Got the new ending, it was very rough at the end there had nonstop pod drops on my base the last few days. Near the end there I only had a handful of pawns left, my lord and the one I was protecting were stuck in a bunker together I had a psychic harmonizer on my lord to help keep the other happy while everyone died outside. I was worried for a bit when my lord's wife died but I had a stash of emergency drugs on hand to help him through that.

I was reading about armor values and how they are one of the best items that scale with quality. I didn't look at the numbers myself because I'm still in the crafting bionic arms and legs for everyone phase. But your pictures showed it pretty well.

Speaking of power armor, all three levels of power armor are reasonably useful. Heavier armor has larger move penalties and higher material costs. Recon, in particular, has no move penalty whatsoever. However, for the helmets, only build the heaviest power helmets you can. Every power armor helmet uses only one advanced component, and there are no penalties for using heavier helmets.

Broken Cog posted:Figured that was the "Cold Bog" or whatever that wet cold biome was. Cold Bog is the equivalent to the uh "Tropical Swamp" biome, where Boreal Forest is the equivalent to Tropical Jungle. Temperate Forest is the middle between them. I guess I was thinking of flu/plague though based on Flesh Forge, and not malaria specifically.

Yeah those swamp/bog areas have a higher incidence of diseases in general, while the drier biomes have a lower frequency, but the specific diseases are set for each biome (not always in a realistic way but there you have it)

Do mechanoids wake on their own if you go too close? I got a cluster that was basically only turrets with a timed activator, so I figured I'd try to wall them in, but they woke up as soon as I started building around them.

They wake up if you build to close. Just like thrumbos, trying to pen them in while sleeping.

Tenzarin posted:Welp I started running out of insect meat for my runaway bear breeding program, time to start chopping up these tribals and feeding the bears. you don't need to chop them, just give them access to the bodies. I was happy to find another Animal Food Restriction mod because I get annoyed when the horses break into the Fine meal storage. Now they respectfully go back to their hay, nutrient paste, or simple meals. If you're using the deep storage mod, the meat hooks are a great place to stack bodies for the animals. You can create a relatively small freezer, stock it with animal fodder, and check them now and again to see if something's gonna rot soon (and forbid the others). This avoids the social malus on the butcher and the colony-wide mood hit from butchering humanlike.

In terms of actual nutrition efficiency you're probably better off just having someone mass produce simple meals and giving the bears access to a freezer full of them.

Got a prisoner watch quest that came with 6 "champions", basically pawns with high melee stats, heavy armor and various decent melee weapons. Now my entire map is free of mechanoid clusters, infestations, and some random predators. Definitely gonna try and set up some melee pawns for the future. Fun to play around with.

 Anyone know what's going on here? As you can see in the top right I have a pretty decent supply of medicine, so that shouldn't be the issue. Do shelves not count as stockpiles?

I was thinking of going back to the mod that stuck a button on nutrient paste dispensers that allowed dispensing of 1 or 5 meals at an immediate cost of power, so you could actually have stacks of nutrient paste without the draft/forbid trick. Animals have no issue with paste. You then have something that all animals can eat (rather than haygrass [maybe turned into kibble] for herbivores and something else for the carnivores), and with haygrass being a 8 day grow for 18 hay (or 0.9 nutrition worth) compared to corn being a 11.3 day grow for 22 (or 1.1 nutrition) that then turned into paste (0.9 nutrition for 0.3 worth of input) puts corn (or rice/potatoes/strawberries) far ahead of hay for feeding animals, if you feed them nutrient meals made out of it and you have larger animals eating it. If I've done my rough math right, you need animals utilizing around 0.5 nutrition of the paste meal for corn usage to equal haygrass usage. However, the storage ability of haygrass remains a nice bonus and paste meals spoil fast, though I don't think there'd be huge issue waiting for the first animal starvation pop up to throw out a few stacks that your haulers bring over. It also means you are growing something your colonists can eat should you need it.

They spawned in the throne room, the research lab, and the hospital. Those rooms had no chance.  The first wave comes.  I pushed them back.  More come.  Even more come.  Then my game crashed. The lost of the throne room is most likely too much to bear.

No not that I'm aware of, they were everyone on the map. Running a monogender colony based around a crashed ship part that just screams at people constantly is a fun idea

Right, and the incident is aware of colonist gender and never, ever gives you one for the opposite gender if you have all boys/all girls. This is a new situation.

Finished cobbling together a modpack for 1.1, started running my customary Randy Savage. Did the Deserter as soon as it popped for the extra colonist, figuring I'd mend relations with the Empire later and really how bad could pissing off the Empire be??? A season later my dirthole with 6 colonists, wooden walls, and a trap corridor for defenses gets hit by a siege consisting of 10 power armored pawns, 7 of which have shield belts and monoswords and the 3 ranged ones have charge lances and charge rifles.  I try the ol' "bait them into charging through my trap corridor" trick, which works on about half of them - the rest go straight for my wooden wall and punch through it with trivial ease. My desperate militia, armed with some old bolt actions, SMGs, and carbines, has no loving chance of even hurting one of these dickheads. They start carving my defenders up like Christmas ham and only the fact that half of them died in the trap corridor causes the raid to break - they carry off my hi tech research bench and half of my weapons from my downed militia(because, you know, they need the weapons). Somehow, no one died, but I lost several limbs. I'm living in terror of the Empire right now in a way that no raid faction has really made me fear before. Their average soldier is geared like an endgame player colonist and the raid builder will eagerly outnumber you with this caliber of troop. Low tech gunfire splashes off them like rain and they have the best weapons possible. Kanos fucked around with this message at 22:39 on Mar 10, 2020 |

I love how the throne room is considered a social space, so you often get people getting drunk by the harp or lighting up a blunt on the throne.
