[potentially solved] regrow limbs not working
Regrow limbs is one of the best, if not the best, psycasts added by this mod, but it can be difficult to use. Personally, I have experienced issues with it not working once cast, but I believe i have figured them out.

1: One cast does not regrow everything. It regrows limbs and heals scars in what seems to be a random order. The issue here is that if a pawn is scarred it might seem like the cast did nothing -- that is because scars heal gradually and if you are not paying attention it might seem like nothing has regrown. If your pawn has a bunch of injuries and you don't see any "regrowing limbs" show up I think this is why (though I would love if someone could confirm it, since I was very confused about this -- it is hard to keep track of scars healing during normal gameplay, especially since healing continues after the coma ends).

2: limbs will not regrow if they have been replaced with a prosthetic, even a bad one. Make sure to remove any wooden replacement limbs first.

3: you can only use this psycast when your pawn is drafted. it will not show up otherwise

4: I used this on a deathresting pawn and it appeared to do nothing. I am not sure if that is because it doesnt work during deathrests or if its just issue 1 (the pawn had quite a few scars). It would be great if someone could clarify this

I hope this helps, because while trying to figure these problems out I saw a bunch of people asking about them and not many answers online

The regrow limbs spell works as intended. NEver had troubles with it.

Just keep in mind you can't "spam" the spell...

1 - Nothing stacks. The regrow limbs timer is 24 hours. Casting it twice won't make it any longer.

2 - Once a wound is found, the healing process starts, with an individual 100% healing process timer depending on the involved limb max HP

3 - Because of that you will have two timers on your pawn. One about the regrow limb spell. That one is shown on the mood tab. And another one shown in the health tab, right before the limb to heal.


4 - You will have to wait for the health tab timer to deplete before another wound is treated.

5 - At this moment if the "regrow limb" status is already gone, you can safely cast the same spell again to restore any further missing limb.

I'm using VPE since 1.3 and it never disappointed me. Works like a charm.


PS: The spell will first heal the "worst" wound... But yeah it is approximative sometimes as i've already seen the game healing a missing nose before a scar in the brain... Scars in the brain are a massive debuff to consciousness... With many penalties... While a missing nose only makes your pawn uglier... But that's nothing really as both nose and scars are fixed fast.

PPS: Yeah regrow limb only works once a pawn is drafted. Many VPE spells works the same way. Must be an engine limitation i guess.

PPPS: Deathresting is for vampires pawn, they already have a self-reGENEration process that is constantly active...

Does this cast effect things like "Frail" and "Bad back"? they are neither scars nor missing limbs so I'd guess not.
