Is there a torrent link?

>buy it
I am afraid of buying because I don't usually like this kind of game so I want to try it out.

Last torrent I downloaded had a trojan.

>>148810279
There is one at Thepiratebay, download the Alpha 14 one.

And also, you can always try steam refunds, as long you dont pass the 2 hours of playtime you will get refunded 100% of the times

Fucking Randy Random.
What the fuck should I do with all these dogs
I barely have enough food for my own colonists, I just started 3 in-game days ago.

>>148813820
And now you have more food. and perhaps enough Yorkie leather to make a jacket perhaps?

>>148815492

I've managed to survive so far thanks lots of animals to hunt, just making a shitload of kibble since they seem to eat pretty lightly.

I don't know if I should bother keeping them around though. Its a little early in the game to have such a huge amount of livestock.

Can I sell these fuckers?

Whelp, looks like she's gettin a Peg leg.

Gotta love randy. He decided that I needed chickens, 6 roosters and 4 hens to be exact. had to slaughter 5/6 of the roosters and segregate the last one from the hens.

Other pseudo-medic gave her a peg leg.
Whats funny is her highest relationship is with the guy that shot her fucking foot off.

Now she's a badass peg-legged 16 year old medic.

One of the Yorkies was mortally wounded by a cobra so I slaughtered it.

I gotta start expanding this piece of shit.

Is there any must have mods? i stopped playing at alpha 9

>>148822183
MAI (awesome helper mod)
Customized Start (I think that's what it's called, allows you to fine-tune your embark)

>>148822183
I would recommend something to fine-tune your starts. I would have said Prepare carefully but the mod dev quit or something.

And personals, I am a big fan of the tilled soil mod. its nothing big but 2X grow rate is nice.

I still have Rimworld ALpha 6 from way back when.

I'll come back when the game has more features.

I'm about to lose my first colony, no-one left except Amelie, a 16 year old engineer, desperately trying to save her father. He had his legs torn to shreds by a frag grenade, the only mercy being that his attacker killed himself in the process.

Amelie was possibly the brightest colonist, but she's not a surgeon and she doesn't have the supplies. Her father will die, but tending to him is the only thing she can do now to keep her mind off the disease that is slowly killing her.

It's my first colony, a first of many, and while it didn't make it very far it is sad to see it go.

>>148822298
>>148822915

Can someone tell me how in depth this game is? Is there plenty of content like in dwarf fortress?

>>148830681
It's still an Alpha but the core is already made so you can still enjoy it a lot despite the current lack of "content"
You don't have Z-level, water exists but isn't used atm, can't make babies and stuff.
On the other hand, you have temperature effect, power management, trading and an endgame goal to achieve amongst other stuff
It's still pretty fun once you get into it, just don"t get the storyteller under anything than rough and avoid the one that isn't Cass or Randy

>>148830937

Alright cool, as long as there's enough content so I can play 40-50 hours. I mean content will come right?

>>148830937
How active is the development? I've known of the game for a while but only checked it out with the Steam release. No Z-level is a shame but liveable, but stuff like no reproduction is kind of glaring.

Can I expect to see important features being frequently reworked, improved, and added?

>>148810279
you can 100% refund games on Steam now if you play less than 2 hours iirc, did that with the disappointing openworld lego game

>>148831789
I think it's the same situation as Stardew Valley, it's one guy on crack who you have to hope doesn't burn out.

>>148831432
You can, there is a lot of replayability, premature death, biomes experience (Try settling in a blizzard, no growing, no heat), optimization, aesthetic base...
Yes content will come, it's still an Alpha ;)
>>148831789
I've been following it around for like a month or two, you can see other people palying for the last 3 years give better input, but from what I see in the forum , the dev is pretty active, it's just that given the current state, major update might need a code's rework bigger than expected.

I've read a dev comment about babies earlier this week, and I agree with his point of you regarding the matter : tl;dr babies might exist, but the growing curve and time flow makes it hard to concieve, you'll see that colonies will usually last 10 years before ending the game.

Az for Z-levels, early ideas are still in debate.

Of course features will be implemented, improved and added, and the game is moddable so it can add mechanics while waiting for official features (I recommend you check mods like Combat realism to give you an idea of what's possible)

>>148832441

Just lost my first colony due to all my males going beserk due to rejections

Also 3 of the females wouldnt perform any worthwhile tasks so that was fun too, should've sold them as slaves desu

>>148822042
Ooooh, is that how you're supposed to refrigerate things?
How cold are you supposed to set it?

