Please tell me this beauty can milk boomalopes too for the precious CHEMFUEL needed for Oddysey.

Wonderful mod, i like that we have an animal themed mechanoid but would it be possible to make it also capable of Training and Taming animals as well?
Im using Vanila Mechs expanded, Alpha Mechs, Reinforced Mechanoids 2 and Advanced Mechanoids and NONE of them have an animal based mechanoid. Your seems the only mod that remotely touches them

yeah, this mod isn't patched for CE, which is sad.

This thing has a piss poor accuracy with CE enabled :sob:

I do have to say thank you because I am going insane having to manually use mechs to kill animals.

At first I ignored this mod, only to come back to it after doing a solo mechanitor run.

@MILF Inferno I haven't been able to replicate this issue is it occurring with just this mod or is it a larger conflict?

JobDriver threw exception in toil unnamed's initAction for pawn Mech_Hunter286966 driver=JobDriver_Hunt (toilIndex=3) driver.job=(Hunt (Job_1296745)

Keeps throwing this error

if this does what i think it does.... i can finally make a mech run boomalope farm.

im gonna be that guy

CE?

was the issue with alpha animals fixed? its not on the changelog

Dude, you're a lifesaver. I have a colony of violence disabled pawns and I couldn't find any solution to my problem of them not being able to slaughter. Weird this isn't part of the game.

@hYPERION
Thank you!
I've published the Japanese translation here!

@Dragon King E Make sure you have the appropriate researches as the hunter requires gun smithing if I remember correctly.

@hunya11 There should be an option to publish translation versions of mods when uploading in Rimworld, so yes.

Hello.
May I translate this mod into Japanese and publish it on SteamWorkshop?

I added this midgame and the gestate option isn't showing up, will I require a fresh game?

ca confirm the issue with alpha animals

Is it called a Huntoid ? It's called a Huntoid right?

EDIT - Was sad to see it's not called a Huntoid :(

Interesting ideas, a butcher mechanoid and proper animal mech would be nice but I dont have plans to look into creating that for now. If I were to do a melee mechanoid, instead of creating a new one I would look into somehow offering a simple shield as an upgrade to Scythers.

I also like Vanners idea. Maybe you could combine it with my idea: Animal Husbandry Mechanoid. Would be similar to a "Butcher". Has Animal skill and melee combat. Raises animals, butchers them, maybe also some chemfuel crafting. Raise animal -> Butcher -> Meat -> Chemfuel, the cycle of a Mechanoids life. Might take a few jobs away from Fabricator. But the priority of work would be Animal > Cook (only butcher) > Craft

hYPERYON, could you make a melee knight mechanoid? A more advanced option for melee mechanoids, that use a shield and can be built in different variations with different melee weapons? I think mechanoids lack in The melee departament specialy at high mechtech and higher

@shiva chirr I dont use or know much about CE, so unfortunately I have no plans to patch any mods I make on my side to support it.

i know its been a bit but have you thought about a ce patch

he cant gathering resourses

I found a bug. You say that the bot won't be able to harvest animal products, but it seems that when the bot encounters an animal product that isn't a conventional one, it'll try to harvest it and get both it and the animal stuck in a loop.

To expand upon this, it seems that this means there's a conflict between this mod and Alpha Animals, as I saw my hunter bot try to harvest a chunk from my bouldermit over and over. The animal product that comes from bouldermits don't count as milk or wool, so the bot might see as something it can do

@shiva chirr Not really, I dont use it or plan to look into it.

are you planning to look into CE support

It can take animals to pens, but can it tend/tame and look after animals?
Im using Reinforced mechanoids and none of them offer animal based mechanoid.

As a solo mechanitor im not in need of a hunter but iv got hands on few animals and now they are taking most of his time. Having a caretaker would be nice but so far i dont think anyone has made one yet

@Rostropovich Noted, no they are not intended to be usable by humans.

I had a needle rifle pop up as a quest reward - intended for them to be in the human-usable item pool? (Of course, since I'm running about 400 mods at the moment it may just be an incompatibility thing.)

@Scimetar Good catch! It does indeed need biotech, it seems I forgot to configure that on workshop page. Sorry about that.

I'd suggest redoing the tags and listed requirements to run this mod. It sounds like it needs elements from the relatively new Biotech official DLC.

CE?

while i havent tested it yet, i wonder if the issue is the mechanoid work modes mods?

@Peryn [Андрій] They should be made at the small mech gestator, and require the Gunsmithing research alongside standard mechtech.

Love these guys, like little baby Shockwaves

Can't see hin in my build-list.
Any help?

Seconding for the Fishing

Can he fish with the vanilla expanded series?

I like the look of this little guy, I might use him as a replacement for militors entirely

@Krazyfan1 Definitely not the intended behavior, is this happening with just this mod loaded?

for some reason they don't seem to hunt for me?

Big respect for continuing to work and make new mechanoids. It's one of my favorite aspects of this game and all the stuff you've made so far for them has been great

@The Forgotten6 Probably not, I didn't add any inherent compatibility to the mod.

@Kalmin Unfortunately not, just moving them to pens and slaughtering them is the extend of the hunter's abilities.

Is it compatible with combat extended?

This is great, great texture work, looks like it belongs in the game, can it do animal related skills too? Like training/milking/shearing?

Sir you are being hunted

@Scout Gaming You can, however hunter mechs are worker mechs first, meaning they will "wander" instead of "patrol" so they wont automatically start attacking hostiles.

But they can be drafted just like any other mechanoid and act like you would expect from there.
