I'm working on a sort of package manager for mods
Think CKAN but instead of KSP it's for rimworld

https://github.com/R-RPM/RPM

I'm not able to keep working on it until after new years because i'm not at home and like a dumbass forgot to sync my local commits before I left

Just want to hear some feedback on the idea, apparently the people on the modding discord think it's a good idea

Some more shit that i've written up
https://github.com/R-RPM/RPM/wiki/Specification

Still need to work on the JSON schema so actual modders can add shit but I have test repos hosted off pastebin

Why don't you have any hair mods? Adds a lot of variety to colonist looks. Try spoons hair mod or lovely hair style

Help, a squad of terriers just came into my colony as pets.
Do these eat hay?
Whats the most efficient food to make for them, fresh colony so I'm barely keeping up with the amount of food my humans eat.

Good man, now you will have a fabulous posse instead of the same 3 guys every time

I might also try more clothes

>tfw just finished all the scripting for your mod and you want to to test it but you have work early tomorrow
Cut my life into pieces.

Also, I think I know how to implement rape in a duct-taped together way. I think if I implement it as a possible surgery option similar to administering drugs and then the surgery applies damage to the pelvis (or I could make a new "genitals" body part) then it would be possible to schedule rape for your colonists or prisoners.

I'm still learning though.

Anything else /rwg/ wants in a /rwg/ mod?

>>164022751
>eat them
Luckily a bulk goods caravan went by so I traded all of them for 2 young huskies and an alpaca plus extra food.

Thanks doc

I've been wondering if instead of list of damaged body parts we can get a graphical representation. Just small human-like character with arrows coming from different places with listed damage.

This way different mods that include alien races could add their own graphic piece representations. As long as they are compatible of course.

>>164023560
Vanilla firearms damage, accuracy, and fire rate rebalance. I hate playing with combat realism because the inventory system and ammo is fucking annoying but vanilla sucks too.

I'll post it up tomorrow after work when I've had time to properly test it, but so far it doesn't seem incompatible with anything.

I'm also going to make moods less bullshit too. I'm going to scale down the effect of modifiers by probably two thirds so that, on average, you need three times as much shit going wrong for mental breaks to occur.

>>164023464

The inventory and ammo system of CR is the best part of it.
But then im the kind of autist who spends hours sticking pouches to vests in ja2.

>>164023874
Welcome friend. Glad to have you around.

>>164023886
>The inventory and ammo system of CR is the best part of it.
I agree that it's awesome, but the mod just doesn't give you the tools you need to manage it effectively. If you're like me and have an autism fort of multilayered turrets providing enfilade fire and several bunkers inside your mountain base in the event of insects and so on and so on then managing all the different ammo using equipment racks is a fucking pain, not to mention it cluttering up your inventory list, and then when you go to form caravans one pawn picks up EVERYTHING and then moves at a glacial pace and dies of starvation, or your caravans are carrying the correct "weight" for vanilla Rimworld but the incorrect "bulk" for CR and the whole thing implodes, not to mention the mod conflicts it causes.

I like Combat Realism. I just want to make a Combat Realism-lite to strip away the tedious busywork part of it and just keep the actually good combat and fun defences part.

>>164021762
I wonder what kind of pact T made with the devil, the journos still keep writing about rimworld even after his minor mental break.

>>164022963
Well Apparello seems popular but hasn't been updated to a16. FashionRIMsta is updated but looks like it only adds a couple costumes instead of general purpose cute clothes

Can't find much else

>>164024081
But those are just bugs that happened because noone actually improves the mod anymore. Its been on life support since a14 i think.
If your thing works out maybe you can have a go at fixing CR up too.

>>164022963

What happened?

>>164024081
I agree with you on the CR. Trying to care about ammo and stuff is cool but not if you have to actually pick every single Pawn and order them to pick that certain kind of ammo and reload after every goddamn encounter.

I also had problems with caravans going 0.05 hex/day for no reason. I had to make settlement. Drop everything. Pick everything. Make caravan - move out. Destroy settlement. to fix that shit.

