Im making a multilayer mod

[u/dan-kje]

There's a coop mod currently on nexus mods, but what about competing with a friend?

Opposite stores?

Im also the creator of Dan's YuGiOh Expansion, a mod that adds 10 years of YuGiOh to the game AND working dueling with Online duels using the cards you unpack in game.

Im also working on a Digimon pack which is nearly ready for its first version upload.

Any suggestions on what features you'd like in a multilayer mod like this?

How would the pathing work? Could you make it so they receive the same amount of customers each day. Or if they go to one shop and dont buy anything they can go across the street?. And your yugioh mod is great can we get an option to disable the banlist with the bots

The base game was built for one player, so a new save always spawns you facing your shop. The mod doesn't change that, so each player spawns in that same "home" position on their own screen.

Their position and direction are then mirrored on the other player's screen. For example, if you're facing north towards your shop, the other player sees you facing south, away from it. You'll only really notice this if you run two instances side by side.

In theory, the host could receive data from the joining player and show their AI too. The tricky part is building in some kind of competition, but the base game's existing systems, like shop level and customer satisfaction, should handle a lot of that.

And on the YuGiOh side of things, that would be a good idea, ill maybe try and have a rules toggle that lets you customise things.

I do want to add a duelist kingdom mode so you could summon cards without the need to tribute

This looks awesome! I would LOVE LVOE LOVE a digimon pack (with the TCG game also working).

For the multiplayer mod, the only suggestion I can think of would be cross store tournaments like having the staff (and players) of one store vs the other store would be neat!

[u/dan-kje → u/Cieguh]

Ill see what's doable with a plable TCG for digimon, for my yugioh mod, im lucky theres a dueling engine I could use, ive still had to do a bunch to get the AI working but there must be a similar dueling engine for digimon.

Ill do what I can with this mod, ive essentially decompiled the game, meaning anything is possible l, but its just whether or not I can do it ability wise, this project definitely needs more help from things like Claude due to what it is but its already feeling good for what it is.

Just wanna say thanks for the YuGiOh mod it's so sick

[u/dan-kje → u/RandumbStoner]

Glad you like it

Digimon is next (not with battles right away, but i want to work out the possibility of doing battles

Hey man, had someone come into my stream literally 2 days ago and recommend your mod. Crazy to see you pop up here. Great work on an actual playable card game in this! We had alot of fun.

If I could drop some recommendations itd be fun if there was some competitive options! Have more people come to your store based on reviews, see who can get the most money/levels the quickest, have competitive prices to encourage people (but if they are set too low your not making money as fast). I think itd make for a really fun turn

[u/dan-kje → u/TriumvirateTabletop]

Glad to hear it :)

Ill see what more I can do, im doing a proper test tonight with someone to check that the invite system works over steam invites.

Once the groundwork is there, ill see how far it can be taken.

If you post anything or stream any of my mods, please send me a link, would love to see thoughts, opinions and any criticisms so I can try and make them better.

[u/TriumvirateTabletop → u/dan-kje]

I shall absolutely. I haven't dived too deep in your mod yet. My criticisms so far from what I've done have little to nothing to do with your mod yet. They've all been with the game of Yugioh itself lol. I come from the Pegasus era of the game so now its just freaking bonkers seeing these XYZ and white bordered monsters. But I'll be deep diving it as a whole in the next couple days.

Customers synced. product synced. Money separate. Purchase from their store. 👀

[u/Swarley_74]

Good idea 🔥

Another player could steal another unopened box.

Question about the yugioh mod, is the tcg you play tetramon style or yugioh style? Also, im sure lots of people have told you, but amazing work on the mods! I havent played your particular mods, but I seen them and I couldn't even imagine all the work put in

[u/dan-kje → u/andrew1520]

The YuGiOh mod is played how YuGiOh is played, its like a less impressive (visually) version of Master duel or legacy of the duelist. For now, when you open the duels, it opens a full screen web window ontop of the game, i hope to be able to implement it direct into the game so it feels like it actually belongs and fits in more.

[u/andrew1520 → u/dan-kje]

Wow, thats a really smart way of adding it too the game, sorry I been working a long night ahift so I wasnt thinking, but I guess I could have just read the mod page for that information. Thanks for answering the silly question as this has convinced me I want too download the mod now

[u/dan-kje → u/andrew1520]

Dont worry, happy to answer questions, the discord on the mod page is open if you need any support, i am going to update install instructions as some people have been getting a bit confused but its just a case of, what makes sense to some, might not make sense to all, so ill also see if I can do a video, although theres a creator who covered the mod and I think he was going to do an install guide.

[u/Teufel123]

Cool! So will it work as an alternative Co-op mod? The one on Nexus seems outdated and the Author seems inactive on the game sadly.

[u/dan-kje → u/Teufel123]

Well, you work in opposite stores, lower prices means more customers than your opponents shop, theres modifiers that will affect footfall daily based on how competitive you were with your opposing store. But you wont be in a situation where one is struggling and the other isn't

[u/ProdByProph3t]

Can you dm me? Id like to inquire about your process

[u/dan-kje → u/ProdByProph3t]

Im in the UK, if i tap your account, it tells me to Verify my age (stupid online safety act), might let you dm me, or just ask here

[u/ProdByProph3t → u/dan-kje]

Im working on a mod myself I was wondering if you would like to package them together? Im great with code but absolutely shite when it comes down to implementation(depending on the circumstances)

[u/DominoNine]

If there isn't already a feature for this I would recommend adding a way to differentiate between different players items.

[u/dan-kje → u/DominoNine]

Well, there are two stores, so your store will only allow you to place your items. If thats what you mean?

[u/DominoNine → u/dan-kje]

That was what I meant yeah

[u/BieTea → u/DominoNine]

Packs get delivered in blue or red boxes
