Daggerfall Workshop Forums

I've been noticing that the mod seems to only be transporting me to the same places every time. If I change the settings the place I end up will change, but I'll always end up in that place with those settings.

Somebody else was having this issue before and I did not really have an answer for them and they were the only one reporting behavior like that at the time. Do you also happen to be using Linux as your operating system? Because that was what they were using as well.

I'm using Windows. But, I did just start a new game and noticed that it gave me a different starting location this time. Maybe some of the starting locations get favoured heavily for some reason?

I really could not tell you honestly, initially when Jehuty mentioned he was having a similar issue on his Linux system, I put it down to possible weirdness with different systems and how random number generators function or something, now that you brought it up, or at least a seemingly similar problem on a Windows system, I really have no clue what could be the issue.

I guess for now, if it is still mostly functioning, then that's good enough hopefully, lol.

Thank you for this, being able to start anywhere but the same old place is great!
But I wanted to ask if you've gotten any work done on being able to start in random towns rather than dungeons, as it could be great fun to roleplay as someone from a random village in a random kingdom going on adventures.

Anyway, great work on the mod!

I'm glad the mod has enhanced your enjoyment of the game. Unfortunately my attention has been somewhat all over the place recently and I have not done any further work on adding more features to this mod. When I have been working on DFU related stuff it has mostly been my overhaul project, which I eventually plan to integrate this mod directly into that "version" of the game when I ever get a version released to the public, as well as likely this feature you mentioned on there as well. But I unfortunately have no time-frame for any of this, besides "eventually." Sorry if the answer is the most satisfactory, but if somebody wanted to do this they are free to as the source code for this is available on my github, but that would be up to them, but until that time I hope you continue to enjoy the mod!

Thanks for your swift reply!
No worries aboout it,life happens!
And I am considering getting into modding myself, but since my experience mostly relates to RPG Maker and Game Maker I have a ways to go.
Good luck on your project, buddy!

Appreciate it, and to you and your future projects as well! If you need help getting into the modding thing feel free to ask around here.

I had an issue with getting the same punishment in my court window (on Windows). Changing the random generation seed on saved game load worked for me. For you, you can do it on new game or whatever. UnityEngine.Random.InitState() would be the function you're looking for.
Edit: I'd probably delay it to right before your random roll since the DFU core uses that function a fair amount, even during chargen (I believe)

Thanks, I'll have to try and add something like that whenever I finally do another update of the mod, thanks for the info.
