Winter kinda sucks and I’ve been rather slow
Seasonal depression probably, Michigan has been getting a LOT of snow this year, so I can’t go outside as much, been having some other personal issues, the government is, but I’m staying hopeful and I’m not going to just disappear. most of what I’ve been able to do is a lot of minor behind the scenes polish as well as documentation and providing examples of features in the codebase that haven’t really been used yetI’ve made a template...
Apple is doing an Apple
thought I’d just note this since I learned of this today, for the like, three or so mac users, even if I did end up fixing my distribution build issues Apple is making it so unsigned applications just, will not be allowed to run, and removing the option for you to tell it you want it to run anyway so uhm yeah, get a machine to run linux or windows on, not just to run this since I probably won’t end up figuring that out regardless, but to actu...
Not much being done right now (holiday season obviously)
but I do want to acknowledge the results of the poll 3.2 feature pollThats crazy, Naga and Wolftaur were neck and neck near constantly, Naga ended up edging out by a single vote in the end. Losing options aren't lost forever they'll be returned to later.And it looks like we gonna be making an even bigger cock sprite, which should be very fun heh.And Tail Vore! I expected it to be the one honestly, it was also the runner up in the previous...

Development starts again in october!
So, reminders, though I doubt anyone forgot.3.0 took about half a year of work fully rewriting everything in the mod to be far far cleaner code wise and function a whole lot better by also being able to modify the engine for how I needed it to behave.The goal for 3.0’s release had been to match everything 2.8 had, but do it better! However some less important things didn’t make it in, or some other things still needed a considerable amount of...
3.0.1 Fixes
Engine ChangesCheck for status based tool suppression is redone when a status inits or clears (Fixes edge case where eggs would error and then disable tools until the next time an egg was broken free from)arm angle transform groups should update immediately (fixes issue where first projectiles from weapons with an idle stance might not work correctly)put player.config movement overrides back in (read docs)fixed error with species that have no hai...
SBQ Dialogue contribution/translation repo
https://github.com/WasabiRaptor/SBQ-DialogueIn past versions of the mod, it was rather difficult for people to contribute dialogue lines or translate any of the text in the game due to how Starbound normally handles things, and how I hadn't originally thought about needing translations, Strings were jumbled in with functional code and etc. It wasn't good. During the full re-write in 3.0 I had the plight of translators in mind, and I desig...
Macos Build doesn't work
anyone who was trying to use the macos build it isn't workingWe're going to figure this out soon, but we at least have an idea as to why it isn't workingMe and Zygan both have a mac, and when we were doing testing we both were building on our own machines, it's likely something in the build configuration has it just pointing to where libraries are located our own machines rather than including them in the build, so when trying to ...
To clear up confusion about the discord
The patreon account linking essentially forces people to join the moment they sub, it doesn't give a choice, and I have to have it to have it auto apply roles.I get easily stressed by a large amount of people joining, so I paused invites for a bit for the major releaseThe base tier doesn't get invited, but the higher tiers do, it's just paused for a bit
3.1 Feature Poll
Wow! a feature poll!because 3.0 is released properly, that means that the hiatus on feature polls during the complete code refactor is over, and now you patrons can now vote on what features to prioritize again (yay!)Remember, these aren't minecraft mob votes, everything I list in one of these polls, I do genuinely want to add in, these polls are merely a judgement of what to prioritize most during development!Now, of course this has been, ov...
3.0 Release!
Hey there! Its ready! Its stable! Its going to have a public release sometime in the following week once I choose somewhere to host it, or get my own site up.Changelog (from 2.8)removed everythingput everything back inBugfixesYes???????more in depth changelog pending, maybe, if I feel like it For those updating from 2.8 you'll have to fill out settings on yourself and on NPCs again, the structure they're saved in is different as far as I ...
3.0x (Pre-Release)(real)(not fake)(definitive edition)(directors cut)(FINAL MIX)
wow was the last letter I uploaded here 'o' well, huh, anyway, over the past few weeks, one letter per week we've went through pqrstuvw and now we're at x, as for why they weren't getting uploaded, the issues were getting so small and I wanted to iterate through them so fast I was basically posting minor versions on discord every one or two days, in the more recent ones sometimes I was posting twice in a single dayduring '...
Very very close to release
So this past month I have essentially been doing a new test version every 2-3 days and that was way too frequent for me to be spamming patreon posts but as of now I feel it’s incredibly close to being done proper, as every feature is in and I don’t need to program anything new in, it’s just testing and fixes and testing and fixesLast night we did the first major multiplayer test and found a few large issues that have now been corrected and ...
Been forgetting to put the weeklies here the past few weeks
However, y'all should be happy to know as far as I can tell, it's basically entirely stablepretty soon we should have a pre-release version where everything intended feature wise is done, and it's just a once over for people to try for bugs, though there shouldn't be very manyI'll try to be better about posting on more than the discord
Just gonna ramble out some thoughts
better keep people in the loop for what the general goings on are and what the roadmap isputting a link to 2.8's post because I'm replacing the pinned with this posthttps://www.patreon.com/posts/sbq-2-8-stable-89286306So, 3.0 is quite close to being done, for the past few months it has been, rewriting every single thing in the mod from basically the ground up while also modifying my own build of starbound's engine to use alongside iti...
Minor apologies
I want to just issue a general apology to people who DM me with issues or comment with issues here and I miss them because patreon is absolutely terrible with notificationsI barely ever see the important notifications when I get any such messages because patreon does not separate notification types, it just jumbles them all together with (what feels like) hundreds of subscribe and unsubscribe and like notifications I get basically every single da...
SBQ 3.0o wip (getting close to final)
the last major coding task to be done is re-implementing the NPC hunting behavior, which should be so much simpler than the one in the old system since I won't need to spam entity messages to determine someone's prefs and if they're a valid target and all, so it should be far less prone to failure and NPCs trying to do something when they can't actually do itregardless, that's the task for next week, as well as fixing much of ...

