Parasitic Slugcat [0.4.761]

Description
READ THE VERY BOTTOM OF DESCRIPTION!
reminder: please put any issues you find in the bugs discussion (pinned)
mod is now deprecated because new version in other mod (won't be updated anymore but will still be available, especially since its unfinished)
the remake: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3504376213

(no story btw just slug)
(also creature lock does support ascending (not in the creature that is), but guardians wont let you pass)

Introduces a slugcat that has the ability to control creatures, as well as eat as them. Uses safari mode controls (more prominent creatures have modified controls), with a few changes to make controlling certain creatures marginally easier

WARNING! This mod heavily modifies various things like creatures, most notably Lizards, Vultures, Scavengers, and Centipedes! This mod in general is very invasive, and may cause unwanted crashes even in normal gameplay! (incase you find any, please throw them into the bugs discussion)

Hibernation art made by someone named Classick, many thanks to them

Everything (by that i mean the important stuff) on how to do stuff is told to you through in-game tutorial text, look out for them!

However, if you happen to miss them, read this info dump instead

the info dump:
  • While inside a creature den, hold Map to attempt hibernation
  • If you wanna move farther using a creature pipe, hold Jump while entering to move to the farthest pipe relative to the pipe you're entering, as opposed to the nearest
  • If required, you can transfer food between your host and yourself, and vice versa. To do so, hold Map + Throw to transfer food between your host and yourself, or hold Map + Jump to instead transfer food to your host
  • To exit a creature, hold Pick up + Jump + Map to burst out of your host.
  • Vultures' flight mechanics works noticeably different than safari mode's does. Holding down makes your wings point upward, while holding up makes your wings point down. Think of it like swimming as a slugcat, rhythmically flap your wings as such to fly properly.
  • To boost yourself as a Vulture, press Jump + Pick up to initiate the Vulture's thrusters, the set activated depends on your input direction
  • Vultures have a unique way of moving between rooms. Instead of using pipes, it uses the sky. Due to some limits, it has been limited to a simple room picker that looks like the dev tools text. Use movement keys to switch modes or change rooms (limited by whether the room has an open sky or not, and if the room connects to the room you were initially in), and press Map to fly to a room or to do the action told by the text.


Controls are also shown in the control map, assuming you don't have a mod that hides it and that it works correctly

Currently no active development (or so infrequent it may as well be none), but I'm still keeping an eye out for bugs, keep reporting them

P.S. no translations!!!
Also there are notable changes to things such as controls of certain creatures and their damage dealt / taken

P.S.(2) there is bug that seemingly occurs randomly per-game session where certain inputs are inaccessible for an unknown reason
if you encounter this bug please report it with as much information as possible, however if you do encounter it, as a temporary fix, just restart ur game (unknown if it works, may appear again if it does tho)

can you fix this bug where when you exit a den it freezes

LonelyDemon this mod uses safari controls for most creatures, the watcher does not have safari mode implemented for any creatures so this mod cant have those creatures as controllable either

You cant leave any host when your on controller I tried the controls but they don't work everything else works but I assume that trying to get in a host wont work either

question, how do i get IN a creature? because when i try the same buttons as when exiting it but they dont work

this is like, the best mod on the workshop in terms of content. it basically adds as many campaigns as there are creatures! No other mod can even come close to that. You are so talented and I cant wait to see what projects you do next.

I wonder what the lore is to The Parasite, and who is the iterator that created it?

It must be an incompatibility
