Steam Community :: No Center Drop Raids

Leozingameplays 9 Jul @ 12:07pm

Love how the game detected that was 0 and yet didn't canceled it lol

The Village Guy [author] 9 Jul @ 12:03pm

@Leozingameplays That's not my message, that's the actual game saying it's screwed up. The chance was zero, yet here we are...

Leozingameplays 9 Jul @ 11:37am

Well, looks like it breaks cause I just got a pirate falling through the middle of my base roof and a message saying 'uh oh, the chance for this should be 0'

Leozingameplays 7 Jul @ 8:54am

Works for modded games like rim war and empire? Or would break?

The Village Guy [author] 27 May @ 5:35am

The values should all be 0.0. But it's not guaranteed the mod uses exactly the same system and that it will therefore work. Feel free to join the discord and we can see if we can make it work.

alonlystalker 27 May @ 12:10am

I try to change it but seems it's not work.

alonlystalker 26 May @ 6:16am

@The Village Guy well, your mod is already at the bottom of the list, after it only some small mods that don't touch events, i think it just work different way.

The Village Guy [author] 26 May @ 6:06am

@alonlystalker have you tried changing the loading order? You might get lucky

alonlystalker 26 May @ 2:28am

Is here a way to make it work on VFE Insectoids infested chunk cras and infested module crash aswell? for raiders and mechanoids it work great for me.

pmemer 25 May @ 9:45am

The fact that raiders can just blow through the roof of your base like they're god damn helldivers is the absolute worst thing about Rimworld. This mod is mandatory

拉尼亚凯亚捍卫者 2 May @ 2:21am

no more gas drop and meat bomb in my house, great job

月羽狐 2 Feb @ 2:41pm

Thank you so much. I'm tired of seeing pigs dropping into my bedroom and kill babies instantly

Carcosan Herald 10 Sep, 2024 @ 1:53am

I haven't tried mixing up the load order. That being said, I haven't had a single drop raid since both switching them off in Rim War's mod options and implementing that workaround, so it looks like the issue's sorted for the time being. I'll give you a shout if anything changes.

The Village Guy [author] 9 Sep, 2024 @ 4:38pm

Carcosan Herald Have you tried changing the loading order?

The Village Guy [author] 9 Sep, 2024 @ 4:36pm

@Carcosan Herald the archotech solution sounds like a good additional safeguard, I'll add it to the mod as well

Carcosan Herald 9 Sep, 2024 @ 9:32am

Update: turns out the mod options for Rim War have an option to disable drop pod raids. Given that's almost certainly caused the conflict that's triggered the weirdness I've described, could be worth mentioning a soft incompatibility with that mod.

Carcosan Herald 9 Sep, 2024 @ 7:46am

Thanks for the prompt response! I do have Rim War installed, so it may well be related to that in some way. In the meantime, I've set up a workaround that sets the minimum tech level for drop raids to "archotech", so theoretically it shouldn't trigger at all now. I'll let you know how that works out.

The Village Guy [author] 9 Sep, 2024 @ 5:45am

If the odds are 0% and a center drop is still generated some other factor must be at play. Maybe it's event driven or some mod causes it. This only prevents the storyteller from using center drop raids

Carcosan Herald 7 Sep, 2024 @ 7:28am

Mod isn't working correctly at all. Centre drop raids still happen, even as it drops just one guy. Checked CenterDrop in the output and it's set at 0.0 (acknowledged as much by the event letter itself). I'll try and snipe a log next time it happens.

The Village Guy [author] 20 Aug, 2024 @ 1:26pm

@shiyuan I am curious to know how you deterime the one person showing up was really supposed to be a center drop aid? If what you're saying it correct, technically that would mean that instead of a center drop raid you'd only get one raider

Shiyuan 16 Aug, 2024 @ 9:19pm

A minor issue with this mod: when you call aid from outlander faction or the empire, there's a chance that they drop on top of you (essentially the same as an enemy center drop raid), and when that happens only one person would show up instead of the usual number.

Humpenstilzchen 27 Jul, 2024 @ 4:30am

Thank you for sharing your mod. I was about the quit playing this game because of how unfair it is when raiders bypass all of your defenses and land right in the middle of your base and execute whoever is unlucky enough to be infront of them because there is not even enough time to seek cover.

Thank you so much for this mod.

The Village Guy [author] 22 May, 2024 @ 3:47am

@thanks for testing, glad to hear it works as it should

Paladin Val 21 May, 2024 @ 12:17pm

@The Village Guy, both mods work. 100% perfectly even with each other/separate. The crashing into the mountain also still could happen in SUPER rare cases but it doesn't after I cleared out some of the mountain when tested with the dev menu.

