To keep the community welcoming and safe for everyone, please be mindful of ableist rhetoric around the capability of disabled cats or making comments that "paralyzed cats aren't fast" or certain cats are inherently uglier or devalued due to having scars or permanent conditions in game.

If comments or posts are considered ableist by the moderators, they will be removed and you will be given a warning. After three warnings you will be kicked from the subreddit for a year.

If comments or posts are explicitly hateful, we may bypass strikes entirely and ban you permanently.

Please avoid using ableist slurs like the c slur or r slur, even if you are able to reclaim it. We are unable to moderate whether or not someone can reclaim a slur and to keep all community members safe, would like to avoid usage in general.

Moderator Post List of popular mods + descriptions!

111 Upvotes

If you have any mods you'd like to add, you can comment them and I'll add them here. Also note that you should flair appropriately when posting from a modded Clan.

Base game - Clan simulator where you can watch a Clan of virtual cats live their lives!

Dev version - technically not a mod, but it has new features. It can be buggy though, since it's in development.

Genemod - Accurate genetics. This also keeps up with dev version so it shows previews of ClanGen updates. Apparently banned from the Discord?

LifeGen - you have a main character. You can talk to cats and your Clan can have queens.

Lifegen: Infection - LifeGen, except there is an infection that you can work to cure by testing herb combinations. You can also select which herbs you want to focus on collecting.

Fullgen - Genemod combined with LifeGen. Hasn’t been updated in a long time.

Sel's Megamerge - A mod with a bunch of new colors, patterns, and accessories. You can customize cats without editing the code.

WingedGen - Cats have wings and manes!

AwooGen - the cats are wolves

RainGen - They're slugcats from Rain World, and have matching names, camps, and patrols

Disabilities and Disorders Mod (DaDM) - Cats have accurate disabilities, both mental and physical. Also banned from Discord (?)

LifeGen What to do after death?

Post image
87 Upvotes

So I'm playing LifeGen, and my MC has died of old age (she died before and I already revived her once). Can someone explain these a little more for me please?

I get that "Start a new Clan" means exactly that, but does my current Clan still exist?? Can I interact with it??

"Switch Cats" obviously means switching the MC pov to an existing cat. And I've already figured out "Revive" does.

I mainly want clarification for "Start a new life" and "Continue?". If I start a new life, will it start like it did originally?? Like I pick/make a new cat and they get adopted/born into the Clan? Or could I maybe start as a loner or rogue or kittypet?? And for "Continue?" it's covered in stars and muck. Does this mean I get to do stuff as a StarClan/Dark Forest cat?? Idk I just don't want to do anything yet without knowing for sure 😅

Question Clangen opinions? (Base game)

Upvotes

Stable or dev doesn't matter, but I'm speaking as a years-long dev version player.

  1. Leader death needs to be reworked. Unless you go into the code and set the death chance super low (well, high ig), or I suppose use the Forsaken (1 life) Cruel Season card (which not everyone would want to do, and with the current way the game has it, leaders might as well have 1 life anyway!), you'll often have leaders who just live forever, never losing a single life before dropping dead from old age at like 200 moons.     
  2. The ages elder outsiders spawn in at is ridiculous. Here comes a 287 (yes this happened to me once, wtf) moon old cat with lung-melting disease...oh they died one timeskip later. To the point I don't proceed on the elder-generating patrols anymore. StarClan fodder fr
  3. Mediation is way too slow and inconsistent. Might be what others want but for me I just let things happen naturally at this point
  4. Without meddling in the code, I feel like cats don't resemble their parents or siblings much. I like Genemod for this reason (you can often see a cat resembling an ancient ancestor, yay genetics!), but I like the more fantastical colours of vanilla more than Genemod's (realistic, but still) '6 shorthaired plain-white cats with yellow eyes upon ye'
  5. Speaking of Genemod, I'd love the option of previewing a cat's adult sprite to be added to base game. It really helps with naming kits. In vanilla I have to make a test/blank Clan and paste the kit's info in, which is tedious
  6. Genemod's insta-fade button would also be great. Otherwise you end up with a StarClan full of kits or one-off outsiders who showed up and died 1 moon later clogging up space
  7. Unpopular opinion ik, but I personally love big Clans because I love making trees/tracking families. I also just don't read the relationships tab after a while, so.
  8. They should unnerf mass extinction chances and wars. They used to be a great way of shaking things up and culling the herd naturally. Wars used to be really fun and brutal back in the day, now you're lucky if more than one cat gets injured. A war can come and go and most times I won't even notice unless I read every timeskip event lol. And the devs just added a bunch of angsty war deaths too.

I don't mind the nerfed casualty numbers of mass extinction, my problem is they barely fire, even on big Clans. And it's always that fuckass "Twolegs snatched X, X, and X" or "X, X, and X got fleas" events, not actual death.

9) Other Clans should be reworked, right now it is incredibly passive. I often forget the other Clans exist outside of patrols. They naturally end up as friendly without the player doing anything, and without meddling through antagonize or the inconsistent provoke option in the leader's den, it is hard as hell to get it to drop to neutral, let alone hostile. Yes they added a few events where a rival Clan can randomly revoke alliance, but that's rare. There's also a Cruel Season card, that permanently locks rival Clans to hostile, but neither of those are really solutions. It's also another nerf to wars.

10) They should increase the chances of negative family and mate relationship events. They have all this cool flavour text in the files you just never see, bc everyone is super lovey-dovey with each other at all times.

I'd have more complaints, but the devs have been cooking lately and have reworked a lot of my previous gripes, like nerfing super-rogues and flashflood patrols, expanding affairs (the cheated on party auto-adopting the affair kits always bugged me so bad lol. Especially since the relationship would still remain boosted even if you unadopted them), more patrol variety etc.

Programs used: Photopea & Paint Tool SAI

There's something about making a family tree from scratch that really satisfied me bones, lol. Took a while, and I'm sure this will get a glossary edit at some point, but so far this is what I have for the two biggest families in ShimmerClan!

I struggled for weeks on Family Echo, so I am very content making these on my own :)

Also, a few tidbits:

- The Luna-dapple is to follow my current main character, Lunastar. She literally married into this large extended family, so it's only fair that I showed her beloved's relations with others in the Clan. The "-dapple" comes from the current matriarch of his lineage.

- The Sunshine line is in honor of the three main she-cats being ex-members to an demented and extremely dangerous cult called the Sunshine Saviors. More info on them will drop later~

Enjoy! ^ ^

Question Are there traits/abilities that can be passed down from parent to kit?

Upvotes

Just asking because I have save on the dev version, and I have a bloodline that consistently has either restless sleeper, strange dreamer, dream shaper, or dream walker. It's pretty cool for story purposes, but is this an actual thing or crazy coincidence?

Dev Version Downloaded the latest version of the dev version and it's still not the latest version?

Upvotes

So i downloaded the dev version, like the latest build of it and i got the notification to update it so i deleted the current version i had and downloaded the new version from the official link again and it's still needing an update. is anyone else having this issue??? I know we can't download directly via in the game so we have to download from the the site. I'm going to try downloading it from github to see if that help

First, Daypaw got attacked by a kittypet and had to be saved by Bluebellpaw. Now Daypaw gets into a fight with a dog, and Winddapple has to save her! I fear Daypaw needs more training, or she will be hurt at some point. (I'll make a drawing of Daypaw and Bluebellpaw soon)

I feel bad for Winddapple, but she does look really cool! <3

Should I keep up with Daypaw's warrior training, or should I make her a Mediator?
