Darkness Falls: They mostly come out at night...

My solution for early-game-lack-of-watch was to just look at the Sun's position.  I'd estimate it's progress to or from the horizon relative to being overhead (Noon).If you're in a building, just look out a window.  You can sort of do the same at night with the position of the Moon or the light of dusk/dawn.  During a cloudy day it can be a bit tough, but it's usually pretty clear where the sun is behind the clouds.  It was super effective, so I don't often use a watch even when I could make one.

20.5 -> 20.7 is 100% a save break.

Why are you still on 20.5 after this many months? That save should've been done and updated to 20.6 (which IS safe going to 20.7) ages ago.

Dang.

That's because we are dumb casuals that only play like once a week, 100% our fault.

Love the mod, keep up the good work. Loved your involvement with the Neebs guys.

It's a mod for gloves that shows the time permanently, as long as you wear it.

Yes, I didn't mention that it is indeed a mod for gloves. Once installed in the glove, and the glove is worn by the player, game time is constantly shown on the player's display.

And as far as editing the XML to turn on Trader protection, I can almost guarantee that KhaineGB will avoid offering assistance. Why? Firstly, because he wants Trader protection off, and secondly he hasn't the time nor inclination to tutor someone in editing the XML. You might want to start a new thread under the MODS heading and ask for help with that one. And I wouldn't know where to start.... Good luck mate 👍

Don't give up! Post a request in the "Discussions and Request" part of this forum. There are many people who maybe can help you. I think if your post is "Help with time and traders in Darkness Falls" and you explain what you want, someone could help. Hao ma?

 
Okay, I don't care about the clock, but can someone here tell me what exactly to change in the code so that traders are protected as before?

Try changing the following line in the POI files for each trader - Never done this before so not sure if this is the method of turning trader protection on/off

What Khaine has set it to

  <property name="TraderAreaProtect" value="-41,0,-40" />




What vanilla is set to

  <property name="TraderAreaProtect" value="20,0,20" />




The files will be xml files and start with trader_NAMEofTRADER.  Each trader has their own file.

I don't know if this is still an issue, but Khaine has suggested in the past that this will lead to NRE's and crash the game. However, that was when there were guards and a guard captain in the Traders. Unsure if the White River Scout fits into that now, but probably.

 
I don't think it breaks the game.

You know what you could do? LEAVE THE TRADERS ALONE.

They have 25k hp walls. If it gets destroyed, it's entirely your own fault.

Yeah, I guess not. It was an old statement you made in December 2020 on your discord about not turning protection back on as it would crash the game because of the "guards, guard captain, survivors and bandits". That was probably A19 as well.

Minor Journal Bug:
The Security and Survivalist classes say "gains +1" for their crafting tiers, but the other classes say "gains +10" in their class completion text.
 

 
 What is the quest id\name for meeting Razor, or is there a way to reset The White River Rep\Quest line?

I think I found it <quest id="whiteriver_visit_razor"> Though I am worried when I get there he will not trust me even though Whiteriver rep is 50.

 I messed up when we first started our server and used Pregen6k instead of DFPregen6k.  So I learned how to move our base and Characters with Skills and Levels intact. I found how to give the Find Anna quest but not how to meet Razor and the white river scouts don't offer anything under "Do you Have any other work". I don't want to wipe the Factions file completely though.

Shamelessly stolen from the FAQ: You can use the following commands to give yourself the quest (requires admin) For Razor (given by the white river scout after doing 10 missions for her): givequest whiteriver_visit_razor

  When I gave myself the whiteriver_visit_razor he does offer additional work but no open trade routes yet trying to do a couple quick quests for him to test if anna pops up.

 Also is there a way as Admin I can give others the quest or just give it to myself then share quest as normal?

  So I can get our game back on track with the givequest and party share quest one list issue not Darkness falls doing but mistake I made moving our base over.

Looks like I destroyed all inventory in the storage chests of our base, I knew they world be empty in the new world but when I went and loaded the old world to go "Pack for the move" all the chests are empty. 

  Pretty sure this is the result of using the save poi function and since I was not smart enough to make a back up copy before messing with the world file\map everything is gone forever.