Fuck i want snow. Should i restart? I have been at it until 5am.
How do i get a snowy map without much snowing? I want it to be there but dont want to spend half of every day cleaning my streets.

I think I've had more colonists die from being shot by their own comrades than actually being killed by mechs, raiders or animals

>>164028734
I literally played more with this game in a single session than i did with over half of my steam library together.

>>164027892
Ehm, item in game called megascreen TV

>>164028734
Friend, it costs $30. That's the equivalent to 3 movies in theater. Or 3 large meals at a fast food place. Or 9 packs of magic cards. Or 3 hours at minimum wage.

In the long run $30 is next to nothing. Sure, it's good to be frugal and smart with your money. But honestly, it's okay to spend a bit on yourself every now and again.

Also you can just pirate the game to try it out. Buy it if you find that you're enjoying it enough to justify 3 hours of time. Sound fair?

>>164028847
This time everyone was meleeing a couple raiders that had sniper rifles as they went around a corner, so as not to let them fire. One of my own guys had a sniper rifle as well. When assigning everyone to attack in melee, I must have forgot him and he immediately shot somebody in the back of the head.

>>164028734
I know. That's why I'm still pirating it. Like ever since one of the early versions.
>>164029052
Don't use your murrican logic and murrican currency on me. It's 4x times as much for me. So count 12 movies I guess.

>>164030009
>4x as much
I refuse to believe that it costs $120 for you to buy this game.

>Please forgive me.
You can do whatever you want but you should reconsider indulging the yankees. They can swaddle themselves like children in their American exceptionalism and shitty education and their genuine belief that their country isn't a rotting, diseased, decaying carcass while they live in ruins, amid their ruined ideology, in the ruins of the old empire, but reminding Americans to know their place online is fun and games for the whole world.

>>164030743
Oh trust me. i know my country is shit. Full of people too lazy to do anything other than watch the next big feature show on TV, gossip about celebrities, or drink until they pass out. Hell sometimes even all three.

>>164033361
I believe he responded to this by explaining that the next version of the game it was fixed. An that few things were taken out of context. basically why the fuck are you caring what rps puts out, its all fucking garbage.

>>164033361
Tynan left a comment below the article.

There's nothing to worry about.

Will there be z-levels?
You know, for mining.

Is Luciferium worth using if I can get a steady supply? I was trying to estimate the costs, I was assuming three doses every season, so 12 per year, is that correct? Are the effects worth about 1500 silver per year?

I hear it can regenerate scars and regrow some destroyed body parts now too.

>>164033972
It was quite some time ago but there was Tynans answer on the issue.
Source: https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=109.0

Question: Will there be z-levels (vertical mapping)?

Answer: All the coordinates are tracked in 3-vectors already (though only the two horizontal axes are used), so the potential for 3D is in the game.

I am afraid that there is basically no way a modder would ever be able to mod Z-axis into the game. It is a beast of a feature. Here's some basic issues you'd have to handle:
-Pathfinding
-Lighting spilling over Z-levels
-Save/load of a geometrically larger amount of stuff (e.g. 200x200 map = 40k squares, 200x200x10 = 400k squares!)
-Line of sight for shooting
-AI tactical analysis of shooting lines of sight etc
-Cover usefullness varying at vertical angles
-Interface for moving through Z-levels
-Rendering visible lower Z-levels while being on higher ones

I could go on and on... Anyway, there is tons to do in RimWorld, my general thought is that the best cost/benefit move is to leave Z-levels to Towns, DF, Gnomoria, Stonehearth, and all those other games and focus on what RimWorld is really uniquely about: AI Storyteller, tactical AI, and so on.

>>164032548
Tynan already considered himself on that side of the fence, if anything their attacks will push him away.

Can anyone point me towards a YouTuber who plays this?

If your options in vanilla are set as in standard game then I have no clue if there are mods for that. Even if there are some they might be outdated atm. Just look around steam workshop and ludeon mod forums. I have nothing else for you sorry mate.

Is there some secret to operations that I don't know about?

