i'm over here alone leaning against the wall while everyone here is on the dancefloor dancing with their complaints about events they don't like but they don't know about Incident Tweaker

No

Is this compatible with thirst? all my insects die from thirst

Nope

Something about this mod causes the UI to dissapear anytime theres someof the things on the map.

Just found this mod, it seems very interesting! I will need to try it out at some point!

the mod needs to calm down. im playing naked brutality on adventure difficulty. first to third wave is a simple megathrip. fourth is one megascarab and 2 swarmlings..pretty chill..fifth is 3 swarmlings and a spedelopede..sounds like a fun difficulty curve till i saw that the fifth wave also includes..a Empress..how?

You can disable any event from ever happening when you set up your scenario (apart from some badly coded mod ones but shouldnt be an issue here). I cant look at it right now but it should be something akin to disable event or disable quest and then VFE_infectedchunk or infected crash or whatever. Disabling it mid save may be a little trickier. MAYBE using the Cherrypicker mod you can edit it, since that allows some more settings, but i havent checked.

I have to agree with Gragyriss here, I am getting nothing but infested chunks every other event now covering the land, the event chance is way too high and they are obnoxious to deal with as you can't deconstruct them, you have to shoot them. This is so badly designed and implemented. I can't even remove it as I am hours into this game. There is no option to even disable them in the mod options as far as I know too. It's just bad.

Remove infected chunk crash or im making you watch me harvest your family! Its:
Annoying when it happens, like WHY, WHY DOES IT ALWAYS HIT MY DUCKING FARMLAND AND WIND TURBINES!?
Annoying to fight, its always like 300 bugs, scattered across the entire map
Immersion breaking, ALL THE CHUNKS LOOK THE SAME!, WHY DO THEY ALL EMERGE AT THE SAME TIME!?, HOW DID THEY SURVIVE THE CRASH!?
And as the cherry on top, THERES LITTLE TO NO REWARD FOR PUTTING UP WITH THIS ANNOYING SHET!!!
Like seriously, I love this mod, and all the other stuff you guys do, but ♥♥♥♥ this event in particular. Its making me want to remove the mod. Please please PLEASE either remove it, rework it, or give us a way to disable it. it sucks SO BAD.

Am I the only one having trouble fighting hives? First, I can't destroy an existing hive. I also can't destroy a hive that was created as a result of a failed mission, nor can I destroy a developing hive. I've cleared the entire hive map, cleared every infected cell, but it doesn't help. I tried playing a new save and immediately dealing with developing hives, and the same thing happened. I'd come back, completely destroy all the bugs and all their buildings, and the mission would fail, leaving a hive. I thought it was a build issue or a mod conflict. I started testing with developer mode, but nothing worked. I also tested in vanilla, and the same problem persisted.

would need to make a clean game to verify its not a mod conflict but atm the ironclad insects on losing their armour they also lose the pigment set on them via player hive.

anyway to be able to draft insects more easy? Its anoyying to have to find them across the map to draft them during a riad

I did actually figure out how to forbid the jelly from the colonist foodstuffs, thanks. I did not think to leave some corpses for the insects, will have to get a fridge mod. But I'm interested in that jelly sack thing because how do I do that that sounds awesome! I did have an insector but I only had him because he could just walk into infested areas and pick up the jelly, which was really the only way I even got the jelly to build the hive in the first place. Thanks

@Questforben If you find that your bugs and colonists eat the jelly too much, try making a corpse stockpile in the insects' allowed area so they eat those. bonus points if you have a fridge mod or something else cold accessible so the corpses dont rot. for your colonists, you should be able to remove eating insect jelly by going into their assigned food policy and editing it. you can uncheck insect jelly so anyone with that food policy will not eat jelly. Lastly, it may behoove you to try and get an insector (i think its those guys?) and have them adapt into having jelly sacks so your colonists can produce jelly too. potentially you can extract that gene and put it on prisoners, if youre into that.

