[MOD REQ] Villages


MaximilianPs

Recommended Posts

I guess if it would possible to spawn villages just like the game spawn abandoned houses.

 

The idea is to spawn small villages, (3 or 4 houses) with NPCs that could be friendly or hostile and them could ask to the player to clean dungeons or sell goods.

I can help with Unity, I'm pretty experienced in game design and... stuff, but I'm not able to create a mod like this by my own, so I'm looking for buddies that can help with the harderst part. :happy:

Great idea. I wrote a mod for Minecraft that spawned some friendly villages that had loot. I couldn't have done it though if I hadn't copied some similar code from someone else.

 

I'd like to see this added, but at this point I am just learning harmony. I haven't done any Unity yet. Doesn't seem like I'd be of much help.

 

If I was working on this, I'd first try and get ahold of the source to one of the mods that spawns in fully built buildings. You could build the villages in game, capture them, and then spawn them into the game in random locations using that code. You would then need to figure out how to spawn the villagers and add AI to them.

Problem is that I have no idea on how code it, and no time to study ... at least at the moment :-\

Some people are great at reading through all the code in a game and figuring out how stuff is done. They then just duplicate that code in their own mod and modify it slightly to their needs. I'm pretty good at taking someone who already has that code they modified and modifying it more to do something slightly different. Not great at creating that first mod though. There are some mods out there already that take a building, store its design and place it in a new location.

 

One of my favorite villages to come across is the one with the draugers in it. It is like a village of the dead. Even copying how the game generates one of those would make a nice mod that generates them in more locations. I've played a number of maps (worlds), but have only seen one of those type of villages at most. The game could use a few more, as they give you stuff before you would normally be going into the swamp. An added challenge. Other like that would be a nice addition to the game.

 

This forum doesn't seem like the best place to find a programmer. I suggest you try this discord:
