Description
This is my love letter and content addition for the mechanitor playstyle of the biotech DLC.
Ever since the Biotech DLC's release I've dreamed about having a real mechanitor colony.
This (and my other mods) are the try of making that a reality.



This mod is mainly about:
  • controlling how you want to develop your mechanitors. A few skilled ones or a whole colony of low-skilled mechanitors? Choose how to spent your boss-mech-chips!
  • adding a few unique mechanoids
  • adding mechanoid based neutroamine production and additional useage
  • anything I deemed cool enough to put in here

The content of this mod is subject to my liking, it will get tweaked, changed and expanded over time.



Mechanoids




Militors and scrapper can now use mortars just like normal colonist (select the mech and right click the mortar).













Entities




Mechanitor's Tools








Pre-Neutroamine production and industries











Subcored implants
A few implants to control body temperature/pain/robustness with the disadvantage of interference with the immune system.

Subcored clothings
Subcored clothings biocode themself to their first user.





Others








DLC based content:
  • with Royalty: new mortar types for clusters
  • with Ideology: companoid sphere, royal lancer, hightech collar
  • with Anomaly: reshaper, sinistre


Inbuild mod interactions with:

CE?
Thats up to them. Currently CE has its own integrated patch for this mod. I don't have anything to do with it.

Can this be safly added to an ongoing save?
Yes.

Can this be safly removed from an ongoing save?
Probably, with the usual one-time errors for removing a content-adding mod. Back up your saves just in case.



I've got feedback or ideas for this mod!
Please post it in the pinned discussion for feedback, there is also a list of upcomming content.

Me, myself and I.
Carbonpanel retexture is based on Erin's Body Retexture (with permission), check out her awesome mods!
Special thanks to the unofficial rimworld discords modding-channel, the people running it and its precious search function.
Without this awesome community this mod would not exist.

@TheBronzeWarrior
I won't make a standalone version, as I do not want to spent additional time to manage it.
Feel free to do your own version, as long as you link back to the original (when you share it) I don't mind at all.
Mods are there to have fun, if its more fun for you with just the neutroamine production, go for it! :)

Should you need anything from the source code, its on my github:

could you make a version of this with only the neutroamine production? if not, would it be okay if I did so for personal use?

When the HUD breaks, you should have errors inside your player.log or hugslib log. Without them there is nothing I can do.

@PariahOftheMultiverse
It has no name, its part of the CE mod.

@adamok5002
The sinistere essence can be used on reshapers again, just uploaded the fix.
For the shard eating:
The sinistre eating behaivior outside of the reshaper works like a mental break, they will always prefer shards. You can lock them into melee combat (and kill them) to protect your shards, but this anomaly will always crave them even if bioferrite is around. Once killed they will reform themself inside the reshaper after a day - like nothing happend.

Guys any idea why after a while the hud for the Queen and royal lancer just don´t respond anymore?

What is the CE patch called?
adamok5002 Nov 8 @ 6:39pm 
and how do i use the essence to boost the mech's bond? i can apply it to mechs that dont have Sinistre reforming to give them a single use of it, but the Reshaper isnt a valid target to use the essence on
adamok5002 Nov 8 @ 6:33pm 
how do i stop the Sinistre from eating all my shards? i have plenty of bioferrite it can eat, and i tried zoning it away from the shards, but it just keeps going for the shards

Not from my side, no.
But most mods do not need extra support to work with this one (CE is the only one so far I know of).
According to their mod page:
"Total Warfare features progressive difficulty design. The mod reconstructs vanilla combat logic..."
I do not know what that means though.

Mechanoids: Total Warfare Is it supported?

About combat aura ability. I intuitively thought it was activated by player. Sometimes I don't need to active skills to deal with little troubles but it will automatically activated. I can't deactivate it so energy usage Increased will lasts 12 hours. Just a little complaint, and it may not have a significant impact on the waste disposal system.