>>164037429
High quality bed, preferably hospital bed instead of ordinary medical bed, vitals monitor besides it

But operations are high risk low reward either way, especially without a mod that adds good prosthetics

>>164034248

You can disable them using the buttons on the bottom right corner. You could also scale the UI down from the options menu.

>>164038423
This, and for important operations glitterworld medicine. I'm not even gonna attempt brain surgery or organ transplants without all of the above

I suppose the nerfs are because it's possible to produce normal medicine from herbal now with the drug system, and you could plant herbal en masse anyway, but it still sucks

I found that if you have a 3 tile thick wall sappers take so long to get through you can walk up from behind

Sometimes they try such a stupid route that they give up after a lot of fruitless mining/grenading

>>164043745
Sappers are usualy covered by their comrades, and fighting in plain field without cover could turn up really bad

Since lads were talking about it I've had a colonist with their luciferium need unmet constantly going bonkers and punching out half the colony and the nearby wildlife, for now I've kept them under anaesthesia by repeatedly suspending and unsuspending a Euthanize bill, but if I look away for a second they wake up and start beating the nurse to death. No silver, no traders in sight

What do?

>>164028734
It objectively doesn't. For a game that's this good as a base, is this easily moddable, and has this active of a modding community? Shit, I'm poor as fuck and I'd still be happy with it if I'd paid a full 60 for it, even with EA.

Several anons had the same problem and it usually solves itself because they die

You can put them to slep or speed things up by sending them in naked to make friends with some raiders, alternatively get an exotic caravan and buy more devil pills

You send them on a "spiritual journey" using the form caravan option. Then maybe you can let them starve in the wilds or you can send an executioner that has the pyschopath trait to burn them with molotovs or sometime.

I don't think that since your colonist is outside the colony you won't get a mood malus for killing them.

I doubt something like that would ever be allowed on the steam workshop, nexus, or ludeon forums because muh feelings (and adult content policies).

Though I imagine that if we ever get a "prison" update I could see Tynan adding a "beat up prisoner" order to give colonists some catharsis after a bad raid. With this I would also love slavery (growing and hauling take a lot of pawns that I would rather have doing other things) and maybe an expansion of the slave market system like exploding collars and the sorts (and b-breeding).

Until then, you can set up a base inside the mountain if you want some surprise rapes from big bug dicks (BBD).

There usually an "ancient danger" spot on the map that'll have those stasis pods you can stuff someone in if you run out. Obviously not a solution for everybody, but I was thinking I could dope up my warriors and as long as their armor holds, they shouldn't die before being incapacitated and just slowly regenerate all of their major injuries.

I also hear it makes people effectively immortal now, sort of like 40k rejuvenats.

>>164038423
I didn't know that. It makes being a tribal pretty hard since I've got to research medicine production before I can even get someone back on their feet.

>>164053316
Actually, because of the nature of the mod Expanded Prosthetics and Organ Engineering where installing items like eyepatchs are more like replacement surgeries than putting on clothing, I think if you got ear bandages and operated on her to replace her ears with them that might count as removing her ears (and if you don't like the bandages you can then remove them).

The same for hands also, since the mod also adds prosthetics for those.

>b-breeding
There are already teenage colonists, so children aren't a long shot away are they?

>Pregnancy 3 season long ''illness'' with appropriate penalties
>Infant=>crib object into limited movement uncontrollable npc
>Child=>Colonist with limited work options and high joy need (implement child-only furniture that trains skills and gives joy?)

Only problem is how can you possibly play a single file for the amount of years it'd take for a kid to grow up without winning/getting wrecked, this would be pretty much a basebuilder phoebe-only luxury

Also if you have a lot of those couples that bang 4 times a day your base is going to be filled with kids like the guy with his chickens

Is there a mod to auto prioritize work priorities, or is it manual only for life

>>164055121
I'm on year 10 as a tribe, I don't think it'd be that difficult to create. In dev mode, you can already force a colonist to give birth, creating a 0 year old colonist (With a randomly generated background that often doesn't make sense).

I like your implementation though, maybe have the early years be the ones that form the colonist's passion for certain jobs and early to late teens be where they get the necessary skills to work.

