Just keep in mind that you could make them food, and customise them in such a way that they could be eaten to the limit of starvation. Then this mod would make sense, but as it is, it's just another useless item and a flight of fancy

whenever u can bc it IS a extremely useful mod 9/10 atm

@EGG_-GOD I will have a look at this one of these days. I think this is related to a later game update since this mod was released in 2018. Haven't plaid the game since but I want to retouch my older mods to get them up to date. Sadly I have been trapped with real life work, but I promise I will make an effort ^__^ Thanks for the update!

REALLY WOULD Appreciate A REMOVED RESTRICTION, TRYING TO CLEAR VILLAGES CANT ON ANYTHING OTHER THAN SCRAWNY CANNIBALS, don't understand why youd put a restriction i just woouldnt take the heart if if didnt want it, i dont take every bandage off a kill...

I love your response don't mind if I do.

@Kilo Bon Apetit!

I love this mod, it helps when I have 80 dying or pretending bandits at my gate that need to be tossed into the corpse burner.

NortheastBlackwood I had your ideas as well, but all I can hope is that Kenshi 2 will offer more modding abilities so I can implement them in the future and make the play experience more amazing :)

yes FoxyAndris, like a negative effect that would lead to death, or the ruination of whatever body part it's applied to... ok well thank you and I'll just keep working with the great stuff that you guys make for us non-making users. I don't think I have a game that I'd fully love without clever and well-worked mods. Thank you.

NortheastBlackwood, you mean like a negative effect? Not that I am aware of. Even this option, to instantly kill an NPC is script generated and can not be altered by mods.

One more question just occurred to me and if your recent answer already answers it then I apologize, but:
Is there an existing item which affects HP or another necessary stat, which could be edited & equipped on a KOd character and knock their HP down to dead, or set their (head, torso, etc) to extreme bleeding)? This would be so perfectly aligned with applying a stiletto to the character's (affected body part)....
As I (with little understanding of the technicals) see it, adjusting the value of an item's effect might not be adjusting the script?
Anyway, thank you!

NortheastBlackwood sadly no, because the script that comes attached with it is not editable in any shape or form. I'm not 100% sure how it fires, but I suppose there is an attached ID that works only once upon removal. The devs never added script editing through their Editor.

Andris - Thank you for your work!! - I'm wondering if this item can be adjusted so that it can be put into, and then removed from an unconscious char's inventory, triggering the death upon removal?

913781600 yeah, because the AI package clears the inventory automatically. There is no way to avoid this from what I know.

Will the slave's heart be taken away?

Thank you !

睡觉觉 I haven't played the game in some time, but perhaps there is a new function in the FCK editor that doe snot allow certain items to be taken from the body. You could try to fiddle around with those settings in the mod.

睡觉觉 I actually can't remember how the slaver script was working. But it is very possible they will empty the entire inventory of the character and I don't think there is a way around that because the AI scripts are not editable, unless you decompile and manage them manually, which is no easy task I believe.

Will the slaves die?
Because the slave traders will take out all of slave 's thing when the slave traders find new slaves.

is there any version that remove the restriction? i kinda want to rip everyone's hard so bad

ChevalierXLIV Yup, and I appreciate your involvment. Thanks for the support guys :)

Understandable :) Not trying to tell you how to do the mod, just trying to help brainstorm options ;)

ChevalierXLIV mistakes are the best teachers. but seriously, I don't know how to set it that way for followers. It applies globally since it's just an inventory item that has the predefined option to kill the character on pickup. There isn't much editing to be done on that sadly.

I think he's more so asking if you could add a barrier of some kind to it just being removed

Also maybe make it's pickpocket % nigh impossible as I'm sure someone would get up and stop someone from removing their heart :)

What can I say man, everyone has a heart!

Ive killed some of my newly recruited men by removing it out of their inventories. Ive also had Paid base mercs come pick pocket a "staying low" enemy i have imprisoned killing him xD

Does this still work in the latest patch?

hmm.. possibly make it an auto repair system, the belt equippable made using a heart and iron is a repair kit used on skeletons, it depletes charges requiring replacements to be made (make it stackable so you can replenish it? possibly stackable with just basic hearts? bit of a stretch but if you could make it work thatd be the shit :D )

I did try to put the heart directly in the belt of the skeleton but the game crashed. Well, yeah.. that's a nice idea but I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the object because it is so widespread. If there was a way to require to feed it with hearts that would be awesome!

could you make the heart that kills them when removed be an ingredient in crafting a belt equippable to only skeletons?

So now you can finicsh of beaten enemies? YAS! I am so sick of beating them over and over again.

Yes you can Bambi, yes you can! This is also a neat refference to the Wizzard of Oz, because your main buyers are the Skeletons (the Hive buys it also but at a lower price in order to resell it to the Skeletons for a proffit). I wanted to make this item equipable only for the Skeletons and give them special stats, but sadly FCS crashes the game when this actions are taken! :(

So i can sell those hearts? for money...

I would make a try next month cause I live in a part of the world where you pay internet with data ... and it's only 25Go by month up and down combined :/ ... but sure it would be fine

I do use experimental version! Try switching and see if everything is fine :)

and the same for Better squad & Weapons

your mod work with stable version (I loot some bandits hearts) but in kenshi_info he write some errors :

Don't challenge me :D But truth be told there are mods that allow you to start as a cannibal!

Thank you for this mod, I was getting tired of not being able to kill the cannibals that attack my base. Now, if only we could became cannibals ourself and their hearts for revenge (?

copperhead hahaha, only if the guard wants to fall in love with you. No, I did not apply hearts to player characters. You can only carry the hearts of generic bandits that are dead or unconscious! The idea of the heart is to instantly kill the unconscious enemy so you don't have to wait for him/her to get up. And it's also a nice way to make some extra cash at Hives or Skeletons :)

so the guards find the heart when its your own and say your smuggling

Oh, I will check it out then. I had bigger plans for this mod, sadly FCS just makes some weird bugs when using items and crashes the game!

@FoxyAndris

Have you used the item furnace lately? Because it totally works on everything I've ever put into it, including many non-armor/weapon items.

The furnace works on weapons and armor. Items don't work the same way sadly.

I've brainstormed ideas of how to get rid of unconcious bodies, but I never thought to add an item that when removed would cause a death event, like with animals!

Simple and effective! Good job!


Personally, I'll just throw the hearts in an item furnace, instead of sell them. I just wanna be able to clean up my gatehouse area

But the reality is that FCS has only 1 action per item, so I couldn't make it both be eatble and be commerced as an illegal good.

Cause you are civilized and not a cannibal <3

Why can't i eat it like the savage i am?
