Hi all. This version is obsolete. Here's the 1.1/1.2 version:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2019227986

@SmolPP - You select a pawn and then you right click the mission or recruitment board and it works. If you are using this for 1.1/1.2 then you should go to the new and updated version designed to work with the latest RimWorld.

@Divine Luna - They work just like the vanilla medicine, did you enable this mod mid-save? I wrote an FAQ about it, it can be because the game auto-disables them for pawn use if this mod is newly added

@haunted medic - Yes

I can't live through update 1.2 without my vending machines!

How does the Recruitment and Mission board work? When I right click with a pawn they're empty.

How do I make my pawns use those fancy new medkits? They for some reason ignore them :(

louis from left 4 dead?

Absolutely no problem, mate. Appreciate all the effort you're putting into this!

Here's the 1.1 version:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2019227986

Radio and Fridge is back thanks to valrossenOliver and Dninemfive, sadly we lost the shuffle and autoplay feature. Oh well.

1.1 version needed to be separate due to bloated 300MB size if it was 1.0 cross compatible. I'd have had to duplicate the tune sound files which would have caused unnecessary disk space shenanegans. I am still awake at 5AM to update this mod, and in 2 hours I have to be ready for military college. You lot better be getting tacticool over this update.

New update has removed "Red Horse" tab and includes all buildings within vanilla tabs. There's also new HESCO walls and recruitable pawntypes (if you have RH factions enabled). Enjoy.

when is it coming to steam and not maunaly via fourms and 3rd party, seeing i have a fear of messing my shit up

ABERRRRGAKDSFK!!!! YAAASSSSSSS!
*Runs off into the night cackling like a mad man*

BETA 1.1 is out here: (Google Drive)

It’s a bit messy at the moment. Check it out if you can’t wait, mission bird and red phone working, no known errors.

i need this mod updated to 1.1 i've become so reliant on the RH Fuel Generator by comparison to the vanilla one its ridiculous xD

I can attest to this personally. 250 boxes of delicious crayons did not stop the army of enraged mid-evil knights (with shield belts) from murder-stabbing half my colony into a fine pink mist...

@Dad - The truth is, Vending Machine ans Black Hat Station combo was not an accident. Yes, it's meant to be there to cut out the worries of food production.

Red Horse is meant to cut out as much problems or time consuming things as possible so that the player can focus on combat. Black Hat Station costs time and creates greater risks of high threat raids, Vending Machines overcharge, and again adds to the wealth problem. You can abuse this as much as you want but your colony isn't invincible just because they no longer worry about food or medicine production, when the 8000 raid ticket comes with Scyther spams that were dropped in the centre of your colony, you'll know what I mean.

There are consequences implemented by vanilla already, the attempts to add the FBI was just a bonus.

@Dad - It's not as free as you think. Raid tickets and how badly the storytellers want to kill you correlates to how much wealth your colony has. If you are sitting with 100k silver but you don't have the technology or defense to fend off a 100k wealth raid then you played yourself. It's easy to recommend this or that complex system or fancy mechanic, but it already took 2 years to implement FBI raids because I don't have an easy access to a coder.

When FBI raids finally came it didn't work perfectly. It caused a few bugs and then people came to me to ask for it to be taken down. Now that it's gonna be off, I am asked for it to be put back, or some other complex system. It's tricky to find middle ground.

@Chicken Plucker I understand now is a pretty shitty time to flag this, since you're busy updating for 1.1, but the black hat station is pretty overpowered, and should probably be balanced by raids - it is an infinite, and easy source of silver, so why not make it proc -rep with factions, or cause raids when they catch onto you? Between that and the fridges, you can sustain an entire colony without having to plant or hunt because of the infinite silver > food loop you can create.

Honestly that's fine, if it means getting this out earlier. I can live without specifically choosing a quest.

@R. Mandrew - Sorry but besides the other version in the description I've abandoned 1.0 support. Old versions from Google Drive has been removed due to the mod taking so much space and needing to be cleared out regularly.

I am removing the FBI from the black hat station for 1.1 and that's the action I'm taking to reduce issues, other than that I am very out of time and I can't play around making different versions for specific needs, my apologies. Take care.

Hey all. Spent a few days fruitless trying to recover our fridge and tacticool radio. They're gone for now, especially when Jecrell who originally coded them hasn't even updated his original code from his own mods.

Then there's our medical bed.. I plan on scrapping the medical bed and all of it's medical equipment with the exception of the stretcher. Why? Well besides me trying to gun for a different artstyle, I am told it's just not different enough from vanilla hospital beds. I may keep the stretcher.

News regarding the mission board: You can only select one option now, it was the only way to save it. It's a random quest giver for 500 silver. This is due to 1.1 changing how quests work, they are no longer IncidentDefs, they are scripts. The QuestGiver_Random is an incidentDef which let me put it on the board.

Lots of content getting cut but that's not too bad, minimalizing. Thoughts please.

Really excited for an update on this one. I can use it in conjunction with the "Reunion mod" and slowly get more of my custom characters if it's taking too long, the current run I'm on I've only found 2 over 4 years out of 13 pawns.

Regardless thank you so much for making this mod in the first place since your mods are some of the greatest things to ever happen to the game.

Oh, yeah, I saw the version without Black hat/VR, but sort of wanted to keep them but without the FBI for now. I love the fact that they raid your base, though. Any possibility that you have an older 1.0-version available anywhere? Won't jump on the 1.1 train just yet.

R. Mandrew - No black hat and VR version in the description, I’m probably gonna disable the FBI for 1.1 till they are perfected, or perhaps make the black hat station it’s own mod.