>>164055121
>>164056881
I imagine kids being added into an update similarly to Dwarf Fortress where they are kinda "downsides" to having in your colony. The kids born into your colony are pretty much useless for about 12 years, same in DF, but you can get children pawns that arrive with parents in "migrations" that might become useful in a year or two.

Though I would like a system that squeezes the time so that children grow up faster.

>>164056881
Oh yeah, they'd need backgrounds. Something simple like ''Born in [colony] to [parents]'', then either add lines at random/depending on skills trained

>[kid] watched the settlers of [colony] make parkas from a young age which ignited a passion for working with their hands (construction +2, crafting +4)
>[kid] fingerpainted a lot and became proficient at the arts (artistic +4)
>[kid] developed a crippling fear of technology after watching a battery explode (research/flick disabled)

>>164058091
I'm pretty sure colonial backgrounds are going to be a thing soon. Teenages no longer start with an "adult" backstory so I imagine Tynan is biding some time to introduce them in a future update.

Maybe there should be an education/apprenticeship system added to the game to guide the colonist's skills/background? I really hate it when my head constructor's aide dies and I have to train a new one up again.

>>164058272
It's true that the only way to have a colonist learn a skill is by having them perform it and preferably with a passion/learning boost. Only other thing is neurotrainers, which are rare and expensive but can increase a skill from 0 to 9. There should be ''research tables'' that slowly train skills, for when your colonists don't have anything to do for a little while

Make sure you have nice "sauna" rooms nearby maybe. If things get too cold your colonists start getting uppity and rush to the nearest room for warmth. The same is for heatwaves too.

That being said, you are right about being afraid. In a large colony it may be hard to micromanage all your colonists that are outside since they may not always "warm up" to the extent of dropping hypothermia.

>>164055121

>>164061283
>That and I'd suck dick for components right now.
That's always bad, even in my late-game colony my components can go from "fully stocked 100 component pile" to "merchants pls come."

You can pray to god for some fallen ship parts (sans mechs) since those drop about 8 components a pop. Though the most likely case is waiting for space merchants, digging strip mines in a mountain and crossing your fingers, or buying the usual 8-20 components that caravan merchants bring with them. It might even be worth the 300-600 silver cost of calling a general trader in from a friendly faction.

>>164061483
>It's not up to him to adhere to the laws of other countries and make compromises for them.

He has to abide by those laws and make compromises for them if he wants his game to be sold in said countries.

At least you got one of the mortars by the looks of it. That incendiary mortar is going to be a pain for your wooden buildings if you back out of the fight now though.

You might be able to overpower them with numbers in a fight. A raider could have a minigun but he'll be forced into a fistfight if your pawn rushes him. If you can keep aggro off your shotgunner you might be able to meatshot the distracted raiders.

What I'm really trying to say is that the game with combat realism and no other significant content mods is a fucking boring waste of time, while modded-out games with no combat realism are just as boring, because the some of the most important core mechanics are casualized to hell - what's the point of half of this shit if the game doesn't even model something as simple and basic as ammunition or seed count?

I've been following the game and its modding community for a while now, and its general direction down the toilet has continued inexorably. Dev releases major game-breaking update, all the modders bitch and moan about it, just as things start to get back on track and there's some sort of cohesiveness between all these different projects, new game-breaking update. Rinse and repeat.

It boggles my mind. With something like combat realism, and any item or weapon mods in general, why don't they have a more stabilized, external modding platform to make sure everything can be made more compatible easier? Why isn't it easier for them to update mods with every new release?

It's all just dumb. Probably the only thing that's going to sort this out is if the game stops being worked on.

>>164065350
Would be really nice if people's attributes could change over time. For instance a character reaching level 15 in different areas could gain a "hard-worker" trait, someone who's been living in a shitty situation for a long while could become pessimistic, while someone who lives in luxury for a while could become optimistic. Becoming cannibals could involve forcing people to eat human meat while they're starving, implying they became that way out of necessity.

Complexity of game mechanics and scarcity of resources are the things that make base-building a meaningful, strategic exercise that requires intelligent thinking.

