How's your Rimworld Odyssey world going?

Still on 1.5, waiting for my bloat to update.

>>715642857 (OP)
What mod was this based on?

Left my colony undefended for literally half a day while I sent my main fighters to clean up a smoke emitter that had been making my crops shit for over a year
Halfway back to base, metalhorrors decide to sodomize everybody
By the time my troops get back everybody is dead except the one highborne who's in a coma because her husband got an iron appendectomy
Incredible storytelling, a majestic tale of me getting fucked in the ass
Considering restating, I did the classic blunder of not reinforcing my military and component supplies so now my map is barren and I don't have the construction required to start making components

>>715643353
This kind of thing is why I never ever ever leave my map for even short periods of time.

>>715643353
Lol, post colony

>>715644161
Turned off my PC for the night so I only have the one picture
I did manage to catch one of the fuckers at least

Waiting for my modlist to update so I can do a naked brutality starting with no research caveman to space run

I just finished tutorial, kinda fun but my kolonizators dont breed. I will have 3 people? How to get more ?

>>715647276
Capture raiders, wanderer/drop pod events. Babymaking if you have biotech.

>>715647276
They show up from random events
Or you capture enemy raiders

>>715643353
Following up on this
I didn't get a grey flesh notification
Can metalhorrors go stealth mode once the event is triggered? Like I know you CAN - wait. Waiiiit
I've heard that metalhorrors only do the alien thing at like 50% infection rate
Is it possible that I had an early infection and my sending my guys out on business caused a population imbalance which then triggered the attack?

>>715647364

Anomaly is the worst DLC

>>715649134
books are cool

>>715649134
What a fucking hot take. You're going to get roasted for this for sure.

>>715649335
I hope so.

>>715649134
Randy sent a bunch of shamblers during a mechanoid event they ended up pathing into the cluster. so satisfying watching these things kill each other for me

what's the comfiest amount of colonists to have so you don't get 100x neardenthal raids since Tynan gutted traps and turrets?

After doing some reading apparently metal horror infection literally gets retconned so you can't really screen new arrivals

gorechad: 1
mechacels: 0

>>715649843
8

>>715649843
Raids are based on wealth, not the amount of colonists you have, although each colonist has a sell value as a slave and contributes to your wealth.

>>715649936
Ok, thanks. Just checking but temporary pawns from quests such as nobles and refugees do contribute towards raid strength despite being temporary, right?

>>715649843
8 is generally the best colony size as each pawn still matters but you have enough to do everything you need

>>715642857 (OP)
What mod was this based on?

>>715650236
SOS2 + Alpha Animals + Designator Shapes + Fishing

>dlc releases for popular game

Is this organic? Nah, MUST be shills!

>>715649134
I like the idea a lot but wish there was a lot more to the entity stuff

>>715650667
>>715650236
Add in some Rocketman

>>715649774
>>715649927
I love when this stuff happens. Like when traders happen to be in the area so I summon a mech raid and they do it all for me.

You can capture enemy raiders and slowly convert them to your cause, I hope you got pawns with good Social.

Addendum kill yourself tranny faggot

>>715649134
it feels like every so often they put out a bit of a stinker that no one really loves(Royalty, Anomaly) just to get some cash in for the next big, serious DLC. Whatever, it's fine. man's gotta eat, i guess.

>>715642857 (OP)
I burned myself out on Rimworld before the patch dropped.

>>715652870
enjoy the first raid lmao

>>715653125
I will, it's worth $695 and will help my goblins gun down any retarded raiders.

recommend me a premade mod list on the workshop

Can someone explain to me how drug scheduling works? I'm trying to set these up so these fags consume one of these types at most once ever X days IF their mood is below a certain amount but it seems the conditions are OR OR since they keep taking them periodically regardless of how high their mood is

>>715654417
what mod are those big trees from?

>>715654940
Agreed. There's potential there, if modders patched its weaknesses.

>>715642976
This. I have a metric shitload of mods that need to catch up before i move on to Odyssey.

Got a pretty cool find

i want to play the new dlc but my autism is too addicted to combat extended

>>715655912
Just play without mods for once.

dev branch of ce is for 1.6

>>715642857 (OP)
I reached endgame without building the ship and now I have to saveup 500 plasteel so I can actually do anything in the DLC

>>715655912
Just Wait™ CE bro.

>>715655912
CE is dogshit though?

Can someone explain what kind of game this is? I've seen it posted around but never really looked into it outside of pictures. Is it some kind of base defense game? It seems pretty complicated, is it hard to get into?

>>715656257
better than vanilla

>>715656297
nah

>>715656332
yes

>>715656275
"A story generator".
It's a colony management sim set in a futuristic wild west.

>>715656381
nah

>>715648667
What happens if they attack the balls instead of the shaft?

>>715656275
>Is it some kind of base defense game?
It's more of a colony building storyteller with a scifi western vibe, but you do end up defending your colony quite a lot.
It's pretty close to Dwarf Fortress except way easier to get into properly and with more.. I guess you could say refined elements.
There's also a lot of moving about, especially with the new DLC.
I'd say you can get a pretty good hang of the game in a couple of hours and see if it's for you, if you do end up liking it prepare to waste way more time than that on the first sitting.

>>715656275
It's a sandbox/base building/war crime simulator game. It's similar to Dwarf Fortress, only you have far fewer pawns, making the individual pawns you do have much more important. Also has a lot of modding potential.
>It seems pretty complicated.
There's a few knowledge checks but it's a lot easier than DF.

>>715656425
Ah, so are there storylines and stuff to make this story? Or is it more of a sandbox where you react to what's going on around you and that is the story?

>>715656275
It's a top down Sims with guns and less paid mods

>>715656764
There are storytellers, 3 default ones and inifinity modded ones that dictate the events and frequency of those events, but it is a sandbox where you decide what you want your colony to be.
You can be a coven of space vampires, ranchers, organ harvesters, cannibals, drug dealers, farmers, vegans, psychic mutants, SCP foundation, whatever.

Such a cool idea for a mod ruined by the author being retarded and/or a cunt.

>>715657097
time to learn c sharp, anon

Ideology and Anomaly are the worst dlcs

>>715657234
>learning coding in the age of AI
Just tell chatGPT to do it for you. We don't need to learn shit anymore.

>>715657423
LOL, you didn't really fall for that did you? Maybe in a few years that'll work, but for now? It struggles to follow basic rules.

>>715657423
nice try, jensen

>>715657714
>favourite mod isn't updated

I don't really understand the issue

>>715656764
It's about 6 years old at this point, but Sseth made a pretty good video that pretty solidly encapsulates the themes of Rimworld.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdAjXDDQPJ0&t=476s

>>715657714
>Maybe in a few years that'll work
So what you're saying is anon should spend a few years learning to code because AI will only be ready to code for him in a few years?

>>715658125
prove it
make it write a CE patch

>>715657714
Nigger every single developer is using cursor

>>715658125
Update some mods right now then

>>715658339
>>715658274
Look in the previous Rim thread

>>715658319
do you work for microsoft?

>>715658125
How do mods being updated actually work? I assume there's loads of shit in the backend like some Minecraft thing where item IDs or something can get their slots overwritten but sometimes there are incredibly small 1.5 mods that should still be able to work in 1.6?

>>715658390
i dont care enough to do that, you're the one making claims

>>715658390
Update some mods right now

>>715656654
Then anon's fucked
>t. lost my right ball

>>715658446
Depends on the complexity of the mod. Some shit is as simple as modifying an xml file. Something more involved like Combat Extended is more involved, and I doubt AI could do it alone.

>>715658209
i dunno that i'd say it takes a few years to learn how to do basic stuff like removing features in a rimworld mod, anon. maybe a few weeks. Plus, teaching yourself skills is useful, you should learn to do that.

>>715658668
Additionally, knowing how to read code makes vibe coding significantly easier. It's still a worthwhile skill.

>>715658446
sometimes it's just updating the ver # and then mass-replacing outdated operators or similar. Sometimes it means entirely rewriting systems because the update fundamentally broke the way it was coded.

>>715658521
What's it like being a testiclops? Do you notice it daily?

I would like to remind everyone interested in this game to never, ever, look for the Rimworld general thread on /vg/.

>>715659208
It's ok apart from vanillacucks tho

>>715659208
I imagine it's just a bunch of degenerate coomers ERPing through rjw

>>715660049
>Sex with children bad
nope. i like knocking up my 15 year old sex slaves

>>715659334

You can.
/rwg/ is fine for Rimworld discussion, just don't be an autist about it and go chimping out about muh tranime.

Are IEDs worth using with CE?

>>715661928
yes, even in vanilla

>>715642857 (OP)
Entering hour 20 of trying to recombine my modlist into something that can run. I currently have 200 mods, 15 of which are outdated and 5 of those make it so the dev menus don’t function and looking at bionic stat pages breaks the UI. I have deemed these acceptable compromises in order to get the game running.

>>715663264
Are you high on yayo?

For me it's hunter drones

>>715663503
fuck I kinda want onslut in rimworld now

sell me this game?
I'm looking for a game that involves survival and strategy

>>715663325
I wish. I finally have a modlist that “works” but has bits of weird things like the two I mentioned. Most of the time was spent figuring out weird incompatibilities brought on by 1.6. Shit like any of the alpha mods breaking map gen and alpha animals in particular causing every pawn both human and animal to have 2 of every body part.

Does the bag hygiene or atmoics mods work with odyssey?

update when...

>>715663659
This is why I don't touch my install for at least a month after new patch.
Too many random bugs.
Good luck figuring this shit out. I mean it.

Vanilla Expanded is good and I'm tired of pretending it's not.

>>715663842
why don't you ask in the workshop thread, everyone love that

why is strive to survive so easy but the jump to blood and dust seems so difficult? maybes its just randy rng, i seem to always lose colonies on blood and dust

>>715661229
>>715661708
Mod list?

>>715642857 (OP)
Is rimworld a roguelike or a colony sim?

>>715665016
both

>>715664687
You can check the actual numerical differences between difficulties with the custom difficulty selection, the main thing is probably the raid point multiplier getting a 50% increase

>>715664556
it's fine, honestly. There are/have been some bad practices from them in terms of performance but nothing i care that much about personally.

>>715664556
Some of it is good, some of it garbage

I can never get enough grav panels. Just let me build a capital ship already.

>>715664687
I jumped to Losing is fun and the mood management is my main problem early game.
Raids get bigger for sure but it's tantrum spirals that get me.

Normally it's 40c where I embarked but now there's a heatwave and it's 55c. What's this about digging into a mountain and how does it help regulate temperature?

>>715657423
ChatGPT can only do basic things. You still need to tardwrangle, debug, and modify the code yourself.

>>715666601
Your mountain base will be cooler if the temperature outside is higher than 15°C, otherwise it doesn't change anything.
You can enable temperature overlay to see the gradient. Also double walls isolate better.

>>715663553
You sold yourself because that's what it is.

>>715667371
>You still need to tardwrangle, debug, and modify the code yourself.
so it's like working with pajeets for lower cost?

My favorite Starsector ship! Having the most fun with Rimworld in years recreating it with the new DLC. Overall pretty great addition, though not SOS2 levels of fun, it's a pretty welcome addition to vanilla.

Wish I didn't take Tunneler today, was a bad decision so far for just saving 2900 watts... This concludes my 4chan vlog, have a good evening!

