Happy to help! Yeah, that whole region is pretty messy.

Awesome, thanks. I was reading the notes for this and couldn't figure out why he'd be affected by any of them beyond the very basic false to true for uniqueness.

@Tisroero That's a known vanilla bug. I highly recommend using Scraphouse Fixes (Dagnabbit Quin) to fix that issue.

Dunno if this is happening to anyone else, but Quin in the Scraphouse regularly depawns. This has happened over multiple save files, and so far the only way to get him back is to just import, which is less than ideal. No idea what could be causing this, but it's been 100% consistent that Quin will just disappear after first loading him in.

@汐羽 Awesome! I'll be sure to update the mod pages to add your translation

I really love your mod and have translated it into Chinese! Thank you for creating such an amazing mod.
If you have any questions or concerns about the translation, please feel free to contact me.

Compatible with Reactive World mod?

@Pingwin Not that I'm aware of unfortunately.

@Gregarius No fixes for player base pathfinding unfortunately. I did look into it but the options were limited. I would recommend using SCARaw's Pathfinding Fix [www.nexusmods.com], as that is most likely the mod that, in theory, would address the player base issue.

@GEO In this situation, is there actually a mod that fixes it?

I admit I haven't tried this yet - I went with RE_Kenshi first. Does this fix the wonky pathfinding jank when building bases that's been around for years? Like that thing that happens when you build a water tank near a building and all your Engineers run to the gate 50 meters away to open it before running back to work on building the tank?

@Pingwin I don't believe that fix is included in this patch.

Does this patch fix the issue with held prisoners who are waiting to be released because their time in prison has expired?

Ugh this is soooo much info that its way overwhelming to decide if I should go through the painful process of trail and error. Perhaps a video step by step would help out a lot, but having to go to discord which also have a bunch of channels, topics, etc......*sigh*

@Gregarius it can be a bit much if you're getting started XD. Feel free to ask for help either here or in the Discords I've linked.

My indecisive mind is a bit overwhelmed - all these links, articles, more links in the articles, links to other patches that are already in the base version but separate (I think?), finding out about RE_Kenshi but not seeing it mentioned here... I'm not sure what to enable for the best, bug-free vanilla-but-improved experience. I'll try this one first as a base and see how it goes. Thanks for making this

@haroldhazzer As far as I'm aware the spawn rates for The Borderlands should not have been adjusted in any way. I will check when I have time, but it may just be game RNG.

I'm not sure if I'm just blessed or if the mod is affecting hub raids and bandit patrols. I've been mining copper just outside of The Hub and I've not come across a single raid of either bandit bands. I'm still new to the game and this is only my second save file, but on my first save, which was no mods, I was attacked every few days. My raid event and squad size is set to default. Can anyone deny or confirm my suspicions?

@coldcell Unfortunately UI changes are not something I'm very familiar with, as the fix I added from Shidan's Tweaks & Fixes conflicted so much I ended up removing it. You will probably need to reach out either to the mod author of Dark UI. There are also a number of variations of UI mods here on Steam and on Nexus, so you may be able to find an alternative that works for you. Hope this helps!

I'm using UPK with Dark UI.

Unfortunately, in the Dialogue window, the background is dark grey. With NPC's dialogue black in color, it's impossible to read. Can you help guide me how to change it?

Thank you!

@GE0 Ta Mate, I'll try out Guaranteed Shops and await any fix you add

I don't have permission to include this mod in the UPK, but you can try adding it to your mods folder in Kenshi and then importing one more time to fix the dead shops at the very least: Guaranteed Shops [www.nexusmods.com].

Okay, I'll double check a couple of the war campaigns. I think the shop despawned due to their priority being 0 in the FCS.

@GE0 Tried import, no luck and now the general shop in Bad Teeth after the Shek take over is ruins after the import

@ฅ⎛⎝Yummy π⎠⎞ฅ Nothing's been changed for any of the states for Okran's Shield with this mod, only the distant rendering meshes have been affected. As far as I'm aware, any of the war campaign changes shouldn't affect this either as they've been tested repeatedly both in this mod and others that fix the same issues.

Have you tried importing your save to see if Okran's Shield respawns correctly? May just be a glitch with Kenshi.

Issue maybe with Okran's Shield, I have taken out the Holy Nation, Northern United Cities and the Reavers Leaders, so the Shek should own it.
They did at one point in my game, I passed through it when the Sheks had it going towards Heng then came back through to Bad Teeth but now its destroyed.
According to the Wiki, this happens when the 4 leaders are dead, I went to Esata in Admag and confirmed she is still alive, the only thing I can think of is I had a second squad take out the Flying Bull around the same time.
On the Wiki it say that if Shek own it then the Emperor is taken out it get destroyed, but I had taken out Northern United Cities and the Reavers Leaders before entering Holy Nation land and encountering the Shek.
I don't have any other mods that affect world states, just 256 and recruit prisoners

@xX_RaptorSc0pez_Xx Yup, that mod by SCARaw is included.

@coldcell Happy to help!

@Tisroero I'll have to look into it a bit more. Didn't realize Chainmail only spawned as masterwork with that squad.

With Sanda's bodyguards altered, where does one go to get masterwork Blackened Chainmail? Or was I just supremely unlucky with her guards not being equipped with anything in the shirt slots?

Thanks for creating this. I've been meaning to go back to Kenshi and modding the game. This will help a lot!

@Shela Monster Happy to help! Suggestions are welcome, though I will say there are mods that either I've not heard back on from authors or was declined that I may not be able to implement.

Hi GE0, thank you for all your great work (and the other modders too!) in creating this great one-stop solution! Are you open to suggestions of other mod/fixes to be included, assuming the author would allow it? Thanks again!

Ah okay, yeah the mesh should be the new cube model then.

Oh sorry! That was what I meant, when I drop the foodcube its world model is still the default loaf shape and not the cube. I didn't know if this was just a problem with my game because it was still happening even after disabling all my other mods. Just wanted to mention in case something wasn't working right!

@Kira Happy to help!

Correct, it's just the mesh from Foodcube is a Lie. Since this is mainly a mod that tries to address mostly bugs in-game, I've held off on modifying the foodcube inventory size as that's a nice but not necessary QoL change.

This includes the foodcube mesh from "foodcube is a lie" right? The foodcube is still the regular loaf shape for me, even when disabling all my mods except for this one. Thanks for making this though, it certainly helped clean up my mod list!

@SCARaw Thanks man, appreciate it

Hey, nice work, keep up the good work, this Patch is in unique position as the mod, please keep the game fixed but not changed! have fun playing

Version 3.5.2 released, mostly just bugfixes to the existing UPK mod.

Honestly I think I can remove them. Looking at them now I don't actually know what they are being used for. Looking over the original mod pages I can't immediately find a reason why they are there.

Never mind, looks like it's a leftover based on the Steam page. I'll double check but unless I find a reason to keep them I'll probably just remove the duplicate buildings.

Oh boy I was way off, these are all from Slopeless not Ruined Town Pathing Fix. Will double check just in case somehow these are required or not.

Will double check the building issue as well.

Haven't uploaded it yet, will try to this weekend. Need to check one more thing that's been reported as a fix.

And thanks GEO

What about the building named BUILDING? I'll check later if it's moved too

I've implemented the misc fix for the gates, I think the way I did it hopefully will just remove them outright from any building menus.

That sounds like a good idea, will see what I can do.

You could send them all to the misc category

Not as familiar with mods that re-categorize the building menu. I'll try to look at how to adjust this so there's no/minimal compatibility issues.

Should be with the addition of Ruined Town Pathing Fix
