@Fysh ~ If you use Dubs Performance, it can tell you what's causing it. It's almost certainly a conflict between mods (possibly CE), so would need more info on what's happening ^.^

@YuYingYa ~ Yeah, I've heard of that issue before, it's some mod conflict, but I haven't been able to narrow it down. If you could send me a mod list exported with RimSort via rentry, and possibly a save just before it happens, that'd be extremely helpful

It's a great mod, but maybe it's because I've subscribed to too many mods that there's a conflict. When you click "Search and Destroy (Ranged)", they rush straight up to you and start close combat. Even though they are armed with ranged weapons, I have already collected the mod and will continue to use it in the future

Anyone else's tps getting obliterated when toggling search and destroy?

Haha allgs, good luck ^.^

@Meme Goddess My bad I didn't know this mod existed, I'm currently updating my modlist so I might miss a few popular ones lol. Yes it seems to do the same, I'll give it a go. Thanks !

@JcDentonQ ~ Is that different from RimKeeper ?

Well, an updated version of wild animal reproduction would be awesome, as far as I'm aware, there's no updated version.

<3 Let me know if there are any other mods I should continue

@Meme Goddess Thanks for keeping all those mods alive <3

@bing bong 멍청한 병신 ~ Nope

@YuYingYa ~ Hmmm, does it say why? Is this a pawn, or an animal/mech?

The remote search and destroy skill seems to be disabled

is it a feature in your mod for pawns to try and equip something when they're on melee search and destroy ?

@Owlie ~ That's a long running mod conflict that I haven't been able to narrow down. If you could, please send me your mod list (exported with RimSort via rentry), and if not too much to ask, a save file of it happening ^.^

@Berrison ~ I'll take a look at that when I get the chance ^.^

@Darkiazu @Busdenaik @SSS-class Warlock ~ <3

Is it just me or is search and destroy (ranged) don't work anymore and pawn now charges blindly into enemy for melee

you r peak!

Hey, thanks for keeping this mod updated. Keep up the good work, many thanks. <3

I love this mod

The related mod collection has also been published on the Steam Workshop.

If that save feels too cluttered, I also know a simpler way to trigger the bug:
During an Anomaly raid, if there are no friendly structures on the map and only one colonist is present, give that colonist the "Invisibility" ability and summon a group of Gorehulks. Then activate "Search and Destroy." At first, the colonist correctly targets and attacks the enemies. But after a few kills, once the Gorehulks lose their target and enter a wandering-like state, the colonist gets forced into "Standing by," and the error log appears again.

I've just added a new save file named "孤星旅人" on GitHub. Once loaded, you'll find yourself in a raid against a Mechanoid base. All colonists are already equipped with Monoswords and Miniguns, ready to switch to "Search and Destroy" mode at any moment.

However, every time these colonists score a kill, they get stuck in a "Standing by" state. In Developer Mode, this shows as a recurring error log indexed 99 times. If you repeatedly click the "Search and Destroy" command, they quickly acquire the next target. But without doing so, they soon fall back into "Standing by." This happens with both ranged and melee colonists — ranged units, for example, often end up idling behind enemies until the enemy fires the first shot, only then reacting.

@Berrison ~ Oh damn, ok. Well there's not much I can do without a rentry modlist, as otherwise it's a *massive* pain to load someone else's modlist. However the alternative is you create a Steam mod collection and send me a save file, although that'd be lower on my list to get to due to the extra effort to download the mods ^.^ That being said, I'm about to get back from holidays pretty soon and will be burning through my todo list, so now is probably the best time for it

I'm completely unable to access sites like GitHub or Rentry, even with a VPN. I've set up the latest RimSort and exported the list, but as a non-programmer, I'm stuck on the "next step" when the XML file won't open correctly. The available guides are outdated, and no one in my local community uses this tool.

Frankly, I prefer manual mod sorting and find this process has ruined my enjoyment of the game. The file I shared was exported from RimSort. If it's not what you need, I'll need extremely detailed, step-by-step instructions, as I lack any technical background.

