RELEASED RPG Growth 1.92

Well, glad it's not crashing anymore. Yea, I figure larger world sizes would certainly cause memory leaks and allocation issues, especially with how Starbound generates and loads planet chunks into memory. Hopefully it won't happen anymore, but I am always attempting to optimize my mod, and there's a lot more to be done in that regard. Hope you have fun playing

 

how do i open up this mods menus? is there something i need to set up or do i just skill stuff first?

Edit: nvm i had to craft the book ^^;

 

Is there any way to make stat scroll points permanent? if necessary, split the scroll into scrolls for each stat and then track the stats added via these scrolls separately but keep them even after prestige? Because right now you have to wait with your stat point scrolls until you basically know for sure you won't ever prestige again and that's a bit meh considering the mod is still getting new stuff.

I love that you're still working on this. I do have a question. Is it safe to just update the mod (not steam) by deleting the mod from the mod folder then replacing it with the updated version on the same character? I don't want to start over every time there's an update and a lot of mods can cause problems when updating without starting a new character, which is why I ask.

 

It's safe. Unfortunately, there's a bit of a bug, so I'm reuploading another version, 1.4c.

This mod sounds great from what I've read via the info file. I think I'll hold off though until a healer base class is added. If one is ever added anyway.

 

Well, Knight, and especially Paladin, can heal via Perfect Shields in some cases. Necromancer can heal via the Reap Tech. Rogue can heal via their Siphon Spore finisher. And Vanguard, the Explorer+Soldier Specialization can heal via getting kills with Danger Close, their Specialized Weapon. And on top of that, Vitality, a stat, raises Max Health. So, no specific Healer yet, but there are some avenues for self and team-healing.

 

Added CN More Farming Revitalization support: https://community.playstarbound.com/resources/cn-more-farming-revitalization-rpg-growth-addon.5516/

 

You aren't wrong, because I did see those. Unfortunately a lot of those classes go against type for me, as I'm a White Mage (read: healer) at heart. A support class that can heal and buff is almost always for me. Wizard does seem fun enough for me though. Looking at the mod as a whole though... I really wish you good luck in this going forward. This mod, in my opinion, really fixes the problem the makes Starbound boring, which is that all characters are the same, and that your gear defines you instead of accenting you. Maybe I'll just suck it up and play Wizard a bunch in the mean time.

 

Well, waiting is never a bad idea ever. I'll be adding a Cleric role for Wizards and Explorers, and there will be a Medic, Alchemist, and Bard Profession, both of which will provide self and team support. If you wait, though it might take a while, you'd be able to experience everything fresh and also get to be a Healer

 

Thanks for this! I will test this out later and add it to the Steam Description once I do so that people see it

 

I'm looking at the possibility of a Zerotap Dash plugin for RPG Growth, but it would have to come with a few additional edits normally outside of the scope of ZTDs: I'd have to change the activation for any skill using RPG Second Action (PlayerTechAction2), which activates abilities like the Explorer's dash/Sprint toggle, Knight's slam, and Ninja's Assassinate.

Does anyone have some ideas on what they would like to be using to activate these abilities? I haven't done a playthrough with RPG Growth before, so am not really sure how it would feel to change a number of the keybinds. Especially for veteran players this might be strange.

 

I swear I saw the mod's name somewhere either in this thread or the front page, but... what the heck is the mod you use for the additional side icons, ThornyFlora? I can't even find it with my crappy searching skills. Sorry, I hate to be that person. I've been looking around for UI mods that look like that, but can't find it.

 

Quickbar Mini, perhaps?
