Nutrient paste dispenser wins my award of best backup plan I ever built.
>built it in the first year
>didn't use it for almost a year and a half
>four people get sick to the plague

>kept the healthy colonists alive while everyone else is dying/recovering
Investments pay off I guess.

i mean you could have a low level cook just make simple meals too

Smokeleaf and beer are the mildest and least addictive drugs. Nice to have both to balance tolerance/addiction.
I also recommend having a bit of flake or yay lying around in case you want to boost your melee guys or don't want your researcher to go to sleep.

Probably another week give or take a few days. Maybe even two if we collect some willing modders to put some deranged shit in. Rimworld doesn't have enough autism-tier content to sustain a playerbase on Veeky Forums. It's coming along though, functional slavery, fluid dynamics and sanitation when?

doping animals, slavery, and dickwolves are community creators I suppose.

I really, really didn't want to train up a secondary cook to make meals.

The debuff from eating nutrient paste for me is offset my the rooms I have for my pawns.
I'm a Veeky Forums fag that got recently sunk into the game. I've had it just over a month and sunk 100+ hours into it.

I used to program switches for a living, so coding isn't /that/ far fetched for me to grasp, so I might start making small mods like weapons or things like that until I get the hang of it.

so what's everyone think of the new patch? any caravan stories?

I've got one!

>went on a caravan
>had a mediocre return for profit

>never did it again

THANKS, TYNAN

Great way to get rid of unwanted refugees is to give them a low quality weapon and send them on a suicide mission to the nearest raider base.

MHmm, odd. Are there any trait mods out there that you can borrow from? It might just be an issue where the new traits are not coming into effect instead of it being related to the wolf race.

I'll be happy if we have our little "reunions" whenever a new update comes out at least. Keeping alive as a general is pretty hard since we lack the same autism the good kind and background as other generals.

That being said we're doing pretty alright as a general, and if anything we've gained so much more activity than the first two-three threads we've made since the update so it's not like we're riding on the coat-tails of the update boom. From observation, it seems that between autistic funposting, storytellers, and modders, and lewders we've created a comfy little colony here in Veeky Forums. We need more haulers and cleaners, however.

I suggest we need to increase our autism by twofold and create a cult. No idea who we should worship but I imagine ((sheriff)) would be the anti-christ.

What's up, fellow fa/tg/uy? C# wasn't too difficult for me to pick up, I'm a Java native and I've taught a bit of Unity before. It's great how moddable the game is, I'm always amazed by how much of what I want I can get the game to do.

I never built the paste dispenser after my first colony. What makes it worth it again?

If you can code in C# I think we can make a rape mod.

xth for Tynan adding ayys into the game

>Are there any trait mods out there that you can borrow from?
Problem is it's a backstory issue, not a trait issue, and the Orassan backstories are identical to mine (because I copy pasted them) so I have no clue why it doesn't work.

I can code in C# but I'm probably not going to make a rape mod. I did make the Psychology mod, however.

Us fucking fa/tg/uys are everywhere aren't we?
But I'm used to C, CSS, and Python. I'm sure C# wouldn't be that big of a jump.
It'll give me a break from the homebrew system I'm stuck on for sure learning it.

It's just a great backup source of medium grade food that doesn't need a cook. For me, it was a investment of a little resource for a total failure of the colony.

I don't need you to make the whole mod, just a repeatable surgery recipe in C# that causes injuries to the torso and legs. I can do the rest in .xml, but surgery recipes like recipe_kill and recipie_addartificialpart are C# affairs, and I can't add to them, only replace them (which is not ideal).

Euthanasia works, but it targets the brain not the torso so it's not ideal.

Just make a recipe_rape and I can do the rest.

are we alpha 17 nwo or something?

Welp, I found a new wallpaper.

On Reddit.

Caravans seem to be an interesting idea but it has limitations ranging from the annoyance of having to "set up" a large caravan and the distances you might have to move to reach a friendly settlement AND back. They seem profitable enough if you can get a route going.

However, the world map system is amazing. It suggests even more map interaction for the future such as setting up secondary colonies (we can already do that but the dev notes that it's a WIP) and perhaps some diplomatic overhauls. You can name your faction now, and other settlements belong whole nations as well, so the groundwork is there.

Horses need to be added into the game in my opinion. That, and the caravan animals (muffalo and camels) need to add a movement increase in addition to its carry weight increase to make trading a bit more viable. Perhaps even vehicles like trucks and helicopters could be added. That would be badass. As it stands, you need a clustered region of settlements to make trading truly more viable than calling in a caravan for 300/600 silver since the alternative is your caravan spending seasons away from your base as they go around your network of trade spots.

