1.6 plz

1.6 plz

Since this mod has been reported working in 1.6 I added it to the No Version Warning-mod
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2599504692

I just had to do the same thing. I was looking for this too to see if it was going to get an update. Maybe it's unlisted because it's going to be discontinued? Idk though just a thought

@blitz Same.

1.6 update coming?

@blitz you weren't kidding about that

Why everytime I search for this mod on the steam workshop it doesn't show up. I have to search for it in google and subscribe through my browser. Annoying |AF

1.6 plz?

Does it work with insectoids 2?

Does it work with insectoids 2?

does it work with ve insectoids 2?

is this still working i would love to implement it

I love this. I set it to 100%.

@Ferchu, I'm not sure, I've never tried it.

Hi @Murmur, Is it compatible with VFE - Insectoids 2?

Thank you so much for the mod.

Thank you so much!

yes

Can i add this to an existing save?

nice

Yeah i'll have a 1.5 update out before 1.5 officially releases. At least that is the plan.

1.5?

Keep getting infestations in rooms that are fully lit with this mod enabled. It's the only mod i have enabled.

hero

@Murmur Then maybe another mod updated or something. The timing is just coincidental since I installed this mod and had such an interaction soon after. Maybe Alpha Biomes updated with new functionality.

Very nice mod thank you!

This mod wouldn't have any effect on that.

Just to clarify, the wiki does indeed state that bugs can spawn so long as temperatures are above -17 C. And while Propane Lakes can get as high as 0 C at times, because they are considered an ice sheet it's thus considered impossible outright for them to spawn. Either Alpha Biomes updated their mod to change this, or your mod unlocked the ability for them to spawn. If someone who knows better can correct me then by all means do so.

Not entirely sure, but I think this mod has caused me to suddenly encounter an infestation in the Propane Lakes of the Alpha Biomes Mod. Propane Lakes are the equivalent of an Ice Sheet biome, but with unique flora that grows. Infestations aren't supposed to spawn at all in such a biome, and as such I've never encountered an infestation because I tend to play in the Propane Lakes. But while I think it's a bug I don't think it necessarily needs to be fixed. Just adds an extra layer of difficulty, and allows me to finally experience the hell that is infestations. Only thing is, will they be able to survive the -60 C winters like I can? :)

I pray for that thank's

Must have mod

omg i always disable infestations but now with this im gonna turn them on and up the spawn chance if i can :p

This is one extremly nice mod! Previously i just removed the mountain top via mod to get rid of those bugs in my reactor core room, but this sounds even better!

I'd also use this with better infestations if you want to add some challenge back, the infestations that do pop up will be far far worse.

Hey murmur, in vanilla I'd agree with you but I went a different rout. Instead, I ramped up the AI and difficulty. raids for me come with animals, raiders that see their buddies hit a trap and they give that path a wide birth, and they will retreat and even grab their buddies that fell so I get less loot.

armor is tougher, raids will split so im hit from multiple sides, and more.

And then I balance this with 'raids go wrong'.

I hate them because they are tedious. Combat in this game is tedious to begin with. If you can survive a 50 person raid you can survive a 500 person raid, it just takes a lot longer. When I play I massively scale down raid sizes and only use 3 or 4 people to fight. Infestations are a huge pain because when they pop up I have to suddenly micromanage every colonist I have. All the mods I made directly cater to my own playstyle, and I share them in case anyone else feels the same.

Yeah that is totally doable but I hate these damn bugs so much I wouldn't be the one to do it lol.

thanks mate

Ya it should.

Hi will this mod work if i add it mid game?

This mod only effects one specific vanilla incident: the infestation event. If there is any other event that causes insectoids to spawn, this will have absolutely no effect on it.

@murmur what ways are those not affected by this mod? like raids?

Yah its a bit sad they don't work together, both are really good mods to use.

Thank you for the quick response! And thank you for all the work you do on modding, modders truly can make a game unique.

In vanilla there is one main way for the insectoids to show up, and this mod only has an effect on that: the infestation incident. VFE - Insectoids seems to add several new ways for the insectoids to show up, this mod will have no effect on those.

On the FAQ for VFE - Insectiods the author says

"Q: Is this mod compatible with better infestations?
A: Yes, our code doesn’t even touch infestations code!"

Is that just the mod though or infestations vanilla code?

No, VFE completely changes how infestations work.

Yes, don't works with VFE - Insectoids.
Can you support Vanilla Factions Expanded - Insectoids?
