Aside from Vegetable Garden, how the heck are people supposed to get enough resources like Plasteel?

Deep drilling also works well.

There are two mining mods that I know of that add large mining structures that allow access to anything you want. They're just expensive with a high power cost. Industrialization added one, you needed to buy a thing (about 4-5k silver) from a Deep Mining Trader (added by that mod) that called down some plasma beam to drill a hole for you, then you built your mine over that. Mining was relatively quick though, so it felt a bit overpowered. Deep core mining was another, basically an upsized version of the vanilla miner. Mining with this one took a lot longer, so I liked it better from the standpoint of just being able to pick plasteel and mine it. But I usually don't have plasteel needs that exceed the amounts brought by mechanoids, bulk goods, and exotics traders, especially with the scaling trader mod But as added mining, I use Quarry.

I tried deep core mining. It was okay for steel and silver but plasteel took so long I had people starving just bringing up one load so I stopped using it. I'm using Quarry right now. It's okay for steel and stone and gives very little of the better stuff so it's a bit more balanced.

Also mechanoids are made of the stuff so drag them all back to base and chop them up and build swords out of them.

Slime posted:Is there a mod that makes loading up a caravan less loving GODAWFUL. I dunno of any mods since the caravan spot became part of the game, but one method I can think of (and this is just theory, haven't tried it myself yet) is to load up a caravan with the enough food to get to the next hex, go to the next hex, and then launch drop pods full of the stuff you want the caravan to take. Since loading a caravan is instant outside of the homebase you should find that find that much quicker (if more costly in chemfuel and drop pod launchers).

I noticed in the latest version that I can launch incendiary mortars at raiders that are preparing and they won't immediately aggro at me -- they'll take quite a few hits before beginning their assault.

Somebody hosed around with meal stacking, I don't know which mod but now my meals are stacking to like 100. That's not really good because I want to have multiple meal drops (prison, hospital, dining room, work area) and now I can't.

So....jungles. As long as you don't die on the way to, and have the infrastructure for, penoxy-whatever-ine they are super easy mode. Wood everywhere, tons and tons of things to hunt, the vegetation grows back so fast I haven't had to grow hay for my animals and year-round growing season makes food trivial for me and my animals. Guess heat stroke is kind of annoying but eh whatever. Few dusters and cowboy hats, you're good to go.

Nice! A couple close losses but no downed on your side! In regards to stockpiles and stacks, since Extended Storage still evades me, I found a mod that puts a % fullness on stockpiles so they never go above a certain percent of maximum - previously known as Hauling hysteresis, now melded into Rimworld Search Agency mod. So now I’ve got a stack of 750 stir fry meals in the freezer, and a stack of ~75 in the hospital and rec room. The fridges in the other places are critical at 10% stack size and thus far seems to work swell! I may stop trying to use Extended Storage and instead use the shelving furniture mod and creative stacking XXL numbers.... actually that sounds fine, though it’s imposing limits on myself rather than just what the game and mods provide. I had my first stranded refugee event the other day! I get there and see the dude and look around the paused jungle map... hmm, nothing? Interesting... After resuming the game I find that I was wrong. I was just not looking hard enough. For the 20 man hunter squirrels. I ran. Sorry dude.

Did that dropship mod ever update for B18? I feel like getting involved in quests because those new quest rewards, but I really don't feel like dealing with the caravan interface. That and I'm in the tundra so the time limits don't cover the travel time. If not, I'll just build a bunch of drop-pod machines and fling my dudes to the place, and toss them some food when they inevitably run low.

Flesh Forge posted:Cool, I need this, thanks for naming it. Yup. I’m now using it to keep a small store of resources next to crafting benches and toggling shelves and crates for varying percents. At least my stockpile is starting to look pretty :3 I’m not sure about the usefulness of the search feature though. I figure I’ll use it to keep chemfuel in various places and eventually, a decent yet not huge store of mortar shells next to firing area and some more protected within the base. Otherwise I’m planting small amounts of kibble around the base to save hauling animals time. Ever since I downloaded the food choice mod I’m not having issues with animals consuming good things, though I think I’ll make a store of nutrient paste for the critters since the nutrition return is actually pretty good in comparison to kibble. Edit: I figure that’s you and your Steam butt.

The search is nice when you want to get specific about what to smelt and what not to (e.g. you like two specific weapons and want to get rid of all the rest). Some sieging shitbirds came to get owned:

There's a whole bunch of medical related mods out there, so rather than trawl through them I'll ask here. Does anyone have a mod that can repair scars? Preferably one that doesn't also add a ton of other stuff to the game too. I don't mind if there's a cost associated like burning glitterworld medicine or something, I just want options to heal torso scars or fix up parts without needing to replace them entirely.

You could make massive off-shore turbine platforms with that in the archipelago or on the ocean coast. They're relatively protected so don't even need to be walled off (just the access/cable point) and you're not going be using that spot much anyway, so wind turbines won't get blocked by new construction or new growth.
