Hey folks, does this mod still work?
SharleBu 22 Sep, 2024 @ 9:16pm 
+1 to Ivan's idea, will be great in that way.

Anyway subbed
Ivan 20 Sep, 2024 @ 5:58am 
Ok
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 20 Sep, 2024 @ 5:40am 
@Ivan, that's probably not that difficult to do - but not something i have any interest in adding.
Ivan 19 Sep, 2024 @ 7:03am 
Instead of removing it outright in winter
Ivan 19 Sep, 2024 @ 7:03am 
I just mean maybe reduce chances of a catch of successful fish.
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 16 Sep, 2024 @ 5:16pm 
@Ivan, not sure what you mean. You don't need to use all 3 mods, just enable the ones you want - and you can use the Sandbox to change the temperature at which each activity is disabled.
Ivan 16 Sep, 2024 @ 4:36pm 
Any chance we can configure the farming, trapping and fishing? As you can still trap and fish IRL.

@Fallen Seraph, thanks for letting me know - I'll fix that now.

Hey, just a heads up, there's something weird with scope and Sandbox variables. You'll need to move the "indoorCheat" variable into the update function. I suggest the following, but anything works.

if SandboxVars.PrepareForWinter_IndoorFarming and not luaObject.exterior then
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 6 May, 2024 @ 3:39am 
@-Mr. K-, I have added an option to the sandbox. The mod Change Sandbox Options will let you enable indoor farming on an existing save.

@Hugo Qwerty I second the request from Coz, I would be willing to financially support the creation of either a new mod that works the way he mentioned or sandbox settings to do the same. I actually assumed it worked this way already, I was fully prepared to drive across Louisville in search of nails to build a greenhouse, lol.
Coz 31 Oct, 2023 @ 6:30pm 
@Hugo Qwerty could I commission you to create a version where the crops can be maintained if heaters/indoor farming is used? Please add me as a friend if you are interested. Thanks!

@Hugo Qwerty clicking abort on the fishing window fixes that issue.
Animation freezes after fishing window is closed.
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 9 Oct, 2023 @ 2:46pm 
@Tempritscher, I've only seen that happen once in my time playing with the mod enabled - starting to fish and then cancelling fixed it for me. If that doesn't work, you might have to remove the mod as I can't think of any other suggestions.

stuck in spear fishing animation after installing this mod

Hi @KimPanDan, the mod kills plants based on temperature outside - even if the plants are inside. The purpose of the mod is to make winter farming impossible.
KimPanDan 16 Sep, 2023 @ 6:01pm 
Even though I farm indoors and adjust the temperature, the crops die... unfortunately.:steamsad:
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 13 Sep, 2023 @ 4:52am 
Hi @4 4Ever, I don't think so - the farming code doesn't even change any of the vanilla code, so it should be fine to use with farming mods.
Bostson 12 Sep, 2023 @ 6:36pm 
can this mod screw other farming mods? more smokes for example, or soul fincher farming time
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 5 Aug, 2023 @ 1:17am 
@AndreGamer2757, yes - however you won't be able to edit the default temperatures unless you use a mod like Change Sandbox Options.
AndreGamer2757 4 Aug, 2023 @ 3:05pm 
Can it be added to a already existing save?
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 29 Jul, 2023 @ 10:27am 
@Mr. Sinister - the fishing & trapping aspects are meant to be a challenge rather than be a realistic representation of winter. The temperature for each feature can be independently adjusted via the sandbox.
Mr. Sinister 29 Jul, 2023 @ 8:49am 
You can still catch fish and trap animals in the winter, it's just a little bit harder. You should make adjustable variables to how hard it is to catch animals and fish instead of just making it impossible.

