    Hey guys I am hosting factions right now and I have some ideas about how I would like to change it.

    Better weapons
    Bison that attack enemies but leave the owning team alone
    Some new resources (to make trade interesting)
    Being able to relocate your faction building (you have about 1 minute to replant or your faction dies)
    Adding eagles (spriting and AI already done)

    PM me about it.

    I would like to send money in stages. After every task is completed.

    The payments obviously wont be huge. But I think they would be a nice little reward for getting a cool ass mod improved.

    @daskew87 this isn't the 1st time you have asked something like this. i think instead of paying for others to mod, why not pay for yourself to get taught how?(even though you can do it for free) It's a lot more fun making mods that you want to make (not that i have, but making games with game maker is really fun as long as you don't run out of ideas)

    what did you expect, it's a KAG mod... obviously coded with KAG's modding system

    Bison teaming would not be hard to create, however unless the devs add tile creation support, blob blocks are just way to messy to deal with. Spark trees and other things like trees would work. I am currently working on "better weapons" for say and if someone is going to edit and modify my equipment system I would like them to talk to me first. If eagles are already coded and sprited then its just copy and paste right?

    Idk dask, I think what people like about this mod is how close to vanilla it is. Complexity isn't always the answer. I would be willing to help with weapons and the bison teaming for free, but the other thing you are going to have to teach yourself or get someone else.

    Just FYI, this already exists, its just hard to work with and under-documented. All of the tiles in TR are added with scripts, not engine-side code. The hard part is realising that there's no "tile HP" and that you're going to have to write all of the hit logic; collisions, rendering and solidity are handled though.

    +1 to dask for this initiative either way.

    Okay well this thread has given me some options.

    I would be very happy if some people flagged up more potential modders.

    FLAG DEM MODDERS!

    Sorry for the delay on getting back; been a busy week so far :)

    Proper documentation here is a lot of work - @8x has already got custom tiles working for his waste kind mod so he's the one to ask in the short term. I'm happy to answer any specific questions ("how do we work around x issue?") but don't have time at the moment to write up the whole thing start to finish ("how to make custom tiles"), especially as there's a lot of different ways to approach the problem and there's already a few working code examples around (the most complete one being TR's map system)

    I did this small tutorial for implementing tiles into the map loaders.

    https://forum.thd.vg/threads/implementing-custom-tiles-not-blobs-at-the-map-loaders.25694/

    PROBLEMS with custom tiles are mainly that they don't offer a reliable support as vanilla tiles do, and I couldn't manage to make them buildable ingame, destructible, or mineable.
    For those who know some more coding, check TrenchRun. Also, you can do plenty of stuff like autotiling (I wasn't capable of coding despite the dedicated help from Skinney).
