Takashi Russel awoke with a jolt to the sound of something crashing through the roof of the room across the hall. Disgruntled, he turned over to go back to sleep, only to hear a metallic screetch that make the thick, dark mat of hair on his back stand on edge.
"It's probably Makar who forgot to clean his room again, and now we got a bunch of Megaspiders loose in the courtyard," he thought, as he slowly moved his giant corpus out of his oh-so-comfortable bed that he'd rather stay in. Sleepily, he made his way to the hallway where he turned on the automated defenses.
"Fuck if I'm to deal with those again, that's what we got those dang turrets that Blitz put up for," he mumbled, listening for the .50cal turrets spinning up and start unloading as he went to go fetch his rifle. He still had to check that everything was dead before going back to sleep. Despite his rough demeanor and his tendency to bark at people, he still cared for his comrades at the Misty Mountain colony.
Five minutes of gunfire ensued, and he thought he heard some unfamiliar gunshots mixed among the torrent of lead hailing from the wall of guns that block anything nasty from entering the colony from any side. As things went quiet, he went out to check on the supposed bugs.

>>151940878
What he found shocked at least a bit of the otherwise steely nerves that he had. On the ground in the courtyard, not far from the hayfield, laid sprawled the "corpses" of some alien mechanical things that vaguely resembled the bugs he'd thought they were. He went over and prodded one with his rifle, turning it over to reveal fist-sized holes in its carapace, opening up to complex electronics.
Just as he finished wondering "what the fuck", the thing let out a loud "REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" and lobbed up at him. Quickly he stepped back, shouldered his charge rifle, and ended the thing. Or grinded the machine to a hault. Guess the technicalities are up for discussion.
Double tapping the remains of the beings proved no issue, and the thing that had once been a carrier pod that had wrecked the room next to him had been reduced to smoldering steel slag. Considering a job well done, he went over to the saloon to grab a beer before heading back to bed. He remembered to set his alarm clock early, though. He wouldn't miss the faces of the others once they awoke to the carnage.

Just repelled a midnight Mechanoid raid with one dude turning on defenses and finishing them off. No losses at all. Really felt like writing it out.

is there a discord where i can talk about/read rimworld stories

flashstorms are fine. All the lightning drops in one spot so you can put it out fast. A drawn out dry thunderstorm will have half your colony mobbing to the 4 corners of the map putting out fuckmassive brush fires.

And that shit doesn't even come with an alert, it's just normal weather.

>>151953721

Yeah, I was probably thinking of dry thunderstorms.

The last time I had one I was lucky enough that it started to rain the next day.

Dry thunderstorms, toxic fallout and beavers! are just really fucking irritating.

Getting a Beavers! event while mopping up from other events is like having your smoke detector battery die in the middle of the night.

>>151954073

beavers are no fun and just rng if they fuck you up or not.

i'm playing randy random extreme and you have to kill beavers if you do not want to lose a shitload of ressources.

one game they ate half the map before i noticed i didn't order to hunt them

I think a nice feature to add would be water consumption

>just make it so it's a global resource that pawns drink from a bottle they carry around (making it so they have to drink water by picking it up from storage would be too fiddly and take too much away from time they should be working)
>Add storage devices like water towers/tanks
>Collection devices could be wells or on coastal maps desalination plants that pipe to a water tower/tank
>Higher temperature would cause your pawns to need to drink more

Does it seem to needlessly complex/fiddly?

>>151955364
it sounds like disabling fast travel because the dev wants artificial difficulty and stretch out the playtime.

there is no benefit in doing it good. it's binary. either you have water or not.
compare it to food. you don't have enough you have to eat raiders to get debuffs for cannibalism.
you have enough, everything is fine. no mood buff or penalty.
you have more than you need, you can make fine and lavish meals or feed animals.

also isn't food not already enough shit to deal with?

How exactly does low cover work?

Is it a negative accuracy modifier per tile of low cover in the line of shot or does it only provide cover if you are in an adjacent tile?

I'm trying to figure out whether or not shooting from cover reduces accuracy and whether or not you have to hug cover.