I'd like to make an addendum to my last comment. I have noticed that it spawns the glow pods which can be deconstructed for 10-15 jelly each. Meaning that it takes significantly less time and micromanaging to actually develop a hive. Would still be nice if the jelly spawned as forbidden and more frequently/numerously, however the glow pods thing is fine, I suppose

The basic hives make a quite frankly uselessly small amount of jelly. I was hoping I could start as an insectoid dude and have him farm the hives and stuff, and after spending like 40 in game days struggling to get enough of the jelly, I get 2 a day (maybe even less because I rarely even see it drop) and the bugs eat that jelly. I'm going to try and leave some extra food for them so that they don't eat the jelly and I can nab it, but even then my colonists will usually eat it before I even know it's dropped. It would be nice if it dropped as automatically off limits, or maybe if it dropped more because frankly seeking out a hive infested area and going in to nab the jelly is so difficult that by the time you can make a hive and jelly farm with it, the hive is functionally useless.

is it theoreticly possible to build the hive in space with save our ship 2 mod?

wait did you get rid of the insect spike traps?

whats the difference between hive and burrow walls? they both have the same amount of hp but burrow walls take longer to build

I have insectoids counted as ideological units, and now I have a faction of orbital traders instead of transhumanists.

@Mega and Dark fox: The answer is the same as always: discover which mod is breaking things, report to us. We will add it as incompatible.

Sometimes the event "Members of the hive leave" occurs and all the beetles go into the "pets" category, which is why they cannot be controlled directly, how can I fix this??

do you ever plan to make certain insects use odyssey's flight mechanic?

I'm also having the same issue of insectoids being de-assigned from their hives. If anyone manages to find a fix, we'd be eager to hear it.

Water need is modded

Apparently the issue isn't only with real ruins. My insectoids are also losing the connection with hives after sometime and I can't figure out which mod is causing the problem(I don't use real ruins). (Side not my hives are also spawning random insectoids alongside the designated ones. Anyone else having this issue?

@kurkow2912 have you found a way to fix this?

Oh, I have the same problem as the person in the previous comment. And yes, Real Ruins is to blame for this. Do you happen to know if there is any way to fix this?

THX a lot Sarg for response and all this great mods you and guys make! 100% awesomeness!

Real Ruins

Plz help, people! "Hive insects are leaveing" message suddenly for no purpose. After it insects become part of my animal tab and refuse maintain hives. I am desperate to find what is wrong, saw some similiar questions like this but no one had an answer.

Love the mod, I have a suggestion that might help with performance on hive only play though. Can you have it where creep can eat rotten corpses so that they don't just sit there waiting for your main colonist to either bury or burn them.

only now noticed that creep doesnt seem to be able to generate on gravship floors, wanted to make a flying hive but i guess not
idk if its intended or not

Hey, is there a way to remove the slow from creep for the black empress? She is the only one that is slowed by it. Ive looked in the files but couldn't find the black empress anywhere.

希望能支持虫子在殖民地以外的地图活动，只能待在殖民地被动防守而无法主动进攻实在是太鸡肋了
it would be great if we could support the insectoids to move outside their nest map. Currently, they can only passively defend and cannot go out to attack, which is really quite useless.

@Rocky it says right up there in the description that no, they cannot be in a caravan. Leaving the map separates them from the hive. It's explained in the image at the head of "Player-built hives."

Do biotech expanded insect xenotypes count as insectoid for the purposes of creep walk speed?

also locusts take 24 days to grow up

it would be cool if creep ate corpses and gave insect jelly for doing so

Anyone know if the insects can be in a caravan?

Hello there, I was wondering: How do I get rid of burned creep? There was an... accident and now my creepers won't spread over the burned creep but I also can't build on it

Only "Bomb"

Could you please elaborate what counts as an explosive for destroying insect burrows?
Apparently, antigrain with its 'BombSuper' damage type does not count, so does the Diablous' cannon with 'Vaporize' damage type.

Kanquat as far as I know when insectoids leave the place or some ♥♥♥♥ they stop being a part of the hive and turn into normal ♥♥♥♥♥♥ insectoids which is kinda dumb

Would you be willing to consider making this more compatible with Oddessy? It looks like right now the creep doesn't work with gravship substructure - and even when there's creep over the substructure buildings can't be built on it.

I am unable to Draft insects after transporting them via Shuttle. Is this intentional? Thank you.

Their market value is 1000

are pherocores supposed to sell for 32k
