i dont think the mod is fully working for me i can re learn all the recipes ive learned but none of my exp ive earned in skills transfers over, im new to the game so death is a very good companion of mine lol

The mod is working well and still running normally. Sorry for not understanding the code and bothering you

Hi, love the mod. Excellent work however for some reason my journal stopped saving my weapon skills, specifically axe. Any thoughts?

Hi, your mod isn't working for me. Version 041. I'm playing with two friends. I'm hosting, and the journal doesn't appear in the game's "B" menu, neither in English nor in my language (Spanish).
I've unsubscribed, resubscribed, deactivated it in the game's mods menu, reactivated it, and added your mod to the game (already started). But the journal still doesn't appear for crafting.

Thanks, and sorry for my poor English. I use Google Translate.

There should be more lines around the error showing the file line and name for the source.

I need help, I can't create a new notebook, I have everything I need, but when I create it, the only option to write in the bullet point is, it says it needs to be ready with a pen, which doesn't make sense since I haven't created the notebook yet.In old save it works, but nothing I create works, I need help because it really helps me a lot

Seeing some one stand up to "mod packing" is great. thanks

Share the errors

This mod stops my crafting menu from coming up and gives me errors.

You should be able to transfer the player file over (atleast in MP)

This mod is an absolute NECESSITY for any of my SP/MP games in Zomboid. Many thanks Chuckleberry. One question - what would it take to make the journals import/export friendly? Maybe like an old school video game method where you type in a code and it puts the right amount of XP for each skill or something like that, rather than an apples to apples import.

I think it would be super cool to be able to continue my characters across any map or gamezone to keep a more "persistent" function. No items or even the character itself needs to transfer, just hopefully what comes in a journal (XP, recipes, zombie kills)

Thank you. :)

Just wanted to say thanks very much for this mod, and for maintaining it.

If the mod is added to an ongoing world the sandbox options may not be added correctly- I'm not sure why this would cause mismatched behavior between players (if that's what you're describing).

My friend has a problem with the mod — he's not getting his XP recovered from the TV, and in the settings I don't see the Skill Recovery Journal settings, even though I'm the owner of the server. Why is that? Do I need another mod to use this mod?
I'm also using the Error Magnifier mod. Yes, I added the mod in both the Steam Workshop settings and the mod settings, but it's still not working.

@kitkat - Great minds ;)

is there a mod where i dont have to craft a book and record progress in? i want to just maintain my skills when i die...

bruh i told my friends about this idea for a mod i had and recited the EXACT idea for this mod like down to it being a journal and all damn... amazing.

update: resub did not work but disabled the mod. loaded up the save. quit. enable mod. load up again and now works. thank you :)

please help. b41, crafting menu opens on launch, no option to craft the journal [yes its enabled in settings], if i close it unable to re-open it. worked fine in previous run

Glad it worked!

Scratch that I just erased and then re wrote the mod thing and loaded it again. For some reason it duplicated my save and I used the other one and now the mod is working in the save :) Thank you!

Thanks for the super fast answer. I'm looking through the tab that specifically says skill recovery journal and everything is there, and I even tried the deleting 3 thing from one of the other tabs in the crafting recipe. Would it be in one of the more general sandbox options or is there perhaps another recipe I could try to make it appear?

There might be an issue with sandbox options- the recipe is generated from a sandbox option.

Hi, thanks for all your work with this mod! I'm was wondering if there is any way to add this mod to a world in progress, as it's my first time trying Zomboid with my friends and I didn't quite set up the mods right the first time we played. I made a new world to test and found the journals recipe, but no matter what way I set it up the skill book tab/recipe won't appear in the already started run. Is there any other way to add it to an ongoing run other then what is in the FAQ? Thanks again!

My friend has a problem with the mod — he's not getting his XP recovered from the TV, and in the settings I don't see the Skill Recovery Journal settings, even though I'm the owner of the server. Why is that? Do I need another mod to use this mod?
I'm also using the Error Magnifier mod. Yes, I added the mod in both the Steam Workshop settings and the mod settings, but it's still not working.

I can only guess with out seeing the error log, but maybe your sandbox option failed? The mod generates a recipe using sandbox options.

I have both required mods. It’s just red, saying error next to it. Can’t even see it in craft menu

If the mod is red you're most likely missing the required mods.

The error isn’t letting me craft the journal. Like when I open the mods menu in esc all I see is an error for skill recovery journal. Since that’s happening I can’t use the mod.

Solaire- Id need to see the error.

Eepayne- Check the FAQ.

I'm on build 41 and for some reason the mod isn't working. It's saying error on my server. Any idea whats wrong?

Unsure after reading. If in an MP game, we have 3 characters who each grind on 3 different skills. Can we read each others' journals, in effect teaching the other 2 characters the skills they have grinded for?

Unfortunately XP code can get pretty complex with how many things touch it. If you're not seeing XP match you may have a mod like more-traits that adds flat-XP.

The creates a situation were you get less XP. There's also other things people aren't aware of like how starting levels impact XP growth.

@Chuckleberry Finn. for some reason in my game the XP boosts don't reflect for me. is it a possible bug?

@Haznut - the XP boosts should be reflected I think? Otherwise you can stack them.

@Orangeninja - Those broke when I redid the action code, I'll check it out when I have time.

@Tclea - This should be fixed in the most recent patch -- unsure if I updated it.

is there any chance you can update the mod so it will hold knowledge from books as well so i don't need to re-read books again to get the additional xp, i can just read the journal and that's it

There is a bit of an issue i'm having, where the animations for writing in and reading the journal are broken. I'm on B42 in case that helps.

Hi! There is a big exploit with the mod. The journal can be shared with more players if they use the same steamID. So if player A has aiming 10 and writes in the journal, he shares his steamid with Player B. Player B logs in using the steamid of Player A but with the username of Player B. Then, he can have all the xp from Player A. if can be fixed, will be great! thanks

Yes

Does it work in unstable?

Not currently

Is it possible to share the journal with your friends?

Yes

can we update the journal ? ex. if we learn new skill or lvl up ?

No

Does updating the journal sandbox setting break the journal function for players?
