Wish I could craft the spider tank

Finally, something to give my tanks a run for their silver.

i mean, its a giant mobile weapons platform the size of a tank. i dont know about you but id put as much armour as i could on something that big and expensive

I feel like the Lycosa needs a serious nerf, 30mm is a lot of armor....

I can't wait to see where vehicle combat goes especially with CE.

Given the relative lack of modern tank like armored vehicles in Rimworld, I think it could just be there was not much of a reason to have them. With Vehicle Framework allowing for locational armor, armor damage, locational components... there finally are a few with the 500 to 750mm RHAe to make something like APFSDS tank rounds useful over HEAT, so maybe CE will come out with them in the near(ish) future

@Benjamin Proverb Test
Interesting, I always wondered where the sabots were in CE
@none
Thanks! should be fixed

i can send the full log if this means anything to you

the armorPenetrationBlunt looks correct based on real world numbers, but it is more then 10x the highest value for any blunt penetration in built in CE ammo (about 45000 for the 76.2mm AT gun). I wonder if it simply scale too fast as they have 90mm, 100mm, 105mm, and 120mm tank guns but no kinetic AP ammo for them

@Laurie It should be but please let me know if there's any issues
@SomeCasualGuy I apologize I'm not sure how to fix this, It might be because of their secondary weapons. Ill take a look when I return to this mod
@Datboi I like the biotech boss fights, that is a cool idea!
@Miso Its based off of the M829 sabot but when I return to this mod I'll give it a 3rd pass

Is this fully compatible with CE yet?

whenever these mechanoids downed their weapons disappeared

It would be cool if you made the Lycosa an extra mini-boss for the mechinator. Possibly like a queen Lycosa or a mega Lycosa that's power is quickly deconstructing buildings and mechs. So it doesn't do much damage against flesh and humans but in terms of machines and buildings it rips right through it, this also includes armor. This would be pretty cool to see, and I think it'd fit nicely into the vanilla DLC. Ig a reward for defeating them could be being able to create the faction's mechs like the Shickmech or the scarab as a form of breech mech troops

Bullet_27mmScarabSabot_Sabot has armorPenetrationBlunt 578735.4
is this just a typo?

I don't seem to have any issues switching between primary and secondary. Definitely with resurrected mechs losing their primary, I either disassemble or use devmode to "refund" a bugged mech. Sorry.

Can you tell me why that Lycosa can only use one weapon in CE pls , thx

@test Patch now requires both mods present, how's it look?

@meep34524 thinks for the note on them being makable ^^

@wanost77 I found the issue, its Patches\CE-VehicleFramework\Weapons.xml. PatchOperationFindMod will execute if at least one mod is present, and I have Vehicle Framework

Thats really odd. No errors on my end and those patches shouldn't be activating based on your modlist. Are there any gameplay issues, particularly with these mechanoid's weapons?

hi, getting errors about CE, which I don't even have, but I found CombatExtended.PatchOperationMakeGunCECompatible in this mod: https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/e680b0b7eb7142c57ef5e597d287e1af

these can be crafted with biotech.

i wonder if this old mod will get intigrated with mechanoid fun that is biotech or will it always be the foe out of reach...

@CTH2004 its a vehicle mod PLA steel torrent they're essentially heavily modified mechanoids in code

@XoleyZum

what do you mean "steel torrent"?

It should but please let me know if there's any issues

will what the hack work wit this mod?

@Kusanagi
unless you use modded defenses you'll be plinking them with sniper rifles for a while
@XoleyZum
Awesome!
@Tenchi @Not_EviL
All mechanoids from this mod should be compatible with biotech

Can we craft the Lycosa and the Scarab? :3

finally a worthy opponent for my Steel torrent tanks. Scarabs with sabot rounds can absolutely oneshot a tank. Makes mechanoid raids more tactically varied. Love it

they are strong?

Would be cool if some of them would be craftable with biotech

wow great

Quick fix for 1.4 CE looks like everyone's spawning in with their armor values now.

ic, thank you

Not yet compatible with 1.4 CE

tried to load it with ce but found out that all armor values are almost 0

Does anyone know if this is still compatible with 1.4 ce?

sweet, thank you

Yes

I know you said this was Biotech compatible, just figured I'd ask to clarify. But are all of these able to be gestated by mechanitors?

Do you have a debug log I could look at?

shockmechs dont come back with weapons and can just do melee after please fix :(

im now just poping aroudn and seeing what mechanoid mods are happy with making them selves biotech combatable and its mechanoid part.

Appreciate it, thanks!

very good mod

fixed confirmed, thanks!

Compatible with biotech yes.

Can you make the shock troopers for Mechanator?

Should be fixed now
