nevermind

where do i find warcasket research

Gravity Hammers are considered melee piercer weapons for ideology instead of blunt.

im also having issues, my pawns cant even equip the warcaskets when i it give it to them, i just get the error -incompatible apparel, missing texture=things/pawn/warcasketlike/warcasketbarrage/warcasketbarrage_thin.
it the armor name changes depending on which one i try to equip.

Im having a problem, when a pawn use a warcasket its like he isnt wearing nothing, the armor isnt working, it recive injures like hell, but when i wear marine armor it doesnt recive as many damage.

Even a lion kill the pawn with a warcasket when i try it in Dev mode.

Used Dubs Performance Analyzer

The hell is "VFECore.Misc.HireableSystemStaticInitialization:CaresAboutForbidden_Postfix"??? It keeps causing gamebreaking lagspikes

shock warcasket is literally the enclave

Guys idk what but I gave my colonist warcasket and in the first fight he lost two legs against some tribal dudes with pikes xD is that normal? should it be normal? shouln't this warcasket prevent stuff like that?

@Mr. Unidentified have you found a way to fix it? The pawn isn't even on my map anymore, yet somehow the contract never ends either. @Heretic not sure how the destroy command works on someone not even on your map anymore.

Anyone know if pawns need limbs to use Warcaskets? Could entombing someone who's suffered major damage and/or limb loss effectively be able to operate as a soldier again?

With the update of vikings, will the crypto cannon be added in any future mods?

Correction: I meant to say field gun.

Could you please add "must be in line of sight" to the field cannon. I spent forever trying to figure out why it was "firing" without a projectile, going through the animation and ticks. Only to find out in the code it's restricted by that despite it's range.

not sure if its a mod incompatibility or not but civil synstructs cant be put into the foundry any fixes for this

@guardian1368 My brother in christ, read the FAQ, it's RIGHT THERE.

can it be added mid game

Mr. Unidentified, when I had that problem i used the destroy command from the debug menu to remove my merc. Im not sure if that will help

I have an issue. I hire some mercenaries and sent them in drop pods to kill a Pirate base. They succeeded, but not without casualties. One was left behind in the haste of the moment. And as the caravan made it back home and their term expired, the Contract will not disband. The one guy I left behind is still in the contract window and will not be selected. He doesn't even exist. But the Contract acknowledges his existence and will not let me hire new mercs. I'm stuck on this one. I don't know what to do.

Is it possible to make the warcaskets fight in an arena? I've always wanted to make a mini solaris 7 with them.

@Bookwyrm it's true!
@Oskar Potocki Please check the current parameters of warcasket's for relevance in the game.
Even standard high-level armor sets (including vanilla power armor) show much better results in combat than top warcasket's sets.
When installing warcasket's on my colonists, I want to get a real result on the battlefield. And if pawns in power armor are considered "thunder warriors", then I want to see pawns in warcasket's as primaris space marines!
I lose them as workers, but they still need food and conditions. I lose rare resources for creating armor.
I condemn pawns to guaranteed death in combat, but ... they are easily killed by mad gazelles, and personal shields do not work.
The same applies to specialized weapons, for example, the "warcasket gravity hammer", which does less damage than expected.
This is clearly not something you want to get when playing in the endgame.
Special thanks for your mod series - you are a gem! =*

Aw, why doesn't the hireable code allow for use of faction xenotypes?

hmm im getting a error for vfepirate pawn arrivalmodeworker gauntlet

The Brute Warcasket doesn't seem to be blocking melee attacks. Is there any way I can fix this?

dear author,the new race中式龙娘——冶龍 SMELTED LOONG,can not become a warcasket,when i want to make a warcasket,nothing happened

Does the camaraderie precept from vfe pirates is similar to the "colonist died" debuff that it affects every pawn outside the map?

Building the cannon doesnt require any materiels for me, is this normal or is it a bug?

