Does this mod have dependencies? I'm guessing some random furniture because it crashes trying to load interiors.

What is the gigantic building you see in the screenshot? big radio? It looks like that.

I really like the concept for this mod and it's gotta lot of polish... But theres just some stuff I really dislike about it. Almost everyone seems to be a crazed lunatic with bizarre dialogue... Speaking of dialogue, so much of it seems to be there just to waste your time(atleast a dozen or so NPCs will keep you in a dialogue loop until you pick the right option).

I wouldn't mind if there were a few crazed lunatics(its the apocalypse afterall) and a joke character or two(cause it's Kenshi) but... It's literally the entire mod. It just doesn't feel fitting for Kenshi, or atleast that was my impression. It was fun exploring initially, but it isn't the kinda mod I'd keep for future playthroughs.

Cheers to the author for all the hard work they've put in this mod though, I definitely wasn't expecting this level of quality in a Kenshi mod!

Update, you can discuss nihilism with nietzsche now.. he's in Golpe del Sol..

rip I already have the hook mod

Also is getting into a duel supposed to make said character forever hostile afterwards to top it off?

So is dead fred actually in the game right now because blind guy told me about him and i've been here for 3 hours looking for the only other skeleton in Ranshin

Yeah, pretty sure its the same person, I'd talk with that Mod Author, seek what you two could do, maybe even a new mod, who knows! I'd love to see more factions in the game, fully changing some biomes, I think Shem needs some love, it's a place near everything, trade there would be amazing, a nation could easily rise there to challenge other major powers. The atmosphere there is so unique as well, seems like a wonderland, mixed oasis, mixed otherworldly, magical dust.. Anyway back on topic, I'll what's golpe del sol is all about

Yes, good ideas all of them! We're thinking along the same lines.. I think the possibilities with Kenshi are enormous as well, and indeed modders should collaborate probably.
When I started the mod I didn't look at the workshop for a month or so and that's when the other mod for the Hook came out I think, that's the same guy right?.. So, would like to speak to him [or her?]. I think I have him on my friend list. I guess discord is the place to discuss this, but the few times I logged on it's very empty...

Also the East Coast Expasion Mod Author is looking to do a collab Ranshin and The Grogery seem like a match as business partners, the MA seems knowledgeable with world overrides, I'd give him a chance if I were you. Also I didn't have a clue about Bounty Hunters were a thing til now.. I wish you could add features that allow players to join but need to go travelling, extorting BARS to give income and allow smuggling freely, corrupting city leaders to switch sides, bribe city guards, set up thief guilds, recruiting people to build up the faction, preparing them for war, raid and pillaging

Maybe even an technocracy, I've always thought the Ranshin was some sort of corrupt trade guild, crime cartel (more like a crime syndicate), player faction should be able to influence them, maybe even donate recruits, outposts and goods, yes, i dungoofed, it's them rebels! please also include Holy Nation Outlaws too.. need some more little outposts scattered around the hook, maybe a few in the way bars? casinos, gambling houses and brothels on the way to the cities, patrols in the Swamp, as to imply the Ranshin are tackling the Hashish smuggling trade

Am also thinking about some kind of government structure, but I want the player to be able to influence that.. That is more or less the big quest I envisioned with this mod. Got some things in place already [Corto vs Rudolf vs Maldito or something, authoritarian vs humanitary vs homicidal maniacs.. but it's food for thought.]

@Roque, that's why I pressed on with the latest addition, now you can ally the rebel farmers! Which indeed more or less needs to be done, if you want to be safe. [Ronins will also protect the rebel Farmers, even if they attacked you, I usually just run away when I see them with ronins nearby:)..]

I know it can be annoying but I'd thought it to be a nice challenge, also makes sense lore-wise [albeit a bit ridiculous, that's fine with me ;)]. To counterbalance the fact there's a lot of pretty good stuff around [very easy money because the ranshins will murder bounty-hunters and put them on spikes for you to loot, amonst others..]
So you should go to Golpe! Sadly it needs an import because else the buildings aren't fully recognized, I'm planning however to avoid the necessity for importsfrom now and won't be making more settlements for this mod. [except small nests/camps]]

I've planned something like you describe already. But I haven't tested overrides a lot and that can get pretty complicated. Also because testing things like that takes ages.
So.. it may take a while..

P.s. didn't see that post before, love that image though, friggin' hilarious!

I must say the alliance the Empire outlaw peasants is weird and sometimes even bad, I've invested in the town a lot, bought that building outside and with Interactive World, I've started a lumberyard industry but the paesan empire outlaws came, knocked down my door and started murdering my goat family, they shouldn't have the right to disrupt trade, this is why you should add more prison poles and put some common sense laws, at least after they take over the hook, they will need a proper goverment hierarchy then

I came to the conclusion the Ranshin should own the entire territory because of this reddit post:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Kenshi/comments/bgbbli/the_really_angry_lands_of_kenshi/

You see that person ranted and he/she was right about the UC presence in the area is very weird, they shouldn't be capable of controling that entire region so cut off from their faction capital, its moronic, these lands are ripe for conquest, I say do it! once they take over big towns maybe the whole Ranshin Ronin faction can change, Cartel-o-something, new resources, armors and weapons, I always thought that Impaler mod was an amazing armor set for ronins and criminals should you need suggestions

Once they take over their region, they can start infiltrating Shek and HN, attacking the Swamp Hashish trade for themselves, establishing new bars/brothels, I suggest you take a look at that Jmod that has nightclub stuff too

@Roque, thanks buddy! I love what you're saying there :D.

Suggestion is a sound one ;) Don't know which way I want to take it, but some conquering is surely planned, Jack Coat has got a plan right?

This mod is so cool, so damn cool... I love the sheer insanity, dialogue doesnt make sense, and when it does it feels Kenshi-like, as if they always belonged in the game, I see you've crafted your mod loving this game, could you possibly allow the Ranshin to take over the entire region? setup operations in Mourn, take over their own slice of the pie, also.. why are they purple? in my game all their uniforms are dyed and bright, boots, pants and metal helmets, entire thing looks like a wacko crime cartel, I love it!

Good news, it seems Lofi fixed an issue that came to light with this mod. Also, now I know the issue I'll change the problematic AI-occurence-situation so crashes will no longer be caused.. Hopefully..

@No Name.. Haven't tested it, but it shouldn't be cause for problems.. Other than that Shidan's mod doesn't take this one into account, so only storywise things could be somewhat illogical. [Not even that prob, but as said, haven't tested it, if you do, I'd love to hear your findings..]

So any problems with reactive world?

@sgtklink: no it's not, I added a notion to the mod-desc, thanks for mentioning.
@Rinklestein: 10 points for you! :D [And it's in The Hook, added it to the desc, thanks for the mention..]

Is that a Butthole Surfers lyric I'm seeing?
Also which area(s) is this primarily focused? Looks nice!

Is the nudity part of the mod? I already have a nude mod activated on my game and am wondering if it will conflict.

You're welcome, good to hear!

The colored text really helps and improves conversations. Not only that, this town has got some funny dialogue! Thanks for adding more life into Kenshi and especially the Hook region.