>>151955364
At this point it becomes too much micromanagement. Why not pissing and shitting mechanics and waterclosets with a pipe system with complete sewer integration while we are at it.

Rimworld is close enough to the sims in some aspects, no need to make it closer.

>>151956178
I'd like a little more micromanagement in some regards.

My chefs refuse to prioritize kibble.

>>151956482
Non mandatory management shit is fine, like more tables and priorities and means to micromanage would be okay. But a new type of need like thirst would be too much imo.

>>151956482
You need to move it up the bill queue with the little arrows on the left.

>>151956178

I think water is important but as a gameplay mechanic it's questionable. Tynan is pretty good about balancing gameplay vs. having features just for the fuck of it (unlike way too many indie developers).

I wouldn't mind seeing a mechanic that deduces whether your kitchen/dining room has access to water. Perhaps a system where the kitchen needs to be close to a source of water, and cleaners get a buff when cleaning near a source of water.

It could be system where you have Wells (need to be in soil) with an area effect that sets to binary "has water access/does not have water access." Which would add one more complication to the mountain base folk. But you could build a Water Pump in a water source and piping to a collection Reservoir which serves the same water access function as a well.

That way the water is more about making sure your kitchen/dining has access rather than worrying about hydration.

>>151956178

That's why I had reservations, I just wanted a bit more challenge added to playing hot biomes, especially deserts.

:(

>>151957032

Also, maybe drinking from the Well or Reservoir would alleviate the affects of Initial or Minor Heatstroke, or creates a temporary buff to heat insulation. So it can be situational.

>>151957032
Really not into that desu, because then the question of the need of the plants to be watered arise, and the need of the animals to drink water, and the need to bath and wash your clothes.

And then we had clothing odor, human body odor and animal odor who all give buff and debuff wether they are clean or dirty. Also we now need to make the distinction between wet dirty and dry dirty and a dust mechanic that prevent wet dust from travelling in the air but is harder to clean when dry.
We can't forget mold, because where there's humidity, there's mold. That's where the fumigating mold remover (250w power usage) come into play, it must be linked with pipes to a Well and uses 200 plasteel and 5 components to build. It would be really important because too much humidity would cause roaches to appear, causing mood debuffs and 'sullying' your food supplies, causing further debuff if eaten/used in a meal.

>>151956019
im this guys

>>151957032
and your idea sounds reasonable. you get a benefit for buildung and maintaining a optional system.
depending on what the system contains and how it works there could be situations where you have a bigger benefit in not building or maintaining it.

i'm thinking of a sense of upgrade. think of an area with few soil spots like a desert. that's an area where you definitly want water

now think of an area where you can grow whereever you want. maybe it's just easier to make a bigger field instead of building a watering system.

on the other hand it could be easier to maintain a waterin system if you are around 10 colonists. now it's a almost necessary upgrade to maintain a high number of colonists

but in the end i have to say, that's something completely different than your colonists having the need to drink water what was first proposed

>>151957443
I'm sorry.

>>151956789
Let me rephrase. They refuse to prioritize kibble over cooking food.

Kibble's at the butcher table for some god damn reason which my cooks never go near unless I god damn tell them to. I already have it higher queue over butcher animal.

I've got 6 god damn pawns set for max priority cook and I'm constantly running out of kibble cause every single god damn one of them is making meals constantly.

I could increase the amount of cooks to more than my number of ovens, but then I run the risk of one of my more useless cooks ending up with no work since several can't clean or haul.

>colony is impenetrable
>more food than can be eaten, 300 meals frozen at all times
>everyone wearing good clothes and high level rifles
>make so much money that I can buy organs and prosthetics from space traders

Life is good.

>>151958948
I have only five colonists and my freezer is fucking enormous comparatively. I have 10 000 food and 200 meals because each time I have manhunters I butcher them all for their leather/fur and I end up with waaay too much meat.

>>151959204
In comparison, I have 13 colonists. I've never had one die, though. 40+ raider graves adorn the outskirts of my colony.

is the construction stat used with the crafting stat when building things who have a beauty value?

