Mod: Studying from the Skills page

[SET]

So I finally made an actually useful mod: This one allows you to select the two skills you want to study for the week from the Skills page, where you can see the current state of your skills and study bonuses. Just click on any skill and it will be selected as the morning study. Click another skill and it will be your evening study. Your selection is displayed in the lower right corner. If you change your mind just click there to remove the skill again and you can make another selection. There's also a "Done" button to start the week.
While you make your selections the numbers and bars will also update to show your skill level after studying your current selection. Looks something like this:

Create a new text file in your LongLiveTheQueen/game directory, call it skillpage.rpy and dump the following wall of text in there. To get rid of it delete both skillpage.rpy and skillpage.rpyc from that directory.
And with that I'm officially out of ideas for mods.

Code: Select all

# skillpage

Good concept, but I would prefer the opposite approach...the class selection screen is pretty uncluttered in comparison to that one, so altering that to show current bonuses and skill levels would be a nicer effect and have less tendency for information overload than that screen has.

For example, since the mood bonuses/penalties apply to entire categories of skills, you could have + ++ - or -- next to the categories that are affected, then as each category is selected, the specific skills can have their current level next to the skill name to prevent accidentally taking something past 50 prematurely. It would be a HUGE UI improvement while still leaving the breakdown page available in case you need a more detailed reference.

You could also put the exact bonuses next to every skill category that is not zero but that might look a little cluttered later in the game when your training makes almost every category have some bonus or penalty of some kind.

EDIT: Oh, and excellent find on that override function...that SEVERELY simplifies any clean modding efforts!

how do i +1 this post? oh well. What this guy said^^^^.

also it would be nice to actually be useful at the start the game rather then having 0 in EVERYTHING. how about 25 points in the harder to obtain skills like presence and meditation?

Edit: Also something not mentioned by Ohana but is still a good idea; you could basically change a portion of the tab to a different color and match it the the same progress bar from the skills tree. and virtually eliminate the need for a skills tab =D

Doing it the other way round never occurred to me. My usual play style was:
1. Stare intensively at Skills page
2. Decide what skills to train
3. Go to Classes page
4. Select first class
5. Go back to Skills page because I already forgot the second skill I planned to learn
6. Go back to Classes page to actually select the second skill

But I'm not sure I actually understand what kind of data you wanted to see where exactly on the Classes page. Can you take a screenshot and scribble in the data you want to have there? Maybe it's doable, not sure right now.
