the psychic ships are the best, the last time i had one it sent out a pulse that drove a bunch of muffalo nearby mad while I was sallying out to kill it, so I had a greatbow guy hit it to activate the mechanoids within and they all just murdered each other lol

Well, that was a rough couple of days. Psychic ship - 16 mechanoids Infestation while I'm still whittling the centipedes down and with most of our defenses spent - 39 bugs Pack of 16 maneating Wargs Oh, and a high psychic drone while all that's going down  I'm amazed I made it out with only one death and one colonist giving up hope. The bugs turbofucked my living area since I opted to ignore them until they were burrowing deep into other areas.

Election day came the morning after an especially nasty raid. One colonist died outright, literally everyone else injured, all but 3 downed, most on bleedout timers. I had only just started to build a hospital in earnest, so it was only 2 hospital beds, a vitals monitor, an IV drip, and some science gear since I usually double it with my lab. I drop a ton of sleeping spots and designate them medical so that my army of trained animals (who failed to show up in time to the raid due to errors on my part) could haul in the injured. My 2 doctors happened to be the only ones armored and weren't bleeding (much) but were downed due to blunt injury pain. Fortunately some dead raiders dropped a couple go juices, so I had one of my walking injured dose them up so they could get to work. Meanwhile, because I couldn't wait, I had one of the other walking injured hurriedly performing first aid they had no training for. The real doctors, finally awake and tweaking on go juice, arrive at the hospital and get to work. Frantically they take turns dealing with 4 of the critically injured, while one of the walkers passes out and the other tends to the non-critical, but still downed patients. Then I get a notice that the town mayor won her re-election, by unanimous vote. 1 vote exactly, as luck would have it. The third walker - she was the mayor. She voted for herself, and everyone else was too busy dying or trying to save lives, but not her: she was incapable of caring. edit: gently caress me another raid just popped edit 2: i called in allies to deal with the second raid, they dealt with 90% of it, then immediately infested ship chunks landed, one of them directly on top of one of my allies edit 3: the infested routed my allies, taking heavy losses doing so, but theyre still too strong to risk facing. i just pulled everyone back inside the gates, i have 1.9 days before they reproduce to hopefully heal up metasynthetic fucked around with this message at 03:44 on Aug 6, 2019 |

Infested ship chunks is almost a beneficial event, insects won't aggro you unless you get close/provoke them and they're outside your base. If anything they're now guarding you against further raids until you've recovered, then you can mop them up after the next raid walks into them and softens them up for you. Last time I got ship chunks I left them alone and then discovered there was some sort of mod interaction happening where I think the Fluffy Breakdowns mod was causing the ship chunks to break down from lack of maintenance and eventually there weren't any hives left at all.

Eh, the chunk events seem to produce more bugs for me than the regular infestations, and the reproduce just like normal hives. Eventually you'll be up to your armpits in bugs, and they'll be ranging further and further to find food, eventually coming into contact with your colonists and starting fights. It really isn't a good idea to just leave them alone.

It really isn't a good idea to just leave them alone. Looked about the same to me, honestly. Bug spawns scale heavily with wealth, plus whatever mood Randy is in if he's your storyteller. Chunks do spawn hives but they also spawn jelly so bugs shouldn't be wandering terribly far, comes down to your map layout and how frequently you get raids to trim things down I guess. The spawned hives did decay as well in my game but that's probably not intentional.

I love weird mod interactions. I'm attacked by a rough tribe. Murder them all, reanimate a corpse thanks to the rimworld of magic mod. Same tribe contacts me later for a diplomatic marriage. It's the corpse I raised. It is a spooky skeleton now. I say sure, curious as to what would happen. I go to allied, lose control of the undead, who then talks about trees to a nearby pawn. Since the skeleton no longer has a necromancer to bind it together, it "dies". My doctor grabs the dead skeleton, brings it to an autopsy table, then harvests multiple body parts. Don't know where it kept those. Unwilling to let a corpse go to waste, the necromancer uses its consume spell to regenerate some Mana.

Donkringel posted:I love weird mod interactions. I'm attacked by a rough tribe. Murder them all, reanimate a corpse thanks to the rimworld of magic mod. Necro pawns are pretty janky right now. They still get some mood penalties which they shouldn't, they pick up food but don't eat, they constantly wear clothes which drives me mad. Even with loadouts and restrictions they continue to wear apparel items. It's obvious he's fiddling with the 'real' pawn in the background but it definitely needs some more work. Mana drain when you have a bunch of zombies is a real bitch, better have enough potions or you're going to lose your slave labour. This is fine though. And if you spawn on a map without jade you better hope a trader brings some or you won't be doing much magic item work.

