Deskripsi
Synstructs Core [ABF:SC]

A framework using Artificial Beings Framework (ABF) to implement all the core features necessary to have Synstruct races: An advanced set of synthetic beings that have created a culture all of their own and that have long since integrated into humanity's norms. This framework contains all of the core content and abstract information necessary to for sub mods to implement individual races and mechanics. This mod does not contain any races itself.

Languages:
  • English (Primary)

Features:
This mod contains content that is shared between the various types of synstructs, including:
  • Basic backstories for all kinds of player synstructs
  • Body part definitions used by submods to lay out their races' body types.
  • Directives that reprogrammable synstructs can have implemented to enhance their capabilities.
  • Drug-like items that synstructs can use for temporary buffs. Other races cannot use them.
  • Implants ranging from part upgrades to implants to whole new chassis and frame replacements.
  • Hediffs unique to synstructs that replace vanilla hediffs like hypothermia or heatstroke.
  • Researches necessary to unlock general features in its own research tree.
  • An event that can fire for synstructs where they will ask for permission to change their personality slightly from time to time.
  • Abstract information defined for all synstruct humanlike and animal pawns to use.
  • Unique thoughts for synstructs.
  • A mechanic called Coherence that requires synstructs to meditate on a semi-regular basis to maintain a stable, healthy, happy existence.
  • Various items to repair, improve, or otherwise be used by synstructs.
  • Reliance on mod extensions for extensibility and xml access.

Synstructs have a number of unique features that should be kept in mind, including:
  • An energy requirement.
    • Synstructs can charge from beamcoils passively or from enervoirs actively.
    • Synstructs cannot consume or use food for energy in any way.
    • How much energy a Synstruct needs depends greatly on its model, implants, and various effects. They do not need energy while they are incapacitated or unconscious for any reason.
    • In a pinch, Synstructs can consume chemfuel to restore their energy need - useful for caravans or when the power is out. This will likely be replaced with a custom item or mechanic in the future.
  • A need for coolant and lubricant in order to keep fully operational.
    • Both coolant and lubricant come in packs, manufacturable from the drug lab or en masse at the biofuel refinery. It requires neutroamine and chemfuel to produce.
    • Coolant is strictly necessary to keep operating. While most synstructs only need to be topped up every year or so, they will rapidly enter a comatose state if not supplied.
    • Lubricant is a helpful but non-essential chemical for them. It must be refilled roughly every quadrum, and synstructs who run out will suffer mild penalties.
    • Each race has different needs. Some synstructs may not need one or both. Some synstructs require a vast amount to keep running.
  • A need to run self-maintenance cycles in order to keep a coherent existence.
    • Synstructs will build coherence whenever they are idle or when the need is lower than the target threshold and they are not preoccupied with high priority work tasks. They will not build coherence in the work time assignment unless they are idle. They will prioritize building coherence if in the meditate (Royalty DLC) or sleep time assignments.
    • Synstructs will prefer to build coherence at a designated spot or in their room, if they have either.
    • Synstructs will have a higher mood when at high average coherence, and a poorer mood at low average coherence. This is affected by certain traits.
    • Random positive or negative effects can occur depending on the synstruct's coherence, ranging from critical errors to powerful optimizations.
    • Many synstructs will be better off maintaining a middle-of-the-road approach to their coherence than trying to always maximize it.
  • An aversion to Archotechnology due to being spurned by the great powers that they are not subject to.
    • Synstructs have no psychic sensitivity and no organic matter with which to interface with Psylinks, Mechlinks, or other psychic implements.
    • Designed and crafted by human researchers with no working understanding of how psychic powers work, synstructs are immune to most such phenomena.
    • Archotech implants and upgrades will resist being used by synstructs, and will deeply unsettle them.
  • The restriction that only repair stims can be used to repair synstructs, as normal medicine does not work. Some synstructs may even require higher grade repair stims.
  • The ability to be revived by restruct kits that are manufacturable, rather than mech serum. Make sure to use the correct kit on the correct kind of synstruct.
  • The ability to be configured as drones, reprogrammable drones, or sapient individuals. Simple surgical operations can change their state - but know that stripping a synstruct of its sapience is murder!