SBQ Weekly 3.0l
final stretch, I do think I'm going to be finished sometime in aprilengine changes this week were pretty minimal, I only needed to fix a bug where monsters and npcs weren't having the status effect source set from lounge effects which was messing up the script with digest effect, as well as them not being cleared when dismountingasset changes this week were mainly bug fixes, but there were a few new thingsAny compatible NPC can have a set...

SBQ Weekly 3.0j
Firstly, going to note known issues before people tell me about themin most contexts, NPCs are going to say they're missing dialogue, this is fine, I just need to do a restructure to the dialogue tree again (this time won't take several weeks since it's minor changes)anyway, as per usual, engine changes firstInstance worlds can load a copy of a terrestrial world thats included within the mod assets, what does this mean? it means for t...
SBQ 3.0ib Wip
Alright, I haven't posted for over a week because the ADHD keeps getting to me and also I was sick so that messed me up but all good now Anyway, as per usual Engine changes firstos.date() was added to the lua whitelist, I'm not sure why it wasn't since os.time() was already available, which can be used to figure out the date with a bit of math, regardless, this just removes some tedium Persistent entities will no longer delete themsel...
So, Starbound is a well made game
Making a separate post just so people seeTurns out starbound probably does something funky and unexpectedly different when a mod is packed into a .pak and when it’s a folder something I’ll look into come Monday Which would finally explain why so many times, things work fine for me, and then suddenly don’t work when I post them for other people, because I work with it as a folder, I release things packedIf you’re dead set on trying out thi...
SBQ Weekly 3.0h
Edit: so to have this function how it functions for me, you have to extract the .pak files I have you put in the mod folder, starbound sure is a well made game that works consistently:)This one seems mostly stable, still not everything there yet, but if you were hesitant to be using the past weeklies because of them fucking things up incredibly, I think we're probably past that by nowEngine side, just fixed script panes like the prey hud to a...
