{You are going to Rebirth}Previous >>539158657>Current version: 1.0.64>Latest important announcement (May 12, 2025)https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/233860/view/509579312492447178>Kenshi 2 Announcement:Soon (tm)>What is Kenshi?"A free-roaming squad based RPG. Focusing on open-ended sandbox gameplay features rather than a linear story.""Be a trader, a thief, a rebel, a warlord, an adventurer, a farmer, a slave, or just food for the cannibals. Research new equipment and craft new gear."https://store.steampowered.com/app/233860/Kenshi/https://www.gog.com/game/kenshi>Demo Linkhttps://lofigames.com/>Tips for beginnersLearn to pick your fights, don't hesitate to run away and don't reload unless you die, any fight you survive makes you stronger. Building an outpost will attract trader caravans and hostile raids. Building one too early might be more than you can handle. Pressing F1 will open the tutorial screen. Mousing over the stats screen and HUD will reveal useful tooltips and additional info. If the enemies feel too difficult - get crossbows for your units. And don't be afraid of the RP autism - engage in it whenever you can. And do unlock the sliders.>https://pastebin.com/zw9fCJdC>Some modshttps://mega.nz/folder/x4d1SLwZ#i09S39AoukUkqYLtHaTWTg>AND a link to the giga muscle-girl modhttps://mega.nz/folder/6ZBmADJK#8uL2GFZYoLgdS6kBV0DJfA>Some moonrune mod archive on the LL Kenshi threadhttps://ux.getuploader.com/hentaibutayarou/index/date/desc/1>LL modding threadhttps://www.loverslab.com/topic/87203-kenshi/>post with jonijonikenshi mods (like milking mod) after he deleted it allhttps://www.loverslab.com/topic/87203-kenshi/page/48/#comment-4050418>LL mod indexhttps://www.loverslab.com/topic/172556-kenshi-mod-index/#comment-3450198>Kenshi Fuck Modhttps://www.loverslab.com/files/file/24433-kenshi-fuck-mod/>The package of optimization mods from Nexushttps://mega.nz/folder/XhERDCRI#37kPAWeA_LKfPTO-qiaY1Q

making a food mod, hoping to release it by octoberwhat food do you think would be fun to add?ingredients are okay too
>>540960635I'll be honest more types of food seems a bit pointless for me cause all these fuckers just go raid the breadbasket first
>>540960635Let's look.Cactus: used in chew sticks, dustwiches, rum.- Arid 100%- Green 0%- Swamp 0%Cotton: inedible. used for fabrics, basically bad hemp.- Arid 0%- Green 100%- Swamp 0%Hemp: inedible. used in fabrics, hashish- Arid 40%- Green 100%- Swamp 50%Rice Weed: used for gohan, rice bowl, sake.- Arid 0%- Green 0%- Swamp 100%Wheatstraw: makes bread, which is used in meatwraps, dustwiches, and foodcubes- Arid 50%- Green 100%- Swamp 0%Green Fruit: used in cooked vegetables, Gohan, food cube - Arid 0%- Green 100%- Swamp 0%Kenshi lacks tubers, maize or any kind of fruit. It doesn't have to be potatoes and corn, it could be ash yams or whatever. Vine fruit is probably best, strawberries or melons or something like that. Orchards are a little fancy. Each can come with a corresponding alcohol; Vodka for tubers, Tequila for maize, wine for fruits, I'd change the name of those first two for immersion. Okra could grow on the moon, but I don't know what you'd do with it or how to meaningfully distinguish it from green fruit, growing in arid I guess. Same for aloe, it could grow in arid but I'm not sure what role it would serve. Good luck anon.
NEW Kenshi food:>bluefruit>fried hiver>sand sandwich>knuckle sandwich (side of justice)>sticky buns (shek flavored)>dried cacti, extra crispy>poison water (it's in the alcohol too, thanks industrial waste)>acidic poison water>edible pain

>>540987382Please give us more to do with raw meat, and some hiver-only food that’s made with spoiled meat.
>>540992917NTA, but you could do some stuff with that. >StewWater+# of Meat, makes a bigass pot with multiple servings one guy can carry around and dole out, good squad food but heavy.>Nasty StewSame but with spoiled meat. Not as nutritional, but makes it edible for non-hivers.>BergurCooked meat+bread+green fruit. Name origin unknown, possibly once made from whatever a horse is. Reduces tone.>Suspichwich/sloppy joeSpoiled meat+bread. Hivers will sell it to you, but only they can eat it. >Rabbit foodGreen fruit+new vegetable/fruit. Low nutrition but increases tone. I'm just spitballing. Playing with your donuts build depending on what they eat seems like a fun space to play with.

If I have a large bounty, can I remove it by turning myself in then escaping later, or does the bounty remain as long as I haven't paid/served my time (forever)
>>541082815
>>541084136I don't think it's possible. I destroyed the United Cities and my bounty shifted from 500k to 5k and that's it.

>>541120960Ah, music man. Hello again.
Quiet hours on /keng/
To this day I can't tell if this was supposed to be a jab against the HN made by a redditor, or some redditor actually 'heard the HN out' and made this "meme".
That boku effect is an amazing cheat for backgrounds.
do animation mods go at the top or bottom of the list? mine are not working after using the mod manager auto sort
>>541150225it's strawmen all the way down so formeryou can see their shek fetishism bleeding through, the ultimate redditor take is that shek are somehow most 'deserving' of inheriting the planet by moral right because hn and uc are hecking slaver chuds and the skeletons had their turn - the shek may be murderous retards but at least they're ~*tolerant*~. also their queen is going to force them to all play patty cake amidst famine and insurrection, trust the plan and two more weeks
>>541150397The what?>>541151534From what I remember - light mods at top, heavy at the bottom. I keep my animations near the bottom, and they work.>>541152483>trust the plan and two more weeksI think you are right. Only redditors are clinically unable to see that the sheks are actively killing their own future by endless chimp outs. If they survive the HN and the UC and the fugmen and the hivers and the fishmen - they'll just start killing each other for bullshit reasons.
>>541160297do you think weapon mods (new weapons dissemination mod) would effect the animation mods?
>>541161348>new weapons dissemination modNever used this one. Gomen.
>>541150225Its clearly a redditor. The lefty meme is too much here.
was too lazy to run to town to sell off loot so I opened to public and instead of traders, a bunch of slavers came and stole all of my bounties out of their cages
>>541170820That is obvious, I was just confused whether he was being a snarky bitch at the HN, or did he somehow agree with their politics.
>Kenshi has rice>Kenshi has no cheeseBoiled rice goes well with sliced cheese. The Kenshians suffer and they don't even know it!
>>541190721trying to add cheese as we speak
>>541190961Uno mano made a mod for cheese. With easy to use milking stations (animations included). No, I spoke about Vanilla Kenshi - I know that Crhis is a tasteless bong, but not giving Kenshians CHEESE of all things is too retardedly cruel.
>no tomatoes>no ketchupImagine such life on Kenshi...

>>541208281We live and die by our choices anon,, seems like they made theirs. Just patch them up when they pass out and pick them up, maybe they're just am obstinate lazy slave.

on the verge
Are crossbows good weapons? I see that early on there's a chance of hitting one of your squad on accident and wonder if it's worth the risk.
Combat cleavers leglocking skeletons tightly and gently milking them of their limbs
Is there a bug that fixes ai robotics behavior where they just try to pick up literally EVERYTHING that's in the robotics crate instead of the items they need, and get stuck?
>>541215425They are good, but the only way to train precision shooting is to hit your own guys. Grab the shittiest Junkbow you can to train so any damage you will take is minimal. The stagger will be really annoying, but there's nothing to be done about that. Once they git gud you can upgrade their bows, until then think of it as training their crossbowmanship and everyone else's toughness at the same time. Do not give someone with low precision a big bad bow, they will kill your melee guys. I tend to train one bowman at a time to avoid a mass friendly fire incident. If you don't want to train precision Green in the swamp starts out with excellent bow skills.
>Call the police>But not for meThat was a close one, my guys were softened up quite a lot by crab raiders.
The world belongs to us.
>>541230472They're probably the only npcs who will never stop chasing you. Probably a bug.
>>541231697indeed
why don't the skeletons use crypto or their own parts as currency instead of catswhat the hell is a cat anyway... are they just little bits of metal with a square hole punched through?who made them, the UC or second empire? why can't you make a 'cat crafting station' where laborers spend all day clipping coins out of iron plates? it doesn't look like special graded metal or anything, your average mouthbreather wouldn't know the difference in a counterfeit. I haven't seen any sort of minting facility in the UC, they have a bank in trader's edge but it's more storage than anything... is there anything in the ports or stone camps? It seems strange that there are so many culturally/geographically different groups but everyone agrees on one standardized currency, especially when the UC's whole deal are being vampires who manipulate their economic leverage ruthlessly... their money should mean nothing in the HN
>>541215230My eyes go and remain at the center of the screenshot.>>541215425Broken if used manually. Useless if you auto-pilot the battles. Harmful if you have yellow crossbows and don't care about your troops' placement.>>541215465Nani?>>541216460A bug fix? For the Bong Code? Sounds like a luxury feature.>>541230472That is a nice axe!

>>541268670Ignore that xanax addicted creature. He knows he is wrong. He just wants your attention.
You guys put up with vanilla animal hunger?My bone dog since becoming Elder now needs raw meat every 4 minutes.
>>541282423I have better bonedogs but I leave them at the base where there's a lot of food and people limbs. Besides elder bonedogs do way too much damage too fast so I feel cheap using them to fight.
>>541282423The game has "import", so I thankfully can choose if I want to suffer or be busy with something actually fun. And yes, animals eat too much.
>>541282423You're too poor if food is an issue.
>>541259462Cats likely come from the Second Empire since it appears they're named after Cat-lon, there's no other reason they would be called cats after all. Since every faction in game descends from the Second Empire splitting apart, they all kept cats as their currency.>their money should mean nothing in the HNProbably not. Factions still trade between each other. The Trader's Guild is working with everybody, the Phoenix actually doesn't appreciate it if you bring him Longen. Everyone might just use cats for convenience, and anyone trying to counterfeit gets punished hard, if it's even possible to counterfeit. Maybe the Second Empire produced every cat there will ever be and no more is made now, the cat printers are all gone. It's not like the world of Kenshi experiences enough population growth to notice and most of the world is broke.
>>541291774Remind me - has the game ever mentioned where the cats are being minted?
>>541291774Nevermind, I read too fast.On a side note - it'd be nice to visit the ancient mints. Or even discover that the cats are being made in "this" day still by Caitlyn's headless slaves, in the Ashlands.
>>541300509Cats aren't MONEY they're CREDITS. They (were) digitally connected to the colonial management system and are the way in which the satellite network engaged with regional-local-specific interactions. This is also why the area is wholly centralized around the island. The satellites are in geostationary lock and can only see & interact with what's below them. Much of the network is destroyed but the signals can still reach the surface (just look at the mining lasers running).

>>541317370It serves my infantry units quite well.
>>541291238>Too poorI feed it skimmer meat. It just it's a butt ton of it in a play session.
There will never be another Kenshi>really internalize thatThe mythical Asians and autists who could have not and seemingly will not bring it into being. That is to say the cultural climate which led to the creation of Kenshi is completely gone. The spirit of indie game development has been buried under corpo slop and quick fixes. The biggest mistake LoFi has made was announcing they were working on Kenshi 2. No, you should've announced it once you had something to show. Screwed yourselves into vaporware territory.
>>541317370Worse protection than Samurai armor, but that's like the majority of the game. Doesn't hurt your offenses as much which can come in handy. You can deal with that 70% stomach protection with some chainmail.
>>541323889kenshi can be recreatedThe sims 2, WoW, Vampire Bloodlines and Republic: The Revolution are exemples of games that can't be recreated
>>541325561I find stomach is one of the biggest weaknesses for humans at least, I like my current outfit but I had to switch to a top with 100% protection cause even with a masterwork leather turtleneck, imperfect top coverage was getting me gutted way too much. Still, fashion's important.
>>541325795Can and will not. There are dozens of WoW clones.
>>541329083No game replicates 2004 wow
>>541329945Yeah because that era is gone. Anyone could recreate WoW nowadays - private servers are a couple years away from a total rewrite of vanilla to push the legal Ship of Theseus to the brink. You will never get 2004 WoW again because it already happened, the people grew up and the culture changed. The all-star devs from Blizzard moved on and the industry in general has lowered the barrier to entry and shifted priorities so significantly it's barely reminiscent of the 2000s landscape and looks nothing like pre-online distributors. Steam & early access means there's no going back to that world.

