They carry complex subpersona cores in an attempt to mimic human behavior.\u003C\u002Fstrong> Compared to humans, mechanents do not need sleep, but they require either chemfuel, uranium, or fuel nodes for power. Stat-wise and gameplay-wise they're akin to mechanoids, just with the complexity of a regular pawn.\r\n\r\nPersonae: \u003Cstrong>The vessel of an AI persona. A bridge between the biological and the mechanical.\u003C\u002Fstrong> Compared to humans, personae need \"sleep\" - but not fuel. They're also the most human-like; with all the benefits that mechanents have, but none of their inhuman qualities.\r\n \r\nAll of these robots can be stunned by EMPs, share a unique \"surgery\" system, custom thought replacers, immunity to biological ailments and weaknesses, unlimited lifespans, etc. \r\nThey cannot - take human drugs, use human skill trainers, be host to xenogenes\u002Fxenotypes, or use buildings that require a \"fleshy\" pawn.\r\n\r\nThey can be found rarely as slaves, in outlander\u002Fspacer\u002Fpirate factions, or most commonly in their own factions. \r\nThe civil synth' are peaceful, open to trade, and even have a few humans in their ranks. \r\nThe hostile synth' however are meant to be a challenge faction. They're often amped up with combat upgrades and advanced weaponry, and to top it off they can even bring mechanoids with them on raids, such as scythers and lancers. And if Biotech is enabled they'll bring mechanoids made specifically to burn out organic life, like tesserons, scorchers, and even very rarely centipede burners. Good luck!\r\n\r\nAll of these wacky robots also both come with a combined amount of roughly 100+ backstories, thousands of different and unique names, and a plethora of unique textures and headtypes. All of your robots will have a different flair, style, & story to tell.\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003Cimg src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fi.imgur.com\u002FxC9FiEv.png\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\">\r\nAfter finishing the research needed to make mechanent\u002Fpersona components, you can print your own colonists.

If you're running 'Babies and Children ' you'll want to disable mechanents & persona in the mod settings. (Not a hard incompatibility, just a inconsistency.) --- If you find any other issues please let me know and I will try my best to fix it.\r\n\r\n- \u003Cstrong>\"Is it safe to add \u002F remove mid-save?\"\u003C\u002Fstrong> - You can safely add it mid-save, but if you want to remove it make sure you make a backup save and remove the robot factions if you have any.\r\n\r\n- \u003Cstrong>\"Are they balanced?\"\u003C\u002Fstrong> - Yep! They are not overpowered in combat or in day-to-day life. Running a robot-only colony will still be as challenging as a human colony, granted it will be played completely differently. They're the middle ground between mechanoids and humans as pawns.\r\n\r\n- \u003Cstrong>\"Does this mod add any sneaky features?\"\u003C\u002Fstrong> - All this mod adds is two races, two research projects, a new scenario, a few robot-only prosthesis, two rare traits, a meme and 2 precepts, and 2 new building. It also adds a simple nutrition value to chemfuel & uranium, though these items are only consumable by robotic pawns, and function exactly the same as they did before.\r\n\r\n- \u003Cstrong>\"Where can I find these robots? And what is the deal with this new building?\"\u003C\u002Fstrong> - Mechanents and personae can both be found within their respective factions, rarely alongside industrial & spacer factions, or sold as slaves. If you're rich enough you can also print your own using the mechcasket.\r\n\r\n- \u003Cstrong>\"Does it work with genes, babies, etc?\"\u003C\u002Fstrong> - Yes, it's fully compatible and consistent.\r\n\r\n- \u003Cstrong>\"Biotech version?\"\u003C\u002Fstrong> - No. It's too much effort, and a lot of the features in this version would have to be shaved down considerably.\r\n\r\n\u003Cimg src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fi.imgur.com\u002FRfksjaf.png\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\">\r\n\r\n\u003Cstrong>Credit\u003C\u002Fstrong> ~ An absolutely immense thank you to Neronix17 for allowing me to use his framework as a dependency during the early stages of this mod, Erdelf for their amazing framework and help, the 'AlienRaces' discord for helping me out throughout my modding experience, Detvisor for his artistic input and enthusiasm for the mod, Sir Van for helping out with the \"socialist\" mechanent head, and finally the Rimworld modding community for its awesome support and feedback.
