About
This mod will add a new backstory slot to the game for each human or humanlike race if they have reached old age.

So, a human becomes an old man at 60. Other races, unless specified by the developers, reach old age at 75% of their life expectancy.

The mod adds 40 new backstories for old people to the game. I hope there will be people who will continue to expand this list with submods.




Elderhood in character tab


The onset of old age


All people who reach old age in your settlement will receive a standard aging backstory based on their social role (prisoners, slaves, or colonists).

- Need start new game: No
- Mod can be deleted in midgame: Yes, after resaving you will no longer see errors

Incompatibility Info
Unfortunately I don't know enough about transpiler patches, so the mod is not compatible with other mods that modify the left part of the character tab (one mod will suppress the other in display).
- Vanilla Skills Expanded: GUI incompatibility in character tab (patching overlap)
- Trait and Backstory Icons: GUI incompatibility in character tab (patching overlap)

Honestly, really cool idea, and makes sense.
Maybe I'll make a granny squad with the goal of becoming young again!

Is this mod still incompatible with Vanilla Skills Expanded?

OOF. Latest 1.6 unstable build from today causes this to throw errors now:

Error while instantiating a mod of type ElderhoodBackstory.ElderhoodBackstoryMod: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Null method for dimonsever000.elderhoodbackstory

An absolutely awesome idea, but incompatibility with VSE and Trait icons is a dealbreaker. Any chance for source release so I (or people) can look into patching this?

overlaps with mods that adds abilities and it pushes down the section of the skill to the personality section if you have personality mods

Joining elderly creepjoiners should have "Unknown" backstory if possible
