How would I go about adding new icons to the game
Old topic, but i searched for it here first before discovering that there's a guide on ficsit.app:
https://docs.ficsit.app/satisfactory-modding/latest/Development/Satisfactory/IconLibrary.html
It's very simple to add icons and stamps, all you have to do is to create a Data Asset
FGIconLibrary and fill the array with your icons, no coding whatsoever.5 replies

Adjust volume of a custom Boombox tape
SubscribeToDynamicOptionUpdate allowed me to update volume on the fly when dragging sliders in Audio Settings, that is resolved and is working nicely.But the issue with the multiplayer is still open. Events for a Boombox instance seem not to fire on clients that didn't interact with this specific instance. I tried binding on Construct, AudioVolumeChanged, PlaybackStateChanged, etc. - none print to the log of the second player until they open this Boombox's UI. After second player touches the Boombox, the first player can pick it up and any event will now fire for the second player too.

Adjust volume of a custom Boombox tape
My solution has a multiplayer issue.
In single player it works fine, but in multiplayer other players don't hear modded music until they touch that boombox instance (open boombox's menu and close it). Unequipping into inventory and re-equipping the boombox makes other players 'forget' it and stop hearing its music. Walking away too far from a playing boombox also makes you 'forget' about it, and after coming back you won't hear it play until you touch it again. It only affects songs that have
Voice Volume linked to an RTCP, songs without volume control always work for all players.
I suspect it's connected to this point i made:
5. You also want to update RTCP value once in Construct event, otherwise tape will play silently until you adjust the volume slider.I suspect that RTCP value defaults to 0 (even though i made sure to make default value 1 in Wwise) and all songs play with volume 0 until you update RTCP with a value from a slider. Here i suggested doing it in
Construct event of BPW_BoomBox in order to initialize RTCP, but i guess in multiplayer this event does not fire for other clients?
What can i do to make sure a RTCP initializes on all clients?22 replies

Adjust volume of a custom Boombox tape
This approach has an issue, though, where after changing Audio Settings (volume of sound effects, equipment, boombox), volume of the custom tape won't update until you touch the volume slider of a boombox or reload a save. Which is not that big of a deal imo.

Adjust volume of a custom Boombox tape
That's a valid point. Tested it and boombox slider is indeed per boombox instance, so what i was trying to do is not the right way.
Additionally, boombox volume should be affected by audio settings
Effects Volume > Equipment Volume > Boombox Volume. None of which affect modded music by default.
Okay, then i guess i should try adding RTPC voice volume for each individual music track instead of a bus, and then bind to something in the equipable boombox blueprint to be able to access currently playing AK event and adjust RTPC from there.22 replies

How to replace a font?
Well, shit.
Binding SetupText works and affects even signs built before the mod, but the font changes only after you edit a sign, so after save reload all signs use old font again and you have to modify sign for it to re-render its screen with a new font.
Which means that i have to find a way to mod a layout when a sign is loading from a save. It probably doesn't use a layout manager for that, because i think signs save their layout directly. I think i should bind on something of every layout instead? I'll try that next time.
Btw, BPW_SignLayout class is actually
BPW_SignLayoutManager, it has mTexts map of String - RichTextBlock and font is a property of a text block.26 replies

Oooh, nice! Thank you. This bit of info is the last missing piece that i needed. At Construction time text boxes were still missing and i didn't have time yet to play around with it more, but now it should be easy.

How to replace a font?
Yeah, i figured that it's something not possible to do via CDOs (directly). So far i've managed to replace font in signs by making my versions of sign layouts and swapping them in CDOs, and for text boxes in UI menu - by making my inherited copy of InteractWidget and swapping it too. It works, but it would be nicer not to replace layouts, because then new font only works on newly built signs, and signs go black when you remove the mod.
I'd like to explore your suggestion of using hooks. I tried to figure them out, but don't quite understand how it's done. Is widget hooking has to be done in C++ or can it be done in blueprints?
I can see Widget Blueprint Hooks mentioned in example mod's RootInstance module. Is that the thing that i need or should i look into something else for hooking Construct event of a widget?
