[Request] Mod that removes mind control
Mind control is something I really don't like in stories or games. I feel it's cheap, overpowered, and something that isn't possible. So I would want a mod that remove it so it wouldn't be possible to get for both players, and enemy ships. But I have no idea how to mod FTL

That would be a pretty big pain, as a lot of ships have it. I don't see how you'd do it without editing every ship that has it to remove it, and then editing the thing itself to not show up in stores or on enemy ships.
And I like the mechanic too much to go through all that work

Re: [Request] Mod that removes mind control
I have began researching how to remove it myself, so far I manage to remove them from "blueprints.xml" and that seams the have caused it so all mind control systems are broken, which is a step in the right direction.

It's not a step in the right direction. Your ship will be built around not having MC and not wasting scrap on it, the enemies you face will have a useless system on board that takes valuable space and does nothing.
If you want to eliminateMC fairly, then you have to edit all enemy blueprints to not ever include MC. Then when enemies are auto generated, they are filled with usefull things. AutoBlueprints.xml should have all enemy builds, and eliminating MC from auto builds would be a step in the right direction.

There are some more enemy blueprints in dlcPirateBlueprints.xml and maybe also in dlBlueprints now.

You'd also have to set the rarity of the Mind Control system to zero, so it never appears in stores.

Why don't you just come up with your own way to justify it like I did with the Clone Bay? This is Sci-fi we're talking about!!! Anything is possible. Perhaps the Slugs invented it.

Re: [Request] Mod that removes mind control
Thanks, you all. I have never made a mod before, and was mostly just guessing ^^

That doesn't matter to me, I hate the very idea of mind control it self. The only thing I like is telepathic suggestions, but that is sadly not featured in many stories or games.