>It suggests even more map interaction for the future
Enjoy Tynot abandoning it to add even more half-baked non-features.

We need trains for the world map, to be honest.

That would be pretty easy to do. All you need is to download HugsLib, create a new project in Visual Studio, set its .NET target to 3.5, add dependencies on Assembly-CSharp.dll and HugsLib.dll, and then throw together a Recipe_SurpriseSex from the code for another recipe. Build, throw the .DLL into the Assemblies folder, set the workerclass to MyMod.Recipe_PantsParty and you're good.

>Building train tracks on blood, sweat and tears like those pioneer faggots

Hell fucking no.

Trading caravans spending seasons away from the base is pretty realistic for the tech level, user.

>keeping prisoners alive and healthy, with a luxurious prison
>something went wrong and they break out
>don't want to engage in melee because too risky
>the one I wanted to recruit dies
;_;

Mhmm, right. Didn't think that through. The only thing I can think of is that the code you copy-pasted from the Orassan backstories is no longer syncing up with newer additions because of new values, etc. You probably already assumed that, however.

I imagine there's sometime that should be "tying" backstory attributes and race together that's missing.

at least the subreddit is an alright place. The dev is very active there so I hang out in their threads every now and again to see what the dev may be thinking of adding to the game.

Nice wallpaper, too. It has that dwarf fortress sociopathy-lite feel to it.

I won't disagree. It's why I want new tech added into the game to make travel a bit more convenient. Roads, horse and saddle, trains, etc.

As it stands, once you enter the late-game when you become very self-sufficient you really have no reason to use caravans anymore. I rather keep my colonists around expanding my base and working the fields, right?

Comment. I'm also ignoring the potential for early-game caravans. You get a huge increase when selling goods because of the risk factor. I imagine with a decent starting base you can string together a few settlements together, buying and selling and getting a huge caravan, before bringing back a gigantic haul to your colony.

I might give caravans a shot next time.

That might have been what cause your prison break. You can also try making sure that the "outside" area of your prison is also walled in. Like a prison attached to a closed-in hallway. Unless a wall breaks down I believe prisoners will only escape via event then.

>mixing stimulants and depressants
>user...

You know what they say...

Always drunk beer with your depression medication.

lewd, but I approve. Curie is a cute, and I always enjoy seeing robots as much as I do seeing aliens in my sci-fi.

...

DELET THIS

Aha, it's why I always do my walls layer by layer. It's bad enough when a builder can't get access to a corner wall because the walls beside it block access.

So its finally like DF ...

Local General with Autism: "I am growing stronger"

>Tried out the H.P. Lovecraft storyteller (Double-pop version, to clarify) on Rough to see what he's like.
>Made a solo-colonist start and spawned in a comfy mountainous/coastal map.
>Expected it to be making use of the Lovecraft monsters from the mod.
>Instead, it's raid after raid after raid after maddened animal after raid.

Well, at the least, having the settlement be on the tip of just collapsing is kinda ___fun__ in a way.

Will cows eat kibble?

Do you think the dev or a modder will ever update the sprites for the characters? I get it's prison architect inspired but does it have to be THIS inspired?

Time for Rough Randy.
I wonder how fast will I get fucked.

See the thing about bad art in indie game isn't that they're inspired by something.

It's that they can't fucking draw.

They might? I believe the only animal that doesn't eat kibble are wargs since they only eat raw meat.

Don't hold me on this.

It's something weird I've noticed as well. For some reason the Lovecraft storyteller doesn't actually use Lovecraft monsters anywhere near as frequently as, say, Cass. I can't actually think of any instances where I've encountered Lovecraftian horrors while using Lovecraft himself.

you can make kibble with meat tho. Like kibble is half meat and half plant right?
pawn art needs to be simple and obvious. It's then modified further by clothing and weapons so you have to keep in mind to not fuck up with too much detail because you end up with cluttered mess. I can take a peek at update it I guess. I know that Orassans mod had custom pawns.

who dog here?

>all them are alcoholics with liver carcinomas

what mods toi get your UI?

Click the second button from the left on the bottom right.

from the right*

>dog swarm
Ayyyy, a colonist after my own heart.

das a lot of food

familias, what kind of traders buy art/sculptures?

exotic

What are some alternatives to art and crafting if you need silver but don't have any colonists with decent skills?

is there a mod that allows you to organize a funeral?

hunting, sell every fur/leather you get to bulk traders

crafting drugs/cigs and beer also works

>tfw the plague manages to take away 3 of your best colonists but that one shitty colonist survives it

if you grow food for selling rather than keeping. You won't have to keep it in fridge so just plant huge ass farms of shit in the corner to grow.