Why not just get rid of the combat altogether if it bothers you to make ammunition to fight with? One less distraction from making your autistic sand castle in peace.

>anyone who doesn't agree with me has autism
Of course I don't think this. Anyone who doesn't agree with me has simply to show why it's okay to maintain over-simplified mechanics in a game when those mechanics (scarcity of resources, combat complexity) represent the only impediment and challenge to the core activity of the game, colony management.

The more simplified or non-existent such impediments or challenges are, the less exciting, immersive and interesting the game will be. Unless, indeed, you are autistic, a manchild, a literal child, etc. I mean, studies show this. Go and play simon says, tic tac toe or any other minimal challenge game and see how long it holds your attention.

Speaking of centipedes, this genius decided to walk up to and attack the last remaning one on the map by standing in the door, slowly aiming, firing, missing, then getting shot by the inferno cannon. Like any sane person, they immediately charged into the ruin past the centipede, on fire.

Might want to dispose that luciferium so your colonists dont accidentally decide to use it. I would suggest selling it to the first merchant that will take it.

It has some strong buffs but it has a permanent addiction symptom on its first use.

My colonist don't do anything, i just started a new save and all they do is wander, i have to select them and give them orders one by one for them to cut down trees.

>>164074959
Oh, then I have no idea what may cause that then. I want to think zones, but since you can give manual orders that should not be the case. A colonist set in a zone can never leave it unless set to a militia.

Do you have any workflow mods, like colony manager? I would look there first.

I like the plain concrete look of your base. It reminds me of some sci-fi base and that has a comfy aesthetic to it.

This started off as a tribal run on boreal mountains, the place is built into an old mountain that I have pretty much mined out entirely. These are my cannibal cultists and once I recruit a prisoner I tend to just dev-mode in the cannibal trait since otherwise I just end up with rolling mental breaks

My pawns' primary sources of food are the hydro plants and the corpses of our enemies, as well as those who were offered up to the dark Gods.

I have an obscene amount of components due to getting bombarded with components from the heavens (th-th-thanks Cass) as well as caravans which I either traded for or, well, robbed.

I'm not sure if you can see but I have a tamed lovecraftian monster as my main guard dog (I had an arctic wolf but it got rekkt by a bear) and I've also got a horde of black goats, with which I tend to either sacrifice or sell the males (bar one) and just milk the females. Prior to getting wave after wave of boar packs, most of my clothing was human leather. I have more shitty guns and ammo than I know what to do with, so whenever there are raids I just sit on the embrasures in the bottom left corner as that is the only way into my base without mining and I just pick off the raiders with rifles (bows earlier) and then send out my melee units including my animals to gore to death the rest.

Prisoners I can't recruit or have shitty stats get sacrificed in exchange for mad Cthulu buffs

I might need to just amp up the difficulty, since not a great deal really happens aside from the occasional raid, which, admittedly, are increasing in size, but based embrasures make short work of raiders.

>So what's with the sermons
They occur in the morning or evening (or both, up to you) and, if they're given by someone with high social, they can give good buffs to your pawns' needs, as well as increase the cult mindedness of others so as to convert them to the faith. You also get the offerings and sacrifices, obviously.

My head priest, Darius, is also my head knight and he's like, 40-odd years old and is married to Erisen who is 18 and they were rooting at 17, pretty lewd. Darius' father is Goshawk. Huntsman and Borne are also married (they were the first happy couple) and Borne is the daughter of Jackal. Kit and Olga are the only other women though Kit is a faggot, I don't know why Olga hasn't gotten any yet.

>>164084265
I really want to expand more into the mountain to the south behind the solar panels and build more hydroponics there, primarily for all my fucking goats because fuck me dead do they go through some food.

While the infrastructure is not quite there yet, you can "settle" an area with your explorers and gather resources from the land a bit if you want then abandon the "colony" when you've exhausted everything.

Guys but to be honest. That anon got a point.
>>164068603
You are both trying to take it to extremes. I feel like we can all agree that combat in Rimworld is pretty damn basic and could use some polishing and more depth.

