FAQ

Q0 : Is this compatible with Comba-
A0 : Scroll back to the first section, fartner.

Q1 : Is this mod safe to add and remove mid-game?
A1 : Sure do! But I don't recommend removing it mid-game, maybe with the right tools you could!

Q2 : Will this mod support the previous version of the game like 1.4?
A2 : Unfortunately no, 1.5 rendering changes made it possible to achieve the visualization we currently have.

Q3 : Where do you find the Novakin, do they also spawn in the vanilla faction?
A3 : You can find them with the bounty quest, they are also commonly found in Pirate factions (Base, Cannibal, Waster) and occasionally in Outlander factions, there's integration patches for other mods that added related factions listed in the Compatibility section!

Q4 : Does the xenotype actually glows, is it performance friendly?
A4 : It's only a visual glow, they did not affect surrounding light at all so the mod did perform quite well.

Q5 : Why is it so overpowered and overcomplicated?
A5 : I tried my best to balance and simplify it, give me feedback regarding those so I can improve in the future!

Q6 : Will you add compatibility towards other mods?
Q6 : Sure, let me know which mod that require cross compatibility by posting in Feedbacks Discussion!

Q7 : Are you planning to add more similar mods, what mod could it be?
A7 : Of course, this mod is the first step towards series mods. W-who knowss, I think you sssshould ask some plantsss around what it could be?

@Macrofix you can select the plasma color and facial brand directly by typing their respective name! The plasma body and facial brands gene are intended to randomize both related genes during novakin's birth.

When a new run starts and I use the xenotype editor, I’d like to force a specific plasma color or facial brand (thereby creating a new xenotype based on Novakin).
When I do this and apply the new xenotype, it still randomly selects the plasma color and facial brand. Is there a way to work around this and force the settings?

@sashaeconomic
Don't worry! It's not OP anymore if we compare the old iteration version for the xenotype.
Having living explosive entity hanging around your base sounds like fun :steamhappy:
