I wish it was actually feasible to play a gnoblin colony. But the extra metabolism is extremely punishing when you hit a colony pop above 5-6 gnoblins. There is just not enough meat on the map itself to sustain it and with them being poor planters, its not sustainable either to turn to grown food.

you promised skaven WHERE ARE THEY!?

Idk if this is intentional but the gnoblins are sometimes calculated as extremely low wealth (like 150 to 400 per guy instead of like 1750 for basically the same guy standing right next to him), meaning that for raid calculations I've been getting like 3 goblins were there would have been one human, and these three goblins are all kitted out like any normal raider. Maybe it's just me (and I am playing at 250% threat) but it's a bit ridiculous gameplay wise. And I have no idea why some are counted as being so low value, sometimes it's a child that's 300 wealth, sometimes its a 30 year old. I devmode spawned some raids and it's about 25% of the gnoblins are less than 500 market value in their info tab. The wealth calculation just says "character quality x10%". I can only assume it's a problem with me right now and my weird amalgamation of mods but if someone can enlighten me as to wtf is going on I'd be thankful.

a mod called "Talias Brewery" made it so they can do multiple processes in one building, hopefully you can copy that to do more body types

xqc

Oh, and how can I get them to ferment dwarfs, elves and hobbits in the Lord of The Rim setting? They only work with human humans. And since only elves and dwarfs attack me, my gnoblins are dying from lack of drugs.

I have no research tab for gnoblin stuff, what did I miss or do wrong, please?

Any chance you can move the Gnoblin research to the main tab instead of a separate one?

love those little bastards

@Vex Thank you :)

Nheheheheh! -Goblin noises-

Read the Desc, can't wait to see Skaven-like xenos.

Cool thx :)

@cwan @kongkim Fixed!

@Vex the maker of the "[SYR] Processor Framework" mod is experimenting with adding multiple processes on one building, worth keeping an eye on.

Yah get same error as below.

This is the error Phant0m5 mentioned: Config error in Gnoblin_HeavySoldier: required apparel can't be worn together (Apparel_PlateArmor, VFEM2_Apparel_HeavyLeatherArmor)

@Vex Bah i guess there is a downside to the update, should i find a workaround ill let you know tho

@Schadock [The Angeloids] VE framework changed their processing code, so it no longer accepts multiple ingredient or ingredient categories.

The drug addiction is simply too hard to manage in a stone age/neolithic game. They don't start with dreg coffin knowledge and all the gnoblins are dead/dying from withdrawal before it can be researched with the basic research spot. Not to mention the heat required - if you start in a biome hot enough for the dreg process to work without constantly refuelling bonfires, corpses and meat begin rotting almost instantly. Definitely a great race, but the genetic addiction doesn't feel balanced for anything but a standard/high tech colony.

is it normal for the dreg coffin to only allow "humanlike corpses" and no longer animal or insect ones?

no way my ranked teammates are in rimworld

So it seems there's an issue with the heavy soldier when VFE Medieval 2 is installed, because the heavy leather armour and the vanilla plate take up the same clothing slot and they're both required apparel. Throws a red error.

Suggestion: the gnoblins talk about their lives, (if living in a mountain) talk about how they live in the mountain, and etc. also make it work with text bubble mod

true

VeF has been changed so these mods do not work with it

@Walshe I also had this issue. disabled mod and it fixed the problem.

@Vectrix Oh okay lmao, though tbh I think the base intimacy mod covers everything pretty well from what I've seen, and I'm not the best with #C cross-mod patches so I don't wanna break anything.

@Walshe It sounds like an issue with your game itself, try repairing your rimworld files.

Your mod is currently unplayable to me in 1.6, when i try to start my new colony and i choose the scenario i click "next" and the button doesn't work, in the beginning i thought it was conflicting with another mod since i'm using with other 30, but when i tried to only use Gnoblins, VEF and Harmony the problem persisted

i did not mean it that way it was just me saying i thought you might like this new mod with yours

@Vectrix I'm not adding forced handholding.

Vanilla Expanded Framework has been updated and it seems they've changed quite a bit of things. Mods that use VEF gotta be updated to match it.
https://github.com/Vanilla-Expanded/VanillaExpandedFramework/wiki/16Changes

how am I supposed to get more of them if they are so ugly lmao

can you add any compatibility with the intimacy mod

Thank you. and i really hope skaven is in the works. Love skaven

@Bloodyfist Everything that doesn't need VFE still works fine.

can you add Hobgnoblins a stronger, faster, smarter and taller sub-species and genetic evolution with above average human lifespans

Was confused with so many things being updated but the mods they require are not. So how do u know this mod will work if u cant use it.

You don't, not yet at least until it does update.

How to run this since vanilla expanded not updated?

Thank you! Glad you're enjoying it!

Thanks for the super quick 1.6 update! This mod is one of my all time faves!

I'm not a g-noblin, I'm not a g-nelf, I'm a g-nome, and you've been gnomed!

Looks great ! Thanks you ! Does someone know if it add a goblin faction ?

are gnoblins what you get when you mix a goblin with a gnome? :P

thats bad.

@Nickolok Yeah but it won't be out any time soon, life be strangling me fr

Do you still have plans on making a skaven race?

@Nonamo I'm seeing them spawn fine with vanilla rates. Xenotype Spawn Control is a bit wacky, it's either some kind of issue, or a settings cache bug.

I'm running Xenotype Spawn Control, and noticed the various Gnoblin_ pawnkinds are set to 65% baseline, 35% Gnoblin; and I would think most if not all of these would be Gnoblin exclusively. Is that intended, or is XSC maybe changing the weights?
For Factions, I'm a bit amused to see Pirates and Savages have Gnoblin set to 1500% and 9990% respectively - some presumably that's as expected
Not entirely sure how pawnkinds are used, other than maybe spawning for events or colonists?