Is Vancidium in vanilla, or is one of my mods adding it? I can't seem to figure out which one, if it is, but the wiki has nothing to say about it.

Post some aesthetic bases.

All of these "rate my base that's just squares next to squares" are making me uncomfy.

I've obtained a few more sniper rifles, so I'll be extending my defensive line. I wish

My next playthrough I'm going to unify my shit into a single building, but my defensive perimeter will probably be conceptually similar. Although I'll upgrade from a simple box design to a start fort design next time and place the traps at the star tips instead.

This would also let me place turrets in the killboxes between the start points.

No you're not reading the temperatures. Look at how much heat/cool insulation the wool dusters are giving.

>>151980514
By "standard" I don't mean "realistic", but insulation like that is needed in certain biomes so it's not weird it exists on well crafted wool parkas. It only seems broken to you because you aren't playing a super cold/super hot map.

And 100+ heat insulation especially helps if you are firefighting inside your base.

Jesus glad I never start in desert.

>tfw marriage is just an excuse for organ harvesting because the rebuffs are countered.
Sacriel is getting a new heart.

So I have a pretty neat base in this game but I'm awful at making silver, any tips? One of my guys is level 14 crafting just need to figure out what's cost effective and all that.

>>151986186
Make parkas, fur and leathers are better than clothes. If you can grow year-long plant a shitton of devilstrand somewhere and make parkas out of that exclusively. Statues out of marble sell the most out of all the rock type (not sure), and if you can't be arsed to have someone be constantly on working boulders you can make them out of wood but they don't sell for enough to make them worthwhile imo.
Harvest organs, use the cryosleep casket you find or build to put injured raiders, and get them out and heal them to sell them when a slaver ship comes by.

That's pretty much it.

plant cotton and sell cloth armchairs. Buy alpacas as soon as possible, breed and use their hair to make more armchairs

>>151987825
Are armchairs worth more than parkas?

arent embrasures actually less protective than the standard sandbag/wall/sandbag/wall defense

is there anything to be gained from centipede/cyther corpses? besides the centipede weapon of course.

>>151996612
They break Melee AI badly and trivializes half the raids in the game. And it depends on which ones you use, there's at least half a dozen out there with some ranging from sandbag tier to 90% cover

>>151996737
You can dissemble them for plasteel, components and regular steel at the machining bench.

ground fault circuit interrupters or some kind of circuit breakers should be in this game without mods

how practical is having the ability to maintain a network of automated sentry turrets but not have the mental capacity to hook up a simple breaker box

tynan what are you even doing

So attacking traders is generally a bad idea right? It's really tempting.

Is there a way to get a colonist back after he has been kidnapped by dickshit raiders?

>>151999206
If they gave you everything they were selling then it would be fine.

>>151999512

They do, if you attack there pack animals. Really bad penalties with the faction though, you gaurentee they won't be coming back to trade.

Yeah, I was terrible with micromanagement since I had a ton of colonists. It got to the point where on the last couple of days people and animals would leave their rooms and instantly be downed, luckily I had a few people who could last out there long enough to save them.

Food poisoning or throwing up?

Pregnant animals throw up randomly.

so, these space refugees who come from cargo pods, i heal them and they just fucking walk away, and i could really use some of them(they have good stats most of the time)
is there any way to recruit them or they'll always just walk off the map like nothing happened?

>>152019826

Capture them and then Stockholm Syndrome them.

>>152019583

Straight up food poisoning, happened to 4 animals of two different species in the span of a couple days.

All they have access to is Hay and it's all 3+ seasons till spoiling.

Are you guys interested in some mods? I did a bunch of changes to the base files to test gameplay, but I wouldn't mind packing them into a proper mod file.

List:
>Grass spreads faster 3.5x faster. Terrain was getting too barren too easily.
>Batch cook 10 fine meals - time and ingredients required are proportional, but it helps to avoid micro-hauling
>Slightly buffed muffalo wool (60 wool / 15 days) and milk (4 milk / 1 day). Now two muffalos produce the same as one alpaca and one cow, but the work required is a bit higher.

