just lookin back over here to check in :3 really cool to see my idea blew up, hope its not to much work on you haha a great start in your modding career

Yeeeeesssssssss, thank you so much.
(Now all I need is a way to organize the genes and making new xenotypes won't be so slow and awful.)

After looking into it the issue is [1.6 Fork] Xenotype And Ideology Buttons TitleScreen. The [1.5 Fork] Xenotype And Ideology Buttons TitleScreen works on 1.6 and a lot better. It seems the 1.6 fork changed its world generation code and takes longer than the 1.5 fork. I can try to make it compatible but I think it would be better if the 1.6 fork was fixed or redone.

Looking into this

It doesn't work with the Xenotype and Ideology editor buttons on title screen mod. It won't preview anything.

Not working with "[1.6 Fork] Xenotype And Ideology Buttons TitleScreen" Pawn doesn't display and comes back with error

Hmm, getting some red errors when trying this mod in the xenotype creater using the main menu buttons mod. Nothing is being displayed either. Here's a log: https://pastebin.com/4EgAnEUe

@NihilRetnar issue should now be fixed!

thank ya dood!

@XSlayer300 sorry took longer for me to get the show hide buttons going but got the update out!

@NihilRetnar I'm looking into the bug and seems to only effect the main menu XenoPreview but looking into a fix.

@Oxirane I may be able to add an ideology option for each pawn to see those restrictions. Currently it's random so selecting a certain one should work. I'm going to be making a discussion on future content updates and options. Have some ideas floating around

Thank you so much for making this, I've wished it was a thing for a few months now and was considering learning to mod just to make this!

I do have a feature suggestion. How hard do you think it would be to also consider apparel/tattoo/hair restrictions from the active Ideology, if any? So that, for instance, pawns would render with the Ideology's preferred apparel or gender apparel restrictions.

I don't think this is working with Big and Small Framework... https://pastebin.com/5H5zJQ6K

I literally feel like I'm going to die over how happy I am to see this mod.

Does this work with unborn babies, so we can see what they look like before birth?

thank ya man. can't wait for the update :)

Can do. I’ll get that out in the next update within 5 days. I’ll look at some cosmetic mods while I’m at it to make sure it all looks good since my testing was just vanilla.

Is it possible to have an option to disable tattoos and disable clothing on preview? Some mods alter the body of the pawn and I do not like to reroll lots of times to get a pawn without clothing while I edit xenotypes.

Thank you for the suggestion. I'll check on that.

if possible, the mod that adds the xeno and idology buttons, has its own code that spawns a decoy world in order to create an idology, mabye you could sort of peek or copy that mods coding for help

Indeed it is. Very stubborn bug. Since the main menu hasn’t loaded a world I can’t spawn pawns. You have to currently spawn a world to use the mod. I’m still trying to spawn a world myself but it is proving to be… difficult to say the least.

ironically thats appears to be the bug that i showed during testing of this mod :O

Since this is an issue for many of you, I am working on the fix. I have to bend Rimworld to my will.

I was just about to ask too

I was gonna report this problem, someone was faster than me xD
Btw thanks for the mod, it's amazing

@Balkoth So the issue I am seeing is that my mod can't generate a pawn if a world isn't generated. In short, since the main menu hasn't generated a world no pawns can spawn. I didn't run into this in testing because I always generated a world and in the pawn creation I clicked the Xenotype editor. A fix I see is I have my mod make a "dummy" world in the background. Though I have no idea how hard that is going to be and if it'll effect performance. It'll take me awhile until I figure that out. Thank you for reaching out about it. I'll update the mod to get rid of the error and say a world needs generated. Crazy bug.

What mod is it for editing xenotypes?

Here's an example with just the mod and a button to edit xenotypes from the main menu

That's what I did, it did nothing.

To see a pawn add a gene in the menu and a pawn will auto generate. Just click any gene in the gene window.

Great idea, although the UI just says 'add genes to preview' and nothing is showing.
