I'm looking into this. It's helpful to know what other mods you have enabled

Я изучаю эту проблему. Полезно знать, какие ещё моды у вас включены.

I figured out the issue. I think snapper nests is a new feature for armored biters and for those like me who has had the mod enabled for awhile it will be disabled. (Edit: I think its because of another enemies mod that disabled it or something like that. but I removed that mod) But the feature is enabled by default so I assume this mod author assumed the user would have it on. Due to there being 1 less nest than expected, there is probably an index out of range issue. So this mod needs to check if the snapper nests are enabled first.

So yeah, for anyone else with this issue, enable snapper nests in the armored biters mod.

I'm still having this issue with the newest version of Metal and Stars without any additional mods installed.

Found the solution AJ213 mentioned, it was the "Enable Snapper Nest" option being disabled for the "armoured biters" mod, just like he said.

I had it disabled cause it was incompatible with rampant (which was in my pre-Space Age modlist) and the setting carried over post 2.0 update.

So anyone who had rampant before likely will run into the same issue.

Does that mean this mod is incompatible with rampant fixed?

There is a Fix to this issue,

Step 1
Have Armoured Biters Installed

Step 2
Go to Mod Settings (Settings > Mod Settings)

Step 3
Under the startup tab
Look for Armoured Biters or Type in Nest in the search bar

Step 4 Enable Snapper Nests

Step 5 Restart Game

This will allow for the mod to work with Armoured Biters.

I dont understand why armoured biters has snapper nests disabled by default but this is the only way to play with Metal and Stars.
