Mod must be hidden from the author, However it still works just fine. If its not working for you check mod conflicts, Tested all B42 new books and get xp for all of them.

modid is incorrect making the mod unuseable currently

Love this mod, the only grip I have with it is that it gives too much XP per page, so on level 0 the char gets to level 1 at 10% of the book read... to level 2 at 30% or so... So it's not only too fast, but it breaks the flow and immersion. Can you change that, so the 5th book gets you to the 10th level only close to the end of the book?

please don't abandon this mod, its really great!

This seems to not be working with v41 anymore

Doesn't work with Tchernolib/True Crawl, makes books infinite and unable to read them.

this mod disables superb survivors it causes hassle

MODID is the url of the mod instead of a proper mod id, that is why the mod is loading properly, author please fix this.

This mod does not work properly, or very well. Doesn't support Strength and Fitness books either. My comments ignored. I've yet to find the magic formula with time per page to make it work... No matter what book i read it's broken, never get all the XP for the book read. Looking at the code is very confusing too... why is there 2*18 for a value instead of just a value? Very bizarre. Doesn't also accommodate xp boosts or anything, so reading is all messed up overall. Think this mod is actually abandonware.

mod.info file is corrupt

Used to use this mod and it worked, still works on older settings, but when placed into workshop now it loads a "modurl", causing it to not work and stopping any other mods from loading past it. It also doesn't work when I put the mod id directly in. This was tried on multiplayer servers both with and without other mods.

@brutetooth you could probably edit the exp values in the lua

Would there be a way to edit this so reading a book grants a skill level (1, 3, 5, 7, 9) and leaves the vanilla multiplier for the next level (2, 4, 6, 8, 10)?

Could you make this mod compatible with "Gyde's Trait Magazines [B41 & B42]" mod as well? reading recipe trait form that mod pop a lot of error until you stop

Surprisingly enough, its actually a bug with the base game itself

Carving skill book increases carpentry instead and glassmaking skill book generates a ton of errors and gives no exp. no idea why, might be a mod conflict but I'm not really sure about that

Each volume will only work for two level ranges. 0-2, 2-4, etc. Once you hit the cap for that volume, the xp stops.

Perfect, thanks Ano. Ill be travelling back home tomorrow to get a consolidated version out for 41 and take a look at Gydes

I released a B41 specific version that is basically your previous build until this one gets updated to support both B41 and B42.

@Justin any tips on how I can help fix for B41?

Can confirm this and Gydes mod dont work well together, Still works as intended just shoots 1000 errors.

great mod non the less

Working for me on B42, still trying to figure out best speed for realism but 4 seems about right.

Running the mod by itself on V.41. Can't read books. While being used in a huge mod list something is letting me read the books but no XP is given.

@Justin Not currently giving exp and occasionally cannot read a book at all. This might be caused by having partial exp for that level. Not sure.

I'm just running Mod Manager and Cheat Menu: Rebirth because I plan on using more mods later. Thanks for looking into it and helping, happy holidays!

Hans - I'll download that mod and take a look after the Holidays end. Im thinking Gydes Traits Mags edits the same lua file I edit. I can probably work around it.


Ano - Thanks let me know! If not I can try to see if I can get rid of the spaghetti code I made 3 years ago and fix it for B41

Sorry I actually found the issue, it seems to generate errors when reading Trait Magazines from Gyde's Trait Magazines, regular books don't generate infinite errors.

@Justin will give it a shot, thanks!

Hans/Backshots - any mods you guys are using or pure vanilla?

Ano - The structure changed on this so you may have to do the fix you did before since the devs changed how directories work for B42 mods

Just downloaded the mod and now I can't read books (On V.41)

I was waiting for you to update this mod just to try the new build 42. Thanks a lot :D

also reading just dumps infinite errors.

2 errors when using on B42 caught via error logger.

function: update - file: CDDA reading.lua line # 9 | Mod: CDDA Reading

and

attempted index:perk of non-table:null
function: update - file CDDA Reading.lua line # 9 | Mod: CDDA Reading

@Justin, did this break 41? Was working earlier on my MP server.

At long last.

Thanks Justin.

Updated to B42 as requested. Enjoy.

b42 please

Got this to work. Server was missing the folder containing the mod settings from SteamLibrary/steamapps/workshop/content/108600/2565273421

Works in single player with no other mods enabled. Can't seem to get it to work in multiplayer when part of a vetted collection. Not sure whats conflicting and don't see any errors in console.

recipe magazines will appear as if they are unread while using Known And Collected, works with books even modded ones just a visual bug nothing serious

please I need this in b42 🙏🙏🙏

please I need this mod base game grinding is so bad

Make it work on b42 *chants*

**chanting** make it work on b42 **chanting**

use the menu (not sandbox settings) to change reading speed. however be aware you dont need to read the whole book usually.

what IS an issue i think though is recipes not showing up after reading magazines, only after removing it from a save do i see a lot of them (some were ok?)

installing this mod made my character never progress with reading

SHIT MOD don't use this shit it will bug your server.

If you want an alternative mod that works, I recommend Book Consumer.

Doesn't work for me. The skill books will take extremely long to read with this mod.

(in game ofc)
