• This will be a series of themed mods inspired by H.P. Lovecraft's works (and other famous horror works). we aim to expand the RimWorld experience by implementing spine-tingling cosmic horrors, themed objects and apparel from the late 18th until early 20th century, sacrificial cult gameplay, and horrific events. Until the expansion is sufficiently large enough, the mods will be separate.

Awesome.

What exactly does H.P. do to your colony so far ?

And I would prefer if you keep your mods splitted, it would be easier to maintain, also I am very peckish on what I like in my mods and what not and splitted mods clarify features more than you think.

Quote from: kaptain_kavern on September 14, 2016, 03:18:54 PM
Good luck on your project. I'm looking forward to see it growing.

Have you seen the Pastafarianism mod (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=22672). You could/may use it to implement old divinity to pray for or something similar.

Just food for you creative brain  ;)

Quote from: jecrell on September 14, 2016, 09:44:44 PM

H.P. currently has no special 'code' beyond doubling the frequency of big threats to your colony, sadly. I would love to provide some forced 'lingering fear' or 'ominous atmosphere' moodlets.
Also, easily done. I can have the mods split and provide a compilation as well.

Two ways this could work : you base it on the "psychic drone" incident and have all pawns effected
or you base it on the psychic ship and have a building somewhere on the map that effects the pawns
There is also the possibility of map induced effects, but I don't know enough about them to properly describe them . Maybe you find a solution in the pastafari mod :)

For meals with added effects you'll have to mix in some recipe and hediff defs/values. You can look in Dismar's VegGarden mod for example/code of recipes that have health/stats impacts.

The entire reason why I programmed it that way -- took me 4 days to figure things out -- was to not have notifications. It is a surprise with a slight hint. The game is also AWFUL about notifications. If I let it have a notification, it will immediately let you click it and go to exactly where the monsters are at with a big fat arrow of doom. It's also probably another full day of programming to get that setup correctly and debugged, which I'd rather spend developing other things. Terribly sorry. @__@

Gotta say, I have been loving this mod so far. Thank you for all the work you've been doing on it.

Nothing like having a poison ship crash by your colony while being raided by 15+ tribals and then - while Mechanoids and the aforementioned Tribals are fighting, having a swarm of Mi-Go come flying in to break up the party.

I also learned right-quick the dangers of absentmindedly letting your animal handlers train timber wolves with "Strange Meat".

Quote from: Kirid on October 03, 2016, 08:35:10 PM
Hoppers do not accept your meat.
The hoppers for my nutrient paste dispenser are currently set to accept shoggoth meat (and any other strange or normal meats), and I have stacks of filleted shoggoth in my freeezer, yet noone fills the hoppers with it; when manually instructing a colonist to haul it, the only option is to consume.
Can you fix this in any way?

Quote from: Flying Rockbass on October 06, 2016, 10:19:39 AM
I didn't read the full topic, don't know if this has been suggested yet. But you should remove Cthulhu as a monster and anounce his arrival as a End Game condition. Once he arrives it's game over.

It's better to let him on our minds, remembering that fear is the only thing that shows we are alive.

Quote from: res34 on October 08, 2016, 01:09:08 AM
So I noticed that you can tame the Dark Spawn... what exactly happens if you do, given that looking at it gives colonists a debuff?

Quote from: TOWC on October 08, 2016, 10:27:18 AM
I really love your mods, but I've being raided by monsters non-stop. 3 raids per day(4 creatures in average), and I have only one non-bionic colonist to deflect all those attacks. Is it normal?

Quote from: Flying Rockbass on October 10, 2016, 10:51:45 AM
I would really like to have some artistic ability to re-skin the walls, floors, furniture and etc to be more fitting with the other itens you added in the game (like the friedge and gas lamps)

This could easily turn into a total revamp of the game. I added the "Darkness" mod, and it is totally fitting. Since you can barely see what's on the map

(Or do you prefer the full file?)

