RimWorld follows three survivors from a crashed space liner as they build a colony on a frontier world at the rim of known space. Inspired by the space western vibe of Firefly, the deep simulation of Dwarf Fortress, and the epic scale of Dune and Warhammer 40,000.
Just noticed you can perform "remove stomach" when someone is sick with gut worms. I didn't have the balls to try though. Also someone just died to alcohol poisoning.

Protip: Kill traders. Loads of free shit. Just make sure it's hard for them to escape and kill the muffalos carrying the stuff first.

Samuel Thompson
You have to leave some herbivores around if you dont want the carnivore to prey on your colonist. Otherwise, just exterminate with exterme prejudice
Joshua Wood
>kill traders >they wont came back to trade and leave you locked out of some resources that you need. Yea.. good idea...

Anyway, is there a way to go somewhere out of the initial area you start in? The world is a big place and I want to explore!
Daniel Bennett
>some cargo pods have crashed nearby >what the fuck
Jordan Long
They will come back as raiders. Then you just kill them. Use the comms station for good shit. Most traders only bring shit anyway.
Evan Parker
Eat it for the lulz
Hunter Hall
animal food
Christian Phillips
What could possibly go wrong
Also, is there a way to get around the insane punishment to research for being tribal?
Michael Reed
>Third death >I only have one more constructor, with 4 fucking construction Dude I've hunted every one on the map. They spawn in and get me I'm beyond frustrated. I guess I have to press O and swipe across the goddamn map every night to catch these fucks when they spawn in
Brayden Evans
Just a reminder, people are expected to be of legal age when posting on this website.
Nicholas Gomez
Have more scientists and tables. That's it.
Easton Murphy
>Not scrambling every piece of food you can Low energy mate
Lincoln Baker
On a desert map, I expected the difficulty to be getting food Suprisingly, I got a freezer full of veggies. It's the goddamn cats that have trouble with food, and ignore the fucking camels swarming the map, going straight for my colonists This game isn't good for my health
Tyler Walker
Forgot pic related
Brandon Lewis
how do you even stop your colonists eating them? i think its random shit
i even saw my colonists feeding a whole corpse to my prisoners
Jeremiah Nguyen
Does anyone ever have problems starting games? I keep wanting to plan the perfect base from day one.
Ian Morris
Holy shit that's so funny >Choose to live or die. Eat your friend, or waste away Just restrict it in you fridge and reserve it for kibble, I guess Do people lose their shit if they eat soylent green human meat?
Michael Walker
Me too, i usually overextend tasks i give to my initial colonists. So my base usually lack cleaners and haullers at first until i get more people.
Liam Roberts
that isnt really the point of the game unless you want it to
or just use prepare carefully and give everyone full 20's
Jason Mitchell
What i am curious about now is, do you get negative modifier if you make kibble out of human corpse?
William Martin
>i even saw my colonists feeding a whole corpse to my prisoners
Jaxson Barnes
I mean in terms of building layout and where everything goes.
Elijah Evans
Has anyone done the number on the most efficient stuff to plant and harvest?
Brandon Price
>Be desperate for anybody to join my fucking colony, especially builders >Get offer to defend a chick from some tribals >Fuck it >Get this >Lazy, trigger happy, no dumb labor >BUT THOSE STATS
Joseph Perez
Yeah fuck this whore you can have her back guys :^)
Joseph Price
Three people could have saved that base. Cut the grass nigga.
Jace Nelson
>You can cut the grass
Oh, thanks.
Jonathan Rivera
Yeah, it grows back really fast though so keep an eye on it while the fire's burning. You'll need the fire brake to be 2-4 tiles wide so it doesn't jump across to more grass.
Sebastian Ortiz
Well, turns out tribals are fucking incompetent. One turret was enough to transfix their oogabooga brains. I should probably not have my surgeons as melee units, but they both have 0 shooting :^( If you want me to stop spamming, say so
Nolan Long
Is there any way to customize colonists apart from their names?
Michael Diaz
How the fuck do i cure a plague?
How the fuck do you even get the plague?
Robert Jenkins
does this game have lightning rods?
David Martin
There's a mod, Prepare Carefully.
William Anderson
They gain immunity, it's up to you to keep them alive until they get to 100%
Camden Butler
Is it me or do all the special backstory characters have Lazy?
Nathaniel Diaz
tailoring goes under crafting right?
Tyler Kelly
I don't think I can survive this.
Blake Reyes
Corn for perfect fertility, potato for gravel, Cero for short term wood, oak for long term. Dandelion in big fields because they auto sow and hay for manual feeding
Connor Lopez
Thank you. It got discontinued though, according to the forums.
Cameron Green
Can someone give me a good Hydro layout?
Austin Perez
It's probably because of the "I can reach anything with my potential, I just haven't cared enough to try :^)" demographic
Weird question. If I were to roof something up, but not completely, would heat still instantly leave the room, or would the rate of transfer-to-outside-temperature be slower? Pic related
Ian Johnson
>go to rescue someone who collapsed from Hypothermia >guy gets hypothermia getting them and bringing them back he collapses at my doorstep
-100F is no fucking joke.
Jonathan Peterson
I think it's still leave it fairly quickly. I had two open spaces and I still got major heat transfer.
Aiden King
I figured as such, but it's ok I always have a backup plan
Hudson Bennett
>finally figure out how to play the game to the bare minimum >have good electricity and good food, a good chef and a good researcher >my surgeon general gets the flu >have him rest from the second it is announced till the moment the cold creeps into his corpse >none of the others could practice any medical exercises >get attacked by two raiders with clubs and energy shields >think they would be easy kills for my three armed men >they take literally no damage as they club everyone to death guess i'll have to start over then
