I know you're supposed to be able to walk over it because there's a rope ladder on the same tile :)
Yes, I'm stuck there too as well as not being able to grab the key.

I believe this is an issue with minimalSaveState. If you're using the default definition, they have minimalSaveState = true. This means that just disabling the obstacle component will only work until someone loads a game.

I only added the plant clusters for immersion. Old saves do not work with newer versions, so as eburt stated there is the problem. These plant clusters are starting to annoy me!
If you start a new game with version 1.5, you are able to walk through them, as the 'obstacle' box is unchecked. I tested the ability to walk through the clusters on two different PC's as well as in the dungeon editor.

Zo Kath Ra - They're not misspellings, they are typos. There is a lot of text, so I simply added the test to Word then pasted it back into the editor. That's where the issues arise.
- I don't have a solution to everyone's problem. From my perspective it works, so someone with a better knowledge of save issues may be able to help. I don't know what to do. Perhaps message eburt and he'll/she'll know what to do.

Marten_1192 - They weren't an issue in the previous version because the clusters weren't there.

If anyone finds a solution please put it here so everyone can see.

I just downloaded this great mod last week. Version 1.5. Unfortunately i am also stuck at the greater woodlands area behind the 'impenetrable' grass. The weird thing is that i can sometimes walk into similar grass in other points of the game.

Shame, as i was really enjoying this mod* - great work up to that point!

* although i did use a slightly improved party on normal - i tried with a new party and i was destroyed...

Bewildering -
Thanks for the complements - It's nice to hear them. I have removed the plant clusters and replaced them with destructible bushes.
It doesn't matter whether you started with a higher-level party. Just as long as it isn't too easy and it is fun for you.

I'll need to upload this new version as people are stuck.

If you're interested in releasing a fixed version, the easiest thing to do would be to redefine the offending objects. Simply paste the following into your objects.lua and re-export your dungeon and it should work.
SpoilerShow

Code: Select all

defineObject{
	name = "forest_plant_cluster_01",
	baseObject = "base_obstacle",
	components = {
		{
			class = "Model",
			model = "assets/models/env/forest_plant_cluster_01.fbx",
			staticShadow = true,
		},
		{
			class = "Animation",
			animations = {
				sway = "assets/animations/env/forest_plant_cluster_01_idle.fbx",
			},
			playOnInit = "sway",
			loop = true,
			maxUpdateDistance = 5,
		},
		{
			class = "Obstacle",
			hitSound = "impact_plant",
		},
	},
	editorIcon = 176,
	automapTile = "trees",
	minimalSaveState = false,
}
Note that the only difference from the original definition in the asset pack is that minimalSaveState has been set to false here. Hope this helps.

Edit: I assumed from the posts that "forest_plant_cluster_01" was the issue. If not, just redefine whatever is the issue in a similar way.

Thanks a lot Eburt. That's nice that you came up with a solution, and quickly too. However, I have simply removed the offending clusters and I am now uploading another version.
Your help is very much appreciated. Cheers!

Hi guyz. I went a long way since I was stuck last but now I think I need a bit of a help again. I placed all elemental gems on pedestals but I am still missing one water gem (Ive got the one from Greater Woodlands) and one Balance gem (Ive got the one from the 4-power gem fusion). I think the second balance gem is in the Elemental plains laying on a pedestal, probably opened by getting all other gems. Could you please give me a hint where to find the second Water Gem? Thanks!