I've restarted the game multiple times and I get the same result. I do use a crap-ton of mods though, might be related.
Hope that helps. I love the mod BTW.

Edit:
I restructured my load order, placing the Industrial Age mod before 90% of anything else that add lights (since only the light weren't working) and it works great now.

Quote from: Canute on October 14, 2016, 03:44:44 AM
About revolver, at first i though oh just another pistol class weapon, now i think damn a sucide weapon.
The problem are, the weapon fires a burst, and the pawn don't move until the burst are complete, and the burst on a revolver takes very long.
They even shoot when the target is allready dead.

I suggest to reflect a real revolver a much faster burst, half that fast like a assault rifle, but a much longer cooldown for the reload phase.

Quote from: Canute on October 15, 2016, 02:27:47 AM
Yes you can eat the meal, you need to made Strange meal out of them.
If you eat one you are geting sanity lost debuff, it is basicly the same like toxic effect.
The sanity lost effect give nice bonus for crafting, but improve the pain. So long you don't let them eat to much they will work harder.

Quote from: Canute on October 15, 2016, 09:11:23 AM
Yep, i notice too.
Many bad things happen at a short time, then you got a long time to recover and build nessesary things.
Hint, try to get someone who can move fast. This allow you to kite most of the monster around your people with guns.
But beware when someone start to laughing (just text), you will see :-)

Quote from: KTVSUN on October 15, 2016, 05:43:38 AM
It s been a few hours now. The start was intense, raids in rapid succession, like one ends and another starts, toxic fallout, flu etc.

But now it s been a looooong time without anything. Is it normal? I may have misunderstood, i thought this storyteller was intense in terms of events.

Not a critic, id just like to know.

Edit. i m on day 70 my last raid was on day 53 and before that 26. I lost one guy and refused 2 which were bad and still only have 5. Not much is happening. Not even a single trade ship. I get caravans though. And these wandering monsters, the one who behave like mobs.

Edit 2. Day 90. Screenshot of the history here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10144/boring.jpg (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10144/boring.jpg)

I checked the xml for the storyteller and it looks good. My guess is one of my mod messes with the stroyteller. Maybe hospitality, i have gotten tons of visitors.


Thanks!

Hello and thank you for a great mod, being a fan of lovecraft i cant tell you how nicely surprised i was to see such an addition to my favorite game.

I started a new colony with your mod for the first time. I play on extreme permadeath and thus am not willing to do wierd experiments for nothing. I read that some meats have negative effects.

So my question is can i eat some of the meats or discard them all?

(for some reason your storyteller insists on dropping tons of meat on me through cargos.)

edit: oooh boy the creatures are considered animals and pass through the traps without activating them unless they are actively hunting a pawn. Just lost my grower to this. Building a wall now, will see if they try to go through it. I m suffering but i love it. it s refreshing =p

Thank you!

Quote from: Canute on October 14, 2016, 08:05:04 AM
I don't need another weapon mod, the game got allready enough weapons IMO.
I just wanted the faction and the weapons are just a bonus. I used the revolver for my bad equiped tribes and wanted to give the feedback.

The problem is I want good one, since I kinda a weapon hoarder and great bow kinda meh for me and it took long time for machining.
But main problem is the monster event happen too much compare to other.
By 10 points it like this: 5/10 monster 2/10 robot related event 1/10 animal related event and only 2/10 raid.

So one of my saves from the 16th no longer works. Of the mods that I have that have updated since then is the this Neutral Factions mod, Vegetable Garden, Cyclone Wire, [sd] Space Ship and RIMkea. I specifically get an error saying something about a missing "Race_Giant_Skin". Since this mod has textiles I thought maybe it could be the mod messing up my save. Note RIMkea might also be it. The other 3 I am doubting since they don't seem to deal with skins. Anyone else have this problem? Or know if this mod is the mod that removed Giant Skin?

