Hussar Vanilla race reworked ][ xenotype redalga
[b] Addressing the most controversial addition first: [/b]
KIND?????
[b]YES, but don't take it literally![/b]
What 'kind' gene does is prevents them from insulting other pawns,
and prevents losing opinion because of ugliness or disfigurement.
[b] Isn't that exactly what you would want from an engineered soldier?[/b]
They must not hate each other,
They must not hate any civilian,
They must not insult anybody. Dot.
[b]Their aggression is only retaliatory.[/b]
If xenotype engineers have an option to use this gene, there is' zero to none reasons not to.
(You can argue in the comments, but I had half a year to think this through and you won't change my mind)
p.s. I planned to make this gene optional, but no longer.
Now moving on to other additions
[b]Super Immunity (150138%)[/b] - I think everyone expected it? Didn't you? I would have sticked to strong immunity (110%), But Major cell instability kinda nerfs it to the ground.
[b] Major Cell instability [/b] - What it does is:
1. lifespan factor x60% shortens the age for old age diseases(Pawns don't die from old age in this game)
2. Cancer Rate Factor x500%
3. Immunity gain speed x92% (150% * 92% = 138% Still huge)
Why?
Hussars are meant to be soldiers only. And soldier is expandable in the long run.
During xenotype engineering a flaw like this would most likely happen. And there are [b]NO REASONS[/b] to fix it.
[b] Fast wound healing [/b] - Xenotype was made by humans. Lets leave [b]Super fast wound healing[/b] to designed by an [u]Archotech[/u] [b] Sanguophages[/b]
it's a mater of ratio.
[b]Fast runner[/b] - it's not that hard to increase move speed of a person. And it's essential in warfare. Not only for running fast but also for tolerance to heavy armor.
[b]Strong Stomach[/b] - The reason why, comes packed with [b]super strong immunity[/b]. They must not get sick.
You can't guarantee the length and exodus of a battle, and you can't guarantee a supply of MREs to every soldier.
If a soldier is stuck somewhere for days, he still should be able to perform as best as he can as long as he is alive.
[b]Slow learning / Poor intelectual [/b] - Hussars are engineered for one purpose, and that doesn't only mean that they have to excel i that purpose.
It also means that they must not see other alternatives in life.
Their mind is meant to [b]work fast[/b] with trained and deeply integrated skills. But reasoning, curiosity, reflection and all that similar must be reduced.
[b] Ugly [/b] - [i]'They are famous for their blood-red eyes and "hussar stare", a dead expression that unsettles many people.'[/i] - in-game description.
They do have red eyes, but it doesn't seem like they unsettle any people. So here is the fix:)
And remember, they don't hate each other because of the 'kind' gene.
[b] Low Libido [/b] - Soldier's chance to ever have sex is close to zero. Why would you want them to even think about it? Same goes for kids. They shouldn't even think about family.
I also made them sterile, but it's an optional patch(Link below). Because many people would hate it here, and many would like it separate from this rework.
Removed genes:
[b]Super fast wound healing[/b] - nerfed to just [b]'fast wound healing'[/b]
[b]Terrible Plants[/b] - Yes there is a reason as to why they should be bad in plants, but there is also no possible way to explain [b]HOW[/b] can they be bad at plants.
[b]Terrible animals[/b] - Same as plants but this time a bit arguable, yes maybe red eyes might scare animals, somehow. But I don't buy it.
(My favorite hussar is an AWOL soldier who is a 'plants' nerd:)
[b]Short hair only [/b] - Soldiers should actually be bald. But if they can grow hair, nothing should stop them from growing it long.
(Also as far as I noticed this gene prevents them from having even SHORT hairstyles from other mods.
[b]SO it's a QoL[/b]

This mod is a PATCH and therefore it's compatible with everything. Error-wise
