Quarians!
This mod adds the quarian race to your Rimworld game. It is designed to work alongside the Mass Muffect Races mod by TasRook. This is rather bare-bones to be honest, but it gets the basics down, I think.
FEATURES:
– Male and female quarians with their own namelists
– Some unique quarian backstories
– A quarian faction that spawns in the world and can send caravans and the like- although be careful, as this faction can be hostile too.
CHARACTERISTICS:
– Quarians are given a very wide temperature tolerance, to the point that you’d have to find some truly extreme conditions for them to get heatstroke or hypothermia. This is due to them essentially wearing a climate-controlled spacesuit everywhere.
– Quarians can move slightly faster than humans, due to their legs being better-suited to high-speed running.
– They are generally more slightly-built than humans, and thus are worse at melee combat. They are also a bit easier to injure.
There are 18 child backstories and 28 adult backstories. Among their settlements and in your colony, you can find quarians who have left the fleet on their pilgrimages, others who have been exiled or taken as slaves by aliens, and even some who decided to leave the fleet for some reason or other. You can find farmers from the agricultural ships, mining ship crewmembers, and former ship captains as well.
CREDITS: I am terrible at coding and the like, so it’s fairly obvious that this mod couldn’t exist without the assistance of others. I’d like to give a massive thank you to TasRook, the creator of the Mass Muffect Races mod (link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1505812538), for graciously allowing me to modify their backstories and code for adding in races.
I’d also like to thank Shinzy, the creator of Apparello 2 (link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=728381322), for allowing me to use their textures of quarian helmets. If not for them, you’d have to look at whatever hideous drawings I produced for helmets, and I guarantee that would likely scar you for life.
Both of these mods are excellent additions to your Rimworld game, and I highly recommend that you check them both out!
WARNING: I give absolutely no promises about maintaining this mod. It may be that a future update will break this, and that is rather unfortunate. Unless something actually annoys me enough to change it, I likely won’t do much with this because i’m rather busy and have little to no knowledge of or real interest in mod development and maintenance. That being said, I may provide updates if a particularly galling issue comes to light. Also, if anyone wishes to perform bugfixes or add features then feel free to, just make sure to credit me and the people whose work also appears in this mod. Also, if you do so, I’d appreciate a link to your mod!