But i have something else to report which i assume is mostlikely your mod itself, because it happens consistently and only with this type of monster: Star Vampires only spawn solo, which could be intended, but the game tries to spawn more and fails, spitting out a debug error. They also apparently still retain their aggressive AI when incapacitated, the debugger throwing another error and i noticed them still "watching for targets" while incapped.

Holy mother.  That squiggly tentacle red vampire creature is freaking horrible.  First time, the thing spawned outside my base and went like 90mph towards my guys.  Took down one of my guys no problem and they were armed to the teeth.  Another one spawned INSIDE my base. I had to go hand to hand because it spawned in my walk-in freezer.  Talk about close quarter combat. 

That meat after you butcher it.  The description says if you eat it your colonists eyes will bleed and they will start hallucinating.  Can you just use the meat to make simple or level 2 meals?

If it's the Dark Young, that's fine in my opinion. In the cult pack, we're planning on creating a trans-dimensional gateway in the form of a tree portal that spawns dark young for the player to control.

Currently, the Cosmic Horrors don't check for if you're the same faction if I recall, so they'll still be causing insanity effects.

Damn this looks awesome, real great work with the art and the new features look intriguing! I gotta ask though, will the mod be save compatible? Was planning to start a tribal playthrough and slowly convert my pawns once the mod came out, but I'll wait with it then if a new game is needed.  :D

I'm not entirely sure if the Cults thing is causing this, but I can't seem to interact with the cultist that joined my colony in certain ways, i.e. any right click options (such as arrest, no context menu appears), or treating them when injured. I don't remember if they could do it before I got her a psionic brain though. Attempting to interact with her gives a "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" (below is snipped from the output log) error in the ingame debug log. She's also the preacher of the cult.

Alright, thanks for the response. Just found it odd because it works for all of my other colonists, just not the cultist that joined when she heard of my cult.

had a good laugh after my cult was founded the first day a cultist joined only to get beaten up in his sleep by my other colonists thast dont like the cult.

only 1 Problem i encountered now. 1 of my starting pawns is against the cult and i dont want to lose him and the Problem is he CANNOT do Research, so how can i raise her cult meter up?
for all other colonists it has worked. only 1 is missing for the cult :d

literally that, every zone made of rock or mineral become an "unexplored area" and become incorporeal and it remains like that even if i walk over it with a pawn.

Hey Mate!
I tried out using only the Industrial Items with the new A16, since they are really great even on their own, with no Cthulhu stuff (thats for the second play-through :)

However, as I run the game I get an error "Failed to find Verse.PawnKindDef named DarkYoung" and that there are 79 references to that...

Is that a serious issue, which may cause problems down the line?

EDIT: Also, could you maybe make it possible to uninstall/reinstall the Gas Lamp (the free-standing one)?

Anyone can add Chaos.

In your Cults directory.
Go to -> Defs\ThingDefs_CosmicEntities.xml

Copy and paste one of the deities, rename the label and choose what spells you like.

You can do this for any deity you want.

Hey I need help.
For some reason I can't get cults to work. I researched everything, but nothing is happening. When I try to make an event through dev menu, it just writes error. Something with Cthullu tree. Not sure if I should send whole error here or somewhere else.

Quote from: Draxis on December 30, 2016, 09:52:58 PM
I get that and that makes it somewhat worth it, but a power generator usually costs a few and a battery is another two. You could run a dozen standing lamps off a solar panel normally. Also, you still need power generator to run your fridges which make it a bit of a moot point.

My main point is that there doesn't seem to be a reason to use it if we already need a ton of power. Maybe increase the size of the fridges to 75 and allow food? My vision is to combine this with the coal mod, BlackFuel and a quarry mod so that you're burning coal for power and outside lights are either the gas lamps or the braziers from the medieval mod. Just some food for thought and a few suggestions from me. Great work and I'm excited to see how this develops!

I'm sorry friend. You'll have to explain clearly for me.
What exactly is not working? You said "I can't get cults to work" and yet you said "I researched everything", so clearly something is working.

