My metroid larva was working fine until I loaded up my game just now and it wasn't able to eat anymore, couldn't even force it to absorb energy using the ability. It goes straight to wandering.

Kept throwing this error:

Exception ticking RT_MetroidLarvae172204 (at (110, 0, 135)): System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object at RT_Core.Ability_AbsorbEnergy.Activate (Verse.LocalTargetInfo target, Verse.LocalTargetInfo dest) [0x00008] in <b87f0e5f5891479897ca5be3d82659dc>:0 at RimWorld.Verb_CastAbility.TryCastShot () [0x00000] in <c36f9493c9844ddaa7fb5c788416098f>:0 at RT_Core.Verb_CastAbility_Base.TryCastShot () [0x00052] in <b87f0e5f5891479897ca5be3d82659dc>:0 at (wrapper dynamic-method) Verse.Verb.Verse.Verb.TryCastNextBurstShot_Patch0(Verse.Verb) at Verse.Verb.VerbTick () [0x00034] in <c36f9493c9844ddaa7fb5c788416098f>:0 at Verse.VerbTracker.VerbsTick () [0x00019] in <c36f9493c9844ddaa7fb5c788416098f>:0 at RimWorld.Ability.AbilityTick () [0x00006] in <c36f9493c9844ddaa7fb5c788416098f>:0 at RT_Core.Ability_Base.AbilityTick () [0x00001] in <b87f0e5f5891479897ca5be3d82659dc>:0 at RimWorld.Pawn_AbilityTracker.AbilitiesTick () [0x00010] in <c36f9493c9844ddaa7fb5c788416098f>:0 at (wrapper dynamic-method) Verse.Pawn.Verse.Pawn.Tick_Patch1(Verse.Pawn) at Verse.TickList.Tick () [0x0015c] in <c36f9493c9844ddaa7fb5c788416098f>:0

Edit: It started eating on its own, feeding fixed the manual absorb ability as well.

Thank you for your input, but Need a bit more context on most of these if they are to be fixed. Queens don't spawn in dev mode is currently intended as they are broken when spawned in, and just went under a major overhaul. The rest I need context for.

As for evolutions not occurring, what exactly happened? Each metroid is supposed to reach a certain age age before evolving.

ok

whenever i spawn a gamma or a alpha it will turn invisible and i cant see the ui ill send a screenshot of it later today

also i cant wait that long for a metroid to evolve it will take eons!. so can you make metroids evolve in days or quantoms instead.

You can knock down the time needed for metroids to evolve, but I believe you may be right. The time is too long even with them aging up through attacks and injections. I will look into this.

You can upload the screenshot elsewhere or join the Discord (if you have it) A UI problem is very serious, so it'd help to get the most info on this that I can.

As for a metroid larva leaving in a couple days... do you tame it? Does it have live food it can attach to? If there are no live prey that are suitable, a wild one will leave.

I'm not sure I understand. Are these bugs, or suggestions? I'm going to assume the latter.

A: Larva can be tamed; it's one of two stages that allow it. Further stages don't, and having only the bantee metroid able to be tamed sounds too restrictive for players at the moment. Maybe this will change later, when more metroids are within the mod.

B: Food doesn't persist. They feed in canon, so they feed in the mod.

C: That's the restriciton with flying animals. They can move arround terrain freely but cannot actually bypass walls. That would be a ton of coding, and be very bad on performance when it comes to pathfinding. This is also the reason why just about every other mod doesn't have flying animals that passively fly.

Metroids stay around as long as there is a food source. Once no food source is around for a wild metroid, they leave. And a tmaed one will berserk against the colony if no food source is around. You can use a pylon or a prisoner to make sure they have easy, reliable access.

I'm having trouble killing a downed metroid queen.
it was bleeding to death, reached 0 seconds, and then the wounds began healing. also i couldnt get a colonist to hunt them, as they do the job but don't kill it. and attacking it doesn't work either.
