Cant wait for B42 stable just for this mod to be updated, I love it and miss it so much, great immersive mod man :steamthumbsup:

I think its most likely a problem within the base game. I got the Frozen Winter mod which makes winters much colder, but its not changing summer. In my game its mid september right now and I got the early summer moodle 2 ingame days ago, then a day later the winter moodle and today its autumn. The only change I have seen is temperature wise. I am not a modder and do not have a clue about modding in general but I thought it was worth reporting. Other then that your mod works fine for me and it doesn´t really bother me. Its kinda funny. You alway wonder which season you will be in today. :)

As for B42, currently I'm not playing the game. I'll update when B42 is fully released.
BOBcat  [author] 4 Mar @ 7:55am 
@Maze - This mod sets the season icon and season progression by calling the `getSeasonName()` and `getSeasonProgression()` functions which are part of the base game.
So, either the mods you mentioned are modifying these base game functions to achieve what they do, or something is wrong with the base game.

The seasons moodle for B41 doesn´t work correctly. The icon is changing based on temperature, not on months as it should be. If you have mods running that change winter or summer temperatures the moodle is constantly changing between summer, autumn and winter. Just wanted to let you know.

B42?

Ok, so, I only use Weather Moodles with Definitive Zombies so I don't always use it. And it's been awhile. But in my new game here, I am not getting any weather moodles displayed (yes, Mod Options are set correctly). I remember this happening before and that there was some ingame trick to getting them to appear. Just some weird little quirk. But it's been so long I can't remember what that was.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? xD

i don't know why, but this was the most immersive mod during my last play-through. so simple yet brilliant. looking forward to playing with it on 42

B42 PLEASE
alec 18 Dec, 2024 @ 6:18pm 
hopefully this updates!
=FAKE= 18 Dec, 2024 @ 2:55pm 
Are there plans to upgrade to 42?
pK0RD 18 Dec, 2024 @ 12:46pm

AQUI TEM SOBREVIVÊNCIA 15 Nov, 2024 @ 5:59am 
Thank you. Very nice. Sucess!!!
Seven Oaks 3 Nov, 2024 @ 6:33am 
hey! thank you for the mod! Does this work purely client side? So, could you run this mod if the server does not run it?
Again, thank you for your effort! :)

@Doctor Neetzow - I don't know why but I was touched by your comment :steamhappy: So, Christmas came early for you! Read the change notes.
Doctor Neetzow 27 Oct, 2024 @ 11:13am 
I was looking for something to tell me the seasons... Where I live it's not really a thing, so even knowing the month of the year it's not intuitive... but my character would know.
So... I'm waiting for that season indicator update like a kid waiting for christmas.

Noted the incompatibility with the Big Moodles mod. I will fix it, if I ever get back to modding.

@Trapito222 - This mod utilizes the moodles system to do what it does. To make the thing you described, one would have to delve into the UI system, which I have no idea about.
Baleur 9 Oct, 2024 @ 9:47pm 
Yeah hope the moodle offset with Big Moodles can be fixed
~vicky.salazar92~ 2 Oct, 2024 @ 1:24pm 
Is it possible to have instead a version that simply displays the current weather in our character screen, under zombie kill counter or maybe in the temperature panel as text? that way we only get to see weather when we care and not get moodles, that personally can confuse me sometimes since i am stupid
Big Moodles 3011924415,Can you please make it compatible? The icon may shift slightly to the left
BOBcat  [author] 16 Aug, 2024 @ 12:07am 
@Anach - Yes, definitely possible. Good idea, added to to-do list.
Anach 15 Aug, 2024 @ 11:10pm 
Would it be possible to progress the season Moodle level, based on season duration?
Rusty #DopeRust 17 Jun, 2024 @ 6:00am 
No need to thank me @BOBcat, i just said what everyone should say, you guys spent alot of time doing this amazing work for everyone, but most people only come to say bad things and forget/dont thank you all modders for the amazing work that you all do for free.

I've done what you asked, only Mod Manager + all the requirements for your mod + some other moodles mods i already had installed, and only yours do this: https://prnt.sc/Y_aGQ0DDWgGh

Even the mod that you suggested i already had installed.

Thank you once again for the quick reply, and for trying to solve this issue.
BOBcat  [author] 16 Jun, 2024 @ 11:46pm 
Thank you for the kind words @Rusty.

That is a strange problem. I have no I idea how the actual rendering of the moodles is done. I'm using MoodleFramework for that.

Try:
- Start a new game with only WeatherMoodles and MoodleFramework(as it is required for my mod) enabled. If the problem is gone, then there is a conflict with another mod.
- Download a different mod that requires MoodleFramework, such as this mod , see if that also renders incorrectly. If so, that'll mean something is wrong with MoodleFramework.
- Unsubscribe from MoodleFramework, wait a few minutes, resubscribe and try again.
- Verify game files just in case.
- Unlikely, but try increasing/decreasing your game's resolution.

Hello @BOBcat, firstly, let me thank you for this awesome mod, and work.