Will the Cults Mod work without the Monster Mod?

Also how's this compare to the Ancestral Spirits mod (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=27186.0)? I am looking for a mod where I can have my pawns worship and do human sacrifice. However I am not really a fan of the Lovecraft monsters. I am looking towards more of an Aztec-like human sacrifice or some Tiki tribal stuff. Can cults be used in this way or should I look into the Ancestral Worship mod?

Is there any advice on how to deal with the star vampires? My turrets and colonists lock on when they are invisible and fire, but it doesn't take any damage.

So far whenever it shows up, I resort to just going into debug and destroying the thing. Since it can kill a power armored colonist before they can even move away from it. I want to have a chance at fighting it, without it resulting in me automatically losing a colonist.

I don't mind if they die in fights, but it just feels like the vampire is an instant colonist loss whenever it shows up, not like there is a chance to win against it. Unless i'm missing some tactic.

I've found that it becomes visible if you're within two tiles of it, meaning if you're behind a wall and door, you can decloak it from the other side of the door it's attacking and then get ready to kill it. If a pawn is way out in the open though, not much you can do.

Hey jecrell,
about the cult spells.
Stary wisdom (from Nya...) work on the executioner, but most other spells picks a random pawn. Would be nice if the other spells would work on the executioners too, maybe a 10% chance that the god is funny and granted the gift to someone all all other.

Chuthula tentacle on legs with manipulation boni, i see a pawn lying on his back and craft with 4 tentacle :-) Maybe reduce the manipulation boni by 5% and give 5% movement ?
To bad we can't reimplant these tentacle, didn't work at last with EPOE installed.

How does the Psionic attack from the brain work. I don't notice any different with or without weapon.

Quote from: WinterFlare on February 14, 2017, 06:30:18 PM
I just wanted to give my feedback on what I've experienced with the Cosmic Horror events and raids so far, ranking from the least dangerous to the most dangerous.

QuoteStar-Spawn of Cthulhu, N/A: I've only been attacked by these once, so I honestly can't say much about them. Only two spawned, and 2 improvised turrets and a few colonists beat them.

QuoteChthonian, fairly slow moving, only spawns alone in the pit, and doesn't attack/become maddened if it's out of range. Can be easily taken out with concentrated fire from 2-3 individuals. I've even killed them with 2-3 great bows, while 1-2 people have tanked the damage. I'm very much more afraid of mechanoid ships.

QuoteStar Vampires, I've only seen spawn one at a time. The amount of time it gives me to prepare allows me to pull most of my colonists into a single group and take it out in 1-2 concentrated fire bursts.

QuoteDark Young: These seem to come in two forms, a "Strange Creature" event, and a "Manhunter Pack" event. In the Strange Creature event, I've only seen a single one spawn, and if taken care of immediately poses no threat at all. It only becomes a threat if you leave it alone and get caught off guard. The manhunter pack is fairly dangerous if you try to take it head-on, but they'll starve to death in a few days if you leave them alone, assuming your colonists don't have mental breaks and accidentally kill themselves (and possibly others, if you have low health doors.)
I would honestly prefer if they spawned in a pack of 2-3 during the "Strange Creature" event, and if attacked it would enrage all nearby Dark Youngs. In this way, you would have to wait for them to separate before taking care of them, which could lead you to forget about it making them much more dangerous.

QuoteShoggoths move slowly and are very vulnerable to concentrated fire. They seem easy to prepare for, but I've only had a single one spawn at a time.

QuoteMi-Go are fairly dangerous without personal shields, and can drive a colony to the brink of madness very quickly. Without personal shields, they are a very dangerous foe. Their high damage and high numbers require tactical movement to avoid death.

QuoteDeep Ones seem to be the most dangerous and unreasonable cosmic horror in the pack. They're fast, they have very high damage, fairly high armor, and tons of health. They spawn in large groups, light things on fire, and kill everything in sight. Concentrated fire will not work, because they take out melee units without power armor in 1-3 hits. They also tear turrets to shreds.

