Hey, I've noticed a thing about the metabolic efficiency of this xenotype. When I checked Hussar's genetic composition in xenotype creator, it showed 0, just like in your mods description. However, when spawned in game, Hussars have -3 efficiency. It is because weapon aptitude gene is not actually visible in the editor. I guess it is because this gene only gets applied to pawns existing in-game. This makes them less usable, and looks a little bit like a bug, as it's contradictory with mod description, but I am not sure. Did anyone else notice this or is it just me?

are unique weapons affected by the weapons gene? I don't know if they are considered different weapons.

Extremely minor feedback but on the graphics that show the genes on this page, Hussars have Tox Resistance. However both in the vanilla game and your mod Hussars don't have that and instead have partial Antitoxic Lungs.
Also your icon for cold tolerant has the arrow going the wrong way compared to the game but it might be more logical the way you have it.

I just tested, and there is nothing wrong. Test with only this mod active and you'll see

The third image in your mod's description—the one showing the location of the weapon talent genes—has generated the trait weapon talent genes from the Odyssey DLC at that position.

It's indeed because this mod generated the new trait weapon talent genes from the Odyssey DLC. I just tried deleting all textures and regenerating them, but it didn't work.

Do you mean the unique weapons? Those don't generate as genes

What "trait weapons and genes"?

I'll delete all textures and try regenerating them.

The newly released trait weapons and genes in the Odyssey DLC have no texture maps.https://steamproxy.com/steamstore/app/3022790/RimWorld__Odyssey/?l=schinese

Who makes a weapon with no texture?

There will be an error in the game if there is no texture map for the "Gene: Specialized Firearm Proficiency".

100% your modlist

might just be my mod list, but this mod breaks world generation by stopping any faction bases from being generated.

Is it no longer possible to have Robust + Toughness anymore, or did I mess up my mods?

so pretty much, the luciferium dependancy gene is a straight upgrade over normal luciferium usage. As opposed to needing about 12 per year to sustain a single colonist you only need 6? and for a huge buff of 6 metabolic efficiency? insane.

My pawns don't take luciferium even when they have a deficiency. I have it on take luciferium for addictions, Is this because it's not technically an addiction? I'm not sure how to make them take it automatically instead of me manually doing it.

@Jiven That's vanilla bug, not this mod. In order to make the dependency appear, you have to force them to use the drug at least one time. But this is unbalanced because you can force them not to use it instead. The bug have been existing since long time ago. Maybe you'd better report that to the official devs, Idk whether they would fix though. Because there's so many reports already there.

I saved a Uhlan child and let him grow in my colony. When he reached adulthood, the Luciferium Dependency didn't activate: my stack of 14 Luciferium stood untouched for over a year and he didn't have any problem functionning.
How do I help you to resolve this bug ?

I know it's a request made years late, but I don't suppose there is any chance of being able to toggle off the wings in the mod menu, much like ears/tales for Highmates? I love getting a new Hussar or Uhlan pawn, but the wings just feel tonally off to me personally.

I'm dumb, I fixed the problem just had to update my game. Apologies for the confusion

Sorry, cannot reproduce that bug, it loads fine for me

It appears this mod is making it so no factions spawn on the map when generating the world in a new game. I've taken all my mods out 1 by 1 and have narrowed it down to this mod, not sure why its doing that. Also used the bug report form to report this

One major gripe I've had with VE: Hussars for awhile, the infographic is not accurate for Hussars. They actually have a metabolic efficiency of -3 due to the fact the Random Weapon Aptitude is added after generation, without it they have 0 but with it they have -3.

Honestly I think the Random Weapon Aptitude should just be dropped entirely, it's a gimmick lets be real. I always remove it from all my Hussars because needing 75% more food just to be bawler with what could be a pointy stick, isn't worth it.

No

Will glidewings allow pawns to fly in the new game update? Or will there be a new set of wings that will make pawns able to fly?

