solved Is it possible to become unaffected by the speed bonus of roads?

[RadiantRoma]

For the character I'm making (this is the last request, I swear!), to offset the speed bonus around trees, maybe being unaffected by the speed boost of roads (or maybe half the bonus?) would balance them out nicely. I found some variables like "self.fasteronroad" in components\locomotor.lua, but other than that I couldn't find a lot relating to the speed bonus. Any help  will be greatly appreciated!

@Romanful

For your custom player have this in the master_postinit:

local FasterOnRoad_old = inst.components.locomotor.FasterOnRoad
inst.components.locomotor.FasterOnRoad = function(self, ...)
    self.fasteronroad = false
    return FasterOnRoad_old(self, ...)
end

Reason why I'm setting it constantly here is because if the player's state changes from something else (ghost/other mod/etc) then it might revert your edits, and it's much easier just keeping it set to false than having to bother with mod integration.

 

I didn't quite test how this will affect client movement prediction when it's enabled, as I have it permanently disabled.

@CarlZalph It seems to work! Thanks!

From how it looks, it disables the speed bonus altogether. Would it be possible to just reduce the bonus? Like I think roads increase speed by 50%, would it be possible to make it 25%?

inst.components.locomotor.fastmultiplier = 0.5

 

I suppose this could also be a way to disable roads, by setting this to 1.0.

(Though by doing this would also disable mounts getting speed bonuses)

Would that only do it on roads, or for all fast multipliers (like the walking cane, or my custom tree speed bonus)?

All speed bonus? Or just speed bonus for roads? Because it would be sort of canon if the character wasn't good at riding animals either.

Sorry for all the questions, just trying to be thorough!

Should only affect road bonus movement.

Its only use is in the locomotor component itself:

        self.groundspeedmultiplier = self:FasterOnRoad() and (
                (RoadManager ~= nil and RoadManager:IsOnRoad(x, 0, z)) or
                ground.Map:GetTileAtPoint(x, 0, z) == GROUND.ROAD
            ) and self.fastmultiplier or 1

okay awesome. 

and i wouldn't need any of this, right? 

local FasterOnRoad_old = inst.components.locomotor.FasterOnRoad
inst.components.locomotor.FasterOnRoad = function(self, ...)
    self.fasteronroad = false
    return FasterOnRoad_old(self, ...)
end

just inst.components.locomotor.fastmultiplier = 0.5 in master_postinit

This is the last question, I swear! Thank you for all the help!

Yeah, that's to disable the non-mount bonuses.

Just using the multiplier will affect both non-mount and mounted bonuses.
