I've lost the original file to this mod, so RIP those errors, really lol

My dyslexia is at it again!

I've found a minor issue. "New master regestered. Desegnation required." has two misspellings. The word 'regestered' should be 'registered' and the word 'Desegnation' should be 'Designation.'

can you make it work on Ashtron?

old machines is the faction it belongs to i think. my game is heavily modded so maybe who ever added them didnt add some kind of thing to them so game recognizes as skeletons.

I searched FCS and could not find this old machine you speak of. It would be awesome if I could just tell the game "use it on all skeletons." but that is not the case. I have go to in case by case to add the dialogue options to the specific character =/

does this work on "old machines"...if not could you add it please, ty.

Yeah I'm not sure why that was taken off, but it has been fixed.

for some reason this mod removes skeleton repair kits from the robotics bench.

Look for the initial plans in ancient labs throughout the world.

Is there a location where the blueprints spawn?

It should be at the robotics bench.

I may be pretty dumb but how do I actually make the rods? which crafting bench do I need?

I have to disable this mod to interact with the Broken ones of the Deadlands, so they become my bodyguards (I'm using the Forgotten Ones mod too). As they turn in to my bodyguards and I enlist them to my squad, them I can turn this mod on again.
Too bad I have to lose my Liberator ultimate rod in the process : (

@lucidmadness, i dont have Recruitable prisoners, the only mod i have that interacts with AI and people is Paradise Falls, Slavers Edition, might that be the issue?

if that was directed at me, i'll give that a try, dont think i have that one though.

Not sure what to say, but it seems Recruitable Prisoners is the culprit. Try unloading either mod and trying that way.

i have an ultimate control rod and i cant talk to them at all

Skin bandits need advanced control rods or better. Other than that it would be an entire section of the mod that does not work.

Skin Bandits look like they arent programmable

Ah ok amazing mod tho.

If it's not a character with a dialogue package option I can't add them :)

I cant talk to skeletons from the hook raiders so i think it doesnt work with them.

Heh, no worries. Thanks for the speedy fix!

Done! And I added 5000 cats as well to save some of the initial grind

oh ♥♥♥♥! lol i'm new to making starts ill fix that asap

Just tried The Liberator start. The starting build menu is completely empty. Can't build a research bench or small house.

TBH one of those names you mentioned is from the $50 donation I gave :D

I expected them to be randomly generated NPCs... thanks for looking into it.

Unfortunately I can't find any of those npcs in the character list in the FCS. If there isnt a 100% chance of them being a skeleton I would most likely have skipped over them as well. I wish I could just make all races have the dialogue packages, but right now I have to go into each unique character and add it.

EDIT for the last comment : there is no "talk to" option when those guys are in a cage.
More Spring skeletons :
Benjie
Alec
Ice
(Pin: killed this guy too fast so couldn't check)
a last one before I can duel Tinfist : Thoke, I suppose it will be the same (if not, I will comment on it...)

Hello again :)
It works for the Elder, thanks.
Currently cleaning Spring to add Tinfist to my collection and there are some skeleton NPC/bodyguards I can't turn :
Soto
Slowline
Fish
Takao
(some others I did not capture yet)

I do not know if they are pre-named NPC or if the names/races would change in each game.

done!

Checked, it works for both :)
Thanks
... and found another one :p
The Elder (skeleton bandits leader)

Should be working correctly now.

I will look for them and add now. Thanks for letting me know

Hello
Great mod thanks for doing and sharing it ! :)
I found 2 bots I couldn't turn (with the ultimate rod)
- Ponk (a thrall master, no "talk to" option available)
- sniperbot (can talk but just 1 dialogue option with ...)

Hope you can fix this and keep up the good work !

Should be fixed now.

So I'm pretty sure it got pretty buggy, but I'm simply adding them back to robotics because the FCS is telling me the robotic repair kids are not supposed to be crafted there regardless of what mod I'm looking at.

Using this mod seems to have removed my ability to craft skeleton repair kits :/

Haven't gotten around to finding the research, but figure that shouldn't have anything to do with it?

I based the rod requirements based on their given skill level, + or - randomness. (in the description). Not just the ultimate rod works on lower levels. i think it used to be posted but when i reuploaded it put up the old version

So, the high-grade rods are for higher-level skeletons, and Ultimate will work on any?

How do I tell their level?

Find the blueprints for the rod research, then research each tier. Once you have the research done, make the rod and put the skeleton npc you wish to recruit into a prisoner cage. Have the rod in your inventory, then initiate dialogue (in prison you have to right click and manually talk). If you have the higher version of a rod you no longer need the lesser versions.

Hello there, i would like to ask exactly: how does this work? thx

Thank you! this is a very usefull mod

Added it. you should be able to recruit them now with any rod

the skeletons are called Weak Thralls and their faction name is thrall masters i think

Do you know the name? I can't find anything in the dust.

can i recruit those weak thralls that are running around the eye?
