v64
- Fixed some prop walls showing up in the architect menu
(meant to push this ages ago, sorry)

I have the same error with the empty gothic catergory too when using only those two mods and their dependencies, i dont know how to upload the whole hugslog but when opening the category the same error appear

Exception filling window for VFEProps.Window_PropsListing: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
[Ref B9072ABA]

I've got the empty gothic catagory bug too

@Eriakit This is an "opinion" mod first and foremost, but I agree it has gotten to a size where it should be split up. I'll be doing that as time goes on.

[P1] While I like a lot of this mod, I'm in solid agreement with Reestock and Joanne. A lot of this mod should be separated either into separate mods, or made into toggle-able mod options. I really love the research streamlining, for instance, but I HATE having to research clocks and prison stuff separately when I didn't have to before. and I didn't get a mod to streamline my Props Category to make research harder for my early colonies. I also did not ask for, and do not want, re-balances to wall HP or entirely removed bed and wall options, especially not from, again, a mod I got to streamline my Props Categories.

[P2]I would keep a lot of your changes. But even the ones I would want to keep, I would want to opt into with either mod options (my preference at this point for this mod) or by them being separated into additional mods.

And given the number of item name changes, research changes, etc, I REALLY don't want to remove the mod from my existing long-term saves. So that isn't an option. So because of the lack of mod options (again, my preferred solution to this scope creep issue), I am stuck with whatever you decide is "better" even if I want nothing of it. Because I got a mod to condense my Props Category.

Tl;dr: please add mod options to this mod to enabled/disable the various features of it. Thank you.

As this mod gets bigger I feel like no options for what is patched at all is very frustrating. A solid 60-70% of this is stuff I like but I wish I could customize some of these patches myself

@BehJam yeah same

Also experiencing an empty gothic category in the props menu with MUS Gothicstyle. Not sure if it was fixed already and I'm missing something though.

By the way, I fixed the replacelib architect menu bug by just putting it lower down in my mod list.

I gotta agree with Reestock on this one too.

Progression mods with those tweaks are like a necessity right now for my playthroughs, but on the other hand, Agriculture has actively made my game somewhat worse with some of the balance changes and choices that went from tweaks and bloat removing to outright game changing features that went way out of the scope of what it originally was for me.

@Reestock That's a reasonable idea, yeah. I'll think about it.

I'm just sayin', if someone would like to get all the touchups for story consistency, then most progression mods are great for that, but there are also Progression mods that introduce new game-changing mechanics bundled with those, like Agriculture and Robotics, which some people might think are too complicated or unnecessary.

Ideally, you'd have one main "Progression:" series with all the consistency tweaks, then alongside that you'd have all the gameplay features in some sort of "Progression Functions:" series. That way, if someone only wants the gameplay features, they can add them with no trouble, and vice versa.
I'd say now is a good time to do that, since the only current one I can think of having this issue is Agriculture.
So you could just rename Progression: Agriculture to something like "Progression Functions: Seeds", and make a new Progression: Agriculture that's just for "fitting the unified vision" in every other way.
It would be easier for all the users, really.

@Reestock First one is a weird bug I've never heard of, the other complaints are due to the fact that my work is in cohesion patching, not specificlaly MO cohesion patching. I release cohesion patches for elements of the game to fit a unified vision. Offering mod options would defeat the purpose of that and mess with my workflow, these are purely to offer a definitive authored experience of taking care of thematic/gameplay overlap in different areas

So, I enabled this mod alongside Medieval Overhaul and VFE Medieval 2, but I still see both versions of the castle walls and fur beds in the architect menu. They do get replaced with the other type when you place them down, but they still show up in the architect menu. This also applies to the palisade walls.

Also, why did you put all the MO patches all scattered across different mods? We could just have one MO patcher mod, but instead you made it so that if someone wants only one type of dirt plowing, they need to also get your mod that completely reworks seeds in a way that not everyone would want.
I just think you should separate the mods that add new game mechanics from the mods that fix incoherencies between mods.

