hoping this is made compatible with pups anywhere again :(

huh, i may be able to expiriment, but i have Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to many mods on rn XD

@GamerLED Hi ! I have not checked for compatibility with this mod, so I'm unsure. It really depends on how Genetic Slugpups makes its slugpups spawn
Though if the slugpups spawn directly within the shelter you inhabit, I suppose it's not necessarily useful for Where Slugpup to notify you anyway

does it work with gentic slugpups? bec when in a shelter with full food, a slug pup can some times spawn

Spent 30 cycles wasting my time only to find out after that Monk can never get slugpups for... some reason.
At least this mod saved me from checking every shelter on the map, cheers.

@mothmayo Glad that it works okay for the most part- though it's unfortunate that it seems to have issues post DLC
I'll try to take a look at it once I'm done playing Watcher- if you still have the full error message (or if you have anything in the exception log in your files), feel free to post that in the bug reports discussion

I downloaded the mod just a few days ago post mod list deletion for Watcher, and it worked fine. Located pups, drew me to them, it was fine, though just today it must've tweaked out, as it did something that seemed to make the game not remember that sluppies exist (Spawning them in sandbox via the sandbox pre-level spawner would crash the game. Unrendered level and all.) Trying to spawn them via dev console was similar. It would fill in the name, meaning dev console remembered pups, but finishing typing they wouldn't spawn, with an "error" message that again suggested sluppies weren't a thing. It's no big deal but it seems it's a bit weak on its knees post watcher

@5pebbleskisser not sure. either a slup never spawned or it didnt work. leaning on the former.

thank you!

@5pebbleskisser Unfortunately I am not sure if it is compatible with the update or not - I have not finished the watcher DLC yet so I haven't been able to check myself
Hopefully everything should still be ok !

@starkitten is it compatible with the update?

i should use this for watcher. dont wanna miss any sluggies!

Hey could we talk a little bit, i really wanna make your mod work with mine i think its pretty easy you just need to make SpawnPupNPCs public so i can use on my code.

@Spontaneite Odd- I'll try to look into it once I have a bit of time, though to be fair I haven't been able to mod in a while
I'll see what I can do

Regarding pups+, I'm not sure it does detect them. I've found two riv pups and one gourm pup from pups+ despite not having any notification from the mod. Legit unsure if mod is working for me since I have normal pup spawn odds set so low.

gimmie

omg yes.

anti pups + this mod + hunter

i saw this mod in a dream once

@ATi for me it notified me about a saint pup

This will definitely help me when I grind in Pipeyard for children.
Much appreciated.

Great mod.

Also, while i was in shoreline i got notified about a pup spawning in S13. I checked the map, and S13 is the precipice shelter (since the precipice is technically part of shoreline, a pup can spawn the if you are in shoreline). :(

@ATi I haven't tested this mod yet so I can't confirm anything- it depends on how pup+ spawns slugpups (if it uses the same spawning functions as the game or if it has its own)

Does it detect pups+ slugpups?

@fauxied I've had this happen to me too, but I've often found the pup had wandered off into another room. The mod says what shelter the pup spawned in, but doesn't track its current whereabouts. And sometimes a lizard or spider finds the pup before you do :(

ive been trying to use the mod but when a notifi comes up that a pup spawned, i go to the shelter to find the pup (its marker says its there btw) and its not there am i doin something wrong

@Justice It should be ? Could be simply due to low slugpup spawn % (or lack of luck, I spent nearly 6 cycles in a row in a 50% pup area and found nothing), or that you're accidentally playing in a no-pup campaign without the pup for everyone mod activated
If you're still not quite sure, you can look at the ConsoleLog.txt output (in the main RainWorld folder, you might need a mod to activate the ConsoleLog outputs as since the recent QoL update, nothing is displayed there by default) and check if a "slugpup was created" message spawned (this is a message generated by the game's base code- if you see it but didnt get an in-game notification, it means the mod broke, in which case I'll make sure to fix it)
(In the mean time, I'll also run a few tests)

Is this mod even working? I haven't got notified even once that there is slugpup in the region

@Pillow Gaming - Those are the room name, specifically the shelter names. The two letters indicate the region file name (example: SU - "SubUrban" - Outskirts), and the _s# indicates the specific shelter number. The Rainworld Interactive Map [rain-world-map.github.io] can really help to find where exactly the little fellows spawned, as it lists room names and is quite detailed!

what also SU_S01 or others means? i really didnt get it

it worked

i already ok i will active and also complete the quest

@Pillow Gaming By "extra mods" I mean mods like "pup for everyone" which cause pups to appear in all campaigns, even if you haven't completed gourmand's food quest

what u mean extra mods

@Pillow Gaming if no notification appears but you also find no slugpup either, it should be alright (just means you got unlucky and have found no pup yet in other campaigns)
(Slugpups only naturally show up in Gourmand, Hunter and Survivor's campaign when playing without extra mods)

no notification on other campaigns,just apear in the gourm

@Pillow Gaming That's odd- When you say that it is "just appearing", do you only see a notification in gourm's campaign (and then find a slugpup) but then find slugpups in other campaigns despite seeing no notification ? (or do you find no slugpup at all and no notification on other campaigns ?)

i already tried turning pups for everyone but didnt apear

@Pillow Gaming Are you using the pup for everyone mod or are you simply getting access to slugpups via Gourmand's food quest ? (It should technically work in any campaign as long as a pup can spawn there)

for me is just apearing in the gourmand

@Viruz I'm currently working a few things for v1.1.0 of the mod, but I'll probably try to have the overseer thing in v1.2 !

can you try to make it so that an overseer shows the way to the pup?

@vynnyal oh I'll be sure to add that in a small update ! Thank you for the recommendation !

is there any chance you could add a sound effect when a pup spawns? it took an embarrassingly long time to realize the reason the notification wasnt appearing was because i check how much time i have almost immediately, which dismisses the notification. oops

@dillotheshibe I can try ! Not sure how easy it'll be to implement such a thing but I'll keep the suggestion in mind !

Can you make it were it shows the distance to where the slug pup is?

thats strange, i found two pups in waterfront complex earlier as spearmaster with the pups for all mod. it might be alike to the wall with 2 pups in a cycle bug.

@dr patate When I was testing my mod, I had Pups for everyone + 100% pup spawn chance both enabled, and even in the game's logs it stated that only one pup (per cycle and per region) had been created
Though sometimes the game did seem to make extra pups spawn in walls sometimes for no reason (not sure which mod caused that or if it's an issue with the base code, but it only really happened once or twice)-
If that happens again, could you perhaps check the consoleLog.txt file (should be in Steam\steamapps\common\Rain World) and see if the "created slugpup!" line shows up more than once ?
Also I made a discussion section for bugs and missing features, so we can continue discussing this in there instead

@Big Sis Moon I do have Pups for everyone set at a really high number, but I don't think that it makes more slugpups spawn per cycle or region. I also checked the wiki and I didn't see any limits on pup spawn
