I would also like to see this in 1.6

Any chance on this being updated for 1.6 and any new mechanoids?

For how hard they are to kill, it really is kinda dumb how bad they got nerfed... Thanks for updating and being the change for us! <3

It affects the drop rates only for VFE Mechanoids

Is there a difference between VFE and VFE-M, or are they the same thing? I haven't played in a while. If they're different mods, then no.

@beelao Does this affect the drop rate of VFE-M's mechanoid components?

Seconding that Thank you! Two years since my last.

Thank you!

It should be compatible with 1.5 already, but I'll update the mod anyway.

will this be updated to 1.5?

It should be compatible, I haven't bought the DLC yet, but from what I saw all the mechs are just variants of existing mechs.

Is there compatibility with the new mechs added in Biotech?

Thank you!

Updated to 1.4

Please update to 1.4

@Latex Santa Pikeman drops are the same as Lancer/Scyther, just forgot to update the mod description.

@cum Did you forget to add the Pikeman entry? Anyway, thanks a lot for the mod.

Hey, is this compatible with the new drops that What the Hack adds?

@Anon Yes, the values are the same as before. I copied them directly from the 1.2 version.

Are the values for the base game mechs the same as before the tug-of-war style "balancing" they did with 1.2?

Fantastic, much appreciated.

@Deadcurze I've added compatibility patches for VFE Mechanoids. Keep in mind that the patch only affects mechanoids. The values for buildings/turrets were not changed.

Lovely mod, much appreciated.

A patch for Vanilla Expanded's mechanoids would make it even better, but I fully understand if that's not something you want to prioritize.

@Danerol Lord, @Fox_Follower after the nerf, shredding mechanoids no longer yields any components. The amount of plasteel and steel was drastically decreased too.

@cum Thanks very much :)

- Revert Tynan's stupid nerf to mechanoid resources drop (don't buy his book) -
What nerf?

Wait, what this mod does. Does it add resources after parsing the mechanoid, or does it decrease?

@HonerabruSushi I've added a patch to fix the new mechanoid. The drop rate should be exactly the same as the Centipede.

If I'm not mistaken the termite mechanoid drops less than would be expected with this mod installed since it was recently added. Would you make the termite drop similar loot as the others in a quick update, or release another version as more of a total adjustment to drops (including the termite)?

Apparently mechanoids from Vanilla Factions Expanded inherit from a custom mechanoid "race", so it'll require custom patches. I'll see what I can do.

Ah! One can never know these days.

Btw, how does your mod affect additional Mechanoids like the ones from Vanilla Expanded?

@cy-one That's the point, it's just banter. Don't take it seriously.

While I appreciate the mod,
the bitterness is just kinda hilarious.

Nerfing the resource drop is just extreme stupidity
You can get 1500+ steel/700+ Plasteel/200+ Components/ 70+ Advanced Compnents, From fucking trading Alcohol from a mass production facility.

I liked the book

@Dr.Granat From the patch notes:
>Reduce resource yield from destroying/disassembing mechs and their buildings

Wait, what did they nerf?

"(don't buy his book)", yes this post right here Randy.

Your save files are now fucked

thank you

"don't buy his book" -- Bitter, much?