Change the picuture please. Replace with a more attractive one. The vanilla picture misleads me that this is just a fix or patch but it's not that simple! Great mod anyway.
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 7 May, 2023 @ 7:09am 
Hi 极限生存 , I have never used the Permafrost mod so I don't know whether this mod will be compatible.
123 7 May, 2023 @ 6:50am 
可以兼容这个吗
Permafrost
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 2 May, 2023 @ 7:46am 
Hi @Kamilosss54, my mod doesn't alter sickness - all it does is reduce plant health in the cold (it never increases plant health). Plants surviving for a long time with a disease is vanilla behaviour.
Kamilosss54 2 May, 2023 @ 7:39am 
Yes but i mean when they had status ''sickness'' they were growing anyway, like the health status is just a decoration
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 2 May, 2023 @ 6:27am 
Hi @Kamilosss54, the mod doesn't change the vanilla plant healing - so plants can heal away the health loss below 5c. When the temperature drops below 0c the health loss gets much worse. If you want the health loss to happen sooner, you can use the sandbox settings to adjust the temperature at which plants lose health.
Kamilosss54 2 May, 2023 @ 4:57am 
Well, i tested it on multiplayer, and the crops were getting sick under 5c that was working, but they are growing anyway, and when there are some days over 5c even for couple hours, then they are healing, so its not really working
SumYungGuy 26 Mar, 2023 @ 5:32pm 
That's a shame. Been trying to find ways to make farming harder, but not impossible.
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 26 Mar, 2023 @ 5:18pm 
@SumYungGuy, correct - there is no benefit to farming indoors, the outdoor temperature will still determine whether plants lose health.
SumYungGuy 26 Mar, 2023 @ 4:38pm 
Only counts outdoor temperature? No greenhouses allowed?
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 6 Feb, 2023 @ 5:41pm 
Hi @No, Punish ME Daddy, glad you like the mod. I'll see what I can do to fix that.
★Bogish450★ 3 Feb, 2023 @ 9:05am 
Hello! (Multiplayer usage)

1. This is a amazing mod.

2. I've found one bug - when trying to fish below temperature it says above the character "Its too cold to fish" and the character bugs out and cant move from the space they are in.

I've found a fix to get unstuck which is to hit "ok" on fishing again and wait to re-equip the weapon and then moving before it gives the "its too cold to fish" statement.

I hope this can be looked at cause again this mod is amazing and my players LOVE it!
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 2 Feb, 2023 @ 3:21am 
Hi @Creath_, I haven't tested it but it should work multiplayer.
Creath_ 2 Feb, 2023 @ 3:13am 
Is this a challange? Or can me and my mates do this in a multiplayer SEVRER
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 18 Jan, 2023 @ 1:50am 
Hi @Imagine Wagons, yes I'm fine with you doing that.
Imagine Wagons 17 Jan, 2023 @ 10:31pm 
Hi, I'm representing a larger server and was wondering if we could please put your mod in a mod pack for our server. This is specifically for our own manageability, reduced workshop update restarts, version control, and server longevity between wipes. The modpack would be private and all recognition of the mods inside will be given to the owners of those mods. We appreciate any leeway you can give us on this, so we can provide our players with the best experience.
DreadLordNaf 28 Dec, 2022 @ 11:22am 
Cool thanks will mess around with that.
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 28 Dec, 2022 @ 11:17am 
Hi @DreadLordNaf, you might want to try: getClimateManager():getAirTemperatureForSquare​(square). I suspect you'll only be able to do this if the square is loaded, which requires a player to be near.
DreadLordNaf 28 Dec, 2022 @ 10:46am 
Hello I was studying your mod as I'm attempting to work on one where certain things are affected based on the temperature. I'm curious do you know what the getTemperature function would be if I only wanted to pull the temperature of the room where something is located? Versus pulling it from the outside temp like your mod does? Thanks for any help on this.
Dude 27 Dec, 2022 @ 11:14am 
No fish below 0c? What happened to ice fishing? :)
spoon 25 Dec, 2022 @ 2:12am 
Best mod EVER!
PepperCat 17 Dec, 2022 @ 12:16pm 
Gotcha, thanks for the response! wanted to understand that before build an useless building for that hahaha awesome mod :)
Hugo Qwerty  [author] 17 Dec, 2022 @ 12:07pm 
Hi 76561198856518799, yes this mod only checks the outdoor temperature - growing crops indoors with a heat source won't help the plants survive. That would be nice, especially if a glass roof were required as well, but it's not something I plan on adding.
PepperCat 17 Dec, 2022 @ 11:44am 
It considers the outside temperature for farming? it isn't possible to plant inside with a heath source to counter that right?
AstrayCuriosity 12 Dec, 2022 @ 10:58pm 
Please change the name of your mod for something more informative like "winter fishing, farming rework" or "tweak" so people could find your mod easily. I was waiting for something like this for so long. :steamthumbsup:
