Nope, you can't make big NPC things the game engine doesn't like it
Bandet 6 Jul @ 3:28pm 
Can you make a giant sandworm mod? Basically just bigger model and a big fat hp tank for fun. Bless the Maker and His water. Bless the coming and going of Him. May His passage cleanse the world. May He keep the world for His people.

It's not really a Ai enabled issue it's definitely a mes issue so try the mes discord instead
Deapri 24 Mar @ 5:03pm 
@Engineer galaxy could you perhaps join the AiE discord server to get more in depth troubleshooting and be able to exchange logs and perhaps provide an example world file of the problem with minimal additional mods? (note if what I suspect is correct and it's in the storage settings files, the issue will not be reproducible for another user.)
Deapri 24 Mar @ 2:20pm 
Might be as simple as removing the mes settings files to let new ones populate. (At this point I assume they have installed the mod on a preexisting game and the MES creature spawner setting didn't trip with the addition of Planet creatures.
Engineer galaxy 22 Mar @ 7:41am 
I grilled the mod but it doesn't work I don't know what's wrong ((((
Chipstix213  [author] 22 Mar @ 12:17am 
I won't do that, it's incredibly simple, you subscribe to the mod, add it to you world via in game menu and it will load.
Engineer galaxy 21 Mar @ 6:44pm 
can you record a video on how to install the mod correctly and what to do to make the worms start appearing
Engineer galaxy 21 Mar @ 6:39pm 
I entered the commands that you wrote, nothing happens
Chipstix213  [author] 21 Mar @ 3:44am 
use command "/MES.GESAP" in the chat then paste the results into a notepad or similar if its working the sand worm spawn group should be at the end.
Engineer galaxy 21 Mar @ 3:10am 
Well, I'm on the planet Pertam
Engineer galaxy 21 Mar @ 3:08am 
and how to specify it? I just installed mods everything and waited until I was attacked, no one came or do I need to build a large base?
Deapri 20 Mar @ 1:06pm 
I've definable seen them recently...
Chipstix213  [author] 20 Mar @ 12:55pm 
Should work as long as it is the planet subtype is one listed and combat mode is disabled
Engineer galaxy 20 Mar @ 9:04am 
how do they work on my pertam they never appeared?
Chipstix213  [author] 17 Nov, 2024 @ 12:20am 
It was fixed before, I guess it's super fragile
Sterling Phoenix 16 Nov, 2024 @ 11:58pm 
Hm, you're right, spiders are also just as annoying. Do you know of any mods that fix that issue? Or is it just yet another backlogged low priority Keen fix.
Chipstix213  [author] 16 Nov, 2024 @ 11:47pm 
That's a issue with the keen behaviour, the same thing happens to spiders
Sterling Phoenix 16 Nov, 2024 @ 3:34pm 
Any way to improve the hitboxes on these things? I swear I can never hit them. They seem completely invincible 90% of the time.

From what I can tell, most of the issue is they aren't shootable when they are doing their digging animation, which they are doing almost non-stop.
Chipstix213  [author] 16 Nov, 2024 @ 12:33am 
I don't want people to get surprise worms because a planet has a bit of mars sand in its configuration. It has planets specifically chosen
JWickScari 15 Nov, 2024 @ 2:43pm 
Any way to make this work on any planet categorized as alien or mars-like? I think it would be great to see these spawn alongside spiders and your other alien animals mod
dabdude 1 Nov, 2024 @ 5:16pm 
i have mes a a, l c e+f, e a, and wreckage
dabdude 1 Nov, 2024 @ 5:10pm 
i have 4 + sand worm
Chipstix213  [author] 29 Oct, 2024 @ 12:49am 
Something seems to interfere with spawning, do you have a lot of MES mods?
dabdude 28 Oct, 2024 @ 4:58pm 
i was on pretan for 2 hours and no sandworms
dabdude 28 Oct, 2024 @ 4:57pm 
do the sand worms have a timed spawn
Chipstix213  [author] 17 Oct, 2024 @ 3:51am 
That's certainly something...

