Hello, if you could open a thread about it and show the relevant images about the issue, I would gladly help you.

We are giving this a try in a Zomboid roleplay server I help run. We're having some issues. For some players it simply doesn't work and gives an error no matter what we do, and for others it will dramatically level up people just hanging out near the player shooting the gun. Of note we are using Guns of 93 so maybe There's a conflict there? I also have a suspicion that it doesn't work with controllers/steam deck.

Thank you!

A lot, but i think the problem was a particular mod. All good on your end sir

@Cheaplove I'm sorry, how many mods are you running it besides?

Any idea's how to fix this error?

@Mayo, it might be due to your general xp boosters or Sandbox settings values, you can add me and show if you'd like to.

mod is p broken, I get absurd amounts of XP when using it

i have this from errormagnifier (x6). not sure what triggered this

Maybe try opening your save with debug mode, press F11, type "Aim" in the input box on the right, find UVLearnToAim.lua or something similar, double click on it and then click reload file. I am not sure if this will fix it but maybe worth giving a try if nothing else helps.

It was working fine at first, but I disabled it to play another file. After enabling it again it didn't work. This is probably caused by the game itself not the mod, but does anyone know how to fix it? Thx!

I think you can just keep it as an option if you can! That'd be really cool to be able to "teach" fellow people to shoot :D

I will try my best to solve it, thank you so much.

WE FOUND OUT THE ISSUE


When one person shoots at a thing, and another does so, any shooting the first person does transfers to the partner.


I kinda like this! It's like you're learning, but I think it should be "If you have higher aiming, you cannot. If you have the higher aiming you give the other person a learning buff, like you're teaching them."

That makes a lot of sense but since I don't have a controller myself I sadly don't think I can do it. Though feel free to fix it if you can.

Is it possible to make this compatible with controllers? With a mouse you can just click the mannequin's tile and everything works, but with a controller joystick you can only aim in a direction and it never seems to register.

I don't think so, because the system only counts for the mannequins that are in the same floor as you.

Will do. We were at the museum mod location, shooting towards its lowet floor garage entrance. Perhaps there are mannequins in it?

Interesting, I'd like to see the picture of it if you can manage to get the same outcome again.

We had the text popping up on me when my friend was shooting at a zombie. That was weird...

Works with any firearm mod because this mod uses its own algorithm regardless of any mods, it works with any trajectory mod as well because of the same reason.

Do Bee-Ar's BB guns work for this?

Yes

does this work on existing saves?

Engi Man, the astonishing explanation of yours really opened my mind into a new world and a new perspective, I have never thought anybody would be able to back up their ideas and beliefs in such a Socratic, concise and spot-on method. Therefore, I can't do anything but salute and hail you for leading us towards a new and most probably a better world, Engi Man.

The idea being shooting this still object over and over again would provide experience. And it would give hope and accomplishmeng from the lodged bullets that has been shot to this mannequin. It is consistent, and it did not have any fragility. This has revolutionized the project zomboid experience providing services. I salute you UV. You gave us the liberty to shoot at mannequins instead of fragile zombies and humans. Glory.

This mod really innovates the idea of "shooting mannequins" Because of the thought process behind consistently shooting "shootable like human objects". It would require knowledge about consistency and fragility. Almost everyone would propose the idea being "just shoot the zombies" but, it would halt after some time. Why? Because it is not consistent. They do not think about the fragility of those beings, some even shoot their friends over and over again just to get the proper amount of experience, but still, it does not provide a consistent source of said experience, because of the fragility of the mentality. The founder of this addon who is labeled as Ultraviolet, gets the idea of "shooting mannequins" after these complications.

You can add me on Steam or DC.

Sure thing, how can I send you the image?

Probably it's because I haven't added that specific model into the list. I'd appreciate that if you could send me an image of it.

Hmm. I stole a random mannequin from a clothing store but nothing appears when I shoot at it. Do I just pickup and place? That's all I need to do?

Well it's been quite a long time since I've last checked the mannequins in the game. I think it should include every mannequin but don't take my word for it.

Does this work with any mannequin? Or is there specific ones we need to find?

Well, it's not been like that for a long while. I'll try my best to fix it if it's a common problem though.

I think this mod is very unstable in MP.

-When there's no mannequin on sight your character will say miss randomly.
-My friend starts shooting nowhere but for whatever reason also hits the mannequin and (again) I also got the EXP.

BroDimm, it's odd. Have you tried clicking the play button on top to skip the error ? I don't think its game breaking but still needs to be fixed.

hello. got below in MP. not even trying to use the mod yet. no mannequin no shooting.

@AN-94, I've just released a hotfix, I'll be waiting for you to confirm that it helps.

@AN-94, it's weird, it didn't happen to me. I'll check it real quick.

Got a problem in multiplayer, when my friend starts shooting at the mannequin my shooting skill is also increased alongside with other players.

Well, I'm working on an update that'll have a training poster that can be nailed to walls. That way you'll be able to create your own training range.

i'm dumb....its just the mannequins...its in the photos

how do i find the range?

my bad then! thanks so much for this cool mod!

Well, I guess scarecrow mannequin just slipped from my mind. I'll add it to the compatible models soon.

hey, trying this out with the bb gun from brita's weapon pack, and it doesnt seem to be working against the scarecrow mannequin, any help? it's not giving aim skill or making special effects / noises etc.

thank you!!

You're welcome

Thank for the quick update!! :D

Fixed, I was very sleepy when publishing that update. Sorry about that.
