fun fact: if you have a mod that gives names to random gen monsters (like https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3060280131) , you can actually add them to the dex

this is seriously late, but in case anyone is wondering still, the fish category is specifically for the fish you can catch while fishing, not critter fish or randomly generated fish.

How do you analyze fishes?

in conflict with my classic fantasy modpack for some reason

hey bro can u make a addon for this so it unlocks all the monsters for u and so that the monsters id name is in there

oh this is lovely does it also show you the amount of times you killed them?

no wait dont reply i was just kidding

Terraria Mod included?

Love this mod in concept! Not sure what you could do about it, but scanning a named bounty target will use that bounty's unique name rather than the creature name. I assume it's similarly related to pet flavor/status text overlaying scan descriptions as previously mentioned.

I don't know if you're considering feature suggestions at all, but it would be really cool if designated "milestones" of collecting numbers of creatures in a category gave you rewards of some kind, either from just detecting how many entries are in your dex or interacting with an object/npc who can give quests checking your progress at specific milestones.

Someone mentioned a "shiny charm" - which may have been a joke given this mod's clear inspiration, but it would actually be pretty cool if scanning every unique/rare variety of monster(at least from vanilla) gave you an item that made it more likely for rare variants of unique monsters to spawn while you're carrying it.

So I got two minor problems; one: whenever you scan a pet the flavor text, e.g. "Thinking of cheese" gets overlaid the description, making me look for hard to find monsters all over again; and two, it displays an image of what position the monster was in at the time. Could we get a re-imager function on the dex and/or a removal of flavor text please? Otherwise, pretty good mod.

Do I get the shiny charm after completion?

Also, does this utilize a framework similar to Custom Collections UI? I'm trying to understand why the CCUI mods don't seem to work any longer while mods like this do.

Excellent mod! Super polished interface and handy for seeing monster resistances and weaknesses on the fly. My recommendation for an unrealistic additional feature: mod-added monsters display the name of the mod they're from—just as a matter of curiosity.

thanks for making starbound into a space pokemon Xd its really funni

gotta analyze em all :D

@Namuli Good thing. I gonna make a report one day if i see something suspect again. You make a great job !

(To warn you, I'm not the one testing. I just watch people try and see the flaw that arises.)

@Irydius
I modified the monster data to be stored in the Player instead of in the item.
Hopefully the lag caused by the scripts scanning the item the player is holding is gone.

@Namuli Meh... kinda stupid, but at least there's kind solution to fix it without update. Otherwise, needs as well find some sort of smarter solution to fix the problem.

@Isaak7935
I think it's probably impossible. I'll see if there's a way to display treasure pool.

@Irydius
I think it's because the scan data is stored in the item. If you put it in storage when not in use, all the lag will be gone. ;ㅅ;

Is this possible to show what can be looted ? Not the %, only the items, cloud be VERT USEFUL for the farming of some stuff

I noticed that this mod has a big flaw. As you analyze it, the game starts to lag severely. You really have to be careful not to have fun analyzing everything in this game or else the fun risks collapsing. Need probably a bug fix or something like that.

@Stranger Danger
Fixed the suspected cause of the error. Please let me know if the same issue occurs after updating.

I think Tintics cause a issue when scanned since when you view them in the dex you can't view any other dex entries after viewing them unless you exit from the dex and open it again.

This mod is amazing!

Just what i was looking for, thank you!

Thank you!

@graublau
I updated it so that you can see captureable and relocatable information when hovering over the info icon at the top right corner.

Would it be possible to add the information if the creature is capturable?

@YtHaar-Kih
Thank you! I added 'Delete Monster Data' button in the bottom right corner.

Playing a Monster Tamer with Pandora's Box this item is perfect! Thank you!

It works well with other mods and I'm still testing it out, would it be possible to add an option to remove individual scanned profiles as sometimes I've scanned a monster that wasn't intended.

That's just very great and smart, thanks for that!! Again, you're awesome, congratulations! =)

@Alpha Drako
Import all elemental types including custom resistances from the file '/damage/elementaltypes.config' and read the monster's default resistance value directly from the monster file(root.monsterParameters).

Wow, amazing mod, thank you very much for that one! It's really great. I'm curious about that Akkimari Acid Resistance. I mean, which part of the monster file it reads to get that resistance? The basic resistance for creatures count? Custom resistances too? Sorry about the amount of questions, I'm just very amazed by that mod =)

I love it! Thank you very much

Many thanks!

i like this
warm blanket for u

oh..my...god...i need this like right now!

very cool mod!!

Ok. That's nice to hear. *subcribes*

@tigerfestival1988
Perhaps yes, it can be applied to all monsters with names(shortdescription).

Does this work for mods that adds new monsters such as Arcana, Frackin Universe, Pandora's Box etc.?

Huh, nice to see someone's given a new lease on life for the unused long arm item
