📋 About This Mod

Unlock Gurubani Kaur for YOSE BREAKDOWN ONLYIt unlocks Gurubani Kaur in the most Vanilla way possible. Optional file to also let you hire people for 0 influence. Simply start a new game in any breakdown level to unlock her and the "Bonus

Description

This mod simply tells the game that you have imported a save from

The original state of decay from xbox360 or steam versions which are no longer available.

Everything else is untouched.

Compatibility: IT IS FOR YOSE VERSION AND BREAKDOWN.

You must start a new game at any breakdown level to immediately get "the prodigal" achievement and therefore unlock Gurubani.

HIGHLY COMPATIBLE WITH ANY OTHER MOD!

If a mod you want uses rtsdata.xml than you can unlock Gurubani than uninstall

This mod and install the other, Gurubani will stay unlocked on your save game when you pick a hero in breakdown.

However you will lose the radio call "Bonus Survivor" option for any breakdown game from than on.

To keep the radio call "Bonus Survivor" you need to keep this mod installed.

If you are using the alt version with 0 cost for hire you will lose that modification if you uninstall this mod or

delete the rtsdata.xml and rtsdata.win.bmd files that are installed with the mod.

INSTALL:  Use vortex.

Manual Install: Just extract to your base state of decay folder

Uninstall: Use Vortex again.

Manual Uninstall: go to your base state of decay folder where your game executable is.

Than travel to game/libs/class3. 1/rts and delete the rtsdata.win.bmd and rts.xml

and it is uninstalled.

3 Versions of the mod

Vanilla version- it only unlocks Guruabani Kaur for Yose Breakdown nothing else. Start a new game at any breakdown level to immediately get "the prodigal"

achievement and therefore unlock Gurubani, you can only use the radio call "bonus Survivor" to call Gurubani once you have a home, it does not work if you are still in the RV.

0 Cost to hire someone - it unlocks Gurubani same as above, but will also reduce the cost to hire people to "watch your back" to 0 instead of 100.

Why? because this mod modifies the same file that modifies the cost for hire of people, so if you wanted both sorts of mod active than i already made

it simple for you.

0 Cost to hire someone plus followers follow you for longer - it unlocks Gurubani same as above, but will also reduce the cost to hire people to "watch your back" to 0 instead of 100 and make them stay for a half an hour before they are "tired" and have to go home.

i am calling this version "Unlock Gurubani - 0 cost 4 hire - longer hire time" in the downloads area.

Mod Recomendation:

If you are using any version of 0 Cost to hire someone, you might also want to get: Allow Followers YOSE

It makes it so your followers stop leaving when you accept missions.

I cross-referenced all the files to check if nothing weird was changed, and this mod is 100% vanilla friendly

and has no extra modifications, should be totally safe to use, also it is compatible with the mod you are viewing now.

Why all these versions? because this mod modifies the same file that modifies the cost for hire of people, so if you wanted both Gurubani unlock and a cost for hire mod active than i already made it simple for you.

This mod is incompatible with YOSE fewer restrictions by Kolobian because it also modifies the file rtsdata.xml.

As such i am giving you this optional version to do the same as yose fewer restrictions.

But than what if you also want No population requirements that comes with "YOSE fewer restrictions"?

You can install this mod that will remove the population requirements to move in and is compatible with this mod, get it here:

No population requirements to move in for YOSE breakdown or story mode

What "YOSE fewer restrictions" mod would do with the same file is reduce the cost

of hiring people to 5, mine goes to 0 + the unlocking gurubani and bonus survivor radio call, but 0 to 5 is not that much of a diferen
