Insect Caravan Pack & Graze
🌱 MOD Overview 🐜
Want to lead a swarm of insectoids to raid enemy settlements?
This mod is made for players who enjoy that kind of roleplay.
When bringing insectoids into a caravan, you usually face these problems…
✅ They can’t carry packs
✅ Despite being omnivores, they won’t graze on wild plants
✅ Colonists must haul huge amounts of food just to feed them
── Insect Caravan: Pack and Graze solves these issues.
🔷 All insectoids can now graze
→ Tamed insectoids will eat wild plants while pastured or on caravan travel, reducing food burden.
🔷 Selected insectoids can serve as pack animals
→ They can carry inventory for your caravans.
🌟 Features 🌟
🔸 Omnivorous Grazing
Insectoids in your colony are now omnivores and will graze on wild plants during pasture or caravan travel.
(For performance reasons, wild insectoids will not graze.)
This applies globally to the insectoid race, so it also works automatically with insectoids added by other mods.
🔸 Pack Animal Support
The following insectoids are enabled as caravan pack animals:
• Megaspider
• Spelopede
• Royal Spelopede (VFE-I2)
• Megapede (VFE-I2)
• Royal Megaspider (VFE-I2)
• Tankroach (VFE-I2)
• Ironclad (VFE-I2)
🏇 Pack Icon Display
Just like in vanilla RimWorld, the pack icon only shows when the insectoid is actually carrying caravan inventory.
⚠ Notes
Insectoids cannot be tied to the vanilla caravan hitching spot.
Because this is inconvenient, a separate mini-mod is under development to allow tamed insectoids to gather at a dedicated “Insect Caravan Post.”
