Updated to Alpha 11.

Stuffed Warg and Warg Rug have been added.
The Warg rug uses the Boar texture at the moment. This will be updated in the future. You can make the rugs now, as when I add the proper texture, existing saved games won't be affected. (Except they'll start showing the correct texture for the Warg rugs.)

A souvenir of past hunting parties gives you a great joy, seeing the most of you killing wild herds of haunted beasts!
Would it be sane to propose pet rugs?

Personally, I'd like DOOM pigs as pets

really, since they do NOTHING for the ingredients either.

Do they? I haven't tested if that's the case, with some stacks of altered leathers.
Now, if no effect on ingredients, why not, but if it has an effect on cloth/leather piles, then another filterset would be more appropriate, as you might want to total count independently and respect the existing logic, only extending it.

minimap + 1000

do until on clothing, needs to only count what you include on the quality and hit points bar, Not everything in the stockpile.

I mean, this is conflicting: filters are made for ingredients, not results, so it's debatable, imo...

do until on clothing, needs to only count what you include on the quality and hit points bar, Not everything in the stockpile.

Sure, these are filters that should defo apply!

What has been said and done (i.e. for us):

• download and install the backstory mod as is
• go back to your mod and then create a backstorydefs subfolder (putting these in your own mod ensures the "install & forget" you want) and go

Found this in Core Defs -> ThingDef -> Races_Animals.xml:

if he goes through this one, I would also request "Do until" for clothes to only count total of thing in your stockpiles, instead of all the map

It's a virtual one, it's not that bad People would help you, if need be

Maybe I am not on spot at all, but isn't there a zombie apocalypse mod, that might be of interest?

Would be useful if there was an XSD (XML Schema Definition) for each of the XML files, would make validating XML between version far easier.

def schema validation would be of help. Without it, beyond compare, winmerge and so on.

Ok, I believe this one to be a tough one:

Project K9 spawns custom pawns as wild. At that stage, these pawns already have several specific jobs, directly commanded by ThinkTree.
Some of these jobs are in need of putting exclusive reservation on things, to avoid concurrency with colonists.

For instance, before these custom pawns become "Colonists", they would be able to nourish from corpses.
From what I have seen, if they are not in Colony faction, I will get potential conflicts trying to do a reserve on a corpse and I have no guarantee that someone in the colony doesn't try to grab that corpse when I have a job on it.

From what I have also seen briefly, other mods creating pawns (Droids for instance) are setting faction to be of the Colony one. It makes sense in their point of view, but this is probably also made to allow hauling and more generally, works, to respect colony reservations.

In my case, I don't necessarily want my pawns to be in that Colony faction immediately, but maybe after an interaction has been done with the custom pawn itself, later on.


QUESTION:
can I get a reserve flag of a thing, that will be cross-faction or at least Colonist-safe, if I am not in colony faction? Or should I only do Colony faction pawns, like others did and deal with all the other trackers initially?

Will appreciate any contrib/help on this one a lot!

UPDATE: I now have problems with paths of our custom pawns.
They conditionaly can wander the colony when they are tamed, but currently, they cross doors without problems and without activating doors animations (pass-through).

QUESTION: anyway I can avoid it when Wander colony is active in their thinktree node?

These are useful piece of information. If I have other precise questions on backstory matters, I'll come by and bump them here.
Thanks again
