Known Issues

The abilities in Psychic Vampirism and Biological Reconstructors are added when a pawn joins an ideo with those memes, so they most likely will not work as intended with fluid ideos!

Walls were never meant to be styleable, so the blueprints of Steampunk walls will show as a weird blank coloured wall. Just a visual inconvenience! Once built they'll be fine

FAQ

Q: Can I add it mid-playthrough to an existing save?
A: Yes, albeit to no effect, as ideologies are only created upon starting a new game. You can however edit ideologies in dev-mode.

Q: I don’t like certain meme, can I remove it?
A: Use Owlchemist's Cherry Picker mod!

Q: I want more than 4 memes!
A: Check mod options for Vanilla Ideology Expanded - Memes and Structures! You can increases number of memes, styles, rituals, relics and ideo buildings.

Q: Can I suggest a new meme?
A: Without a doubt, I accept all suggestions. Please use the pinned Suggestions thread in Vanilla Ideology Expanded - Memes and Structures for it!

Q: Where should this mod be placed in the mod load order queue?
A: Under Ideology, our Framework and any mods that specifically mention having to be above this mod.

Q: Is it compatible with another mod that adds memes?
A: Depends on what memes such mod adds. Chances are, if someone else alters the same game components, our memes can become incompatible. It is obviously compatible with Vanilla Ideology Expanded.

Q: Vow of Nonviolence is too difficult!
A: Yes.

Q: Does this work with Combat Extended?
A: I have been told it is compatible. I've also been told the sharpshooter meme does weird things.

Q: Styled walls for Kemetic, Steampunk and Scavenger look weird when being built!
A: The game doesn't like walls being styled, but someone made this mod, use it! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2957953663

Thanks to Helixien, Pooler and Cassie for providing the textures for the Stargate inspired armours for the Kemetic style.

Allie built the entire Funeral Framework and a LOT of rituals work

Cassie did about 150% of the Steampunk and Corsair styles, the mad woman.

Luizi is listed as an author because he'll finish drawing something someday. Maybe.
