Class traits/attributes

[WeePhix]

I am working on mod that adds classes and i cant find a list of all the attributes (modifiers that traits of character classes have, for example clockmaker has the trait fleetfooted, which has the attribute of movement speed set to 0.1 (+10%)).

If there is in fact a list of attributes that I am just not aware of, I would greatly appreciate it.

If there isn't, thanks for informing me!

You can find all the attributes in the traits.json file! It is in AppData>Roaming>Vintagestory>assets>survival>config.

Though it sure would be nice if there was a proper list somewhere if there's more we could do with traits/attributes... If there are more hidden away somewhere else.

Oh thanks a lot MoonyBeasty! You've saved me a lot of time! (though i definitely should've looked a bit harder...)

I've actually been researching this a lot the past week myself ironically. The wiki is pretty poorly kept up it seems, and information is really hard to dig up without rooting around in the game code. The base traits do give you a selection of the attributes, but here's the full list of base EntityPlayer.Stats. You can also register custom WatchedAttributes if you want to get into API stuff, but if you're planning to stick to .json Traits, this is what you're working with:

Spoiler

EntityPlayer.Stats

"healingeffectivness"

"maxhealthExtraPoints"

"walkspeed"

"hungerrate"

"rangedWeaponsAcc"

"rangedWeaponsSpeed"

"rangedWeaponsDamage"

"meleeWeaponsDamage"

"mechanicalsDamage"

"animalLootDropRate")

"forageDropRate"

"wildCropDropRate"

"vesselContentsDropRate"

"oreDropRate"

"rustyGearDropRate"

"miningSpeedMul"

"animalSeekingRange"

"armorDurabilityLoss"

"armorWalkSpeedAffectedness"

"bowDrawingStrength"

"wholeVesselLootChance"

"temporalGearTLRepairCost"

"animalHarvestingTime"

"gliderLiftMax"

"gliderSpeedMax"

"jumpHeightMul"

Since this is the latest thread about traits, does anyone know how to add certain traits to a different class? I've tried adding fleetfooted and and resourceful to the Commoner class, but I crash everytime I open the traits page on my character.

 

EDIT: Turns out it wasn't adding traits that causes the crash; it was apparently editing the values that causes it.

If you edit the base game's playerclasses.json file, and the traits.json (just make the changes you want to see in your mod) then run the modmaker, it'll spit out the exact json patches you need. You can save those and then run the modmaker again and revert your vanilla files to default. So you have patch files, and clean vanilla files. You also shouldn't have any crashes or conflicts doing it that way.
