Jesus fuck two post and we've nearly lost the general already.

Question, how to deal with these faggots? I've seen some people suggest molotovs, but
1. Any guy who has to go in there and toss them has a death sentence, and
2. I'm actually rather hurting for materials right now, I don't want to lose my nice furniture.

get some melee weapons, get in formation and open-set to always open the door and kill them, hopefully it wont cost you more than a limb or two

>>155410340

That lasts for all of maybe an in-game minute before they start spawning. Which is to say, 4 real-world seconds.

I've tried just mobbing them, but I can barely get down the megaspiders before the smaller little fucks down everyone else.

>>155410145
Put 6-8 heaters into the room atop the hive room. Wall off the heaters to make the room they're in smaller. Build a vent from the heater room to the hive room. Crank up all heaters to 70-80 °C. The hives should then die, the bugs won't for a long time.

>>155410537
Cheers, I'll keep looking

>>155410340
A bunch actually spawn when you enter/attack the hives, I think. You don't think it'd be better to breed and harvest? I had a really nice jelly farm going in an old colony until a cold snap killed my hives, but we feasted like kings in the meantime.

Please, trader, come by... I need to sell this shit... I don't want to deconstruct it ;_;

question:
if I'm already having fun playing Dwarf Fortress and the UI and graphics don't bother me is there any reason to even try this game?

Persistent planets when? I want to drop new expeditions into old colonies, aged hundreds of years and with random shit that went down. Like dwarf fortress, I guess.

Yes. It's a different game on the same genre, that's it.

God damn.


I had to kill them all. The chicksplosion was too much to handle, especially after a raid killed Wash and the sleeping sickness made 3 of my guys garbage for a few weeks. Just slaughtering and hauling the chicks was taking way too much time, we don't have spare hands for this shit.

I'm keeping a breeding pair for the future, but now we're back to just having to feed 5 terriers, 3 muffalo, 9 boars, 7 alpacas, a jawless labrador, a self tamed cassowary and an elephant. We don't even have time to clear the rotting birds out, their coop is their tomb and their skeletons will be a reminder of our failure.

So why don't pawns autobuild roofs anymore?

So is it a strategy to allow bugs to flourish until mechanoids land and wipe them out?

I opened an ancient danger and went to the other side of the map, they ended up eating all the stone and doing the mining for me until a psychic drone landed near by, I took a pot shot at it and 2 sychthers came out and shrekt the whole hive

Whats the point?

>>155426740
For trve Romans, who unleash war dogs and flaming pigs before charging in swords blazing. You can also get a little K-9 unit with a melee guy, hide him around a corner very close to the front line, and sic the animals on the enemy when they flee for fast nonlethal takedowns.

Don't make the mistake I did, I tamed one by saving its life and it eats fucking everything. I could probably feed twice the herd I have now if it weren't for Nomad. Just kill them, they drop ungodly amounts of meat, might give tusks, and a lot of strong leather. If they could haul more than 75 they might be worth it.

This. I want embarking on failed bases, and not necessarily your own.
We need some sort of bulkhead door that is invulnerable to gunfire and fire, resistant to explosives, can only be broken by miners, and is opened/closed by flicking a switch. That way, we could live in a rediscovered base completely unaware that there is a spider hive on the other side of the door.

Could just build double thick wall between the next room and stack a pile of wood, set it on fire with molotov, set the door to hold open and command some useless animal to go in there, it'll open the door and most likely die. the fire will create so much heat that it'll cook the bugs.

its red because you are using the a14 version, there is no a15 version
ccl is needed only for combat realism from that list, redist heat is updated to a15 with stripped ccl dependency

That moods mod was something I really wanted, colonist negativa moods are too exaggerated in vanilla. Any idea if there's a workaround? Just tweaking numeric values doesn't seem like too much of a hassle. I could help with some of these mods, I'm a good programmer but never modded a game before.

Yeah, boomrats are no joke, especially when they come in swarms of 40. Underestimated them and my legendary gardener got an eyeball chewed up a bit too much for the doctor, doesn't work so well anymore. You have to get out of your base and start killing them as soon as they appear or your base is getting carpet bombed, but they're also faster than your non-joggers.

Your loss desu

so what mods are you all using? I got really bored with vanilla Rimworld circa a13. Other than what is listed in the OP, what are some nice stuff to try out in a15?

if you're getting bored and want to spice things up you should try getting a prostate orgasm

rimsenal, though the art for the federation is questionable
all of misc mods for robots
high caliber for earth guns
more vanilla turrets so you dont have to use alien weapons ever
rimushima for end game power supply
these are the bigger ones of my list

>>155484952
what size is all that zipped up?
w-would you upload it somewhere and link?

>>155485208
there's no need to install those mods, just lower the difficulty to basebuilder to get the same effect ;^)

>>155485208
sure here it is

when creating the world, it can bring up an error quite often, just keep retrying till it makes the world, it doesnt actually show up anywhere during the actual game and it has no effect when playing
realistic darkness can be extremely obnoxious if you are not used to it, it can get pitch black
ck animal pack is just for tropical jungle, doesnt do anything if you dont play there
for rimsenal check the art of the federation on the official forums first, many people consider it out of place

Luciferium day one is too fun. Get your best dude on it, the ancient tomb has at least a years supply, sometimes three.

Then hope for fibrous mechanites and LUL as your super solder never misses a shot and sanics around the map.

>have to have items outside/unroofed to trade them with ships
>items deteriorate when outside or in the rain
how the fuck do I get around this now that ships come like twice a year

>>155487774
you can roof it. the items you receive from the trader will show up outside but you just haul it in.

the items you store can be inside AND beaconed.

I'm still running latest SK hardcore modpack.

I'm also a dirty cheater and load when wipes happen. If I lose 1/2 colonists I continue on. No killboxes - in technology and tactics I trust.

>>155486072
thanks
that arsenal mod really looks ugly as fuck but the others are pretty good

>make mod where twitch viewers can join your colony once whenever they want

Why does about every pawn refuse to do some facet of work. I can understand the idiot types being incapable of doing things like research, but for fucks sake, you just crashed a fucking space ship in the middle of bumfuck nowhere, you're capable of carrying around a stack of wood and sweeping the floor.

because anyone with a little bundle of cash on hand can put whatever ridiculous class they want in the game, so the background pool is bloated with incapables and cringe