>>148854612

Set it some below freezing, keep in mind opening the door will periodically let some heat in. There's no downside to freezing food outside of the used power and it lasts forever.

>>148854805
Thanks! I always assumed that I would eventually get some kind of power/technology for that explicit purpose, but that makes a lot more sense.
By the way, is there a cap to how many colonists you can have?

Anyone playing as lost tribe? My first try just got destroyed by a lack of food and a rather big raid early on, since bows and clubs don't stack up all that well against grenades and rifles

>>148854805
Using an airlock system with two doors helps keep the temperatures stable for those who didn't know

>playing in a warm forest
>everything going extremely well
>warm temperatures over the entire year
>don't even bother making winter clothing since there's no winter


Then the cold snap event happened

all of my colonists died within minutes

what the fuck

>>148854805
>>148855710

I'm fairly sure that closing and opening doors does not affect the room's temperature, since I've been using an airlock system with both doors permanently opened in my corpse storage and walk-in fridge. However temperature does radiate across walls, so double wall your fridges.

I have not played A14 yet, so what I said might have been fixed since A13.

>>148857634
It does in A14, when someone goes into my freezer my food goes from frozen to spoils in 1 season or whatever, then when the door is left closed for a while it goes back to frozen.

>>148855692
I'm actually running a Lost Tribe run right now. "Challenge" difficulty and I haven't lost a single unit.
HOWEVER I'm playing on a mountainous region. My strategy is as follows
>RAID! Draft all villagers
>Set up my ranged units behind sandbags at a choke point between two mountains
>Split the melee force into two, go around the mountain(s) and pinscher attack
>AND THE ZERGLINGS GOT THE SURROUND
That's pretty much it. Melee units are actually really strong IF you can get into melee range.
Grenades suck, but you can micromanage your units to dodge them.
Rifles get demolished by proper melee [s]gorilla[/s] warfare, you need to watch out for pdw's and shotguns

Sorry for longpost :^)

>>148862223
I get that more villagers = bad for food, but does it matter if a villager is autistic and can't into social, like the 3rd one you mentioned?
I figured that you only needed one social butterfly for trading and wardening

He had a couple of other things he couldn't do as well. Basically when you on the brink of starvation the only people you want in your colony are god tier people that you are willing to take a chance on. Autismo isn't necessarily a bad colonist but he's not good enough for me to be okay with him there when everyone is about to starve to death.

If I were to start over, I'd make rooms smaller so I don't waste so much energy on lights

I shut most of them off now and it's fine, but I didn't realize every light is 150W (when a Heater is 100W)

>>148813820

My problem was solved.
I slaughtered 3 of them fot food and to make Yorkie hats.
3 were killed by Cobras
One was accidentally shot to death by my hunter and the last one was shived to death by a tribal raider.
Yay?

>>148856210
When that happens, drop everything you're doing and make a fire place in a reasonably sized room and force everyone to it.

Really wish if it was absolutely necessary some people could do dumb labor. I get being a lazy fuck if other people are there to do it but if you stranded on a frozen hellscape maybe you should haul some shit.

You have to be merciless when it comes to surviving on the ice sheet. Euthanise them if they're no good and you can't sustain them. Feed their corpse to your pet if you haven't already killed that useless drain of resources.

>>148878254

>>148881860
My first few attempts at an Ice sheet all failed because of no food, or I couldn't get indoor farming set up quickly enough. So I quickly learned to slaughter the pet asap and then euthanize anyone that wasn't useful and raiders. Turn their corpse into delicious paste to survive 1 more day.

Also if I remember reading correctly, it stops the colonist population cap?

Although I find that you tend to get new colonists wayyyyyy to fast sometimes.

>>148885945
Considering the threat level isn't just dictated by colonist number, but by the total wealth of the base, I'd say she's pretty boned unless she makes turrets and deadfalls, or is she can trade quickly with a slave trader.

Yeah, alpha 13 really cranked down the number of trade ships spawned and has a higher number of trade caravans and visitors who have some stuff to trade. I know someone made a mod to increase the frequency of trade ships, but I forget if its alpha 14 compatible yet.

