[1.3] Miscellaneous w MAI+Robots

SocialAnxiety:  have you tried manually ordering one of your colonists to do it?

[RickyMartini]

Was my bug confirmed Haplo? Can anyone else confirm my bug?

[Haplo]

I've looked how I made it and this is how the repairing of limbs with MAI is working:
1. it checks every 1200 ticks if a limb is missing
2. It has a 50% chance to do nothing
3. It checks, if a recharge station is at its position
4. It checks if there are 30 plasteel in adjacent nanite assemblers
5. Now it restores one random missing bodypart

So it should always work inside a recharge station if you have the plasteel available.
BUT it also always has a 50% chance to do nothing at all!

Yes, obviously I have. So, messing around with DevMode to spawn in the resources and buildings, it's became apparent that I can only program/activate MAI if I have an AI Persona Core with me. But those are both expensive to buy (if you can even buy them) and hard to obtain considering the rare event of a ship part crash.

no and ia core is an option. Gold is the hardest part to obtain, as it takes 20 times as much as it says, as gold is a small item.

You have two options:
- You 'activate Mai', this requires 40 Plasteel and 40 Gold (it shows 2, but 40 is the real value)
- Or you 'activate MAI', this requires 50 Plasteel and 1 AI Core

Hmm, maybe I'll reduce the Gold needed to 20 (aka 1)..

Okay, thanks Haplo for taking your time to test this. So this means it doesn't have to be a medical station? I'll report back and will try it!

[Haplo]

Yes, it only tests, if the building is a recharge station. It doesn't test, if it is set to medical or not.

It is Update Time

In whatever free time I could find I've worked on a special version of the shooting range.
Now here it is. With the new update you get the targets for ranged and for melee weapons.
With these you can make your own shooting range or dojo where your colonists go for joy, or where you can send them to improve their weapon skills.

Awesome!
And it's a stand-alone mod too!
It's like Christmas!
...Wait, it is Christmas!

Thanks for the present haplo

Heyo- Just grabbed this mod a bit ago, and I'm loving it and all, but quick question.

Have you looked into making this work with the Crash landing mod by Katavrik? It seems that the map generation stuff for the abandoned villages doesn't play nice with the crash landing start, which is a real shame, because watching debris fall from the sky and having a bit of a panic for the first few moments of the game is pretty damn cool.
It only seems to affect the starting crash, from what I gather.

Aaaah, Fixed it by simply having the crash landing mod after it in the load order, go figure.

Found an incredibly frustrating issue where my haul bots, I don't think I've seen a cleaning bot do it, just kinda seize up and twitch like they're having a seizure. If selected you can see them attempt to path every couple seconds but they just freeze and don't move again after that.

Not sure if it's connected or not but about when this happens my game starts lagging like crazy. Yet I'm not even using half my ram or CPU and my GPU doesn't seem particularly stressed.

[RickyMartini]

Hmm never happened to me Selonianth. Are the rest of the colonists behaving normally when hauling?