So hey, if you play with a lot of mods, your game might be crazy hosed up right now. Apparently the latest Steam update did... something, and hosed up the workshop. What I did was deactivate all the mods, uninstalled the game, reinstalled, then loaded my latest save to reactivate my mod loadout. I saw it recommended to unsubscribe and resubscribe to your mods on the workshop, but when you're in the triple digits that's not quite reasonable

I just finished testing this version a bit and didn't see any issues, confirmed it's now showing up in the ammo category too. Here's a link.

So, I had a really cool situation happen, involving the Android Tiers mod (and Death Rattle, I think?). Marvyn is a T1 droid that got shot up real good during a mechanoid raid, which I somehow missed until he was 4 hours to bleedout. I put him in the hospital, he gets patched up, I think all is well. I also happen to be out of my colonist-approved meals as the raid happened at the same time as I sent my cooks out on a hunting lodge expedition, where they bagged 6k meat from dinos and wildlife. So, one of my nurses can't find any food to give to Marvyn, so they grab the nearest edible thing: beer. Which comes with a minor consciousness penalty, but he was already at the brink so he drops to 0% consciousness and enters a coma. My actual doctor comes over and (cursing out the nurse who gave a passed out robot a beer, I assume) brews up a go juice for the +20% consciousness effect. Crisis averted. 10 seconds later I get another notice of medical emergency - extreme heatstroke. Ohhh. Androids don't have blood, they have coolant... so if he had extreme coolant loss... yeah. I build my hospitals adjacent to the main freezer / with their own medical freezer so I plop him down in there and he's right as rain in seconds. Even wakes up, from the combo of being cooled down + the go juice in his system. That this emergent situation could even happen really impressed me.

Day 535 - Psychic ship Day 536 - Infestation Day 537 - Manhunter Pack Day 543 - Tribal Sappers Day 546 - Tribal Sappers Day 548 - Tribal Sappers loving hell, Randy. e: Lost two guys to the last sappers. They burrowed into the one place I just have walls for defence and forced me into a straight fight between my walls. They killed an old blind brawler I had and kidnapped a colonist I accidentally walked into their line of fire. I might open another entrance complete with traps and turrets on that side, it took way too long to get to the raiders and by then the fight was on thier terms.

Android tiers is a quite neat mod yeah, it's got some interesting ways of using the bio pawn system to simulate a kind of robot, such as yeah, when they get "blood loss" they actually suffer massive shifts to their comfortable temperature range. The different tiers are also different sizes, with the T1s being 0.8x the normal pawn size, but T3s are 1.4 times bigger. T1s and 2s have flat penalties to work speed but T1s come with a permanent 20% mood buff to compensate, and you can strap a pair of drill arms to a T2 to make it a pretty specialized mining drone. It gives you a quite different feel where your pawns are a lot more disposable cos you can literally build more of them, and you also need a lot less food I think cos they don't eat much.

I like the added touch that when you do 'surgery' on androids, they dont have a recovery period since they didnt need anesthetic Also if a vampire bites an android, they immediately start puking because coolant makes a poor substitute for blood

Also yeah it's a little odd how robots still get all the drug effects lol, especially as I assume you can just make replacement parts for them if they start to fall to bits. Tempted to try and make a cocainebot colony that runs on flake. Though they don't actually sleep anyway so dunno if the effect would be that good.

Androids are very slow to heal and while they don't get infections you still need to "treat" their wounds before they can start to recover.

If you dose them with 'mechanite swarm' (specifically that, not sensory mechanites or whatever) they heal up really fast, said android from before was fully healed half a day after I dosed him.

I keep switching between Androids and Android Tiers and I can never decide which I prefer. I like the droids from Androids and ho both droids/androids can live forever without food, which can be useful. being able to crap out semi-disposable droids to smelt slag/smooth floors/carry SMGs to repel tribals is nice, and being able to customize a brand new colonist is nice too; it's also super easy to get an android with like 15 shooting and melee and 12 in construction or medical, good traits, etc. which can be a Bit Much
