I'm looking to evaluate the effects of some mod equipment with unusual modifiers, wondering if there's a nicely scientific melee testing setup some streamer or what-have-you has done that I can use as my baseline.

Rimworld showed up in my "Steam Replay 2022" as one of my most played games. It was the only one to have a tagline, and the tagline wasquote:You've spent at least some time in 2022 figuring out if organ harvesting was worth the effort.

 My colony of mythological figures finally left the rim to join the Imperial Fleet, and I got one final shot of the group before they boarded the shuttle. Everyone except Mercury who boarded the shuttle and refused to help any of the animals. Even the High Stellarch, who the day before popped the melons of four dying pig men with perverse glee, went into the barn to carry a baby chick to safety. The final day was kind of nice and quiet. And it ended movie perfect - the cat people and their countess lifted off and flew into the setting sun.

I just noticed too that you've got research benches sharing a room with an art bench and a stonecutter's table. Both of those drop cleanliness by 5, which slows down research benches.

I'm annoyed that workbenches will let me set a zone to drop off the end products, but not shelves. I have a one-tile stockpile zone for raw food next to my kitchen (pineapples from vanilla plants expanded, so one stack makes loads of meals), and a shelf for them to put it down and keep cooking. The shelf has a lower priority than the shelves in the freezer so someone'll haul it over. I would *like* my cook to put it down somewhere that can store more than one stack. Are there any mods or have I missed a handy button?

Inexplicable Humblebrag posted:chunks, too, bring down cleanliness Lysidas posted:why is your stuff just sitting on the floor instead of packed thrice densely on some nice pretty shelves!? Yeah the answer to all of this at this point is: it doesn't matter. With 350 mods all of that stuff is solved by other stuff. I start neolithic and then slow down research speed on top of that by 0.5x. If I want to research at 3k% speed I can deck one pawn out with legendary bionics. Who cares about an unclear research area (never mind that I had already moved research to it's own dedicated room by the time of your posts). Everything is already solved so I just kinda make fun out of other things. What's the point of putting everything on a shelf if you're using a stack mod and you'll never run out of space anyway? etc. I still have fun with the different mod combinations and permadeath before getting to that godly power stage so it's all good. This also obviously contributes to the lack of creativity and desire to make things look cool but using some of the suggestions from earlier I'm excited to focus on that for my next run.

Related to research, inspired by the mr.streamer's rimworld rpg campaign, I've been having a lot of fun locking all research behind techprints with Lost Technology Core. It forces me to go do quests and caravan out and it stops me from powergaming to level up faster.

You want in order of importance: Food Beds A clean kitchen Laboratory A rec room Workshop Whatever else A laboratory should be extremely clean and dedicated to science.

Your laboratory can also double as your hospital - there's no reason to not consolidate the two together.

I usually put a little refrigerator with herbal medicine (or a stack of medicine) in my apartment buildings for first aid, and just treat them in their beds. Bedrooms are almost always very clean, which is the biggest determinant of infections in my experience. Once you get to the point where you can build a dedicated hospital, you're probably in the "I don't think I can lose" stage anyways. I never thought to put a medical bed in the lab, though!

Install a mod to add glass walls, put the research benches on the opposite side of the wall as the hospital beds. Turn it into an operating theater/research hospital outright.

I'll tend colonists in their own beds in the early game but having a hospital becomes useful in the midgame when you can reasonably expect three or four guests needing patching up at a time but already transitioned away from barracks housing. Hospital beds are also great for their surgery bonus when you're installing bionics but that's probably in the can't lose phase you mentioned.

Bedrooms are almost always very clean, which is the biggest determinant of infections in my experience. A "dedicated hospital" is "a clean/sterile room with a bunch of beds in it". It's not really a big investment of resources beyond the sterile flooring(which you'll want for your lab and/or biosculptors if you're using them).

Usually right after a battle your pawns will be bleeding all over the place so their bedrooms will become very dirty if you don't have a hospital. It's easier to clean up a hospital, and the sterile floor gives you some buffer against infection chance - plus you want to start using bionics long before you've snowballed to victory, all the more reason to go for hospital beds

You can also build your hospital close to your killbox entrance, minimizing the amount of time it takes to get wounded pawns to safety/treatment. As a bonus, you can also build your prison adjacent to your hospital for the same benefits for prisoners.

No Default Shelf Storage Character Editor - Usually I just use this for setting up my starting pawns but can be used mid-gameplay too Smarter Construction - This comes in handy if you're building thick walls, pawns will no longer seal themselves into tiny tombs by mistake Replace Stuff - This lets you "construct" walls directly on top of old walls, when the new wall finishes the old wall gets deconstructed. So you can keep a room fully enclosed while you replace what its walls are made of. Also lets you place walls on minable rocks Graze Up - While grazing, animals will remove a percentage of a plant's growth (proportional to the nutrition they consumed) instead of always destroying the plant outright, and animals can eat plants that were recently snowed-over Allow Tool - Probably my most important mod, it adds a bunch of really useful things Auto-Extract Genes - This adds a checkbox to the health tab to designate a pawn for gene extraction whenever their genes finish regrowing Self Lit Hydroponics QuarkJets fucked around with this message at 06:56 on Jan 11, 2023 |

HolHorsejob posted:What are some good quality of life mods? Auto Links - adds links in an item or recipe's description to various items or recipes related to it. Random's Gene Assistant - (Biotech) Adds color to the background of a gene based on whether or not you have it in your gene banks. Research Whatever - When a research completes, pawns pick the cheapest one to start automatically. Useful if, like me, you forget to assign a new one, which has lead to me being surprised in multiple games by researching stew cooking. Pocket Sand - This lets you equip multiple weapons and swap between them with one click. Most recently useful when an imperial trooper armed with a triple rocket launcher landed to help defend me against a mech cluster. I gave her a pistol from my own stocks so she wouldn't have had to run up and start punching robots after her initial shot. Combat Extended compatible. [GMT] Trading Spot - Put down a marker for trading caravans and visitors to hang out. No more trampling your flower gardens and mucking up your shower rooms. Unless you're into that. Enter Here - Put down a marker on the edge of the map where traders and visitors will try to enter. Has options that let you make raiders come in from that spot, too. Craft With Color - Dye and style an item directly from the production bill. Includes full RGB color.

Okay so! I'm playing wretches, who are unstable lab experiments who get weird random genes daily. (from alpha genes) I am also playing WVC-genes which has an armless gene. That causes pawns to break/remove their arms via hediff. No way to undo this outside of swapping to artificial limbs or other super expensive methods. I fixed it once with character editor, no big deal.... my pawns rolled it again and again

Unfortunately it's kind of hard to avoid winding up swastikesque with patterns like these. Fortunately there's I think four variant options to an optimal layout so you can avoid it if you place them carefully.
