StayClear (No Sleeper Respawn) [A19 tested]

UPDATE: A20 version here

This is the A19 version of my mod that removes sleeper respawning from the game after you've finished clearing a building, a mechanic I've never cared for, as it doesn't allow you to have the enjoyable progression of being able to clear out towns, nor do I feel like it's entirely immersive to expect all the buildings to constantly be completely refilled.

The mod should function the same as the original, except now it's been updated to support Harmony 2/the latest version of DMT.

Download this mod for A19

This mod requires DMT in order to use it. If you don't know how to use DMT, watch this short video guide or visit the forum thread.

If you encounter any issues or need any help, please let me know!

Worked like a charm.  Thank you so much for taking the time to update this.  It's really appreciated.
I'm glad to hear that. Hope you enjoy it. I'm only sorry it took me months. I hadn't realized people had commented on my old thread. Feel free to shoot me a PM if this breaks in the future. I'm more likely to see it that way.

 
could i check do I just drag the harmony folder into my mods folder within 7d2d like other modlets?

Oh and does it need new game or will it work when added to existing save game?

Hey. This mod requires DMT in order to use it. If you are using a client that has DMT pre-applied (such as if you are using an overhaul like Darkness Falls or Undead Legacy), you need only to put the mod in your mods folder. If you are not using DMT, then you will need to download DMT, create a mods folder somewhere outside of the game folder where you will put all the mods you want to use (your current existing ones and mine), and then you will use DMT to manage your mods. In DMT settings, you would input the path of the new mod folder you created along with the path of your install folder, and then you'd press the build button and then you'll be good to go. Please let me know if you run into any issues or need help setting it up.

You do not need to start a new game, my mod will work with any existing game. If you visit a POI, provided that you have fully cleared it in the past, nothing should respawn. This should not conflict with any quests or anything, but feel free to let me know if you run into any issues.

I'd be happy to hear back from you here if you get it working successfully!

You're welcome! I hope that you enjoy it.

The folder structure should be something like
7 days to die directory/Mods/StayClear/ModInfo.xml

7 days to die directory/Mods/StayClear/Harmony/StayClear_SleeperVolume_UpatePlayerTouched.dll

Great got it.. File structure looks good. Thanks again. Essential mod for me

 
Nice mod :)

I wonder if it possible to change it to set respawn delay yo 15 days instead of disabling?
I see in your mod this setting, can this be tweaked to 15 days?
___respawnTime = _world.worldTime + 120000UL;

I'm afraid that won't work. My mod resets the respawn time each time you visit a POI, so that the sleepers don't respawn. The reason I have it set to an interval like that is so that if you remove the mod, the POIs will have the same respawn time as if you had never used the mod before, effectively returning things to normal.

Just wanted to update and say all working great. Appears to have sorted out sleepers once cleared POI. Essential mod for me otherwise respawning sleepers kills immersion. Thank you so much dude !

 
newb question (I'm not a newb, I swear!)

does this work on a dedicated server?

(even more generally newbish) do any/all DMT mods work on dedicated servers?

besides my ignorance, this is an AWESOME addition to the community collection!

Glad you enjoy it! I agree that sleeper respawn hurts immersion, and it irked me so much that I needed to make this. I've been really enjoying clearing places out with this in place, and I hope you have too!

If the server is modded to have DMT in place, DMT mods will work just fine on dedicated servers. I have tested this mod and other DMT mods I've made on dedicated servers and it's fine. I hope you've been able to successfully use the mod.

Sorry for the late replies.

 
Can we only use DMT for this mod? I mean do a "build" only for this mod and leave my other mods in the game mods folder? I'm having issues with my other mods, DMT is updating things without my consent while my mods are working fine and don't need this. Also some of my mods are created by others and improved by me, I don't want DMT to come in there!

There is even a mod that is not supported by DMT at all "Admin Skill Points"

 
Awesome because of this DMT I tried to load a game when half of my mods were no longer installed, my save is screwed up, thanks guys really! I did not see that the build had not succeeded ... @%$#ing bogus the system ... 4et4e5ezhtfftdhz

And with the game launched on DMT we can no longer make screenshots, this tool is a game breaker. Please make this mod without the need for DMT !!!

Do I really have to run the game with DMT or just use build once and then I can run my game from steam?

If you load your mods including this one with the Mod Launcher you won't need to mess with DMT as the launcher handles that complexity.  If you don't want the launcher auto updating your edited mods then uncheck auto updates.

 
This mod has become a must for our little community. Please, tell me there are plans to update it when A20 comes out. Otherwise, we may skip A20. Lol. Love this mod!
