Yeah empty by default. You add things to it to equip specific weapons

Is the required weapons (Advanced) supposed to be empty or am i missing something? I'm trying to equip specific weapons to specific pawn types.

Dark colour loss is a regression I'll get to it after all my other mods are updated to 1.6.

@Caustic Sarcasm sorry, the groups is the best we have. If modders haven't chosen to put their weapons in the basic groupings you're out of luck. A modder could easily patch in additional categories to a weapon but that'd be just as manual if not more-so. the best you could really do is just not use the editor. If you do it all once via the settings you could just go to the xml file and copy paste the whole set around

Great mod! Would love to use colors like black or grey, the color setup right now is pretty limiting. Even presets like most of the vanilla game has would be a great stopgap

Copying and pasting loadouts would also be nice, I find myself wishing I could paste a loadout and make small changes to create variants. Maybe that's in and I'm just blind

@Taggerung Well that's what I mean, the groups are so small so if I want to add the whole arsenal, I have to select like 15 different options

allowed weapon types. each type is a whole group not just one weapon you just need to know the relevant types

Is there an easy way to give factions access to an assortment of modded weapons, or would I have to go in and select every option 1 by 1 in the mod options?

can't help you without a log

ur mod for some reason preventing majority of factions from spawning upon creating new world. my map almost blank

Found the xml file! Thanks for your help.

You should be able to edit the xml file it makes directly and just update to the new ones. Bit manual I’m afraid but not impossible

Quick question:
During the 1.6 update, a couple of faction mods I'm using changed their ID, and now I can't edit the preset I'm using. Is there any way around this, or do I have to re-do the entire preset?

ah the darker colours thing is interesting, that's one of the bits that needed more significant rework. I know what will need doing to fix that but it's probably going to be a minute as I've got 50 other mods to update and that's pretty minor. In the interim, if I'm correct I _think_ you can probably just edit the xml file it makes for you for finer control over the colours than the colour wheel allows.

regarding the issue with empty settlements, it did in-fact turn out to be a result of most of the outfits being too expensive for the price range the units were assigned. Managed to fix that relatively easily. Everything else is working properly except for the color wheel not being able to pick darker/faded colors. Not a huge issue at all, but a fix would be cool if possible

You are a master of your craft my friend!

YESS thank you so much mate, for real.

Fortunately the way I wrote ancients it doesn’t break anything to keep it; no binary usage at all, so if someone happens to release a 1.6 compatibility thing it could theoretically still work. It’s well encapsulated so for now it can just stay.

As for the empty settlements no idea is that new with 1.6? Is the any kind of error? Making them so expensive it can’t spawn any is my only initial thought

Thanks for the update, once again!

You probably should remove the Ancient's code from the 1.6 version and keep it stached until the new version release for reference, since things are sure to change on that department

great mod, but one issue I've experienced is that edited factions quite literally do not spawn pawns in any settlement I visit. Meaning that edited factions are abandoned. It's probably something I've done wrong on my part, but a suggestion on how to fix my issue would be greatly appreciated

1.6 beta released. Seeeeeems to work. There's a small error with VE on startup I'm struggling to work around but it seems harmless so at least there's a V1. Note however that VE have announced ancients will NOT be being updated to 1.6 so while I've left the code intact I do not expect it to work. I couldn't even get the game to load with ancients.

I realized that i just cant play Rimworld without this mod. So happy to ready that youre working on it, thank you so much!!

No but I’m working on it today

Super NEED T_T

do we have an estimated time?

Don't get too excited until I make it actually work XD

Taggerung mate, you are the hero we need but dont deserve

yes

is 1.6 update planned ? :) Thanks !

When you pick the pawn kind you want to edit there’s a special one called global which applies to all the pawn types in the faction. Some stuff like raid points is faction level so only makes sense to edit at the faction level but for most stuff global acts as a kinda baseline so you can set defaults like idk hair colour faction wide then only have to override the weapons and armour at the pawnkind level for example

sorry, what does it mean by global edit? i want to edit the raid points of some raider pawns and it says "can only be edited via the global edit"

Hey, huge thank you for continuing this mod, you've no idea how happy you made me when I checked whether someone picked this one back up just now

For everyone else who's commenting about adding custom xenotypes, just throwing a stone but let faction control manage pawntype's items and equipment, and instead let something like Xenotype spawn control (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2891975564) let you pick the variety and makeup of custom xenotypes for any faction in the game (as percentages), even hidden ones such as ancients-

Yes there should which is why it’s been requested many times including on the current first page of comments. It’s very hard to make actually work though. It’s all open source if you want to contribute that feature yourself

There should be a function where you can copy and paste the changes you made from one preset to another.

having a bug where flak helmets are replaced by tuque, and flak vests by sash if anyone can help. thanks

See recommended additions, you cannot use custom xenos, you must export custom xenos into a dedicated mod before they can be used using something like the [1.5] Custom Xenotype Exporter Tool

i tried to use the xenotype editor couldnt get it to work used different worlds restarted did different xenotypes tried pretty much everything i could think of and it didnt work any known bugs or fixes?

No it’s fine but it’ll only affect newly generated pawns. Not sure what you mean by names exactly but yes lots of names are different in certain places to allow better disambiguation

will configuring xenotypes midway into a run mess anything up? also the names are different in the mod menu than what they are ingame for me

Maybe one day, it's been asked before but it's not a quick job. 1.6 is definitely highest priority rather than new features

would it be possible to add a copy/paste function for the apparel section?

Not really you can change a specific pawn type or all the pawn types in a faction to be a different HAR race but you can’t say like 30% of this and 20% of that. And the percentage of each pawn type is fixed. If you could pick random they’d probably all turn up nude because the cloths you picked would only be valid if you got lucky

Can I use this to change the spawn rates of HAR species in Vanilla factions? Without Biotech.

@SCEEPWARE Thanks! Idk how did I miss that…

There's an addon linked at the end of the description to use custom xenotypes.

How do I set custom xenotypes to certain Pawn Types? Add new option only shows premade ones

Maybe eventually

Is it possible to add a Race swap at the general level for a faction? From HAR races?

@SCEEPWARE shouldn't have an issue with it. But it's always plausible with some factions the caravan isn't actually set in the faction and is just generated by hard coding in another mod for example. Experimental mode is a bit more brutal and can help in cases like that.
