Ayy, excellent!

fixed.

Yee, no worries, at least now you know :B

I'll try to get to that today if I can. It's an easy fix, but today happens to be unfourtunately busy.

Woops! Not sure how I never noticed that. Thanx.

Got this error:
Textures were not found for one or more extended graphics for ASpacebold Addons: Things/Spacebolds/Spikes/Spikes

It's because the image for the south one has a dash instead of underscore.

I'm just so darn glad it's done. My brain was fried by the time I was done with my computer yesterday. There's still work to do, but nothing critical.

You were right, 1.6 has been announced recently. I dreaded this day :D
also yoU DID WHAAAAT?????
Thank you so very much, man!

I did Redwall

I'll be getting the redwall mod done eventually. I'm just not looking forward to it, lols. Updating the races has be complicated and time consuming, so the mods that have a whole bunch of races are going to be very labor-intense to update.

Though I heard 1.6 is on its way and now I feel like all of this has been for nothing. Since everything is gonna break again right as I'm finally making progress.

Aw, shucks. Those rat boyos looked good and i liked the books. Oh well, was good while it lasted, will be remembered.
Thanks again for your continuous support, man! Funky space gnoblins at it again and they want your kidneys.

Good progress has been made towards getting everything on 1.5 so far. Though I gotta admit, I'm not looking forward to updating Redwall. Lols.

Oh, got it!
Titanic job, man. Thank you for your patience!

I haven't done a biotech update and don't know if i will or not. I don't know if they would run with biotech on or not, since I have yet to play with it.

Just trying to get everything updated is daunting, let alone dealing with xenotypes and genes and babies.

YYYEEEAAAAAHHH

...wha...wait, what does it mean by "Not compatible with Biotech."?
Do i need to turn Biotech off to play this mod or is it just not supported by Biotech?

If the bionic/aerotech eyes do happen to pop up, I found this mod which should remove the bionic eye overlay.

Updated to 1.5, but...

Known Issues:
When using prepare carefully, the tail does not change color with the skin on character creation. But once my saves were created, returning to main menu and reloading made the tail the same color as the skin again. Not something that I think I can fix, but it doesn't really break stuff so I'm not concerned.
Wound graphics. Vanilla has wound graphics, which are obviously made for normal human pawns. I was unable to figure out how to change them or relocate them so they don't cause bloody wounds to just float off of a kobold's face. So the best solution I could manage was to find a way to disable them entirely on these kobolds. It's not ideal, but I at least would prefer no wound visuals at all than have a "missing eye" wound just floating at the end of their snout. Bionic eyes and such still show up however and are NOT in the right place. I can not figure out how to fix this problem.

I am feeling a bit foolish, since like an hour after I made this comment, someone reached out on my tab of the HAR discord to help me. I still haven't gotten the race I'm starting with completely fixed. But progress has been made.

Yeah, that's common for many HAR races in 1.5. Thanks for being clear, i hope we'll see these beautiful bastards in Biotech version one day.

just in case anyone is wondering about 1.5 updates still, I don't think it's ever gonna happen. I have sorted out every red start-up error aside from one. But this one is a doozy that I just can't figure out. It keeps the races from rendering in any way. They still spawn, but they are invisible. I've been comparing the code to other mods that are updated to 1.5, but I just can't seem to find what my mistake is.

For now, the space helmet has been removed since it was for people using SOS, and that wasn't updated yet when I fixed these guys. At some point I'm gonna sit down and figure out how the make the helmet a patch that checks for SOS or something.

YES! They're in 1.4!!! Thank you!!

A reminder that I have a Discord. And that I am working on updating all my race mods, I just haven't had a lot of free time to do so recently.

https://discord.gg/ncprGdtFWB

Really unique race. Thanks for sharing your plans and having 1.4 update in mind!

I do have a tab in the Humanoid Alien Races discord for my race mods. As well as my own discord page. I post info there about WIP and whatnot. But again, I haven't had time for updating to 1.4 yet. The weekend is far too short.

I do intend to update. But I haven't had time to take a second crack at it(the first attempt a couple weeks ago was unsuccessful).

1.4?

Glad I could help and thank you for the due diligence!

I am currently looking at my code and found the mistake. I missed an instance of "pirate" where i needed to make it "SpaceboldPirate". I am going to double-check my other races for similar mistakes and then update. Thank you dvh.

I'm sorry AA I don't know the answer here. I was just relaying what that troubleshooting folks were saying on the Rimworld discord.

Though, if I understand what I read, I don't understand why that is a problem. If I understand correctly, the issue comes from not renaming something, so when something else tries to pull from a parent def it will find 2 defs with the same name. But my faction defs shouldn't have the vanilla name, since I put the race name in front of it. Like "spaceboldpirates" or something like that. So nothing that pulls from the vanilla pirates should be pulling from the spacebolds instead.

I don't know any other way to do things. I'm still pretty new to coding.

I'm guessing that "overwriting" means doing the same thing that every mod I have ever used as an example to work off of has done. Copy paste something from vanilla, then change names and values until it does what you want but doesn't bring uo a wall of red text on game-start anymore.

Maybe this will help?

Totally understandable. I'll send your responses along to the troubleshooters also and maybe they will have ideas. Thank you!

After having read about it a bit, I do not understand why this would be an issue with the Spacebolds and not the other races I made. They are all made the same way. So if you have an issue with one, theoretically you should have an issue with all of them.

When I have time I will try and go digging through the code and see if I can figure it out. But I likely won't have time to attempt it for at least a few days. Mabey not till the weekend.

As far as I can see from that, based on the wording, it looks like an incompatibility with All Your Base. Since the only other issue on there has to do with their space helmets, which I doubt would mess with terrain spawn.

I don't know why All Your Base has an issue with the Spacebolds specifically, since their faction is just an existing vanilla faction(pirates) with a race change, just like the majority of other race mods I have played.

Hi AA! The troubleshooters in the Rimworld discord believe this mod might be the source of some terrain generation and other issues I'm having. Here's my logs: https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/de88d7f79370e02f04e5264c85b7e205 . Thank you!

awesome !

oh do i have news for you my friend. I am working on a Redwall mod(like the YA books). looking at 26 animal races. There will be a light version and a full version. Lite version will be only races and they will have human stats, really just there for aesthetic purposes. The full version will have different stats and draw sizes, as well as items and factions.

awesome mod ,love fighting the little guys ,outta curiosity any other races planned?

I hope you do. More kobolds are welcome.

Aw man, I was going to make a kobold race for space too, but the scale kind this looks awesome tho, cant wait to try it out!

Thank you! Did the art for these guys a while ago, but life has been too busy to get to the coding. I'm really glad you enjoy my races.

These guys are not friendly though. So watch out. They are pirates afterall.

woo another race from AA, kudos, thanks for the hard work

I hope they come out alright, friend.

Awesome, thank you!
