@lady Vykeen, invisible genies might be due to gradient hair it can render bald pawns invisible. I made a fix ages ago, havent played in ages but it might still work.

yo i just wanted to say thanks for all the mods

Not a bug, but ok

when you update to 1.6 pls fix the blood crawl color bug too

yoou have to rub lamp. then he comes out again. but only 2 wishes left..

No such bug tracked

Did anyone happen to fix the invisible genie bug? Mine has just suddenly become invisible.

"Q: Why antibiotics addiction makes pawns resist the effect?"

If you want a rationalization for this, think of it as the microbes of the Rim developing resistance to the drug because of overuse.

lmao just had a genie prisoner die from the flu. I really should have read this mod before playing with it. Time to stock up on antibiotics for the next prisoner. :P

genies seem kind of uninteresting compared to the other ve race mods, i'd like to see more interesting interactions with the curiosity mechanic

maybe after reaching certain skill thresholds in their chosen curiosity, they could get race-specific boons for that specific skill

e.g. starting from level x in crafting, a craft-curious pawn gains y% chance to not consume resources when crafting, increasing per level up to a maximum of z%

high level cook-curious pawns could have increasing mood buffs for meals they cook to represent how they learn food presentation, etc etc

a different idea could be giving genies strong and immediate buffs towards their current curiosity, but having their chosen curiosity temporarily flit around to different subjects after reaching a point of satisfaction in their "main" one

also, maybe there's something to making genies innately advantageous as mechanitors or when dealing with mechtech?

I want this mod to be more than "It's big brain time".

If this were to ever be added to, I may suggest expanding on the antibiotics.
How about a suit or accessory that can automatically administer any substance you put in it.
- Yayo when they're sad
- Go-Juice when they enter combat
- Luciferium when they're dying
- Antibiotics when they're sick
- Any of them if the pawn's gotta get their fix of something devious.
- So on and so forth, and with accessibility for modders to select which function their item should do, probably with the Yayo one by default.

That one addition feels like it could make this as valuable as Fungoids, even if it's not technically an addition to genies, which don't really need anything else in my opinion.

And I'd like to take this moment to acknowledge that beggars can't be choosers. You're the boss, not me, I just like sharing ideas.

So I have this weird problem, while everybody has issue with pawn being invisible, for me they are "visible" but just the head =]]]
Is anyone know about this ? :)))

With Blue Blood they still leave a red trail, could that get updated?

Hello team fantastic (sorry for the previous post I deleted, I figured it was a bad on my end lol)... now I come with a question - will your Genie textures ever be HD?

Try

@Sarg: a very niche question: will the Animals Curiosity gene from this mod give recreation gain if we also have the 0x% Animals Learning from Bonding: Abhorrent precept?

Why is the colonist/prisoner consuming antibiotics like candy, and not just occasionally, but all at once, one after another?

Finally I can create Megamind

Once you get a disease, you're pretty much dead. Mine got malaria and i daily dose him with antibiotics but he sitll dies.

Question, do pawns automatically take antibiotics when getting infected or do I always need to manually administer it?

When downed and crawling, the genies create red blood smears on the floor instead of the blue blood specified by the mod. Might be a good thing to add.

yeah you're probably right as my friends use this mode and they never had a problem with it, I suspect its the GradientHair mod in my mod list, ever since I removed it things work fine

Not caused by this mod for sure

There appears to be a bug in this mod, whenever a genie spawns in the game it breaks the rendering and genie sprites are invisible on the map, moreover if another colonist (not a genie) goes near a genie (dead or alive) they too become invisible. Is anyone else getting this problem ?
that aside these are very nice mods and I appreciate the hard work put into them

What are all those devices pictured and why aren't they included in the mod?

Ive noticed something odd with the genies

they have no immunity at all, so the gain speed is very low, thats working as intended

Some diseases however seem to regress to 0 and disappear. Malaria is one, Flu is another. I've just had a Malaria outbreak in my colony, 2 prisoners, 3 colonists got it. Of the colonists, 1 is a baseliner, 1 a saurid and 1 a genie. This happened on the 5th septober, it is now the 6th septober and the genie is cured, no antibiotics required. I have other mods, but as far as i know none of them mess with immunity gain or disease severity gain. happy to dm screenshots

Eventually. Low priority

how about recolor red blood trail to blue while genie is crawling to bed 1.5

With the new crawling mechanic in 1.5, genies leave regular red blood smears instead of blue/purple.

awesome mod thx

@gigawattz If you have the Gradient Hair mod, try turning that off. For some reason any pawn that is bald and has gradient hair causes pawns to not be rendered.

Working fine here

The cosmetics in this mod (and maybe others) seem to break the graphics rendering any time that they are on screen. All pawns and some other objects stop getting rendered when they're on screen.

There's no gene toggles in this mod because genes can be changed in xenotype editor.

MEGAMIND?!?!

can i toggle the head gene

They don't break drug policies

Since antibiotics are drugs they break DrugPolicy somehow, beware before installing mod.

All will be modded

some question here about the mod similiar to this remake of official race, so if i add this mod will all the new upcoming genie will all become the modded version or is it a mix of 50/50 between the vanilla and vanilla expanded genie ?

Mods based on existing IPs tend to get much lower subscriber numbers, so we usually don't, with a few exceptions here and there

hey, sorry for offtop but i am amazed of your work and i just started playing rimworld. Are you planning on adding some of star wars stuff? Lightsabers, jedi, forcepowers etc.?

I spawn raid with Ancient Soldier from vanilla ancient and all 22 raiders are genie, in past i notice that every ancient in sealed vault not from cryprosleep casket also were genie.

Elongated heads don't play well with pig noses. I know, because i made a colonist with both, and the nose was barely touching the face.

They absolutely don't die if you use antibiotics

dying seems like it would make things a bit harder to me so i'm not sure exactly what you would want TACOTONY

Maybe I'm just dumb but how would this make the game harder exactly? Yes I can see how it would be harder if even a scratch would mean death on a Genie but am I gonna expect any other forms of difficulties aside from the Genie's coverage?

Could you please make "curiosity gens" compatible with each other?

Just a lil oversight

For some reason this and a few other race mods do not show Biotech as a requirement
(in-game Mods screen).
For example Hussar is showing Biotech as dependency, however Genie and Android don't.
Could this be a bug or is it known issue?
