Feature suggestion
I thought you might consider adding this feature to your Swiss knife :

How about automating the "add to" function of the context menu? You know, when you ripped about 100 clothes and obtained about 100 half empty threads and you want to stack them all up, it takes forever. I'm aware it's a bit different from the other tools you're offering but I figured you might find it an interesting challenge.

The feature is nice but there's already another mod doing this very well:

Try it out, I have it enabled in my saves too.

Oh wow that is brilliant, Thank you so much !

Uses vanilla actions too, so it's safe and not cheating. It just automates the menu ♥♥♥♥ you have to do.
Fat7i Bonané 16 Jan, 2022 @ 2:36pm 
Oh yeah that's what's awesome about it : I read no cheatingand sequential vanilla actions. Just perfect.

Out of curiosity though, would you have considered creating a mod like that as an addition to bikinitools or otherwise?

i have considered much more, but other modders beat me to it. the autocook for example, the merge tool here and many other ideas. i don't have time to develop new features right now, so bt is on life support for a while. got a lot of ♥♥♥♥ in rl to figure out to get a bit of breathing room.

Of course, I understand. I wish you the best of luck with all of it. I hope you know that you contributed an great creation to the PZ community and I'm very thankful for people like you who make awesome games even better.

Ripped Sheets Buddy (Feature suggestion)
Ooh! ooh! I got one ! I got one !

What about a ripped sheets buddy where you could go about in various radii ripping all clothes from corpses around you to get thread, ripped sheets, denim and leather to level up your tailoring skill ???

sounds reasonable as a feature further down the line, but currently i have a feature freeze in place while i sort stuff out :steambored:
Fat7i Bonané 21 Jan, 2022 @ 9:04am 
Alrighty ! Nice of you to keep my idea in a corner of your mind though !

Any chance you could spill the beans on your incoming feature ??? Mum's the word, cross my heart and hope to die :D
bikinihorst  [developer] 21 Jan, 2022 @ 9:20am 
feature freeze means that there's no further features being added. i am occupied with commission work and have a lot on my plate in real life, so i can't create new features for bt anytime soon

Would love to see an admin tool, player as well I guess, to pick up items only on the ground.

Feature request for a modified corpse stacker that instead buries them in nearby open graves. Understand you've got other things right now, so I'm going to fork it for personal use and try and add it. Guessing it's just building a second search/process queue that filter tiles for available graves and then walking both queues together. I'll post if I get it working and if you want a pull.

Might look into adding a corpse autolooter - either a white/blacklist of items you want to loot.

The mod is great and the code looks very clean as well.

Hi! While I appreciate the enthusiasm and nice words, I do not want my full code copied and redistributed. A compliant solution would be to create it as an automation plugin, a file in /media/lua/client/Automation/ only containing the extended functionality. The automations i currently have are already plugins working on my queue and the whole context menu and automation queue system works without hard coded entries. Could we agree on trying it this way? I'd like to lend a hand in making an automation plugin possible. It's what i originally had in mind but never documented.

Oh, absolutely. I would not distribute this in any way. I planned on creating it either as a plugin or separate mod using your mod as a library dependency (plugin but in a separate package) - but either way keeping it for my personal use. I wouldn't release anything without your approval.

Sounds good to me. It's evening here and I'm watching a movie, so send me a friend request and we'll figure the rest out tomorrow.
