any chance you could do a mod allowing non lithoids to use terravore? Im looking to do a tyranid faction but I lack the skill to mod it myself

ah thanks will check it out later
MrCrispyClone 9 Jun, 2022 @ 1:51pm

Hey sorry, I delisted it while I was fixing the issue you were having. Should be back up and fixed now.

Did something happen to the Advanced Terravoracious? Cant seem to access it

@kinngrimm @Cobra33clone New mod is up! Haven't done too much testing on it yet, but you can check it out here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2818653274

i think it could. Anather way of doing it came to mind. Having that decision/action done by a construction ... sorry i ment to say deconstruction ship be done =)

Let us know when that other mod is done and i will check it definetly out, thanks for your work and passion :)

@kinngrimm Hey check out my reply to Cobra. I've started working on another mod where "Consume World" will act as a Toggle On/Off decision like Martial Law. I'm not sure exactly how it will work, but would something like that fix your micro issue?
kinngrimm 7 Jun, 2022 @ 3:05pm 
-_- i may have missclicked and deleted one too many of my comments so, in which i made a suggestion about enabling Terravors to consume Barren/Molten/uncolonizable planets. That was for two reasons. For one without keeping your changes in mind, the progress of Terravor felt rather slow and sluggish/interrupted(?). Like you run a few meters than you stop and wait, then you run a few meter and stop and wait. With having more things to consume, i wouldnt check all the time to transfer from one particular planet, but as they are on completion of consumption transfered to my main planert transfer from there. That but only makes sense with a steady income of pops, which currently is not the case. Again also as i see it because of the many times i have to start the action to consume. I would assume a world eater doesnt just wait around all the time but gets going eating his full ^^ ... right Galactus?

I just started testing with my last game, when i reread you mentioning that you increased the numbers again which i assume you mean pops/alloys/minerals.

In terms of minerals , before it seemed fine, as i mentioned i needed to check regularly to sell minerals of. In terms of alloys an increase was definietly needed and a slight(like one more pop as base so you gain 2-4 randomized) would be sufficient i think. To be sure i will start a new game and tell you how it feels then.
kinngrimm 7 Jun, 2022 @ 2:34pm 
In that the decision, for that it is very monoton and pretty much always the same without much thinking, therefor i think if it would just take my money every other 180 days and gives me the notification sound/icons, but then restart the process on its own, would increase the flow. For the reason that it was so microintense i stoped that playthrough yesterday ^^ ... been doing machine empire currently. Still i do like the concept of terravore a lot. I imagine it like galactus from fantastic four movie where the silver server first puts the holes in the ground hrhr and then galactus takes a bite.
kinngrimm 7 Jun, 2022 @ 2:32pm 
don't mention it, its you doing all the work mate :)
oh i was thinking about it today too and again not sure if doable or anything, but could this action be done on a repeat timer? The micro is real with terravor and not having to click it all the time would be nice. One still needs to keep an eye on making sure that the minerals wont overflow or the then would be regular costs wouldn't ruin one and ocationally one still needs to check to transfer pops, but the reinacting of the planet decision kills my carpal tunnel complettly.

Currently my "workflow" was
checking ressource limits and if need be selling minerals
checking pops on the to be consumed planet, all above 1 transfer of( i dont wait for the complet consumption and costfree transfer, but invest that gold to get them where they are needed)
enabling the dicision for a couple of planets at the same time
repeat

@kinngrimm Hey, I have an update with a separate decision that takes half the time, but costs unity and influence to enact. I'll be pushing it today, alongside a general buff to the numbers again, since I think with the Cepheus update Terravore needs some help to stay relevant. Thanks for the idea!
Zetal  [author] 7 Jun, 2022 @ 1:06pm 
Hmm, trouble with that is the Enactment Time for a decision has to be a static value, so depending on what number I choose it would either be too long for small planets, or too short for big planets. I might be able to add in a Decision that applies instantly (maybe with a reversal decision, too, to undo it?) and starts a timer per world that would be able to use modifiers to keep track of how much longer before the world is destroyed, or gradually destroy districts automatically...? Yes, yes, that should definitely be doable. If I was going to do that, I think I'd upload a different mod though, since it's pretty different from the feel of this mod. I'll keep you notified if I do. Thanks!
MrCrispyClone 7 Jun, 2022 @ 5:51am 
Could there be a way to add a "Consume Entire World" Decision to destroy the world in one click because i love the idea of a terravore and your mod is a must have. However when you want to eat the universe, constantly having to click "Consume World" multiple times on each world get tiresome.
Zetal  [author] 3 Jun, 2022 @ 11:39am 
Yea, I think an edict could be an interesting way of achieving that.
kinngrimm 1 Jun, 2022 @ 6:41pm 
ah ok :) so my guess was right, meanwhile i played with it for few hours and i saw that i got upto 2 additional pops but wasnt making the conncetion to your mod quite yet ^^. One thing i still would imagine could fit in here is either a tech or some cost for which one could "speed up the process" of instead 360 days only 180 till rince repeat, but have to invest 30 unity or influence, what do you think?
Zetal  [author] 1 Jun, 2022 @ 5:39pm 
Yea, that's a slightly deceptive description. You only get 2 Pops instead of 1, not 5.
kinngrimm 1 Jun, 2022 @ 9:13am 
does that include pops which are ocationally produced in this proces of devouring a world?
so instead one you get 5 to 10? That would maybe a bit too much, right? maybe 2* pops
