@Battl3bee Create a local copy of the mod, do some XML editing, boom. That's personally what I did for the more snowflakey backstories.

Battl3bee 18 ABR a las 18:28

can you add an option to disable some backstories please?

Yonu 13 ABR a las 18:21

Is there a place I can see what the backstories do to the pawns, or do I just have to guess?

Rook 12 ABR a las 14:27

There are way, WAY too many backstories that disable worktypes, and for completely nonsensical/arbitrary reasons based on what it is. makes this mod borderline unusable with how many gimped pawns it spawns.

I love having colonists that literally cannot do almost any job ever because they worked a specific job once

@DarthBrawn There won't be any bug fix if you're the only one to get the bug.

DarthBrawn 10 FEB a las 14:25

Got serious lag with this mod. I added and removed it by itself multiple times at different stages of a playthrough, still couldn't get above 40TPS.

The blurbs are fun and well-written though, so I'd be happy to resubscribe, assuming we get a performance update

Minor typo- Adult Chemfuel farmer backstory's 2nd to last word is always "him," regardless of gender

theothersteve7 17 DIC 2024 a las 20:21

Minor typo - the childhood backstory "living cure" last sentence uses a possessive pronoun when it should not.

From the description saying "uneasy around strangers to this day" it seems like the Adult backstory "Translator" should give -2 social instead of the +2 social it has currently.

Perhaps he was speaking from experience? lol

Vibing14 2 JUN 2024 a las 17:30

Sorry but why does cosplay enthusiast make the pawn incapable of caring?

Vermilion 2 JUN 2024 a las 12:06

Landsknecht background flip flops the pronouns with females in its last sentence. "..she was able to buy extravagant clothing marking her as an successful soldier. He never betrayed her principles..."

Oskar Potocki [autor] 15 MAY 2024 a las 14:49

I'll take a look at it

psc 15 MAY 2024 a las 14:48

I'm also getting the error reported by GoblinEngineer. Not sure if you accept third-party pull requests, but I created one that fixes the problem here:

GoblinEngineer 4 MAY 2024 a las 14:49

Howdy, sorry to be a bother but I got this error when looking at the bio of a pawn with the "Retired Soldier" background. The description is chock full of errors and this popped up in the log.

thank you!

Oskar Potocki [autor] 7 ABR 2024 a las 14:36

It will be updated for 1.5.

Bosh 7 ABR 2024 a las 12:22

Will this be updated for 1.5 or will there be a separate version?

SovietAmerica 9 FEB 2024 a las 20:34

Is there a way to get bloodknight on a random pawn? I want one, but I don't want to have to capture an Imperial pawn to get one

Crimson Shadow 1 FEB 2024 a las 9:31

how is the gifted burnout childhood backstory a tribal one?
im just a bit confused sicne it sound like its a industrial

Oskar Potocki [autor] 21 NOV 2023 a las 1:54

As long as it's not published anywhere, yeah!

Lunyicon 20 NOV 2023 a las 20:34

Can I use your BackstroyDefs for a school project? Thanks in advance!

G~ 22 AGO 2023 a las 10:30

Hey friends, thank you to all the authors and especially Oskar for being so present in the comments.
Since we already have a discussion thread ("Backstory Typos Roundup") pointing out many of the typos in this mod, can we expect those to be fixed? If not, what else could the users do to help expedite this process?

Oskar Potocki [autor] 20 JUL 2023 a las 6:37

No, it would be way beyond the character limit.

Microsoft Excel 20 JUL 2023 a las 5:50

Would it be possible for you to sort the full list on the mod page here, and separate the child and adult backstories into separate paragraphs? I'm using Prepare Carefully to add my friends into my game, which means sending them links to mod pages so they can see all their character options.

MadameHardy 11 MAY 2023 a las 16:54

Oskar, I'm a native English speaker and a tech writer/editor, and I'd be happy to volunteer to do a grammar/punctuation edit without touching anything else.

"Vanilla Backstories Expanded was a mod suggested by my patrons right after we released Vanilla Backgrounds Expanded and everyone thought that was the mod adding backstories. It wasn’t. This one is."

...Great galoshes, I would never have guessed you weren't a native speaker, you're quite fluent.

Someone seems to have already done that, actually, in the discussion "Backstory Typos Roundup". The bottom one contains a link, apparently they set it up as a patch and everything. Maybe that will help?

Oskar Potocki [autor] 18 MAR 2023 a las 4:22

As per the mod description, these are backstories submitted by the community. I am not a native speaker, so unless someone goes over them and fixes them up, I would not expect the update anytime soon. It's not as high priority as other planned updates to other mods.

obsidian29 18 MAR 2023 a las 4:20

Let's just say I look forward to when it's updated and these are fixed, I want my 'tuner punk' pawns back XD

Oskar Potocki [autor] 18 MAR 2023 a las 4:18

Sorry to have disappointed you :)

obsidian29 17 MAR 2023 a las 18:57

My goodness! I don't know what happened, but all of a sudden most of the backstories I run into are riddled with typos, bad grammar, and misgendering. I can try to write down a list of the ones I encounter that are like this, but I fear I'll spend more time doing that than playing the game. This is definitely not the quality I've come to expect from Vanilla Expanded mods.
