Outdated Starstructor, the Starbound toolset 0.7.5145.12730

Kel^ updated Starstructor, the Starbound toolset with a new update entry:

Changelog v0.6.5116.33465

Read the rest of this update entry...

 

Most of the stuff this update was done by heinermann, who has been working diligently on the project since I made the source public. I'm out of action until the 17th of this month, at which point I'll be able to begin working properly on Starstructor again. Here's a screenshot of the UI improvements:

I've also created the IRC channel ##starstructor on Freenode which provides an avenue for easy support and discussion. http://chat.mibbit.com/?channel=##starstructor&server=irc.freenode.net

 

Okay so! New version, nice new UI, can't seem to open my Felin village any more, though the two Avian dungeons I've tried work fine.

Here's the .dungeon file in question for your perusal, and I'd like to mention that, to make the various custom objects appear (and even then only a few ever did) I've temporarily moved them from /mods to /assets.

 

Is there any way you could provide me with the full dungeon? (including the part images, etc.) I can load the dungeon without issue when I remove all the parts from the dungeon file, and all your custom brushes are showing up correctly - so I need the part images to replicate the crash. Also there should be a log.txt file in your Starstructor folder, could you attach that too? Thanks!

 

Ah yes, the part images. My bad! And here's the log.

From what I can tell it doesn't like the felinhologram's use of leftImage and rightImage, even though the images refered to are present.

 

You're crashing because there aren't frames present for object images felinhologramleft and felinhologramright. If you provide a felinhologramleft.frames and felinhologramright.frames, it should work. All of the base game objects provide a frames file for each image. In the next release, I'll make it search for a default.frames and load that for any frames that aren't defined for each object image provided.

Regarding your earlier point about the mods folder -- you should now be able to keep your mod in /mods/, and Starstructor will automatically load your assets from there as well.

 

That's cool, cos the game certainly doesn't seem to agree with Starstructors present behavior. I did notice the beanbag chairs aren't invisible any more.

I noticed as much. It's great.

Keep up the good work!

 

Yeah, the reason for this is that up until now, every object I've run into had used separately defined frames. I didn't even know default.frames was a thing. So thanks for educating me!

 

Downloaded the latest update. It breaks the dropship.structure file though... I can see that it edits the file quite wrong, for instance it removes the position and changes other things too... here is how the file looks after I have saved the file through Starstructor:

I'm helpful!

What is saved incorrectly here?

 

There is no longer a position for the backgroundOverlay for instance

After the save, I can't open the file with starstructor or create a character in game

 

I'm away from the computer at the moment so I can't investigate, but I should be able to make a quick release soon disabling ship saving until I can fix it properly.

edit: update posted below, I had to build it on a very old version of Visual Studio. Let me know if it works!

 

Kel^ updated Starstructor, the Starbound toolset with a new update entry:

Changelog v0.6.5117.25717

Read the rest of this update entry...

 

WTB Mac version QQ.

 

I just finished fixing the issues @Shadewarp and @Kawa reported.

@Shadewarp There was something wrong in the properties set for json serialization, and it though the position was a default value. This has been fixed.
@Kawa There was a problem where it wasn't recognizing the default direction for the object brush. This has been fixed. If you want it to work in the previous version you will have to set a direction for the dungeon brush containing your object (ie: direction="left").

Currently working on some internal things. Once I create some editor for brush rules and such, we'll be able to add brushes/objects to the dungeon from a grand list. We can probably already do this but without those extra options it will be too limited for practical use. I'm going to make more properties editable over time as well.

EDIT @Kawa Actually that might not work, that was the issue in the latest build, where frames load correctly.

 

so im trying to use this mod... someone wanna tell me why i can't start a new ship/dungeon? Its greyed out and i set the directory to assets and nothing happens, tried refreshing/restarting the application and no fix, any suggestions anyone?

 

Because creating a new file hasn't been implemented yet.

 

Heya, awesome mod!
Without it i wouldn't be able to make new dungeon mods, thx =)

Liked to report a bug:
If i try to add the copperladder.material to the .dungeon file, i am getting an OutOfMemoryException from starstructor.
I am working on a template.dungeon which contains all allests from the game, so from the materials this is the only one causing this exception.

Maybe it is because it has only 1 frame? idk

Here is the errLog if it is of any use for you:

Is there any way you could provide me with the template .dungeon file? I have a feeling this will be fixed in the next release anyway, with the asset loading rework, but I want to make sure . . .
