I think he only did that for the no-walls challenge. Theoretically they were still pawns he could have rolled. He was really min-maxing the starting pawns under the assumption that the challenge was probably impossible anyway.

He definitely doesn't do it most times. If he's doing a challenge scenario he might tweak things.

Most of my base is throwing the rager of the century in our bar so nobody was nearby when an arctic coyote started going for Novella, one of our Persian Cats, and I feared the worst. I had someone vaguely sober sprinting over as fast as possible but uh... turned out it wasn't really necessary. Novella had apparently gained a lot of melee skill since the last time she tangled with the local wildlife.



Not only that she managed to stay conscious long enough to stumble into the hospital and collapse into a pet med bed. Doesn't really matter that the defenses are currently unmanned because the human colonists are all getting smashed and putting each other in the hospital with constant bar fights, we've got this cat.

Also lol at just how much barfing is going on. Whole base is gonna be hungover as gently caress for the next day or two. they have +6 from a banger feast though so once the hangovers wear off they're all gonna be remembering how great it was for like two weeks.

Slap down a few latrines in individual cubbies (1 for every two or three or so pawns is fine), a few wash tubs in other cubbies (likewise), a well, and designate a rubbish zone for waste a good distance away from the well. None of this needs to be heated. This will tide you over until you can afford to build some proper plumbing. Dubs is super easy.

Weirdly the wash tubs don't actually need privacy - they act like sinks. Colonists don't like public making GBS threads but they'll happily spongebath themselves in the main dining room.

There is a burn pit piece of furniture that should be placed a bit away from the colony; this can be used to dispose of the sewage (dumping stockpiles do not hold it by default and it needs to be toggled on) and also as a crude corpse incinerator if fuelled

It's extremely Rimworld that the poop from Hygiene is incredibly valuable and shouldn't be wasted because it has multiple uses. If you have Rimefeller you can just convert it straight to shitloads of chemfuel.

Oh yeah absolutely hang on to your barrels of poo poo. Years from now you'll be able to convert it into like ten times more chemfuel than you probably should, it fully rules. Even with gas-hog vehicles I was swimming in the stuff before I even got a Rimefeller refinery set up.

I've been wondering for a couple days now why my hard drive seemed to be getting filled up, a few gigabytes a day that I couldn't account for. I finally ran Wiztree and discovered that it was the Rimworld log file, which had ballooned to over 7GB. After nearly choking Notepad++ to death, I discovered what had caused the log to go insane: one of my Raptor Shrimp had somehow, for some reason, equipped a Shield Belt. The game did not like this, and it was filling the log with errors essentially screaming that SHRIMP MUST NOT WEAR BELT every tick, forever.

Edit: Update, taking away the shrimp's belt somehow caused every animal, robot, and vehicle to be added to the colonist list, which caused a cascade of errors that turned off all work assignments and left the entire colony wandering idle. I may have to murder this shrimp.

Yeah, I love Dubs Hygiene, but the "poo poo-to-chemfuel" conversion ratio is a bit too generous. If you have a big colony, you can cover all of your chemfuel needs just by releasing and converting the contents of your septic tanks.

Sep 20, 2003

do not hoard the barrels of sewage. use them. you can always get more, especially if you turn it on for livestock and get a big ranch going

and don't kick over barrels in a river. kick them over in your prison, to help converting the miserable occupants.

Kanos

Eh, it's not really "hoarding". They don't take up much room, so you can just throw them in a corner somewhere and let them accumulate until you can spend it on something actually worthwhile.

The normal poop-to-chemfuel rate is way too generous as it is, so if you turn on livestock poop I imagine a ranch produces more chemfuel than a Rimfeller refinery.

I did a no reroll run this time and got two Pyros. Last time one of mine decided to have an episode I arrested him and immediately released him and it worked.

I was worried that he would just leave the colony when I released him, is that something that can happen?

No if you release a prisoner they return to their faction, which is always going to be you if they were a full non-slave colonist before being arrested. You will inflict a “was imprisoned” mood debuff on the guy though.

If you’re running biotech you can negate the pyromaniac trait by giving the pawn the pyrophobia gene.

New naked brutality run. Georgy starts off near a cave and gets set up fairly decently fairly quickly.

A 4 year-old begs to join the colony. Well, he'll clean and haul so sure. I don't even look at him, just tell him to get to work.

Later that night I get raided, just me and the kid. I have a shooting of 3 and the raider hunkering down behind a rock and me being behind an embrasure means we shoot at each other a LOT. No one gets hit. The firefight goes for like 60 seconds and then I call the kid whose name, by the way, is Fabio.

Now Fabio has a machine pistol he got off a dead trader, and his bedroom is about fifty feet from the firing line and he was fast asleep. So he gets out of bed, staggers up to the firing line, fires one burst, and takes the dude's head off his shoulders.

Turns out, Fabio is a Hussar.

The next person to show up is a 5 year-old Yttakin and then a 3 year-old Drakonori. We got a base with one normal adult, a child supersoldier, a Wookie, and a dragonwyrm girl.

This... this is a weird colony. Georgy and the Kids!

Washtubs are a hit to cleanliness and need to be refilled now and again; a primitive water well functions as a place to wash, get water, never runs out, and doesn't impact cleanliness. Just may be limited in location due to water sources.

This is the opposite of feeding cats to coyotes tweet. The coyote (warg) learned to join the colony to eat cats (kids) for free.
