Update please
Head 24 May @ 7:16am 
Excellent mod

@cant aim Any mods that modifies the spawn-chance of animals are something to test for.
cant aim 28 Apr @ 12:42pm 
I am also aware that the mod works fine on its own I was just hoping that the error would have a clue towards what mod is conflicting before I started randomly testing things.
cant aim 28 Apr @ 12:38pm 
Yes I made a report in the discord.

Hello, I'm trying to figure out what mod is conflicting with this, does this give any clue? Exception filling window for RimWorld.Dialog_ModSettings: System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'ChooseWildAnimalSpawns.Main' threw an exception. ---> System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.

@kingrevolucion12 Animals only
kingrevolucion12 27 Apr @ 11:43am 
Does it give the option to increase the number of manhunters (wild men)?
Mlie  [author] 10 Apr @ 9:56pm 
@Jeremy Lin One of your mods adds an anomal with a non-standard definition. If you find out what mod it is, link to it here and Ill take a look

@RiseKnight Reset restores the value to whatever it was before you changed it. The mod itself has no values
Jebeddo 26 Mar @ 2:14pm 
Best. Mod. Ever. I just can't play without it. It's perfect for adapting various other mods in various other settings.

It may be my big mod list, but I cannot get the spawn rate to change for animals on a polluted map I am playing
Mlie  [author] 1 Sep, 2024 @ 9:27am 
@Laser Then you do not have the mod enabled or is not looking in the right place
Laser 1 Sep, 2024 @ 8:56am 
I can not see the settings area in the mod I can only change if animals sleep at night or day
Mlie  [author] 19 Aug, 2024 @ 9:33am 
@slongo702 Only animals
slongo702 19 Aug, 2024 @ 8:42am 
Are you able add wild man spawns with this mod?
Mlie  [author] 12 Jul, 2024 @ 10:18pm 
@z8ta The Reset button in the mod options removes any settings done by this mod. If you see changed values anyway they are not done by this mod
man_of_belief 3 Jul, 2024 @ 10:44pm 
changing, thanks for making this mod. i don't understand what causes this glitch happens, so i'll just change mod setting whenever i start the game. anyway it works.
Mlie  [author] 3 Jul, 2024 @ 10:36pm 
@man_of_belief Tricky to know what the issue is. I assume you have other mods active, so try the steps described above on how to find the cause of your issue.
Oh, and this is not an updated mod. This is my own 🙂
man_of_belief 3 Jul, 2024 @ 9:53pm 
thanks for updating this mod for us. btw, i don't know its conflict or bug, but spawning density keeps changing happened. whenever i restart the game, it chages the default setting. no error log or something wrong with it. this only happens where i go.for instance i'm living at temperate forest, so it always happen, and whenever i visit other biome, they change to default too. will there's any way to fix this bug? and again, thanks for updating and managing tons of mods for us.
sith-shenanigans 24 Jun, 2024 @ 5:28pm 
@Darth Ruthon Are you using the Star Wars Animal Collection? I'm having the same problem, and that seems like the likely culprit.
wuj555555 20 Mar, 2024 @ 5:30pm 
Do you think you could add na option to filter shown animals in some way? Gets pretty laggy if many are added thanks for reading
Mlie  [author] 11 Mar, 2024 @ 9:39am 
@Barbarossa I think so, the biome info is generated on world generation
Barbarossa 11 Mar, 2024 @ 8:43am 
Hey there!

Quick question, after changing the sliders by adding a few animals to a biome, those animals don't appear in the information tab of said biome in the world map. Is everything in game working even though that change doesn't appear?
Mlie  [author] 19 Feb, 2024 @ 2:20am 
@Quasar Queso Seems to be working in my tests
Quasar Queso 19 Feb, 2024 @ 1:10am 
Does this work with Alpha Biomes? Thankyou!
The Algean 7 Feb, 2024 @ 4:55pm 
@Darth Ruthon Did you figure out which mod was causing the issue? I'm having the same problem now.
Mlie  [author] 1 Feb, 2024 @ 9:55pm 
@Darth Ruthon Look for any mod that adds an animal. I assume there is one that are defined in an unexpected way
Darth Ruthon 1 Feb, 2024 @ 10:14am 
Not sure why but when i go to the options there are only a couple buttons to click and i can't close it, i have to close to game to get out. I assume mod conflict, any clue which type of mods could conflict?
ORION 25 Jan, 2024 @ 9:42am 
Thanks this is a great mod
Mlie  [author] 25 Jan, 2024 @ 8:31am 
@ORION Yes, but will only affect what new animals arrive to the biome
ORION 25 Jan, 2024 @ 7:44am 
will this work on a saved game?
(≡◉‿‿◉≡) 30 Dec, 2023 @ 4:02am 
@Jesse if you have Dubs Performance Analyzer try turning off the bottom fixes (Fix missing mod factions & Fix mod removal). That happened to me before and I was frustrated because I thought I lost my 12-year in game save, but never in this mod. IDK if you can still recover it though.

