Comically Large Block of Cheese

[24-07-2024] - This mod was originally just a joke mod I made to play around with Rimworld modding and alike. It does not meet my standards whatsoever. I don't plan to add anything to it, and will only support it for the very few (if any) who might use this in the future. Eventually I may unlist it and drop support at the next major release, but I will continue to make sure it works for versions 1.4 and 1.5.

Ever felt that cheese cube we praise in upcoming anomaly DLC is just a little bit underwhelming? Want to demonstrate true devotion to our one true meaning in life the cube? Want no longer with the Comically Large Block of Cheese, the solution to all of the world's problems! Or at least, the dairy related ones. This leviathan lactose sizes up at an astonishing 19x19 tiles. While extremely expensive in both research and materials cost, they do provide their usefulness in a variety of ways to your colony.

This is a low effort joke mod I spent about half a day on and going into this I had no graphics experience, I watched a 13 minute youtube tutorial and made these textures. I apologise for the low effort and horrific balancing, but after seeing the great cube cult form I just had to, right?

This mod contains two comically large cheeses for base game along with four comically sized research projects, adding a fifth colossal cheese and research project as well as additional features to the art cheese. These of course require solid terrain and cannot be placed under roofs.

• Provides 4000 beauty and a 48 tile artistic meditation bonus with Royalty DLC installed.
  
• Costs a substantial amount of milk, plasteel, and components.
  
• Requires a combined 11000 research cost in industrial and spacer research, as well as Fabrication research.
  
• Its a beautiful, massive block of cheese, what more could you ask for in the center of your base?

• Generates a whopping 52480mW power without having issues being out in the rain, generating clean energy
  
• Requires a large amount of milk, steel, and spacer components to construct.
  
• Requires a combined 15000 research cost as well as Fabrication research.
  
• Did I mention this thing is insanely explosive if damaged? While all these cheeses have a massive amount of hitpoints, this one in particular will create a massive explosion if destroyed, so protect it to your best abilities I guess!

• This massive cheese consumes 5000mW, however, it acts as a mech booster structure except with a massive 56 tile radius, essentially covering the entire base and only requiring one! Also has a high beauty stat, to work a base centerpiece.
  
• This one costs an AI Persona Core for cheese lore reasons, as well as a decent amount of industrial components, spacer components, and milk. Sure these are all expensive and maybe not-really-worth-it, but you have to, its a massive block of cheese. Such a thing is a staple for every well functioning colony last I checked!
  
• Requires a combined 15000 research cost as well as Fabrication, Microelectronics and High Mechtech research projects completed.
  
• Requires Biotech DLC.

• Should be safe to add to save games.
  
• No known incompatible mods.
  
• Contains patches for VGP Vegetable Garden and VFE Insectoids, allowing use of chocolate milk and insect milk from their respective mods to be used as fuel for the power generating cheese.
  
• For change notes see Steam Workshop change notes or CHANGELOG.txt file in the mod folder, this description is already cluttered enough.

Thanks to #mod-development in the Rimworld discord for putting up with my stupid questions.

Thanks to @sveinnblot for coming up with the name neo-lacosium lol
