I've finally merged the format-21 PR :)


Hooray! Now I can-


Exception in thread "main" net.syntactickitsune.furblorb.io.FurblorbParsingException: Attempt to access enum constant 82 which does not exist (enum: net.syntactickitsune.furblorb.finmer.asset.scene.SceneNode$Type, using BYTE number ...

would it also solve your use case if the combat system gets built-in support for elemental weaknesses?


I think that'd solve it, yeah. I originally wrote that request from the what's the least possible change needed from the engine to support this perspective (back before any of the furball ...

Here's the semi-long-awaited thread containing my various feature requests for things actually usable in modules . (Called wishlist because let's be honest none of these are gonna be terribly high-priority.)

Let's start with a simpler one:

More combat hooks

This one's pretty simple, at least ...

Alright, that PR has now been created. After that I believe the only two changes left in this area are downsizing some enums (which likely requires a method to pick sizes based on version -- could be useful infrastructure in case any enums need to be resized later) and the optional-not-so-optional ...

they're marked protected internal to be precise, so they are not visible outside the source assembly.


Ah, unfortunate. In that case yeah they'd just have to be re-implemented.


The question then is how to expose that to the IFurballContentWriter interface


For exposing them there's probably ...

I can bump the forum upload size if needed


I don't think there's a huge need to bump the upload size (at least right now), since the only thing it's preventing is like, redistributing modified versions of the core module (which won't be as much of a problem with compression). I don't imagine ...

you can also change a creature's Strength stat to int32_max and then watch the game try to render two billion dice


I think there is still a difference between this (which results in a hard crash) and rendering two billion dice (which results in a frozen game), although I suppose the end result ...

So the first thing I want to talk about is the previously mentioned furball GZIP compression. I did manage to get a C# implementation together, which can be found here . This implementation is designed to be completely unnoticeable by both anyone using this class and also e.g. people using the ...

Another question: which subforum would be a good place for the aforementioned furball optimization thread? I thought about putting it in "Feedback & Bugs" although I'm not sure if that's the perfect spot for it. I imagine the other option is putting it in this subforum, although that'd be my third ...