Secondly, i think the mod is missing something or i found a bug, my weather moodles are like this: https://imgur.com/JjdDkUm

I've tried using Big Moddles, i've tried using Resizables Moddles, both appear like this, i dont understand what is the issue, can you please give me some info?

PS.: it only happens with your moodles.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart in advance.

@Bain - Season names are pulled directly from the game variables. So their date ranges are set by the game devs.
Bain 1 Apr, 2024 @ 12:32am 
spring time moodle appears in mid february instead of starting on the 20th march
Glowth 25 Mar, 2024 @ 4:47am 
Is this compatible with Plain Moodles? Steam workshop id is 3008416736
BOBcat  [author] 11 Mar, 2024 @ 1:57pm 
@Delseyrian - Sure, have fun!

@Tchernobill - Thanks for the heads up.
Tchernobill 7 Feb, 2024 @ 12:22pm 
MoodleFramework (v1.10) can now be split screen compatible.
Use MF.getMoodle(*,playerNum) instead of MF.getMoodle(*)
BOBcat  [author] 20 Jan, 2024 @ 12:42am 
I tested and I see.
I'm using MoodleFramework for the basis of my mod. BetterFood mod author doesn't and has their own implementation for moodle display.
I don't know the logic behind displaying moodles, that's the reason I opted for MoodleFramework.
So, this issue should be reported to MoodleFramework and BetterFood authors. I'll list it as a conflict though, thanks.

better food adds moodles to let you know of your nutritional deficiencies, those moodles appear to be layered underneath your moodles when both are active at the same time, however neither your mod nor better food have any issues with vanilla moodles. i can still see the tooltips from better food's moodles if i hover over them.
BOBcat  [author] 19 Jan, 2024 @ 10:47am 
@tonyzur - That shouldn't be possible. What do you actually mean? Could you provide a screenshot?
473mL of G11's urine 18 Jan, 2024 @ 6:52pm 
these moodles overlap with the moodles from better food
KrFisH 9 Jan, 2024 @ 2:03pm 
@B O B c a t Thank you very much! Testing now. :steamhappy:
BOBcat  [author] 9 Jan, 2024 @ 10:55am 
I forgot the translations for the seasons :steamfacepalm: Well, some other time...
BOBcat  [author] 9 Jan, 2024 @ 10:36am 
@KrFisH - Your wish is granted!

Although it was a little more work than I expected, I managed to add a new moodle that shows the current season. The logic for the other moodles apply for this as well.
It's disabled by default. Also, it is put together fast, there may be bugs, report if so.
KrFisH 3 Jan, 2024 @ 9:13am 
I would like a moodle that shows the seasons. Do you know if it exists?
ThreeTacks 19 Dec, 2023 @ 11:47pm 
The "Starry" moodle icon is genuinely beautiful.
Demia 17 Dec, 2023 @ 9:59am 
I hope this has not been asked before,but in multiplayer when im hosting i get to see the moodles,but other players cant and just get errors.
Bananaut 4 Dec, 2023 @ 2:11am 
would be good to a add neutral option for weather condition indicator rather than good or bad only
ThirtyK 21 Oct, 2023 @ 2:44am 
not work
Anh 7 Rainbow 3 Sep, 2023 @ 8:51am 
Can anyone tell me how to translation to Vietnamese :C?
BOBcat  [author] 30 Aug, 2023 @ 7:25am 
Glad you enjoy the mod!

It can be done by editing the images inside the ui folder: Open them in an editing program and fill the background color with whatever you want instead of transparent.
But there wouldn't be a distinction between moodle levels anymore, you'd have to mouse over them and read their description.

I don't think its even possible to keep both the moodle level functionality and have custom colors on them, and have different colors on different moodles.
Craftusmaximus 30 Aug, 2023 @ 7:16am 
I have a suggestion: can you add an option in the settings for a "mixed" background color (like orange or something similar). The thought being that for example rain can be considered both a positive and a negative trait at the same time.

Awesome mod by the way, really increases immersion!
BOBcat  [author] 29 Aug, 2023 @ 11:55am 
4:20 is very early indeed, but I won't look into this.
Sun/Moon moodle is based on a vanilla variable called the "NightStrength" which is between 0-1.
If that variable is <0.5 (and the weather is clear), sun moodle will be displayed. The sun should come up shortly after.
If I had set specific times of day to display the moodles instead, it would be broken since the day length changes throughout the year.
[GWJ]Baron_Of_Hell 29 Aug, 2023 @ 10:38am 
Might be a problem. It is 4:20 am and sun moodlet is out but it is still dark out.
Kras 19 Aug, 2023 @ 1:12am 
@BOBcat - I'll keep an eye out.
BOBcat  [author] 18 Aug, 2023 @ 11:43pm 
@Kras - I'd like that too. But I don't know if there's a function for it.
If you know of another mod that does this, let me know and I'll add it.
Kras 18 Aug, 2023 @ 11:38pm 
Is it possible to add an option to force the weather moodles to stay at the top of the list?
