This is great mod and I wish I can use this mod in 1.16.

Is this configurable?

Further testing, seems to generally work, though they can sometimes appear within the area, the origin point is not within, but seems to prevent spawning of any of additional bugs? May be an unrelated issue, can't be sure

Preliminary testing; infestations are still blocked (does clump em up nearby, but that's fine and they are not in the area), but Large Infestations are not (these only spawn at the map edge, akin to a normal raid). I am having an unrelated issue with insectoids 2 insects not spawning, so trying to sort that out, should have more info when that is done

I'll try run a test soon then, before I commit to getting them up in a long term colony :D

@TOOTHBRUSHDUCK I have not tested out the mod with Insectoids Expanded 2. I have not been actively developing the mod lately, but if you end up testing this out do let me know the results!
TOOTHBRUSHDUCK 16 Sep, 2024 @ 4:38pm 
Out of curiosity, is this compatible with insectoids expanded 2?

Doesn't work for me unfortunately, still get infestations, I can only presume it's due to Vanilla insects expanded as that's the only other mod I have that touches on infestations. Just a heads up to anyone else who may encounter this.
