Blue Lobster Event Expanded

Description
Due to time constrains I will no longer support 1.5, sorry for the inconvenience.

If you only want the american lobster and, if installed, the blue lobster retexture, click here .

Features

HANDMADE TEXTURES

Every genius has a weak spot: his own. Matthaio doesn't know how to draw stuff and that he's the son of man (he's only admitted one of them to this date). This mod changes the textures of the blue lobster to resemble the Rimworld style.

CONFIGURABLE JUMPSCARES

Thanks to the efforts of our buddy AlenDio and their witchcraft (using baby oil and rubber ducks), I've edited their sources to make the Blue Lobster Jumpscares come alive!!! You liked it? Thank him. [ko-fi.com]

MISCELLANEOUS BEHAVIORS

The best thing a storytelling mod could have is a variety of contingencies that make a session fun... this being a simple mod, what's better than a bunch of ridiculous, highly rare situations that make you go "oh, right, I have this garbage installed"?


Blue Lobster Event is a hard requirement
Includes Biotech and Oddysey DLC content integration if owned.



RESOURCE USED

TBA

- Advanced configuration.
Don't like a specific interaction? do to it what you already do to unwanted prisoners!

- Blue Lobster's Ideology integration.
Currently, the statue works without using Ideology.

- Blue Lobster's Anomaly integration.
Would you call them were-lobsters or lobster-men?

CREDITS

UPDATE NOTES
Version
Changes
1.0.0 - 1.2.0
Release - adjustments to textures
1.3.0
Added Jumpscares, name change from "Texture Overhaul" into "Expanded"
1.4.1
Added dessicated textures and "boiled blue lobster" meal, random rare "healing gift" interaction if tamed
1.4.2
Added code optimization, two new rare interactions, adjusted weight for hauling and rescuing, new very rare blue lobster main menu background replacement (no music for the moment)
1.4.3
Added Red (American) Lobsters. Introduced six new rare interactions. Added swimming textures and support for 1.6 behaviors (water-seeking, fishing, and new trainable abilities). Adjusted the Blue Lobster outline to better match RimWorld’s style and scale.
1.4.5
Code cleanup and optimization. Added settings to adjust lobster "rare interaction" frequency. Introduced the Blue Lobster Monument. Added new interactions, and for players with the Royalty DLC, certain interactions now include special effects.
1.4.6
Fixed a bug where the jumpscare failed to display the lobster. Readjusted the frequency of "rare interactions" (excessive pregnancies were disrupting gameplay).
1.4.7
Reduced statue file size (1.0 MB → 95.7 KB). Added two new rare interactions. Midas Claw can no longer turn unfinished crafts into gold, as this made them impossible to complete. Improved checks for Shellfish Conception and Crustacean Cloning to prevent spamming.
1.4.8
Added new rare interactions (up to a total of 18). Added custom textures for young Blue Lobsters and American Lobsters. Changed Shellfish Conception so it no longer targets children or babies. Minor mod settings tweaks, added a setting to completely disable rare interactions
1.4.10
Fixed Healing Gift not displaying the notification correctly, limited Midas Claw to items within close distance to the Blue Lobster, added an enable/disable option for the jumpscare, fixed Baby Blue Lobster texture when swimming (claw was adult-sized), fixed Blue Clone so it correctly copies body type and actually gives them cancer (whoops!), fixed settings not saving correctly.
1.4.11
Reduced textures filesize (love you PNGGauntlet), removed the Blue? American Lobster as it was causing wildlife to never spawn, made adjustments for the American Lobster (also in the standalone)

I panicked too when I realized it was all my fault. Anyway, let's not talk about my personal life.

Yeah, apparently the way Rimworld calculates animal spawns goes haywire if you tell it you want a 0 in 0 chance of blue-painted lobsters spawning in the wild.

>it was causing wildlife to never spawn
IT WAS THIS MOD!? I WENT CRAZY TRYING TO FIX IT LOL:KrilCry:

Bro! Thanks the fixes added to the mod keeping it awesome, it's working way better! Slightly less cursed (oh well), aaaand I finally got my first jumpscare! Yay! My pawns didn't like it as much, but hey, they're not the sadistic archotech watching over them.
However, my second jumpscare was way more... special: it happened during the game load removing the whole game menu and leaving me only with an amazing wallpaper of a giant blue lobster menacingly hovering over the default background of the planet.

Ladies and gentlemen, and whatever you are, Starsector players:

Are you fed up with your lobster committing crimes against nature? Well, now you can download a simple mod to JUST get new textures and the American lobster.

The days of EPSTEIN lobsters are over (just wait until it gets approval from an admin)

I've added a setting option to disable the jumpscare, and now it should save correctly!

I have a pending mod that only includes the american lobster + textures, if you only want cute lobster then I suggest you to turn everything off.

Deleting the assembly file may cause problems with the lobster statue, but if you don't use developer mode you won't notice a thing and it's totally fine to delete it again!

For those who don't know, in-game you can search for the mod, "open folder" and delete:
...\1.6\Assemblies folder

or in RimSort right-click and "open folder"

so far ive sort of fixed it by removing some files, not the prettiest fix but now i can appreciate the beauty of the lobsters :)
Pit-Boy 2 Sep @ 10:13pm
