ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Okay, yeah, I wasn't very clear. 0player's suggestion fixed things, so I'll try to lay out what I was trying to do, and what eventually worked, in case this is useful for anyone else. I wanted to modify individual parameters of a talent. With core talents, this is pretty straightforward - just super...

Okay, cleaned that up, posted something from a failed attempt. The problematic piece of code looks like this. function hookLoad() Talents.talents_def.T_BLEAK_OUTCOME.sustain_vim = 2 end I tried a more normal hook (loading a race definition) in this same function, and if I don't try the Talents call,...

Okay, so I set up the hook (note, set hooks to true in init.lua or you'll spend an hour staring dumbly at your code wondering why your addon won't admit hooks exist) and ... now, instead of not seeing the Ashes-specific entries in Talents, my attempted changes can't see Talents at all. Lua Error: /d...

I'm messing with modifying the Ashes DLC content with another addon, and I've run into an issue. I understand that I have to make sure my addon loads after Ashes to make its changes appear, and that appears to be happening in te4_log.txt. I'm trying to superload some talent changes ... but TOME does...

I'm having a lot of trouble working out how persistent zones (ala Kor'Pul or Trollmire) are added to the game. I've sort have gotten to the idea that persistent ones need to be specifically called out on the game's Map instance, while others (like Ancient Elven Ruins) are added in via the encounter ...

...

Yeah, that would help.

Thanks!

So, I've been mucking around with coding addons lately, and the biggest problem has been the lack of documentation. I'm stumbling around, cribbing stuff from other addons and relying on trial-and-error to get things done. So: I'm going to ask stupid questions about modding. Hopefully, someone answer...

So, solipsists are getting nerfed shortly. This is ... only to be expected, as they are stupidly good. I managed to clear the game with one, so they must be overpowered. One part of the changes that are coming which sort of worries me, though, are the likely changes to Mind Sear. At the moment, it's...
