After playing with xpath the past few weeks, I thought I would share some of the changes I've been making to my game. Most of this is geared towards mining, building, world spawns, damage control. But you could easily edit them to your needs.

All mods work with A17.1 B9.

xCrossHair

This is an extrenal app I made that draws a crosshair on the screen with options for size, thickness, color and a hotkey to toggle the display. This runs outside the game and does not alter any game files. Here is a link to the forum post with screen shots.

Doubles Headshot and Motherlode values."

Does this work with guns/arrows and melee attacks? And from what value to what?

 
Wow I just spent a lot of time doing a bunch of these same things. I could have saved the effort and used your mods instead. :smile-new:

Nice job!

 
Thanks, I'm enjoying myself playing around with xpath lately.

The headshot mod increases ranged headshot damage from "0.2, 1" to "0.50, 3" and the chance to burst heads from "0.05, 0.15" to "0.10, 0.30". If you open it in a text editor, you could easily enter whatever range you like. I could add optional melee headshot damage if that is what your looking for.

 
I tried starting a sp game to see how the rubble building remover worked. And it didnt seem to work at all? I exported configs from the running game, and no mention in the rwgmixer that anything was edited by the mod.

 
I had my doubts about that one myself, its a WIP as I try to strip those out. Thanks for the feed back, will look into it more.

 
When you unzip the folder, all the folders that start with "Xajar_" get dropped into

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Mods.

If your new to XML take a look at https://www.w3schools.com/.

This sticky post explains how to use xpath to change the xml files.

Get yourself a good text editor like Notepad++, and take a look at xml files in the mods to see how things are done.

I messed around with different codes trying to get that to work, including uisng the "set xpath" command to set the spawn percentage of the rubble buildings to 0, but was not able to make anything happen. It should absolutely be possible, but I was not able to get it working with my limited experience with xpath.. I do think that with the current rwgmixer layout, that you have to target each of the sections containing those buildings, like prefab_rule[@name=industrial_MpWasteBldgs] before inserting the contains(@name,'waste_').

 
I messed with it more tonight, and I'm just unable to remove prefab nodes, i can remove nodes in other xmls. This throws no errors but doesn't remove any nodes.

<remove xpath='/rwgmixer/prefab_rules/prefab_rule[@name=residentialOldGroup]/prefab[@rule=oldResidential_abandoned_Burnt_Homes]'/>

<remove xpath='/rwgmixer/prefab_rules/prefab_rule[@name=downtownGroup]/prefab[@name=mp_waste_bldg_governer_08]'/>

<remove xpath='/rwgmixer/prefab_rules/prefab_rule[@name=industrialGroup]/prefab[@rule=industrial_MpWasteBldgs]'/>

<remove xpath='/rwgmixer/prefab_rules/prefab_rule[@name=industrialGroup]/prefab[@rule=industrial_RubbleBldgs]'/>

<remove xpath='/rwgmixer/prefab_rules/prefab_rule[@name=industrial_RubbleBldgs]'/>

<remove xpath='/rwgmixer/prefab_rules/prefab_rule[@name=industrial_JunkyardsLots]'/>

 
Pretty sure you need to replace and reverse some your quote types for double/single and vice-versa:

<remove xpath="/rwgmixer/prefab_rules/prefab_rule[@name=residentialOldGroup]/prefab[@rule=oldResidential_abandoned_Burnt_Homes]"/>

Doubles Headshot, SkullCrusher and Motherlode values.

Is the double headshot damage on by default or do you need to put points into skull crusher for that? Confused there since the descriptions of mother lode and skull crusher are the same?

You need to put points into the perks, and it doubles the default values of each level of the perk you buy.

What's double headshot then? Is it seperate than skullcrusher or is that the same thing since that's what the perk does?

Headshots is the name of the perk that increases ranged head damage.

SkullCrusher is the name of the perk that increases melee head damage.

Ohhh, Boom Headshot. Got you, then the perks instead of 20, 40, 60 etc for each are 40, 80, 120 etc. correct?

 
@ Xajar From b238 patch notes: Limited rubble buildings in industrial areas

I spent not an insignificant amount of time yesterday trying to get the rubble modlet working :p

The joys of modding a game that now updates every other day :topsy_turvy:
