@`r0'it^-Alio Very late response but I just did an experiment with this and found that Ratkin apparel and equipment can be used by Non - Ratkin pawns so long as they are the Thin body type

A Non - Ratkin pawn CANNOT pick up anything Ratkin related to equip it as they are "Human" but if you use character edit and add it to the pawn they will use it

This means Ratkin's restrictions on equipment are a legacy of the HAR framework as that was the only way to enforce body types before xenotypes existed, if the race requirement on a Ratkin apparel, weapon etc is removed and somehow changed to a Thin body type gene lock then we can have our cake and eat it

Can this mod substitute the original mod and be compatible or work instead of using the original? I would like to use the Xenotype instead of injecting the race because now we have biotech.

@DickHardly I'd like to know this too. Is the Ratkin Xenotype recognised as the Ratkin race by mods such as outfits and weapons which specify they are only usable by HAR Ratkins and if not is it possible for some sort of flag to be added to a part of the Ratkin Xenotype so it triggers these mods to think anything with that Xenotype part is a Ratkin

Are other mods that add to ratkin compatible with this?

Some idiot was issuing fake dmca , sadly some mods authors are not active and didnt dispute it

@Seanggag @Luke TasRook I love the original Ratkin mod but in all honesty the original author really by this point should have done what this mod does and converted Ratkins to a xenotype. Humanoid Alien Races existed because it was the only way to inject custom races into the game prior to Biotech, Biotech's Xenotypes is HAR

I don't know why the other Ratkin mod would be DMCA'd but if done by the original developer I hope instead of just doing it to this one they reach out to Seanggag and offer to merge the Xenotype into their own mod

@Luke TasRook For now, I haven't been any DMCA takedown notices.

The other mods like ratkin gear and ratkin factions just got nuked off steam. DMCA claim?

@SaltyStoryteller Vanilla Expanded Framework has a feature that let you add modded factions into an existing game, i think

@MagicRobo have you got the Standalone Ratkin gear and made sure your colonist is using the "thin" body type?

how can i get them to wear ratkin clothing?

혹시 문젤리랑 렛킨 운반량 감소 유전자 통일은 힘들까요? 감소치 3 차이에 대사효율 복잡도 이름까지 같아서 자꾸 헷갈리네요

If I add this in mid-playthrough, will the ratties show up in my game, or will I have to start a whole new map to get them to be a thing? I couldn't wait for an update to the usual mod, but I miss my adorable little rat colonists.

Also, are they exclusively female like in the basic ratkin mod, or do we see a mix? It was kinda charming to mod in ratkin femboys...

商队来的鼠都是智人种……

Will you make Ratkin Gene Expanded xenotypes?

Thank you! I love the ratkin but not all the gear and other stuff. This is everything I ever wanted.

This is cool, I honestly don't hate HAR and I adore the full Ratkin mod but the original mod is just a lot of content including some fairly OP weaponry and because you can only use that stuff with Ratkin pawns it forces you to play all Ratkins or have a heavy duty mod loaded just for a single colonist

Pulling out the Xenotypes and making them their own independent thing is a great idea and the way all the custom race mods should have gone seeing as the custom races themselves were only used as a stop gap method before Biotech existed

*It does spawn naturally

I don't see it spawn naturally, but the included head type "HeadThree" does not show any eyes. The Character Editor mod defaults to this head type for whatever reason upon setting the Ratkin xenotype.

I iwsh they could use weapons and apparel from the ratkin race but then again I could see why they cant wear/use those

Now somethin' I would love is for there to a option for them to have the vanilla body. I love ratkin but that's like the only real negative for me ): .

당신이 최고야

Nazrin xenotype

So... I ssume this won't work as a replacement for NewRatkin+ for the purposes of all the addon mods like the vehicle one?

thank you for your contribution to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.INC global

FINALLY, waited for this a year or two. Thank you.

finally I can have a femboy ratkin colony like ive always wanted!

Finally, the best race without HAR bloat
Thanks a lot

Now all we need is for another mod to add the factions and items

Finally, the best race without HAR bloat
Thanks a lot

Will you also include all the subtypes and equipment?

좋은 MOD 를 만들었으니 AWARD 를 받아야겠지?

Yeah I've missed the ratkin for a long time. I have biotech but can't make use of HAR easily now adays in my mod list. Also I wasn't a fan of all the custom weapons filling my menus ^^;

Is it compatible with the other ratkin weapons and apparel mods?

酒月丶- It's a Biotech version of just the Ratkin race without all of the other stuff. This is a good option for people that use mods that don't work properly with HAR, but like the aesthetic of the Ratkin.

I don't understand the use of this module, he provides a simplified version of "Ratkin"?

Does this work without HAR and do Facial Animations replace the face with the animated one?

@Seanggag New Ratkin Plus (NRP)?

@MMCCMM First of all, What is NRP?

If I use this mod with NRP, will all the ratkins become xeno or just stay the same (HAR-xeno)?
'cause I want to keep the original while having actual genes
