Soft incompatibility with vpe, namely it heals the powering hediff the power psycast by default, set to 0 to fix, it possibly messes with others

For those of you who haven't figured it out, you need to have ten heads in the Immortis Extractor before you can use an extraction trigger. In addition you need to use an extraction trigger before the extractor hits 100%.

@Anker If you'd like to have them come back from that, there's a setting in the mod options to survive brain destruction. Without that, though, yes, immortals are definitely not invulnerable.

Don't get too placated with immortals. You'd be surprised how easily they can die to a brain shot from a dangerous foe.

@Sorenson Check for the Remove Death Amnesia mod in the workshop.

Is there any way to have them retain their work assignments?

@Svela I understand the confusion, I was just describing what happened recently when I tried to restart the mod I expected the immortality to be removed from my game altogether but it was not. My issue is that the mod seems to be working properly in all other aspects but not when I try to behead a DOWNED immortal pawn/animal to advance immortality, I've had to use dev mode to add immortality on new colonist but I want them to progress naturally which has become impossible

I got way too many immortals on my map. I got chickens and 1 in t are immortal so we got lightening striking every 2 to 5 minutes. It's getting out of hand. I set the spawn chance to 0.6 but their still popping up like rabbits.
God forbid I start breeding rabbits.

Help me out, is there a way to make it exceedingly rare even if I gotta edit a config or something?

Could use a scenario to start with an immortal. If I had to guess, it'd probably be a solo start like Rich Explorer.

@FokxTit Dev mode will help you here. Activating dev mode in the options menu and then activating god mode at the top of the screen (the tiny icons, furthest one to the right) will allow you to remove hediffs from a pawn's health tab. Furthermore, the more options button in the health tab will allow you to activate seeing hidden hediffs. You'll need to remove immortality from each individual pawn one at a time.

Once removed, immortality should not reappear on new pawns unless you have the mod activated.

I've unsubscribed and reloaded the game without the mod but pawns still have immortality. I then re-subscribed and loaded a older save but the issue still isn't resolved! Is there a solution to this issue as I do not want to re-start a whole new colony! does anyone have a fix or any idea what to do once "must designate downed or dead pawns with a head" please??

*500 Mortalis, 3 Luciferium, 10 Chemfuel. Sorry x.x My bad, I wasn't in-game at the time.

CB3: I can see that. TBF, tho, they are partially-organic and do have brains. The fact that they are mostly inorganic, however, makes me agree with you. Allow them to have an organic brain/nervous system that can come back/regen and be implanted into a new body, sure, but I don't see how the plasteel & steel body could be regrown without additional materrials.

Maybe mechanoids should be exempt from immortality... I had a scorcher rise as an immortal

Yup. I think it's 60 mortalis, some luciferium, and another thingy to make crystals. Note that the Mortalis is dirt cheap to buy from other factions. Note that this is NOT the same thing as Koma, though it also used Mortalis to make; it's a temporary massive healing booster that also multiplies the pain the user feels.

You need to implant the crystal in the brain (AFAIK heart does not work; I could be wrong), then, wait 60 days and they will become Lesser/Stunted Immortals and eligible for the auto-res and increasing their power viz beheadding other immortals. Note that the res usually isn't instant.

Spoonk you gotta use the Mortalis to make a crystal and implant it into a pawns brain or heart and then let it dissolve, next timethey die,theywillcome back,the brain is used to make mortalis

I am a little confused on what to do to make my pawns immortal without cheating it in -- I make my colonists eat the immortal brain but it doesn't do anything.

Any tips?

@fridgeBaron can you also fix this line of code in the Immortal Component Class in the ticklivingimmortal method at line 92-95 with this so that the calculation of food cost is inside the null check?

bool flag20 = pawn.needs.food != null && this.settings.immortalRegrowCostsFood;
if (flag20)
{
float foodCost = healSpeed / foodSpeed * (pawn.needs.food.FoodFallPerTick * (float)tickMult * Immortal_Component.baseHungerSpeed) * this.settings.immortalRegrowFoodCost / 10f;
bool flag21 = pawn.needs.food.CurLevel > 0f;
if (flag21)

thanks

I also had an infinite quickening thunderstorm, was cool at first but it became insane and laggy after I had paused. I've only seen it once on starting a game with an immortal pawn on a landmark. Have not been able to recreate.

Currently this mod has issues with map changes in 1.6, pretty sure a lot of mods have difficulties relating with 1.6 map changes.

As a PSA, save often and reload when all immortals become impossible to down. Kill and destroy debug commands will result pawns immediately respawning with just lesser immortal.


Thank you for keeping this up to date, it's one of my favorite mods.

Turk - Yes, it's happened to me. Mechanoids and bugs are all valid potential Immortals.

