Scarification

[Lazerz]

I have tried to do the ritual at the sites, and have a colonist that needs it. went in to development mode and couldn't get it to function. is there a fix to this or is it just broken?

[Lazerz]

I noticed that its says it can start after event but what event is it referring too

[Lazerz]

Do you need the moral officer for this to work i thought you just needed a leader?

Yes, you do need the priest/moral role for that ritual. Leader roles perform their leader speech only.

No, you don't need a moral leader to start the ritual. It just gives a better performance.

The Scarification precept doesn't auto add the ritual in your ideology. This IMO is an oversight. I'm surprised it hasn't been fixed yet since we've got so many fixes.

In Dev Mode you can add it in the Ideology menu on the bottom right by the World button. Looks like a lightbulb.

I've never seen that message in all my hours. I've seen Ritual Expected Soon and then the date rolls around, but never that it starts after a event. Can you provide a screenshot? with you clicked on the Ritual Spot?

I couldn't do scarification with pentagram. You need an actual altar to do it. Maybe that's your case? And that's an oversight for sure.

I do get that message. It doesn't mean anything as far as I know. Just put down a ritual spot from Misc tab and click it. You don't get the option because no one in your colony needs it judging from the right side. It will tell you if a scarification ritual is necessary and you can't do one if it's not.

You'll see the message I'm talking about when you convert and recruit a new colonist if they aren't already scarred.

i have a colonist with the need and i put down a ritual spot and still don't have the option to choose it. i honestly believe that this is a bug at this point

Could be. I haven't encountered it. Not sure how to replicate it. I use scarification a lot.

I even tried recreating my memes in a new game and i had the same issue, so this rate idk what to do

[Lazerz]

I somehow managed to get it to work, i did a prisoner sacrifice then assigned a moral leader and somehow the ability became available
