Hey RF, don't know if you'll read this, but thanks for making awesome mods in the early versions of RimWorld!

Hey, I updated this to 1.1: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2008156516

The storyteller is pretty much identical, it just needed a few extra lines for the questing system and a syntax change for what I think are the spaceship raids.

If you have any requests/comments, let me know!

So I hate to be *that* guy, but I wanted to ask: are there plans to update this for the new DLC & Version 1.1, assuming this does not work with the new updates?

Rainbeau Flambe is legitimately my favorite story-teller and I personally consider this mod nearly as essential as CE:FT or Deep Storage.

Unplayable at higher difficulties.
You get a really awesome spam of raids that's a lot of fun to survive. On merciless it's the perfect amount of threat. But then you get zero grace period between raid spam. It's only a matter of time before you die, and if you don't die, the absurd amount of bodies and wealth the raiders leave will inflate your colony wealth in a matter of days, until you're attempting to take on 50k wealth raids.
All while you only have 2-3 colonists because the only colonist offers you get come with raids, usually when 2 of 3 colonists can't even walk.

This mod would be perfect if it actually gave you a rest period like described in the description.

i have the additional raids mod and i don't get that many raids, I used to quite frequently get 2 raids at the same time, but recently raids have been separated by a couple of days and after nothing for almost 7 days I just got a raid consisting of 80 people

@11Bullets, Its not a mod conflict. Its just this storyteller. I have had nothing BUT raids constantly. Nothing good happening at all. Just one strike after another. I actually counted 5 in one day so far and have had nothing less than 2 in one day at least for about a month (15 days). Frankly, I love the idea the mod creator stated in the description, but there is no "term of prosperity" reasonable or otherwise. I'm taking this out as, frankly, I feel like it sucks all the joy of the game out. I'll go play a shootem'up if I want constant gunfire. Its a bit unfortunate, because I otherwise love this guy's other mods.

I've been using him for about 150 hours for one colony now and I've not had multiple raids per day. I'm at a point where I'm seeing raids more often though. I think he's pissed at my lack of colonist deaths.
PistFissed 7 Jun, 2019 @ 8:43pm 
I have the same constant raid issue, but I'm not too mad. I just switch it over to a blank storyteller from another mod when I need a breather.

I have noticed, however, that Rainbeau has shown up in my games as a leader of a pirate faction twice so far, and his sister 'Buttermilk' came to my colony. Made me smile.

Does anyone else have problems with constant (as in multiple per day) raids from this storyteller?

Started a new tribe (tribal start) and the first 3 or 4 days were fine... then started getting non-stop raids. Last night when playing I had 3 raids in one day, then another raid the next day, just opened the save and immediately got a notice of another raid (so 2nd for this game day). They're small, because my tribe is just starting, but 4 of my 5 pawns are pretty badly injured, 1 can't walk so can't help with base defense.

In defense of the storyteller, I do have a LOT of mods, so going to check this constant raid thing with a vanilla storyteller. Just wondering if anyone else is getting this issue.

I had a general question for the author but there's no way to communicate other than on a particular mod, sorry.

This is a really good mod idea but it seems to be abandoned, could you take it over or do something similar?

To say that this storyteller is excessive with the amount of raids it sends would be an understatement. Day 12 and I've been raided 6 times. Completely ridiculous.

Make Falconhoof?

Flambe on merciless is absolutely merciless on sea ice. Youre sending out your soldiers, without aloe for those full body 3rd degree burns and time only to install one peg leg, to fight the next incoming mechanoid raid... again.

Love it.
Mad Cube {~w~} 19 Nov, 2018 @ 9:19pm 
Also could you possibly add a difficulty inbetween medium and rough? Rough has too many raids and medium is too easy
Mad Cube {~w~} 16 Nov, 2018 @ 12:48am 
This is a pretty good mod,but it would be nice if you added some incidents
Oragepoilu 12 Nov, 2018 @ 8:48am 
I like it, but fair warning : you often get 3-4 raid in a row.
It help train my medic. At last, it's not a huge raid, and I got mostly some tribal so it's all cool. Just don't forget to put some defence, m'kay ?
It also help with your relation, since you can release tons of them quickly !
StarlightSovereign 10 Nov, 2018 @ 5:46am 
omg. That's fantastic.

There was an "Actual Cannibal Shia LeBeouf" mod in b18, by the way. It added an event that was literally just a naked Shia showing up and trying to eat your colonists. :D
E-Claire  [author] 9 Nov, 2018 @ 6:55am 
I honestly wasn't thinking of Shia when I created the image, but I'll embrace the resemblance.

And there's a *lot* that people don't know about me....

StarlightSovereign 9 Nov, 2018 @ 6:07am 
Omgush he does look like Shia LeBeouf. I didn't know you were a cannibal, Rain.

I was using this with Rimhammer 40k today, playing as the Eldar. Had a mountain map with a large, sweet valley with a single narrow entrance, with a marsh outside it. Nothing could get past my reinforced concrete embrasures there... until an Eldar refugee radioed in asking for sanctuary from a tribal faction. I said sure, and... 19 tribal raids spawned simultaneously. Raid alert, raid alert, raid alert... x19. Since I had giddy-up and Dinosauria installed, many were riding Triceratops and Rexs. My defenses were quickly overwhelmed, They are Billions style, and our once lovely valley reduced to flaming wreckage as my wife howled with laughter. I can't tell if this was a bug or a feature, but it was definitely an experience!

Thank you for taking the time to upload new pages for new versions RF, you're a saint.

He may need some tweaking. As I said in response to a post on the Ludeon forum, I copied over his settings as well as I could from b18 to b19/1.0, but there were a lot of changes to the structure of the storyteller XML files in the game update, so I may have missed or misdone something. Feedback is great! :)
Kirby 18 Oct, 2018 @ 7:21pm 
Got 5 raids back to back on day 4...
DTD_Hiro 18 Oct, 2018 @ 6:34pm 
be warned, extremely difficult. Expect at leat one raid per game day, no joke.
E-Claire  [author] 18 Oct, 2018 @ 6:36am 
@Kimbee: Yeah, I'm a crazy cat dad. (That's sort of like a crazy cat lady, but less sane.) ;)
kimbee 18 Oct, 2018 @ 6:00am 
I'm a big fan of your mods, now I know about Sabre I am even more devoted!
E-Claire  [author] 17 Oct, 2018 @ 2:31pm 
No, there are quite a few differences, perhaps the most important being that unlike Randy, Rainbeau isn't truly random, at least not in the literal sense that Randy is.
Frost King 17 Oct, 2018 @ 2:28pm 
Is the only difference between him and Randy Random is he has a higher population cap?

practically, shia labeouf working as a storyteller in rimworld
