Custom race not in my faction.
So basically there's a custom race that I want to be hatched from an "egg" (a d pile of bones with a soul in it crafted at a special workbench), but upon hatching the pawn is not from my faction and just... walks away to the map's edge. This is the only thing holding this mod from working properly.
Here's my PawnKindDef.
<PawnKindDef> <defName>SkeletonKind</defName> <label>weak skeleton</label> <defaultFactionType>PlayerColony</defaultFactionType> <chemicalAddictionChance>0</chemicalAddictionChance> <combatPower>10</combatPower> <race>Skeleton</race> </PawnKindDef>

As you can see the default faction is set to the player's colony.. My "egg" has the hatcher race set to SkeletonKind so I have no idea why it's not working. Any help is greatly appreciated!

P.S. When the skeleton is spawned via dev mode he does get automatically added to the player's faction.

I have stopped there because I still had no idea how to fix it.

Yes, I still have the problem. No need to apologise for your late answer though.

how is the egg spawning the pawn ? The c# code usually defines what faction they get assigned to.

It spawns the pawn like a vanilla egg would do, which means I only added this in <comps> of that egg:
<li Class="CompProperties_Hatcher"> <hatcherDaystoHatch>0.25</hatcherDaystoHatch> <hatcherPawn>SkeletonKind</hatcherPawn> </li>

ah yeah, that thing kinda assumes animals.
If that egg is assigned to the player faction, it may work, but it really isn't designed for that.
