• • You can now manually specify the position of the Dog Inventory Button located in your Survival Inventory via config.
• • Talents can now block Amnesia Bone from detraining it. Certain cases resulting in them blocking include being on a long cooldown. However, it is worth noting that players with Operator Permission can bypass this.

================================

• #New DoggySpin system, instead of relying on awfully large spritesheet to render the spinning Dog, DTN now make uses of the Dog Model itself and the Animation to programmatically render the icon. This allow the icon to be render at full framerate and with greater flexiblity (e.g rendering with different wolf variants, collars) without creating more wasteful spritesheet. This also fixed the problem that some user have been experiencing about another mod attempting to "stitch" the spritesheet causing an Exception to be thrown due to it being too big.
• #Dog Bed no longer show missing texture on its particles.
• #You can now limit how many Dog Bed Variants can be rendered via config. When this limit is exceed, Dog Beds will render with the default variant instead. Note that the cache can be reset by doing a resource reload (F3+T).

1.18.43 - 16th March 2025

Implemented Interruptible Sound System for Dog.

• In other words, dogs can now play interruptible sounds which are sounds that can be interrupted by the dog. Currently, upon being interrupted, the playing sound's volume will be instantly halved and followed with a subtle fade out before the sound completely stops.
• • Utilized the Interruptible Sound System for Shaking and Howling dogs: Dogs will now play those action's sounds as interruptible and interrupt when the action itself is interrupt.

• • The Jump key can also be used (without holding the Sneak key) to select the highlighted entry.
• • Added in-game help for every Whistle Modes which can be viewed in the Whistle Screen.

Revamped and formally defined Tactical Mode:

• The formal definition for Tactical Mode is the following: Your dog behaves like in Aggressive Mode but wil respond when being commanded it to attack something far away (which it won't in other modes), currently via the Tactical Whistle. When the dog is in Tactical Mode targets a target far away:

• • It will focus on the target and any Aggressive mode behaviour that cause the Dog to change target will not affect it.
• • The target can, however, be changed with another target when you issues another tactical command on another target or invalidated if the player interupts the Dog.
• • Its MaxDistAwayFromOwner will be increased by 10 as long as it is still targeting it.
