I primarily make addons for the stalker mod Anomaly. I can generally be found hanging out in the #modding-development channel of the Anomaly Discord where I help new addon makers, learn from more experienced addon makers, collaborate on new addons, and sometimes take requests. My "Homepage" link is a Discord invite and my screen name there is also RavenAscendant 99% of the time. I am an english speaker but happy to use Google translate. If my mods/addons are missing in game translation or that translation is bad please feel free to suggest improvements.

no.
We don't make patches. We provided an instructional file in the zip and on the github.
The Bas patch was made by the EFP team we just included it in our installer.

that might make finding the bug easier.

That's possible. Crash actually takes 2 detections. One to trigger the save and one 5seconds after the save to trigger the crash.

If it wasn't a full lock up but just really laggy that could happen.

I will have to look at the disguise script.

But I don't see a smoking gun for your problem.

It is very close to an issue I used to see with WTF.

Do you have any task mods at all?

Probably because we don't have any keybinds in MCM for mags redux.

Shift click to unload mags/guns and alt click to add/remove mag from loadout are not changeable. Otherwise we have no keyboard interaction.

Ammocheck has its own MCM for its keybind.

i do not know what most of those fix addons are but i know this one was made by someone poking at random and only serves to let broken quest mods go unknoticed: "0152","+","xr_logic 491 LUA Crash Fix"

ppl that "fix" lua crashes without knowing what is actually causing them do more harm than good sometimes.

that would need to be in another spot. this code is responding to the mouse action, checking if shift is held,among other things, and doing an action.

just a key press is somewhere else.

It doesn't work in the little window in the center of the screen? Interesting.

When I look at that I look at adding non mag guns.

Shift click to remove mag from gun and ammo from mag is new feature.

So is support for advanced animations that make use of the modded exe motion mark callback changes.

Major bug fixes from the version you have:
Redux no longer chokes if a vanila gun has its caliber changed by a mod.

assorted bas kits no longer eat magazines.

Improved compatibility with advanced weapon mods that utilize weapon binder scripts.

Improved compatibility with quick scope addons.

there are other minor bugs i likely missed that are mixed in with "the bugs [we] added and slowly fix[ed]"

duplicate the configs/text/eng (or rus) folder and rename it whatever the german lang uses.

you could translate those files yourself. the german language pack ppl would probably take it as a submission if you do.

why edit item_backpack when arti built a library script that can be used to allow many mods to make this kind of change at the same time? if you edit item_backpack and i edit item back pack only one of our mods changes can be active at a time. Arti's script allows us both to make the change without stepping on each others toes.

i show how to check if item is in a quickslot set. if you simply don't want to drop any meds that is a differnt question and not directly realted to this mod. there is a function in anomaly called IsItem() that can identifiy items in a wide variety of catagories, see if one of those meets your needs.

however if you are not asking a specifically QSP question please try the anomaly discord. heck asking me QSP modding questions there is preferable as it is easier to communicate. THis place is really only good for bug reports and reviews.

Change log is a stretch, full list of changes is available tho in the form of pull request summaries.

we aren't doing a proper versioning with this project. we just publish a latest after branches are merged into the main repository.

all PRs have summaries and ofcourse line by line diffs.

it is basically impossible in the current engine. In theory i could create a new gun model for each magazine and sneaky swap the gun out. but there is a system like this for scopes already. that means if a gun uses 3 scopes and has 4 models for those and has 5 magazines that means creating and juggling 20 models for that one gun.

then every time someone adds a new magazine they would need to add 1-4 modesl for every gun that uses that magazine.

your game folder would be very boated with just gun models.

also i'd go insane trying to manage the code for this.

anomaly 1.6 is supposed to have a proper attachment system that will make this much simpler.

Assuming Arti and I rewrite mags redux for anomaly 1.6 and don't just run away screaming we will likely make use of that system if it is available, and someone does the actual modeling and animaiton work for us. we are nto artists.

If it isn't showing up in MCM then it isn't installed properly.

<anomalyinstallfolder>/gamedata/scripts/zz_companion_inventory_fix_mcm.script
<anomalyinstallfolder>/gamedata/scripts/rax_persistent_highlight.script

and the text strings in configs/text/<rus|eng>/ui_st_companion_inventory_fix.xml

manual copying of mod files is a recipe for frustration. I recommend using MO2.

if old world addon is built on anomaly then there is no reason i can thin for it not working. this addon requires the anomaly 1.5.1/1.5.2 companion and inventory ui to work.

even without that it should still show up in MCM.

find me on the anomaly discord. or open a thread in the addon support channel of the anomaly discord and tag me.

sure have this script in your scripts folder. Github.com

then in another script with lines like these no prmise that code i type in a comment is typo free or other wise working:

function mag_stash(item)
if is_slot_item(item) then return true end
end


actor_stash_patch.add_condition(mag_stash)

function is_slot_item(item)
for k,v in ipairs(rax_quick_slots_sets.slot_sets) do
for i, slot_section in ipairs(v) do
if item:section() = slot_section then return true end
end
end
end


the logic you want is a loop that goes is

arti updated it, but it will take a while for every addon to get updated, so you will be forced to make sure you have the fixed version, and not an old one from an older mod, active for a while.

Sounds like you have a mod that only wants you to have a mini map when you have a PDA, or a particular pda, and it isn't changing the option setting just the visibility and that makes this addon miss behave.

Also i misspoke, the mini map state as set by this addon should stay as last set when loading a save. It should only change when pressing the button, or changing the setting in the options.

that is not busy hands. it is just a crash. has nothing to do with me.

Also that is a modified smart_terrain.script so i couldn't help if i wanted to.

That would require recoding the way quick slot items get used which this doesn't do.

hmmm...
what a bout an item that looks like a stack of medkits, weakest on top, that when activated uses your weakest med kit. and one that looks like a stack of medkits, best on top, that uses your best medkit.

same for cigs, vodka.

idk what else, ideas?.

i'll template the system tho make it easy to expand.

any one that wants to implement this idea into a mod instead of wating on me is free to do so.

MO2?
JSGME?
