@b621204 Where abouts is the option in Tweaks Galore? I have it but can't find the option to change the population limits - I'm on 1.4 if that makes any difference

Can I use different values on different saves?

hi veeot dragon, are you also running real ruins? (if so, i think the github page for that mod has fixed it)

@b621204 Note for myself: now that I have been reminded of this, don't forget in a few months, and repeat the cycle.

will this be updated to function with version 1.5? mainly asking because i am trying to track down a bug that prevents a new world from being generated (the game doesn't freeze it just returns to the generation page.)

@b621204 ngl ive just spent about an hour trying to remember the name of that mod and scrolling the mod pages looking for that mod just to stumble upon your comment after giving up

@Simmin : it's been like that for years, as far as I know.

Note for myself: Tweaks Galore included this function (trying to condense mod list)

there is an issue where the population intent doesnt change until the settings are adjusted, so it basically rests to default everytime you start up rimworld

oops.. i should login to steam more. updated :)

The Hermit options sets the population intent to what would be a standard colony with 4 people. Instead, it should set it to a standard colony with 20 people (the max value).

To fix the Hermit option 0-0-0-0-0-1. Max Population having a value of 1 and all others having a 0.

That will minimize colonist joiner events. They will still be possible but as infrequent as the base game with a colony of 20+ colonists.

Works on 1.5

Can confirm it works perfectly fine with all of 1.5

Works fine in 1.5 so far.

Doesn't prevent CreeperJoin events in Anomaly, not sure about vanilla join events as I disabled those incident types. Doesn't prevent questjoin events.

I don't know if this mod isn't modifiying population intent correctly, or if vanilla doesn't care enough about population intent to start with.

I use this mod for solo playthrought, with the hermit settings. Yet I still have people calling me on the radio to join me. For example people being prisonner at a camp.
Is that a normal thing ? Since it say I should not get recruit event/quest. Maybe It doesnt count as one ?

@Three this mod changes the population intent. I have to assume that the mod still works exactly the same as it did in 1.4 because nothing has changed.

My mom said it's my turn to ask for 1.5 update

Would love to see this updated! I've been using it for a very long time and it's perfect for my needs.

please update! :)

@tatzelwesen Tweaks galore has this feature and is updated to 1.5

Does anyone know a mod that does this, and works for 1.5?

hey will it be update to 1.5 ?
thanks

plz update to 1.5 soon

can I add this to my multiplayer game mid save?

Is the mod still valid? Isn't the size of the population now determined by the 'PopulationIntent' indicator?

@alemismun this is an issue with HugsLib, sadly a lot of other mods still depend on it. There is a forked version on Github and there's also a mod options sort mod that fixes this issue.

Edit: Dynamic population (not variable as the description says for some reason) appears on the mod settings, but not if you search for it, you need to manually scroll down the page and find it amongst all mods to reach it. For some reason.

Same issue as Waggy and Era. However, I can edit the options from the mod menu itself through the advanced options. Not sure if it applies to the game itself though.

Greetings. I Wonder, how does this mod interact with hotseats ? Does switching to new storytellers disable this mod, especially storytellers with double the population ? Thanks in advance.

Settings were broken if you didn't have HugsLib enabled, removed the dependency as no longer needed :)

I found a version of this called "Dynamic Population Unlocked" which is working!

I can't find where to adjust the settings in 1.4

It's not; issue with my modlist. Weird that the options menu for just this mod would disappear. I'll be back after figuring out what's going on lol

Hmm is the mod option menu bugged? Doesn't appear/doesn't have the "mod options" button in the ingame manager.

marco, if you have more colonists vanilla will send more enemies

Does the mod change the numbers of ennemys on a raid ?

So just to understand it right :)

Normal there is a soft cap of 13, and critical of 18, i can change that and use any Vanilla mod storyteller ?

Hi Moldrax,

Enable HugsLib and you should be OK!

Hello,
I am getting those two errors:

ReflectionTypeLoadException getting types in assembly DynamicPopulation: System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException: Exception of type 'System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException' was thrown.

Mod Dynamic Population did not load any content. Following load folders were used:
- E:\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\294100\1658712035\1.4

Any help how to fix those?

Was still having the issue, but I narrowed it down to steam for some reason not updating the mod. Unsub+resub fixed it. Thanks @sewer rat!

Issue resolved :)

@Nick I really don't. I learned just enough to check whether the mod was changing the underlying mechanic, tested it a few ways to confirm, and then forgot.

Right now, I just go to this mod's settings every time I boot up my save. Annoying, but it's fine until the issue is addressed, and I don't know any alternatives.

@Wolvereness do you know what the numbers happen to represent? If I have it at the default 0 does that mean no more colonists will join?

Agreed with the values, i tried setting it to the same as double population and still nothing seems to be happening, still feels like vanilla for colonist recruitment.

Also confused on how this mod is suppose to function, what values are good. I have played around with it for almost a day and still no colonist joins and its extremely hard to recruit prisoners as they are killed instead of downed.

@Thunderkleize Yeah, the options for the mod where you can adjust the numbers.

@Wolverness what interface? The mod option?

This appears to only take effect if the interface is opened. Been going through a new 1.4 game, and noticed the population was difficult. Confirmed through the Population intent that it doesn't set the values until I open the interface.

If you could pleas add a set to default that would please my ocd so good and I will give succ