Do you guys build one big complex, or a town filled with little comfy houses?

>>148846749
>>148846836

I've lost the scenario about 8 times. Went towards the eastern mountains and dug in, started a fire, then put up some wind turbines and rushed to use the geysers. Indoor crops were a necessity, so built a huge room just for that.
My last one I almost completed the ship, but the only doctor I had decided to go insane and do work on all the other colonists(had 4 left) and in between the mech raids and the regular raids all the dogs were dead.

The one before that, we had a small fire thanks to an RNG Wire, it started in the only entrance to the hydroponics, door was damaged so it opened slowly, every one of my dudes that tried going through that door was torched, panicked and went into a room with a temperature of 400 celcius, thus burning down.

I FUCKING LOVE THIS SCENARIO, as hard as fuck as it is, its fun, try this shit out. When I complete this shit, I'm posting it in the map's comments.

>>148898661
big complex is the practical choice, but I build a vestern town from time to time, or a hybrid base, like here>>148889545

Its fun and all seing the pirates, bugs and mechs fight it out in ruin of my base... but are there any future plans for generated structures? bases, temples, vilages + full map/continent movement like in DF? We got the Crypts with cryo-sarcophages so thats the start I guess :)

Most of my colonists refuse to dumb labor, I have one poor woman doing all the hauling and cleaning.

>>148905567
yeah. sadly fuse's aren't. the steam workshops working out well though there's already a bunch of good mods there.

>>148907379
I'm weak and have been using hauling and cleaning bots for too long. I've always felt like the game breaks down with hauling and cleaning.

Why won't any traders buy my sculptures?

I have a hyper-autist in my workshop that can't haul, work, or socialize; just carves excellent wood sculptures with 16 art skill.

I have 30 of them that are inflating the value of my base to crazy amounts which is probably going to fuck me when a bad event happens.

How do I make my colonists chop down trees? I want them to build something out of wood and there's plenty of trees nearby but they don't ever cut them down, even when I tag them.

There should be an option for harvest or cut or something like that, no? I think it might be cut. It's separate from chop wood.

>tfw no gf

>>148929485
You need to set a stockpile where you can keep all your stuff back at base.

>>148931691
Even if you have one sometimes they won't haul it. You gotta micromanage and prioritize hauling it if you need it if they're busy with farming all day.

Research stone asap, metal and others are too expensive and wood is too much !!fun!!

Has anyone dabbled in animals? Are they worthwhile? It seems like, even if I embark with a high skill trainer, it takes ages to get any taming or training done, and they just eat endless food

>>148934215
You can grow hay for them to eat, it grows fast and only animals eat it.
They are somewhat useful in raids, just to eat bullets, and you can of course eat them later.
They are also useful during winter, because its free fresh meat thats reliably right next to your warm house.

There are other mechanics like breeding, (maybe wool and milk?) that I haven't gotten far enough to explore yet.
If you are playing on a lower difficulty setting, it seems animals aren't needed, and may appear useless. Kind of like alchemy in The Witcher games, you only realize how good it is on harder difficulty, and it seems useless on easy.

>>148934215
I have a small squad of attack cobras. 4 is not enough though. In a raid, they die pretty quickly, but they can take out a couple of dudes. I'm not sure how lethal their venom is. I'd hoping to get a squad of like 10 of them and attach them to a melee guy, maybe they'll be good then.

>>148934446
I had a guy who couldn't do anything other than tame animals and melee combat, and he attacked incoming raiders with a herd of 5 goats. Died a hero, him and his beasts, the ultimate meat shield, as my shooters killed the enemies.

>>148934359
Yeah I'm playing on higher difficulties and I'm getting wrecked, hence why I'm looking at minmaxing now. I read that you can eventually train them to do hauling if they have sufficient intelligence, which sounds useful as fuck. But yeah, thanks for the hay tip, I'll give them another shot

>>148934536
Your shooters probably helped kill him and his goats. Friendly fire in this game is brutal.

>>148934893
It really is, how am I even supposed to use melee guys, they always take more damage from me than from the enemies

>>148934601
In my first ever game of Rimworld my initial animal was a cat that just kept killing small critters, it was useful for food. However you couldn't train it ANYTHING.