>>541341060He made it back to the nearby farming village and dispatched the beak things with their turrets, but the success went to his head, he picked a fight with a bonedog and got chewed up in moments. So ends his solo journey, but he made it close enough to my outpost to be rescued in minutes.
>>541342487In his defense the bonedog was very wounded so one or two good hits should have done the job. He did not get them in.
I've never reached the late game in Kenshi.But I wonder: is there some kind of mechanic to keep the player alert and prevent (or at least delay) them from creating a perfect, self-sufficient "machine" that eliminates all the difficulties presented by the game?
>Fog mask blueprint just refuses to materialize at the scraphouseWhat the fuck's your problem, game.>>541344678Boredom, probably.
>>541344678As the other anon said, bordeom and lack of goals left. This happens to a lot of pause-progress explore and grow type games. Stellaris throws mid game and late game crises at the galaxy to try and keep things going. Eventually you've achieved the campaign goals, researched everything relevant, beaten your major foes and can purchase anything you desire. Kenshi runs out of steam in the mid game and has no true late game written in. It could, but it does not, because Chris was generally satisfied with the scratching the surface approach.
>>541323889>There will never be another Kenshimount and blade only needs to lock hard as fuck in and they could do it, rimworld and dwarf fortress too>>541291774>the Phoenix actually doesn't appreciate it if you bring him Longenhappens with multiple heads of state actually, i think tinfist and esata have similar dialogue for certain characters like tengu/the phoenix, nice detail

>>541361436a kenshi-adjacent would-be-game, i mean
>>541362078Huh, I mean sure but the IP isn't theirs. They have their own lane cult hits they'd do better to focus on. Mechanically a kenshi-like could be made easily enough but without the setting it'd never be kenshi.
>>541362245it could go it's own way like the totally different sequel to not bloodborne that is being developed at the momentkenshi's setting boils down to (oriental) post apocaliptic (space) medieval ages, take that and spin it around a bit, add and remove what you like and don't while keeping the core idea and gameplay focusproject kathun showed me how well it could integrate into the starwars universe, imagine if it was made by a triple A as some sort of rpg open world sandbox rtsgranted it'd go to shit like any triple A nowadays, but i wish to see the vision
>>541363003Kenshi's setting is a bit more than that, desu. It feels very unique even if the individual elements aren't, and the art direction carries. Any pretender would need to do some amazing work to be more than a knockoff.
>0.5 seconds after entering Sonorous DarkHaha I'm in danger
>>541362245>set in texas after ww3>all modern technology lost>back to pike and shot era>various factions arose to recolonize the world>americans vs mexicans vs natives vs blacks vs jews>hunt for artifacts which give you access to lost tech>base building upgraded to whole cities>rovers,ships and tanks>families and dynasties for long term storytelling>deeper diplomacy system with tribute,vassals,alliances and non-aggression pacts>scenario editor connected to community creations>Europe and Asia DLC
>>541365392>families and dynasties for long term storytellingIf you implement this, you'll sacrifice the world's characterization, which could ruin the first 50 hours of gameplay.To compensate, you'd have to implement more social aspects, which in turn would draw resources from other areas.A Kenshi-like need a fixed world
>Jumped the Savant to steal his MeitouMan that was rough, my guys were able to take care of his 6 skinbots but he beat my leader in their duel and took out 3 of the others before he finally fell. I left him an Edge 3 Nodachi in exchange and made sure not to pick him up so as not to trigger the worldstate.
>>541367107>A Kenshi-like need a fixed worldParadox games already do this. Rigid map, bounded possibilities. Chapters can be set to a net timeline so you can enter at various stages of set progression. From there time-based events can be synchronized to upcoming dates and use the standard mean time to happen method for triggering important events / crises.
I kind of with defeating the HN or the UC would unleash hordes of dangerous enemies to replace them, what stops me from every doing big worldstate changes is that you remove a source of powerful enemies each time.
>>541372180My theory was to use what exists and go further. Cannibals can slow roll into a wider takeover of the north. If all else fails and nothing changes they prod at the defenses until able to capture locations such as World's End. In the case of a HN or UC collapse / retreat from Bast the opportunity then presents itself for a faction group like the Cannibals to opportunistically aggressively expand into the void and emplace themselves for potential further gains.Scenarios can chain until you reach outcomes such as the Cannibals marching down behind Flotsam and consuming their gains right up to Blister Hill if there's no serious effort made or available by the UC to assert control over the region. It's one thing after another. I'm a particularly big proponent of transforming & multiplying bandit factions if they find too little pushback and too much success. Reactive World explores the case in which the Dust Bandits splinter into multiple factions. All the same a "thriving" Dust Bandits could undergo a split into two powerful bandit factions if say they manage to capitalize upon a breakdown of order in the southern HN. One group aligns with the slavers emanating from the UC hungry to capture the mines - the other side prefers to maintain their ability to freely & independently harass and extort the locals.
>>541373372Cannibals are a shit endgame enemy even if they make sense. Barely stronger than fogmen. The faction would need an overhaul with a real leader and actual armor and equipment.
>>541365392>americans vs mexicans vs natives vs blacks vs jews/pol/ would love such game.>>541364659Robots are pushovers, but the spiderbots don't stagger. Why Chris made animals so strong?>>541371986>ParadoxI am suddenly thankful to Chris that he didn't sell each game's faction separately as a DLC.>>541371586I thought the world will be fine if a character wakes up before you live the loaded zone chunk?>>541373968>an overhaul with a real leader and actual armor and equipment."Cannibals extended" or something, a mod on Steam.
>>541374141>I thought the world will be fine if a character wakes up before you live the loaded zone chunk?Sometimes, but once I got attacked by Lady Tsugi and she chased me a fair bit away from brink. I knocked her out and picked her up, then released her. She returned to the reaver version of brink and stood there aimlessly watching the ruins of her city. I try not to take chances because of it.
I have a problem with this game. I really enjoy the early gaming, it's a real adventure going from getting beat by hungry bandits to be able to massacre cannibals and fogmen. But once I start the midgame and I have to build a clunky base, the game gets boring to me. My characters are hard to kill and things like money and gear stops being an issue.
>>541374141>Robots are pushoversOh I can beat most of them 1v1 but they outnumber us and they'll carry us off if we fall. Had another extremely close call and the one thing that saved me was Agnu staying alive and sniping the kidnappers, barely got my companions lose before they made it to their outpost. I was not ready for sonorous dark, my equipment is good and my combat stats are good but I haven't gone out of my way to train any stats except strength. Thankfully we all kept our skin.
>>541378078Then don't build a clunky base? Try different means of making money that don't involve crafting heart protectors. Keep a small crew, or multiple small units.
>>541378536I's hard to put into words. I think the game is very balanced in the early game because it's actually hard to progress, but once you hit the mid game that balance is gone. Even without a base, it's just too easy to make money and buy things. And when you have bigger squads or multiple smaller squads, the game changes completely.
>>541378997Nah I get you honestly, but when things are like that it's up to you to balance your experience. I stopped my first playthrough because I trained a lot of my guys to 90 toughness and we were shredding anything we came across. So this time I only trained strength because it's the only stat that doesn't level naturally in a sensible way. I did sell too many heart protectors though, if I do another playthrough I think I won't sell crafts, at least not higher than certain quality.Another issue is companion bloat, but I've limited myself to only uniques this time, and some slaves for base labor only (not trained, not well equipped, just background NPC). As for base building, I don't do double gates or water gates, and I've had a few exciting raids as a result. I'm gonna move somewhere more dangerous soon.
>>541378078Might want to give the mod Legendary of Kenshi a try.
>>541363003>“Bruh, this mod integrates so well into Kenshi”>“It’s like _____ was always part of the lore”>“______ totally fit the vibe & immersive”>“Keeps the core gameplay, adding depth”Every time someone duct tapes a franchise onto Kenshi, the same NPC chorus shows up. Slap clone armor & lightsabers on a hiver "it’s seamless.” Add rando aliens "wow, just like kenshi ppls"
>>541378997Embrace the Fashion Souls. Find your own fun in Kenshi.>>541381354Do you also oppose mixing of ketchup and mayo?
>>541378997Kenshi's problem is growth is exponential rather than linear. Things spiral pretty crazy as your characters get stronger and you have more money or skills to get top tier gear. This wouldn't be so bad if enemies were stronger, but only a handle of factions are really that challenging in the endgame.

The virgin POLICE vs the chad Protect Master
>>541387664I wish they wouldn't get reset on world import, and that it was easier to keep them in a skeleton repair bed.
>>541381828I was a bit harsh but anything added to Kenshi gets that reaction. Its setting blends future, past, alien world/life. “Buzz Lightyear, Mater & Wall-E fit perfectly, its like it just belongs in Kenshi. . .” Kathun’s fine but limited, very few wordstates. I also dislike most armor & race designs visually.
>>541389925So you are just a hardline vanilla man. Naruhodo.As for those mods - some of them do look like they blend with Kenshi seamlessly. 2B exists on a dead world. Her being isekai'd onto Kenshi "fits" because she came from a dead world to a world where humanity is barely alive but is actively trying to kill itself. It'd be tragic for her. That's how 2B "fits". Having Buzz Lightyear in Kenshi for shits and giggles is daijobu. But if anyone says that he "fits" - I'd assume that someone is bullshitting me.

