Named Literature

Description
More flavor text and functionality for literature items found in game.

[ko-fi.com][discord.gg]

This mod does not use item scripts. Everything is lua based.
What this means is that loot-tables are not overwhelmed or flooded with books.
Applied to: Books, Magazines, HottieZs, TVMagazines, Comic-Books, Newspapers, Wordsearches, Crosswords.

  • Titles are applied randomly to books from a list of over 3000+ titles.
  • The 3000+ titles are sorted by year/decade/century written, with a preference for modern (1993); include every century up to the 4th.
  • Book descriptions and tooltips will also include author and publication date for extra flavor (text).
  • Magazines utilize a similar system but just of magazine titles from a list of 60+ titles.

  • Additional Features:
    • Literature items can be re-read for a diminished stress/boredom/unhappiness relief. (If given enough time you can re-read for full amount.)
    • Literature items are color coded (based on a seeded process), colors should always be consistent. (Coloring 3D models not yet working/may not be possible.)

When I have more time I'll look into incorporation. Haven't checked how they handled their book titles.

For example mine can be reread and forgotten.

@Dudah Have you not played B42 yet? If you had, you'd know that there is books and magazines and even newspapers are already named. This mod has basically been incorporated into B42 and isn't needed.

B42?

Those particular items don't have unique titles, but do have all the other features. Rereadability with diminished returns, etc.

The description says newspapers, crosswords, wordsearches, and TV guides are included, but does not appear so :-o

I love the mod but can you make it so it takes longer to read the books
Chuckleberry Finn  [author] 8 Sep, 2024 @ 10:22am 
Yes, recipes that require magazines/books/etc will work.

Magazine and books item id of the same than vanilla if a recipe needs the vanilla item, yours magazines will be used as ingredient in a recipe requesting for a vanilla magazine?
