Ashsaber posted:Also, droids are kinda neat in that they're relatively cheap, just taking a bunch of steel and components, but their skills range from 4-8, they logically can't do social, intellectual or art, and their skills never improve. They can be a decent grunt force for mining or plant work early, but later you would want to only use them for hauling or cleaning, since the quality of anything they do would be sure to suffer. Droids actually do increase in skill, they just don't have any passion for anything. Sometimes I get a droid and give it a medical training serum to have a 24/7 doctor, to handle things like giving patients flu meds and poo poo.

It's pretty easy - Rimworld modding is pretty robust in that it's hard to break the game or make anything weird happen. All you gotta do is subscribe to the mod in Steam, then once it downloads, run Rimworld and activate it from the Mods menu. Mods are loaded top to bottom based on the list in the Mods menu, so you just need to make sure critical mods (stuff like HugsLib and etc.) get loaded first. If you have Mod B that depends on Mod A, make sure Mod A is closer to the top of the list than Mod B.

Danaru posted:I usually play in arctic areas but I have so many mods that raiders have no problem finding a clothing choice to keep them warm enough to survive. I'm honestly worried that there might be a clothing/material combo that can make absolute zero comfortable, which will make me a little annoyed I've been wondering about this - I've played a few very hot biome (like, temperatures of 140) games recently where I get jack poo poo for raiders or caravans - I've noticed this is much less of a problem in cold areas, presumably because insulating clothing is cheap. Why don't I ever eventually see raids with power-armored dudes, then? Basic power armor is good for heat and I have some modded options that are even better at cooling. Am I just not playing long enough to get raids that scale up enough to spend the points on power armor?

Tiny Bug Child posted:I just added a bunch of mods and started a new colony, and now my game crashes about every 30 minutes. Is there a better way to find the problem other than disabling each mod individually and running the game for a while? I'm pretty sure you can activate some kind of debug logging that should at least point you in a direction, assuming it's one of the mods directly causing an issue and not something putting the core game in a freaked-out state.

Donkringel posted:Also as a side note I love the Android mod. The Android printer require 20 nutrition (20 meals), 20 components and a lot of plasteel. Whenever I need a new Android I Huck a raider corpse or three in there and then it gets to printing. Still waiting for the Androids to collapse screaming about ghosts, past lives or voices not their own talking to them. So far so good! The Androids are really nice but I kind of hate how the printer lets you basically customize a tailor-made super-ideal colonist. I switch between using that and the other Droids mod, with the five tiers of androids, which is kind of underpowered for what it is - you use a bunch of plasteel and even an AI core and get a colonist with no skill higher than 4 and a passion for Growing :/

Flesh Forge posted:Rainbeau's Fertile Fields mod adds an item called Rotted Mush, left over when food of various sorts rots, so you can do something with it (make compost/make fertilizer) rather than just have it go poof. The thing is, animals find it super delicious: Rotted Mush does an interesting thing when it completely rots (i.e. its durability goes to 0). It becomes another Rotted Much. Great.

Dubs' Bad Hygiene is one of my favorite mods, it makes the game feel far more real and adds a lot of good stuff beyond just "pawns poo poo now" - heating and cooling, water management and crop irrigation, even litter boxes.

Has anyone been having issues with Hospitality guests lately? Two guests with inventories full of pemmican are just milling around my kitchen/entrance. They're not eating and not sleeping until exhausted and immediately getting up after a few hours (and not using the beds I have set for them). They don't seem to be interacting with doors unless I hold them open, but even with doors held open they're not using my beds, using a table to eat, leaving, etc.

HelloSailorSign posted:Usually traders hang around too long if one of their party becomes downed or incapacitated, or sometimes if enough are sleeping. Otherwise, could be a new mod that’s borking something. I've been having the same problem lately. There's also an issue with Hospitality guests and occasionally I'll have two pawns who get stuck "hanging out" with each other who won't work or handle any of their needs until they fall unconscious. Originally I did some research and thought it was Android Tiers causing it. I'm pretty sure it's Hospitality or Psychology at this point, though after removing Android Tiers the problem became less frequent? e: Dismiss Traders doesn't work, either. The pawn I tell to dismiss them runs up to the trader and then immediately fucks off. And now that I think of it, I had one raid that had a similar problem - they were waiting to attack, then they all starved to death. death cob for cutie fucked around with this message at 01:57 on Nov 19, 2018 |

