Monty_Droppings Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 This is really nice! This is really really nitpicking, but the colors don't seem to "fit" into the whole don't starve atmosphere. Any chance you would offer alternate color schemes? I'd like one that use the current day clock colors where red is summer, blue in winter, and the yellow represents autumn and spring (which wouldn't be a problem because they would be separated by summer/winter respectively.

Soilworker Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 Yeah I can certainly change the colors. I wasn't sure which ones to use for which so I took a guess. I was thinking a lighter green would work fine for Spring but I could make summer red and winter a darker blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty_Droppings Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I just made this on paint real quick. Obviously not the real colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soilworker Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 Sweet thanks! I think I'll likely just add options in the mod menu for selecting a color scheme or even just selecting the colors for each season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soilworker Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 The one problem with having autumn and spring be the same color is that if someone decides to create a world without summer or winter, the clock would look odd since there would be no difference between autumn and spring.

TeoSS69 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Finally an in-game solution to keep track of seasons! Got tired of checking my phone everytime I wanted to know how much time I hade let till the next season. Would be great if you uploaded it directly into the Downloads section so I can follow it and keep track of updates.That said, the message when you hover is really small on small HUD sizes (3 for mine) and it's hartd to read. Could you make shorter messages perhaps? Or just put is as an optionf for those with small HUD?Also, would you consider making a "lighter" version? Like instead of a full clock you could get the message "x days into season etc." only when hovering the default clock or opening the map. Or at least make the Season Clock show up and vanish with the press of a key? I like to keep my HUD as simple as possible and this would really help. Thanks!

Just finished coding up the color options. I will add some options for text size and message format as well. I will look into having a "lighter" option and a key stroke to toggle it on and off.

Also I just noticed it works in caves too, might want to add that to the description. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proctor Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Thanks for taking the time to create this mod. I'd like to make the following comments:1. I noticed that the season clock appears in a different position compared to the ones in your screenshots. I think it might be either RPG HUD 55 or Always On Status: Bars Version, which occupies the area just above the inventory, that's causing the issue. Can you look into it? I can't really go far without all that important information.2. Would you consider making a bar version of your mod? It would fit nicely with the AOS: Bars Version. Fitting it together with the other AOS bars would be perfect but I'm willing to accept its placement where the traditional Don't Starve icons were (top right, under clock).I don't mind losing the ability to see the length of the other seasons in advance as I'm more concerned with knowing how much longer the current season will persist. A colored meter with text would be visually pleasing but a simple colored bar with text ("9 Days Left in Spring", "4 Days to Winter", etc) would suffice as well.

Soilworker Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 Hey Proctor,1. I'm working to fix the compatibility issues with RPG HUD. 2. Yes I would. I'm looking to eventually add some different clock styles (plain text, bar, etc). Thanks for the feedback!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ligthi1 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I need Help, i do the steps of the guide but doesn´t work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueberrys Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 doesn´t work It's impossible for anyone to know what the problem is if you don't describe it. "Doesn't work" doesn't work. Read through this guide, and follow every step carefully from the beginning to the end. Then tell us which step you got stuck on. If you successfully followed all the steps, your mod should be enabled and you'll be able to use it while playing.If your mod is still unusable during gameplay, for whatever reason, then please clearly describe what it is and is not doing, and provide your log.txt file. Example, I followed the steps till number 5, but my game crashed when I clicked "apply".(attached log.txt file) Please make sure you read and do ever step in the guide at least once after reading this post.

seronis Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Yes it works. 1000s of people are using it. If it doesnt work for you disable your other mods and use ONLY the season clock to test. Re-enable one other mod at a time until season clcok stops working. That mod is your culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
