Agree with Dizzy Loeuy

Rather than creating a RimlaserGunplay.xml file that uses a PropDef that doesn't exist in Rimlaser and that generates an error if you don't use the Gunplay mod, wouldn't it be better to do it in a patch using <Operation Class="PatchOperationFindMod">?

Wiki: https://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Modding_Tutorials/PatchOperations#PatchOperationFindMod

how does one get the crystals for the prisms?

This happens when you use Rimlaser without the gunplay mod. Might want to do a logic check for the other mod existing or not.

Error in v1.6

So, tribals can spawn with this so beware, i'm uninstalling for that reason lol, i would thought i would see the rimlaser actually spawn when i fight idk, rough outlanders at least

RimLaser patch so the basic lasers do BURN damage and not BOMB damage.

Still no update to fix the heavy laser minigun out of metal? I know we can add the category line ourselves, but if the mod updates then it reverts it.

Thanks for the update to 1.5!

The mounted heayy laser shows up as a neolithic Ranged Weapons research item. Possibly Rimlaser doesn't play well with one of my mods?

Could a decent modder here make a patch that changes these weapons to deal Burn damage?
Rimlaser is a fantastic mod, and I love laser lightshows during combat, but I'd like to be able to take more prisoners.

Been a hot minute but for anyone having issues with making the Heavy lLaser Minigun Turret out of anything other than rock, you need to edit the RimlaserTurrets.xml and add the line for Metallic as a category. Should look like this afterwads:

<stuffCategories>
<li>Metallic</li>
<li>Stony</li>
</stuffCategories>

It does not work with CE, right?

is it just me or when pawns fire at sleeping mechs the whole game lags like hell as they create the FX for the weapons hitting the floor and missing?

@gerewoatle: That was my conclusion as well. My question was more about design than implementation -- should lasers really do more damage to buildings than bullets?

@guy07000: That's because, IIRC, the damage type is "bomb" instead of the more normal "heat" or "bullet".

Doesn't seem like this is intended, but Rimlaser weapons have increased damage to buildings -- similar to frag grenades.

Building damage factor (passable) 200%
Building damage factor (impassable) 400%

hey what happened to the heavy laser turret? its suddenly gone and i can't build it.

i noticed Vanilla Weapons Expanded - Laser also uses Name="BaseLaserGun" could that cause issues? I am getting issues with persona bond forge versions of laser guns so maybe that is why

Compatible with CE?

Planning a new run with CE... is this compatible ? ( sorry to ask )

thanks ! way better than the VFE laser mod in my oppinion specially now because they made it quest only !

Finally! Thnk you for the 1.4 update

Yayyy, 1.4!

Thanks so much for the update! :)

Same here, the only issues are sounds and visual effects, everything else looks normal

Oh yeah the sounds- that's gonna take time to update- for the bird mod I maintained I had to rewrite the XML for all the sounds. UGH! Why did they change that? Seems arbitrary.

hey guys, just so you know, the mod does kind of work for 1.4, it doesn't break the game or anything but the lasers will be invisible and no sounds.

This mod is better than VE's version. Shudder. Hoping for an update.

can you please update to 1.4? this is such a great mod and there aren't many weapon mods out there that deal blunt damage. and blunt damage is really good against mechanoids as they have bad defense against those.

any news on 1.4?

Yo! 1.4?

Love this gun - would really love a 1.4 update! :)

@iamlbmcol2 you can buy them from some traders. But also get them by deep drilling. The ground scanner finds them from time to time.

lmao i cant find crystals or info on where they are at

1.4?

Can confirm rimlaser is not compatible with show draftees weapon, youll lose the games UI when making a caravan (or loading a pod) when someone has a rimlaser equipped (the gatling laser in my instance)

how come my turrets never fire?

problem when my pawn hold laser gun and form a caravan or get in pod, UI go missing, its only happen when pawn use laser gun pls fix anyway cool mod

Very cool. You should make effects lights for party rooms that use the same or similar graphics.

Imagine a polychromatic laser light pulsing to the music from disco-mod (or just set to a specific animation pattern) that gives a mood buff to colonists, but like real effects lights/lasers costs a lot of power when on.

Or a set of multi-colored, wider light beams with partial transparency for non-laser effects lights.
Only ideas. Either way I really like your work here, AUTOMATIC.

Would this be an error of this mod, or of Show Draftees Weapon?
Every time I make a caravan or transport pod, with some specific pawns in it, the GUI gets destroyed and invisible, like freezes, as long as I have the colonist bar enabled.
There are a ton of these errors as long the colonist bar is enabled. After finding the invisible button down in the right corner to disable it, everythings back to normal.

There is an error that pops up in the console with possible incompatibilities when these 3 specific mods are loaded together in the game.

Vanilla Weapons Expanded - Frontier
Vanilla Weapons Expanded - Laser
Rimlaser

This is the error(s):

XML error: <supportsColors>true</supportsColors> doesn't correspond to any field in type ThingDef. Context: <ThingDef
XML error: <supportsColors>true</supportsColors> doesn't correspond to any field in type ThingDef. Context: <ThingDef

Oops, I had the wrong mod in my clipboard, I meant this one (A Petition for Provisions): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2444190820

I suggest getting this mod: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1241694757 to buy crystals. You can also get them from deep drilling, but you have to get lucky and scan them with the ground penetrating scanner first which can take ages if you're unlucky.

Which vendor do you purchase crystals from?

Is there a way to add the crystals to mining mods? I haven't seen a single crystal in any traders after years in game. A few pistols have dropped from raiders, but no crystals.

Thank you for the 1.3 update! Can anyone confirm if the laser weapons of this mod register with Ideology's preferred weapon feature? (do they qualify as Ultratech & Ranged?)

Absolutely great, an update, thank you! <3

Yes, an update. GJ!

Still +1 on the wall mounted lol. but anyway, pls disregard my request, I decided to create a single weapon mod that uses this as one of the requirements, for the tech and prism components. Anyways, thanks for the mod.

+1 on the Wall turret, Also:

Can you add a Mk. II of the Laser Sniper Rifle? less warmup, less cooldown but can only be crafted and player only (Basically, it also have:
<generateCommonality>0</generateCommonality>
<generateAllowChance>0</generateAllowChance> )

And of course, the crafting requirements is doubled or tripled. Pls, Im really looking for player only faction weapon.
