Set up a zone and draw it over your alcohol stockpile, invert it, and restrict your animals to it. You have to tell them they can't drink alcohol by making sure the alcohol is somewhere they aren't allowed to go.

I haven't found one that sets it for pets by default though so zoning is probably easier than updating every pet by hand. Colonists swap their gear automatically based on what has better stats. You can force them to dump gear by changing their outfit settings to have a minimum durability threshold, though this could leave them naked if you don't have replacement options for every slot.

Forbid your animals from where your stuff is stored Set your default outfit to be between 51-100% quality and they will drop the bad stuff, and grab new stuff You can always micromanage and make them drop anything, and wear specific things

I decided to start a chicken factory farm and is it just me or do they eat more then they produce? Even with a lot of grazing they just rip through my hay and human kibble

Even with a lot of grazing they just rip through my hay and human kibble Correct, all animals eat more than they give back. The benefit is 1) eggs can be used as meat, meaning you don't need to hunt to make meat for fine/lavish meals, and 2) they can eat natural growing grass (assuming they're non-carnivores.

Restrict them away from actual food completely unless it's winter or there's toxic fallout or something, they don't prioritize grazing on their own.

Well my dedicated cleaner had dementia, a bad back and was also frail so i harvested his kidney for the colonist who'd damaged his with psychite and both lungs for another with asthma. The one with asthma was in the room at the time and had -4 for seeing an ally die and +2 for my rival kazuya is dead

In the beginning I keep some chickens around because eggs are less dangerous than throwing rocks/spears at a muffalo and having someone get their face stomped in by a pack of manhunters. In the mid-late game I use chickens (or eventually a nutrient solution unit from androids++) because it's easier to set up the zones, storage points and work orders to mostly-automate itself than micromanaging a hunter pack to take out and butcher a muffalo herd when I would rather pay attention to other stuff.

If you think about it, setting up a sun lamp to produce corn or hay only will produce a shitload of milk/eggs which give everyone a mood boost over simple meals, without risk of danger.

I've got a brawler who I actually want to use in melee. I got lucky and 2 people from the tribe way advanced than me fought each other in my base so I scored a plasma sword from that and I got silver plate armour from a quest. I've just given him 2 bionic legs to get into combat faster but what else does he need? Is the protect the monument quest i'm doing the reason I've seen no others for a while?

Silver armor is very expensive and flashy but does not have good stats. You should sell it and make him better armor. Plasteel plate mail or the best power armor your tech level allows.Jose posted:Is the protect the monument quest i'm doing the reason I've seen no others for a while? No, just chance.

Cease to Hope posted:Change their clothing profile to only allow clothing with 51%-100% durability. (Its 1-100 by default.) I do this and then set my tailor bench to "do until you have 1" on all major clothing pieces (button-down shirt, pants, and duster for workers), then set my incinerator to burn all clothes from 0-50%. Works great in that your colonists all automatically trade out used clothing for fresh while keeping your stockpiles open. Almost perfectly automates the process. The same goes for armor, except that should be smelted for material instead of burned. Taking it a step further with armors, once you have access to deep drills and don't need to worry so much about raw materials, I also set my fabrication benches (at the lowest level) to always "do until you have" at 80 components and 50 advanced components so that they're always being produced. Keeps your crafters from losing skills over time and also makes sure you always have enough of what you need.

At times I set my clothing bills to 10, like when a stupidgigantic cloth harvest comes in, or I haul off 3k elephant leather from a pristine ruin. On that note, all my dudes must be lookin hella fly in all the elephant gear.

Another thing I like to do with fabrication benches is to add multiple "make until you have X" bills. They'll all still turn off when you hit the limit, but if you have multiple bills you can have multiple components in progress and your bench won't sit there useless with an unfinished component on it while one crafter is asleep or whatever. Works well if you divide your pawns into multiple shifts.

kiss me Pikachu posted:Right before the Royalty patch I had an early item stash quest guarded by a pack of man hunting chickens. Sent three guys with middling weapons, took out the marauding chickens and went to open the big building in the middle of the map. Directly behind the door was a very angry Allosaurus that bit off two limbs of the door opener and decapitated the next before being brought down. 10/10 would recommend Dinosauria for surprise big chickens You think that's bad? I downloaded that Monster Hunter Rimworld mod and it bugged out so there was a permanent storm on the map. So I had hygiene installed too. And I noticed that this one ruin (from real ruins) had working latrines in awful one tile large rooms. We're talking, there's the door, there's a tile to go inside, and there's a latrine to poo poo in. To keep my team from going nuts I proceeded to shelter inside the mostly intact building, redoing everything to be modern since I like my colonies to not be stone little shitshacks. But then. But then it happened. One of my colonists went to go to the shitter and opened the door. Out exploded a Kushala Daora from this one tile room, an Elder Dragon sometimes referred to as a god of storms. This massive behemoth about 4x4 tiles large had been chilling in the room, taking increasing angry shits as it rained down increasingly more lightning bolts outside, and slowly but surely going mad with hunger.

I always have my animals disallowed from most indoor areas anyways, including kitchens and dining rooms and storage. I don't want my muffalos making GBS threads on the dining table, I want them out eating grass. Is it common to just let them filth up the place? I thought everyone did this.

dogs and cats are not dirty animals and people frequently just let them walk wherever. this is especially true with dogs as they can be trained to haul. but yeah it's really not hard to just have a zone set for the beer storage and assign them to everywhere EXCEPT THAT PLACE, and that's if you don't want to just assign them to inside the base or inside the compound - which i tend to prefer if you're on a map with anything even approximating dangerous wildlife because your domesticated animals WILL get attacked by a cougar otherwise.

I tend to keep the barnyard animals locked in the barn, but the dogs, cats and other small pets can go anywhere in the base to up their nuzzle chances.

Uncheck the accept favor box and never look back I guess? I like most everything that came with it excepting the royal speech. That is annoying as poo poo. Also for the person asking about zombies, I haven't played with it but I did see what looked like a fairly in depth zombie mod. Night time activity, "hearing" activity, different kinds of zombies like fast/smart/weak ones that call for backup, lumbering boomers that charge at walls etc. It was on my list to try, haven't wanted to take my current set of tribal into crazy land yet. Pheasant just decreed that his dominion has spread out to the entire planet from his orbital space station that was launched but claimed an astronauts life through freezing to death. I thought radiating off heat would be the concern since I saw space radiators and that's how physics works. The astronaut is well preserved until we can launch a shuttle with some heaters.
