@HipsterCthulu Thank you! I have all the code for this mod up on GiyHub here: https://github.com/Runchimchar/shoggoth-byos-patch . It's been a HOT minute since I touched either of these two mods, but the main things for patching in a new ship are to add the ship "dungeon" file to the frackinships folder, and patch the universe_server.config file to make the race's default ship the default FU BYOS ship.

How did you patch this? I'm just curious because I have a ship that I'd like to patch in myself, but don't know where to begin.... any pointers? Great job btw!

shoggoths are indeed lovecraftian in origin

@middleton42014, this mod doesn't actually add any shoggoth-related content, it just aims to fix a bug that happens when the original shoggoth mod is installed with FU. Both FU and the shoggoth mod can be enjoyed separately without this! (Also, I think the shoggoths are Lovecraft-related)

This actually exists. a shoggoth mod but needs FU compatibility thats a skill is... nah the shoggoth mod is probably related to DnD.

Doesn't work. At least for Nightgaunts

arcana themed nicely.

I know this doesn't directly relate to the BYOS, but seeing as this is a patch between Frackin and Shoggoths, any chance you can do anything about the nutrient paste dispenser? It technically works, but it's been "eating" my FU materials if I try to fill it without dumping said materials in storage first!

No nothing's breaking i was just wondering what it did

@Magenta Lizard I added that along with the other Shoggoth racial traits and it comes built-in with FU, though I don't know if it's on the wiki or anything. The source code that adds the tech is here. [github.com] Shoggoths are immune to the Insanity debuff, but since the debuff can actually have some uses, the tech drains food to give you those effects. It's been a while since I touched any of that code, though. Is something breaking?

Anyone know what mod the invoke madness tech if from? Apparently it's not from the shoggoth mod and i can't find anything online about it being from FU

@Poundcake Well, No. it does make it that the ship never drops out of hyperspace, or takes a while to do so, and doesn’t spawn over a planet.

Thank you!

@~Kiwi-Kun~ Does that background still render and cause issues after selecting Frackin' Ship/Vanilla Ship from the SAIL? I'm not sure what would be causing the slowdown except maybe another mod :/

@True Mind, They were missing the "bed" tag, which is pretty easy to patch. Should work soon 👍👍

I keep encountering a glitch where this BYOS mod keeps messing with how the ship loads and renders it's tiles and background ship image, making a garbled mix of both default ship, and the BYOS rusty ship. not to mention, it creates massive slowdown, making it difficult to deal with.

The shoggoth beds dont seem to work for the ship deeds. Couldya fix, or am i bein dumb?

Hey, could I get the item IDs for the shoggoth and shoggoth eye'd blocks?

that could be another mod, knowing how FU on itself is a mod that disregard any other mod by default fsr

@Chibi-Viral Sorry, but I couldn't make that bug happen on my end either. But if you can find out when it occurs, send those details my way and I'll see if I can patch it! It's possible that it could be some interaction with another mod causing the error

@Chibi-Viral just installed this mod today and have not had this issue. I installed after already making a Shoggoth. Chose BYOS option in the ship and everything loaded in fine, sorry I couldn't help.

ok, so i dont know if this is a common bug among the community, but when i select this, the ship doesnt change and instead i fall through space, i figure that is something with Frackin's BYOS, but just in case, does anyone else know how to fix this?

seeing kevin shaking hands with someone worries me

@Revan I patched up the respawn bug, but what's the deal with the ids?

and also would like to know if the other item ids incompatibilities with FU that see mentioned in some places are still an issue

really badly need the respawn animation for hardcore to be there to work with Frackin Universe, any one know any patch?

Figured it out. FU Hardcore mode allows for respawning and its missing the cinematics for it. hardcore.cinematic

Got a message saying the respawn was missing for shoggoth... which only happens if compat failed.

Oh man, this is awesome. In my shoggoth playthrough I had a massive ship that looked very similar to this. I just love the idea of the shoggoth traveling through the cosmos in something that is both made of themselves and acts as an extension of their bodies. Great work.

@Xean I didn't end up adding them to the racializer, but you can craft them for pretty cheap from the organ lab with the rest of the shoggoth furniture

I still cant convert the objects to the Shoggoth style with the racializer

I was about to make a joke about the thumbnail but I think if there was anyone Kevin would actually shake hands with, it would be a creature of nightmares.

Haha! I made one this morning too!

The deed is done: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2534798032

Oh please do make a non-FU BYOS patch. Please please :)

@Link117 No, but since a few people have requested it now, I might make a shoggoth patch for the non-FU BYOS mod

does this work with out fu i cant find a patch for this race with out it to get a byos ship for this race tho i have not relly tried as when i search a lot pop up and are not for the shoggoth or byos mods so am still searching when i found this idk if there is any other patch mods

@Morbid I don't know if the racializer was built to be easily expanded, but I can add some crafting recipes to the shoggoth crafting table for the ship locker, fuel hatch, chair, and teleporter potentially

Are you able to fix the Racializer? Neither Shoggoth nor Mindflayer are registered as available, and i suspect it's due to them sharing identical components - Kirhos and Fenerox have always had a similar problem.

I've had to use Toon components in a vague attempt at a pulp sci-fi look

Can you make a version for non FU BYOS?

MORE TENTACLES!!! MORE TEKELI-LI!! :D

Looks great :D
Thank you for making this :)

Thank you!
