Hey everyone and welcome to another devblog. The work on Pigskin xenotype is wrapping up and we are slowly progressing to release. The mod has just now entered testing on our testing discord, which you can join by following the link below:

The development has been quite smooth - we did not encounter any major hiccups. There was however one gene we had to remove - Litterbirth. Turns out that changing the amount of children born requires a very complex transpiler - and there already is a mod out there adding litter births. The issue is, we would have to essentially make the same transpiler ourselves, and there is only one way to do it, so even though it isn't theft, I'm sure some of the people would treat it as such.

I have tried reaching out to the mod author that made it but to no avail.

As such, for now we're removing litterbirth from the Pigskin mod.

The rest was relatively easy to do, so we're now turning our focus to the Insector xenotype - the full list of mechanics and genes will soon drop on Patreon for you to see.

While we're on the subject of Insectoids, I will also be posting a Suggestions thread about what you'd like to change in Vanilla Factions Expanded - Insectoids. I have some big plans to clean up the mod, but I'm interested in seeing what you would like to see in that mod.

Now, let me post the infographics for pigskins. Next step is making cool screenshots, and then proceeding to release!

Maybe you could make it compatible with the mod so that if it’s installed it will automatically give the gene to pigskins. Unless that was what you were reaching out to them about Also, do butchering pawns with pork flesh count as cannibalism? It would certainly be nice for pigskin farming colonies if it wasn’t

Come little piggies, the slaughterhouse awaits.

Hmm. Does the new precept apply solely to Pigskins, or to any xenotype with Organ Regeneration? Also, I adore the implications of the Rapid Aging gene. Cloning entire battalions of supersoldiers in just over a quadrum? Righteous!

Soooo.... When they become not useful anymore (lack of ability to fight) they will become a dinner? Damn. Harsh reality... Tasty though...

Damn. The ideology addon is a neat suprise!

Making entirely new heights of war crimes possible!

Great Race Mod and the artwork is beautiful. :) I really like the split between normal pigskins and the like a warrior class of boarskins. And the added precept is really cool. Well done :)

Looking great, very excited for this one. One question: You mention that pawns with porkflesh will consider human and pork meat cannibalism. Any plans to allow it so that they're ok with human meat but treat pork as cannibalism (pigskin supremacy)? Perhaps via a precept.

How does the "Organ Regenration" transfer into in-game years? With other words: How many HP does the average organ feature? With other other words: If I would harvest a liver from my pigskin employee (which I obviously would never do!), how long would it take to regrow the organ so I can harvest & sell ... *err* save another life?

thank you but i don‘t think poor shooting is a good idea.
