P.S. But it is not critical. ;)

@DayWalker Yes, it should be.

Compatible with the latest version?

Mod has been Updated.

Not compatible with the latest version... :(

Hello! Please! Update you for Surviving Mars - "longer colonist lifespan"!

so I'm having an issue where colonists don't age. does anyone have a suggestion for figuring out what's causing this?

Check the description of the mod. It already has a link to a version where its double the effects of this one.

HI thank you so much for this mod. Is it possible to add an even longer life span for the colonists? Maybe double of what it is now? I always try to get the breakthrough forever young so I don't have to do an oldie dome, sigh!

Ok, I haven't started a new game yet, but I will use this mod, or the doubled one, when I do. I think they got to school as a child untill 6 Sols, then become youth after that.

The game I'm playing now, I have a sweet education set up where as fresh born childern they are shipped off to the KinderDome for school (Dome Filter Child: Thumbs up 5 Nurseries 4 schools), then shipped to the Career Center for the university (3 Universities, Dome fitler: Age Youth Thumbs up),

I get a trained specailist before they turn to adult. Using default growth. Here's hoping it sticks to time servered and not growth label.

Thanks, I'll let you know.

@Burr I'm pretty sure the games "school time" is based off an age group. So as an example, a colonist will be in school as a child, and once they become an adult they finish school. So the mod should make them goto school twice as long as in the base game. If it does not, let me know.

Hello, will this make going to school and university twice as long as well? Or do they still go to school for 6 Sols and then are childern in the university (assuming thats how the colony is set up)

Thanks

Yep, works fine for me. Works with most of the decent mods
as well.
I can report no conflict issues that i have seen running up
to 20 mods including this.

@HowMuhKevinNah You need to start a new game.

@♠Inebriated Bush Snake♠ - Your mod is causing problems for me. When colonists arrive, they stop and stack [i.imgur.com] at the end of the rocket's ramp. If I try to relocate them via a shuttle, they move to the nearest dome entrance and both the shuttle and colonist get stuck [i.imgur.com].

Great mod idea, but needs some polishing.

@everyone All known issues have been fixed in the last patch.

In 20+ years of modding i have seen some truly weird Er... Stuff.
Thats the thing most people DON'T get about modding. Modding
supported or not is still basically "hacking" program code so...
The smallest changes, like, 1 digit in 1 out of 100,000 lines of
code can cause problems way out of proportion to ths effect that
you want. Each game is diffrent as well so you have to generally
start from scratch every time. Then mixing mods, even with a
decent "mod manager" is a chuffing minefield...
I think thats why modders are more tolerant of ingame bugs. We
know how hard it can be to get code to run correctly and you
NEVER get ALL the bugs first time.

@baddoggs Yeah, I'm not sure why the "Warp Speed" mod would be having any real impact on my mod though. It should just accelerate time scale.

There's allways something.... Right?

@everyone Just beware I have had reports that using the "Warp Speed" mod with my age mods is causing some strange ageing issues. Not sure why or how, but I am working on getting to the bottom of it.

Sweet, my sad life is now complete

My V/R life i mean... Ha ha

@Urban Urdnot New version is uploaded with these values doubled again. Check description for link.

@Uncle Urdnot sure, will get started.

@baddoggs Someone i know is already working on that.

Here's an idea!, how about a "market" where you could sell your exess
poly's, 'tronics, machine parts. Even water or O2

This is an awesome mod. Any chance for a mod that doubles these life spans? Such a mod would make the start gane easier, but the mid to late game much harder.

That would be fun. we are after all, on Mars. Maybe there is some
combo of environmental conditions that slow the ageing process..
If you want an explanation/story line for immersion.
I am an avid modder myself, sadly it is nuts at work right now so
i barely have time to play.

Also, if you guys want a version with even higher ages, so they live even longer, let me know.

@baddoggs No worries, Trying to do what I can with what we have right now. If you encounter any issues. Please, let me know.

Thank you for your work and for sharing.

its days not years :)

i wouldn't want to work above 80 :-) but nice one. start tomorrow a new map.
