SoftCoreLite

This mod provides a db.ts script which included some very basic SPT database related utility functions aimed to help modders with nudging the SPT's server data. Alongside some other small features.

SoftCoreLite

This is a personal mod project for SPT inspired by mods listed in the Credits at the end.

The initial goal was to consolidate and fine-tune some features of other mods into one for my own enjoyment(instead of having to bother the original authors for updates and deal with features I didn't need or whatnot).

The goal now is to share the utilities I wrote within this mod to help other modders with SPT's database.

What this mod does:

The collection of things I fine-tuned for my own enjoyment:

Everything can be turned-off using the config.json

• My own implementation configuration of [Health Per Level]
  HP of body parts does not increase per level, rather:
  • Body part gets bonus HP per set amount of levels
  • Each body part gets a set amount of bonus HP to balance it out over the levels
• Two features of [ODT-Softcore]
  • Reconfigured stash sizes to [64, 96, 128, 160]
  • Re-discover all items (Unexamine all items)
• Filter the special slots to hold 1-slot med kits and etc instead of all kinds of bigger medkits. [SpecialSlots]
  Plan to update this to a generative function that scans the entire post-mod-database for 1-slot med items so this can work for meds added by other mods
• Make Bot(Cultist) no longer silent or cold to thermals(Experimental) [HotCultists]
  • They are no longer silent for sure, but whether they are cold to thermal scopes requires testing

But most importantly:

Some basic and rudimentary database tools/ID workarounds of SPT

(Make sense of these damned IDs)

• Skeleton code of a more-automated item cloning feature driven by data
  • Modified item cloning functionalities of [SPT-Realism] to add the following as a proof of concept (no new models or textures).
    • 13-round magazine for TT
    • 12-round magazine for PM
    • 10-round magazine for Gornostay
  • Currently only deals with individual items/weapon mods.
  • Seem to work with [Algorithmic Level Progression]
  • Since item cloning ultimately is only done once at the server load, performance implication of this is going to be ignored. I also do not have an excess of knowledge to write performant code. I only know to perform massive loops or recursions as few times as possible.
• Skeleton code of post-mod-database item-property rebalancing feature
  • Currently, only the Ammo Load/Unload speed of all magazines are being rebalanced.
  • The negative effect is "LERPed" to max out at about 20%, and positive effect is unaffected.
• Database debugging utilities
  • These functions in db.ts helps modder make sense of SPT's JSON data structure and provides basics for automating/simplifying some database related activities such as the two features described above
  • I'm personally proud of the names I've given to the grow() function and I will hear no alternatives.
  • This is likely to be heavily affected when SPT's database-structure changes

Plans to automate the weapon pre-set creation for any modded-weapons so the Weapon Mastering skill page shows the fully modded weapons instead of just the core component of the modded weapons.

I hope this helps.

Load Order:

• (any mod that adds or changes item properties)
• SPT-Realism,
• SVM,
• SoftCoreLite,
• Algorithmic* mods
• MoreCheckmarksBackend

Thanks to everyone that shared their code openly so others can learn.

And obviously,

Thanks to SPT-AKI for giving us an opportunity to truly enjoy EFT.

SPT 3.7.6

....

I was about to ask but then the new update fixed the issue.

My SPT suddenly didn't allow me to mount any scopes on the SKS UTG SOCOM mount's scope slot and only allowed me to put tac combo devices.

It was one hell of a bug to figure out which mod was causing it.

Didn't help that I was taking inspiration of how Realism mod added all the custom items and how the attachments were pushed to the filters and I thought I f***ed something up with my own mod.

LOL

This mod should have a config option to exclude a list of specific items' trade offers from being randomly generated.

Thank you for your awesome mod, as always.

Anyone having issues should try to update SPT to 3.6.0 Hotfix 3 - Yes there are 3 hotfixes that you need to manually apply (or reinstall using the SPT installer). Maybe the issues will disappear.

I have a suggestion for Active Aim.

Make the transition between Active Aim and ADS smoother and faster than normal stance ADS because... ahem... "Active Aim"...

Currently:

• Active Aim consumes Stamina because it's treated like ADS. - but not really.
• The transition from Active Aim to normal ADS takes a lot longer due to how the animation plays out. Making it pointless to use Active Aim when there isn't any helmet to block ADS. (For long guns - ADS from Active Aim with Pistols are smooth as butter and fast)

It only makes sense for any assault weapon to have some ADS speed benefit from an "Active Aim" stance. ADS from Active Aim being slower than normal stance ADS is quite confusing.

PS: First-person games always have guns in unnatural positions.

Quote from Fontaine

It caused an error and changing the level does nothing at all so I scrapped it to work on better things.

I don't see a way a bug like that could suddenly come back like that, like with any bug without steps to reproduce it there's nothing I can do.

First thing to do when having mod trouble is to try the mod by itself to make sure it's not conflicting with another.

Should I single out the client mods as well?

Hello Fontaine,

The newest update on Realism seems to cause the process of creating a new character to fail.

It happens precisely at/after this message in the terminal:

[Client Request] /client/handbook/templates

Here is the Error:

I have singled out Realism Server Mod and can confirm it is Realism Mod causing this - Unless it's a conflict between a Client mod and Realism.

Could you help me understand what might be wrong?
