Phinix

Description
A total rewrite of Longwelwind's Phi chat and trading mod.

What does it do?
tl;dr: You can chat with other people and trade items with them
Phinix is a server-centric chat and trading client.
After connecting to a server, you can chat amongst everyone else online and open up item trades with them, too.


... is that it?
Yup!
There are some other bits and pieces we'll be working on down the road[github.com], but that is the essence of it.


FAQ
Can I trade modded items?
Yes, so long as the other player has the mod the item comes from.

Is Phinix compatible with Phi servers?
No. Phinix uses a completely different backend to Phi, so the two are incompatible with each other.

Can I run both Phinix and Phi at the same time?
Yes, they won't overlap or cause any issues with each other.

How do you colour/format text?
The Unity docs[docs.unity3d.com] covers how you can do that with simple markup. (The size tag is disabled for everyone's sanity)

What is the server address?
There are a few servers public servers to choose from:
phinix.chat, port 16200 - The main server based in Sydney, Australia
eu.phinix.chat, port 16200 - The EU server based in the UK
134.175.98.104, port 16200 - The community-run Chinese server, based in mainland China
We keep an up-to-date list in the official Discord server[discord.gg] in the #welcome channel

Can I set up my own server?
Of course! Check out the wiki page[github.com] for instructions on how to set one up yourself. We still recommend using a public server for a more interesting experience, but you're free to do what you want.


Having issues?
There's a few ways you can get help:
1. Send us a message in the official Phi/Phinix Discord[discord.gg] (Usually resolved within the day)
2. Lodge a bug report directly through the GitHub issue tracker[github.com] (Easy to track!)

Please don't use the workshop page comments to ask for help or report bugs. The workshop isn't really designed for that kind of thing and it's hard to keep track of. The methods above are the easiest ways for us to help you.


Source code
Source is available on GitHub[github.com]
Feel free to check it out if you're interested.

This is not true, in fact it is far more likely that NuanKi was experiencing a mod conflict or load order (or something else) error and blaming it on rimpy. Sure, rimpy has some outdated ordering, but it experiences far less load order issues than rimsort on a general basis. Rimpy tends to work to the About.xml load orders specified by mod authors who will generally know which mods need to come before or after it - and the reason for this is because load orders affect items being patched - so in 99% of cases, you can actually use either. Rimpy still has less problems than rimsort in their current manifests, though.

Some of the biggest ones it breaks are Vanilla Framework and XML Extensions, not always, but sooner or later, you will get black screens, map generation problems, etc...
So its better to avoid it.
Lambda 31 Jul @ 10:45pm 
It breaks mods? Which ones?
NuanKi 31 Jul @ 7:21pm 
@Rwx, stop using something as outdated as rimpy, and use rimsort
NuanKi 31 Jul @ 7:20pm 
Back then HugsLib added a lot of things, but most of them are vanilla now, also HugsLib breaks a lot of mods without you knowing, that's why there is a love-hate relationship with it
Lambda 30 Jul @ 12:06pm 
whats wrong with hugslib?
Mac 29 Jul @ 6:29am 
Thank you, THANK YOU for removing the dependency on HugsLib, actually playable gem now.

Honestly love this, feels so nice to chat and trade with other players. My only suggestion is changing out the message recieved noise to be something other than that 'tick' noise because I thought my game was bugging for the longest time
gh0stashes 13 Jul @ 4:21am 
@Rex that's a rimpy problem. If you want to fix it temporarily, you can open up the db.json file and find "phinix" and remove the hugslib requirement, but this requires at least basic knowledge of json to know how much to delete.
Rex 11 Jul @ 8:10pm 
Oh cool - rimpy still thinks it does, so is there any way we could get that changed? Or is that a Rimpy problem
