[Guide] How to fix/update this mod by yourself. (Miho)
Since I can't get any respond from author, the only thing I can do is post a guide.

If you have no interest about DIY, you can download the files I changed and replace it. Link below:
https://github.com/a0918231281/VPE_HAR-Patch-MihoFix-2024-01-13-.git

Follow the step, and you won't be worried about this mod break ever again.
This won't be too hard.


1. What did this mod do?
This mod mainly does two things.
A. Copy the psycasts from vanilla framework to VPE framework.(through Def)
B. Remove the method to get psycasts from the vanilla framework.(through Patch)

2. Why this mod is showing red text when I using Miho Race ? (2024/01/13)
Well, the author of Miho Race change some name in def files.
When this mod is trying to do step B, it fails to find it's target and show you the red text.

3. What did you fix?
First, I fix the red text, now this mod can find it's target and the pawns won't get psycasts through other ways but VPE.
Second, Miho Race added a new psycasts for the huntress, called "Ensnare", I add it in to the Psycaster Path.


4. How can I fix the mod myself ?

First is red text
a. You need to open the Miho mod's folder and figure out how they get the psycasts, in this case it's through Hediff or background.
b. Open the folder of this mod, go to the patch folder for Miho, and correct the target you want to delete.
c. This well be quite a journey if you are not family with coding. There is a lot text to read.

Now let's add new psycasts into the Huntress Path
a. Open the Miho mod's AbilityDef folder and copy the new psycasts state in to this mod's AbilityDefs folder.
This time the new psycasts is for Huntress, so we copy the state into VPEMiho_Huntress_Abilities.xml, you need to add or remove some parameter to mach the VPE framework.
b. Open the PsycasterPathDefs folder, and add the new psycasts into the path.You can set the requirement as you like, make it easy to reach or available to other path ect.
