[A17] Balancing Act | A game-balancing mod

[Nattiejim]

The A16 beta has been released!

However, I haven't tested BalancingAct for compatibility yet (and I highly doubt it's not completely broken with the new alpha's changes), and I've been busy for a while. I'll try to make an update for the beta, but no promises. If I can't finish an update before the full A16 release, I'll update as normal after A16 comes out fully.

Mod updated!
Mod updated to add compatibility for A16 and allow pod launchers to hold a bit more fuel.
**Please note that the mirrors are not yet updated; and that this has not been extensively tested. Please report any errors.

I can't find the A16 version.  I clicked on both the Nexus and the mirror link in the first post, and they are both from October (A15).  Am I missing an obvious link somewhere?  If so, I'd appreciate a non-subtle link.

Noticed this already, sorry for that. Hotfix in the works right now.

[Nattiejim]

Hotfix for the hotfix
I released another update that fixed errors at startup.

Is the Lite version not getting updated?

Wasn't required, the Lite version didn't have the bug to my knowledge.

I think it still has a problem.  As soon as I load Rimworld with balancing act I get the error dialogue box:

Make sure to keep the mod near the top of the list. Also, NONE of these errors seem to be connected to BA.

Mod updated!
The mod has been updated for compatibility with A17. Steam users should receive the update automatically.

In addition:
- Psychopaths no longer care if a friend, relative, or pet is murdered or sold into slavery. Masochists no longer care if someone harms them. However, those who do care about such things now remember it for much longer.

- It is now possible to make chemfuel with hay again. However, it costs much more hay and produces less fuel than if you had used a non-hay material.

Enjoy the mod!

BUG REPORT

Balancing Act seems to have some problem with Vegetable Garden. Whenever the two mods are loaded (and order does not seem to matter), the game panics and does the whole "Recovering from Incompatable or Corrupted Mods" thing. Confirmed with just Core, HugsLib, Vegetable Garden, and Balancing Act active. OS is Linux, Rimworld version is 17b (1557). I tried several times, moving Balancing Act lower in the mod order each time until just after Core. Every time, as long as Balancing Act and Vegetable Garden were loaded, the same error occurred.

Thanks for the report. I'll see if I can get to the bottom of it.
