i made a mod: Very Vanilla Turrets

it's a pretty basic set of turrets. I couldn't find a mod that provided 'the basic turrets, but upgraded versions as you move through the tech tree' so resolved to solve the problem myself. im mostly happy with how it came out.

give it a go or dont im not your mum

Pleased to see this. There was a "Simple Turrets" mod which did similar things and has been unmaintained for some time, a shame as stuff like the shotgun and advanced mini turret in that were nice. The only real missing thing is the laser and sniper turrets but those were respectively niche and busted so no great loss.

Anyone who shows up in a drop pod goes to prison if I deem them useful, unless they already happen to have my colony's religion. And they stay in prison until they decide that, actually, raiders aren't human beings; they just happen to have human organs. And that the group of beggars showing up and asking for 100 herbal medicine to "attempt a life saving operation on their friend" are probably trying to scam us or have no idea what they're doing and their friend is dead either way, so gently caress wasting 100 herbal medicine for no reason.

Oh and also using the eldritch energies from an extra-dimensional realm of madness to turn various lifeforms into eyeball-covered abominations like a crop-duster filled with g-virus flew over the area in order for them to serve us is actually a great idea.

Can't everyone see how much happier they all are once they emerge from the Convincement Chamber? Really I'm doing them a favor when I enlighten them to the truth of why becoming a bio-sculpted monstrosity citizen working to summon eldritch gods that will mercifully kill us first is good for them, actually.

I got a crashed pod with the mother of one colonist (who is the lover of her dad - also a colonist ).

Love it when parents drop by.

In my latest run of a chartacer-edited one-man raid stopper, Ninja, I just set him up with a base instead of caravaning the world when who wanders in but his dad, Bear. Full on Are You Winning Yet, Son? energy. He's an excellent fighter even without bionics, randomly had nature focus for getting psycasts, and that's cool as he nothing else to contribute but sitting by a tree all day. A missing leg was just an easy opportunity to start him on his new cyborg journey. Now, they are an unstoppable, kill-thirsty outpost smashing duo.

Anyone here a guru at reading logs? My game was fine, haven't updated any mods in ~24 hours, but now when I load my save it plays for about a minute then shits the bed. Crash to desktop, no error message or anything. The ingame log thing has a bunch of red but it's all Greek to me.

How do you even read this stuff

Thanks for any help or mockery.

load your save, save it to a fresh save file name, quit the game entirely and reboot, then load the fresh save and pray

you have a lot of really nasty looking errors in there and if you hadn't recently added any new mods, there isn't a great explanation for some of them - this poo poo in particular is like, you have a damaged or otherwise bad bitmap file or you were given a system or driver update that is hosed up for some reason unrelated to the game files :shrug:

code:
d3d11: failed to create 2D texture id=6005 width=128 height=511 mips=10 dxgifmt=28 [D3D error was 80070057]

so yeah write a fresh save, reboot and try to load the fresh save, review the log for anything like this or that is labeled "exception"

the problem may not be linked to your save at all, so you should try loading it again after you do this

Some technique in handling this can make it faster. Do one half at a time. Then you'll know which half it is. Then of what's left, do half again. Repeat a few times and it gets narrowed down pretty quick. A lot easier than hunt-and-peck or guessing.

Well that was faster than I expected. It was this mod that was causing the crash and the d3d errors. New log looks much cleaner I think?

Thanks for the help folks, much appreciated.

Damnit Steve, you know I'm a sucker for Back to the Future references.
Having some issues with a colonist I've arrested due to a trantrum. They're kind of just stuck and I can't do anything with them other than release, and when I do that they want to leave. I can't re-recruit them or anything. My wardens don't seem to have any options. It's very odd.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong.

EDIT: nevermind, it looks like there's some hidden cooldown on wardens doing things so that probably explains it.

I recently got a raid event which I assume is probably from a mod, which is basically a normal raid, except all the raiders were kids from one of the always-at-war factions. Just a wave of like 60 kids that can't be reasoned with brandishing shivs and wooden swords and what I assume are toy bows, all throwing themselves at my fortifications and static defense emplacements. I tried saving those that got downed but even then not many made it, so now on top of everything else there's piles of dead kids all over the place which need to be dealt with. My colonists were left kind of traumatized by the whole thing, and I gotta admit it's the first time in a while I felt bad about doing bad things to raiders, not that I had much of a choice.

I'm not running a cannibal colony and it's sufficiently well-established that I shouldn't have to resort to rim delicacies even if I get hit by long term toxic fallout, permanent darkness, and EM disruptions all at once.

Guess I'll use them to extract human genomes and biomatter for my genetics research. Good thing colonists don't mind throwing human bodies in the giant grinder to get raw gene templates, or centrifuging them into sludge and separating the result, or however it is they manage to extract a single vial of purified genetic material out of an entire human body.

My most recent colony has been a weird experience, I’m not sure if something bugged but it’s been almost a year and I haven’t had a single raid. Mad animals, sure, but nobody’s shown up to actually fight me and it’s kind of frustrating! I’m doing a sanguinophage run and my starting pawns are honestly trash at almost everything other than social, but I figured, hey, no problemo, just down some raiders and start building my vampire’s lady’s harem of sexy himbo goth butlers. Now my starting pair have each had an inspired recruitment come and go with nothing to show for it.

I never thought I’d see the day where I was actually hoping for more mindless dumbasses to just throw themselves against my walls.