At one point I started a tribal colony on Randy Random, and was raided 3 times by Deep One's before the end of the first year. The first raid only spawned one of them, the second raid the same, the third raid (when I made Pemmican) spawned 3 of them and I stood absolutely no chance. Maybe I'm just trying to deal with them wrong, but without cheesing them, I can't seem to ever fight them off.

Quote from: Crypt1cN1nja on February 24, 2017, 04:01:22 AM
Hi! The mod looks awesome, playing a cult was fun, but I wanted to ask/suggest something. I had encountered Inquisitors (My own colonists who turned against the cult), and wanted to really expand on that idea.

Can we get the option to form an Order of Inquisitors rather than a Cult? Can Inquisitors be added as a faction (or is the Agency already like this?)

I really would love to see an expansion on the premise that being a cult or an order of inquisitors costs you allies and enemies, and makes specific types of raids more common (Being a cult means being hunted, being an order means horrors unleashed on you). I would love to do a playthrough where I raid and destroy cult colonies, with an ending where my faction becomes a 40k-esque Ordo Hereticus.

HERESY!

• The Agency now has a custom faction base that loads when attacking them. They have a special internal storage room for artifacts that will be expanded in a later update.
• The Agency now detects if you are a cult or not when they visit your base. Keep your research station and altars hidden from view.
• Coastal Fishing Villages now always spawn by ocean tiles (finally).

• Changed straw hat definitions
• Fixed (remove this) references
• Changing Coastal Fishing Village to Coastal Fishing Town
• Changed fishing town icon
• Added over one hundred new names to the name generator

Quote from: EasyCo on February 26, 2017, 06:30:10 PM
My colony is full of cultists, and recently I managed to recruit an Agency member I'd taken prisoner. The only problem is that now every time she sees anything cult related, I get that warning message showing that the cult was discovered, and I also get an error message saying that the game tried to get the relation between my faction and my faction. Apparently the person I recruited is still registered to trigger that message whenever she sees something cult related, despite no longer being part of the Agency. And just to be clear, her cult-mindedness is not below the threshold or anything like that.

I think there's a bug when using the byakhee with the Cults mod.. My colonists load themselves into the byakhee but when I try to launch the group the game doesn't recognize that they're all loaded in and it reads ''Loading in progress.''. I cancel it and my colonists have locked themselves into a wandering state. When I try to load the previously loaded colonists into the byakhee the game can't find them in the ''loading-tab''.

• Korean translation added to the main mod. Special thanks is in order for our Korean translator,  밀수업자 .

• Cthulhu's Spell: Terrestrial Insanity Wave modified to only work on hostile forces. For friendly forces and visitors, it randomly gives between minor up to severe levels of sanity loss.
• Cthulhu's Spell: Orbital Insanity Wave no longer produces survivors to sacrifice in a circle of sacrificial grind.
• Prisoners should no longer get debuffs from animals being sacrificed.

• Number of Agency bases lowered.
• Number of coastal fishing towns (slightly) lowered, and greatly reduced chances of them appearing on sea ice.

Question: Do statues do anything beyond aesthetics? Eg enhace prayer-gathering?

Quote from: Demiosis on March 09, 2017, 08:38:12 PM
List of Bugs/incoherences that I've found until now:

-Straitjacket does not stop a pyromaniac from setting things on fire.
-Shoggoth having meat and leather (Actual Shoggoths are masses of corrosive protoplasmic jelly that can morph shapes at will)
-Rhombohedral Energy Weapons(They should be unusable until you've researched a high tier tech on the Forbidden knowledge center)
-MiGo Faction should be Yuggoth
-Dark Young and Shoggoth not being 100% immune to any diseases.
-Creature of the mythos sleeping at night (should be the other way around or 50/50 day and night)
*Also Sleeping related: Im not 100% sure on this one but I don't think Shoggoth actually need to sleep at all. They are after all slave creations from the Elder Things(before rebellion) and were used ceaselessly to power various machinery, guard areas, cleaning rooms or as a trash compactor/destroyer.

