Can't live without that underground base! Thankfully starting over means I can wait for 1.6 for a bit. but excited all the same!

oh sick! im sorry i didnt see, but id be very interested if you could help me make a 1.6 version that works or something similar

no worries, was indeed on my side!! i wasnt paying attention, so it turns out i thought it had died while freezing it, but it had actually just been downed and spawned a bunch of fleshbeasts, so I only *thought* it had died :p

once i had actually captured it, it was very fun!! had a few undergrounder colonists living down there, and using its bioferrite for generators was easily enough to keep them sustained down there with sunlamps and hydroponics and such

also, ive been looking into C# modding lately, and id be happy to look into how the game triggers the pit gate to close when the dreadmeld dies! its probably just an event listener thats tied to that world space or something, so it might be a fairly simple fix. will have a look later and let you know what i find!

uh that sounds like an issue on your side, the patch ive made just removes the "force death on downed" thingo

sorry im not good with this stuff

very good mod, now i can turn the undercave into my secret underground research cave!! just wondering though, how do you actually down the dreadmeld? everything ive tried just kills it and explodes it into other fleshbeasts. ive tried hypothermia, fire, heating the room up, toxic buildup, all sorts

that sounds baller as hell but i dont know C# :sob:

something that would be nice is if the dreadmeld is captured the pit will stop spawning fleshbeast out of it, but you will get raids from flesh beast trying to free the dreadmeld.

yea I don't want the gate to close I learned you can build a base in it and it'd be so cool to have the dread meld captured and defend it since if it dies your underground bases goes with it.

Maybe I dont want the pitgate to close...

not a bad idea mir_38, the issue is my lack of C# knowledge

Idea.
>Extract dreadmeld's support nervebundle.
>Nervebundle becomes living, immobile creature when deployed in pit gate
>Kill it
>804 fleshmasses die in horrific geological collapse. More tonight on RimNews

oh hey, exactly what i was lookin for!