Mods for in depth slavery and rape?
>>541395537>usual Tuesday on KenshiAsk the Asians and the Slavs. They have the best mods for such playthroughs. The mods are hidden from the global audience, naturally.
>>541395537Took me way too long to spot the blowjob.
>>541395673What armor's the guy using?
>>541396368No idea, saved this screenshot from Twitter around 2020.
>>541395673Where do i find such people?
>>541397346Somewhere in the Internet. They have both the finest coom mods, and the most subtle vanilla+ creations. Derr Coomer has most of them, but he isn't around anymore.
>>541395782That man is playing cards with an increased difficulty.

It annoys me that the HN has a reason for everything they believe in (hating shek, skeletons, and technology in general) but their dislike of women is seemingly arbitraily tacked on for the sake of making them look more evil
>>541408995Nat's personal touch. Traditional societies do demand the women to be modest, and be busy with the home - while remaining inside the home most of the time, But none such societies went around the streets to pick random women to burn alive because of the "she looked at me - it means she is a WHORE!" logic.That "whore" has a father and brothers - peasants and warriors in most cases. No priestood - regardless how high on their own farts - would actively (and pointlessly) make the majority of the population hate them like this just for shits and giggles.
>>541408995I think the idea is supposed to be that men are more disposable and serve explicitly as warriors while women tend to traditional domestic roles to keep the population stable, so if a woman is wandering around as an adventurer instead of pregnant in a cottage somewhere she's being 'wasted' and is probably deluded/a foreigner/an evil whoreeven as recently as the 1800s a woman wearing pants would be ridiculed and mocked
Quiet EU hours on /keng/
No desire to play Kenshi. Time to suffer in War Thunder.
My inability to aim reminds me that I am a skeleton. I hate being old. At least there is no aiming in Kenshi.
>reactive worldWhat is so reactive about it? I beat all the factions hostile to the Holy Nation. But they the Holy Nation will not expand outside its core territory. And the bars seem kinda empty.
>>541438664There is a mod on Gabenshop, "holy crusade" or something. The HN goes far away from their borders.
>cannibal raid has arrived>look back over to base>the entire group spawned inside the wallswell what's the fucking point then?
who the fuck is this guy
>>541438664Reactive World doesn't explore Holy Nation expansionism. It instead does the opposite and pad outs the collapse of the HN into a sequence which resolves to hunting down the last remnants of the HN. It also splits up all the Cannibal tribes so there's more iteration to taking them down. Started some ideas, didn't quite weave them in everywhere. A HN-allied run in Reactive is kinda non-ideal.
i have gotten so brainrotted that today i had a dream that there was a leak of kenshi 2's development (being honest it looked like the current one but with extra qol shit, bigger map and a hd filter)before i could post them on this place the website and image archival where the leaks were found got 404'di didn't even play that much kenshi these last days, wtf
>>541442202I saw my dead grandmother from the night of yesterday to today. Brain can be weird sometimes, ignore it.
>>541441456Did you somehow build your base around a cannibal spawnpoint in the Cannibal Plains
>>541447475I'm on the border of the hidden forest and northern coast, nestled in the canyon there (made it outside of the road by checking the navmesh)I suspect that despite the terrain being perfect for defense I'm still going to have to build a fuckhuge enclosure wall to stop this from happening, kind of a letdown since half the reason I settled there was the bottleneck
>>541385678a-anyone? I even attached some random video I made to not get ignored...
>>541448629I've just never had anything like it happen so I guess it must be the precise location
>>541448742Sorry anon I dunno, have you tried importing? you probably already did...
>>541385678Gomen. Didn't reply because I think you were Bong Coded. There is no cure.
>>541451573shadows also looked fucked up everywhere with only a couple of buildings because the mountains cast so many shadowsI only needed an early-midgame farm, but wanted to avoid holy nation seeing my hemp despite being allied with them - looked it up and they don't actually care about hemp plots, only hash, so I'm just going to move to okran's valley and write off the wasted time
>>541453023Yeah people don't care about hempI have a lot of hemp plots in the UC where it's actually illegal but I've only gotten one samurai sergeant ask for a 2k caps bribe, once.
>>541448742import first, if its still broken try re-verifying game files. If you have rekenshi installed, you will have to reinstall that and whatever else too though.
>>541453803>>541452568the problem is always when starting the game, a way to "fix it" is to go all the way to the holy nation/somewhere south there and then come back, then the city is properly rendered, but I wonder why this happens.I hope someone can try that>start with boy and his dog>directly go to world's end from there>city is not properly renderedI tried "fixing the game files"I even uninstalled and reinstalled the gameCan anyone here try that so I confirm is not an issue with my pc?>>541452986>Bong Codedwhat's that?
>>541385678something akin to this happened to me when i try to go to the foglands, even when modless, there's a small corner of the foglands that puts me into LOADING... hell no matter whatbongcode is strong with this one, my only ideas:-import and rest squad position-check if it may be something with distant towns, for some reason that option has caused more problems than it fixes, disable if possible-check the game mods folder (not the workshop one, the mod folder inside the game files)if nothing works at that point just uninstall everything and give up, play rimworld instead
If I import a save with the NPC revival option, does it not restore them if they're alive, but were turned in for a bounty? I had to destroy the cult village a second time but the priest was nowhere to be found. I would have liked a second meitou but it's no big deal, mostly curious.
