📋 About This Mod
These icons for Devilish Needs fade into existence as a need grows. No need, no icon. Now with alternative icons and community contributions.
Here is an HD icon pack for the Devilish Needs survival mod.
Basis
Devilish Needs (DN) 5 displays distinct status icons indicating 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, or 100% of a need. We attempt to display the 5 possible states more cleanly.
In Sum
This mod represents a departure from the default icon display scheme of DN and previous icon mods for it:
Gauges will not be squinted at, and icons that indicate no need will disappear from the screen. You will have strong visual indicators when you are near death:
-
[]No unmet need => no icon
[
]25% on the gauge => mostly transparent icon (33. 3% opacity)[]50% on the gauge => less transparent icon (66. 6% opacity)
[]75% on the gauge => opaque icon
- 100% on the gauge, soon to die => opaque icon with alert circle
Icons are HD (64x64), with the help of a change to DN's Lua scripts.
Killer Feature
If you disable a particular need in Devilish Needs script options, you will not see its icon again.
Installation
It's an icon replacer with 4 Lua scripts adapted to the HD icons. There are optional replacer folders for each need -- just load 00 Core first.
Because these are HD icons, YOU MUST LOAD 00 Core FIRST to get the scripts for displaying them.
Follow 00 Core with any alternative replacers you might fancy, dear.
If something is not working like it should, please let me know right away.
Scripts and Future-Proofing
The scripts included here are taken from Devilish Needs 1. 5 and modified to support 64x64 icons. If a newer DN release is being broken by them, you could delete the outdated scripts from this mod and modify the following DN files in /scripts/BasicNeeds/:
showIcon.lua
showIcon2.lua
showIcon3.lua
showIcon4.lua
...and change:
resource = ui.texture { path = texturePath, offset = util.vector2(0,0), size = util.vector2(32,32) },
resource = ui.texture { path = texturePath, offset = util.vector2(0,0), size = util.vector2(64,64) },
