Kirhos Reloaded (Discontinued)

Description
ATTENTION
Frackin Universe made their own revival of Kirhos, don't use both at once!

Okay so I seriously have no idea how to code and unfortunately I don't have enough time or interest to keep trial and erroring to get everything to work. So if anybody wants to take the mod over there are two links at the bottom of the description that have the newer files fixed by me and the original files created by Yako.

v1.3.1: Mechs work

Return of the Cyberpunk Space Rodents!

The original creator of the mod (Yako) discontinued it and left permission open to anyone who wanted to continue the mod.
Right now this mod simply fixes all of the issues that prevented normal gameplay and restores all non-working content.
Sorry I'm not planning on adding new content, mainly because I don't know how and the mod is basically being held together with duct tape right now.
Please tell me if you find any bugs or anything out of place!

Issues
You can't craft the clothing because the game wants to be ****ing stupid and not let the Workshop version work for whatever reason.

Notes: Armor values are a bit different than vanilla values. I don't know if it was supposed to like that or if those are old stats. I'll leave it for now.
I know the higher tier ships have bad art. That was a placeholder made by Yako. I probably won't get to that for a while so I'd recommend getting a new ship off the workshop or forums for now. If you do make sure you clear all of your items out of your ship beforehand or they might get lost!

Original Description

I'm a sci-fi nerd and I found a the lack of a fully Gibsonian cyberpunk-themed race in Starbound disappointing. So I filled the niche myself.

The Kirhos are an alien species dissimilar from any Earth fauna. I call them "goblins" or "rodents" for personal ease. Hundreds of years ago, they exhausted all resources on their home planet and fled to the stars. Nowadays, most kirhos live in privately-owned cities with synthesized environments referred to as arcologies-- or "arcs" among the hip. Kirhosi player characters are young, tech-savvy rebels without a cause who hijack a prototype spaceship so they can forge a new life among the stars.

As mentioned above, the race draws heavy inspiration from the cyberpunk subgenre of science fiction, especially works such as Shadowrun, Akira, The Matrix, System Shock, and William Gibson's short stories. Have you ever thought Starbound would be better if everyone used arbitrary future slang and wore outrageous clothing that should have gone out of style years ago? You've come to the right place! Just want to play a colorful furry creature with adorably oversized ears? This mod hopefully covers that too.

Sure, do whatever you want with em but give all credit to Yako, the original creator.

Hello, I'd like to know if you'd give us permission to use the Kirhos from your mod here for a fork of Frackin' Universe, since they are part FU.

We will, of course, properly credit the assets, should you give us permission to use them.

That would be a cool thing to do

I keep feeling like I need to make a spiritual successor to the Khiros. It'd be easier for me to have free reign over every facet and not have try to go off the creators original vision.

Aight, i kinda made my own, which is similar to avali, but in other colors instead of just white and orange

@ fimose elastica Unfortunately no, i was going to try but I don't know how to implement villages/dungeons and I don't know enough about their culture to build structures for them.
Larry Fisherman 27 Feb, 2022 @ 2:39pm 
Question: do Kirhos have any structures or anything? I kinda wanna incorporate their way into my base

Thank you for keeping this one up. Not everyone likes FU, its good to have alternatives. ;)
