[v1.7.0+] Quantum Slider Tweaks
Posted: Thu Sep 26, 2024 1:37 am
Fired up a new Quantum Slider character on a lark, just to see how many paths from the Paths tree I could take at once. 
This is my first Vorloth character, and I pretty much immediately ran into a few things to tweak:
All of that, as you've no doubt already anticipated,
is going out as my new Quantum Slider Tweaks addon. More stuff to be added later if I think of anything, or if anyone has suggestions.
[Implementation notes:]
This is my first Vorloth character, and I pretty much immediately ran into a few things to tweak:
- After discovering the Potion of Wisdom in the addon map data (dirty trick, dude…
), I knew that we would need corresponding talent sources for the planner. - Having met Chlovia, I very much want to make my fortress butler look like her.
- And speaking of "her", Chlovia is flagged in-game as male. I'm… skeptical of this.
All of that, as you've no doubt already anticipated,
is going out as my new Quantum Slider Tweaks addon. More stuff to be added later if I think of anything, or if anyone has suggestions.[Implementation notes:]
Code: Select all
Hooks:
Birther:donatorTiles [to add Chlovia tile]
Entity:loadList [to make Chlovia female]
TalentPointPlanner:talentSource [to add talent sources]
TalentPointPlanner:chatAnswer [to manage talent sources]
We switch the latter to orange for ease of distinction.
Seemed like such a shame to have to use a scaled-back-up version of our very scaled-down 64x128 custom Chlovia tile in chat dialogs when Tradewind_Rider's original image was so nice and high-resolution; now we have a… well, slightly less scaled-down 128x192 chat portrait for her. Still a significant improvement.