A lot of non-meele warcasket weapons (like folding rifle) cannot be sold to anyone. Is there any reason why Empire and Outlanders will buy Warcasket Broadsword but not an Autorifle?

Thanks for the quick answer. I find the change very neat

Yes.

Hi! I just wanted to ask if it's intended for pawns with exosuits or power armor to be able to use warcasket weapons. I don't remember that being the case in the past, so I just wanted to clarify whether this is a bug or intentional.

When I try to either haul my warcasket-entombed pawn's corpse to a resurrection casket (cryoregenesis mod) or bury them, I find that my pawns are unable to do anything. Regardless of whether there's an open grave or not, I get the message that there are no open, available spaces/containers in which to haul the warcasket. Is this intended, or should I submit a bug report?

For me this mod caused raids to stop completely error whenever they have warcasket no clue whats incompatible

please add the curses independent of the story teller

Any chance we might get the ability to stuff Anomaly ghouls in warcaskets? Seems like a match made in heaven to me.

Wish the warcasket was seperated from the rest

patch with Sos2 would be very appreciated if possible!

mercenaries my beloved

My absolute favourite mod but i want to point out one thing.

I notice when you try to arrest hired pirates they fight back even on 100% arrest chance. I believe this is intentional because it would be way easier to just hire pirates like this all the time then arrest them and do whatever you want. But i found out i can just anesthesize them and then recruit them as prisoners. Even the ones with warcasket... I don't want to be a fun police but i think taking them as prisoner should have more serious consequences. Maybe their close friends can retaliate or pirate faction just outright refuse to work with me for a year. Currently doing this has no punishment.

P.S.: I RTFM and see how to build warcasket weapon.

Yarr-harr, fiddle-dee-dee,
Being a pirate is alright with me!
Do what you want, 'cause a pirate is free!
You are a pirate!

I'd like to imagine this is intentional, but when I hired some basic Junkers to fight for me, they were both young teens, so the Junkers just grew some kids up until they could fit a casket, then sold them to die for 300 dollars each.

What doesn't seem intentional is that they both also had the Colonist backstory, which states that they "became an adult in our colony".
It also says that they belong to our faction for as long as they work for us, but I'd imagine that makes sense.

Not sure what it measn but VFE Pirates is named figured id let you figure out if its an issue or not.

Hello there, I merely want to make a not here for other players who might seek to use a mod known as "Hire Empire" by Broms. The mod seems to be an XML based mod which utilizes the VFE framework in order to allow you to hire empire pawns, such as a laborer. The mod the same contract screen as the hire pirates option as seen in this mod, VFE Pirates. I noticed during play that due to Broms' mod piggybacking off of the VE Framework and VFE-pirates that you are only able to hire one faction or the other. I assume there are a few lines of code that return a positive value for both contracts when you hire one faction or the other making it impossible to hire both factions simultaneously. If there is a possibility of having multiple contracts open that would be great but if not that's okay, this is only inconvenient. Love both of the mods.

Tldr: if using "Hire Empire" by Broms concurrently with VFE-Pirates you will only be able to hire one faction or the other, not both.

Hello,

At which workbench can I craft warcasket weapons, once I researched them?

Why is there no warcasket weapon to utilize mortar shells?

Hello! I got two questions!

If your hired pirate gets kidnapped, is there no way to cancel a contract?

Also, does hired pirates count as colonist deaths towards Adaptation Mechanic?

the low orbit crash start has all of the generated pawns naked except for the armor vest

I have a bug in my game: if an enemy is wearing a "Sarcophagus warcasket", after he dies, I use deadlife to revive him, he will become a shambler wearing a warcasket. When the shambler dies due to timeout, my game will immediately exit without any error report.

If anyone is looking to add the pirate player faction to the permanentEnemyToEveryoneExcept section for the Empire in Royalty, faction name is VFEP_PlayerPirate. Everywhere online said look under the Mods folder in Rimworld but its basically blank for me, so I had to check a savegame. Hope this helps save someone time.
