Cute Survival Plushies 1.8

Suggestion: they are plushies, so they should be able to be used as fuel?

 

Also, having to squeeze them before you can pick them up is a little annoying. maybe left-click to pick up, and right-click to squeeze when they are on the ground?

Crash when squeezing beefalo plushie in chest.

 

(errlog removed).

btw cwc, you can remove that stack backtrace now, the bug is fixed since 1.2

I really love this mod :3 I look forward to seeing what you do with the WIP ones  

At first, the mod worked OK. But then, after collecting many plushies and trying to load saved game:

@Estel That's bizarre, I will look into fixing the tallbird plushie.

Thanks - I see that you rolled new file a hour later, but no mentioning of tallbird plushie in changelog, so I assume the issue still stands? Be sure to mention it when it's fixed, had to disable plushies mod for now, but would love using it, obviously.

Cheers,

 

@Estel, it is fixed already. The issue was with all plushies that make you seem like a mob (the "mob-ise" dolls (yeah I don't know either)). You can now safely move your mossling, beefalo and tallbird plushies around.

Thank You! saying "that was fast" would be epic understatement, then

After playing for a long while with this mod, I have small suggestion. Namely - while i really like what it does - I think that plushies from "commonly" done things (like killing spiders, chopping trees, killing tallbirds, to name a few) are dropping too often. Most of the time, I'm literally swimming in spider plushies after few bigger fights, and after clearing half of tallbird confederacy, I had 7 of their toys

I think that globally reducing drops 5x times OR reducing only drops for commonly done things, but even more, would be great - after all, those should be relatively rare pleasant surprises, not something so common that people are asking (like few messages ago) for actually being able to use them as fuel in campfires.

Cheers,
/Estel

Ps.
The fact that they're so common - apart from clutter - also quite wrecks balance of pig king. Basically, there is no need to give him anything else, as he throw tons of gold just for "utilized" plushies. At the rate that they're spawning now, it would be the case even if he would pay just 1 gold for every toy...

Thanks for the update! Out of curiosity, any plans to push actualization to the version hosted on Steam workshop?

Not that I'm fan of Steam (in fact, equally opposite), but considering that DST is sadly still Steam-only, ease of keeping mod u-to-date via workshop is cup of honey in the barrel of PITA

@Estel since the DST client-side changes are still untested (RIP my computre), I didn't push the update to steam because of the auto-updating. But I will push it to singleplayer, on second thought.

can i ask what the prefabs for this mod are? 

@qtcuddlesquids the prefabs are mostly the actual creatures' prefabs with the "doll_" prefix (e.g. "doll_pigman"). If you are planning to make your own dolls, maybe you want to use the MakeDoll function from your modmain.

what does the poison birchnut plushie does?

As stated in the list above, the birchguard plushie pacifies nearby birchguards.

The mod seems nice, but people are having trouble to store things inside the chester plushie. It recognizes as a container, but it doesn't accept any items.

I have a couple of questions regarding some terms you used for the plushie effects.

General question. Plushies that involve summoning (ex. Clockwork chess) or other active effects (ex. Butterfly growing  flowers , rock lobster pooping rocks , bee giving honey, any plushies that ,,soothe’’ mobs  etc.) are one time use?And in order to use them , do they have to be on the ground or in the inventory works just as well?

Pigman – full recruit time = as long as the day lasts ?

Bosses  - can encourage an attack? What does it mean?

Koalefant (and simillars) – accelerates hunting? What does it mean?

Ghost- haunts the area? As in creates the mist usually found near a graveyard?

 

 

Sorry for what may seem ,,dumb’’ questions but I stumbled over some plushies in-game and they didn’t do anything after interacting with them.

@DelgadoKenway most plushies just have a cooldown until you can use their magSCIENCE again. Pigman plushies cause the highest possible loyality (two and half days by default without modifiers such as Woodie). Seasonal giant plushies guarantee an attack if possible at the moment, else make the upcoming one happen sooner. Koalefant plushies just let you hunt more often. Ghost plushies only have minimal effect without DST and are more for fun than anything else

If I can ask, do the plushie powers still work just for the host on a one-sharded server?

How should one go about acquiring a Mr. Skits plush?

Dropped by regular shadows, just less likely.

May I ask, is there going to be an update that features Shipwrecked plushies?

I'd honestly love to see a Ballphin plush ^.^

Is it possible for a version of this mod to be created that adds the plushies but doesn't include their game altering effects? I like the idea of little aesthetic collectables but I'm not really big into mods that change gameplay too much.

There's an option for that in the mod configuration (when selecting mods).
