Mod not working on a dedicated server

[Lumina]

Hello,

 

I made a mod adding a starting stuff if season is summer/winter. Seems to work on classic server but not on dedicated server.

Could someone help me finding why ?

Is there specific things to add for dedicated server ? And when ? All the mod require it ?

 

Thank for the help.

First of all:

all_clients_require_mod = true

​

[Seiai]

all_clients_require_mod = true

this makes it so all the clients have to have the mod installed, but that's not really necessary, since adding the items is something that has to happen on the serverside.

@Lumina,

did u put prints in there to try to figure out whats happening?

[Lumina]

Ok i must remove the "all_clients_require_mod = true", but must i replace it by something else ?

 

And i don't have prints, sorry. I haven't dedicated server (and have trouble having one) so i'm not able to test it myself.

 

Thanks for the help

@Lumina, set it to false? 

[Lumina]

It's done. I was just wondering if it need a "server only=true", but i suppose that if "all client" is false it's necessarily a "server only" mod.

@Lumina, setting all_clients_require to false and client_only to false makes it a server only mod. Based on the code it should work flawlessly on dedicated servers, although I personally would have hooked into the player via AddPlayerPostInit instead of doing it the way you did.

And i don't have prints, sorry. I haven't dedicated server (and have trouble having one) so i'm not able to test it myself.

u can have a local dedicated server.

as for the print, uhm, just add them? print("yay the code reached this point!")

[Lumina]

Ok. Thanks again for the help.

 

@Kzisor

I find an example using this method but i don't know enough to know the others methods possible or find the best.

 

 

@Seiai

Yes, i know for the local dedicated server, it's just a little hard to configure and all.

 

So, for the print i was thinking it was a sort of error log. Sorry, my english is not really good and the code language is sometime difficult to understand.

 

What is the use of the print ? A sort of mark to see if some part of the code are working ? How i must use it ?
I know it could seems very basic for you, but i'm a little lost.

[Seiai]

@Lumina,

u can see it in the console and in the logfile.

so if it reaches that point in the code, it prints whatever u put in the printfunction. u can just use this as a marker, or output variables to see what's in them at that point.

Not got the time to test it for now, but i'm wondering : how the Reign of Giant content is working ? because in the classic game it was separate files. Here i don't know. Do i have to make something special to tell that it need RoG content ? Could the crash come for server disabling RoG content ?

[Seiai]

@Lumina,

RoG is not seperated in DST.

[Lumina]

Ok thanks I've seen some mod put line like "if GLOBAL.IsDLCEnabled(GLOBAL.REIGN_OF_GIANTS) then", so i was not sure.

[Kzisor]

@Lumina, those mods are probably set up to run on both DS and DST.
