So, uh, is there any way to heal a colonist without a bed? My caravan got ambushed and everyone so far has survived, but half of those survivors are downed. My functioning doctors are hard at work fixing up those animals though!  Edit: I'm a dumbass that forgot sleeping spots exist!

My searching hasn't turned anything up. Is there a mod out there that will let me destroy an individual item without using the bills menu? Ideally I could select the item and a button would appear on the bottom saying Destroy, or maybe it would be on a right click menu.

How much medicine does each type of wound take? I sent some guys after a precious mineral deposit, and met a manhunter camel pack there. I killed them all, but all my guys got bruised and apparently 10 medicine was not nearly enough for 5 guys? Now they're wallowing in the rain in a permanent sad-spiral in this temporary map because they're all wounded and taking forever to heal because I had to treat them all without medicine. Do I just keep drop podding food at them until they all stop breaking down? Right now they're either asleep or having a mental break, nobody will stay up long enough to put a roof on the nearby ruin to sleep in. So they're sad they're sleeping outside, sad that they're sleeping on the ground, sad about everything. I think my colonists have it too good in my colony, they break down as soon as they leave the comforts of home...

If you have mood-enhancers, those would be handy in this situation too.

I think its a med pack per injury that has a circle next to it, which when treated gets an x over it. I kinda have the same question about pawns being unhappy though i have one now that gets salty as gently caress when they arent in extreme comfort but i cant really tell why specifically or what trait makes them that way.

The "Extremely Low Expectations" mood buff (+25) gradually decreases as your colony gets more blinged up, so people that were totally fine on embark may end up being huge crybabies later on in the same rooms/furniture.

There really needs to be an "adventuring" or "camping" mood buff or something to make up for that. It should at least give you a couple days of sleeping on the ground before breaking and wandering for days. Maybe just a "glad to reach destination" or something.

I do a similar thing w/ my starts but also combine my dining room with my rec room and start filling it with good art asap. I set mandatory joy for everyone @ the same time of day, it turns the dining room into a real hot spot and people get mood improvements for eating in there and being around each other. If I'm stuck with someone abusive or ugly or something negative, I set their joy at a different time otherwise they end up getting into fights. I also make a small room for a butcher table near the freezer and kitchen asap but, like mentioned above, don't have people tracking bloody/dirty parts through your kitchen b/c it'll increase food poisonings.

I tend to have two gaudy rooms: the combined dining/rec area, and the mega-workshop. The latter keeps people working longer/more productive as they still get the spacious/beauty bonuses while working. Add good arm chairs to the workbenches and they get full comfort too. It the two are far apart you can also put a table in the workshop as colonists tend to pack a lunch and eat it off the ground if it's too far to walk back to the dining room.

I've just started playing this game, is there a downside to just going dwarf fortress mode and digging my base into a mountain? My current set up has everything inside but my geothermal vent, solar panels, and farms are in a steel wall enclosed area outside the mountain.

I posted this on the official forums, but I'll say it here too: there needs to be a way to prevent infestations. Maybe some type of floor tile that is both expensive and ugly as sin, but prevents bugs from spawning there. Or "thumpers" that keep away bugs in a certain radius, but generate a lot of noise complaints from pawns.

My current set up has everything inside but my geothermal vent, solar panels, and farms are in a steel wall enclosed area outside the mountain. Fun fact! Steel walls can burn. Use granite. Also bugs happen inside mountains. Be ready to seal off parts of your base and light them on fire. I like to have 2 sets of doors in each doorway, a stone door and then a wood door inside. I can open the stone door from the outside and light the wood in the room on fire and cook all the bugs. Of course you then lose everything in that room, but also nobody gets parts chopped off.

Alternatively send your bionic supersoldiers with their occult cuthulu powers into battle and show those filthy xenos who the actual boss of the mountain is.

How do you light things on fire? I really wish you could fix animals through surgery to make them sterile. I got dogs thinking i could sell the extras but they breed faster than i can get the silver to sell them. Looks like im gonna be eating a bunch of dogs  Also 1k silver to call a caravan sucks. I get the idea but i wish we could pay with gold or steel or food etc. as well. Especially since the caravans that come seem to have like 800 or 1000 silver so i always have to scrounge up more to call another one.

I'm kinda sad that all but two of my raids so far have been deep ones or a pack of rabid terriers. I have a fantastic altar built, surrounded by quite luxurious accommodations but no humans to...fuel...my relationships with any of the unspeakable horrors my scientist has descended into madness to preach about. One of them gives the psychopath trait! Thinking about making that one mandatory as a part of the initiation into the Children of the Six Pointed Sun.

You can separate the males and females into different animal areas to prevent them from having babies.

ShadowHawk posted:Is there a mod where I can cryogenically freeze dead colonists/colonist heads and then bring them back to life later? Recon and Discovery mod is a good one. Gives you additional quest events where you can snag these items. 1) Holo emitters. Either load a pawn via floppy disk, or scan a dead pawn. That pawn is now alive again but confined to a specific area. If they go to far they are transported back into the emitters field. I have a 20 med 20 art skill doctor I keep in the infirmary crafting drugs, medicine and art. 2) Life pods. Stick your freshly dead pawns in these, pod injects them with a ton of nanites (luci) brings them back to life but addicted to luci. Haven't personally tried this one, probably getting details wrong. I really recommend the mod, lot of neat discovery moments.

Or just put them in a cryopod between combats. Probably cheaper than constant resurrection.