Personally I wouldn't mind having to look at the info for that. Something like:

Capable of doing highly skilled complex jobs requiring fine motor skills(fabrication, doctoring).

Capable of doing medium skilled jobs requiring creative thought(artistic, intellectual).

Capable of doing low skilled simple jobs with high speed or efficiency(mining, crafting, refining).

Basicly using specific keywords to indicate what kind of jobs they can do(complex, creative, simple) in combination with a indication of how high the skill cap is(highly skilled, medium skilled, low skilled) and whatever makes them special(efficient, high workspeed etc).

Mods that split jobs into multiple or add new jobs do end up requiring a few more points to spent than otherwise. As you mentioned, there are ways of trying to offset those requirements. As for the difficulty in identifying which races are ideal for what - I agree with you fully. It's a problem I've pondered for a while without any concrete solutions that I would go with yet. Differences in body layouts that can play a role (such as martial synstructs being almost impossible to kill outright before going down due to their structure) and which races can have which jobs assigned and stats surrounding it are something I would like to make more visible. It's just a matter of figuring out how best to express all this in a way that players can find convenient.

What I struggle a bit with is figuring out which robot is good at what. Like, whats the difference between a warrior drone and a reprogrammable commoner tuned for combat with good flak armor? Is a bishop better than a stoic in power armor? Feels like there is a lot of hidden stats you only figure out as they happen.

It's not so much that they don#t work with new jobs, more a balance thing were you need more points to enable split functionality like hauling urgently from allow tool or doctoring, nursing and surgery for whatever mod splits those. It's not a major deal honestly, couple points here and there, easily fixed with that operation that adds points.

I really love the old android tiers, tnxs for your hard work keepting this one alive. :8bitheart:
Killathon  [pembuat] 17 Okt @ 7:09am 
You're not wrong. I didn't like what AT turned into at its later stages of life, so I worked to make my own version that worked the way I wanted to - and stripped out all the features which didn't originally exist but got added in later that I didn't want. I like it this way. As for something not playing well with modded jobs - I'm aware of no outstanding, known issues. If anyone is having issues with third-party mods' jobs making my mechanics misbehave, I cannot know unless told.

This is like android tiers but about 6x more convoluted with what feels like significantly more restriction and less overall features. Appreciate someone keeping it alive but this is trying way too hard to be something completely new, and things like coherence and the drone programming system don't seem to play well at all with modded jobs at all

Given that the 1.5 version is frozen, you’ll just have to live with these things, I suppose. Coolant and lubricant don’t exist in 1.6, anesthesia has never been applied to synstructs via normal operations - third party mods notwithstanding -, synstructs aren’t negatively impacted by gas or other environmental conditions like toxic fallout, etc. No point in complaining if that version no longer receives support.

1.5 that's right.

- My drone rested in critical state in bed (wheres pods tho?) for 1.7 days including recovering (saved him in last moment). And recover took him half of that time (still has debuffs btw). I don't see any sence in this since (ok temperature range is too easy to manage but) neither cars or computers (even reactors) don't take days to refresh coolant and get in optimal working state
- Quadrum is a month in Rimworld
- Well too bad then since it not blacklisted for receiving
- Yeah next time i will explain to myself that my burned down colony was abstracted (i wonder if synths are immune to rot gas)
Killathon  [pembuat] 25 Sep @ 12:23pm 
Judging by the fact that you're talking about coolant and lubricant which exist only in 1.5 and not 1.6, I'm going to guess that's the version of the mod you're running.
- It should take four days at a maximum for coolant shortages to disappear, assuming it reached 100% and the synstruct's reserves are replenished continuously thereafter. It should not take any longer than that.
- Seven days in RW is about half a quadrum. A quadrum is three months in Earth time. So, in RW's time-keeping applied to Earth's, seven RW days is about a month and a half in Earth time. Which is amusing to think about.
- No synstruct operation should be applying anesthesia to them.
- Synstructs don't have smell sensors or a nose-equivalent like humans or mechanoids do - the sense of smell in RimWorld is in fact entirely abstracted away and thus I can't really account for it.
