/

I'm going to guess it was some weird mod conflict.

I don't know why and I feel like the answer would be even more confusing but for some reason this mod makes NPCs take random ticks of damage, and sometimes even outright die. I uninstalled a few mods trying to single out this issue and this is the culprit???? WHAT???????? HOW?

thanks for the fix! re-subbed :)

@selfKaiHarness -Ultima Weapon- I guess I was using the italic syntax wrong. Easy fix, thanks for the log!