Blake Cox
FUCKING
RANDY
Jonathan Gomez
>-100 >Volcanic Winter I'm dyin'. Good luck.
Zachary Turner
Best part is my batteries are all fucking dead, and the wind hasn't blown in days. My heaters are sporadically on so my interior is only 4F. There's no wood on this map so I can't make a wood heater.
Lucas Scott
Fun stuff: I just had an escape pod land.
Since they didn't have a parka, it took them 5 seconds on max speed to hit Serious Hypothermia. Like it's going up 2% to 3% per second.
Landon Butler
Honestly, I'd probably switch the lamps off to save power for the heaters, since losing fingers is probably worse than not seeing shit, but you've done better than I could've, so I sincerely hope you pull through.
Parker Edwards
Alright place your bets, lads. Will this work? Once I got incinderary IEDs complete you can be damn sure it's gonna be lit
Oliver Foster
Fuck I keep forgetting pic related
Colton Baker
Maybe. Hopefully.
New record low, -125F. It's 12H (aka midday) and the temps are only hitting -116. Figures I'm on a freezing map, with volcanic winter, in the middle of winter.
Lucas Sanders
completely wrong. Deep in a mountain temperature is stable 15°C. There is no need for lights in bedrooms because pawns moods not affected during sleep. You can use freezer to warm hallway. Still no hydroponics?
Jason Howard
How do you design your vents for coolers?
Kayden Young
RANDY YOU ARE THE ULTIMATE ASSHOLE
I JUST
ARGH FUCK YOU
Nathaniel Johnson
1. It most certain is not, my rooms swing into the negatives quite often.
2. They like to relax in their rooms, and then complain about the light. Since going outside is suicidal, especially at the moment, they are mostly trapped inside. So having lights in rooms is not the worst plan.
3. I don't even have an air conditioner. It's so cold that my freezer is just a side room with a one-layer wall for poor insulation and no heaters. It's consistently -50F.
4. Just researched them, but Solar/Wind aren't stable enough in my opinion. I'm gonna go Geothermal and use the steam vent to the southwest of my home.
Benjamin Roberts
You have a steam vent, if you have enough materials you can make a heating tunnel and pray its enough
Jaxon Cooper
Look who showed up!
Once it dies from Hypothermia, I can harvest it for oodles of meat.
Jordan Rogers
thrumbos are like, immune to cold
Jacob Parker
Nope.
It's also starving because there are no trees on the map.
I think it was actually leaving before it fell unconscious from hypothermia.
Leo Gonzalez
Keep posting my son. I'm at work right now and everyone but me is on vacation so I'm just stood here in my warehouse with nothing to do for 9 hours a day. This general is keeping me sane.
Dylan Ramirez
>get a message from a guy wanting rescue >lol i can't deal with that shit >oh wait he is a colonist's father, guess I should save him >he nearly dies walking through the frozen hellscape >all raiders die from cold/shotgun fire trying to assault my home >one of the first things he does is get into a social fight with his daughter >I literally let a dude that beats his family into my home
well shit
Christian Cruz
>>oh wait he is a colonist's father, guess I should save him That poses an interesting question, does the 'my relative died' mood defbuff get triggered if they die if you decline that event?
Owen Perry
Yes. Any time a relationship is discovered it can trigger events any time. One of my folks went batshit berserk, found out after a while that his brother, who was a pirate that ran away after a failed raid, died out of the blue and he could somehow sense it, despite not occuring on the same screen.
Landon Foster
I tried to save you after that raid, my friend. But with an Eclipse and two of my Wind Turbines down, my campfires couldn't beat back the cold.
You were a good pup, knew every skill there was.
Christian Hernandez
Thanks for the response, that's good to know
Isaiah Robinson
Also, whoever said that inside mountains was always 15F. Here's some proof that is not the case. No vents, yet his room is -20F.
Brayden Cox
How are you guys taking people's arms and legs? I have advanced prosthetics and there's no option for that.
Luke Hernandez
Ive just been installing peg legs/hook hands and then removing them
Why must the world always take the best and leave the worst? RIP Wilfred.
Aiden Johnson
Am I fucked?
Alexander Cruz
Should I keep this cum dumptser?
Mason Clark
Gee I wonder why.
>shit insulation >not even in a mountain
Jeremiah Ortiz
Yep. She will cook your meals.
Jose Walker
How do i stop 2 guys from killing each other social fighting getting pretty ridiculous
Nathaniel Davis
>a modder managed to get CR inventory system working in A14
I can almost play now.
Easton Bennett
>CR inventory system ??????
Julian Long
I have 3 more elsewhere. Please, add a nuclear reactor.
Asher Hernandez
>all those vents and coolers ???????????????????
Thomas Foster
this timberwolf thought he was gonna have my sow for dinner. Now my sow is having him for dinner.
Jaxon Lee
Room was literally 500f with no coolers. Coolers need ventilation, in my headcannon.
Jaxson Lopez
Loadout system added by Combar Realism mod. It allows pawns to always carry a gun, a malee weapon, grenades, a meal, whatever you set them to. And ammo, because CR adds limited ammo.
How the fuck did you even manage to build into an ancient ruin
Jeremiah Parker
It's still early game and they only triggered after opening the caskets
Asher Thompson
They managed to claw their way through one tile of granite wall before croaking
Charles Davis
The prepare carefully mod seems to be out of date. Is there a way i can use it with 14d?
Ryan Bailey
>Get saddled with some shit pyro with no skill above fucking 2 except research and medicine which are both 10+ >Fine, whatever, sit on the research bench for the rest of your life >Bench is in the largest room of the base, looks the best, and is the cleanest >Not even 10 minutes later this nigger sets fire to to the damn place
