Hello 17, I will check the Vanilla Factions Expanded - Deserters to see if I can add it.

pls add support for VE Deserters, cluster shell, armor piercing shell etc.

If you do not know the specifications of "LoadFolders.xml", please read the following Ludeon official reference.

Multi-version mods in RimWorld [docs.google.com]

Done. The following description was found in LoadFolders.xml, and the corresponding description for 1.4 existed in About.xml.

Hello professional ninjaneer.
I'll chek soon.

there's no 1.4 version in files, might cause bugs

Update : 14 Mar, 2024
v1.5.0
- Update tags for Rimworld 1.5.x.

Update : 7 Oct, 2022
v1.4.0
- Update RimWorld 1.4.3509 (unstable).

Don't worry! NP.

I have realized I am an idiot and never allowed them in the mortar "shell" tab. Thanks for the mod and all the help!

HelloJabroni Pepperoni.
This mod doesn't create its original shell, so try removing this mod from your mod list and starting a new game. If you can fire it, this mod may be the cause. If it doesn't fire, it's a problem with the mod you're using. please confirm. thank you.

Thanks for update! I am playing with this mod but the antigrain shells are unusable with some modded mortars. The M2 mortar in Rimmunation and the artillery all cannot use the antigrain shell. Any idea what might be causing this issue?

@Emelio Lizardo
Hope that the development side of RimWorld will handle that, or the mod author of CE will create it. It's impossible with xml.

What would be nice is to have a bin like the nutripaste bin adapted to the mortars like an ammo magazine.

Hello Dizzy Ioeuy!
In 1.3, the cost of steel consumed by this mod is close to the same number, and this mod is adjusting the amount of chemfuel.

But, depending on the difficulty of the game, it will return to the previous cost, so i am making adjustments in that case.

P.S.
1.3 have a lot of changes, there are good points, bad points in 1.3. Please enjoy them after they are officially released.

Thanks for updating. I'm opting out of the beta until mods catch up, but am terribly excited and happy to see you updated!

v1.3.0
- Update for 1.3 Preview beta

@Cream of Botulism Soup
Hello Cream of Botulism Soup.
Conversely, the material cost of the wall may be too low. It has the same thickness as one person.

Thanks, though I probably would have reduced the cost even more, doesn't make any sense for a single shell to use up 5x more steel than a wall segment...

I am using mods to make steel less common and not naturally occurring. Needed to bring the price of shells back into reason. This allowed that.

Now to take on a combat drop base...

@Dizzy Ioeuy
Hello Dizzy Ioeuy.
I hope your colony can maintain a stronger defense. have fun!

Nice mod. thank you!

@Raccoononi
Hello Raccoononi. That's a good suggestion.
What are the solutions that research needs to create a "Antigains shell"? Changed techLevel from the current industrial era to the space age.

I will think about it. Thank you.

Hello. I love the cost reduction on the regular mortar shells but I personally would like to keep antigrain a rare treasure in my playthroughs. Do you think it will be easy for you to add a toggleable option for whether or not Antigrains can be crafted? Thanks.

@8faiNt ı♣ı
Hello. I am happy if this mod makes your play comfortable.

@pingouin rugbyman
Hello, pingouin rugbyman.
Yes. But, in order to actually support 1.1, it was necessary to add tags that were not allowed in 1.0. That causes an error to be logged at the start of the game. However, they do not hurt the game at all, so don't worry. RimWorld v1.0.2408 should continue to work without any problems.

Read v1.1 changes:
https://ludeon.com/blog/#7869455921001629257

I may migrate to 1.1 completely to avoid confusion in the future, so download the 1.0 version from the non-Steam download guide and save it locally (in the Mods folder). It is recommended.

did it still works with 1.0 ?

Update : Feb 18, 2020
v1.0.4
- Now Antigrain Warhead production need prerequisite research "starship reactor" must be completed.

Update : Feb 18, 2020
v1.0.3
Update for RimWorld 1.1.2547 rev633

Version 1.1 support :
Since the specification of 1.1 is still being confirmed, it will be only 1.0 for a while. I plan to start supporting 1.1 as soon as the confirmation work is completed.

@NylonWorms
You are wellcome!

@proxyer thank you

@NylonWorms
Hello NylonWorms.
In this mod, only the production menu is added, so the CE support of the shell is based on vanilla.

does it work well with combat extended? I'm just curious.