Right now it's all about setting up a killbox. Dropping some turrets that will fuck up enemies at the chokepoint. It's rarely if ever coming to some more interesting solutions. If enemy brings mortars it's all in having sniper rifle and picking some dummies off. Then running away until they run blindly into murder box chokepoint.

AI is deadbrain. Pathfinding is simple at best. Game will never surpraise you with interesting combat encounter UNTIL you try to mod it. Then suddenly mods have often problems in working together.
CR is tedious to play with 6+ colonists because as far as it gives you new challenges it doesn't give you proper tools to control ammo types and amounts in pawns and storages. You have to do it manually which ends up tedious.

No one will fucking read it.

>How do i get a snowy map without much snowing?

Old post, but I might help other anons.

Try settling in a cold desert, tundra, or ice sheet with low precipitation. Tundras tend to vary between snowing as often as an average biome and having barely any snow. Ice sheets tend to have no snow whatsoever. This may mean that waiting for your first snow to cover your map may take some time. Also, check the temps, because otherwise your lovely snow will melt when summer comes around.

You need to pop the "terrain" tab when on the planet map.

>>164093563
I haven't felt that yet. My Prepare carefully is doing arright with other mods. What mod do you have on mind?

>>164096690
The game does throw a few different scenarios that can be lethal depending on the base, like sappers, but ya killboxes are pretty much it. More depth would be nice, but with the direction Tynan is taking Rimworld, I just don't see what could be improved upon mechanically or what could be added to present a challenge without the AI straight up cheating. Making combat more deadly and quicker favors colonists as they usually get the first shot in, which would end up being lethal or crippling or have turrets rape raiders as they come around a corner. Ammo management just seems out of place in game as no other material/item is as specific like ammo that only works for a certain gun and would clutter stockpiles. That said more variety in weapons would be nice, or being able to add attachments like scopes or bipods to weapons could add some flavor.

>same thing happens
Why can't I stick to a single base

>>164098560
You have a problem with commitment.

>>164097683
First thing are enemy priorities. They just come in to murder. If they get their ass kicked they run away OR "take what they can" and run.

You need different kind of enemies with different tactics and armament:
- Raiders wanting silver/valuables
- Slavers wanting people (colonists/prisoners)
- Tribals wanting your food
- Beastmasters wanting your meat (living or not)
- Merceneries wanting to utterly destroy you or make you move away
As many different factions you can think of that many different reasons those dummies can have to raid you. You don't even need to always fight. You can just deliver them what they want so they leave you alone. Conflict doesn't always need to end up in combat. Even something as complex as mechanoids could come to retrive artifacts deep in mountain. They'd come, dig and leave once they have it. Attacking anyone and anything that comes near. Be it your allies, traders or your enemies.

I'm not sure if it was my modpack or the way my pack got created but I had a defense line with embrasures and lot of free space. No turrets. 2 out of 3 ways into my base got walled off. Enemies on the way to me got separated into 3 teams coming from all directions. Some managed to dig through walls before I managed to react but when anyone got hurt on the main battle line they just retreated from other two fronts and ant-lined their way back into anticipated defense spot of mine.

I'd rather have to fight in different places at the same time. Dealing with awkward approach positions and separating my defensive force. Instead I have them all nicely dying in the same place every single time. It just ends up being boring. Randy on rough is the same as Cassandra but with tweaked numbers and nothing else.

Don't get me wrong I love the game. I just know there can be so much more to it and I'm getting impatient. Tynan is still setting up the functional basis and I understand it but on the sideline I just silently hope for more.

Had the same problem. Once you start getting bored with your base try (even better before hand) setting an ambition. Maybe you should build a prison complex with built in torture rooms, or maybe you should build a starfort to keep those nasties away. Also try feeling committed to your colonists. It's kinda memey but use Prepare Carefully to include a self-insert or maybe some fictional/non-fictional characters you really want to play with.

Restartis is usually a personal problem, however. It seems like basebuilding is your thing and you restart because of it, maybe try pre-planning most of your buildings ahead of time? I usually find that not keeping your buildings all bundled up into one mega-building is a good move in regards to aesthetics. It looks unnatural.
