(don't reply to that comment, i know you demand nothing and was simply reporting observed facts) *writes something on his to do list for next week* As for measure of use, you could code something in dp that reports use if the user is online. course you'd have to explain the firewall notification in a pop up the first time it connects. not perfectly explained but i wish to commit.

My main annoyance with the way the current export works is that half the time it puts most of my deed underwater ... This exists both in WO and WU to make deed export (a little bit) less exploitable, but I don't really mind if someone will override this behavior via WU mod. Just try to keep the overall heights sane. 2 hours ago, Steveleeb said: which is why im very happy that codeclub pay you a developers wage. Volunteer developer here, so no wage/benefits other than forum badge and possibility to help in development of such awesome game. 2 hours ago, Steveleeb said: As for measure of use, you could code something in dp that reports use if the user is online. course you'd have to explain the firewall notification in a pop up the first time it connects. not perfectly explained but i wish to commit. To be honest, I am actually leaning towards this option: collecting data takes very little, almost unnoticeable amounts of data, program is open sourced so there is no room for hidden stuff. Some people don't like being tracked even if this is just anonymous data, but knowing how users actually use the program helps a lot in developing it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2017 First version of 3d view editing concept document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11tk_jIjFvw4FxYn_N055G13ajcpy_ceZ2jI27bR-erQ/edit?usp=sharing Just in case - commenting it is enabled. When it comes to missing objects, new version will most likely appear before the end of the next weekend - maybe during the current one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 10, 2017 hey, 3D view editing sounds as great idea ... seems, once Deed planner could be even better that Wurm itself where is hiding some alpha ver. to test? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 14, 2017 DeedPlanner 2.7.2 released! Changes: Added possibility to toggle bridges rendering in 2d view Added over 50 new objects Added new categories for some of the new objects, moved some of the existing objects to better fitting categories Renamed "Fountains" objects category to "Water Sources" Big thanks to Malena for objects list, and to Yldrania for a few suggestions. One small fact - DeedPlanner will turn 4 years old in exactly one month (if we count from 1.0 version release). 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2017 Awesome stuff! Like Wurm, DeedPlanner just gets better and better! Oh and by the way that video you showed of the code connections was super interesting. I don't know much about programming myself, but is it a tool that allows you to gain quick access to your code files, or is it simply a visual representation of the connections? And 4 years! I can certainly think of one way to celebrate and thank you for all your hard work with this tool! *wink wink* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know much about programming myself, but is it a tool that allows you to gain quick access to your code files, or is it simply a visual representation of the connections? Visual representation of DeedPlanner Git repository over time, with parameters set to create a quick and dynamic video instead of detailed view of changes - it can be used with other kinds of repositories as well (surely Mercurial and Subversion), and not just for code - in this video, upper left branch is mostly code, lower left - configuration files/libraries and lower right - art assets. Really nice tool, can be used to allow non-tech people see changes in the project made by every team member, while for tech people it makes it easier to visualize the progress and/or evaluate program complexity. In addition, it is trivial to use, just point it to the repository via command line, run command and done. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I use it extensively when planning my deeds Oh yeah I forgot to chime in on this pondering as well. For me at least, "I don't leave home without it" when embarking on any new design, even for a single small house! Building things in Wurm is so tedious and time consuming that planning it out with DeedPlanner first is a must, really. Unless you want to make mistakes, lose time, materials and your patience!

And I have been using DeedPlanner for every single build of mine since I began to play Wurm. Many thanks for making this fantastic tool and maintaining it, much appreciated. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 16, 2017 It seems like all public Dropbox links to DeedPlanner assets are dead - I think I recovered access to all of them, but if something is missing or not working as it should - please report that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 23, 2017 Some plans for the following weeks: Next big feature (for 2.8) - hinted above with the screenshot of cow - will be a pen planning. It will allow you to put animals on plan in the same way as you can do with objects right now. Initially, I will include all farm animals (including different horse colors) and some common taming targets. The main difference between objects and animals is that you will be able to set different age/gender for animals - other than that, they will be functionally identical. No animations (yet), sorry. Another interesting feature which will appear in 2.8 is slope editing mode - it will allow you to input slopes from game into the program without interaction with the program at all, by examining tile borders and using emotes in-game. Before 2.8 there will most likely be one more minor release, but I cannot say any details about its content or release date yet. ETA for 2.8.0 release: 14 April 2017 (DeedPlanner 4th anniversary). 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you want to have water on your map, you can also simply modify the terrain height so parts of map will be below water level. Doors are in the same tab as all other house walls and fences.

Posted March 26, 2017 Ive always had trouble of lowering the ground after raising it. Im probably noobing, but how do i do it? When i "mark" a tile with the green outline, i seem to only be able to raise it more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine doors count as ground tiles: assuming your DeedPlanner is up to date, you should see "Cave doors" category as the last one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Up to date ? means in former versions he forgot the mine doors ? i have 2.7.2. and still do not find what you said. no water, no mine doors. and i cannot cahnge height or lower it no matter what i click. i switched height to "on" even in the top options of the client, nothing.
