Tias posted:Rimefeller users: I had the same issue. Click on the resource console and you may need to set your production targets. It won't make anything till you tell it to make X synthylene or whatever. Also does anyone have any recommendations for mod collections which are more medieval / low tech focused? I've been using immersion+ for the last few runs and want to try something different. Mr.Sloth fucked around with this message at 23:53 on Dec 17, 2019 |

I forgot to put one tile of piping into the synthylene plant  Anyway, how do y'all do napalm traps? I just tried a spark pan, but it appears they just light stuff constantly and immediately, which napalmed half my driveway and couple pawns

So got back from work and was able to download that Android Tiers fix that made everything work again. Is there any way to stop Steam from downloading any updates like that unless I want it to? The update options I see for it under Steam properties are "yes, always, super always, and before everything always!" which is...not what I want.

I just place a peice of unconnected power conduit near them, so you can manually switch things on and off using the re-connect button.

How far will pawns travel to use a table ? I have my fridge set on one side of a small valley, then farms, then my factory / rec center on the other side/. Everyone goes to the fridge and just eats a meal, and ignores the table setup. Its it too far to walk? is it not set up exclusively as a eating spot because i might have a research table there too ? its really one of the only bad thoughts we are getting and its driving me nuts Also , auto turrets, any good set up ideas so they aren't rushed and killed asap? adding sandbags in front ? multiple layers ?

They won't travel very far, no. So you should put a fridge somewhere next to your dining room.

I've been getting a lot of mileage out of making meal storage just on the other side of a wall from the dining table, and then filling that one room with all the recreational furniture. One room gives both dining room and recreation room mood bonuses.

Having a dual purpose rec and dining room is a good idea because yeah, they don't interfere, they are used in the same time block, and you get the quality bonus for both. I also recommend a fridge mod that makes freestanding container fridges for meals, makes live much easier.

This post right here. My kitchen is right across the hall from a giant community room with chairs, tables, pool, and other entertainment options. I don't actually have refrigerators in the same room, but because the kitchen is so close, pawns can just dip in and grab a meal, then go straight to the beautiful community room. Make sure you put your table seating in the effective area of the TV.

Kitchen as effectively an add-on to the dining room is also a good idea yes. I usually put them across the hall or in a cafeteria style arrangement. If you use the mod that adds wall fridges this works even better because you can literally make the adjoining wall into meal storage and access it from both sides.

I actually tend to put my TV in the hospital. Whatever dumbass got himself shot, stabbed, burned and caught the plague will watch TV without leaving their medical bed and nobody needs to use more pawn labor to cheer up patients.

After I made my post, I realized I needed to do this in my game. I just have to work up the  to load it back up and make the change.I've been waiting until I build a new computer to go back into it, because on my aging 3570k the game slows to a crawl once you're big. It's a bit better since I swapped in a new heatsink and overclocked, but until I get a beefy modern processor, I'm going to be eating poo poo at 50+ pawns.

So with the new version of Prison Labour, it keeps more track of how you treat your prisoners, leading to them committing suicide if you treat them too poorly. This also includes while inside a battery pod apparently  I dont know if that means they'll commit suicide in a crypto sleep pod too but either way it seems like a bug.Also a raid came in with a high level surrogate android that I managed to destroy, and upon disassembling, the AI core was still intact  flashbacks to Dwarf Fortress and using enemy raids as a tertiary source of raw materials

 Texture pack! Also, wall/floor tile pack. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1771295228 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1882432197 I'm enjoying it thus far, adds a nice RPG style look to things, and it's a nice change of pace from vanilla art. Also makes the water look really good. I like also that it takes advantage of the difference between hewn and regular rough stone, the stuff you dig out actually looks quarried while the difference in vanilla is virtually unnoticeable. Makes the map look quite nice and bleak/gloomy.

It gives you fridges that can be standalone or installed as a wall. I use the wall fridges in my kitchens, dining rooms, and rec rooms because it allows two way access (haulers deposit from the hallway, consumers withdraw from inside the room). Also keeps meals frozen so they wont spoil. It feels balanced too because they require power and components

Hauling pets and pawns can deposit stuff without ever having to enter a building. Then the animals or cooks or whatever can use the food without ever leaving their building Also I'm rich af

I'll tend to micromanage is too much trying to make a base that is cool in the summer, then i flip the vents closed and now all the coolers are heating up the base. But it takes so much effort then to just plop a heater down

Was electric smelting removed as a tech? I have slag everywhere and can't seem to find it in my research tree  Also, does napalm light up when struck by lightning, or can it spontaneously self-combust?

Lightning sparks fires if it hits anything flammable, so yeah napalm will go up.

Tias posted:Was electric smelting removed as a tech? I have slag everywhere and can't seem to find it in my research tree In vanilla I thought it was unlocked by smithing? Not sure, seems like its always available to build by the time I have slag building up. On base design, a larger room naturally adds impressiveness too so tearing down a wall and combining dining plus rec helps both bonuses for the same amount of space. My new favorite is to make a 4-5 wide main hallway connecting the early bedrooms and kitchen/rec/dining. Use that area for storage very early and eventually as the main workshop. Put all the heating/cooling in that "room" with vents to everything else. Hallway is maybe a strong word, just a contiguous space between the other rooms, you can tetris workbenches and stockpiles quite a bit in irregular spaces.

I had a drop pod smash through the just-finished roof of my freezer onto the head of a pawn, killing him instantly, on day three of a five-person embark with tribal supplies but spacer tech. The pawns were named after my roommates and friends.
