[1.0] Orassans 🐱

[Diana Winters]

So... Ive not mated the orassans yet since I've downloaded the Children and Pregnancy mod, just curious if you have any intentions of doing an integration patch with that mod.  Would be neat to see a litter of kittens, maybe even have them mature faster than the human pawns, as you previously stated.

Maybe try to do it first to see if it works instead of assuming it needs a patch :p
P.s. if the patch needs C# I won't be able to make it myself

Someone else confirmed that only the humans produce children, I think they mentioned cross-species relationships still spawned human children.  As far as what programming language would be required, I could not begin to tell you.

Update 4: Misc tweaks. Orassans have a higher chance to dodge melee attacks.

Silly question, can orassans actually end up in relationships with humans or other alien races?

Don't you think they are overpowered enough?

Faster, but less durable. And their pets are erm... way too weak to use off base

Erm... ask Diana for old RAR, if current is down?

33 % faster than humans, can tolerate -60 °C naked, ResearchSpeed +20 %, baseBodySize -20 % making them harder to hit, not talking about the weapons.
All in all the most boring race to play with. I've started killing them all as soon as they enter my map. I'd at least expect their leather insulate more, that way they can only be used for chairs. At least my colonists don't complain about the taste of their meat.
Once I finish my current game, I'm removing this boring Mary-Sue / Gary-Stu race.

You can easily tweak their stats, though. It's as easy as looking through the xml files and editing them with a simple text editor because everything is pretty self-explanatory in those files, you don't really need any experience with any programming language or somesuch.

I just download the Orassans-138-17-04.rar
the latest release and don't got problems to open and extract it.

I have no problem with changing stats, but I could expect from a mod author to at least mark his/her mod as game breaking and completely overpowered. No other race mod has such a Mary-Sue attitude.

They come from an ice world and have thick fur? Sure, make them superior to humans and let them endure up to + 26 °C. Ever wore a thick winter coat with outside temperatures above 20 °C?
Ice world ... Yeah, polar bears also vary in color.
Small cat people walking on two legs faster than a human? Sure, my kitty does the same.
Cat people with paws handling guns better than humanlike hands with fingers? Sure, absolutely believable.
If they are 50 % gay, it's not very likely they have a human like reproduction rate.
If they come from an ice planet, wouldn't their damage type of choice be fire instead of ice, when they can handle -60 °C?
And also heighten the research speed for no reason.
Also make them smaller so that they are harder to hit and even up the dodge chance – boring ...

No disadvantages, contradicting race backstory with "plot holes", sounds more like an episode of "Lost".
MARY-SUE!!

Xen's races are much more OP. They are even faster than orassans and tougher than humans. And orassan's gear is one of the sanest from endgame tier stuff mods. So, while hell op compared to vanilla, they are not that op with other mods, especially ones adding more difficulty.

Only thing I have issues with is cryo launcher which is using broken frostbite damage.

Reasonable.

Small creatures tend to move faster. And human legs are not very good at running. Good at standing, yes, but not running. Modern prosthetics for both legs often looks a lot like a digitigrade animal leg.
They are anthropomorphic with humanlike hands.

If they are 50 % gay, it's not very likely they have a human like reproduction rate.

You are assuming human-level gestation time and single offspring per pregnancy. If they have 3-4 per litter, having relatives who can help can be a great benefit.

Also make them smaller so that they are harder to hit and even up the dodge chance – boring ...

A smaller size is both benefit and problem; orassans are more fragile.

I got 7-zip 64 bit, 15.14.
And since you are the only one who reported this problems so far, i think there is a problem at your side.
Maybe try a different brower first.
