@missionz3r0 that would be great, you have my permission, thanks

Heya cliffyq. It looks like you've not touched this mod in awhile. Neither here or github. Would you be ok if I carried the torch forward? IE, I'd maintain the mod for the foreseeable future.

If I have your permission or if I don't get a response in a reasonable amount of time, I intend to re-publish the mod.

If not, I'll fork it for my own personal uses without publishing it.

Working okay for 1.5?

Booted to 1.5 alright on an existing save, should be an ingame feature for making desire paths. Great mod

This is mod is really cool! It's interesting to see this data about my colony

Can you add Translation Keyed?

updated with v1.4 support

@Damon_Vi In the mods folder click on "Advanced..." then "Open Folder". In the folder that opened up, go into the "About" folder then right click on "About.xml" and click edit. In the file that opened up, find "<li>1.3</li>". and rename "1.3" to "1.4" and save. (Make sure its saved as a .xml) Refresh Rimworld. Hope this helps!

the only reason i'd like a 1.4 "update" is so Rimpy stops making me worry about my mod-list and having "warnings" for mods that work from 1.3

1.4?

I've just tried this on 1.4 with just this mod running. No errors and the heatmap shows successfully. Seems to work fine!

@oszy it is still working for 1.4, I'm using it for my current colony and have had no issues or errors

any plans for 1.4? one of my absolute favs

@Deepfield I can add that feature, if I find the time..

Anyways to further increase the hotness even further than the option in the mod? It's still really hard to see with a colony size of 18

Amazing mod! Thank you

nice idea

I'm using this mod registering over 7 days and every 360 ticks, with no significant performance hit (according to Dubs Performance Analyzer). It's also a great combination with Clean Pathfinding (filth avoidance) & Perfect Pathfinding (find the quickest route over long distances). I would to thank the mod author for making this mod, because I was sometimes wondering : "Hmm ... should I make a path here ?" ; You'll also be able to quickly notice where you forgot to place an autodoor or to hold a door opened. Per pawn basis, it is also useful to notice if they are going on a trip at the edge of the map for some reasons or if you messed up with the hunting priority.

I haven’t noticed any drop, thanks for the quick response and the mod!

@Renegade it shouldn’t, at least not on my machine, but you can turn it on and off to see if there fps drop on yours

Does this drop performance noticeably?

How I have long wanted a mod like this! Cool!

@gomisan great, thanks for testing it out!

Seems to work. Started a fresh game with exactly the same mods and turned on heatmap straight away, it started showing up almost immediately. tnx!

@Rubber Ducky @gomisan @phurgawtin I wasn't able to reproduce the issue on my machine, but I found a potential bug with the code that could be causing this, and updated the mod with a fix. Can you try start a new game and let me know if the issue still persists? Thanks.

@phurgawtin @gomisan thanks for the info! That’s very interesting, I’ll check if it’s caused by some bug in the code

@gomisan, that could be why I suddenly had mine work after quite a bit of game time.

@cliffyq The tip below got it working for me, I suspect it might just be as simple as going into the Mod's settings, as I didnt actually change the Update interval I changed something else cant recall what now sorry.

I'll try and remember to grab the list of mods next time I play. There arent very many at all.

For those who aren't seeing heatmaps, here are steps I took that magically made it start working:

Heave heatmap toggle turned off.
Pause game.
Go into Mod Settings -> Foot Traffic Heatmap
Change Update interval to minimum (60)
Close menus.
Toggle heatmap on.
Unpause game.

Suddenly, you can see footpaths where before there were none. No idea why it works.

Go back into mod settings and change back to 180. It should continue to update and work.

@gomisan could you share your modlist or a save file? I can take a look

@cliffyq At some point of trying to get other mods to work better, it magically functions now, but i have no idea why

I also don't see any heat maps when it's turned on. Started a fresh game with it, but nothing.

@Rubber Ducky no known conflict so far, but if you share your save and mod list I can help take a look

@Cliffyq It's a heavily modded save, just wondering if there are some known conflicts. No matter how long I play I never see it.

@Rubber Ducky it will only show colors for foot traffic after loading the mod for the first time, also wandering doesn’t count as traffic. Do you still not see colors after playing with it for some time? If so can you share your save so I can take a look?

when i turn the heatmap on theres not colours? Any mod conflicts?

This is ideal to know where to spend the resources to put those factory diamond pattern floors from VFE:Mechanoids that have 110% walk speed but take forever to build.

deffo looks really useful. theres another mod that lets you assign the desired paths but this seems more useful as pawns tend to take the most direct path.

Every day, we stray closer to Cities: Skylines

@Acanthos The mod is pretty lightweight so shouldn't affect performance. There's also an "update interval" setting, increasing that value can give better performance.

@daz_ian Yes it's compatible, the move speed adjustment by packed dirt will be reflected in the heatmap.

This looks really good, but does it affect performance?

it absolutely is daz

Would you expect this is compatible with Desire Paths ( https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2072410063 )?