One thing I really do like about Kenshi is that unlike most games with crime systems, enemies don't magically recognize you immediately and telepathically warn everyone in the base to go after you. You can just walk into a town with a large bounty on your head and there's a good chance no one will notice.
A think I'm sad about kenshi is not having a "reproduction system", like deciding to buy a pair of goats, somehow getting milk from them, and if you have a male and female, then they reproduce and you get more goats (same with dogs/bulls/etc).
>>541466776Animal husbandry is a huge missed opportunity. Like, the fact we can't saddle and mount bulls & beak things or turn a leviathan into a mobile battle tank (war elephant, crossbowmen mounted platform), big sad. Yeah, we don't need wheeled vehicles, we need the ability to climb onto animals before worrying about roads, boats, aircraft, whatever.
>>541466776There's an animal husbandry mod.
>>541467215yep, if theres one thing i want in kenshi II more than anything else, its definitely mounts & mounted combat. Doubt we'll see it though.
>>541472089I'm thinking of kenshi 2 something more like yanderedev, I haven't seen if there's anything done at all.I hope I'm wrong...The thing I really expect from kenshi 2 is to have a separated chat window, so I can notice when my pawns on the other side of the world are being talked by some rando, before i realize they are being attacked when the fight could be totally evaded by talking to the npc calling you out.
>>541472496Keeping low expectations is one thing, but you have to be retarded to compare yanderedev to someone who already made Kenshi 1.
>>541475967you are right, that was retarded, maybe I should hope it's not some new Peter Molyneux then, but again I can't compare with that either, because I haven't read anything about the new story/gameplay/features that may come in the new game.Last thing I saw was some burly 3d models done somewhere (maybe maya) and the dude eating some asian dish. I don't know if there has been any updates about the development of it.
>>541465180Yeah that's a little weird, I think only bounty hunters care.
>>541495001Not even bounty hunters will immediately recognize you. But guards can and sometimes do.
>>541465180I find it funny when I suddenly see the dialogue>"wait a minute">"ESCAPING SLAVE!"and then a fight ensues.some times this happens when the slaves for whatever reason pile out in one point outside the city, then they become escaped slaves and such. They just stay there... standing doing nothing...
Wish there were mode sidearm type weapons, it feels like the only one worth using is the Katana. Longsword is kinda ass, and short cleaver is good despite the tiny reach, but it weighs more than most big swords. I put a meito ninja blade on my runner because it weighs zero but it feels like it doesn't suit him too much.
what the black dragon ninjas see peering at them through a Makeshift Gate (there was no money or food inside and now there will soon be money and food inside)
Do NPCs generally abide by public/private gates in outposts? I want to partition off part of my town so there's a public market and then my actual base but without a bunch of retarded nomads waddling in the way of blueprints. I ask because even setting buildings to private gets ignored half the time.
>>541504638I saw some visitor who started beating the shit out of a door because "he wanted to enter for whatever reason", he became a criminal for that and I got a bounty from the police.That was on vanilla btw.I think it was because "I put my house in the road"
>>541455012>what's that?A curse of Chris being a bong. It's a meme that explains why Kenshi is so badly coded. Try to delete your game, format your harddive, and then download Kenshi again.>"This is ridiculous!"Yeah. That's how Bong Code works. Feel free to go to Bongland to castrate Chris for his sins against computer hardware.>>541453434>one samurai sergeant ask for a 2k caps bribe, once.RNG is nice to you.>>541457639Importing places the NPCs back on the initial places. Or it should do it at least.
They always say Rebirth is cum spraying up from the penis (Okran's Valley) but I think it's supposed to be more of a distended stomach that contains Okran's Children: sinners are rebirthed there into dutiful laborers. Penis head clearly points down anyway. The ashen limestone all over Rebirth misleads people, especially when they see a stark white landscape above Okran's Valley on the map.This raises the question of how Okran could both have a fertile penis and be pregnant with slaves. The contrast and cycle of death and life is recurring in Okranite scripture, so I don't think this is a mistake or overreaching, it's more evidence that at one point Okran (or Chitrin) was worshiped as a non-traditional sexually fluid deity. These places are thousands of years old.Okran's Shield almost assuredly being his (shamefully repressed and hidden) anus becomes even more glaring with this re-contextualization, as well as Blister Hill being sat upon the pubis and Bad Teeth precariously RIGHT below the genitals. Why the hell else would it even be called Bad Teeth? They don't have extra bars or more dangerous animals there or anything. It HAS to be referring to teeth scraping the head during oral sex, as well as sexually-transmitted diseases such as blistered herpes.I suppose HN is in essence a fertility cult and the writers for the game (read: a white woman) would find it hilarious for the deus vult LARPers to not only unknowingly worship a robot, but a tranny robot. It is the ultimate subversion of the faction and its problematic culture. People only caught the skeleton aspect in Stobe, not the part that also lances them for their mistreatment of women. Their entire religion was an allegory for their own toxic masculinity and repression, unironically. Okran was a faggot who flipped out so hard he de-transitioned and turned MAGA and electroshocked his gay memories away to cope. Feels bad man.>mfw I stroll in from the border zone and okran greets me with her warm light

