Psytech Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I started a colony and I noticed that I wasn't able to put in production orders at the Apothecary for Medical Packs. I did have access to balm lily flours and phosphorite. Is anyone else noticing this? I'm using the playtest branch to check out some of the Atomic stuff.

NewWorldDan Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I have noticed this. Fortunately, the slimelung outbreak was contained by the time they disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens to every slimelung I encounter - it is gone before I notice and have medicine for it... I would really love to notice and awe the slimelung... Now they only eat my compution time without relly affecting my games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a really nasty starting asteroid. I've got some more polishing to do with it, but it'll be on steam workshop in a week or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it's DLC compatible yet, but it's a great way to make diseases be more meaningful again, like they used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am aware of this mod, but it is one of those that never should exist as they should be part of main game. I hope that if we post our feedback frequently enough, KLEI will add menu option to increase germ severity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suicide commando Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I hope so, but when they changed diseases to what they are now, I made a very long and comprehensive rant about why diseases should be more lethal/impactful than they are now, so I think I'll keep it short now. Bring back proper diseases! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psytech Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 So can we confirm that this is an issue with the build or is there a fix if we uninstall and reinstall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can play in the 3-week-update no-testing-branch-selected build (but not the save files you opened while in the testing branch "be aware that once a save is loaded in the Testing branch, it cannot be reopened again in the previous Live branch or previous builds.") until they finish updating the testing branch. When you in the testing branch "it's pretty likely you'll encounter bugs, crashes or balance issues while playing these builds." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EversorDvL Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 I like how noone replied to the question and instead had their say about the fact that bugs are to be expected... I can confirm i cannot build medical packs either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was possible to produce medical packs a couple updates ago but not anymore... (maybe it is still possible but not in the testing branch) Also, there is no cure for zombie spores and disease clinic is non-operational, but everything changes in EA so maybe in a couple updates there will be...? So I don't think it is a bug (..yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorebell Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Poked around the game files and it looks like the slimelung and zombie spore cures are currently assigned to the upcoming nuclear-powered Advanced Apothecary even though it's not in the game yet.

That's fine for the zombie spore cure (if you unleash them, that's your own fault - in 1500 hours, I've never had a dupe contract zombie spores) and radiation sickness. Slimelung can be encountered early on and is most problematic early on when dupes have poor athletics and the slime and polluted water hasn't been contained. It can be worth the effort to make medical packs to cure sick dupes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EversorDvL Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I wonder if radiation somehow reduces germ resistances and will "unlock" a new level of problems once unleashed in the base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
