Cheers. I have been playing with DNSK for years on my main account and I refuse to play with other "food survival mods" . I did not know about your voice acting biz.. of course family is important. God bless and thank you for keeping the most essential mod for SE alive by keeping it fixed :)

Please see comments on current modding in my profile, thank you.

is there any plan to include pertam and the other moons?

im not use any mods for npc, just wanted default spiders on mars. And it somehow start spawn after i started a new game
Skallabjorn  [author] 18 Apr, 2024 @ 4:56am 
works fine on mars on my server, possible mod conflict. do note that this is just the spawn mechanism, you still need the mod for your creature.

not spawn on mars(
Skallabjorn  [author] 10 Apr, 2024 @ 7:30pm 
I used it with MES all the time on my servers.
Joew 10 Apr, 2024 @ 9:32am 
Is this mod compatible with MES Mod, please?
Thanks!!!
Skallabjorn  [author] 13 Aug, 2023 @ 8:15pm 
works fine on my servers
Reigdaer 13 Aug, 2023 @ 11:59am 
is this still working? im playing on mars and havent seen any npc since i started (+10 hours)
Skallabjorn  [author] 28 Sep, 2021 @ 7:13am 
No worries :)
Jimbodiah 28 Sep, 2021 @ 5:58am 
It works, I just needed to be more patient :D
Skallabjorn  [author] 27 Sep, 2021 @ 7:26pm 
As well load order is important. Some mods include vanila planetdata.sbc files that would negate tjis so.make sure its loaded after any of those.
Jimbodiah 27 Sep, 2021 @ 7:07pm 
ok, maybe I am not patient enough :D
Skallabjorn  [author] 27 Sep, 2021 @ 8:09am 
Was made to work with it, ( I use this and the same spids mod and my cyber hounds on all my SE servers ) note to it NOT compatible with the new MES Creature Spawner.
Jimbodiah 26 Sep, 2021 @ 12:18am 
I have this and Sektan's starship troopers bugs to replace spiders, not seeing them spawn though. Not compatible?
Skallabjorn  [author] 3 Sep, 2021 @ 7:51am 
As stated clearly above in the description, this is not a stand alone, this only allows the other bots to spawn, you need those mods ( of your choice )

I quote above

"NOTE - This mod doesn't include the BOT's themselves, this only allows BOTH TYPEs to be spawned on all these types of worlds."

Can this mod run as a standalone or does it require supporting mods/resources? I'm trying to run it on my "Escape from Mars" world, but am not seeing any spiders. Thank you for your time
Skallabjorn  [author] 22 Aug, 2021 @ 4:36pm 
Yawp that one
Goober 22 Aug, 2021 @ 2:42pm 
aww got you! so i have the MES Creature Spawner i will look into its config and try to get the spids to spawn. Thanks for your time!
Skallabjorn  [author] 22 Aug, 2021 @ 2:29pm 
Those will only work with the MES Creature Spawner. Not his mod. That mod is Not "spid" or "wolf" vanilla character classes. I know its confusing but......

The MES-CS has its own config settings.

And the re-texture is for vanilla spids only, not modded spids

I sugest you contact the creators of those mods.
Goober 22 Aug, 2021 @ 2:03pm 
got it at the bottom but only notices wolfs on moon, going to play a little longer to see if a wave ever spawns. I was using this mod https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2374846071 but the small spiders didnt get retexture with space trooper bug and turret ai cant really hit them
Skallabjorn  [author] 22 Aug, 2021 @ 12:42pm 
This mod will do that yes, but LOAD ORDER is very important as Sektan also used planetarydata.sbc files in that mod. You want this one overwriting after that mod. So if its a local game or keens own DS you load it after that mod. if its on a Torch server, you load it in the mod list BEFORE that mod.

( I work with Sektan alot as well and have updated a number of his mods on his behalf with is permission )

Hope that helps.
Goober 22 Aug, 2021 @ 12:40pm 
aww got ya, well I do got the mod running on my server and havent seen a spider yet. invasion of wolf seems to be working fine. trying to get https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=561401294 , spawning on every planet. thanks for you time!
Skallabjorn  [author] 22 Aug, 2021 @ 12:33pm 
Again, this is not a script, thus no config files.