Anyways the density keeps changing from 10-40 even rearranging my load order.
Mlie  [author] 29 Dec, 2023 @ 10:57pm 
@Jesse This mod does not permanently change anything in your save. The changes you do in it is only loaded if the mod is active. Your issues are caused by something else, I suggest you look over what mods have updated since your last working session.
Jesse 29 Dec, 2023 @ 6:46pm 
Yeah adding this mod to my modlist corrupted my whole save file. Dunno how the hell that happened but it happened. Don't think it's your fault? The save was pretty damn unstable with how much I had been changing the load order around.
Jesse 29 Dec, 2023 @ 5:01pm 
I... really want this mod, but something happened. I went from a game that worked without issue at all to a million red errors fly by in the debug log upon loading in. Rocketman won't load and the entire map is a blank grey space dotted with the names of my colonists.
(≡◉‿‿◉≡) 28 Dec, 2023 @ 6:15pm 
Hello, idk if it's a conflict or a bug. But somehow the spawning density keeps changing up to 20-50 everytime I reboot. I set up the density up to 6 (max) in a desert map and it keeps changing. There isn't a single error and even the Visual Exceptions does not detect anything. I'm still using the same mods and load order for the past 6 months.
Holdstrong 12 Nov, 2023 @ 11:56am 
Thanks. This is a really fun mod. I'm having a blast creating biomes with specific wildlife. Big thumbs up.
Mlie  [author] 12 Nov, 2023 @ 11:16am 
@Holdstrong Tbh, I dont know. The game defines it for each biome and the mod just lets you modify it. Id say 1 is sparse, 5 is crowded, something like that.
Holdstrong 12 Nov, 2023 @ 11:13am 
@Mlie Thanks, that makes good sense. And what about the animal density per biome. What does, for example, 3.7 "overall animal density" in the Temperate Forest biome mean? I know I can use that slider to increase or decrease the total number of animals that spawn, but what does the number - 3.7 in this case - actually refer to?
Mlie  [author] 11 Nov, 2023 @ 10:58pm 
@Holdstrong The values are the weights connected to the spawning chance. They are not amounts or percent, they are weights relating only to each other. So for example a biome with all animsls set to 0 except rat at 1 and cat at 2 will have twice the chance to spawn a cat.
Holdstrong 11 Nov, 2023 @ 6:30pm 
I know you've answered this exact question, but I must be extra thick because I'm still a little confused. Animal Density per biome is "how many animals can spawn at the map at the same time" - but the density for Temp Forest is 3.7, and obviously way more than 3.7 animals spawn on that map. Can you ELI5 how that works?

And the animal sliders are relative to each other, but they don't appear to be guaranteed spawns. A deer with 2 and a rat with 1 doesn't always produce a 2 to 1 ratio of deer to rats. So is it relative percentage chance to spawn? Like, a deer is twice as likely to spawn as a rat, but the RNG might still mean you end up with more rats than deer?

@TurtleShroom Tried this with the Permafrost mod and there were no issues opening the options. Not sure what your issue could be.
TurtleShroom 24 Oct, 2023 @ 4:25pm 
This is the Permafrost Mod to which I am referring: https://www.steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3027775257 .

For reasons unknown to me, I am not able to generate a XML file in the Mod Options for this Mod. When I go into the Options, the game generates an error and it is impossible to exit out of it without terminating "Rimworld" entirely.
TurtleShroom 24 Oct, 2023 @ 4:22pm 
For some reason, I am getting an error that has occured since I added the Permafrost Mod ( ), and it happens on the cusom Races that one of my Mods adds. Removing the Permafrost Biome's spawn table entry fixes it. Normally, that only happens when you accidentally list something twice, but I have checked the files, and it simply is not listed twice.
