Spirituality mod (formerly chapel mod)

Postby silvernightnl » Fri Aug 29, 2014 10:22 pm

Hey all

Jep, totally did steal their idea. But hey, they proposed it, so, Thanks Introversion!
---

NOTE: this mod has been renamed form Chapel mod to Spirituality mod! It's still the same mod, but now with more added content

This is a quick and small mod I made, it does a couple of things:
-It adds a church as a room, which requires research to unlock.
-It adds a library as a room, which requires research to unlock.
-It adds a few grants for these new rooms
-It adds many related objects
-It adds related reform programs
-It adds a new need: Spirituality, which can be satisfied by going to church. Currently, it might be somewhat unbalanced, but at least it doesn't cause a riot. Feedback about this would be apreciated :)
-It adds meditation to the game, in the form of a special reform programme.

So yeah, that's a quick summary of what it does.

(Note on the other similar mod on the workplace: I spoke to the author, and we both agreed to keep our mods in the workplace, but he gave me credit for being first. So I do know there is another one)

---

Version 1.2 changelog:
Note: you will need to reapply the mod after this update!
-Renamed to mod from Chapel Mod to Spirituality Mod
-This is because of many non-chapel related additions in this patch
-Added a new roomtype: Library
-This allows your prisoners to read books to satisfy their spirituality and recreations needs
-Added a new grant: Library
-Basically, it's meant to fund a library
-Added a new reform program: Meditation lessons
-This will allow inmates to follow a meditation programme in the common room
-You need a new Meditation cushion for every inmate in the common room, added in this patch
-Removed the advanced bible studies reform
-The basic bible studies is now equal to the old advanced version
-Added a new refom program: Church Mass
-A one session, repeatable reform meant to replace the old basic bible studies.
-Led by a priest
-In beta, might not work properly
-Fixed the priest sprite
-Added chapel candles
-Added meditation cushion
-Added large bookshelf
-Tweaked the Spirituality need a bit

---

Version 1.1 changelog:
-Official sprite for the Pew added
-Renamed several objects to be more accurate
-Added a grant
-Added an altar
-Added not one, but two programme's. one basic, and one advanced programme that will become interesting in an later update
-Severly upped the chance of inmates devoloping the need for Spirituality, however, not all existing prisoners will be affected sadly.
-Added the beginning of the confessional booth (misnamed as prayerbooth). Atm it will perform like a Pew

---

Things to do:
-(possible) add more ways to fulfill the Spirituality need. (Suggestions?)
-Finish the confesional booth
-Suggestions?

---

Bugs:
-(unconfirmed) crash during saving/loading
-Spirituality need not always applied to existing inmates (not sure how to fix, seems like an game limitation)

(unconfirmed bugs are bugs that have been reported to me, but not verified (recreated) by me

Well, I guess that's it. Any piece of feedback would be appreciated :)

Good job getting to it so fast! XD

I hope the confessional will be a reform program similar to therapy that can be used by anyone. That would make it useful and efficient.

Also, maybe you could use the book shelf as a means to read the Bible and fulfill spiritual needs.

Thanks for giving me one of the best solutions for a problem I've been having, making it a reform would make things much easier.

The book shelf is going to be added for sure, which would satisfy Spirituality need for those who do not want a chapel in their prison. At least, that's the current plan. Sadly, I've not been able to work on the mod today because of my rheumatism acting up again, but i hope to push out the next update tomorrow :)

Try closing and restarting the game to see if any changes get applied on launch.

Nope doesn't work. And I found out something which might help, the "data" folder is empty.

Can you please upload the mod somewhere different than Steam Workshop, I think the Workshop is the problem. :-\

Hi,
I feel myself stupid! I don't understand how to work Steam Workshop!

I prefer direct download because I buy with steam but I don't use that, I download directly from Introversion.

thx

Are you still updating [the mod] yes or no?

EDIT: I am talking to owner of mod, asking if he is still updating the mod.

I don't understand if you talk to me, but I replay.

Now I have:
Direct Download: Alpha 27a (Mac)
Steam Alpha 26 (I guess because I don't start it and I don't see the download of the new version)

Bye