Very creative video, almost monty python
Soulfood 16 Oct, 2024 @ 7:35am 
It's so good to have a creature in SE other than the 6-legged bugs. Thanks for this! Two of your worms make an appearance in part 3 of my video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1MRIIGKOm4&list=PL-zbRw7CgFKXNY4KCvLXrkTBKVUjDsZNG&pp=gAQBiAQB
Chipstix213  [author] 22 Sep, 2024 @ 12:43am 
Glad to hear that, thanks for checking. Good luck with finding the conflict. Could be some load order issues
Demaros 21 Sep, 2024 @ 8:27pm 
Hey mate, just a quick update. I've done some testing and can confirm that Sandworms do spawn on Satreus. I tested with only the planet, victims of clang and sandworm mods (plus dependencies) and it all worked as intended. Something about my mod-list is causing them not to spawn but I haven't figured out what just yet.

So yeah, nothing wrong with your mod it's user error :D Thanks for all your help
Chipstix213  [author] 15 Sep, 2024 @ 12:48am 
I think because it shows up in /MES.GESAP everything is set correctly perhaps there is another mod that is changing the spawn priority
Chipstix213  [author] 14 Sep, 2024 @ 11:52pm 
Ideally uploaded to steam and message me on discord
Demaros 14 Sep, 2024 @ 4:54pm 
I checked the subtype ID and it looks correct. How do you want me to send the world to you?
Chipstix213  [author] 12 Sep, 2024 @ 3:41am 
I would have to have a copy of your world for testing. Best guess is I don't have the right planet subtype
Demaros 12 Sep, 2024 @ 3:17am 
The vanilla spiders are spawning without issue (no manual commands), but the Sandworms don't spawn at all either with or without commands.
Chipstix213  [author] 12 Sep, 2024 @ 2:03am 
What do you mean naturally?
If they are spawning what is the issue? Is it planet specific problem?
Demaros 12 Sep, 2024 @ 1:42am 
Not sure if this helps but spiders do spawn naturally
Demaros 10 Sep, 2024 @ 2:53pm 
Yep, I get the message onscreen that the command was sent, but still nothing happens.
Chipstix213  [author] 10 Sep, 2024 @ 5:21am 
Have you tried /MES.SC to force a creature spawn?
Demaros 10 Sep, 2024 @ 3:51am 
Nope combat phase is disabled in the settings.
Chipstix213  [author] 9 Sep, 2024 @ 11:19pm 
Check if combat mode is enabled, you don't get animals is it on.
Demaros 9 Sep, 2024 @ 5:48pm 
Hey Mate, I'm having an issue spawning the worms on Saterus, they don't spawn either naturally or manually. Using /MES.GESAP shows Pertam_Sandworm is eligible to spawn yet nothing happens when using /MES.SC.Pertam_Sandworm.
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Chipstix213  [author] 27 Aug, 2024 @ 2:44pm 
Only needs a spawn group. I would suggest asking the creator or the he planet to make a add-on profile
Raynor 27 Aug, 2024 @ 11:03am 
"how would one add these to Lezuno (Ares at war)"

I would like to know this too please! :lunar2019grinningpig:

how would one add these to Lezuno (Ares at war)
Alex0273 7 Jun, 2024 @ 10:22pm 
I am having an issue where interior turrets are firing in front of the sand worms so they can't hit them at all I can hit them fine with pistols and rifles it's just the turrets that can't hit them
Chipstix213  [author] 13 May, 2024 @ 12:16pm 
Are you planning with a arachnophobia mod like this https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2981467755

You can publish the screenshots on steam and I could see them from your profile
jekabess 13 May, 2024 @ 9:07am 
у меня вместо червей какие картинки появлеяются ,можно ли с вами как то связаться чтоб я мог скинуть вам скрины?
Chipstix213  [author] 13 May, 2024 @ 2:10am 
I don't understand what you mean, the textures are hard coded into the model unless you try copying the mod it shouldn't break
jekabess 13 May, 2024 @ 1:25am 
Привет,можешь еще подсказать,прилетел получается на планету там вылезли черви только у них нет текстуры а картинки(смайлы тд)как это исправить?