小心二次元 18 May, 2024 @ 9:26am

不知道是什么原因，盟友的中心空投支援只有一个人

The Village Guy [author] 6 May, 2024 @ 8:55am

@sir not that hard, check the link above. Please test it for me and report back if it works

Paladin Val 6 May, 2024 @ 7:02am

Darn.. How hard would it be to turn all drop pod raids into uniform just approach from edge?

The Village Guy [author] 6 May, 2024 @ 2:28am

As that's a different raid strategy there's not much I can do about that. At least it will only be part of the raid on your roof, I guess

Paladin Val 5 May, 2024 @ 7:03pm

They literally just drop podded all over the map with a scattered drop and it collapsed roof on my base...Keep that in mind they can still do that raid.

(≡◉‿‿◉≡) 5 May, 2024 @ 6:50pm

@The Village Guy Same question with the guy below me. Also would be awesome if they just enter from the edge of the map instead of drop pods.

Paladin Val 5 May, 2024 @ 10:22am

@The VIllage Guy does this mod just make them drop along the edge or what is the parameters or drop spots?

The Village Guy [author] 25 Mar, 2024 @ 7:59am

@1073401157 很高兴听到它对你有用

1073401157 24 Mar, 2024 @ 7:00pm

有效，本来任务结尾固定刷新的9000点空投的一大群，最后就投了50点的一个人

Deadmano 24 Feb, 2024 @ 3:01pm

Thanks a ton for the speedy update, I appreciate you!

The Village Guy [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 6:10am

@PJRedneck No way, this mod is too simple to cause such havoc. Unless you have other mods that alter these settings, but still highly unlikely

The Village Guy [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 6:08am

@Deadmano of course. Thanks for pointing this out and preparing the def for us

Deadmano 21 Feb, 2024 @ 1:52pm

Can you please update this to 1.4? You're missing out on the newly added Biotech stuff (Mechanoid raids) that falls under this and that other mods may reference/use. Here is the updated Def. [pastebin.com] Just add this to a new 1.4\Defs folder Thanks for the great idea!

PJRedneck 19 Feb, 2024 @ 5:52pm

Full blown crashed my game on startup. had to fresh reinstall. Utterly broken.

Snow 16 Jan, 2024 @ 11:59pm

The fact that raiders can pod drop on your colony under mountain is ridiculous.I hope this mod helps me.Thanks

Louise Gong 11 Jan, 2024 @ 9:31pm

Saved me. THANK YOU!

The Village Guy [author] 20 Dec, 2023 @ 3:57am

Thanks @greypz !

Greypz 19 Dec, 2023 @ 6:35pm

Great mod. Works as advertised.

sigge 17 Aug, 2023 @ 7:20am

@The Village Guy Putting the mod at the bottom right above rocketman seems to have somewhat fix it. I still get center raids very infrequently but its much less than before.

The Village Guy [author] 13 Aug, 2023 @ 3:06am

@sigge you could try changing the loading order

sigge 12 Aug, 2023 @ 11:02am

@The Village Guy

Pretty sure i found the culprit. Vanilla Factions Expanded - Mechanoids seems to ignore this mod and drops raids in the middle of the map regardless. Every raid I've had that is in the middle of the map has always been the mechanoid faction from that mod.

The Village Guy [author] 5 Aug, 2023 @ 6:15am

@sigge

To check if the mod is working:

Enable developer mode

Start a dev quicktest

Set difficulty to Randy -> custom ->500% raid strenght.

Go to the dev menu, -> output, -> raid strategy sampled -> pick any

The displayed CenterDrop row should read 0% on all columns. If not, something is making this mod not work properly, or it's not loaded.

sigge 2 Aug, 2023 @ 1:14pm

Mod appears to not be working anymore. Had a mechanoid raid drop right in the middle of the map where my base was. Could possibly be a mod conflicting with it but unsure what it would be as i have no mods apart from "Sometimes Raids Go Wrong" that directly adjusts raids.

GodlikePieman 12 Apr, 2023 @ 2:05pm

thank god I'm not the only one who got pissed off at this, really dumb how they can just go straight through a mountain into any part of your colony nomatter what basically forcing you to put turrets EVERYWHERE.

The Village Guy [author] 7 Mar, 2023 @ 5:19am

@Arcane I have no explanation for that as this mod does not alter non center-raids or factions' specific raid settings

Arcane 6 Mar, 2023 @ 7:16pm

After installing it haven't had any human raids at all anymore. Only mechanoids and infestations.