Also also, what if I prefer the VFE Medieval 2 castle walls? Which I do, for the sake of their vanilla aesthetic. You didn't pick an objectively superior wall, didn't combine them into one, and didn't add toggle settings. Do I use neither?

This mod seems to have an issue with Architecture of the Rim (incl. corners), it patches the designationCategory of BaseRoofBuilding, but it needs to patch BaseRafterBuilding instead.

@Bobkiri I'm gonna be reorganizing all of that soon.

If possible, could you consider moving all interactive in-game buildings (such as beds for sleeping, chairs and tables for sitting, and even purely aesthetic flooring) back to the regular menu tabs when the 'Better Architect Menu' is active? I believe the 'VFE - Props and Decor' mod should strictly contain only purely 'decorative' buildings, and it doesn't seem appropriate for functional buildings to be included in it, unless they truly have no function at all.

I had to disable this mod as it was heavily erroring out with Architecture of the Rim (incl. corners)

Additional data point for the AM_FloorLabeling error. It's also fighting with Too Many Mods.

@ferny

@Miku, Miku beam! Not very well

I don't like the whole prop systems so not using those mods, will this mod still work without it?

Will fix issue with gothic stuff in a bit

v63 - overlap patch for MO and VFEA log wall (doesn't rely on architect, so they can be freely moved, unlike previous patch from MO's side)

Same:

Hi I have this error :
Could not resolve cross-reference to Verse.BuildableDef named AM_FloorLabeling (wanter=hiddenDesignators)
logs : https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/b7c3320c1aa4768dc2d9bec91c056575

When installing and running the MUS Gothic mod, or opening the Gothic prop window, an error occurs. This error also occurs when only the prerequisite mods for execution are installed. A similar error occurs with MUS space furniture.

@ferny Yeah, even when my only mods are this mod, Gothicstyle and any prerequisites, when I open the Gothic prop category it's empty and I receive errors. Didn't have this issue on 1.5

https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/8bb3531d14be47d008adccc40515c875

@Bodacious Do you mean Gothic category like in the props menu? Also no, all research related to MUS props are removed entirely

Anyone else's Gothic category completely empty when using MUS Gothicstyle?

Also is this mod research locking MUS SpaceBace Furniture?

v62 - better compatibility with architect mods

Error when loaded with [MUS]太空基地家具Space Base Furniture.

The MO research shelves don't seem to boost my tribal spot or vanilla Simple Research Bench, can this be changed?

@shane_357 I do agree. I'm not much of a prop maker, mainly an organizer. Hope that gets made.

One thing that does feel missing is neolithic decorations/props/etc that could make a village actually look like a village. Tons of stuff for medieval and later, but very little for my little cavemen.

@KBK If this mod is functioning properly, those buildings should be in your props menu.

Just wondering, what is a work around for things not appearing in the architect menu with progression mods? For example I have [MUS]太空基地家具Space Base Furniture installed but I can't seem to get them to appear without removing this mod? I'm not really super informed with rimworld mods so just trying to figure out what's going on with it.

Getting a red error between this and "Medieval Overhaul: Royalty"

@Nekomimi Yeah an architecture of the rim update happened. Gotta update my patches, ugh

Hello!

Getting some new errors with this mod - any chance you could take a look at it, please?

Dunno about others but I can't build the Zahir Lamp with it.

@Ferny It seems that the "Architecture of the Rim (incl. corners)" mod just got an update, and the items from in in the Furniture/Props/Roofs category are not working any more...

The mod I didn't know I absolutely needed.

Adding my voice to those mentioning that the Gothic Props are absent.

v59/v60 - fixed errors with Oracle's Miscelania update

v58 - added prop integration for "Invisible Display Case", fixed errors

I was wondering because it says it's unfinished under CURRENT ISSUES.

v57 - added prop integration for "Victorian decorations" and "Decorations and dishes at Gorgeous banquet", added sign integration for "Decorations and dishes at Gorgeous banquet", improved prop integrations for "Whaley's Props" and "Bill Doors' Signs"
