Description
Starting Scenario pawn may looks odd
However, save and reload game will magically fix the issue for both w/ and w/o Biotech.

Summary
Core library for MIM Genestealer Cult Core related mods.

The mod itself doesn't give you many new functions, but it is necessary if you want to play Genestealer sub factions.

As you can see above screenshot, this mod adds new pawn spawning mechanism calls "Genestealer's kiss". (Although, you may need to subscribe sub faction mod to use the ability properly.)

One of your genestealer cultist pawn can cast the ability to a downed pawn. Then, they will be instantly transformed to Genestealer Cult and became your new colonist.

no problem im doing a cult run with Winston Waves max difficulty so i saw the issue at first when i went to convert an empire dude into a purestrain

@SankaZen Thanks for confirmation. These are quite old codes so even myself forgot how the hell some of them works XD
SankaZen Feb 28 @ 5:53pm 
it seems to be fixed now

@SankaZen Take your time ;) it's 0 am at my time so perhaps I'll check your comment tomorrow night or coming weekend
SankaZen Feb 27 @ 5:58am 
I'll give it a look once I'm home currently at work
emitbreaker  [author] Feb 24 @ 9:56pm 
@SankaZen Done. Would you please check at your end?
emitbreaker  [author] Feb 24 @ 9:46pm 
@SankaZen Oh shoot, I was wrong. I rechecked source codes and figure out why this issue happens only to Purestrain / Patriarch. Hotfix will be deployed soon at WH40k Core mod's end.

@SankaZen That's intended activity - all Genestealer's kiss only convert pawn's ideology and kept their faction as it is, because technically there is no way (or so far as I know) to figure out mother faction of pawn who used the ability to the victim.

Easy way is just convert all the Genestealers' into player faction if you started by Genestealer starting scenario, but in this case, if enemy converted any pawn into a genestealer (technically they can), then they became your pawn.

I know this is not a lore-friendly, but the best case for you now is hiring them first and then convert them into the genestealers.

idk if its a bug but it seems with only trying to make the purestrain they join your ideology but are still in the hostile faction, its just with only converting pawns of enemy factions to purestrain

@mermader What do you mean by make? If you properly converted pawns by Genestealer's kiss, they will be your pawn.