Found the culprit! Will be fixed on next push

The problem with giant is that it sets some body parts to decimal values, which when below .5 causes them to be counted as "weakened" and apply negative effects. This effects the Brain, Tongue & Eyes lowering consciousness, talking, eating & sight. They never heal the last few decimals of HP.

Inversely, some body-parts that are above .5 count as "enhanced" such as the heart, lungs, sternum, kidney, liver & stomach, which affects breathing, blood filtration/pumping & digestion.

Compared to ever-growing from VRE: pigs which seems to never set a body part to a decimal value and thus suffers no negative effects from their increased body part HP (well food but that's not relevant).

The only mods installed were the dependencies, harmony and Vanilla Expanded Framework.

Not as far as I can see

giant gene is still bugged

I have a strange question, but why uhlans is uhlans? Like in real history uhlans are light cavalry and hussars are heavy cavalry. So, i think name them "dragoon", "reiter" or "cuirassier" would be logically. Yes, that's stupid.

Is it true that if bulletproof skin turns sharp damage into blunt it is resisted by the pawns blunt resist instead of sharp resist on the body part hit? Because if that's the case, that's actually pretty terrible, sharp resistance is way more available than blunt resist and in armor, a low penetration sharp attack can easily be given a 100% chance to be grazed, turning to blunt and being halved, while bulletproof skin gene could allow it to do full damage.

pls pls PLSS make it so that glidewings double/triple the amount of jumpack distance you can go

Are others having a bug where the Luciferium ticks don't actually start till the first time you have them luciferium?

@haunzter1 @Mizaria Bulletproof Skin works as written, although yes, words like kevlar and deflection are confusing. All this gene does is prevent bleeding from small wounds, and has no effect on damage taken at all. So if a pawn without this gene takes 14 damage with bleeding, a pawn with it will take 14 damage but without bleeding.
@haunzter1 "it makes it so that blunt damage that your armor would otherwise tank is instead tanked by the body." - You are stating a simple assumption as a fact, and yes, this assumption is incorrect.

There's been several complaints going around since last year for misleading infographic, might want to fix that

Consider reporting the bugs properly.

@Mizaria I confirm. I noticed the same thing. The giant gene is bugged.
Just imagine. Brain 13/13.2 Forever from birth. It's sad to be uhlan..

sadly i think thats the case

So the random weapon aptitude isnt a gene itself? It's just locked to the two hussar xenos?

Do war casket weapons have aptitude?

@Mizaria, I noticed that as well and have begun removing it from my younger melee supersoldiers. I still keep it on the older ones to boost Ever-Growing from VRE Pigskin. The body size multiplier does eventually turn them into bullet sponges though, which is why I leave it off the shooters. On 15k cap 500% threat, I'm seeing legendary Siegebreaker nearly shot off of them in caravan ambushes, so you may want to roll them into warcaskets that don't degrade.

@haunzter1, it's not entirely clear how Bulletproof Skin works based on the description, but your armor should be mitigating damage down before it gets to the skin layer – if that happens, it halves the damage and converts it to blunt, in which case BS would seem to do nothing. My best guess is that it's a niche gene for a nudist/tribal/child/dodge build. You should normally just eat the sharp damage and run Superclotting for +1 metabolism efficiency.

bulletproof skin gene is (unintentionally I think) bad. it makes it so that blunt damage that your armor would otherwise tank is instead tanked by the body.

not yet, even did a full uninstall and reinstall of the mod to make sure it was up to date

@Mizaria, it just updated again, do you know if it fixed that issue <3?

more specifically it looks due to rounding, brains and eyes and similar round down under max hp and become weakened while legs and arms round up over max hp.

this rounding includes to bionics like detox lungs

newest update made the giant gene behave weird, all body parts got a decimal added but not healed up to the new max resulting in all health stats (sight, consciousness, hearing, etc) counting as weakened

finally, just what i needed
throwing club aptitude

"flamethrower weapon aptitude" is not necessary because the weapon does not require pressure.

Howdy, are the Armored Speed/Unconstrained Genes supposed to not overwrite the Naked Speed gene?
