Welcome to Jimothy's Archite Genes!
[b]This mod requires Jimothy's Genes, and adds archite extension of the following genes:[/b]
- Lifespan Genes
- Growth Point Genes
- Learning Rate Genes
[b]Lifespan Genes[/b]
Doesn't affect aging, so you can have someone who's in their biological 360s or even over 400 with these. Has metabolism gain/cost.
These require Alite's Expanded Biotech Style Genes mod to be present, otherwise they won't appear in-game: [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3020821838]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3020821838[/url]
[b]Growth Point Genes[/b]
These increase the rate of growth point gain, not learning rate. 2 archite gain/cost per level, since based on testing this is... pretty powerful, to say the least.
These require the EBSG framework to be present, otherwise they won't appear in-game: [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3112549163]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3112549163[/url]
[b]Learning Rate Genes[/b]
This specifically affects childhood learning rate, the stat affecting growth points, NOT skill learning rate. 2 archite gain/cost per level.
[b]Dodge and Hit Chance Genes[/b]
Does as says on the tin, but don't trust the numbers because Rimworld math is weird (post-processing curves, minimums etc), so even a character with 400% dodge chance, 400% hit chance and level 20 melee can still fail to dodge or land hits.
These require Alite's Expanded Biotech Style Genes mod to be present, otherwise they won't appear in-game: [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3020821838]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3020821838[/url]
[b]Archite Immunity Genes[/b]
Increase immunity gain speed, [i]and can be used alongside regular immunity and perfect immunity genes.[/i]
[b]Unaging Gene[/b]
Similar to the ageless gene, except aging is stopped even if the character is a child. They'll still age if you put them into growth vats.
[b]Naturally Perfect Body Gene[/b]
Similar to the trait genes from Jimothy's Genes, except it adds multiple physical traits.
FAQ
[b]CE Compatible?[/b]
First person to ask this in the comments gets death by bear pit (not tested but probably compatible).
[b]I can't see the archite genes in Xenotype Creator![/b]
Can you see the ageless and deathless genes? If not, you need to tick "Ignore restrictions" so that archite genes are visible.
[i]If yes, then something strange is afoot, and make sure to provide me with an error log. Assuming you have each gene's requirements-to-load I'm not sure what would even cause that to happen, perhaps a modlist being so big that your computer can't load all the defs, or another mod turning them off.[/i]
[b]Why is this separate from Jimothy's Genes[/b]
I considered integrating this into JG with genes requiring Alite's archite gene mod to, but I figured it being its own mod gives you more choice and control over your own game.
Requirements:
Gene mods always require Biotech!
Growth Point genes require EBSG framework, otherwise they won't appear: [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3112549163]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3112549163[/url]
Lifespan genes require Alite's Expanded Biotech Style Genes, otherwise they won't appear: [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3020821838]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3020821838[/url]
Compatibility
[b]This is a simple xml mod, so should be compatible with literally everything.[/b]
That said, if you find an incompatibility, let me know!
Changes
Added immunity, unaging, hit / dodge chance, and perfect body genes.
Future Plans:
Archite versions of any suitable genes I make in Jimothy's Genes!
Anything you suggest, if said suggestions are ones I like and consider doable.
Remind y'all to check out Alite's gene mods, especially if you want archite genes for other stats.
Thankyou to:
Members of Rimworld discord's modding section, for explaining things to me.
Alite for making their gene mods.
Omelettes, for tasting nice.

Note that this channel is *NOT* Rimworld related. It's a worldbuilding channel. That said, you might notice some Rimworld-esque stuff in the worldbuilding, such as organ harvesting, war crimes, morbid hilarity and widespread cannibalism.