I'm also planning to add pickles, jerky and cheese*. They're mainly for compact storage - they stack up to 100, preserve well and don't distinguish between veggies or meats**, for a clean freezer.

* rip-offs of https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=24473.0
** of course hay and human flesh are NOT valid ingredients. If I add human flesh jerky, it'll be as another recipe.

>>152020898
Tomorrow I'll pack it for you then, 4AM here. And since your main problem is too many cookers needed, I'll make the recipe be a bit faster (4/5 of the time) than 10 normal recipes.

Regarding the devilstrand change, I'll do it too. It's easy. I think Tynan did that because people got really pissed at them dying after solar flares.

>>152021212

Yeah I can understand the change, it didn't make sense from a normal gameplay point of view. I just find it really bothersome from an aesthetic point of view that I can't grow them in an indoor or underground location.

Maybe in the long run they could be tweaked to be a little more interesting, perhaps requiring darkness to grow or something odd.

Either your social skill is bad or he was at 99% recruit difficulty. That's unfortunate, the two I rescued from the pods were 65% and 750% difficulty, was getting around 10% chance when I tried to recruit.

Recruit difficulty represents the maximum chance you can roll with 99% difficulty = 1% chance to recruit. It's not that bad though because recruiting is the best way to grind social XP

People don't actually die when you refuse to help them.

>>152028358
Refuse all cold-lovers if you're not in an ice biome
Fucking heatwaves man

>>152028482
They do if they bleed out.

>>152028726
I've refused many people related to my colonists and never once got a mood debuff.

>>152028935
Indeed. You don't get mood debuff but they can die.

>>152028482
they die in my headcanon

>>152028479
yeah but they slooooow pawns down which ruins efficiency

How the fuck do I play Hardcore SK?

Fuck this game.

what the fuck is the point of keeping these stupid prisoners if no one ever wants to buy them
this game NEEDS MORE FUCKING TRADERS
they pass by once a season if im fuckng lucky what is this

I need a fucking guide I get buttfucked on cassandra rough permadeath
Can you guys recommend a youtube video or a written guide or something?

>>152032516
lmao what difficulty are you playing on

>>152032518
I agree that treaders beside the main colonies should appear and they should have specializations.

>>152032681
The game is just very fucking difficult
Keeping mood up is vital, so build big individual rooms, big dining room, big rec room, have fine meals, have good clothes, have light, have around 21°C

I just found a neat little exploit. The quality of an item is generated when it is finished, so if you need something to be masterwork, just save when there's like 10 work left and keep reloading until it becomes that.

Extreeme Randy

Now this gona be gud

>>152033031
shit what did you expect

>>152033031
what's your colony wealth

i just realized my muffalos consumed like half of the beer stock i had
they were all drunk and need to be rescued
seems legit huh

>>152033338
I may have stolen few amazing statues and killed some traders in meantime.

>>152033640
I have a squirrel that keeps binging beer and puking everywhere. Even while pregnant. Irresponsible little fucker

>>152004812

I don't use those mods, but to be honest, selling a prisonner slave should give a mood debff. It's one of those thing Tynan did I hate, like your colonists are some pure and protected flowers who want to live in beautiful castles with 10/10 bedrooms regardless of their actual background.

Also mood debuff because someone who came to kill you and rape your face is dead? Come the fuck on.

Organ harvested mood loss, i can understand since it's gruesome as fuck.

>>152033729
I agree. Also we need buff "Working with a friend"
It seems relations have only bad sides now.

>>152033031
>dev mode
fuck off polack

>>152009091
Isn't this the way to destroy quite a lot of Thrumobs body though? Its fur is worth a lot.

>>152028479
It does look super smooth one way or another. I like it.

Giving a godlike crafter two bionic arms and eyes is a good idea, right?

>>152036026
Obviously. I'd prioritize my artist though.

seeing how open maps with few mountains will gimp you on metal do plasteel plants in Vegetable Garden seem balanced enough between being too easy to gain metals and being too hard?

