Every now and then I look at the npcs and wonder why they're all like "This is fine."

And then I remember.

Looks like this is dead for now. I wonder if there are issues getting the authors permission to update?

Guys this has been requested for Mlie's queue. It just may take a (long) while.

1.4 update? If not, can some modder branch this?
submeg 21 Oct, 2022 @ 11:00pm 
Does anyone know if this is working with 1.4?

The mod works fine as it is. If you had friendlies or even pawns constantly watching the whole map as home area for fires, I imagine it would be a lag/ticks nightmare.

It also encourages the player to further watch their surroundings (I removed alerts for raids, for example), and to be generally smarter in playing the game.

If you need friendlies to help, paint home area around fire. Remove it once the fire is extinguished. It's as simple as that.

Thank you for the great mod.

Since friendlies are programmed to only fight fires inside the player home area, the visiting caravan I had did nothing about the roaring fire consuming half of the map and coming towards my base. Only after it had reached us did they start doing something. I wouldn't exect them to care for the entirety of the map, but while the fire was coming, they kept standing on top of it like a bunch of morons...

So with the launch of the smurf mod, I gonna divert my resources and time on other stuffs and my professional work until funding raising targets are met.

I will also create rimworld related youtube content - probably a lot to do with the mods I created on my walkingproblem studio youtube channel. (please subscribe here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgUW0Ls2wbY8h79pV9xnMjw )

Subscriber Targets
~ 100 to allow me to have a custom youtube channel ID
~ 1000 to allow me to monetise the youtube channel.

My aim is 1000 subscribers, so that my content will allow me to earn advertising dollars - which in term will allow me to spend more time on modding.This is actually the best thing to help me help you get more of my mods updated and created!

@poopytits - I KNOW RIGHT!?

I'm so pissed every time they just leave my colonists to die, when they are just stand around and watch....

Thus this mod. I'm surprised how well it worked out =}

Maybe someday I can do one that they help to treat our injured/downed colonists~

a sincere thank you, WalkingProblem. no more will I have to witness my allies loitering indifferently around my burning base while my remaining, half crippled pawns fail miserably at controlling the flames and eventually perish in superheated rooms

Might want to make friendlies not walk through forbidden doors to fight fires - I keep having friendlies wander into combat zones to do so.
Pan 25 Apr, 2021 @ 11:29am

The last Eternal 20 Feb, 2021 @ 8:35am

Thanks a lot for maintaining this mod, can't wait for the update!
FrankTheMagicPotato 19 Oct, 2020 @ 5:38am 
That's cool, I understand real life comes far before mod updates. Thank you! To anyone else looking, it works and doesn't throw any errors, at least for me.
WalkingProblem  [author] 15 Oct, 2020 @ 12:50pm 
Hi all.

Yes. I will be updating it.

Around mid November, as I am swamped with work.
FrankTheMagicPotato 2 Oct, 2020 @ 11:31am 
It works for me, no errors that I've noticed.
secretskyhawk 2 Oct, 2020 @ 8:07am 
Does it work in 1.2 at all?
eg7560251 25 Sep, 2020 @ 2:08pm 
Save compatible?
FrankTheMagicPotato 9 Sep, 2020 @ 9:29am 
1.2?
thorman123456789 25 Aug, 2020 @ 4:29pm 
1.2?
FrankTheMagicPotato 19 Aug, 2020 @ 7:42pm 
I dont want to demand an update. But i just want to knowif you plan on updating, even it will be a while.
Videogameplayer 19 Aug, 2020 @ 11:35am 
I have no demands or expectations but would just like to say that if this mod was updated to 1.2, I would be happy.
Thunderstorrm 13 Aug, 2020 @ 11:24pm 
@WalkingProblem Do you know if you'll be updating this mod? I really like it and am hoping you will. I'd totally offer to help you but unfortunately I know nothing about mods or how to make them. I wish I did and could help update all the mods I have that are still not up to 1.2. Anyway I appreciate your mod and would really love to see it updated. Thank you for making it for us!
Kriz 12 Aug, 2020 @ 6:45pm 
Can you update to 1.2 pls :lunar2020hearteyesrabbit:
Mur Derer 25 Apr, 2020 @ 4:38pm 
What about multiplayer?
WalkingProblem  [author] 23 Apr, 2020 @ 2:00pm 
@kpunk21 - I added a painthreshold check. So if they are closed to their painthreshold (which means they are in quite an amount of pain) - they will not fight fire. Its just "a little more careful" thats all... not by much.

Because if its "as long as they are injured" - after a firefight, usually everyone is injured. So thats not a solution. You see if it is better. (already updated)
Think3r 23 Apr, 2020 @ 7:48am 
Thanks! I'll definitely sub once the mentioned problems are fixed. They may be little, but they disturb the immersion and will harm the faction relation if friendly pawns manage to get killed in the process.
Bobby_Hill 23 Apr, 2020 @ 7:10am 
NIIICEEE
WalkingProblem  [author] 23 Apr, 2020 @ 5:06am 
@BobbyHill @Think3r - the bugs are from Starship Troopers Arachnid mod. I'm currently updating it to Rimworld 1.1

@kpunk21 - Noted
Think3r 22 Apr, 2020 @ 1:59am 
@BobbyHill Alpha Animals.
Juke Dragh 21 Apr, 2020 @ 5:02pm 
I def don't like it when one of the friendlies I saved decides they want to fight a fire 100 tiles away with 13% Moving. Maybe exclude injured/heavily injured pawns?
Bobby_Hill 21 Apr, 2020 @ 12:45pm 
what are those dead giant bugs from?
Anvil Pants 19 Apr, 2020 @ 12:57pm 
@WalkingProblem, Orion generally avoids addressing conflicts like this on his end. The Locks mod handles Visitor pawns. Maybe it's already solved there.
WalkingProblem  [author] 19 Apr, 2020 @ 11:31am 
@Bjay Croft - Oops... hmmm.... Thanks for the feedback... I will take that into consideration to see if I can set marked door as a "bad idea" as pathing to fight fire. hhahaa

I respect his sincerity and courage to fight fire for you~

@Anvil Pants - hmm... The code fix would have to be asking allies to respect our door marking... I wonder who should be fixing that. Hospitality or Me. =x
Anvil Pants 19 Apr, 2020 @ 10:37am 
@BJay Croft, yes, Hospitality sets visiting guest pawns as allies when the guest arrival event fires.
Adoll't 17 Apr, 2020 @ 12:03am 
So idk if hospitality visitors count but one of my visitors ran out a marked door, into a manhunting pack of boomalopes to go fight a boomalope fire :cactusrum:
WalkingProblem  [author] 16 Apr, 2020 @ 10:57pm 
Who is the asshole that gave a downvote? >={
Crasher105 14 Apr, 2020 @ 5:18pm 
I remember fondly the time a pyromaniac visitor set fire to my base
WalkingProblem  [author] 14 Apr, 2020 @ 3:52pm 
@|dvh| - You welcome! Have fun!

@A3 - haha~ There are good reasons for vanilla not to have it too. Tragedy is part of the game.

@rebelscum - it should be compatible. Since it just getting neutrals and friendlies to help to fight fire in your base

@Chicken Plucker - Guess where I get the inspiration? =P
Chicken Plucker 14 Apr, 2020 @ 2:41pm 
I like the art! great work
rebelscum 14 Apr, 2020 @ 10:54am 
I imagine this will be Fun with CE and how it makes fires way more dangerous.
A3rinite 14 Apr, 2020 @ 8:40am 
Ok this is awesome. Should be in vanilla.
|dvh| 14 Apr, 2020 @ 8:03am 
This is amazing, thank you!
