Hi Zarays, thank you first of all for your mod work. I have a couple of questions / suggestions if you can spare the time:

1. Unless I'm missing it, you can't at present copy a character's (Persistent) DNA and then paste it in the Character Creator.

Would it be possible to add an extra entry with it (something like "Copy Persistent DNA" or whatever name you think best) to the Change Appearance menu?

2. This might not fit 100% the scope of the mod, but I'll ask since some of the functionality is already there. In this menu

Would it be possible for you to add extra current gene information about the target character, like for example Height, Muscles and Bust size, like you did with Weight?

I've been looking for ages for a mod that would display such values to quickly compare characters, but with the mods out there there's only partial functionality.

Barbershop for examples tells you the majority of those values but it's partial (Height is a character's current height and not their gene value, Bust is not present at all), Adjustable Bust doesn't show the gene value (always starts at 0).

You're forced to check characters' DNA, and as you may know it's a major pain in the neck because you've got to land a character if unlanded, get their ID, unpack your save, find them there and all of that jazz.

A small and quick display like what you've done for Weight but for other highly visible values such as Height, Muscles and Bust size would be fantastic. A quick way to copy Persistent DNA (what I was talking about in point #1) would also give you a roundabout way to do that, while also being very handy overall for character creators.

Sorry for the long post, thank you again for your mod work and also for the quick updates to 1.10!

Hello
1) I'm limited by CK3 scripting language of what I can do
That mod is just a character interaction, I cannot add things that exist in character creation window for example, because custom GUIs works differently
If the time will come when devs will add an option to use a custom GUI in character interaction by adding path to "interface", instead of limited options that "interface" has right now, I will definitely make that mod much much better and with various options

2) I have only things that are in the scope. Weight and if no_muscularity tag enabled. I'll check later, maybe add something else. But right now I'm trying to mod Baldur's Gate 3, and won't be going back to CK3 any time soon

I see, not as straightforward as I hoped.

Thank you for taking the time to explain, I hope you'll come back to CK3 in the future!

To all that suggested adding ability to copy past DNA from clipboard like in character creation
I did try it, in fact I have a different version of that mod, that operates via event window with custom GUI
I've tried to add buttons from character creation, but they didn't work at all
And I couldn't find a way to make them work
Maybe I'll figure it out someday, if that even possible, of what I doubt right now
Zarays  [developer] 30 Nov, 2023 @ 2:38am 
Right now it seems that functionality of these buttons is hardcoded somewhere outside of modding scope

Maybe thats why no one actually implemented that in mods for all these years🤷🏻‍♂️
