Thanks for looking that up. I'm currently sick and unable to do any work that requires concentration, but will look into it when I can. Thank you very much for your help. :)

Miscellaneous Core is listed as a requirement for both mods on Rimpy, but not on Steam. Is it necessary / does it work in 1.5?

"please compatible with pphhyy's Lightless Empyrean*" on Vanilla Fishing Expanded got the response "Not by us" from Sarg Bjornson.
This likely means that any patch making water fishable has to be done on your end. Mods that support fishing include Alpha Biomes and Advanced Biomes, so you should be able to find whatever's necessary for that in both pretty easily.
(on looking myself: in advanced biomes VFE_Patch.xml just has a patch for Vanilla Fishing Expanded. It's quite quick and small; looks like you just gotta tell it what classifications your biomes fit into. An identical file - looks different at first but when you actually read them they're identical - exists in the VE Fishing mod's patch section)


*(another biome-adding mod)

none of haplo - none of ur mods show 1.5 properly in any mod manager weather internal to rimworld or external like RimPy

yes it says that cannot fish beacuse is a modded biome.

Hmm, what is not working with vanilla fishing expanded?
Is the fishing not working? I haven't time to experiment around right now, so a little more detail to explain the issue would be helpful. Thank you.

please add suport to vanilla fishing expanded ,good mod btw

That must be another mod. This mod was never like that, sorry.

I seem to recall that in the past there was a way to make this urban biome always spawn on the players starting grid, and the city would be inhabited forcing the player fight for their home area right from the get go. was that part of this mod, or is that something else?

@Haplo_X1 You are my hero 🙂

Ah, sorry. I totaly forgot..
They are now added. :)

Hey! Any news about 1. 'cold bog', 2. 'extreme desert' and 3. 'arid shrubland?

Hey sorry me again, could you also add urban biomes for the 1. 'cold bog', 2. 'extreme desert' and 3. 'arid shrubland'?

Awesome, thanks! :-D

Oh an oversight.. done :)

Hey thanks for the mod! Could you also add urban biomes for the tundra?

@Odeum: Thanks for the info. I'll add it.
@Rubi: Can you provide me with the error from the logfile?

Also happens for quest generated locations in general. Rim war for instance

if the village for the second stage of Caravan Adventures's questline spawns on an urban biome while you have dub's bad hygine, entering it will cause an error loading.the map and exit to menu.

Looks like your defs are inheriting from the vanilla biomedefs. That's fine, but you probably don't want them to also inherit any modextensions that other modders patch onto the vanilla biomedefs.
I recommend adding <modExtensions Inherit="false" /> to your biomedefs. It'll prevent mod conflicts from happening.

Hmm if it's not in that option then you can only change it in the xml directly. I have to look myself, as I'm not sure right now and am not near my computer..

Sorry if it wasn't clear english isn't my first language.Yes I've used the slider to adjust the numbers of ruins on the world map but what I was asking about was a mean to adjust the number of buildings.

Did you look into the Mod-Options of the Misc MapGenerator? I think I did add a kind of density slider in there a while ago..

@Haplo_X1 I started a new colony in a mountainous desert map and the urban ruins spawned in the mountain side of the map. While not being game breaking, I was quite surprised lol

Also, would an urban ruins density slider in the option be something feasible or would it be easier to edit the text files to my liking myself ? Thanks again !

You had luck on your side as I had a bit time and it was rather easy to implement..

Update on 8/16/2021

- Added Support for Desert and IceSheet

Daaaaamn, that's some serious efficiency ! Thank you very much !

@Petey: Pink boxes are a sign that the graphics are not loaded. Try to check the file integrity, most likely something is missing..

Would adding urban ruins to desert and ice sheet be a lot of work because that would open a lot of possibilities ! Thanks for the great mod

he haplo! i got only pink boxes on the map and cant enter a ruin

Hey, any thoghts about tundra and ice sheet ruins?

I'm not sure, but most likely not. But I can be wrong.
Only way to find out: Try it. As long as you don't overwrite your old save you can always go back to it :)

Is the mod compatible with RimCities?

Would it be possible to make this for ReGrowth - Wasteland? Would make a kickass apocalypse run with this.

Can you also make ruins for the tundra and the ice sheet?

So, with the new patch the urban ruins should support Vanilla Fishing + Vanilla Boreal Forest / Tropical Forrest / Tropical Swamp

Hey thanks for trying to find a solution. I don't know about coding or modding either but I'll cheer for you!

thank you

(i don't know that much about coding, but maybe add something akin to what the game has as "mountanious" "creec" or something, which can be "untouched by humanity" or ruins" or something)

I'll try to find a solution for this problem. It is not that easy, but we'll see..

if i may ask, could you patch this mod so that the biomes the ruins are in count as usual biomes, just with a lot more abandoned structures? becaues i as an example cannot fish in this biome, because it is not a "base biome"

Is it possible to have vanilla fishing expanded mod see this urban biome as the biome it is in? For now I can't fish in ruins biome even if it is in temperate forest (normally I could fish in there). I'll ask this from vanilla expanded modder too.

breaks the game when trying to generate a map

Thanks for the info. I'll remove the box. It's the easiest solution :)

Hello! Enjoying this mod, but there is an issue who kind of are ruining it. Luckily, it is quite easy to replicate.
When a ruin with an animal sleeping box are on the map and nighttime comes, the wild animals beeline for that. First animal gets a nice sleeping spot, the rest thows this error message constantly, grinding the game to a halt:

Could not find good sleeping slot position for Rat383693. Perhaps AnyUnoccupiedSleepingSlot check is missing somewhere.

Claiming the Animal sleeping box does nothing, but destroying it fixes it.

Maybe just remove the sleeping box, or replace it with an end table or something?

There are also modswhich add new bimes (volcano, permafrost etc). If this mod would support them that would be great.

Thanks I've been looking through the definitions to see if i could find something to increase to up it, but I'll wait for now ;)

Currently you can't as it is a fixed value in the code.
But I'll upload a new MapGen version soon, where this can be defined in the mod options (But in the Misc. MapGenerator mod)

I second want to know how to make this more common.

How can i make this biome more common?
Great mode btw.

This modder is a fucking legend. Have almost all of your mods installed. Keep up the amazing work.

There seems to be an issue between this and Realistic Planets.
Not anything detrimental, just strange.
Instead of generating on a few tiles, with normal planet generation. When using this mod, and Realistic Planets, within worlds that have a lot of temperate forest, large portions of it are urban biome in a temperate forest. Like megacities.
Strange, but interesting.

I've tested them and with the switch to the patch the problem with Terra (Core) should be fixed. Both work now. Maybe you won't have these structures on the new Terra areas, but everything else should now work.
