Based on my own testing in a decent rig, it doesn't affect performance just like most xenotype mods. Body Regeneration was Hediff reliant in previous version but now I shifted the mechanic to follow Biotech way of using a custom gene class to apply it as an attempt to optimize it.

In other words, it shouldn't lag out your game that much

Does this have much of an impact on performance? I read that race mods can lag quite a bit

This mod is extremely well made and I look forward to the Glitch as well :D

They are! Also yeah, those previews and infographics will take a while to update.

@Saruman
Of course, releasing Starbound races as xenotypes has always been one of the main objectives of this mod series to begin with!

So with the update I assume they're vacuum resistant? (Similar to how they ignore EVA Requirements in SoS2) I imagine it's a bit hard to update the pics themselves to say as such xD

Curious: Any hope for Glitch in the foreseen future?

Ok, good to hear its intended. Thought i was having some Script failure or something.

@Sir Puggsworth II yeah it's intended at the moment, I allow the solar flare to trigger with 50% chance and overlap within the xml to try if it actually works for the time being but I think it does based on your report, rest assured it's not a game breaking one.

If you feel like it shouldn't stack one after another feel free to throw a feedback on the pinned discussion so I will address it within the major RimWorld + DLC integration update next!

Very nice mod, but 1 big problem. Seems like every single time a Novakin dies it triggers a Solar Flare and they seem to stack upon each other.

Looking forward to it! Thank you!

@Irismono surely! I'll make integration patch once the DLC is out.

Will you be including Odyssey support so that Novakin can go out in space without a vacuum suit?

Awesome, thank you!

@﴾HMCS Québec﴿ Thank you for the framework changes information, hotfixes will be pushed soon.

Heya, Vanilla Expanded Framework has updated and many of its modules changed, so if Novakin is loaded with it, it completely breaks for some reason. Leaving the VEF github for you: https://github.com/Vanilla-Expanded/VanillaExpandedFramework/wiki/16Changes

Thank you, so much for reawakening childhood memories.

@Maya since we're nearing the summer season, I think it won't hurt to spoil a bit.

It could be said that certain plantssss were very fond of certain fishesssss back in the day of a forgotten conflict, maybe once the plantss are grown enough in the Rim, it'll attract those fish's attention.

Their concepts art are there, had to tend to those plants first to make them getting used with the Rim meat diet

I know they are probably farther down the line but I'm an absolute sucker for the Hylotl.

We already got Novakids- Erhm, Novakin on the Rim but what about good ol' tribal Florans? Honestly speaking Florans from industrial tech group and higher would be speaking in more normal sense... while pre-industrial tech group Florans would use the good ol' characteristic that any Starbound player would recognise with their most known example isssssssss what they say when examining random stuff.

Well, if anything, I'll always be happy to help with a translation or an outside opinion

@Lobanych that'ssssss right, I've been trying to flesssssh out floranssss concept to be accurate from their origin game while attempting to incorporate RimWorld aspects to their characteristics.

They require time to grow, maybe they will grow quickly around the summer?

Everyone below who asks to add Florans - the developer has been planning this for a long time and, as far as I remember, is slowly making them

i ADORE this!!! absolutely looking forward to florans <33

I require a floran genotype race
(Novakids and Florans my beloved)

fus ro gun

awesome mod, i am waiting on more starbound content 🤍

@Selen no problem! I may consider updating soon since this qualify as QoL update

Alright, i see! Thank you very much for clarifying things to me. If what you're saying is the case, then probably that's the reason my negotiator wasn't able to do finger pistols for years, ha-ha.

@Selen unfortunately not yet! But I'll have an attempt to implement it in the next update along with new mod release

Hmm! But would it provide the message "Selen healed x wound due to Supernova Blessing", as it does with scars?

@Selen not exactly, the regeneration sometimes prioritize those wounds instead of the missing limbs.
Say there's 9 wounds and 1 missing limb and the regeneration occur during that, 1 out of 10 outcome it will regen the missing limb instead of healing those wounds.

Hmm... i mean, my colonists get wounded in combat all the time, yes. I don't even keep track of all their wounds! I have a good hospital, so they heal up rather quickly.
So, getting wounded resets their regeneration timer?

@Selen do your colonist happen to get wounded during this recovery interval? they have to be healthy in order to regen properly

Despite the description of Supernova Blessing stating that Novakin regenerate bodyparts every 15-30 days, i spent several years waiting for fingers of my colonist to regrow, to no avail. Had to replace them eventually. Not sure what's going on here.

Can't wait for the other Starbound races! This mod is definitely a must have!

the multiverses, they ar ecolliding

fun fact;
theres a modder who i believe is still active, their the person behind rimsenal!
BUT, before rimworld, they made two Starbound Race mods!

@Mr. Steel Your Rabbit good luck with the finding! Hopefully you will identify the culprit for the fix so you can continue on playing with those moving bombs

@Airo Yup you're right, because now I am experiencing that with ANOTHER pawn... Sigh. Everything worked fine literally a week ago. Time to hit my head against a wall for hours. Sorry to bug you.

Starbound fans will love this if they do play RimWorld too.

Pfff yea I'm also a Starbound fan as well, what else if you want to explore the Rim while on the surface if you want to get out of the planet you've crashlanded on.

@Mr. Steel Your Rabbit I don't think it's just exclusive to Novakin, perhaps a mod related to gizmo (specifically draft related) may cause it since most people's case are able to mass draft just fine

Just gonna throw this out there, because I have no idea, and take this with a grain of salt as I have an extensive modlist
But for some reason I can not draft nor undraft Novakin at the same time as other colonists. I must draft Novakin by themselves one by one individually.

starbound!?

This with the murder drones mod scratches an itch I didn't know I had

i have truly become star bound

Oh, i get it now.
It's just plasma.
:"D

could say that they're enjoying this odd chemfuel-like kind of hemogen

;-; that is unfortunate.
But imagine how funny sapping a bit of chemfuel from them would've been.
