Is there some late-game hurdle I'm missing? you can do it from the word go with nothing but a pack of medicine, a doctor, and a sleeping space/grave from the donor, and the usual reason for doing it is that organs sell for quite a lot and are pretty valuable for fixing some inherent problems in your own colonists. for example, older colonists will frequently show up with an artery blockage, which WILL eventually cause a heart attack due to the weakened blood pumping. harvesting a heart from some poor sucker and popping it into your colonist will fix them straight up. similarly, lung transplants cure asthma.

Pretty much all my dudes are in ok health. Sometimes they get a hand or nose or finger lost, but I've yet to run into a situation where they need an internal organ. It's all just scars and missing digits.

What is this new guilt mechanic? Is it like a window to execute them? For people who will never agree to be recruited I never quite know what to do with them. I really wish we could set up a basic justice system and like give pirates prison terms or throw idiots who get into "social fights" into the naughty corner to chill out.

Well gently caress. I just conducted my first successful slave raid. Killed everyone who struggled. Took 4 prisoners. Converted a local hut into a triage station. One prisoner died but the other three were stabilized. (Of note. The doctor would not use medkits she had in her pocket. Nor would she use them if they were on the ground. Not even when I made the ground a stockpile and the room "home") Keep in mind that you have 24 hours from when the last enemy is incapacitated to get out which is hell of a short time. Had the engineers prepare and fuel a launch station so we could all get back home. Loaded in the prisoners. When the last pawn entered the drop pod the game registered that this map had no pawns in it. Instantly killing all the pawns in the pods and returning me to the world map. Back in my base, pets who belonged to pawns on the drop pods went berserk due to their bonded person having died.

Okay it worked out. I had all the pawns except 1 get in the pods and fly them home. That one pawn was then loaded up with the remaining smokeleaf, beer and as much food as he could carry. So that he could walk home. No hurry. He'll be fine. Pods landing back home with all the prisoners and the loot.

Make pillars to hold up the mountain and learn to live with them. 1 every 6-7 blocks should do it. Meanwhile this guy named Raccoon has a rival named Raccoon. Okay so that village belonged to one of the three factions who own this entire planet. That kind of sucks. With so many towns and villages you would think a hundred or so factions would be a good start. Having three trade partners was good.

Stockpiles are beginning to irritate me. I wish there'd be a search feature on them so I don't have to click through every sub-branch to find under what generic term a product is listed under.

Christ, I love this game, so why does it hurt me so much? Someone wants to join my colony, cuz she's being chased by a mean guy. I accept, check her stats and skills, and decide to go with it. Come on in, lady! Just a quick beeline northward! The big wooden building! Can't miss it! You run to us, the dude with a club will he positively riddled with bullets! Wait, why are you running southward? Into the mountains? With all the rock chunks slowing you down, likely tripping over things like a Friday The 13th victim? You're going to... yup, you're dead. Why. Unrelated, how badly do wind turbines do when the weather is Clear? The wiki isn't very clear on their viability, and seems like you'd need to build tons of them (and batteries) to keep things going.

So I just had a guy visit my colony (hospitality mod). Like most visitors he had a few items for trade, so as he was milling around the billiards table I traded him four or five yayo for a couple of his components. Immediately he whips them out and snorts every last one, grabbing himself a crippling psychite addiction and passing out from a drug overdose there on the spot. The chief of his tribe instantly hears about this through the vast psychic awareness afforded to all tribal chiefs, and is angered with me (-5 faction good will). I send a colonist to "rescue" the passed-out guy, and she takes him to hospital, where he lies down for a couple minutes before waking up again. He's so grateful for his rescue that he asks to join the colony. He hasn't made much of an impression on my so far so I say no. I release him back into his natural habitat, and he wanders slowly off the map, still tripping egregious quantities of balls. The tribal chief is pleased that he left the map healthy (+15 faction good will).

Pigs eat hay, don't they? 80% of my google searches are asking the same question, 20% say that do, and I'm 100% sitting here with three random pigs that have really low health meters. I wish this game was clearer with things. Don't tell me what animals eat in generic terms, tell me what they eat in terms of salient products I can make.

pigs happily eat hay. i was feeding pigs for some farmed meat until i found some chickens. wild boars will also eat hay. you can check the rimworld wiki for the diet of various animals. only carnivores will refuse to eat plant matter (grass and hay), but compensate for it by being hungry less often. i've found that dogs will happily eat chicken eggs, which is making me consider picking them up again if i can figure out a good way to make sure they primarily eat eggs

I currently breed timber wolves but I'm having mixed feelings. The game refuses inbreeding so breeding is not as easy as just having at least one female and one male because a few generations down the line you're going to have 40 wolves but only the original parents can mate. If you on the other hand have 2 males and 2 females then they will have two separate families who will breed interchangeably. However you have to be super careful when selling wolves because if one family gets a lot of males and a few females die from fighting or disease, you could stand there with 15 males and 15 females and your wolf population will gradually die out completely because the game considers all the wrong ones related. Lets talk about drugs. I added smokeleaf and beer to the population a day ago and set them to use social drugs. People have been happier and breaking down less but people have also been getting really sick. Lung and liver cancer is rampant. 1 in 4 has asthma (chronic and reduces movement speed) 1 in 3 has Cirrhosis (chronic, reduces work speed and the speed at which they develop immunity) That combined with the staggering amount of effort that they have to spend on growing the related plants and producing the drugs probably make them a net negative to the colony.

Nice piece of fish posted:Drugs are bad, who knew? Nobody tell TCC. It's a conspiracy by the lumber industry because they know that hemp can replace wood as a superior raw material for making paper. (Yes this is a real conspiracy theory) On another note there are a few mods I would want to find. A mod that makes a deep drill that mines a wider area. I'm tired of micromanaging these little fuckers. One drill per area is fine for me. The cost, yield and power usage can be balanced accordingly A mod that makes hunters cooperate somehow. When I select half the map and click "hunt" I'd want them to work as a team. Not have one guy take on a grizzly bear solo on the other side of the map. A mod that lets you set a cap on how many plants to harvest. Like harvest until there's 1000 potatoes in storage and then don't harvest more or 1000 smokeleaf. So I don't end up with 15,000 potatoes. Something to reverse the order of beer brewing. Right now brewing goes like this: Collect raw material > Process raw material (player sets the Wort cap) > Put processed material in barrel to make beer. I can control the cap on how much Wort is made but I have no control over how much Wort is turned into beer. I'd rather they just harvest the hops and then put it straight into the barrel. Then after fermenting they bring the result to the bench for bottling. Then let me set the cap on how much final beer is made. Edit: Oh yes. When I tell colonists to build something. I'd want them to use uninstalled items from the stockpile before building new ones. If I want to move 10 beds then I'd like to be able to select all 10 and uninstall them. Then tell colonists to build 10 at the new spot and have them get the uninstalled beds automatically. And a loving log so I can see what happened. It doesn't have to be elaborate but if a colonist is crushed by falling roof they get deleted from the game without a peep. You get a quick notice at the top (that obscures colonists too) and then that vanishes. You get a yellow note on the right that a roof did collapse but the only way you would know if someone died is from them missing. Dejawesp fucked around with this message at 15:31 on Feb 2, 2017 |

I just noticed something about surgery. When I tried to harvest a left kidney, the surgery failed and the kidney got infected. The order then changed to "remove left kidney" which means you take it out and throw it in the garbage. So if you still want to harvest them, you have to remove that work order and then add "harvest right kidney" I do not give this game enough credit. I just noticed that the game has art engravings on weapons. Dejawesp fucked around with this message at 16:06 on Feb 2, 2017 |
