btw this is not uninstall friendly. It spams the lock with a missing status effect every tick, which leads to increasing lag in long play sessions. even if you are not human, it still tries to apply the status effect every tick.

@Chet Walters pretty sure its a vanilla ice tree but idr

That's a cool looking tree. Is it from any mod?

in real life, humans seems to randomly be so sturdy that 3 lightning strikes can't kill a guy but a whack to the head would be enough to put'em in a coma.

Ngl humans are sturdy little buggers with this mod and I greatly enjoy fighting em many thanks for makin this.

@43770gaming This mod should affect all humans, not just the player.

@Everyone who says the destruction of earth wouldn't affect Humans this way
Well doesn't this mod only affect playable characters? This would technically mean it only boosts you.

@Donirexian
i am going to say "Determination" but im not sure if everyone would appreciate me saying so.

resistence to cold is only suitable to canadians and eskimoes

@Fuyuno My race ability mods and FR should work together with no problems, let me know if you run into any issues though.

how does this behave with FR?

(Hopethisdoesn'tapplytothosepurplewearingroguemofo's.)

thats why humans seem to be all strong and shit.

think of primates with their strength, speed, and survival abilities. Aswell as apes and gorillas. they've gotten those characteristics because of their situation.

then give them battle-strategy, advanced knowledge within the field of technological design and creation. Aswell as having the ability to efficiently start an amazing civilization with space-faring ships and skyscrapers. Aswell as school, writing, reading and drawing.

VVVVV

So, all humans are genetically engineered super human god-like soldiers with this mod? Hmm... sounds like a cheat...

its work with ningen?

I think it's fine, but it seems a bit too strong? or is that just me?

Well if you guys don't like the resistance to those stuff, then what do you propose the buff for humans should be?

@SunnyD It's almost like different species who evolved on a multitude of different planets have different abilities and skills.

cool, but can you please just put all of these into one mod instead of several?

some changes to how each race is proficient with a type of weapon would be cool, good work

Sh

I dont see why humans would be superior to other races who developed just as we did... albeit in their own way.
Seems almost like, racist towards fictional races.

Zacharie it means they have to live by themselves on planets and such. With space travel some people might have been off world at the time .

destruction of earth would not have that effect. Every human except the one to escape (you) would have died and that would not make you magically more resistant. And other humans would just be humans who weren't on earth when it was destroyed. It would mean nothing, just that earth was gone.

@Meta Vekama
Humans are endangered now? That puts a dampener on my plans

Any possibility of social benefits like better prices?

This actually fits on a scientific level; while we lack the physical strength of other animals, we have comparatively greater resistance to shock and sudden death, much more efficient energy use (before farming and real weapon science, we were endurance predators who would literally walk at a mammoth until it died from exhaustion) and more efficient digestion.

*cue Imperial propaganda vid*

@Narrator
Thanks! I just have a real softspot for media that portays humans as something other than "the normal ones."
Thanks for creating a more subtle racial abilities mod, it's something that's been missing from Starbound for a while, and all the other modders seem to go a little overboard with this sort of thing.

@Meta Wow, you know your starbound lore well better than I do, I'll look into improving the mod based on that.

What everyone else is saying about humans being really tough is true too, although I don't see why the other races wouldn't share these advantages. Maybe give the humans elemental resistances to represent the diverse climates of their homeworld? (Since it’s pretty clearly established that the other races have a solid preference for a specific environment.) They do, however, have a pretty solid emotional toughness to them. After all, the loss of Earth wasn't just a cultural loss - if you pay attention to the lore, they lost a solid 90% of their population. Or possibly more, since they reclassified themselves as an endangered species. And yet, they still have some of the most cheerful and goofy quotes in the game.
…..
Sorry. I went a little fanboy there. I’m done now.

Actually, in Starbound, humans do have something unique about them. They're an entertainment culture. Proven by one quote humans have about the USCM Penal Colony Panel: "Prisoners are only allowed a maximum of thirty video games at one time. Talk about oppressive." Yet, if a hylotl inspects the same item they mention FRIGGIN' WATER BOARDING!
There's also a lot of interesting bits about humanity in the codex entry Human Census: Report. Including the information that humans are naturally adventurous, and it isn't uncommon for them to spend periods of their life living nomadically. However, due to the intense isolation, there are extremely few humans that choose to make a permanent home away from earth. After all, the largest recorded human colony had less than twenty inhabitants.

Checkmate, atheists.

And that just proves, that Humans aren't boring.

This actually fits rather well with Humans as a species. We are able to live anywhere on Earth, adapting to overcome any enviromental or ecological challenges we are faced with; just look at people who live in places that can easily be called "Tornado Alley" or have thousands of hostile creatures that can kill us if they decide their neighbor would make a good lunch. Giving humans more max hp compared to others shows we're more enduring than the other races, and is an appropriate boost for our race. It may be boring compared to the others, but we have people that live in places that, when they travel to a place like Alaska in winter, can walk around in shorts because, compared to where they normally live, that's "warm" weather.

Well, humans evolved to have faster healing than other animals. So maybe you could give them health regeneration, like how Apex have energy regeneration.

k thx

@Oryzn, yes this will work client side. Unless the server doesn't allow assets mismatch.

client side?

Came to say what Chancyre said. Perhaps split damage boosts between Floran and Humans. Floran get melee weapons, Humans get ranged.

These are good ideas. I'll play arournd with them and see what I can work out.

Since Humans are more familiar with ranged weapons such as guns, you might give them a bonus damage in ranged weapons, like Pistols, Snipers, etc....

30% ranged weapon damage and -10% melee damage?

Sory mate, but this entire mod is one line of code, so yeah, it's pretty borinh. As I said, I haven't come up with anything better, so it's nothing against you.
