Fallout: The Sum / Nous Aurons mod

Hi there. Oh I'm surprised by that. The game is still intented to have various starting locations... around 20 like in 1.5.5. If you still have the file core/missions/uniques/ARRIVEE_Introduction.mis from 1.5.5, you could replace the one in 1.5.6 this should solve it for you. If not you can edit the file directly using the launcher after pressing MORE then LEVEL EDITOR, but I will have to give you some more pointers on how to accomplish this. Still, a new version is coming in the next weeks with many additions and bug fixes!

Oh thank you for all this! I am currently debugging for the next version, so I'll tell you where I am at now :

GAS MASK : Took a note of the gas mask. As it works by identifying the item name, there must be a bug with the whole script. I'll take a look.

HUNGER : Following another player's comment, I added an effect to every food, giving temporary hunger immunity when eating to slow down hunger. I think I went too far, so I divided that effect duration for the next version (max 30 ingame minue immunity). This might still be too much and I am thinking about removing that entirely. It was probably better before.

FOOD : I will try removing some of them, you are right that in some places, there is a very high quantity of food.

AMMO : I am surprised by this one, I thought that ammo was rare in the game. I recently changed most of the bullets for broken ones that now stack together. You can use them but they are not effective. As soon as your character has 50 and more repair, he.she converts parts of them into regular bullets (the more Repair, the more bullets are "saved"). I think this will solve the Too much bullets problem at the same time as bullet duplication.

NPC missing : I realized yesterday that all NPC levels were poorly implemented in the game, resulting in them missing almost all the time. I changed all these NPC to give them proper level and XP value consistent with the lore. A lot of NPC will still miss often as they are not combat-oriented guys, but soldiers and other paramilitary character will give you hell of a fight now I think.

I appears that the mission maps too can multiply xp a lot of some characters, so please report if you find any other character give way too much XP, I'll fix that easily.

Oh thanks for the detailed screenshots! Hopefully, with all my rework of the entities, the engine will completely stop multiplying the XP ad infinitum after kills... :P It is happening when a level is set in an entity, asking for the engine to level up a character by itself. The results are... euh... strange to say the least.

As for the cow, I realised that if you assign a condition to a character, like "prone" or "unconscious", and then that character joins the team, the condition is permanent and reset every damn time it spawn. Quite sure this is what is happening with the cow. I will have to switch the cow for one that is not unconscious for the bug to stop happening, but yeah thanks for this!

As finally for the doubled items, this is very hard to arrange as the engine is often bugged, resulting in tagname being not assigned in various situations. Then items with and without tagnames do not stack, even if this is the same item... Very frustrating Engine...

Thanks! Nothing that can't be fixed. I think some of the bugs you experience comes from armor sprites not having the same size as other sprites, resulting in some characters being able to easily squeeze through surprising thight spaces while power armors get stuck. Still, I will see if I can slightly reduce the power armor bounding box, as I hate when the engine is blocking us for no apparent reason. Anyone should be able to force his.her way in those kind of small corridors.

As for the stats over 10, it is a design choice to allow having the night person trait still be useful if you have 10 in one of the stats already, and also power armor when you already have 10 of strengh. But the grey boxes next to the numbers and logic indicate that 10 is the limit, and you reported this as a bug, SO I am unsure it was a good design decision... I'd appreciate your thoughts on this.
