FAQ

Q0 : Is this compatible with Comba-
A0 : Scroll back to the first section, fartner.

Q1 : Is this mod safe to add and remove mid-game?
A1 : Sure do! But I don't recommend removing it mid-game, maybe with the right tools you could!

Q2 : Will this mod support the previous version of the game like 1.4?
A2 : Unfortunately no, 1.5 rendering changes made it possible to achieve the visualization we currently have.

Q3 : Where do you find the Novakin, do they also spawn in the vanilla faction?
A3 : You can find them with the bounty quest, they are also commonly found in Pirate factions (Base, Cannibal, Waster) and occasionally in Outlander factions, there's integration patches for other mods that added related factions listed in the Compatibility section!

Q4 : Does the xenotype actually glows, is it performance friendly?
A4 : It's only a visual glow, they did not affect surrounding light at all so the mod did perform quite well.

Q5 : Why is it so overpowered and overcomplicated?
A5 : I tried my best to balance and simplify it, give me feedback regarding those so I can improve in the future!

Q6 : Will you add compatibility towards other mods?
Q6 : Sure, let me know which mod that require cross compatibility by posting in Feedbacks Discussion!

Q7 : Are you planning to add more similar mods, what mod could it be?
A7 : Of course, this mod is the first step towards series mods. W-who knowss, I think you sssshould ask some plantsss around what it could be?

@[The] Force
They are! Also yeah, those previews and infographics will take a while to update.

@Saruman
Of course, releasing Starbound races as xenotypes has always been one of the main objectives of this mod series to begin with!
[The] Force 12 Jul @ 11:32am 
So with the update I assume they're vacuum resistant? (Similar to how they ignore EVA Requirements in SoS2) I imagine it's a bit hard to update the pics themselves to say as such xD
Saruman 12 Jul @ 10:49am 
Curious: Any hope for Glitch in the foreseen future?
Sir Puggsworth II 10 Jul @ 11:54am 
Ok, good to hear its intended. Thought i was having some Script failure or something.
Airo  [author] 10 Jul @ 5:21am 
@Sir Puggsworth II yeah it's intended at the moment, I allow the solar flare to trigger with 50% chance and overlap within the xml to try if it actually works for the time being but I think it does based on your report, rest assured it's not a game breaking one.

If you feel like it shouldn't stack one after another feel free to throw a feedback on the pinned discussion so I will address it within the major RimWorld + DLC integration update next!
Sir Puggsworth II 10 Jul @ 3:53am 
Very nice mod, but 1 big problem. Seems like every single time a Novakin dies it triggers a Solar Flare and they seem to stack upon each other.
Irismono 27 Jun @ 2:23am 
Looking forward to it! Thank you!
Airo  [author] 27 Jun @ 12:45am 
@Irismono surely! I'll make integration patch once the DLC is out.
Irismono 27 Jun @ 12:33am 
Will you be including Odyssey support so that Novakin can go out in space without a vacuum suit?
﴾HMCS Québec﴿ 26 Jun @ 6:04pm 
Awesome, thank you!
