I love you ferny

Thank you for making these category mods, its such an immense QOL when playing this game with lots of mods that add things.

v17 - moved it to the correct place in the menu

v16 - fixed errors

@Kov fixed

@Kov Whoops, you're right. I'll fix

"Could not resolve cross-reference: No Verse.DesignationCategoryDef named VFE_Factory found to give to Verse.ThingDef AM_MechTargettingBooster"

And three more errors like that for the other entries in the alpha mechs patch. which are pointing to VFE_Factory for designationCategory rather than Ferny_Automation.

Also the entry for AM_MechTargettingBooster is duplicated, I think.

Maybe I am missing a mod on my end, or that new VE Module to replace VE Mechanoids is out and I didn't notice, or something else... in any case I patched it for myself by pointing it to Ferny_Automation.

There's a small error in the xml. It says "</supportedVersions>="

I just tried looking for your kofi, found a link to your patreon on another mod, but that just links to a youtube video I can't watch right now because I'm at work. The "wishlist my game on steam"-link seems to be dead. What do we do about this? :D

Can you post your patreon?

@Futstub 100% yeah

The category mods should be able to be included in an ongoing save in general, right?

v14 - updated to 1.6, removed VFE Mechanoids dependency. 1.5 version still relies on it

anybody having problems with the meat grinder? I can't get it to work.

v13 - fixed rm2 patch

v12 - added Reinforced Mechanoid 2 patch (patch by Lloyd Pinrun)

@Phoenix Yeah I'm not getting that issue even in my huge nearly 900 modlist

True for me I fear and it sucks because I love all your other categories. I tested with just this mod, Androids, and the dependencies, started a fresh Utopia game, and the Android specific buildings are unbuildable unless I remove this mod specifically. It's very odd. :c

@KahirDragoon Yeah sure

Just small thing can you add VFE Mechanoids as a dependency to the about file?

v10 - added patches for Mechanoid Upgrades

@Phoenix That's doesn't seem to be true

This no longer appears to play nice with VRE Androids, as the android-specific structures become unbuildable when this is in my modlist.

Oh my gosh, I'm sorry

@Derrick da Fox Once again my friend that has nothing to do with this, this just patches categories

Funny little bug. With the Mineshaft mod, the driller mech will use it like a normal pawn, “producing” materials. And despite the description saying it doesn’t haul mined recourses, it will carry its mined/produced material and haul it to a storage unit like a normal pawn.

Oh.

@Derrick da Fox Not a question related to this mod, look into VFE Mechanoids

Where can I find or how can I make Mechanator Components?

v9 - added conveyor belts support

v8 - fixed potential errors

could vanilla factions expanded - mechanoid be removed as a requirement?

v7 - added support for WVC - Work Modes and restructured the mod to have less errors and be more organized

could you add project rimfactory support as well?

Could you make this mod not use VFE mechanoids? Or at least a version of this mod without mechanoids as a requirement?

@Potato Masher Yeah blame that on my early modding habits. I'm not much of a stickler for errors, but I might go back and reformat some of these when I update them.

All your category mods seem to flood the startup console with patch operation failures related to mods not present, including the now discontinued Vanilla Achievements Expanded. Though, it still seems to function just fine so... not the end of the world.

hey, could you make it so that if vfe mechanoids isnt loaded it creates its own automation architect tab? i was initially gonna suggest support for alpha mechs in the "biotech category re-examined" mod of yours but this seems like a better idea (i think?)

v6 - updated to 1.5

There is the whole rimfactmods that are automation thèmes as well you could add

Thank you!

@Ganymede Architect icons

What's that mod you have that adds the icons to the ui in the first pic there?

Released a good mod to go along with this:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3138142172

Perhaps include Project Rimfactory too? Since that's a big automation mod, so I think that'd fit in

v4 added the band nodes after some deliberation

v3 added support for VRE Androids
