updated to the new food based loot

Is there anyway for the mobs to drop the new materials for Apex? they are currently dropping something that the new food processor can not use. The mod otherwise, appears to be working

I look forward to this being updated! I'll be using it with the CAT - Much Food mod for more complex survival mechanics on my server

Yes, this week

Do you plan on making this compatible with apex survival? Eg new meats and such

A missing animation doesn't cause a crash you just get a frozen object. The exploding creature (tentacle) is removed at death dropping a loot bag.

Without seeing the whole log I can't say what actually caused the crash the snip below indicates it began with the terminal screen gui.

I really like this mod, but it will just crash the game randomly during play. :steamfacepalm: Looks like the author included something called the "exploding creature" and didn't give it a dead model so the game just dies.

I would recommend using the mes version, then you'll be able to create a spawn group without having to modify the planets directly

I'm sure you've answered this before, but is it possible for these aliens to spawn on other planets? I have an existing Ares at War scenario world that I am wanting to add this mod for, curious before I go plunging headfirst into stupidity lol. Thank you in advance!

No that'll be coming from somewhere else