Unfortunate that the fridge will be removed. : ( The new stuff looks very promising!

Any way for us to roll back to a version without the FBI-units given the somewhat buggy nature of the no-knock raids? : ) Love the mod, but suddenly all of my raids are no-knock sapper raids.

Hello all. Update will not be soon.

Besides being out of time and being very busy, some of the textures of the mod are facing an overhaul on it's art. The next return will see this mod being renamed once again.

A few things such as the Fridge will be removed, sadly since it's not performing as it's meant to and the coder for it has abandoned the fridge while the more up-to-date ones out there from other mods are working the way it should be.

Lots of plans to add new furniture and buildings to finally seal the deal for this mod. More details here: https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=40519.795

Update soon?

If you have a mod that does anything to sappers, the FBI obviously remain unchanged. Would it be possible to get some sort of toggle the sappers from the FBI or remove FBI all together?

hi so its a nice mod to bad i yust played it couple of days before the update. are you going to update this mod ?

@Divine Luna - That's because silver prices are multiplied. I don't have control on what is written on the information tab, it's a vanilla feature that's just there. I have zero access to what the information tab says, it's not in .xml, maybe it's in C# but nobody is willing to delve into that rabbit hole to stop a vanilla feature from being itself.

@Bon - There's a VR mod already out there from which the VR stations here were taken from, I think it's called "Training Console"

vending machines have weird prices:
when you press 'i' it says nuka-cola quantum costs 30 silver, but when you look into work details it actually costs 300 silver.
They are strong and all, cost is somewhat justified, but if possible please make prices consistent

Could you add simple mod only vr? or training something?

ok i just have the mods in a incorrect load order.

@Despacito 2 - Yes

@dimullaney5 - If the law doesn't get you, someone else eventually will. say no to online theft

Is it compatible with combat extended fastrack? I am using the latest version of CE: FT

FBI: say no to online theft Me with ear pods in: WHAT?

Eyyy thank you friend for informing me you awsome

@DevilDog - Thank you, new CE FT update went live yesterday so hopefully there’s no more issues

@aggressivebees - PC Research can’t do above microelectronics research because the tier of tech is too high, that’s why they switch to the hi-tech one despite being slower, it has the tech.

@dimmullaney - I didn’t wanna do voice likes because repetition of voice lines can get very tiring compared to sound effects, it’s uncanny to hear the same phrase made by a human being, uttered exactly the same way each time. It worked in MGS V since it was highly randomised.

Anyway, if it were to ever happen it’d be for an MGS V mod in the future

How do i make my colonist prioritize researching at the PC reaserch desk? some of the research requires for me to have a multi-analyzer and they research there instead of the PC

@chicken plucker - i have a suggestion how does a metal gear solid alert mod where the message sounds are the voices from the camp omaga CP sound? e.g ALL FIRE TEAMS THIS IS CP

Ayy happy to hear i was really bummed when I tried making a game and then found out that these amazing mods were incompatible with CE but nevertheless keep up he amazing work friend

@DevilDog - Hello, I’ve gotten word from the CE:FT team that their patches for this mod is ready for the latest update, just that they haven’t released this month’s update yet. They’ve fixed a ton of mods and are still doing so. For now I’ll mark it incompatible but the other version in the description will be compatible and you can safely switch to this mod with faction discovery also later for a smooth transition

Good sir i got a question is this now compatible with CE ffast track also pretty awsome mod

@SonOfNitrous - This is an edit of an earlier comment. I needed to calm down.

The mod has added food, it’s added a mercenary pawntype with unique clothing and it adds drugs. Nobody went to me to say “hey I thought this mod was about furniture!”

I’ve been trying to implement this feature for a year. I’ve gotten complaints, asking why there’s no consequences for the OP silver production with illegal activities. I’ve told the last person this, there’s a version of this mod in the description that doesn’t have the Black Hat Station. If you don’t like the new update here, either switch to that version or stop using this mod because Chicken Plucker won’t do what I want him to do.

I’ll repeat it again, there’s already a version that doesn’t have the FBI. It’s in the description. If you don’t like that, no, I’m not making another version or rolling back an update that will break other people’s saves.

I think @--Stumpy-- is talking about FBI
This mod is about Furniture - isnt it?

@--Stumpy-- - I'd love it if you could help me by leaving a description of the issue, but I assume I know what you're talking about. Please be more helpful next time instead of leaving snide questions, I don't need it.

Here's some bullet points:
- There's a version of this mod that removes the black hat station. It's in the description.
- I don't control your raids, storytellers do, I can only tweak the "combat power" of pawntypes, which means what they're worth in raid tickets
- If you're running hundreds of mods, it's natural your game will slow and eventually crash
- If you're on the endgame with high wealth, it's natural storytellers will send you hundreds of enemies, be it insects or mechanoids

I'll add the changes today, and hopefully it at least helps massively.

Hey all update is coming out today, I'll tweak the FBI combat power to reduce their numbers.

I'm still waiting for dninemfive to fix a few things (i.e. sappers being labelled as no-knock raids) since a lot of my mods rely on these third party coders that have decided to donate their time and help add features. I am getting busier and modding is rapidly fading away from my schedule.

Any chance that the game breaking raids can be made into their own mod?

@chicken plucker - i dont need to worry i have an arsenal of weaponry thanks to umbra

Cool beans

@chicken plucker - the FN FAL bias is strong!

@dimullaney5 - the feds will get you one day, maybe through the IRS

@Anomaly - fast track has patched it but they haven’t gone live with an update.