I think dogs can be trained for everything, rescuing wounded colonists, hauling, following.

is this game worth the 30 smackeroos? early access games are usually signs of shitty terrible games but this one seems pretty up my alley

>>148934948
Get the shield for them. Use them as a flanker to go around the back of your enemy while your shooters engage and take the brunt of it. That way your melee dude has an enemy meat shield away from your shooters.

Another option is to have them sit back and if they enemy rushes you with melee guys, send in your melee guys to protect your shooters. Also, pause and micro your shooters.

The animal thing synergizes with melee people, cause animals are mlee to, so if you flank with your guy and a bunch of animals, your chances of success are higher.

>>148935086
Depends on if you like games such as Prison Architect or Dorf Fort. Pirate it, see if you like it. 30 is pretty steep if you're not sure you'll get into it, and it does have a bit of a learning curve at the start without help.

>>148934893
Nah, I manually walked them behind a rock/mountain/whatever you call it, they were shooting from a good angle. Maybe some friendly fire, since it was all thick there, but I did flank the raiders with that possibility in mind.

Also, if any more experienced played have an idea, is the initial rifle or pistol a better weapon? Rifles fire so slow, and the extra range seems to not be worthwhile in raids because of the low rate of fire.

>>148935221
I really didn't like dwarf fortress when I tried playing it, but I think it was because of the overcomplicated UI and super slow start if you don't know what you're doing. I've never played prison architect

I might pirate it

>>148935274

This game isn't much better with how it just throws you into the game, but atleast it's quite a bit simpler and much nicer on the eyes. Combined with only being in 1 plane and a small map.

>It's also something that tends to not happen
Yeah but it's better than engaging your skilled guy in a pistol pissing contest at close range

>>148935327
Rimworld is DF minus the elevation mechanic, which makes the UI much easier to read, but takes away from the complexity (may be a good or bad thing).

>>148935484

>>148939891
How well can a solo colonist do? Is it easier to get by than a group of 3-5 guys? How do you even treat your wounds?

>>148939974
Solo means you get very few hostiles attacking you (cos it scales on number of people you control)

But its pretty hard until you get your second person

>>148939789
No immediate reward
But you can research a tech to shoot them with a chip that makes them become a tame animal with obedience release and haul pre-trained.
Can't learn rescue though.

also they randomly fly into manhunter rages for very short periods before calming down; and much more commonly do so after the sun goes down

>>148939974
Rich loner start gives you a charge rifle, which will instakill basically anyone that comes at you early if you don't suck at shooting. There won't be any big raids when you have few people unless your colony has a metric fuckton of value.

Everything takes fucking forever unless you have companions though, so I wouldn't recommend trying to solo all the way to spaceship. Overall it seems like a much stronger start though because you start with turret tech, a charge rifle, and some Gold (in addition to like 1200 more silver than a standard colony).

>>148940421
>not changing the rifle for a knife

Is there any way to balance out risk for long term?

What's the best way to constantly have a nail biting game?

Reposting to give this thread some energy

Played for like 12 hours yesterday.

I saved a person from raiders and she joined my colony, but her stats were shit so I used her as an organ mule.
I took out her kidney, lung, jaw, both eyes, nose, both ears. I replaced her limbs with wooden ones and then removed them. She's now a kissless, hugless, legless, armless missing a a lot of organs.

She's blind, cant talk, cant walk, cant maniuplute anything and is bed ridden in the hospital. My other colonists have to feed her.

Before I took her legs, she went berserk and tried to kill my colony. Since she didnt have eyes , she coudnt see where to shoot so I had my colonists shoot her and took her back to the hospital.

She was real upset after I took her organs and her arms/legs. Her mood was 'on the verge of breaking' for about 10 days in game. She coudn't though, because she had no arms or legs.

Eventually though, she came around and accepted her fate. She keeps my other colonists company when they get injured and have to go to the hospital. She gives my colonists negative mood because she is 'disfigured' and has 'creepy breathing', but she keeps them company.

Her mood finally went up so I rewarded her. I took off her double eyepatches and replaced them with solid gold eyeballs. They don't allow her to see, but they look cool.

Here's this guys opinion of her

>>148941336
A sheriff isn't bad, he can hunt pretty well and later on you give him a good sniper rifle and he'll be an insanely useful asset against stuff like sieges
But it's better to have one that can still do dumb labour

>that one colonist that has been with you since the start, the one who almost single-handedley shot down all the raiders and barbarians who came to slaughter your colony until you trained the rest of the worthless fucks to a gun straight

>that one colonist who was the de facto leader and sherriff of your fledgling colony, holding the line against all who would threaten his freinds and family, be it from man-eating grizzlys to cruel emotionless mechanoids.

