Part of the fix for this is job priorities - some of those pawns shouldn't have Construction active, or should have it at like, priority 3 or 4. You could also try limiting them to certain areas, which I do sometimes to make sure that like, my doctor isn't loving off across the map to try to pick up 17 silver when she should be tending patients.

Oh yeah, I've totally done this. For clarification, the leaving a patient to go pick up 5 bucks things, I'm not talking about the game. :V

My autopsy mod seems to be broken; I get bodies on the table, the doc does his thing, but there's no organs dropped. The bodies say things are removed in the health tab, but again, nothing anywhere.

Turn your people into bionic demi-gods that only take 10 seconds to cross the entire map with 500%+ movement, or you could have people dedicated/prioritized to building and farming unless you are trying to have them level up various skills for backup or rushing work.

The bodies say things are removed in the health tab, but again, nothing anywhere. This information isn't visible anywhere in game that I can recall, but there's a time limit that starts after the pawn dies, and ends depending on the level of your autopsy table. It starts at a couple of hours or so and goes up from there, but I don't remember the exact numbers. The mod still lets you perform the autopsy job even if this limit is passed, you just get nothing from it. Edit: Assuming you are using the "harvest organs post-mortem" mod and not some other one.

Also you aren’t guaranteed organs, with the odds going up with the research levels and medical skill.

Huh, I don't normally bother with stripping corpses before tossing them into the incinerator but it looks like utility items like smokepop belts and shieldbelts don't count as tainted even if the wearer dies with them on. Gotta remember that if I happen to kill a raider who's wearing a low-shield pack and dies before he can deploy it.

Alpha Animals gives a great reason to strip corpses if you’re raising Angel Moths for silk and need some clothes to feed them.

is there a mod that turns 'abandoned' settlements into AI settlements of your faction? i saw the Empire mod but it looks a little too heavy for what i want, which is literally just the settlement turning into a faction base that you could trade with etc

QuarkJets posted:This is anecdotal but it does seem like proximity to factions effects what kind of visitors and raids you get, this is especially noticeable when you settle near friendly tribal villages versus more advanced settlements. I don't know what the rules are, but proximity seems to matter. My best base location ever, I was between two warring factions. They'd show up, have fights, and leave corpses and their valuable belongings behind.

Started a new save file with highest Medical at 5. My sole captured pawn has now had his infected foot amputated, which went wrong and removed his leg, and three separate attempts to install a peg leg, which left him with significant injuries that have now healed. He's going to be renamed "Gimpy" which frankly is an improvement on his birth name, "Olga".

I haven't played this game in years, is there a general Prepare Carefully preset that everyone likes? I don't remember what's good and bad. I can't find any presets to download either, which seems strange to me.

Iirc, presets save colonists too. But a good general rule of thumb is to emulate vanilla. Give everyone a starting weapon, ideally a Heavy SMG which is apparently super high DPS? 50-ish survival meals, which will last part of a season to give you time to set up and harvest some rice An assortment of steel and silver. I usually run with 750 steel and 500 silver which helps a lot early on Like 30-40 cloth so you can build proper beds on the first or second day Parkas and tuques for everyone if and only if you're mad enough to embark in the arctic

You can do this but the colonist will complain all the time about the colony being super wealthy even though it's just him and a dead lizard he just punched to death, so you need to give him all the positive mood traits you can or he will throw fits.

If you want a good option for both this and piling on the super soldier aspect, add the witcher mod and give him the Trial of The Elders condition. Bam ultimate hellsoldier who doesnt care if he is literally at 0 mood.

I've been playing with Combat Extended which has significantly better out of the box compatibility than it used to, works with the vanilla extended stuff and androids/SOS2, so it makes for quite a good tech/tactical combat based game. SOS2 also seems to have added a bunch of really late game content too. Unrelated:  bible of crazy pasta  larry
