Cup Runneth Over posted:Doesn't luci heal brain damage? And, you know, the tradeoff is that they're addicted to it forever. Maybe. I mostly use it to murder prisoners. Chop off a leg and feed them Luci and they die in bed with minimum guilt. Though I'm still worried that one day. One of them will hop out of bed and wreck the place like a drugged out pogo stick of death. Dejawesp fucked around with this message at 10:29 on Aug 4, 2017 |

Cup Runneth Over posted:That kinda sounds OP as gently caress. Way to negate the entire Devil's bargain point of luci. Yea. First time I played the mod I had to infect one of my old people, then went to an abandoned lab. I only got a few tabs. That felt much better. I was totally surprised to have a poo poo ton of it spawn in a later game.

If you're gonna murder your prisoners with chemicals, use booze and cheap drugs(which will debilitate them horribly in the bargain); if you don't want to use luci just sell it for ridiculous bank.Luci can heal any injury short of death including otherwise unhealable problems like brain damage/bad back/frail/etc, but it can take a while since it happens randomly over time.

It's really funny. On one side we have the guy who gets upset when his colonists insult each other ever, and on the other we have Deja who force feeds his prisoners a diet of human ears.

Patches have ruined my past maps but I have a huge project I want to get working on. But it all depends on how stable raiding is. I want to have a base of around 100 people but also be able to raid without crashes.

I've never had a crash while raiding in alpha 17, but I also never had one before, nor do I run 100 colonist megamaps. Could just be a memory issue? This mod purports to clean up a lot of unnecessary leftover stuff that piles up in old massive save files, it could be the ticket.

At that many colonists, how are you even feeding them and getting resources? Through mods? OR do you have to raid constantly just for poo poo like steel?

Eltoasto posted:At that many colonists, how are you even feeding them and getting resources? Through mods? OR do you have to raid constantly just for poo poo like steel? Food by growing corn and metal through deep drilling and buying from other factions. I did have severe memory issues later on and so I pruned the base down to 50 people and I guess I can live with that. Here are some old screenshots. Over all happiness was always at rock bottom but frequent beatings usually fixed that. Repeat offenders got harvested and then they went into the furnace. The row of beds at the back around the furnace is the prison. Red light means prisoners are being harvested and then executed. Green light means they're being recruited.

Hey, it's only a problem that he's insulting everyone rather than doing any work. Mental break "be a dick" means wandering around aimlessly until he decides to jog across half the colony to find someone to poo poo on, and then wander off aimlessly afterwards. Brutally efficient colony though. I can appreciate that. I can't emulate it, but I can admire the work.

For awhile the easiest way to kill a thrumbo was drop a bunch of beer next to them, build walls then come back to pick the fur and horn out of a pile of death and vomit.

I think you can have your doctor apply that stuff to people directly like you can with luciferum. You definitely can with cocaine

Emergent Gameplay™ It seems like regardless it would take a long time and a ton of beer/weed to kill someone. Wasting luciferium also seems silly though, why not just pull out their critical organs or euthanize them?

So I have EPOE installed, along with a couple other mods and CTHULHU stuff. Am I right in assuming that increasing a colonists manipulation with augments like advanced bionic hands, an advanced bionic spine, and an exoskeleton will increase my crafting/tailoring/smithing speed? If so, is it a decent amount or just a little bit extra?

If so, is it a decent amount or just a little bit extra? It's pretty good. Crafting speed is affected by consciousness, manipulation, and sight. Benefits from sight are capped at 100%, so bionic eyes are just useful to get a colonist to 100%. Manipulation isn't capped, but only matters 90%. So I think that if you get manipulation to 140%, then it'll increase crafting speed by ~26%.

Don't underestimate how much benefit you get from a pair of cyber legs. Unless it's your researcher who stands in a corner all day like the forgotten, antisocial nerd they are your pawns do a lot of walking. 140% movement speed is pretty baller.

Cyberlegs is excellent. All cybernetics is great, but cyberlegs are the best for everyone except a researcher and maybe an artist.

Bionic, or the even better advanced bionic legs make your dudes move so fast the game engine has a hard time keeping up sometimes. They're perfect for downed colonist rescue tasks, coming to the aid of a hunter that just enraged a herd of elk or Caribou, or just grabbing something important that fell out of a pod on the other side of the map before it rots. They are crazy useful.

Also the original game is struggling and fighting me every step of the way with my method of governance which adds a bit to the fun. It just wouldn't be the same if that was how things were meant to be done. If I was to give advice to new Rimworld players... For warfare I found it better to use mid skilled conscripts in average quality gear. Regular clothes armored vest armored helmet assault rifle As opposed to a smaller amount of elite power armor soldiers with expensive gear. double lines of rifle wielding conscripts will mow down natives with ease where elite soldiers can risk getting into close combat and lose a limb to a lucky swing of a club. Brawler/melee skilled doctors. Doctors are the colonists most likely to get assaulted in close quarters and being able to beat a patient unconscious quickly can save your valuable doctors and preserve useful patients.