If i find other stuff I'll let you know..

Hello there Jecrell!
Would you please add a bill to burn strange meat at the electric crematorium? I only see it in the campfires.
Thanks a lot in advance!

• Fixed bug where street lamps would continue to produce light even when breaking down.

• Fixed a bug that prevented spawning multiple star vampires.
• Added the ability to burn strange meat at the crematorium.

MiGo Homeworld:
(snip)

QuoteThe blasphemies which appeared on earth, it was hinted, came from the dark planet Yuggoth, at the rim of the solar system; but this was itself merely the populous outpost of a frightful interstellar race whose ultimate source must lie far outside even the Einsteinian space-time continuum or greatest known cosmos.

QuoteTheir main immediate abode is (...) the object mystically hinted at as "Yuggoth" in certain ancient and forbidden writings; But Yuggoth, of course, is only the stepping-stone. The main body of the beings inhabits strangely organized abysses wholly beyond the utmost reach of any human imagination. 

Quote
To visit Yuggoth would drive any weak man mad—yet I am going there. The black rivers of pitch that flow under those mysterious cyclopean bridges—things built by some elder race extinct and forgotten before the beings came to Yuggoth from the ultimate voids—ought to be enough to make any man a Dante or Poe if he can keep sane long enough to tell what he has seen.

Quote
It was curious to note from the pictured battles that both the Cthulhu spawn and the Mi-Go seem to have been composed of matter more widely different from that which we know than was the substance of the Old Ones. They were able to undergo transformations and reintegrations impossible for their adversaries, and seem therefore to have originally come from even remoter gulfs of the cosmic space

Indeed we could say that some people go native.

• Players have the option to sacrifice humans now for favor only, if they so choose.
• Those with HugsLib enabled can toggle forced Investigations for the Cult Seed event.

In my experience with it, the pilot of the ship has nearly always crashed down with it (FREE PRISONER.)
And the prisoner doesn't need medical care to be sacrificed.

I'm getting this error and i believe Hospitality and Cutls maybe clashing? Or the factions mod you have?

http://txt.do/dtg3d



Basically, i had some guests from The Agency show up, 3 pawns. Each one somehow turned into a prisoner and i got the prompt, "(Pawn name) is escaping", one by one they all exited the map and then i had a bad standind with the faction for being in a cult. Is that supposed to happen? I am going to send this same message to Hospitality author.



Here is a better log with a few more items you can look at that ticked: http://textuploader.com/dtg8d

Quote from: TREH on March 21, 2017, 01:40:26 AM
This is the same bug I reported early. To avoid just don't let the Agency discover your cult things...

Quote from: ChairmanPoo on March 24, 2017, 05:16:41 PM
Some suggestions:

- Becoming a Cult vs becoming Agency-aligned
- When you get a grimoire, you could get the option to build a counter-arcane station. Should allow you to craft various utility arcane items (mostly for defense against horrors and the like), and form an inquisition to purgue cultist thought from your faction. If discovered by fishermen they'll become hostile though. On the other hand, the Agency should be more prone to help you.
- As an addenum, if you're a Cult faction and get outed by the Agency, fishermen should be more prone to help you.

A new resource: vim

This should be an universally craftable arcane resource. Basically you draw blood either from colonists or prisoners. Would be used for various occult purposes, possibly in relation to different gods.
Eg:
- Draw marks in the floor which some brands of incoming Horror raiders wont cross provided you have good relations with their patron (AKA: Dagon piety for Deep Ones, Cthulhu piety for starspawn, etc...)
- Some particular spells and effects (maybe some reanimation spell for either one of the existing deities or a new one, which allows you to resurrect dead pawns as your servants?)