I'm about to become very busy with real life and may not have time for this again soon, so a clear checklist would be greatly appreciated.

@Berrison ~ Can you use RimSort to export it via rentry? It allows me to just paste the link and have it download and enable all the mods automatically ^.^

https://github.com/berrison/mod/blob/main/mod.xml
Not sure if this is what you're looking for...

@Berrison ~ Please don't post like 10+ comments of the stacktrace. If you need to post something that big, use a pastebin or something. Or, ideally, Hugslib log share. Also a modlist is really the only thing that would help in this case ^.^

Sorry, I'm not in the habit of using Rimsort, but I'll make a point to try it out in the next couple of days to see if I can get you more info. In the meantime, here's my game error log—maybe you can find some clues in there.

@Berrison ~ That doesn't sound like the intended behaviour. Just to confirm, would this mean that it wouldn't attack raids that are "preparing"? If so, can you give a mod list exported with RimSort via rentry?

Hi there! I've got a bit of feedback about the auto-targeting for melee attacks in your mod.

From what I've noticed recently, it seems like colonists only engage enemies that are already in an aggressive state—meaning, if an enemy isn't actively targeting one of my colonists, my melee units won’t initiate an attack. Instead, they just kind of… follow the enemy around, waiting until the enemy locks onto someone before they start swinging.

Would it be possible to adjust this behavior? It'd feel a lot more natural if our colonists could proactively engage nearby hostiles, even if they aren’t actively attacking at that moment.

I think I found a reproducable bug.

1. Take a meele pawn.
2. Cast invisibility on him
3. Toggle search and destroy y meele on
4. Get error pawn started 10 jobs in 1 tick soawn
我的问题跟这个一模一样，不过第四点会在小人杀死了目标之后发生

you are my savior

Hmmm ok, I'll have to look into it. I think I might have seen the issue before, but could never narrow it down, nice to know it's CE

Yeah, it gives lags with CE

im getting lag with CE

@Rassmond ~ Ah yes, it's a mod conflict that I haven't been able to narrow down. Can you give me your mod list? Exported with RimSort via rentry ^.^

@BB7 ~ I haven't actually checked, and out of the country right now so am unable to. If you take a look at RimWorld's key rebinding, there might be an option in there. If it doesn't have it, I'll add it when I get home ^.^

Looks like issue with chasing fleeing pawns with pawns with melee weapon square by square and not hitting still stands

is there a way to edit the keybinds of this mod?

Can i add you on discord? I'll try replicating on the weekend, if possible I would like to sent you a safe file then.
I am geojak on discord too

@Geojak ~ I'm unable to replicate that bug. Does the bug still happen with just this mod installed?

@The_Munkeh ~ It's possible they have a custom thinktree, I'll need to patch it

@Geojak ~ Appreciate you finding that, I'll take a look at it ^.^

Oh and you need enemy's on me map when testing for the error

I think I found a reproducable bug.

1. Take a meele pawn.
2. Cast invisibility on him
3. Toggle search and destroy y meele on
4. Get error pawn started 10 jobs in 1 tick soawn

I have noticed that when the shamblers are set to search they do not. I am using the "One with Death" mod and not sure if its conflicting
The mod allows me to raise shamblers and they cannot work or such but are cannon fodder for battle.

Why haven't I attacked Gorehulk since it escaped after I attacked it up close

hello

Support for vehicles has been on my list for a while, but there's no AI for them currently. I believe at some point they were talking about allowing raiders to use vehicles, which is what I'd probably need before S&D can support it. I mean, unless I write my own AI for it

Would it be possible to add support for vehicle framework then my VE tanks can auto drive / auto fire at pawns please

There is a conflict between Baizhan Bingpu in Mechanoids: Total Warfare and Search and Destroy.
Once a pawn is carrying Baizhan Bingpu, they will keep switching the guns from Baizhan Bingpu endlessly.

If anyone was waiting for RunAndGun, I've released the continued version of it as well now ^.^

sweet, thank you! you really are amazing for getting these mods up to date with 1.6!

@demondust6 ~ I can take a look at it ^.^
