[DEVBLOG#187] Vanilla Psycasts Expanded - new path art style
Added 2022-04-19 22:11:03 +0000 UTCHey folks!
Welcome to a brand new development blog entry. We've been hard at work on Psycasts Expanded, and majority of the framework is now in place. In fact, we can already see all the UI ingame! The mod is really moving ahead fast.
Legodude, our UI coder, also came up with an amazing way to display unlocked abilities, abilities you can unlock, and locked abilities!
So yeah, you can see I wasn't kidding.
A lot of people however said that the wombo artworks don't really fit RimWorld art style too well. I do kind of agree, but I like them a lot, and I will make sure we have a toggle in mod options that allows you to select them!
But, if you prefer a more 'vanilla' approach, I have created amazing tarot-like cards in RimWorld artstyle.
First lets take a look at old paths:
And now the new!
Yep, much more simple, not some weird psychic nightmares. Please remember: You will be able to change between them whenever you want!
Now lets take a look at some of them up-close!
So yeah, as always, let me know what you think in the comment section, and I will catch you soon, perhaps with a release date for Vanilla Genetics Expanded! We will see!

Will stuff like the synaptic cerebellum from VFE Insectoids be compatible with the new system? Itβs the mutation that increases psycasting abilities.

2022-04-23 08:35:33 +0000 UTCI didn't notice it mentioned in the first post, will these be usable by pawns outside of the colony? This was the biggest dislike I had for vanilla royalty. Be cool to be raided by a Necropath and have them rush to your corpse pile or to ressurrect their fallen party, or protector to remove pain threshold

2022-04-23 07:52:44 +0000 UTCI'd like to comment on the image that displays the unlockable paths. First, it looks beautiful and so does the art representing each tree. Second, the "Unlock" button is oddly in the way of the nice art or card. Maybe it could be moved to the top or bottom? Or perhaps make the name/title of that tree the actual button? Just a thought
2022-04-21 00:13:33 +0000 UTCThis looks unbelievable. Amazing!
2022-04-21 00:06:31 +0000 UTCCan't wait!

2022-04-20 06:05:49 +0000 UTCThe subtly matching alignment of abilities and the general composition of tarot insignia is just ππ

2022-04-20 05:18:07 +0000 UTCI love the Tarot cards. Had no prob with the old style though, still, I'd choose the new cards over the old.
