Any news on this being updated for build 42? This is my favourite skillbook mod and I'm not a fan of stuff like CDDA books, this one is set up just right.

Will an option to consume the books read be added anytime soon? Would love to use it!

@Zankle, maybe change the sandbox settings ingame. and add the skills via copy and paste.
Woodwork=1;Electricity=1;MetalWelding=1;Mechanics=1;Cooking=.5;Farming=.5;Doctor=.5;Tailoring=.5;Fishing=.5;Trapping=.5;PlantScavenging=.5;Maintenance=.5;Aiming=.1;Reloading=.1;Sprinting=.1;Sneak=.1;Lightfoot=.1;Nimble=.1;Axe=.1;Blunt=.1;SmallBlunt=.1;LongBlade=.1;SmallBlade=.1;Spear=.1;Strength=.1;Fitness=.1, those are the original skill names, restart your map and it should work, it did for me.

Hello,

I love your mod been using it on my server for some time however after setting up a fresh server using the literacy mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2812583527&searchtext=literacy - and you mod. While i have you mod enabled i am unable to read the learn to read magazine from the literacy mod. I just wanted to give you aheads up. Unfortunately i have had to disabled it for now due to the conflict.

It won't work when we're hosting a multiplayer server from the in-game host option. Am I doing something wrong?

@Agitatio: Option to consume books will come at some point, it's on my radar as a feature as well. Good point about the walking-while-reading, heheh. I tossed that feature in knowing I'd never use it, and never really thought that hard about it at the time - this was one of my first mods. When I revisit it I will change that.

@Khadawick74: No idea, let me know, lol.

I think instead of multiplying XP gain when sitting/walking it should instead multiply read speed. Why would anyone read while walking if you get less XP by doing that? Plus, I hate to ask but, an option to consume books after fully reading them would've been fantastic.

Hello! Does this work with the Literacy Mod?

Fixed some bugs, made some new bugs, fixing those bugs. Annoying.

Getting an error every second, made a discussion about it to post the stack trace

How can I use the presets without using the = sign?
UdderlyEvelyn  [author] Sep 6, 2022 @ 10:17pm 
@Zankle: Apparently using "=" in a sandbox options makes it so that presets, specifically, do not work right. I will address this when I have time, as it's not the highest priority thing for me. Sorry for the inconvenience, though.
UdderlyEvelyn  [author] Sep 6, 2022 @ 10:02pm 
@Darth_Apnea It does not, and it should be compatible with Ultimate XP Tweaker, I considered running both myself. xD

@Zankie: I have no idea what that's about. I usually configure stuff via the in-game menus and I run multiplayer, nothing special about my mod's sandbox options vs. others, though.
Zanklev™ Sep 6, 2022 @ 5:18pm 
Every time I save a world preset the whitelist gets changed to only include "Woodwork" and nothing else, not game breaks or nothing but it is a bit annoying.
Darth_Apnea Aug 11, 2022 @ 4:54pm 
Also, is this compatible with Ultimate XP Tweaker? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2827283808
Ive been looking at combining the two ideas, but wont need to if this mod does book multipliers too
Darth_Apnea Aug 11, 2022 @ 4:52pm 
Small world lmao - I was looking at making a mod that gave a certain (configurable) amount of level for a book when read! - Does this also include changing the book modifiers? I find they're far too high, making books a needed thing (which, I want to discourage on my server)
UdderlyEvelyn  [author] Aug 6, 2022 @ 9:43pm 
Seems to just give the XP in the latter half of books after my last update/overhaul, harmless but I will fix that soon.
UdderlyEvelyn  [author] Aug 3, 2022 @ 7:17pm 
Oh and change the multiplier to 1 to match the new defaults too, if you so desire.
UdderlyEvelyn  [author] Aug 3, 2022 @ 7:06pm 
WARNING: The latest update changes the format of the whitelist. If you're updating, update your sandbox config line to the following new defaults or tweak it yourself:
Woodwork=1;Electricity=1;MetalWelding=1;Mechanics=1;Cooking=.5;Farming=.5;Doctor=.5;Tailoring=.5;Fishing=.5;Trapping=.5;PlantScavenging=.5;Maintenance=.5;Aiming=.1;Reloading=.1;Sprinting=.1;Sneaking=.1;Lightfooted=.1;Nimble=.1;Axe=.1;Long Blunt=.1;Short Blunt=.1;Long Blade=.1;Short Blade=.1;Spear=.1;Strength=.1;Fitness=.1

Thanks for this! Was looking for a more balanced reading speed while sitting mod. Hope it works with my other mods and books.
