I prefer to turn my enemies into compost to till my fields.

Once that’s done - which will take a long time - I’ll probably feed them to my hauling timber wolves (and hopefully hauling Utah raptors by then!)

In the past I’d capture every downed enemy and release those I didn’t need. With tribal raiders sending huge raids I simply don’t have the resources or spots to put them all someplace, so after a fight my two blood thirsty colonists get queued orders to murder everyone I don’t intend to recruit. They get SO HAPPY for three days after every raid, stacking both, “killed someone x5” (+21) and “saw someone die x5” (+12)

by Roger Hargreaves
I have a tamed Thrumbo. His name is Fudd. He got tamed after I murdered him in the early game to try and get some dosh but he only got KO'd after tearing the arm off a guy. Said guy was the animal tamer and had since bonded with Fudd. Fudd instantly joined me after being mediced back up to life. Sadly he has some brain damage because he took s revolved to the noggin. He also had a scar on his eye from a knife and his horn is chipped.

He is still only 1/7 hauling trained because of his low low low percentage to get anything. Good news is though I got a mod that now let's my guy be a knight and ride Fudd into battle.

I have the RimGenetics mod, which lets you, through a convoluted process, turn dog-type corpses into leg speed implants. I also have a double population storyteller, so I do what any self respecting min-maxer would and raise a stable of labs and huskies. Fast forward to three years in and I have approximately 40 dogs, even after I've been periodically murdering 90% of the males. Well my lovely laptop starts chugging, so i decide to restrict them, puppies and all, to a 5x5 freezer next to my genetic workshop. Not wanting to be too cruel i set them all to be humanely slaughtered. Kia sets out to methodically go about this nasty business alone. That's when I found out that after witnessing X number of their comrades being slaughtered the dogs all booked it, exiting en masse out of my freezer in every cardinal direction. I was so amazed by this new behavior that I failed to notice one door being held open, which spoiled half my genetic vial stockpile.

But I had the last laugh, and every colonist for the foreseeable future will have wolf leg implants.

Is there a mod that will keep dogs out of my ambrosia? I set my dogs to the Home area so they can help with hauling. I don't really mind if they eat my food out of my freezer. But ambrosia has a nutrition value of .2 so the dogs eat it.

I could make a new animal zone that's "Home" without the ambrosia freezer, but then I've got to micromanage that zone. Is there some mod with a container that animals can't get into, or a door I can lock so no animals can go through?

It's easier to draw where you don't want your animals and then invert that zone. I'll let them be everywhere except where you don't want them. It takes seconds to do, so unless you're changing the storage warehouse constantly it shouldn't be hard or onerous to manage.

Don't let animals into your freezers at all, that's pretty gross.

Let them eat cobraflesh and alphabeaver kibble all they want, not the succulent elk flesh you've worked so hard to hunt.

Animals ain't got no mood bar.

I want to play this game like minecraft, I'm digging in for the long haul, I'm making a town. This is our new "forever home". Zero interest even in the whole leaving the map aspect of the game too, it always seems like way more trouble than it's worth.

Really would love more content from the mindset that you're building a permanent home. I'd love to do poo poo on the overmap, but once again under the assumption that we're here to settle and make things less lovely. Give me more diplomacy options, let's form some federations, conquer some neighbours.

It is technically possible to eliminate all of the pirate settlements on the map, at which point raids from that faction will stop spawning. You'll still get mechanoid raids though.

This is one reason why you probably don't want to play 100% generated planet, since having to eliminate raiders on the other side of the world is a bit strange.

Not that I've found, but it's also way less complicated than Skyrim. For the most part you can just mash everything together and be fine. The mods that require certain orders will say so on their workshop page or in their documentation somewhere.

The modding community in this game has taken major steps to make it so easy to mod. It took a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to make it so you can just slap any mod you want in pretty much willy-nilly.

I use the road mod to build roads to the nearby friendly settlements, Rimquest to have the local traders bring me news of new things, Sparkling Worlds to add a few world missions (still GO HERE AND KILL OR GATHER OR BOTH), and build a massive fortified compound complete with steel security fence with interspersed concrete "tower" with embrasures and moats while inside, I build a nice hotel for guests (with a few dedicated entertainment/artist or specific crafting colonists who basically live in the hotel who rush off to welcome new guests) and a beautiful nursery/daycare area for kids as my colonists start making babies.

Also fission reactors and bionics.

Doing it on land is actually pretty easy if you build around a geyser, all I have here is ice (which can be used for wall construction, Medieval Times) and a little bit of fishing (from Rainbeau's Bridges). No metal, no chunks, no heat, nothing to build traps from except bone :black101:

Probably, but i, and therefore you, can't be hosed to look for it.

Tldr; dudes couldn't be bi in this game (less than one percent chance or something), and the developer justified it as "i pulled the stats that the sexuality chance functions work on from real life sources! That means there ARE no bi dudes in real life" (an actual statement he made).

Some dumb chick ran a (i want to say rps article, but could easily and probably am, wrong) about how "fun indie game dev hates gays", he posted a whole bunch of evidence to show he had conversed with her and she had deliberately misconstrued what she "journalised" on.

Great post! Thanks for contributing. :getout:

e: for context I'm a bisexual dude myself and while the whole debacle was stupid and embarrassing as hell to watch, it ultimately seemed like it was just a case of a mildly crappy reporter doing mildly crappy journalism on a mildly crappy game dev and then a shitload of very crappy people trying to use the resulting article as an excuse to trot out their very crappy talking points. It was ridiculous and bad and we should avoid revisiting it.

As a bi dude as well (thus canceling out your "my opinion is more valid because im more affected by it than others!!"), i also think the whole thing was dumb, but worth a mention to the new folks who don't get the contextual history of some things previously loled over in this, a games thread in a comedy forum relating to a game that had comedy happen relating to it!

On that note the game considers "hot bunking" as a form of room sharing. That is, put one colonist on the night shift and another on the day shift, assign them both the same double bed, and they'll be mad because they have to share a room and sleep with eachother - even if they never actually do.

Not talking about this at all is probably the best idea, but I nevertheless feel the need to point out that the original offending article was perfectly reasonable and fair outlining of the dumb gender issues that were in the game at the time. I know we collectively can't really handle a discussion on this subject, so I'll leave it there, but regardless of how you feel it's important to remember things accurately.

Also Tynan did eventually back off and essentially concede the point.
