I've been trying a bit around with this mod and gene mod and you can acutally create Apini with insect genes so they are not "baseliners" anymore. I've created workers, drones, fighters and a queen. They all look pretty okay except the antennas which are obviously doubled. But it is still very decent. If anyone wants to try give it go. I'll start a new nest tomorrow!

Would it be possible (if not too much to ask), since we can virtually create insectoids like bees using genes, to create a mod only with Honey and Beeswax production?

Would be amazing to see this with the newest features of the new dlc and generally the new update.

You should prolly look into having it so the Learning Helper tips for this mod doesnt appear literally every single time... a minor problem of course, but an annoyance none the less. Other than that, nice work on the mod overall!

I've had the same error as Burnout.

having a Queen Apini as the colony leader would be the icing on top

I see they dont have stings, however I dont seem to be able to install stingers on them through operation, is this intentional? If I do it through the dev mode does it break the game ?

@modraneth @bhaer @ravensfaire @malsaeran there is an updated version here https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2204437968

@Bhaer Not an expert but I'd guess because this mod was made for ALPHA 17 lmao

when i spawned some apini they were just pink screens, what is going ON?

Go to their Discord to get the most recent version of the Mod!

this will never ever have an update ?
im waitting this mod for years already...

If you do not want to add playable queens then maybe do something like what they did with the mantodean mod with animals which lay eggs which then hatch into apini

yeah, keep an eye on that discord. someone's maintaining but it's not on the Steam Workshop.

please, please would SOMEONE pick this mod back up T.T I want it so much it burns in my SOUL!

it not wokry

I'd like an updated version of this on steam please

curiously this would make for a fun combination with the "rim bees" mod

Can we get a 1.1 update on Steam please?

An updated version is available on the Humanoid Alien Races Discord server, which can be found at its workshop page:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=839005762&searchtext=Discord

Don't make us wait for 2.0

I need bee people in my life.

Update when?

Why is this not updated!? There's active development, with releases outside of the workshop going on!

I WANT 1.0

update pleeeease

Update it please

another vote for steam version update

Q. Why can't Apini have bionic legs?
A. Balancing issues: imagine, four bionic legs. Nyoooom.
Nonono. There is no way, that that bee will be alone..
NYOOOOOOOOOOM NYOOONYOOOOOOOOOOM
NYOOOOOOOOOOOM NYOOOOOOOOOOM NYOOOOOOONYOOOM
NYOOOOOOOOOOM NYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
NYOOOOOOOOOOMNYOOOOOOOOOOM NYOOOOOOOOOOM

So, um, why isn't the updated version put on Steam?

Yeah, someone picked it up after my updates, and implemented even more stuff. Not quite sure why it hasn't been uploaded on steam, but you can get it from the Rimworld Alien Races discord - https://discordapp.com/invite/XMCRj46

They have the most recent version on their Discord weirdly enough.

can you update this mod?

to steam?

Do you mind if i post an updated version of the mod

The Discord server of HAR. It can be found on the HAR workshop page:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=839005762

What is the humanoid alien races discord?

Probably not for a while.

Will there be an updated version on steam tho?

There is a download link to the updated version in the Humanoid Alien Races Discord serrver.

@Zaltys
Where is a link to dis update. As i want to assimilate this mod into my horde of mods.

I released a 1.0 update at the Alien Races discord.
Includes everything form this version, plus most of the additions from the 0.18 which never made it to Steam

The race-specific stuff (such as new bionics) might still have some bugs, but overall the race is playable. The factions also work fine, so they're recruitable if you play as some other race. Azuri will mostly show up as raiders, whereas Apini rarely raid but may be sold by slavers or recruited from among visitors.

someone is going to release a mostly working version for 1.0 once they get permission from the devs, im pretty sure

miss this mod, and miss my bee colonies too

I hope this mod gets an update

this mod is dead right?

1.0 update possibilities soon? this was such an enjoyable mod

I'll be looking forward to the update, the Apini are some of the most adorable race options for RimWorld, and I was sad seeing them left behind when I came back to play recently.
