Would it be possible to tie the autopickup time with spear skill? Spear skill would lower the autopickup timer by up to 80% at skill lvl 100 for example?
hopefully someone can help me, it says the amount of time is configurable but when i download the file it doesn't have the config. so how are people configuring the time?
edit: NVM, im a dumbass and didnt run my server for it to generate yet.
I really like this mod, because I don't have to worry about my spear any more. But I don't want to bother everybody to install it on their server/host or disable it on my end.
it has a technical reason. when you throw a spear and the object lands on the ground only one player/client has the rights to affect that object. so while it usually is the thrower, if it's not the thrower I have to ask the other player/client to return the spear to you, so the other client also needs the mod installed. it's also used for consistency for the pickup feature. if the other players don't have the mod installed, they will immediately pick up the spear that you have thrown at the enemy that they are currently fighting in melee range, since their auto pickup is not affected by your mod
I understand your reasoning and accept it. Nevertheless I wish I could join a server which has not install the mod. Like you said: The worst that can happen is that someone else picks up my spear, but the same happens when I disable the mod to join the server.
Suggestion: Leave a place holder in inventory for the spear after thrown. This way you can't accidentally fill your inventory and become unable to pick up the spear.
I added a carry weight reservation feature with this update. a complete slot reservation feature would be too invasive for my liking, but this feature prevents picking up additional monster loot right after throwing that would push you over the carry weight limit for the spear and thus disable auto pickup.
I'd like to second the request for compatibility with MaxAxe! It sounds like he wants to incorporate the auto-pickup change at some point, but specifically doesn't want to include the auto return feature. Apparently weapons thrown by MaxAxe are flagged, I can only hope that that would make it easier to implement.
Doesn't work when joining a multiplayer game. It gives a prompt after getting disconnected saying cannot join with loyal spears auto pickup and return to owner installed.
then the prompt tells you exactly what the issue is. the server does not have the mod installed. this mod is required to be installed on the server and by all players