HelloSailorSign posted:Do you use the expanded doors mod? That one I think caused some interesting issues with muffalo trying to return to the barn for me, as well as made guests do funny poo poo when I restricted their movement areas. The one that adds 1x2, 1x3, and curtains? Or the one that adds blast doors? Or are those the same? I use both, so... Guests have been having difficulty with doors, maybe, but not colonists. Can you post a modlist and a debug log from your game for me? I'm trying to track this down, it's a real pain in the rear end - my current colony was going fine until people started flipping out. I've also had parties start to go on way too long. I suspect it's Psychology affecting how the game makes pawn AI work when two pawns interact socially.

metasynthetic posted:Is there any trick to finding a good mountain base location? One with more than 1/3 of the map or so as a mountain. I've never done a mountain bunker base and want to try one, and I'm trying to pick starting hexes that are mountainous and completely surrounded by other mountainous / impassable terrain tiles but i keep getting the one sided wall type maps. There's a mod that I can't quite think of the name of that lets you customize generated terrain - I have mine tweaked so mountainous tiles are ever so slightly more mountainous, leading to more.dense concentrations of stone. You can also tweak things like what percentage of the map is ocean on coastal tiles, ore density, etc.

I keep switching between Androids and Android Tiers and I can never decide which I prefer. I like the droids from Androids and ho both droids/androids can live forever without food, which can be useful. being able to crap out semi-disposable droids to smelt slag/smooth floors/carry SMGs to repel tribals is nice, and being able to customize a brand new colonist is nice too; it's also super easy to get an android with like 15 shooting and melee and 12 in construction or medical, good traits, etc. which can be a Bit Much

OwlFancier posted:Top tip: produce AP ammo as soon as you can, and don't try fighting centipedes with anything less than a PTRS because nothing else will even scratch the bastards, they're literal robot tanks. You can, however, shoot their eyes out with enough volume of small arms fire so if you're desperate that's an option I guess. my first game with CE I ended up with a centipede whose optics and other non-vital bits were either blown out with 40mm grenade shrapnel or FMJ from a squad of heavy SMG-carrying droids. it limped around my front entrance until I crafter finally got out of the hospital, made more grenades and reloaded/manned the AGS turret, blowing it to poo poo with two more bursts also, a fully automatic grenade launcher is a good idea for base defense until enemies get too close

Does a hull piece have to be on a hardpoint to connect it to a ship, or can they just be adjacent?

CE question: what's the best (cheapish) weapon to give my non-combat colonists for emergency events where I don't/can't get turret coverage? (drop pod raids, infestations, etc.) Infestations are the big one; most of my indoor walls are actually CE embrasures, so if bugs appear inside one of my storage areas/workshop rooms/etc. I can just draft all my colonists and have them blow the bugs away with massed firepower. I've been giving them heavy SMGs with AP ammo but megaspiders and their armor are proving to be somewhat resistant to them when spawning en masse. I know the .500 handcannon will blow limbs clean off of pawns fairly easily, but I haven't actually looked at its values. Pump shotguns with slugs, maybe? 5.56 carbines? I'm using CE and the non-Federation Rimsenal mods, but most of the Rimsenal stuff is a bit spendy to build if I'm outfitting Everyone.

OwlFancier posted:It also depends how much bulk/mass you're willing to sacrifice, because it impacts work speed/movement speed. So a mac 10 is a great sidearm because it doesn't impact their work or move speed much and can spray bullets at poo poo long enough to get away. This is one of the reasons I'm considering the handcannon over something big like a shotgun or rifle; I have lots of low-tier androids running around doing scutwork, so it's not like one individual colonist hauling 4 stacks of corn instead of 5 or w/e is a huge efficiency loss, but it does add up over time. ooh, I can't check (at work), can you get explosive rounds in .500 or 12 gauge? that might be a decent option

Had a raid going badly for me, radioed up my allies... who arrived via drop pod in the one roof gap in my mountain settlement, in the middle of my research lab/medbay. Immediately I get the messages "Raiders from (ally name) have decided to take what they can and leave", as they pack up my multi-analyzer, my high-tech bench, my radio, a hospital bed and the medicine that they didn't crush with falling rock and immediately depart. So I had to gun them down? And now they're my enemies, which is working as expected, but what the hell?
