Title: Mechanoid Raids Only
Post by: Edixo on May 02, 2017, 07:24:58 PM
I think my last 5 raids have been mechanoids only. Do you reach a point where that's the only raids you get? Or have I just been hitting a strange roll streak?

How cold is it at your location? My understanding is that you will ony get raiders who can survive your local weather, so in extreme climates, mechanoids are all that can come over to play.

It 'can' be nothing more than the luck of the draw but if you are building a base in an area with an extreme of temperatures they become more likely, because if it's is too hot/cold outside for a human raid to be spawned, I believe a mechanoid one will spawn instead.

I'm on arid shrubland. So temperature is not the issue.

Have you managed to turn all previously hostile factions friendly (by releasing their raiders after getting medicated)?

That shouldn't be possible, given that pirate factions are ungrateful (literally).

Turns out it was just the will of the Dice Gods. After 6 mechanoid raids in a row, I got some standard raiders.
