if I make a meal or desert (vanilla expanded cooking) using insect jelly will it have the same effects?

Furried imagin if the hive queen xenotype has a gene that lets her choose the genotype of her offspring maybe the other xenotypes could be updated to being sterile to make the queen extra important to colony growth

hive queen when?

UPDATE:
New Xenotype: Splice-Locusts!
Splice-Locusts are a rare caste that specializes in operating spacecraft and surviving in space. They are fast and capable of a little of bit everything needed to make a living on a ship, but need expensive drugs to keep alive.

@Droider Well a locust would be better at planting than a scarab, they could have a faster movement speed and a short flying leap
Droider 14 Jul @ 10:58am 
there was a past reddit post with designs for exactly those two. queen i like but i dont get how a ocust xenotype could differ from the previous ones
Sikri 14 Jul @ 5:50am 
do you think you might add in locusts and the hive queen? i think they would be super cool
Droider 12 Jul @ 9:16am 
could it be possible to add an ideology precept that nullifes the mood penalty from splice transformation?
Droider 10 Jul @ 7:57pm 
commenting so ill know when you update, love this mod

Hello, I used this mod in the 1.6 unstable version. During the battle with the insect nest, I noticed that a pawn with the immunity to poisoning gene was knocked down by the poisoning effect directly caused by the invader's stinger attack. Is this a bug? (This message was translated using a translator.)

Dumb question but does the jelly metabolisim work if the jelly is cooked into a meal?

the insector cover art is a baddie

1.6 Removed copy localed assemblies

1.6 Update
In 1.6, turning into a bug is now considerably worse for your mental health.

Hello, is this still being worked on and maintained?
Karb 22 Apr @ 2:00pm 
The screenshots for the mod make me once again wonder if the developers know that the "Thorax" is the middle part of an insect and not the hind part.
The hind part is called the "abdomen"
dominickwriter 19 Apr @ 6:39pm 
okay red baron what the actual fuck are you talking about?
Furried 18 Apr @ 12:26am 
red baron what the f*ck

Dude I'd let her lay her eggs in me like those chestbursters from alien if it means I could lick the sweat off her stinger

Does animated faces work with this?

as someone who don't use VFE Insectoids 2, I thank you still

any chance these get a bugblood gene
FireCart 6 Jan @ 2:18pm 
I'm not sure if anyone else feels the same way, but I feel like the morale debuff probably isn't enough for permanantly rewriting genes, maybe make it a -20 instead of a -10 or something to make you actually think before doing it?

I gotta know: who is the artist that did the cover image? (If the author and artist are one and the same, forgive me for assuming otherwise)

I don't think the main xenotypes are really for me, but I adore the possibilities these add for different xenotypes!
Lovecraft 17 Nov, 2024 @ 5:04pm 
Also is there a way to make the xenotype gene injector use custom xenotypes?
Lovecraft 17 Nov, 2024 @ 3:20pm 
When trying to make a custom xenotype the icons in this mod aren't there. Also compatibility with insector would be nice. The insect skin gene conflicts with the custom head genes
John Li 5 Nov, 2024 @ 2:19pm 
????????
Vectrix 25 Oct, 2024 @ 10:42pm 
same question any plans for VFE insectoids 2 Compatibility?
masło 18 Oct, 2024 @ 1:59pm 
will you add compatibility with vfe insectoids 2?
The Lord Pootis 13 Oct, 2024 @ 9:57pm 
Could you maybe update the toxin injection ability to be unable to target mechanoids and the such? because for some reason it works against all mechs which means a group of the mega spider variants can basically just insta kill any single mech via toxic build up which the mech should be immune to to begin with.
UncleRippu 26 Sep, 2024 @ 4:52am 
maybe we could get some integration with vre insectors where the insect jelly genes can also be geneline upgrades?

Does this mod have facial animation compatability?

how do I let my hive stop loosing maintenance
[The] Force 30 Aug, 2024 @ 3:03pm 
Damn, now I need a patch for this and insector that allows insectors to take these as part of their evolutions
StorytellerRex 27 Aug, 2024 @ 11:55am 
im not suprised.
Chimbo 24 Aug, 2024 @ 2:19pm 
Amazing mod, it's my favorite Insectoid Xenotype, but could you tweak Exogelatin so that it's not recognized as a negative Hediff for Unnatural Healing and similar? Very annoying needing to wait until it wears off to cure scars or missing fingies.
Electron 21 Aug, 2024 @ 6:57am 
Update : it's just on the VFE : Insectoid 2 bugs so it is a compatibility issue
Electron 21 Aug, 2024 @ 6:55am 
Hello, I really like the mod but I seem to have a bug, when I tame an insectoid from VFE: Insectoid 2 my colonists really really want to kill it, is this a compatibility issue or just an common bug found on every bug ?
Hedigo 19 Aug, 2024 @ 3:25pm 
even more specific, overhead mountain specifically
Hedigo 19 Aug, 2024 @ 3:18pm 
... seems like it is JUST under cave roofing specifically.
Hedigo 19 Aug, 2024 @ 3:07pm 
I seem to be having an issue where food under my mountain ceiling cant be selected for conversion into jelly, but when i take it outside it works fine. Im not sure *why* this has suddenly started happening, and im not going to figure it out right *now* since i have over 400 mods, but its. Interesting to deal with. It doesnt show up in the logs, either, just says that whatever is underneath the roof is considered not edible.
Mr. Hollowed 18 Aug, 2024 @ 3:38am 
Hey, you see that bug? Would.
