Not ours, no

hello i dont know if this is a va aspirations fix or a ferny mod fix but i get a red error on startup i think because of the VA aspiration getting confused on the names

here are my logs https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/b5a8913e93b9f1df8e7a152c07dfbc8f

[Anomaly Fleshbeasts or Sarg Fleshbeasts?] Patch operation

We don't have enough time right now to post changelogs for every small bugfix. You can see the commits in our GitHub

Forgive me if its a dumb question, but where can i see the change logs for this? (+Other Vanilla Expanded stuff). The Change Notes section seems to be an automated message with no real details.

Anomaly specific aspirations only load if the DLC is there

Is there a way to force each pawn to have five inspirations? I'd like them to have better chances of fulfilling four of them.

Also, one oddity: One of mine has an aspiration to consume a body part of a fleshbeast (or something similar), which I presume is from Anomaly - but I don't even have the DLC. I know how to disable that; are there any other Anom-specific ones I should turn off while I'm at it?

Will be fixed as soon as Oskar can push today's update

Could not resolve cross-reference to Verse.GeneDef named PsychicAbility_Deaf (wanter=invalidGenes)

Does this mod have a requirement that's not listed? I'm just using the vanilla expanded mods and the framework required.

@Boatmurdered, Just open the list of commands in devmode and type "asp" in the search bar - you'll immediately be shown two obvious options for adding and removing aspirations.

I love this mod so much even though I never really chased the aspirations it's always nice when they happen.

However for my latest playthrough I'm planning to do very specific ones, and I know you can change it through the dev mode, but is there actually a short guide on the commands that you use. I usually end up flailing around until I can find it.

No, only the car from Tier 3 VVE

I'm having a problem with the "Ride in the classic car" aspiration. What vehicle even counts a classic car? I tried the Rolls Royce Silver Ghost from Alpha Vehicles - Early cars but it doesn't work

Real great ideas @The Atomic Option, i hope they will add some of them in the future

I really like this mod, but one thing it's missing is an aspiration for every skill. There's the create legendary work for the crafter, but there should be things like:
"mine gold" for the miner,
"cook a lavish meal" for the cook,
"construct a monument" for construction (e.g. finish a construction quest),
"tame a thrumbo" for animals,
"harvest ambrosia" or "plant a bonsai" for plants,
"succeed as the negotiator at a peace talk" or "recruit someone from a hostile faction" for social,
"land a shot from 35 tiles" for shooting,
"research a spacer technology" or "find gold with the deep scanner" for intellectual

A colonist I recruited has the aspiration to join the deserters, which I think should count as completed considering I took in the Chased Deserter early on in the game?

I adore this mod so much for bringing colonists to life even more, it makes me do a lot of weird stuff I normally wouldn't consider!

Only base game Bionic Spine

for some reason giving my pawn advanced bionic spine from EPOE doesnt satisfy the get bionic spine aspiration. is it bugged or only bionic spine work for this aspiration

@moo Some Odyssey related content that overlaps with VE hasn't been fully accounted for in all the mods yet and will have to be corrected in future updates but most likely will sometime soon. I have similar issues with VE mods interacting with each other.

Not sure if it's intended, but I keep getting Aspiration messages in the top left that are auto-completed while randomizing starting colonists before the game starts. I guess it isn't really hurting anything.. Just seems weird. (iirc it is growing old and being married and having kids, etc, basically things that happen automatically through generating a new pawn)

Three XML errors in Aspirations_VAERoyal.xml

These animals do not exist in VAE-Royal Animals as thingdefs_races:

Could not resolve cross-reference to Verse.ThingDef named VAERoy_Peacock (wanter=thingDefsForRelation)
Could not resolve cross-reference to Verse.ThingDef named VAERoy_Quail (wanter=thingDefsForRelation)
Could not resolve cross-reference to Verse.ThingDef named VAERoy_Swan (wanter=thingDefsForRelation)

Can I create my own aspirations? Like, I want to taste thrumbo meat or I Want to achieve a 20 in a skill I'm passionate about. Or would compiling assemblies by necessary?

Oops, I meant Insector, not Insectoids 2.

Are there plans to integrate Insectoids 2 flight-giving gene(s) with the "Fly" aspiration?

@Ziyad, In the list of actions in dev mode, just type "aspiration" in the search bar and you'll see it.

Hello! How exactly do I change aspirations through dev mode? I don't see an option anywhere but I AM a total goober

For some reason some aspirations like crafting a legendary quality item just don't trigger no matter how many legendary item the pawn makes...

Nope

is it possible the aspirations are tied to home map in some way? I'm playing a nomad run of 1.5 in prep for 1.6 (abandoning and re-settling) and my colonists don't seem to have resolved any of the aspirations, even though they definitely have

No, this is 100% intended. Pawns don't need to have realistic aspirations and they don't need to fulfill them. For example, I want to have sex with a supermodel

my pawn who's incapable of violence has the "kill someone" aspiration. is there some way around this (like killing second-hand through a mech or animal) or is it over for her

Hi there! I was wondering if some aspirations were perhaps trait locked, since I never see them generate, and since some traits prevent certain aspirations. Like, I've never seen the aspiration Burn or Use Luciferium generate, are they restricted to only showing up on teetootaler or chemical interest pawns for example?

What counts as a flame weapon? Ive tried a few but they dont seem to unlock the aspiration. Do they actually need to be used against an enemy pawn?

is there a dev mode command to force complete a particular aspiration for a pawn?

No

can i disable this mod mid-run?

Yeah, no plans to tweak that, though

Oh and also Ideology stuff if ideoligions are turned off but the DLC itself is active.

Pawns can wish to destroy an insect hive even if the insect faction was removed from the world.
I'm not planning on making a formal bug report for this.

Suggestion:
Make a mutation of arm to flesh whip from the Twisted obelisk anomaly count in aspirations "Get a tentacle"

Can this be removed mid-save?

Yeah, that's not a bug report, so I can't tell you anything

Hey i just encountered this bug ( https://www.reddit.com/r/RimWorld/comments/opfejn/pressing_next_after_choosing_an_ideology_doesnt/ ) and to fix it i had to remove aspirations expanded from the mod list, the game worked fine after. Is this a known bug or is there anything i can change to play with this mod. I am running a couple other vanilla expanded mods with prepare carefully and visit settlements.

That'd basically require a new mod to be made from scratch

Would be great if aspirations were based on some kind of conditions. I mean, I have a colonist who wants to create a legendary work… they have no passions related to crafting, artistic, or even construction, and about a 3 in each of those skills. Not only is it basically impossible, it doesn't really make any sense from a storytelling standpoint.

The aspiration only cares if Anomaly is installed

Bug: I have anomaly events disabled, but my pawn still got aspiration "play with golden cube" which is not possible with anomaly events disabled... (disabled via the anomaly settings in AI storyteller)

Well, without a proper bug report, what do you want me to say besides "it doesn't happen with only this mod"?

No, seriously, how do you think I can help?

Very helpful...
I did my due diligence by reading through to see what could be causing this problem, and made sure my situation doesn't fall under the stated known issues. You are the author here, considering how many people are commenting about issues with aspirations resetting on death, perhaps there's something else going on here? I have nothing that should conflict here.

Yes, another mod...

I don't have the corpse info mod, or anything that (I think) would mess with corpses, yet I had a character's aspirations reset upon resurrection with a mech serum. Any idea the issue here?
