Faith Framework

This mod is a framework for Faith and Corruption for my own mod sets. Hence, if you are not a modder, you don't really need to take care about this mod unless any other mod requires it.

This mod provides highly customize-able code sets for Faith and Corruption mechanism. It is something similar to Psycast from the Royalty but uses completely independent resources and code sets.

I will update detailed specification on this page later on but so far this mod contains a code set for;

4. New code sets for abilities
5. Mod Extension to manage configurations and customization of Hediffs and abilities.
6. New code sets for Belief, which is kind of center pole of Faith and Corruption.
7. New code sets for Hediff givers to give proper hediffs for Faithful and Corrupted.

Core component of overall mechanism. Any Hediff that has class of MIM40kFactions.Faith.Hediff_Belief is considered as an independent belief that has its own sub parameters.

It is kind of Hediff_Level, but unlike psycast, it has it's own cachedLevelExperience. Currently, only books can increase this, and when the value reaches to 1f, hediff_belief gets 1 level and the cache reset to 0f.

As per current design only supports only 1 StatDef of EMWH_Faith / EMWH_Corruption / EMWH_BeliefGain and 1 RecordDef of EMWH_KillsFaith, EMWH_KillsHeretic, EMWH_Faith, EMWH_Corruption, EMWH_TimeAsFaithful, EMWH_TimeAsCorrupted each, it has a code to remove any existing belief.

When it is added, there are two initiation process - one is giving the first level message with one ability, and the other is configuring initial allegiance. Initial allegiance is controlled by FaithExtension that is supporting several codes to manage their variables.

If FaithExtension.startsAsCorrupted is true, currentCorruption (resource for corrupted ability, default -1f) set as 0 - otherwise, currentFaith set as 0.

During Hediff Tick, it runs several calculations based on configurable HashIntervalTick by FaithExtension.

At first, once per FaithExtension.changeFaithorCorroptionLongTime (default 60,000) tick, it will check RecordDef EMWH_Faith and EMWH_Corruption. If EMWH_Faith > EMWH_Corruption but currentCorruption > currentFaith, the code will switch value of currentCorruption and currentFaith, then set currentCorruption to -1f, and then reset level of Hediff_Belief to 1 (and vice versa afterwards).

By doing this, I assume that we can make sort of event of sudden conversion or corruption.

Secondly, it runs RechargeFaith() - which contains three parts

1. gaining currentFaith by meditation. Same logic as Royalty meditation, hence user needs to enable Royalty DLC to use this function. This recharges currentFaith by current value of StatDef EMWH_BeliefGain + StatDef MeditationFocusStrength of the object. Upper limits equal to faithValueMax (is equal to value of StatDef EMWH_Faith).

2. Pausing natural recharge while reading a book.

3. Natural recharge: currentFaith + FaithIncreasePerDay (same amount and logic as Royalty Psyfocus) / FaithExtension.natualRechargeDivider (default 400f) * beliefGainMultiplier (equal to value of StatDef EMWH_BeliefGain)

Third one is ChangeLevelbyExp(), quite straightforward as it is named.

Last one is to calculate RecordDef EMWH_Faith from RecordDef EMWH_TimeAsFaithful. It has cached value for previously calculated RecordDef EMWH_Faith, and add value to EMWH_Faith only for the gaps (current - cached).

Conversion rate can be managed by FaithExtension.timetoFaithCount (int). Default is 60000 (or 1 in game-day) and changing this value will boost / reduce speed and amount of RecordDef EMWH_Faith. However, smaller value call this method more often, so I recommend 30,000 (twice per in game day) as minimum.


Not so much important but this section calculate RecordDef of EMWH_KillsFaith, EMWH_KillsHeretic. There are two flags in FaithExtension called isRadical and isPuritan. If isPuritan is true, killing pawn's without Hediff_Belief considered as kill heretics. If isRadical is true, it consideres ans kill faithful. If both false, it won't be counted. If both true, you'll get an error.

Kill count also converted to RecordDef EMWH_Faith / EMWH_Corruption. You can control # of kills per 1 Faith / Corruption by FaithExtension.KilltoFaithCount or KilltoCorruptionCount. Default is 10.

This is a supplementary class to Belief, to let players easily know what kind of allegiance (either Faithful or Corrupted) their selected pawn has.

By FaithExtension.targetBelieftoGetLevel, you can define which belief is source of these sub hediff. Then, it will automatically get severity from target Hediff_Belief and gives buff / debuff per stage. So you have to give same amount of Hediff Stage to any HediffDef that is using this class.

There are two hediff givers but in a context level they works same way - HediffGiver_WhenCorrupted / HediffGiver_WhenFaithful.

They will call currentFaith / currentCorruption from Hediff_Belief, and if the pawn is Faithful, gives hediffs under HediffGiver_WhenFaithful and vise versa.

WIP

There is a separated mod that basically uses all functions of the framework as a working sample.

MIM WH40k Adeptus Ministorum

See above history tab for the details. It seems like I don't have any more letters remain on this description.

1. Conversion ritual for ideology - but it may takes time as it took lots of time for me when I coded similar one in my ideology library.
   
2. Conversion ritual for Anomaly - maybe starts from the feasibility check
   
3. (Maybe?) Biotech Gene integration - but it sounds ridiculous to me as I believe agnosticism in my RL.

Thanks for Ty to give us great game of Rimworld!

I, emitbreaker, did all the coding and design of this mod.