>One colonist gets the plague
>Her and another colonist fall in love while I'm getting them to build the furnace chamber to kill her in before it spreads

I don't even know if straight up killing them and disposing of the bodies in a fucking fire makes sense mechanically, but it sure seemed to work; no one else contracted the plague after she burned.

Also her lover was killed like a day later by a fox some how, so at least his misery wasn't prolonged.

Disease doesn't spread, user.

Lol. Fuck. At least she dropped gold.

>tfw when two of the screenshots in the picture are mine
What is it about my forts that makes even the animals try to off themselves

>over 4k slate blocks
>ha-ha time to build the wall

fuck, how do i turn this into granite?

I'd love trucks. And boats.

I'm annoyed that there's no rivers in the game, those would be wonderful for trade if boats were added. Imagine tribals in canoes arriving along the river. Or some trader in a barge from a settlement up/downstream. Or building docks for a large ship to dock. Pirates! Raiders on ATVs or dune buggies or pickup technicals with one driving and the other manning a pintle mounted machinegun.

I would love roads and railways on the worldmap too, and the ability to build some.

Instead of a helicopter I'd go for shuttle and landing pads for shuttles. Dropships for big pirates/raiders raids (which could be captured and used by the player) which would flatten a 15x15 (non mountain) area on landing.

You don't. You go to the workshop, search Concrete, and use that mod instead.

It's weird that you can pour concrete floors but can't pour concrete walls.

see

trade it out.

Looks a bit weird with that color, shouldnt it be grey?

Probably what im going to do, which trader carries them and how much? Maybe ill just make it from slate and upgrade later.

>Instead of a helicopter I'd go for shuttle and landing pads for shuttles
Shit taste.

Your descriptions made me think of using vertibirds from F1 or F2 and cleansing lands from dirty tribals using technology, steel and power armors for the betterment of human kind.

>4 cargo drops of 100+ chocolate in the past season
What are you planning, Randy?

bulk goods trader and you'll be trading them for about 400-500 units a trade with some luck.

I have a disease.

I too think that social gatherings are a bit underused in rimworld. It's just marriages and RNG parties. No religious activities, funerals or executions.

>prison break
>order an execution of a prisoner to discourage further attempts
>build gallows inside prison perimiter
>force prisoners to watch
>colonists also participate
>positive thought for non-kind pawns 'justice was served'
>prisoners get a negative thought but increased time to next mental / prison break

Modders get to work

>sexual orgies
>elaborate parties with wine, hookers, lavish meals
>some kind of meeting where your "elders" vote and discuss things about the future of colony after it reaches certain level of development

Fuck me sideways, that would be good.

Rimworld Night Club when ?

>wanderers/prisoners must do a trial or some sort of initiation to join the colony
>invite tribes to the colony for a diplomatic meetings

...

The game really needs some item ownership stuff.
Also, personal preference things.

>hookers are of course provided by friendly local tribal society who helpfully keep sending dozens of rowdy teen girls to work as your pleasure slaves
>they're so excited that they need to be struck unconcious before putting to work though
Anyway, modders, you know what to do

>tfw constantly asking the nearby factions for traders so I can buy their components and steel
>while selling them tables, chairs and statues
How do I get the pirate faction to stop being hostile to me? Keep releasing prisoners?

Prisoners and then after a while gifts via commstation

what are things i should know before i start sending all of my soldiers to destroy the pirate band once an for all?

Hey prospect of opening Rimworld strip club or whorehouse is nice af.

>armed guards
>no problem with raiders as they spend their robbed money on your girls
>option of kicking the shitout of every raider that mistreats the girl

I dig it.

>hardcore Randy intense colony
>raid
>"oh shit"

>frail torso but a good shot and can do dumb labor
>I need labor at this stage no matter how useless
>drop the guns and stabby things, equip wood

>downed not dead

I didn't think that it would actually work, incapacitated enemies seemed to be completely RNG but I guess you can swing it in your favor with weak weapons that cause lots of little painful injuries.

>raiders come into your colony
>offer them your hookers in exchange for for no raid and temporary peace

>and then have hooker ( that are basically your colonists in disguise ) kill them or subdue them in coitus
>free stuff, free prisoners for organs, slavers etc

Think of the possibilities ...
