Seeming to have an issue where androids enter a 'formatting' mental state and walk off the map before I notice

Seems to be working on 1.6, haven't encountered any unexpected behaviours with it while using Vanilla Psycasts Expanded as well

See third Paragraph of Description.

dude 1.6?

1.6?

Is this Compatible with Combat Extended? Interms of their armour ratings?

Thanks for making this mod. It allowed me to make a pawn that matched a certain theme I was going for. Although I wanted to mention that while you can install an android with psychic coils, it becomes a problem when you try to put them through an android behaviour table, as it will be unable to change due to conflicting psychic coils and psychically deaf.

Is it normal to always loop on the debug log？

oops i thaught this was that mod i wasn't paying attention sorry XD

@Azraile this mod doesn't touch the androids hunger/power or caravaning at all, so the issues you're having will be with the base mod (Vanilla Races Expanded: Android), not with this mod specifically. I hope you're able to get your problems fixed though!

Love this mod! I mean to ask... Is there any way to resurrect dead androids?

Androids seem to be specifically coded to not be a valid target for Puppeteer psycasts, which seems odd since psychic deafness should already prevent that.

Dont know if its a mod conflict or i somehow made a terminator but even after taking 1000 rounds and all limbs shot off an android from another tribe was still walking towards me like a terminator.

So glad you were able to port the mods over so more people can enjoy them!

I've added a link to your translation to all three of the mods in the description so even if this comment gets buried, people can find it!

Thanks!

Oh! Friends,I think your mod is extremely interesting, but unfortunately, there's no Chinese translation. Therefore, I've translated it into Mandarin for domestic users to enjoy. Please don't mind. Here's the link to the Chinese-localized

No problem at all, please let me know if anything else comes up!

I knew that VPE was inevitably not going to play nice with android psycasters, I was just waiting for it to to finally show up lol, I anticipate that at least a couple more psycasts don't have intended behavior

(There is a current bug where androids are immune to the psychic coma inflicted by some psycasts like Split Mind or Timeskip meditation, but for now I'm calling it a feature until I can find a satisfying alternative.)

Thanks! Should be able to try it out a bit later.

Bug should be squashed now, neither Reformatting nor Solar Flared mental breaks will be passed along to puppets at any point.

Technically this means the puppets will function when the master isn't, but that's a sacrifice I'm making for my own sanity.

Visual exceptions really is a lifesaver. Glad I could help!

Oh thank god you found this! I've been hunting this error in my own game for a while now.

Now I can finally start fixing it.

Last update on this. Android mental states/breaks seem to be a problem in general, especially with not ending properly if at all. solar flared freezes puppets permanently

Relevant error: https://pastebin.com/dptGfpRV

wasn't caught by the log

Using puppeteer psypath with android brings the game to it's knees. The human puppets get the reformatting mental state (as puppets copy the puppeteer's mental states and breaks). This throws out an extreme number of errors, and the humans will not clear the mental state on their own even after the android is done.

It does now? Huzaa! They updated since I last did a serious android run then.

@Moonshine Fox
The Android Behavior station lets you change subroutines mid-game!

It requires the AndroidTech research which requires going pretty deep into Mechtech, and also requires a second pawn to operate the machine while one android is inside it, but it can let you add or remove the Psychic Coils subroutine!

This is pretty awesome! Now if only I could find a way to have my androids edit themselves mid-game

Not a bad idea! I'm in the process of ensuring the mod is performance friendly, so I'll try and squeeze some sensitivity genes into the next update!

you should add upgrades that increase or decrease psi sensitivity

Nice, I've been using it with VPE for a bit now myself, if anyone encounters any issues let me know (To be honest I didn't expect this mod to blow up quite like this, but I'm glad there's other people who wanted psychic androids!)

I suspect there's gotta be a few psycasts that may not play well with a non-flesh character that's also psychically sensitive, but there's only one way to find out!

can confirm that it plays fine with VPE!

Lets gooooo

Hell yaeh !!!!

Bro, I literally just went to the workshop to find this exact thing and you posted it literally today! I Feel Blessed! Take My Points!

I like this as an upgrade. I think the other mod that did this just made them all psychically capable by default.

Good god, finally my superdeathbots can also use magic! Thanks!

Cool idea