Deity Tweak: Shub Nigguranth
-Replace forbidden knowledge spell with something more fertility-thematic, maybe? I was thinking a healing spell that heals afflictions and the like


New Deity: Yog Sothoth
"The Key and the Gate"
Tier 1: Forbidden knowledge "Yog Sothoth sees all, and knows all"
Tier 2: Imperfect Reanimation (Turn a dead body into a menial labor zombie, basically able to haul, mine, and perform other basic tasks. Does not eat but will progressively reanimate. Permanent morale buff as they're mindless slave thralls)
Tier 4: Manifest Other Self. "The caster communes with Yog Sothoth and discards his current form in favor of that of one of his other incarnations through the whole of space-time" (Removes the caster and gives you instead a new, high quality colonist, which is not necessarily human. Elder Things should be elligible, but ideally there should be a number of other potential alien bodies to act as a basis.)

Tier 4: Perfect Reanimation "Do not call up that which ye cannot put downe" (Resurrects a dead, properly-preserved colonist with all their former skills. Random chance of the pawn's body being posessed by an horror from outside -much carnage should follow if the latter-)

Tier 5 (endgame): Rite of the Silver Key (https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Through_the_Gates_of_the_Silver_Key/full#Chapter_Four)

• Five outfits to compliment your masks and equip your cultists and priests
• Construct-able obelisks.

• Cult founders will not lose their cult-mindedness over time.
  

• Fixed issue with Forbidden Knowledge Center forbidding research for Obelisks.

It kills him ( unless he's Bruce Lee ) and then you have 2 of them on your colony
the two of them become hostile and start attacking the colony....

So my tribals were cozily resting in their bed when I decided to start browsing the terrain to see what sorts of animals I could tame and/or to look out for predators, when I discovered that the ancient one that had meandered into our lands a season ago had met a most unfortunate and anticlimactic end...

In short, it may be ideal to give them immunity to infection -- the easiest way would be to give them a free healthdiff upon spawning with immuneTo tags (just like PenoxycylineHigh), but without any declination in severity. =)

Quote from: ChairmanPoo on April 17, 2017, 02:55:30 PM
Meh, they tend to die a lot anyway. Continuous, severe hunger means that sooner or later they eat all normal wildlife and start hunting more dangerous things... including other predators. So it's a matter of time they'll receive a deadly wound.

Maybe a better way would be to make them as tough as you say but not eating per se... more like the Cthonian event. They pop in and demand a sacrifice. If you won't provide it they won't burst into your base per se, but anything human outside is dead meat.

Quote from: Canute on April 22, 2017, 01:53:56 AM
Not sure about a wiki page/entry but its normaly pretty simple.

At the altar you got 2 tabs, Worship and Sacrifice.
Worship is to setup 2 daily sermons, this is a low but steady influence gain to a deity.

Sacrifice offering and animal are the same, you give items/animal to get influence to a deity.
Sacrifice Human you can use once the deity is "watching" you. This is the special thing with the spell/effect.
Each deity got his own unique spells, all spells got a little description what they do.
Not to speak that you need to upgrade the altar to stage/level 3, but when you did all research about cults you should have done that too.

Thanks :) I don't know how I missed the buttons at the top of the window. This is pretty fun, the race is always on to see if raiders can be sacrificed before they bleed out! Is the Lovecraft storyteller heavily biased towards human raids? I feel like I'm getting just constant waves, in an arctic climate where you usually don't get many. It's fine, just a little surprising.

Just try to spawn a kris with the dev. tool, equip it and try if it works. Then just load a safegame from before and craft a kris.

First I love this mod, the ONLY problem I have with it is, due to Rimworld's balancing, it is nearly impossible to successfully play anywhere near a pure victorian game.  I wanted to challenge myself to play purely in a victorian setting and only use the victorian gear, but with the speed of rot, effects of heat, etc. you pretty much have to use things like air conditioners and the like to preserve your food.  Refridgerators help but they store so little that when you get several colonists you have to have entire walls lined with them it seems like.

