Dang sorry people are giving you such grief over the "update" in question Oskar. I know how modding can be and it has to be very frustrating getting all this spam. If it makes ya feel any better I think you are one of the best modders for rimworld and I look forward to whatever you decide to work on next.

@Oskar Potocki perhaps it would help to add a "THIS MOD IS BEING UPDATED. IT DOESN'T WORK FOR 1.6" notice to the top of the mod description. Might help cut down on the spam.

what I was asking is related to all the other vanilla faction mods – is it possible to disable everything that is not absolutely crucial? like, only quest and faction itself…

And I swear to god if I see another bug report submitted or commented that 1.6 doesn’t work because you enable this mod I will tell you to eat a bag of dicks, my patience is this thin lol

As per patreon post, this mod will not be getting 1.6 update and won’t work on Rimworld 1.6. We’re working on a remake of this mod.

is it possible to disable most of the content? I mean, without «Cherry Picker». I'd love to add a faction, not a whole new gameplay 🙏

hello dear Oskar Potocki, this mod is best in my collections, please update for 1.6 =)

You might have a better chance hitting them on Patreon.

Hii!! I hope all is well!
with 1.6 here everything must be really chaotic at the moment </3
would it be okay for me to upload a standalone version of the mechanite suit with all credit towards you guys ? (I’d take it down once the suit official releases)

That's right, at 1.6 it stops creating colonies

[screams oscillatingly]

@Delta29 This isn't getting updated - they're doing a remake of the mod right now. One of the few mods they're not updating for 1.6, instead favoring to fully remake the mod with new features and mechanics

mechanoids 2 going to be legendary lmao

Could be rephrasing but game literally refuses to start a new colony because this is outdated, pls 1.6?

This is one of my all time favorite mods, I cant remember the last time I played without this haha. Really hope to see the remake very soon, thanks for all the hard work Oskar and team. <3

I also agree with the Total War aspect. When the Cannibal Raiders would take out a ship, it felt like the sci-fi trope of Earth uniting against an alien invasion.

I don't think it is getting removed but I agree, I loved the mechanoid ship and total war aspect of this mod. Always felt like the rimworld was under a new mechanoid invasion.

Please, i must ask you to keep the "total war" and "mechanoids ships" features in the remade mod, i love to wage war against the machines in late game

gotcha

There’s a mild set of features when biotech is active, but this mod is getting remade.

how well does this work with Biotech?

is there a way to let auto cranes deconstruct / place roofs?

Factory Expanded thing is gonna be great, can't wait to automate stonecutting again.

can Igor be me like han from insectiod. but with bots instead of bugs

o7 This mod did good,really looking forward to its future iteration as it aged quite a lot with time, but I'll never forget the tension and interesting stories it brought me

Would love a standalone of the storyteller... it was left at 1.4

can't wait for the remake of this mod!

Left unchecked, total war mechanoids really have it out for the player, huh. Currently in a pickle as the mechhive launched a drop pod raid of upgraded inquisitors right into my workshop. Everything burns, everything comes crashing down, nothing survives the onslaught.

Well, that's better than it becoming abandoned altogether. Cheers! Looking forward to Vanilla Factions Expanded: Mechanoids 2 and Vanilla Factories Expanded!

It is getting split into two different mods and remade

I can't recall where I read this, but during a discussion of various mods for RimWorld, I heard from someone that this mod would die when 1.6 releases. I find that hard to believe, but I just wanted to double-check with its creators. Is this mod getting a 1.6 update?

Ignore my last statement in parentheses in the oldest comment, it works in farther testing. Also loading MultiFloors before VFE-M doesn't change anything, and all tests beside the one in this comment were made with VFE-M loaded before MultiFloors.

On the MultiFloors mod page it looks like the mod handles the hauling side of things, george the autohauler just doesnt know to switch floors to recharge. Maybe because he uses treads and my floors are connected by ladders.

Could you better integrate the craftable mechanoids to work with MultiFloors ?

It appears that george (autohauler) will do everything i tested (haul materials to a wall on a different floor, haul materials to other-floor stockpiles) but will not attempt to recharge when on a different floor than his charging station and, if Force Recharge is used on his charging station, will go to the same tile as the charging station but will change floors. He will still charge, though, unless the "same tile as the charging station" is obstructed, in which case he will continue to haul (though i couldnt get him to haul to a wall on a different floor, same floor walls worked)

Of course, youre not obligated to fix this and have already done too much for us by making this mod, and i dont even know if its your mod's problem or the other mod's.

For some reason I am not getting mechanoid components. Does anyone know why that could be?

Is it posible to fabricate weapons and armor from other mods? Im using the star wars mod

the auto loom only used cloth and patch leather : (

When auto-haulers automatically spawn on a prisoner map, they are marked as hostile and my pawns will destroy them. Is there a way to shut them down or 'capture' them for colony use instead of destroying them? Thank you!

Does anyone know how to get the autohaulers to drop items in their inventory? For some reason, some items end up going into their inventory slots instead of the haulers hauling them, and I can't figure out how to get them to drop the items?

Thanks, will tell Oskar

Greetings,

Just a heads up, someone has taken some part of your mod and re-uploaded it in their own mod. I'm not sure if it was approved or not. Sorry for the bother and have a wonderful rest of your day

Can the Indoctrination Pod be used on slaves?

Saw in the notes the mod is getting split between a VFE factory mod, and rolling the other content into the future Mechator mod for 1.6. Does that mean we may also see some of the old Reinforced Mechinoid content make a comeback as well? Asking for reasons of lightning bolt rifles :P

@megabot

I'd like to know this as well. I really like the Total War mechanic but it's just too strong. lol There's no way I can get out to destroy these frigates and the AI factions don't take them out with enough speed. I ended up getting raided by 14 centipedes, 8 lancers and a smattering of other mechs, immediately after I fought off two previous raids from factions and had just recovered from a disastrous travel expedition. Forced a game restart. Great idea but they scale way too quickly because of the speed these frigates land.

Anything I can use to auto smelt steel slag?

Incompatible with ReGrowth: Expanded World Generation (Continued)

if I disable the total war mechanic, will ships no longer spawn, or will they still spawn but not cause any issues?

In adittion, if I disable the total war mechanic, does that basically mean I get no more mech raids, or does it mean that it scales with my wealth instead?

the textile recycler is not working for me....even if i put clothes in the input and i press extract ingredient...still can read filled at 0 of 1?? what i am doing wrong? a video or picture could help, thank you, i appreciate your work

@Tris, I have had the same issues, I love this mod but find its too challenging, so normally reduce the landings. Either I am misunderstanding what the mod sliders do or some of them no longer reduce the landings any more. I have found despite very low settings, there are still the same amount of landings.

Found a bug with the Automatic Drill - When reinstalling it quits producing chunks even when powered on and output is empty. The only way to get it to produce again is deconstructing and building again.
