[REL] Favourite Colour v1.4 [63180]

Did you double check that they are enabled? Sometimes I accidentally disable mods when changing things around to to the dependences.

Yeah, that could be it. Another way to check it so install the "Installed Mods List" mod, which adds a "MODS" button to the main menu. It will show you all of the enabled mods.

If the Favourite Colour mod is working properly, then SETTINGS -> UI should have this:

I check that it was indeed enabled. I'll try it again and report my findings. Screenshots to follow.

No luck. Putting up some screenshots that may help.

Edit: I added the "Installed Mods" button, it shows the favourite colors mod as installed. Still no changes, though. :/ Sorry to be such a nuisance.

Are you getting errors in the coherent debugger when you open up settings?

Negative. I've tried uninstalling Hotkeys since it could be conflicting with the menu settings, then reinstalling favourite colors, but no good.

Really strange. I deleted my Planetary Annihilation settings folder and installed the same mod loadout you had in your screenshot, but the settings for the favourite colour still appeared.

Could you try renaming the "Planetary Annihilation" folder from your screenshot to "Planetary Annihilation.bak". Then start Planetary Annihilation once to regenerate a new one. Then use PAMM to just install the Favourite Colour mod (and its dependency on the Settings Manager mod). Does it work then?

Keep in mind that this will delete all of your settings, but you can undo it by deleting the newly generated "Planetary Annihilation" folder and renaming the old "Planetary Annihilation.bak" folder back to "Planetary Annihilation" if it doesn't work.

I've had the same problem as Aramai. Using the work around you detailed above hasn't showed the settings-ui tab options for the favourite colour

Is Settings Manager Mod up to date and activated ?

Indeed it is, it was freshly installed using the work around also. I also checked using the installed mod list in game after my first try with the workaround and that showed that was activated.

I get this error too. Ready for something weird?

1. Clean install dFavouriteColour
2. Copy dFavouriteColour\ui\mods\dFavouriteColour\* to rSettingsManager\ui\mods\rSettingsManager
3. Update rPAMM\ui\mods\ui_mod_list.js, replacing "/dFavouriteColour/" with "/rSettingsManager/" for the three files (eg. "coui://ui/mods/rSettingsManager/dFavouriteColour_settings.js")
4. Start PA. It now works.
5. ???????

Ok, this has me seriously scratching my head.
I was just trying to update my Unit Info mod, and I'm getting the same issue.

In both cases, The Coherent debugger shows the mod files fail to load with the following error (I added some additional output in common.js to get the error details):

Code:

GET coui://ui/mods/dFavouriteColour/dFavouriteColour_global.js  [common.js:14]

__proto__: DOMException

modinfo.json, mods.json and ui_mod_list.js all look correct, as does the mod paths etc.

File permissions problem somewhere in the mods folder? This isn't happening for me, but if XMLHttpRequest is failing to get a local file, I would guess it's a permissions problem.

I guess it's also possible that the way XMLHttpRequest works could end up hitting a firewall... maybe.

Tried a completely fresh install of Planetary Annihilation after ensuring all the related folders and registry entries were removed. Installed only settings manager and favourite colors. Same issue as before. This really tickles my brain.

Still the same problem is you run as administrator? The error raevn saw in the debugger still sounds like a problem with permissions somewhere in the mods folder.

That's the first thing I looked at when I saw it, but it all seems to look OK. I even re-created the mod manually rather than through PAMM and got the same issue.

Really strange. I just did "chmod -r dFavouriteColour_global.js" to remove the read permissions and I indeed get the same DOMException that raevn posted down to the same error code... Changing the permissions back fixes it again of course.

Are there any firewalls that could mess with this?

Does this just happen with dFavouriteColour_global.js? Or do the other two files give the same error?

Are you running a firewall? Is there a webserver running locally on port 80?

Here is a screenshot of the coherent debugger errors I receive while accessing Settings => UI.

Yeah, that's probably the same error that raevn got.

Are you sure this screenshot is from Settings -> UI though? It doesn't seem to load any of the scripts specific for the settings screen. It looks like the screenshot was for the main menu page. It should at least try to load "coui://ui/mods/rSettingsManager/rSettingsManager.js" and "coui://ui/mods/rSettingsManager/rSettingsManager.css" as well as "coui://ui/mods/dFavouriteColour/dFavouriteColour_settings.js"
