This is an update to a great mod from Distman, he has given me permission to take over his mod until he comes back around to it. Original mod here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=964388988 .

Adds gas shells for mortars, IEDs based on many of those gases, vents to release the gases, and now implants that release the gas on death of a pawn.
(Mortar gas clouds are slightly larger)

Vents will emit gas if powered and fueled with the proper gas canister make sure to turn them off before refueling.
Vents do not have one of every gas type as a design choice. (This may change)

Gas trap releases a cloud of gas when any pawn hostile to your faction walks too close. Severity builds up as long as a pawn is in the gas. Requires IED Bomb research to build.

Gas canisters are made in the drug lab (and require medicine as well as weaponized gas research)

Gases types available:

Toxic, Sleep, Fear, Rage, Tear gas, Corrosive
Mechanoid Virus (A gas cloud of nano machines that are designed to really mess with mechanoids)
Anti-Insectoid gas make dem bugs sleeeeeepy and easier to molotov, or shoot.
Defense Nanite Gas: A cloud of tiny slashing bots that can detect friend or foe.

Gas masks from mods using the "Toxic Resistance" statmod delays (or completely saves) your pawns from dying from most gases. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG I WILL USE THAT AND NOT SURE IF ANY MODS MOVED TO USING THIS.

FAQ:
Sleep gas kills? - This is not a bug/is intended.
Whats up with vents? - They are always turned on, this is a design choice, use switches and be smart when installing and refueling them so you don't gas yourself.
Save add/remove compatible? - Yeah like other mods if you remove it the things it adds go away.
CE Compatible? - Sometimes. I don't do anything to make or not make it work, its on them. (Yes as of 24 July 24)
Will I add pipes and tanks? - probably never unless I can see a good reason to do so.
Will I add X or Y? - Ask below, this mod is about weaponized gases though.
Will I add protection? - probably never, this is about weaponized gases not protections.
Will I help with you your game, mod (for rimworld or others), or make one for you? - Probably, reach out to me I'm sure we can figure something out.


=======CHANGE LOG=======
1.5.1: fixed an issue with new fleshtypes other modders can use new means of discriminating what pawns to effect notes in the XML for the gas. Nerfed sleeping gas to be non fatal at 100% its still very dangerous, balance not tested let me know what you war-criminals think.
V1.5D: Dirty recompile for 1.5, they have not changed how gases are handled so I will probably not change how the mod works yet. future versiosn may include more mech effects and another new high tech rare gas shell
V1.4.2: Fixed a bug that has been around for a while (thanks to some help identifing and reproducing by Miso). Also there were some minor balance adjustments most gases got a small nerf, hoping to reduce the number of dead from sleeping gas issues.
V1.4.1: New mech virus effect, re-balance of mech virus and fixed a couple of bugs.
V1.4.0(D): D stands for dirty recompile, ToxicSensitivity is no longer a stat so I am using "toxic resistance" to stop
resistible gases, this might make things not work comment so I know. I also tweaked the explosion stuff to account for the
new built in way gases are handled. NOTE THIS VERSION DOES NOT WORK IN CONJUNCTION TO THE NEW VANILLA GAS SYSTEM. I plan to
look into fixing this and trying to do something that works with it in a future version. I had to rip the Definition from 1.3
for base gas to do this as well so I'd say this is very dirty.


If you feature this mod in a "Let's Play", "Mod review/overview", or other video/content or create a sub mod or translation let us all know in the comments or the board and I will probably highlight it above.

@kham thanks for weighing in the random break gas might be something that comes along.

@Shazbot! thanks for suggestions, Ill probably do my own pipe system i'm not too big on making this mod require other mods, which is why i was resistant towards harmony (plus i hate how "hacky" it feels), I might adapt CE smoke and do that though. however even that doesn't seem to work the same way vanilla gases do. but ill read the code more when i'm not recovery from heat exhaustion

As for more realistic approach you can steal refer to CE's smoke system and adapt it for your gas needs. https://github.com/CombatExtended-Continued/CombatExtended/blob/Development/Source/CombatExtended/CombatExtended/Things/Smoke.cs

FYI Vanilla Expanded Framework has pipe system, i think you can use it instead of making your own. From very brief overview i can tell it can autolink to buildings with CompProperties_Refuelable and supply things through the pipe network making it fairly easy to integrate with gas vents.
Kham Jun 11 @ 6:11pm 
I have no real objections if you did need to use Harmony, it's already in my list for dozens of other mods. Though I also don't overly mind about the gas dispersing more like vanilla gasses, one way or the other.

Some new gas types do sound pretty cool, I like the idea of a random break happening, could add some interesting outcomes for raids if they just start wandering or setting fires etc.

I don't overly use the vents myself, I tend to stick to the IED versions, but a pipe system could be handy for those and might make them more useful.

I just noticed they announced the next update, Ill hold off on harmony until I can see if they made the gas system extensible.... I'll very likely start toying with the idea of a piping system, of some kind. I'll likely need to fundamentally change the way vents work.
(04) PalverZ  [author] Jun 11 @ 12:06pm 
@Mask of Humble then you made a very good argument for a pipe system right there. I will consider the issue a little more closely

Anyone hate the idea or anyone else love the idea of a pipe system?
Mask of Humble Jun 11 @ 9:47am 
I like the idea of a berserk inducing gas, let them fight them self, while I can not speak for everyone, I could care less about the gas spreading more realistically, I already use harmony for a few of my other mods so it wouldn't matter to me but I would love to be able to more easily supply the gas traps with pipes as I normally run with just one pawn at the start and work my way up.
(04) PalverZ  [author] Jun 10 @ 6:39pm 
Thinking about things..... So part of my deal when i volunteered to take over this mod was I really didn't want to lean on something like harmony ever, but now that I dont run it on a potato all the time, I have some questions.

Should I consider using harmony to make this mod work with built in gas system and spread more realistically, (does anyone really care besides me? )

or should I consider a separate "advanced" or "harmonized" version of this mod?

Also how does anyone feel about a madness nerve gas that will cause a random break, a coma, or other bad stuff to any biologic

and does anyone have any additional anti mech effects or is it ok the way it is?

@desmond1004 thank you not currently. Essentially I dont see a strong reason to do so.
Desmond1004 May 25 @ 10:19am 
Ty for mod. Do u have any plan to make gas pipe to control gas more easily?
