Mods que deberían ser vanilla.

Not entirely sure if it was the mod's fault but I watched the entire carpentry show on 7/11 12PM, and didn't get any experience. I can't recall if I fast forwarded.
This mod was great for me while the glitch was still there though. Thank you so much for it!

A lot of people seem to agree that this bug has been fixed and the mod is no longer necessary. I'm leaving it up just in case anyone still needs it, particularly those who might still be playing legacy versions of the game for whatever reason.

But yea, it's probably safe for most players to uninstall this mod.

Seems to be fixed on 41.65?

I do not know, it's probably worth trying it yourself on your computer in case it is tied to your OS or clock speed.

Has this bug been fixed yet?
The bug has been patched as of 41.53, tested multiple times - no need for this mod anymore

So it gave me exp in a batch so all exp from the show in one go when not in fast forward but no exp at all when FF. I switched off the mod and unsubscribed to make sure it's not loaded, tried watching the show in FF and it's giving me exp in small quantities, like it's supposed to be. There is a chance it's fixed now, I'm not sure.
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 3. aug. 2021 kl. 6:33 
Can you be more precise? What were you expecting to happen and what actually happened?
adres4t 2. aug. 2021 kl. 12:45 
does not seem to work for me. 41.53

Bug still occurs for me. I've also found I have to be at the TV before the hour starts, so I have to be there at 5:50pm. If I arrive at 6:10, I do not get the exp. I've also tested this at normal speed, not reading. :)
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 21. juli 2021 kl. 11:39 
Not sure, and I think it might also depend on your particular computer and operating system. I suggest you try it with and without the mod to see if it makes a difference.

Has this bug been fixed in version 41.50?

I think people don't realize that when the tic hits to give you the xp, there is a chance-to-miss that occurs if you are reading at that time. I think this may contribute to reports as being associated with fast-forward, but these are not mutually exclusive phenomena.

@OGSN
Fair enough.
LordDeepain 30. maj 2021 kl. 10:53 
Yep, 100% sure. I get identical XP gains when using F6 speed and normal game speed.

confirmed, only with tis mod the xp i recives in 1 hit, withouth the mod the xp is in varius hits, but identical

Confirmado solo que con este mod recibo la experiencia de golpe, sin el mod se recibe poco a poco, pero siempre la misma cantidad.....
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 30. maj 2021 kl. 10:25 
Unfortunately I think that's pretty deep issue that I don't know how to fix. I think it's the same underlying issue that causes this bug, and this mod is really just a bandaid as opposed to a genuine fix of the real problem, which is important stuff happening during ticks that the game "misses" somehow
ShotofDepresso 30. maj 2021 kl. 0:44 
Hey, I don't know where to ask so I'll ask here, could you potentially fix speeding up time cancelling actions? It only happens with F6 (fastest time) and it's super annoying and can even get you killed.
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 15. maj 2021 kl. 18:38 
Interesting! Thanks, I'll need to check that out myself next time I play.

I urge anyone else reading this to confirm it on their own machine in case it is dependent on your CPU or OS.
ShotofDepresso 15. maj 2021 kl. 16:20 
Yep, 100% sure. I get identical XP gains when using F6 speed and normal game speed.
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 15. maj 2021 kl. 15:29 
It might also be CPU and OS dependent. Plus, some TV shows have a different amount of ticks per episode; the ones with more ticks are more susceptible to the glitch.

However, are you quite sure you've done a side-by-side comparison of the total amount of XP you earn at max speed? In my experience, in the vanilla game you do receive *some* of the XP from TV shows at max speed. However, the more XP ticks per episode and the faster the game, the more of the ticks you miss, and the less total XP you get.
ShotofDepresso 15. maj 2021 kl. 15:03 
Not to say this mod was never helpful, it's just not needed anymore.
ShotofDepresso 15. maj 2021 kl. 15:02 
Not sure, as I've only recently opted into .41, but I have no issues receiving XP in fast forward.
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 15. maj 2021 kl. 10:35 
When did that happen?
ShotofDepresso 14. maj 2021 kl. 22:30 
Redundant, vanilla .41 has already fixed this issue.
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 16. dec. 2020 kl. 12:20 
yea but then you just have to show up at the end after which point you leave anyway. When it's somewhere between the beginning and middle then at least there's a punishment for coming late.
[P]okey 16. dec. 2020 kl. 2:30 
you should make it so the exp gain is on the end of the show, not in the middle of the show. I exploited this very much and feel kida bad.
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 28. aug. 2020 kl. 6:41 
@ 橙 :
That's definitely possible. The game allows for dynamic stations that repeat at regular intervals forever. I don't think there's anything stopping us from adding XP bonuses to those transmissions.

I'm not too interested in creating that myself, though.

I wander TV went off in two weeks is there any way I can watch TV forever?
Boxcarwilly 9. aug. 2020 kl. 12:04 
Thank you for this mod! Exactly what I was looking for.
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 28. maj 2020 kl. 22:55 
Oh, of course. Sorry, I thought you perhaps misunderstood what the mod did.

Yea, you're on your honor not to walk away :)
I usually stick around for the full program just to be fair, but yea, there's nothing mechanically forcing you to stick around.

It's either that or listen to the carpenter cowboy speech every day for a week.
Ben Dover 28. maj 2020 kl. 20:23 
Turn the tele on, then off immediately when the notification of the exp alert appears. "Saves" you 10-20 min in-game time. Honestly, it's hard to even call it an exploit.
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 28. maj 2020 kl. 15:46 
Wait, how so?
Ben Dover 28. maj 2020 kl. 15:01 
I see an exploit >:)

But again, it comes down on how people actually want to play the game. Either way, nice work !
Banjo Oz 10. apr. 2020 kl. 6:43 
Oh shit yes, thank you! :)

You're welcome!

Oh my god thank you. I had been searching for hours.
Oh God Spiders No  [ophavsmand] 11. jan. 2020 kl. 18:20 
Sure, check out this thread:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/app/108600/discussions/0/3428846977656275044/

If you change something in the steam mod folder, steam will automatically correct the changes, so if you want to change them you should copy the mod's folder into the local mod folder and then make your changes to that copy

Heyo, I'm trying to edit a mod's values and having trouble finding where they are located, do you think you could help?