Myself and the author of Invasion of wolves worked together ( I have used the script in many of my "wolf" npc mods ) trying to do the same for spids, it was not doable due to how Keen coded the game.

This mod changes the planetarydata.sbc files to allow that script to spawn wolves any time day or night on any planet, and also allows the spids to do same.
Goober 22 Aug, 2021 @ 12:11pm 
i mean mod config files, like spawn rate etc. i have invasion of the wolves and trying to find a mod that does it for spiders
Skallabjorn  [author] 22 Aug, 2021 @ 12:06pm 
No its not a script
Goober 22 Aug, 2021 @ 11:11am 
any config files that we can edit?
PhoenixAscended 19 Jul, 2021 @ 6:02am 
Love it, one golden unicorn and a like / favorite from me.
Skallabjorn  [author] 18 Jul, 2021 @ 5:53pm 
no there isnt, not that I have done up, but its doable, real life first tho.
PhoenixAscended 18 Jul, 2021 @ 5:23pm 
Yes yes, great mod.. but is there a version that only includes spiders on all planets?.

particularly mars. either way I will use this on my world and thanks.
Skallabjorn  [author] 16 Jun, 2021 @ 1:24pm 
I will have to test it
Viper 16 Jun, 2021 @ 11:11am 
Skalla, will this work with Industrial Overhaul? The I.O. description warns against anything that alters vanilla planet files... ?
Skallabjorn  [author] 4 Jun, 2021 @ 6:48am 
Yes as that is also my mod. Its listed above as you can see in the description as compatible.
Ghost42050 T-C 3 Jun, 2021 @ 9:34pm 
good moring would like to ask will this mode work with the T600 mode ?
Skallabjorn  [author] 29 May, 2021 @ 6:55am 
To be clear - are you commissioning a custom mod? Find me on my discord to discuss.
Skallabjorn  [author] 13 May, 2021 @ 10:22am 
UPDATED - now has code to enforce spids and wolves as enemy faction
Skallabjorn  [author] 12 May, 2021 @ 7:43am 
no prob
jonn19 12 May, 2021 @ 2:27am 
Hmm yes so I discovered the idiot factor... naturally I was using another mod of my OWN that had a different ore distribution. What a goose! Thanks for that :)
Skallabjorn  [author] 11 May, 2021 @ 9:15pm 
dunno cause they are attack me and the guys on the moon and earth no problems on all my servers. Are you running any other mods for planets or ores? Some of them sneak planet definition files in them and that would possibly negate this load order depending.
jonn19 11 May, 2021 @ 5:09pm 
Hey Skal I'm finding the spiders' AI is inactive unless I spawn 'em on Alien or Triton. Wolves don't care, they run around on the moon happily enough. I can't see anything configurable outside the PlanetGeneratorDefinitions, any idea?
Skallabjorn  [author] 1 May, 2021 @ 10:07pm 
Yes, you would need to add the planet data file to it and add those creatures to its spawning table. It will not work as is. Better to edit that mods files itself vs this ones.
Rysten 1 May, 2021 @ 8:56pm 
Would anything need to be added/tweaked to for this to work on the Medieval Complete planet?
Skallabjorn  [author] 7 Jan, 2021 @ 6:12pm 
yes see my streams
Johannsss 7 Jan, 2021 @ 4:53pm 
They spawn in pertam?
Skallabjorn  [author] 5 Dec, 2020 @ 11:39am 
Its do able yes ( sorry for late reply ) Please specify what bots on what planets and at what times ( day or night )
Aemond "Stong Chin" Targaryen 20 Aug, 2020 @ 6:06pm 
yeah, I realized my mistake but my group was wondering if there can be a version where they spawn on all planets except earth?
Skallabjorn  [author] 20 Aug, 2020 @ 11:00am 
thats easy, use this mod, turn wolves off in game
