Best bit is that I finally get to put my recently built super jail to good use!  I mean I have no desire to recruit any more colonists and a few of my dudes have some nasty injuries... guess it's time to do this organ harvesting lark I hear so much about.

vandalism posted:I love this game. I am taking a writing workshop class and played a game of rimworld, made some comments and recorded my experience, and then wrote a short story based on what happened. It was really fun, actually. I got some really cool characters. I took the first 3 random ones I got and also picked a spot on the map at random. I altered what happened a little bit, but the storyteller part of this game has so many cool events that can shape what happens. I tried to incorporate their backgrounds and their traits into them as characters. I think it turned out really well and I enjoyed it a ton. HelloSailorSign posted:Yeah I’m working on a Rimworld inspired story as well. You two should definitely pick up Psychology if you haven't already. It's basically made specifically for people like you.

Anticheese posted:What are the species mods you're using? In this colony I currently have the following additional species: Orassans https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1180673498 Please ignore how blatanty furry this is it's a good species based on cat people that are faster but weaker than humans and have a greater tolerance for the cold due to being... well... furry. It also has some cool weapons and some less than cool buildings. Androids https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1386412863 They don't sleep and come in different flavours! Crystal https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1338611415 Rock people! Honestly not that different from humans except they have an ability to make a big circle of diamonds appear around that act as a weak wall. Lizardman https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1380836542 I really like this one. As they are cold blooded they don't handle the cold well at all. I think they have a minimum comfortable temperature of something like +12C so be sure to wrap them up before sending them outside! Mantodeans https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1294507772 These guys are super rad. Insect based race that doesn't eat veg (they eat kibble though, generally do that to provide food for them) and tend to cause a lot of cuts in melee combat! Their anatomy is very different from the usual so can be difficult to replace organs/limbs. In addition to these I also have another species loaded but I haven't encountered any of them yet. Tree People https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1403998409 They are highly flammable! Jarf fucked around with this message at 12:15 on Jun 16, 2018 |

Orassans is blatantly furry but also blatantly OP (intentionally, it's a point of pride) and the mod author is a weirdo.

The technology that comes with them is OP so I tend to avoid it except for the pew pew laser guns. They're rare enough that I used the hell out of the one rifle I stumbled across. As for the actual species I put bionic legs on my cat hauler and now I want to paint him blue and rename him "Sanic" cos he is fast af.

I like the Orassans because they're pretty much the only faction that regularly starts off at least tolerating me. Last time I played I got attacked by the GDI, NOD, and the FBI all in a row within the first month

Warmachine posted:I did a paper for an undergraduate behavioral economics class where I attempted to do just what you are suggesting, finding a way to quantify social constructs and their 'value' in society. The game would need a much more robust reputation system to keep track of the various dimensions of social interaction, quantify them, and add them to the 'value' of your colony when it comes to how it triggers events. You could ultimately boil ethics down to a colony wealth value if you really tried. What is lost in such a translation is left as an exercise to the reader. I don't imagine you could completely quantify it or at least, I think trying to do so would make the game annoying and make people disagree with how you did it. But, I think there's room for a more broad strokes approach that helps to give people a push towards roleplaying a little bit more. As it stands the game just doesn't give a poo poo what you do with your colony, it has absolutely no impact on anyone else unless you start killing people from other factions, it doesn't exist in a society at all. But if people come to visit and you're all wearing human leather coats and eating funny meat then you'd expect some kind of reaction, I guess.

I'm trying to start a game with the Lord of the Rim stuff, also orcs, kobolds, mantis people, vampires, werewolves, and lizardmen. It keeps crashing on world gen though, trying to figure out what's causing it. I took out all the tech mods since I'm using the Third Age limits.

Ok, here we go. Randy Intense, Permadeath, and instead of doing anything akin to planning, I picked a random spot and picked the first three pawns on the list in a "Colonization Crash Course" scenario. RF Scenarios for reference. The map I landed on had this rather nice, if a bit wet, structure already built, so I figured I'd just move in. The fact that none of my colonists know how to cook (all 0 Cooking skill) makes this a pretty good approximation of that first time you were living on your own in college. At least they can grow rice.

growing trees is stupid as gently caress anyway so that change is more confusing in terms of why it was done than anything else. the power grid nerfs are the ones that are gonna hurt the most. passive cooler is whatever, but not being able to get a freezer going on day 2 is going to be a real issue. i think it's a fair question what an early game build is going to look like now, which I'm sure is the point.

Hmmm, what do I like and not like... Skill decay frustrates me so I'll have that modded out immediately, especially for animals. A lot of these tweaks seem redundant thanks to the mods I have installed. "-Mods page now has a search bar so you can easily find one mod in your list of hundreds" aha, good. "-Enemies no longer use single use rocket launchers during caravan ambushes" ahahahahah was this an option??? "-Fixed issues with animals sometimes randomly opening doors in combat and allowing enemies in" THANK GOD I had to create zones for animals so they wouldn't go near doors during combat ...huh. All in all I'm generally happy with the changes, a lot of these tweaks seem like they'd be stuff I'll enjoy. It helps a lot that I know modding will happen so I can just erase the stuff I don't like. Caravaning seems a lot more viable, bridges sans-mods is neat, and there's just a lot of little changes that feel good. The real question: can I finish the game I'm playing now before 1.0 drop?

Been messing around with mods... there are a ton of them that seem required for fun gameplay. So many quality of life things like circuit fuses and pick up and haul and search agency and hauling construction delivery... On the downside, why the gently caress does two colonists wearing the same outfit give a mood malus? Oh hey, our outfits match, I am now super unhappy. loving stupid

It's added by Psychology and you can turn it off in the mod options. I imagine it's to try to give you a reason to actually use different clothing types but it just gets in the way more than anything.
