Yeah, you can assume they are working as I intended at the moment. I revised most of the mod last week when redoing the wiki

I agree, a few of the animals should be re-looked at and changed to pack animals, but it is ultimately Sarg's decision or if you want to make a patch I am sure he'd be fine with it.

Those that are pack animals, are pack animals

Given that the descriptions of several of the old Forsakens animals say that Forsakens and tribals use them as working animals, could some of them be pack animals, too? The shadow charger seems like it ought to be able to be a pack animal at the very least.

This mod doesn't touch map sizes at all

I have mostly given up on Giddy-Up, it has changed hands way too many times

I can't mount meadow ave's in 1.6 for some reason. Using giddy up 2 forked for mounting.
They have always been mountable. They even show as mountable in the caravan screen, but I can't mount them in a caravan, and they're not mountable in gameplay. Any idea what might be causing it.

I like mounts like ave's because they're fast and they're like chocobo's

That depends on the trade tag of the specific animal. The game does a VERY poor job of detailing that to players
Wolfette Oct 21 @ 10:59pm 
Well most animal traders aren't interested in Animus Vox, only Exotic Goods Traders buy them.
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 21 @ 10:47pm 
The same traders that would buy any other animal!
Wolfette Oct 21 @ 5:59pm 
Grats on that Sarg, I got an interesting query, what kind of Trader(s) buy Alpha Animals? I remember one who would buy the Animus Vox I've been breeding but not what kind of trader they were.

The RimWorld Bestiary wiki is back again! Check it out at https://rimworldbestiary.wiki.gg/

Reminds me of that dwarf fortress bug. Cats were dying from alcohol poisoning because they licked their paws after walking over spilled beer and each lick counted as a full beer lol.
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 19 @ 11:58am 
It doesn't have a custom food preference, it's the same as other RW cats
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 19 @ 11:45am 
Why would it be unable to drink alcohol?
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 19 @ 11:04am 
No

Greetings broder, is there anyway to use the Ravager psycast without a weapon?
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 19 @ 4:00am 
I'm on it, subscribe to this thread and I'll say here when it is ready
Droider Oct 19 @ 3:25am 
Is there a list of every added animal i can view?
Ackmann Oct 13 @ 7:00pm 
Is there a way to see what biomes an animal spawns in, if any? Currently looking for a frost lynx and/or genix, but it would be nice to know how to check for any of the added animals.
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 12 @ 12:23pm 
Fertilized soil is just a terrain. If it is changed via dev mode, there is no mechanic in place to make it "revert"
ImJustConfuse Oct 12 @ 9:54am 
My sand squid died, will the fertilized soil ever go away? The mod that makes my soil prettier doesn't work with fertilized soil, but every time I try to dev mode it back to regular soil the fertilized soil just comes back over time
SmellyFishNuggets Oct 9 @ 2:44pm 
i keep getting an error each time the skip hound is "blinking" ( teleporting ) whenever its near a mountain and it tries to teleport into the mountain idk how to explain this but please fix it, its very annoying and i see potential in the hound rn

I cant cook the empress butterfly and caesar:steamhappy:
nemu Oct 8 @ 11:07am 
Thanks for the answer!
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 8 @ 10:59am 
Not all. Mime and Fungal husk can't be tamed, for example

Multiplayer: no idea. I don't use it
nemu Oct 8 @ 10:17am 
Can all the animals in this mod be kept as pets?
Also, will there be any problems if I use it in multiplayer?
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 7 @ 10:38pm 
I don't even know what you mean, I don't touch anything related to that
[Br] Nasid Oct 7 @ 6:43pm 
is it normal when animals want to leave a location and at that moment they are attacked, but they do not attack in response, although there is a message that they have begun to take revenge, but they ignore you and continue to leave even the most dangerous of your mods?
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 6 @ 11:25pm 
Yes
ShadowX116 Oct 6 @ 6:32pm 
So I realize this is probably just flavor text, but are the Sky Eels actually okay to take in a vacuum?
Is it just weird code-wise to implement Vac-resistant critters?
NinjaBeest Oct 3 @ 12:06pm 
Yo I have an idea for a extension or patch mod for those that want it.
This mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2255432128 is a wonderful mod that makes many animals be pack animals.
I believe many animals in this mod should be pack animals personally, and that main caravan packs mod supports many other mods, but I think the mod author is no longer working on it or willing to continue, so he probably will not patch it for Alpha Animals too nowadays. If you would be willing, my suggestion is to make some animals from Alpha Animals pack animals like the Thunderrox just for one example. But just an idea for an extension or add-on to this mod. I really could use some animals from this mod to be pack animals too reasonably. Thanks and all love. Again I absolutely love this mod thank you.
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 3 @ 10:20am 
I can 100% guarantee this works fine with the whole VE collection lol
bishop149 Oct 3 @ 10:17am 
Hmmm ok, I’ll try checking / changing the load order, if that doesn’t work I’ll start digging deeper. I have a lot of mods but the only ones I have that mess with faction stuff are all VE, pretty sure.
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 3 @ 9:16am 
Then you have some kind of mod conflict
bishop149 Oct 3 @ 9:09am 
If I toggle on "All Factions" then I can see Black Hive listed
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 3 @ 8:32am 
Not sure, I don't remember if faction discovery has a reset button
bishop149 Oct 3 @ 8:11am 
I think I may have messed up.
When I first loaded the mod I'm 99% sure that I said yes to this:

Q: Will this work on an existing save?
A: Yes, except the black hive raids, you'll NEED to add the Black Hive faction when Vanilla Expanded Framework prompts you to do so.

But the black Hive are not showing up as a faction and when I tried to spawn a raid using the dev tools I get: "Faction black hive of def AA_BlackHive has no PawnGroupMakers."

Is there any way to fix this?
Get the option on first load to fire again, in case I accidentally answered incorrectly
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 2 @ 11:07pm 
Yes

Is it intended for Night Aves to not be able to eat live plants? They can eat vegetables, but only after they've been picked.
耀焰溅火 Oct 2 @ 6:42am 
All creatures Zerg creatures by psycasts. I have also reported similar bugs in other mods.He said it was "compspawnerpan" that caused this.
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Oct 1 @ 10:46am 
What Zerg creatures?
耀焰溅火 Oct 1 @ 10:36am 
I'm not sure if it's this mod that's causing it, but the Zerg creatures generated by Alpha Psycast are out of control and not acting as planned.
kaideg77 Sep 29 @ 9:10pm 
Thank you very much
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Sep 28 @ 6:14am 
30 every 30 days
kaideg77 Sep 28 @ 5:03am 
Yeah i saw that dead page ;( I dont suppose you remember how much devilstrand they produce and how long it takes?
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Sep 28 @ 2:42am 
There isn't. Fandom killed it
kaideg77 Sep 28 @ 2:32am 
hey sorry to bother you, is there a wiki or doc that shows all animal stats. Im trying to find out how often devilsheep produce devilstrand and cant find it in game
Sarg Bjornson  [author] Sep 28 @ 12:55am 
It's not an issue: Dub's Bad Hygiene is not compatible with animals with custom think trees
Fangtom Sep 28 @ 12:47am 
Angel Moths seem to be unable to drink with the mod Dubs Bad Hygiene. Is this a known issue?
