@MrAnti Hi, deinem Screenshot entnehme ich das du deutsch verstehst.
Die Inkompatibilität kommt durch SAD_CommonLib.
Du könntest einfach die Mod ID von meiner Mod ändern damit es wieder zusammen funktioniert.
Ich werde dieses aber aus Respekt vor injto4ka hier nicht machen.

@FAIL! Chapi

i think I didn't make myself clear enough. This mod can no longer be activated. Sorry for the late reply, work. Family and so on. I've added a screenshot.

See You.

@CavScout81 When you start the game, you can choose whether you want to start the game normally or in debugging mode.

@MrAnti Even if the mod is obsolete, it should still work. I think.

I've tried using the StrandedSteamDebug.exe but that doesn't seem to do anything different than the normal StrandedSteam.exe.

How does one use/access debug mode?

This mod was, is one of the best mods available for Stranded Alien Dawn Workshop. It allowed you to activate the editor with F3 while the game was running. That was really helpful. It's a real shame that it doesn't work anymore.

This mod is obsolete now - the official map editor is available in the game when started in debug mode.

Hi

Firstly, nice work on the mod.

I have a question about the "Copy terrain & objects" functionality. It copies everything just fine, and the game continues to run normally, but saving the game afterwards causes it to crash. The size of the area and the paste options don't seem to matter. Is this a known problem, and is there a possible workaround?

Once i edit the map, ¿how do i continue playing on it?
wolvescream 1 Jul, 2024 @ 4:01am 
To make terrain arable, just give it the texture, that the plant needs. E.g. for weed make it grass.
Walayimuna 25 Apr, 2024 @ 9:49am 
How do I change the terrain so it's arable?

Clicking on Ctrl-RMB brings up the properties text but when clicking on properties, nothing happens, The objects editor window that comes up in your video doesn't appear for me. I've looked all over the map editor menus and can't find the object editor. Well there were some things that mention objects but when clicking on those nothing happens either. What should I do now?
FAIL! Chapi  [author] 22 Jan, 2024 @ 11:55am 
Try Ctrl-RMB on a Object.
Sometimes the Editor will start in the Background.
Honor 22 Jan, 2024 @ 11:35am 
Sorry to bother you again, but I can't find the properties button.

So this is what I did. I went into map editor, right clicked on several things but nothing happened. Didn't see any words that said properties when right clicking an object or any words at all. So I'm guessing there's another way to access properties on an object but I'm just not seeing it.

I could go into map editor settings and click on the word, properties, which brings up some window, but can't find anything that pertains to my situation.

Please help if you can. Thanks.

You can access the Object editor with Properties right Mouse Button on the Object.
Honor 20 Jan, 2024 @ 12:30pm 
There's just one thing...how do you access the object editor, please?
Honor 20 Jan, 2024 @ 12:29pm 
Thanks for the youtube link. It's very helpful.
FAIL! Chapi  [author] 19 Jan, 2024 @ 3:50pm 
You can take a look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PAGpqFu-lc

About the useable Trees and Crops i have no idea how to Enable them.
Honor 19 Jan, 2024 @ 10:29am 
Ok, finally got the water height figured out, thanks for that. But still haven't figured out how to change the water color, if you might help with that also? Thanks in advance! :)
Honor 19 Jan, 2024 @ 9:13am 
Hope you don't mind if asking a few more questions.

So, there are lakes with different colors. Some are muddy looking, some are blue, some purple and so on. I tried using the texture brush to color the ground under the water to possibly change the water color but that didn't work. So it seems the water itself has different colors. How do you access those colors?
Honor 19 Jan, 2024 @ 8:46am 
How do you determine what is the right height?

Would you be able to make a short video clip on how to make a lake using mod editor?

Also, is there a way to make trees and plants usable when placing them with the mod editor?
FAIL! Chapi  [author] 18 Jan, 2024 @ 4:56pm 
FAIL! Chapi  [author] 18 Jan, 2024 @ 1:54pm 
Well yeah, thats the wrong one.
The right one is called WaterFill.

You can even try to Copy and Paste one thats already on the Map.
Honor 18 Jan, 2024 @ 11:59am 
This is what happens when using W then placing the water marker....
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/profiles/76561198052260657/screenshot/2271570181121647655/

There's a water sound but still no water.
Honor 18 Jan, 2024 @ 8:28am 
I don't know how to do that. There's also an issue with the trees and plants where I can't click on any of them after placing them with the map editor. Are the trees more than decorations using the map editor?

Also, are there instructions anywhere on how to use the map editor and what everything means?
FAIL! Chapi  [author] 17 Jan, 2024 @ 11:54pm 
Did you set the right height with the Move gizmo (W)?
Honor 17 Jan, 2024 @ 5:30pm 
I placed the water markers in a crater like hole and I can hear the water but don't see any water. What am I missing?
Honor 16 Jan, 2024 @ 10:10pm 
Thanks! Can hardly wait to try it! BTW, this map editor is genius! Love It.
Honor 15 Jan, 2024 @ 10:51am 
Is it possible to make a lake or pond or to add water in any form using this map editor?
Paraleo 29 Dec, 2023 @ 1:41pm 
Finally I wanted something like this for a long time, gonna give it a go as soon as I got time to get back to stranded

You can Edit and Create Maps like Project-X: Nebula https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3067788919
Nerolia_Gaming 5 Dec, 2023 @ 7:53pm 
Hi, is this mod for editing the map WHILE you playing? At first I hoped it was for creating the new maps for the game, but then read comments and figured out this mod is about different thing.

@csekesandor19901229

As I said two posts down. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do this at the moment.
csekesandor19901229 25 Nov, 2023 @ 2:28pm 
Thanks for the mod! Excellent job! Could someone help me? I'm placing the plants, but it's just a texture. How to place a plant that can then be harvested?
vapaman 18 Nov, 2023 @ 3:19am 
Roger that, ty for the quick response.
FAIL! Chapi  [author] 18 Nov, 2023 @ 1:01am 
You are not doing anything wrong.
I have not figured out how to add this yet.
vapaman 17 Nov, 2023 @ 1:09pm 
When i add plants (IE: Food or harvester stuff) the item is not selectable and if does it only says cut. Am i doing something wrong
Bungle 12 Nov, 2023 @ 4:49pm 
Chapi!! Thank you so much! That fixed it! I can continue building the moat for my castle now :D
FAIL! Chapi  [author] 12 Nov, 2023 @ 10:28am 
@Bungle Can you try something?

I hope you have Notepad++ or something similar.

Delete inside items.lua the part from Line 2695 to line 2717.

And then load the Game.
Bungle 12 Nov, 2023 @ 9:21am 
I love this mod but it suddenly stopped working. The top toolbar loads but nothing else and functions dont work.

It was working after the update but today its suddenly stopped.
crashdodgers 16 Jul, 2023 @ 11:20am 
OK, so I have been playing with this mod and so far I have been able to input new expeditions and give my survivors new items by doing the research via the cheats menu, but what I want to try and do is edit the relationship between to survivors, I had a go at it but it did not work and I need to know how/where to save the changes?
chaosfoxxx 12 Jul, 2023 @ 10:31pm 
about time this game have a map editor

FAIL! Chapi  [author] 19 Jun, 2023 @ 5:33am 
You could use the Smooth height (S) Option and change the Texture with Terrain texture (T).
For Sobrius you can use the S_Grass_01 Texture.

I second the request for removing the debris scars, this is SO much needed!

I dont know if this is possible.