I have had the same issue as FokxTit. I think it happened once on a humanoid, and a few times on culled critters.

What do i need to do to trigger the extractor it is currently waiting for a quickening but whenever i use the extractor trigger nothing happens, no way to prioritise them to do it either?

I tried to to behead an immortal pawn from a raid and transfer immortality to my pawn but it keeps saying I must "designate a dead or downed pawn with their head intact" or something along those lines. I have doubled checked and the head is still there with no injuries, I even let the hostile pawn revive and down him (not kill him) this time and I still cannot use the 'Order' tab to designate behead. It was working when i first started the Colony and nothing has changed between loading the game from a few days ago to now so does anyone know what this issue/bug is and how to deal with it or should I wait for 'Baron' to read this as even if I restart the mod has become a staple and I chose to not play without it!

Thank you for maintaining this awesome mod

Would this mod make the wasp traps immortal? I've been having issues with the wasp traps. They were causing some major lag. I've almost got that all taken care of. The only issue now is they just won't die. At 0 hp they still do their thing.

How does passion gain chance during quickening works?

I set it to 0.1 in the mod options, which i assume means i have 10% of gaining passion from beheading an immortal, but it seems to work 100% of the time. Or maybe its seeded? I reloaded many times, and I seem to always get the same result - a minor passion in every skill the enemy had a passion in.

If I set it to 0 I dont get any, so the option works at least.

I've run into a bug! I'm playing an colony with inhuman as a meme. It seems that when an immortal pawn goes on a humanity break they don't actually inhumanize because Immortality is "healing" away the inhumanization health effect. IDK the technical terms sorry!

Is the speed at which they regenerate their wounds scaled to their immortality level ?

@Oberon

They are temporary dead, giving them near death state is not the purpose of this mod, there are mods for cyborgs and nanomachines thats probably what you are looking for.

this is a great mod ^^ it would only be better if the immortal pawn that "died" would not be marked as dead, maybe down to 1hp and incapacitated, then the others could just put him to bed and no mate or pet would run amok because the owner is dead. that is a tiny bit annoying tbh ^^

The fix is easy. Just do a null check in EditHediffs method in the mod class.

// Inside EditHediffs, where the hediffsSearch is assigned
// ...
if (flag12)
{
this.hediffsSearch = DefDatabase<HediffDef>.AllDefs.Where((HediffDef hediff) => hediff != null && hediff.label != null && hediff.label.ToLower().Contains(this.hediffSearch.ToLower()));
}
else
{
this.hediffsSearch = DefDatabase<HediffDef>.AllDefs.Where((HediffDef hediff) => hediff != null); // Also add a null check here
}
// ...

The problem was when searching for any hediff nothing showed up unless the field was blank or had the search word

Hello. I have some problems with the hediff search in the mod menu which is due to mod conflict. I managed to solve it by modifying your code. Can you see if you like it and if you can use it for your mod? How can i give you the code ?

Is it possible to hide displaying the amount of Mortalis if you have 0 of it?

Very minor thing request. It just bugs me to see it whenever I start a new run and nowhere near to having it.

Thanks for the great mod!

Thank you for taking your time to update this mod. It's certainly one of my all-time favourites. A lot of good memories watching highlander with my family, it's fun to see it in RimWorld.

My favorite mod, praise Fridge

There can be only one!

but also that's up to you, at least until I add that as an ending(which probably will never happen cause that sounds like a lot of work)

can there be more than one?

not specifically, I don't actually set stuff individually its just figures out what it should do based on how the hediff is defined. You can just go into the settings and set it to not cure it anymore and I'll probably get around to adding it to the default list at some point.

is immortality supposed to remove the ghoul hediff?

Updated to 1.6
no changes

Okay, I'll just continue and see how it goes

The severity of your guys hediff should have increased and maybe even given a few extra passions. The level of immortality needs several points to increase and most immortals only have a low level.

Check the settings to see how much is transfered. Should be 20% or something.

How does the quickening even work? I used my immortal to behead multiple other immortals, but the only things that grew were skills. Does the immortality tier even upgrade?

is this going to be updated?

Ah found it , its literally a barrel didnt expect it to be one haha

Where can i find the Mortalis building ? or which research it is ? cant find it anywhere.

I've captured an immortal, and build an immortis extractor, but I can't figure out how to use one on the other to steal the immortality to give to one of my pawns. Help please?

like you are cutting off the heads and they are still coming back to life? If the pawn was immortal then there should be some lightning, if you don't have an immortal pawn nearby it turns into a flashstorm. You can change it so they don't start fires. No really sure what you are asking about.

yo can i ask about the quirking cause im chopping of so many heads but a thunder strike still happens am i missing something
