@Liam
When a pawn is in the warcasket foundry they can't move to go and eat or gain recreation or anything, so you've got to be quick about building them.
Make sure you have all of the required materials for the warcasket available already in your colony, and preferably near the foundry. Then order another pawn to prioritize working at the foundry to get it done quickly.

If you're having technical difficulties with the foundry or warcaskets in general and not this one specifically then the place to ask is probably on the VFE pirates mod rather than here: https://steamproxy.net/workshop/filedetails/?id=2723801948

i cant make a warcasket without them geting a extrem break risk and starvation
can someone help

This looks awesome, reminds me of Shockwave

Indeed, it works as EVA with SOS2. Also I've corrected the insulation values.

As far as I can tell, SOS2 patches the Warcasket base class to have the EVA stats, so it should work. I'll do some quick testing to make sure.

As for the insulation, this is just an oversight on my part and will be corrected.

Sos2 is now in 1.5 here on steam! they changed the eva tag for armors, so will this get the eva tag? would love if it does!

Is it deliberate that the Mechlord warcasket doesn't insulate as well as the other Spacer-tech caskets? While the others provide 80, 10 and 22 for the body, head and shoulders on each range respectively, the Mechlord casket only really seems to be circa the range of the Barrage casket.

Now updated for 1.5

As far as I know nothing in 1.5 should break it, I'll do some quick testing to make sure and persuade Rimworld that this is indeed the case.

Can this be updated to 1.5, perhaps?

i always love to see it when im browsing workshop and i see a mod that i had previously thought "dang why doesn't this exist already?"

That is great!

I'm going to make a "Prestige Spacer Warcaskets" mod which will have integration with this. Its exam season so I don't have time currently, but probably in about 2 weeks.

Would it be possible to add a prestige variant?

fair enough

Not currently, I may add a patch when SoS2 is updated to 1.4 on steam. I'm not sure I want to make a patch for the experimental branch.

Question, will this have the EVA flag when installed with mods like SoS2?

Cool idea!

Thank you!! Had to edit this in with the Rimmsqol mod

If I see this I will jut give up

Ever since I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.

I've just updated it with CE compatibility.

CE compatibility?

Wish factions attacked just like how you see in the Authors preview picture, dont even need the formation, just some decked out dude with an army. great mod :D

Thanks, for making this it will replace my Bothced together version that I made my self after Biotech came out, I just used the base Stats of on of the other Warcaskets and added the Mechlord Stats.

I also would love to see a prestige version!

why does it feel like im playing as a tau... (WH40k) lol

I haven't tested it, but I would assume that if VFE - Pirates itself works with multiplayer then this should too.

Kieran, do you think this should work in multiplayer?

In the future I plan to make a "Prestige Spacer Warcaskets" mod, which will include an extension for a prestige version of this one. No guarantees, but I expect to do that within the next few weeks.

Any chance on making a Prestige version as well? Add a bit of eltex weave to increase the user's psy sensitivity.

Equipping heavy weapons seems to work for me. I believe the VWE - Heavy weapons mod checks if the armor is tagged as power armor, which this warcasket is. If it's not letting you equip a colonist in a mechlord warcasket with a heavy weapon, please let me know the steps you took to get there and I'll see if I can reproduce and fix the issue.

What about equiping heavy weapons, there doesn't seem to be a patch that allows the new trait to use them...

finaly, костюм пельменя

ah, didin't remember the different name (:

And, good point on the cost (:
Thanks!

Looking at Alpha Mechs, it does not seem that it adds one with the same name. The warcasket added by Alpha Mechs is a "Mech Master Warcasket" as opposed to a "Mechlord Warcasket." Also, the Alpha Mechs one is already a higher tier than this one, seeing as it is attached to the extra mech chip tiers added by that mod.

nice!

BTW, alpha mechs also adds one like this, and with the same name. Maybe you should look at that, and make this like a lower teir one?
Just a thought!

I AM INTRIGUED

alr thx

If by 'work' you mean will they function together, then I believe they should. However the warcasket will not be re-textured as it has its own texture files that are not related to the vanilla textures, and will thus not be replaced by modded textures unless the creator of a mod specifically makes them.

Can this mod work with this?

Absolutely incredible. This is so creative, and so well done!
