Subbed, great mod. Get your rest, some people man lol

People that adamant about pirates clumping should just use Realistic Planets instead of bothering some random modder

For those who wants factions like Pirates to be scattered around you should sub to "Faction customizer" mod. It adds an ability to delete or add settlements as well as move them around. So you basically need this mod to organize factions around the globe and you need Faction customizer to rellocate settlements for your liking. Perfect combo

@Samuel_Bucher What you mean a whole nation of pirates don't make sense. In real history there was some times where pirates banded together and made their own thing that rival nations. Like Republic of Pirates and then some Chinese Pirates had a pirate confederation that rivaled the dynasty that was ruling for a little bit. Also in a lot of scifi and fantasy there like nations of pirates or pirates with massive territory and fleet. So it does make sense.

@Boots thanks for making this mod.

Thank you so much for this! Some thankless individuals might not appreciate it but they are only the stupid minority. Keep up the good work!!

That's what multiple pirate factions are for...

I rly like the Idea of faction areas. Now it makes way more sense to be allied to some factions over others, some territory is rather end game and some a pleasant environment. I agree, some factions should rather stay scattered. I wish I could mod myself, I'll have an eye open for anything you might bring in future. Thx for this mod so far, this is huge! <3 And let me know if anything like that comes up :)

Make your own mod I do want to improve this but works been killing me

I'm not complaining about the name. I'm complaining about the functionality.

Do you have anything better to do then complain about the name of a Rimworld mod

This isn't sensible, actually. A whole nation of pirates makes no sense. Some factions should remain scattered.

@SaberTask try Norland

Mithlorn said something I found pretty interesting? Medieval worlds / midworlds would be closer to this. Though, if Rimworld was instead named.. Midworld (lol) it would have to play very differently.

Maybe Rimworld will get DLCs until the end of the human race, or maybe there'll be a sequel when our modern computational technology is outdated, maybe then we'd finally have Midworld (with an end goal such as complete planet dominance/unification).

Just Wait Till Sum1 Forks The Empire Mod Come Out For 1.6 , Ts Gon Hit

The vanilla faction system used to not really make sense before xenotypes, but I'd argue that they're pretty reasonable in distribution now if you don't change too much. This is still a good mod if you want a more politically conforming rimworld for whatever reason.

Lorewise, a rimworld is supposed to exhibit disunified settlement as a faction's basis generally involves some kind of initial scattering event(s). More unified settlement would make sense on a medieval world or midworld (close to modern technology). Factions are like tribal or true confederacies at the moment where each settlement is physically separated yet beholden to the totality's positions.

does this work in 1.5? ive been looking for a mod like this for a bit

@Freeasabird🕊

Factions don't do literally anything except exist. There is zero simulation of any other factions on the worldmap, outside of progressing health things specific to pawns you've interacted with in case you find them again. Those bases just sit there as a number in a database until you interact with them.

@Enrico, sadly, unless you have a mod that changes it, raids and faction interaction isn't tied to distance from the faction. So it's random which faction you're raided by or which factions send traders over. I think there are mods that change this, though

This makes sense, but I wonder if it's fun? Doesn't this make it more likely for a colony to keep being attacked by the same party over and over?

it is a good mod but needs some configuration like not including factions in the ''sensible'' system (for pirates etc.) also like the radius sizes for factions.

agree with the below comments. Would also be cool if a slider could be implemented to adjusts how scattered the factions are around the border

I also agree with Quilava, it'll be amazing to see some mixture of factions between borders. Otherwise a great mod, thank you for making this

yeah its alright

is it okay to have multiple Shattered Empire bases? I thought there should be only one.

I love you thanke you

Enjoyed mod, but also agree with comments below.

I also agree w comment below...

Agree w below comment...

I like how neat it look, but i think the border should be mixing for the border conflict vibe, only the inner core should stay unscatterred, that would be cool

Imma go crusader king on these nations and take ova that warudo

do you think it would be possible to make a mod with the same general idea, but instead of making these big nations it instead spreads bases across the sensible location for them (for example, impids in deserts, wasters in swamps, yttakin in tundras, civil nations in the temprate lands and rough nations in the mid areas (shrubland and boreal forests))

Kenshi style Rimworld fr fr. Now I can finally experience the true border crossing experience.

It's like the holy empire all over again. My mechinator will finally be executed on sight by the animist.

Yeah after further review I see how this is different and sometimes better than faction control with less hassle

@Senor Smoke maybe try Faction Control? If you get the settings right you can have 1.5 maps look like the picture.

so judging by the picture this mod organises the faction camps into strict defined territories and this works for Industrial Factions & Empires but Tribal, raider, bandits, & Pirates factions would not necessarily be beholden to such tactics.

Tribal's I could see caving out small territories in their native biome's of about 7 camps total with most tribe on the Rimworld describes as semi-nomadic this seems a right number moving around with seasons and following their pray, while cannibal tribes would be mixed into normal tribe lands in lower population about 1 cannibal tribe town for every 7 tribal faction towns in close proximity.

The Criminal Factions would be scattered covering trade route between the wealthy Industrial & Imperial factions or positioned in small close together 3 outpost cluster within a days walk of each other.

Dividing all into nations though a fine idea for a base mod is not how all these factions should behave... Imagine a whole nation of Space Pirates for example the kind of military power they would have would be incredible to say the least.

any chance this could get downdated to 1.5? lol

nice. seems like it takes the nation feature from the mod faction control

finally, thanks

Segregation GRAAAAAH

Ha, interesting.

finally a mod that SIMPLY does this and not a bunch of extra shit

Good boy. Gooood boy Boots.

Boots, I just want to say that I love that you're doing this. Once you can set some factions to not universally become nation-style, I'm going to replace Faction Control with this. Love to see it!

People seem to like it

Idk what faction control is I just made this because I wanted to

What's different from this to Faction Control?.... Faction Control has been around for 7 years.... https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2882785581&searchtext=faction+control

Great idea.
Having additional options for distributiing some factions (pirates for example) would be great.