Quote from: Canute on May 04, 2017, 01:59:52 AM
Instad of the HiTech-Quantum storages you can use Skully's extended storage.

But a special scenario (with mod if needed) to disallow anything what shouldn't fit in that scenario. That include mechanoids,power armor and others.
But i fear that will be nearly a total conversion.
I thought about to disallow the "Electricity" research, but that would made the game extrem difficult and need other mods (nopower communication) so it need to be more a modpack.

I want to say building an Altar and having daily sermons, combined with the research of Successful Cult Leaders... If all else fails you can just beat them up, knock them out, capture them and then you have your sacrifices.  I actually did that to a dullard who could only shoot and was incapable of anything but, and his pyromaniac mother because.... well he was largely useless and she started fires all the freakin time.  She might as well have lived in a straight jacket.  That's just the price one has to pay to serve a GOO.

Which reminds me.  It would be nice if we could capture people and then put THEM in straight jackets rather than only being able to force it on our own colonists.

Quote- Boost the immunity gain speed of the cosmic horrors, boost it a lot, so they don't die from scratches.

Quote- You could make the dark youngs be incredibly hungry, so they basically wipe your map from wildlife and then hunt your colonists, that would force players to take them out asap.

Quote- All the horrors AI seem to focus on doors when attacking (deep ones mostly), would it be possible to have them have different attack patterns? I know you probably made them that way so they can avoid going trough open paths, that are usually kill boxes, but if you use embrasures they are not a threat at all.

Quote- I may be seasoned player, but i don't find star vampires to be threatening at all with the latest updates,

Jecrell, is there a way to break colonists/pets out of -webs- they get stun-locked into? Before they get assaulted and cocooned? That would be very nice.

Having the same issue, They get stuck in the web forever unless the web itself is destroyed but there is no option other than to shoot at the colonist trapped and hope they hit the web and kill it.

Those sound like separate issues.

One is about someone  suggesting a different method of escaping from webs before a spider reaches them to attack.
The other I am not sure. Are we talking about cocoons, Exoray?

If you are suffering from PERMANENT STUNLOCK that is a mod conflict. It is not something that exists in the arachnophobia mod. The arachnophobia mod stuns for a few seconds.

No, it's the webs themselves perma-stunning the colonists, which either makes the colonist starve to death or leaves them to any predator, including the spiders(Can't tell if it makes the spiders ignore them, though. It might). Mod conflict seems a good place to start. I'll have to shut off all my other mods and test. Thanks, Jecrell!

Hey Jecrell, just wanted to stop by and say congrats on paying the rent. :)

With Arachnophobia I get this error every now and then as I play:

Code Select Expand

ROMA_SpiderRaceGiant11149 did TryFindLastCellBeforeDoor but found none when it should have been one. Target: Cocoon

(Filename: C:/buildslave/unity/build/artifacts/generated/common/runtime/UnityEngineDebugBindings.gen.cpp Line: 42)


• Spiders now seek out the nearest "appropriate" cocoons to consume.
• Russian translation updated and properly credited to kr33man.
• Players can now click the "crossed into web" warning to zoom to the character who crossed into the web.
• Changed the web leavings to very rarely leave a mess of cobwebs.
• Removed strange "doors" error.

Get it mid-game just after loading. Numbers of last string increases infinitely in real-time.
Have strange fealing it's because i did something horribly wrong with mods, but i didin't.
And there are minor glitch with cult - it makes you chose cult name, but not settlement name, andbecause of it default save name is always "new arrivals"

Whenever a visitor is killed by a spider, the colony receives relationship hit with the faction of the victim. Is this intended as wild animals doing wild animal things in vanilla do not affect the faction relationships iirc.

I used dev console to recreate the situation, but it also happens in normal gameplay situations with all factions.

Is it viable to have only the cults mod on? or do you reccomend having the cosmic horros too?