>that one colonist who died way before his time and whose death signaled the eventual spiral into madness for the colony, for his was the shoulders that bore the vast majority of the resposibilty for keeping them safe and happy.

What was their name, /rwg/?

His name was Nathan Arbuckle and he sustained the wounds that would mark his eventual death while out hunting elk to feed our colony after our food reserves were depleted.

He was shot in the back by a raider with a sniper rifle as he was running towards cover so that he could hold them off until reinforcements arrived

That shot shattered his spine, rendering him unable to move, use his arms, or talk. Later he had his jaw shot off and an eye burned out from the crossfire when his fellows came to rescue him and push back the raiders

He died 2 days later from euthenasia due to the fact that the colony could no longer afford to feed a mouth that could no longer help provide for the rest, He was survived by his lover and fiance, May, our cook, who also lost her right arm and an ear in that firefight

I later used his sarcophogas as a sort of alter for the chappel that would later see the marriage of the two people who crash landed with him, Santiago. the deep space miner, and Spiffy, the liberal arts teacher.

Is it even worth cooking when you can just make a paste machine?

>>148941632
Cooked meal gives mood, paste doesn't.
Paste dispenser requires power, and you can't always count on having power.

I love it when my nonviolent people go on batshit rampages
One of my architects ran into the wilderness and punched like 4 deer into submission
I don't know how she lived
We ate well that night

>>148941490
Regarding hunting, is it possible to clear over hunt and clear out all wildlife?
I've been scared of over hunting and ruining long term prospects

Infestation event. It's to counter people who dig into mountains.

>euthenasia

Must've been a difficult decision.

Does being friendly to prisoners and giving them big rooms and stuff even change the recreuitment chance? it seems like the numbers always stays the same

>start using Fluffys Work Manager
>set 1 hour of every day to cleaning for every colonist
>set 2 hours of every day to hauling for every colonist

Fluffy is a god

>>148941865
Wouldn't a dedicated cleaner/hauler work about as well? Higher priority on cleaning, since it's generally a few day's worth up front and then just trickle work

>>148941749
Oh shit, so it doesn't matter if I kill the female deer/boar/etc?
I've only been hunting the bucks

>>148941714
they used to be hard
they've been nerfed

if they spawn in a better location you can farm them for jelly with turret/trap setups
The infestation didn't begin in your base. Better get mining to exterminate the source.

>>148941937
once you hit about 10 colonists a dedicated cleaner isnt enough; I'll prtobably still add a dedicated cleaner even with this setup
this way the cleaning scales with the amount of colonists

>>148941765
losing the use of all his limbs and being unable to talk and see straight pretty much made him useless forever.

But yeah, that guy was one of the best pawns ive had in this game so far, he made lvl 20 "godlike" status in shooting, and his lvl 13 social skills really sucked to lose, especially since it kind of tied into his status as "fucker who can tell you a joke dirty enough to make you blush like a virgin and smile before he puts a bullet into the head of an injun' from half a mile away"

The fucker killed two of my starting pets. A cat and a labrador. One of them escaped and chased someone and we pumped it full of lead while it was busy trying to cut its way into a house. Doc was able to melee attack the egg and destroy it. Surprisingly no prisoners were killed and consumed by the fuckers. Time to treat the wounded. Another fucking solar flare and all the heaters are down. Going to be a cold hospital bed for some.

>>148942175
protip: geothermal vents can be used as heat sources
dont use one in a small space though; they're good enough to heat a large greenhouse or make a heatstroke trap

>>148942175
Imagine being a prisoner hearing sounds of loud, inhumane screetching and skittering followed by sounds of gunfire and shouting accomponied by the cries of dying animals right outside of your cell.

they are probably just going to tell you to go fuck yourself when go to recruit them after this.

>>148942175
If you have spare wood, torches and campfires raise temps quite high. Even torches can heat a room up to 15c for such a small amount of wood.

be glad it's not nuclear fallout
I had a two season period of nuclear fallout followed by this though back in A12

>>148942630
Just means solar panels produce slightly less power and shit is colder. One of the tamest world effects you can get apart from maybe flashstorms.