>>152033729
If you interpret the debuff a bit more broadly it makes sense. Maybe the pawn isn't sad because
>someone who came to kill you and rape your face is dead
but just because of the fact that someone came to kill you and your face in the first place
I just think of it as a reaction to the event. It would be strange not to have any mood change after a fight to the death after all.

>>152036540
But it already exist in the form of "stranger died". It really doesn't make sense that someone who was a soldier, a tribesman, or a mercenary feels guilt when people are executed.

Why not implementing PTSD if you want to fuck the colony over some more with 'realism'.
Pawns are all hypersensible little bitches when they are supposed to be survivors making do and scrapping by, and that's dumb as fuck.

>>151939286
ye its good

How good is Hardcore SK modpack holding up? Last time I played it on 2.5 version. Is the balance of pack still fine?

>>152036391
Nah, I don't like the gorrilion level of crop types that are introduced which clashes with the art style. I'm using Industrailisation for my late game plasteel needs since it requires substantial investment before you can get the Deep Drill Mine going and get freer access to Plasteel, Uranium and Gold.

>>152036776
Nah, stranger died is only for neutrals. I haven't seen it on my colonists when they are gunning down tribals by the dozen. I'm pretty sure that Tyran is planing on introducing more traits to make certain pawns less of a wuss but you can't deny that not everyone will be happy when you sell living humans to become organ farms or kill them by cruel and unusual methods even if they tried to kill you earlier. They might even be slave armies considering they try to kidnap your colonists to swell their ranks.

>>152037163
>kill them by cruel and unusual methods

So euthanize doesn't give mood rebuff?
That's good news.

>>152037396
They give a tiny amount, -3. Weird that you can do it instead of executing them which gives -5.

>>152037482
Well, euthanize only works on injured, so you have to botch an operation first to be able to do it. Not sure though.

>>152037396
>>152037482
euthanizing in this game is bullshit, it should give -1 debuff at most, since it's moral n' shit. tynan is just forcing his own view on the subject.

>>152037559
I'm pretty sure you can do it at any time unless that's an EPOE option. Regardless, you can cheat the organ removal by installing and removing peg legs.

>>152037708
-3 is tiny, drinking a bottle is more than enough to counter it.

>>152037708
you're a fucking retard, it's never not going to be uncomfortable to have somebody die

>>152037708
Sure. If your colonists all have sociopath trait that'd be fine. Otherwise people dying around you is quite fucking depressing for socially functional human beings.

is there a reason to give money to other factions other than being at least like 0 with them? you guys think improving relations further will increase help or anything?

Stuff I want:
Machines/hamsterwheels that make electricity if you put colonist/animals on them
Fences
Breedable animal traits
Kids
More buffs/rebuffs

>>152038583
They will be more likely to send you help and I think trade more. You can also burn them to get emergency reinforcement but its totally random how strong they are.

Is there a way to speed up wool production?

>>152038682
Is it really random or does it scale to your wealth like everything else?

>>152039912
make your pets eat grass grown from rich soil

also keep them under sunlamps

This is my first cassandra rough playthrough that seems to be going well, but how do I get prepared for bug infestations?

Will building walls help?

>>152041173
This >>151967494
Also limit building in mountains or replace the cave walls with actuall walls, and leave one square space behind them so they have less chance still spawning inside your base.

>>152041580
So I have to wait till they spawn and then build sandbags while they attack? Doesn't seem like I 'll be able to pull it off

>>152041762
The idea is they spawn outside your walls, or at most in one of your room (if you are in a mountain, they only spawn in a previously dug area. Lure them out, shoot, flee, wait for them to lose aggro, come back and repeat. They aren't that hard if your have okay weapons and your colonists can shoot. I'd recommend grenades if they are outside your base.

Also they don't attack you first, except if you are very close to them, they react to being shot, or having a hive taking shots.

>>152032991

>not playing on permadeath

Faggot.

>>152028682
good heavens. that's exactly what happened to this tribe. heatwave, no cooling tech, not even clothing tech for dusters.. everybody died.
i'm not savescamming normally, but this time i tried four times to save them. they're all dead now

>>152041996
So I should build walls instead of having these natural walls?
