Will you be adding the changes from the GitHub version in the update?

Thank you! This mod is so unique that there ain't really a replacement. Always love to use this when some xenotypes are just way too op.

Looks like it does need a recompile this time, yea

Hope this gets updated to 1.6

Love this mod, but it does grind my gears a bit that if you roll a hybrid with a xenotype that's explicitly xenogenes (like Hussar) it all just becomes germline genes.

Ideally, a hybrid in that case would literally be one type with an implanted xenogerm of the other, but that's just my thought.

I use this in 1.5 and it works perfectly fine, I don't get why it only says it works with 1.4

Not by this mod then. Even xenotypes with genes from removed mods are kept and have an error logged instead of getting deleted automatically here.

My custom xenotypes keep getting deleted everytime i start up the game again

@BunnyJitsu | TTV - I had this happen too, you need to make sure that any of the 'Player' factions are set to 100% Baseliner, as this means any babies will be born with zero genes PLUS any passed down by the parents. This way works fine for me :)

Does this work for alien species without xenotypes?

My current problem has been changing player tribe to my custom xenotypes. They all spawn well enough as normal colonists but if two xenotypes of the same type has a baby it seems to roll the dice again and get the genes of a random xenotype + it's parent one when birthed.

Ok thanks i try it

Rimworld requires factions that can send raids to have a chance of generating pawns that are capable of violence. Don't make them 100% highmate

any one know how to fix this :
Could not generate a pawn after 100 tries. Last error: Generated pawn incapable of violence. Ignoring validator.
(Filename: C:\buildslave\unity\build\Runtime/Export/Debug/Debug.bindings.h Line: 39)
???

where do i find the menu of this mod, to edit the xenotypes? i might be dum

The error log should list the reason for faction generation failing there. Usually it's something like only incapable of violent xenotypes being assigned to a faction that is set up to require at least one violent pawn by its def

Whenever I try to use this mod to make a custom xenotype take up an entire faction in the Factions setting, there will only be like 3 settlements on an generated planet and I can't attack settlements. Thought it might be a conflict with that Faction Control mod, but it still happened even after getting rid of that. Anyone else have this problem?

I am using this on 1.5 perfectly fine. Are there the same issues as in 1.4? Yes. Do I still love this mod? You betcha

Does anyone using the GitHub version know how to save templates?

im going to ask Rimsential - Total Control: Continued if this is comparable with this mod but im asking here just in case you already know. thank you

will this be updated?

Works on 1.5; if you get the error that it couldn't find a xenotype you deleted, you have to go in to the mod settings and reset AND redo all the groups you edited to have the old xenotype(s) in. That will get rid of it.

Works on 1.5?

im having abut of difficulty with downloading this mod, it is downloaded, i did click subscribe, but it isnt showing on the ls it of available mods. any way known to fix this?

Hi Bradson, can you update your mod to 1.5 please? :)

all mod settings are stored in %appdata%\..\LocalLow\Ludeon Studios\RimWorld by Ludeon Studios

It works just fine in 1.5

But more importantly, does anyone know where it saves the configs? It's not in game folder, not in mod folder either. I want to copy/paste those because setting up xenotypes for each faction manually is just too long and painful

Mod doesn't seem to work.

I'm so sad this wasn't updated

@Kamisato Ayato I noticed this too. But when I closed and reopened the game, all my changes were now visible.

how to make changes save? I edited a factions percentages then reopened the game and they were not saved. Is it only in game that it saves? I did it at the main menu in mod options.

I would love love love a randomise button on spawn percentages. I have too many factions and xenotypes and I'm lazy af. Great mod though!

There is nothing to update.

has there been any updates from Gordohn and Bradson?

can confirm this still works as intended in 1.5. just change the tag in the about.xml

Folks stop recommending Total Control: Continued, the mod author has explicitly stated their mod is not mean to be used the same way this mod was.

@Rutanickers It doesn't, because I specifically use this mod to adjust xenotype rates for pawns who aren't in factions; wildmen, refugees, beggars etc. As far as I'm aware, total control does not let you do that.

If anyone is having problems with this one on 1.5, the Total Control: Continued does the same thing as this mod and much more.

ViralReaction has an update of this on GitHub

I can confirm it works on 1.5.

Has anyone played a long term 1.5 game using this that can confirm it doesnt seem to cause any issues?

what is your background

Go to bbradson's github and download his version of xenotype spawn control. Then change it to 1.5 in the about.xml and play with it.

i had a poke around on Mlie's discord to see if this had been mentioned. It has, and a few times. I won't copy/paste messages from mlie's discord, but if you search the name of this mod on that server, there are some messages about this mod being in a 1.5 working state. hope this helps anyone looking for a niche function like i was (changing wildman xenotype)

I changed the wildman slider to be 100% my custom xenotype but the wildman spawned is a Neanderthal? Why is that? I have VFE Tribals on but I'm quite sure I turned all the sliders with wildman up

update for the whole custom xenotypes being extremely common i suspect its just a issue with putting actually custom xenos vs ones that were added by a mod so if you use custom xenotype exporter or anything like that it may solve the issue

Amazingly easy mod to use as far as the sliders are concerned- just hit Control+A and then use replace the value, instead of editing it, and keep in mind that every value to alter will subtract from the 100% baseliner starts with. I have no idea about the mods functionality so far for 1.5 but after reading 43 pages of comments, it looks like every single person here is just coping because they are technologically illiterate.

This is a unity problem with how you input text into boxes that can be fixed, but hasn't been, by base rimworld.

yeah percentages just don't seem to work properly like it just ends up making them extremely common to a point i had entire wave of beggars just be the custom xenotype i put in when they should be the same rarity as a highmate. same with other factions except less extreme for whatever reason

1.5?

So reading back about 6 pages worth of responses. It certainly seems the general consensus is that this mod does not work well with 1.5. I really hope the author is able to patch this soon or a Fork is made for this mod, I forgot how much I love this mod!
