Hacked Locusts is a Vintage Story mod by kryptopyr. Hacked Locusts lets Clockmakers tame sawblade locusts with a tuning spear and marks friendly machines with green eyes.
Why this mod is worth installing
This mod is for Clockmaker players who want to use sawblade locusts as allies instead of fighting every mechanical insect they meet. The eye-color change also makes friendly and hostile locusts easier to distinguish.
What Hacked Locusts adds
Hacked Locusts extends the existing Clockmaker taming mechanic to sawblade locusts. A Clockmaker can use the tuning spear on these mechanical creatures in the same general way as on regular and corrupt locusts.
The mod also gives hacked locusts green eyes. This is a visual gameplay cue that helps identify an allied machine when several locusts are nearby.
The tuning spear remains tied to the Clockmaker class through Vintage Story’s normal item behavior. Disabling class-specific recipes does not remove that class restriction.