Any site for uncensored mod?
Is there any reason to use a spring bat over something like an OW MkII?Cause it says it's meant to use against armor but I don't believe crossbows have any specific armor piercing stat modifier, just raw damage. Pic unrelated.

>>541516869Loverslab>>541518828This woman eats nothing but protein bars and drinks nothing but protein shakes. Must be a warp entity spawned by /fit/. As for any weapons in Kenshi - go with the Fashion Souls. Kenshi is piss easy anyway.>>541519894Turrets in general are poorly implemented. Chris should have made them unable to hit friendlies, I believe. Otherwise the NPCs hurt each other much more than player's characters.

1 week in, real sad that mogwai shat on all his mods and we lost race compats. but it's quite swell otherwise
what do you think about the gecko and fungi race mods? I recruited parass and he might be too OP as a tank
>>541543882>geckoinfinite free recruits, instant cheese, but atleast it adds some factions to chase you around too, so as long as you don't exploit it (like 99% of things in this shitass game) they're okay>fungoidsnowadays i play with fungoids expanded, they seemed more balanced (specially since you can't get king pico for free anymore)you can also get infinite free recruits with this, but at least now you can't guarantee it since they're so rare (and start with 0 stats), and they're slow, so while they tank more damage, they really can't make a break for it if they have to
Gacha RNG is being mean to me today. I am almost glad Chris never had a bright idea to make a gacha spin-off of Kenshi.
You are never safe from the Lady Quasimodo, drifters.
>>541562850>Chris never assed himself to give the characters a simple ability to close their eyesEven the Toddslop has it. What the hell Chris?!

>>541563692For (You) that would be the most horrifying day of your life. For that slaver it is Tuesday.
I've been making economy legs and arms to give idiot slavers that accidentally picked a fight with my outpost (they came to raid but decided to leave and someone shot them)
outpost spent two days incinerating pristine river raptor carcasses while they starved because nobody was foraging them to cook with (because the raw meat storage never got built) (because its blueprints pixels had sheared into another blueprints pixels by 1 cm and it was considered inaccessible to construct)
>>541566864Sounds like you messed up, leader. Hand over command to the Shek.
