YOUR Fish Isle! [Stable]
[2023-08-01] MAYOR STABILITY UPDATE. MOD HAS BEEN REWORKED FROM THE GROUND UP.
Summary:
Killing King Gurgler gives you the ability to "buy" (for free) the ruins Fish Isle, and partially rebuilds infastructure (Power, Water).
South Hive Exiles will squat the lab, and are friendly traders. You can however kill them to also "buy" (for free) the lab.
Those hivers are the ones who rebuild the wind generators, the well, and even adds a small unique Hybrid Stone Mine to the city.
So just buying property in fish isle is uniquely useful due to the access to water and building paterials without needing an outpost.
—
Fish Isle, Isle Lab, and the Fishman Island in general have a unique biome, rich in resources, and, of course, incredibly dangerous.
However, due to the insane anti-build radius of the town and outpost, you can never build anywhere expect far north, leaving ~70% blocked off forever for seemingly no reason.
This mod remedies that by adding a new response to the world state of King Gurgler being dead.
In vanilla, it just stops / reduces spawns of fishmen.
With this mod, you will get full ownership of both the ruined town, and the lab.
The 2 "No Build" zones of the island have been massively shrunk, allowing almost the entire island now to allow a player made outpost.
This means you can build anything, (almost) anywhere! Rebuild the buildings, start mining and farming, stay hidden in the ruins, or make an outpost to let everyone know you are there, it’s all up to you!
To fix issues related to their invisible sitting spots, they have been replaced with small fish pile sitting spots instead. This won’t affect gameplay, but will allow you to dismantle what would otherwise have been invisible.
The town overrides by the time you return from the lab, and then returning back to the lab from the town makes it yours too. So you should very quickly be able to build!
As a bonus, the blueprints for fishman items can be found on king gurgler, and are found under "CAMPING" -> "Fish Isle".
It also adds a new fishing net so you can generate thinfish, as the game has those as ingredients for these items, but no way to easily get them other than buying.
It only works in fertile water while raining.
If you do NOT want these building additions, simply do not take the blueprint from his body.