Gonna have to keep rerolling Ice Sheet maps I'm afraid and build multiple greenhouses. Having a nice patch of gravel right next to a geyser is a godsend though. Free warmth AND power.

here it is, it was back in alpha 12

>>148943526
I managed to roll tundra with -15C summers
4000ft elevation
no clue how it's not icesheet

So a gorillion years ago i played Rimworld where the best idea was to dig deep into a mountain and make a giant killzone at the entrance as if it was dorf fort

but nowadays is it actually bad to dig into rock because of giant insect hives?

was that to discourage turtling with one direction for raiders to invade or what

>>148944190
Pretty much
There's also sieging, sapping, and sun lamps being pretty expensive power-wise to discourage you from turtling

>>148944070
Because that's just an elevated tundra. Ice sheet is literally a glacier the size of a country.

Greenland has an ice sheet and a tundra all in 1.

>>148944923
if you're encouraged to build out in the open is there some way to make a moat now? or at least something that slows down raiders' advances on your defensive walls?

All i can think of in that vein is spreading rubble around outside the compound

>>148943636
>filename
Is this some kind of meme. I seen several pics now from different languages. Do you guys seriously use your native languages for windows or is it memestry?

>>148945202
Spreading rubble is the only thing I know about
You can still make killboxes and they'll deal with the raids more often than not, but you have to be prepared to sail out of your base to confront siegers and sappers, too

>>148945202
Boomalope mines. Best, and probably the worst, idea I've ever attempted.

>>148945293
keyboard language

so i just started my first game

why is one of my colonists not doing anything... he has like 9 construction but just walks around talking to the dog

>>148946706
Does he have materials required for the construction? Is he allowed access to these materials (red X on them means not allowed to be used, I think it was F to allow it)?
People will only construct things if they have the materials to do so, and the permission to use them

Does he have "animals" as a job in the Work tab, and a higher priority set to it?
People will do the highest priority job they have assigned that can be done.

Can he physically get to the place you want him to construct shit in?

I had 13 filled graves when my colony died.
Maybe half of them were pirates and raiders that were somehow related to my colonists.
Seems like everyone home had a brother or uncle in the next door bandit fortress.

How do I learn how to play this game? Where is the in-game tutorial? I fucking hate this shit so much

>>148947398
F

>>148948073
Go to options and turn on adaptive tutor. Play new game.

I'm really surprised the Jew didn't add a real tutorial.

A random event gave me a bunch of chicken and when I wasn't paying attention they bred around 30 chicks before I managed to separate the male and female chickens, but they keep eating my cooked food, is there any way to separate my cooked food storage and my vegetables storage?

>>148948848
>is there any way to separate my cooked food storage and my vegetables storage?

Yes, don't be retarded and build two fridges.

>>148948848
Make an animal area, and assign them to it.

That way, they can't wander out of it, so you've got full control of em

>>148938601
Are planters worth it outside of cold climates?

>>148948642
How do people learn this if there is no tutorial then? This is not the kind of game you can pick up and learn through osmosis.

>>148948957
Oh, I don't have a fridge yet.

>>148948985
That's what I did the first time but then they can't get to the food area, and when they go there they breed while they're eating.

Is there a way to choose which food goes to which storage? Thinking of placing the vegetables on the animal area and just feed my people with meat for the time being.

>>148949301
>How do people learn this if there is no tutorial then?
Trial and error.

What, do you seriously think nobody played the early builds of this game before it got on steam ?

SALE WHEN

>>148949113
They grow things very quickly, which is great if you don't have a lot of farming space to work with.
Sun lamps require a lot of power though, and a solar flare will fuck up your hydroponics crops.

One of the mods I'm using is called Vegetable Garden, which adds, among other things, steel and plasteel crops which can be grown and then smelted into the resource. Hydroponics are great for them since they normally take fucking ages to grow.

>>148949475
That's when you make the food area come to them. Make a supply point where you drop the animal feed crop off, and they should be good from there

>>148949593

I wish we could just create our own villagers

>>148958448
for 8 days that's pretty advanced, i suppose it's because you've got all that wood

first raid with molotovs is going to fuck your shit up, you should gradually change the wood to stone once you've got your base at a good stopping point expansion wise