>>715667639
Smoke leaf is kinda ass. I only use it as last resort because stoned pawns aren't as effective in combat. Beer and Psychite tea are better and Randy loves to give me Ambrosia all the time so that as well.
But it won't help if you kill 200 raiders and 10 of them were family members of your pawns and then psychic drone drops.
Sometimes sleep caskets are the best option.
Deathresting is also good way if I have vampires also good for getting rid of withdrawal.

>>715664561
mod author says to check their d*scord

>>715667668
CE does that for sure, I don't know about other mods.

Guess I'll take sleeping sickness a little more seriously next time even though it's SUPPOSEDLY not as deadly as some other diseases and I literally never have any trouble with ANY of the other diseases hahahahahaha

I never did a toxic wasteland colony. Any tips?

>>715642857 (OP)
I've always wanted to make a Rimworld colony that looks like an actual fucking TOWN instead of some kind of survival commune. But it's so fucking hard to justify that when the world is so hostile and unforgiving.
I suppose I could always turn the difficulty down, but I always feel like I'm running a scam when I do that.

>>715683414
Step 1. Don't
Step 2. See 1.

>>715684347
Easy to do when you wall the base.

>>715684769
My point is that it's just fundamentally inefficient. The amount of floor space for every to get their own house and AC, for example. Rimworld and Dwarf Fortress are very communist games. It never makes any actual sense to give people their own nice shit. I think that quality of housing should be a much larger concern so that the ideal base isn't built like it's an antarctic research facility every time.

>>715642857 (OP)
Oh man, you have to try the Uma Musume game—it’s this insanely polished mobile title where you raise these horse girls (yes, that’s right) into elite racing idols. The training system is super strategic, and you form deep emotional bonds with your characters as you guide them to stardom—and like, the drama? It hits. Like that one arc where Oguri Cap’s career is on the line and she’s recovering from injury, and her whole comeback hinges on that one final race in the snow at Nakayama. I swear, the way she pushes through the pain and wins—I was in tears. The pacing, the inner monologues, even the gritty rivalry with Mihono Bourbon... top-tier writing.

Combat Extended is a given, what else

>>715654940
the problem with anomaly is that the most interesting part of entities comes from discovering how they work
once you've seen an entities once though it loses all of it's mystique and just becomes another enemy, minor annoyance, or free tool

>>715686865
All cure and victory conditions for each anomaly should reset or evolve every few years, or on a new game

Since combat is better you dont need killboxes. They are only necessary in vanilla

>>715686796
For me it was always
>the mod that gives individual body parts their own health and therefore things like cloth gloves+armored gloves together give more armor to the fingers
pros, makes clothing and armor much more important.
Not just for combat, but for roleplay
>if you don't have gloves on in winter, fingers will freeze
>if you don't have fire retardant clothing, fingers will burn if dealing with fire
this is relevant to all body parts fyi

cons, if you're not min-maxing this, it's basically the worst case scenario if you get injured.
a single injury will
>cripple your ability to walk
>cripple your ability to use anything with that hand
>land your character in much longer healing periods

alongside that the additional pharmacy/medical mods. cause guaranteed you're going to lose body parts. So being able to augment the body is important.

haven't played in years fyi, just my favorite mods.

Just beat it, the ending is meh. Kinda wish I made a mechinator beforehand so I could go destroy mechs forever route and just make a flying burn box for the rest of the run. It definitely has a lot more content than anything besides maybe biotech, still wish they could have figured out a way for space combat even if it were to be a janky version of boarding each others ships mid flight.

I also went far to long not realizing you could rotate your ship prior to landing

I had similar complaints, things worth trying:
1) You don't have to go all or nothing, you can have separate buildings without giving everybody an individual house, and sometimes it's even useful
Nice temperatures are mandatory for your sleeping quarters, but your dining room and rec areas only need to be mildly climate controlled, and separate buildings lets you expand more gracefully
Personally I find organic building spread offends my autism less than twisting hallways, and if you really want the security you, external walls are a valid solution that can also be aesthetically pleasing
2) If you find yourself always building identical looking structures, you might want to experiment with alternative room designs
I personally have a very generic freezer/kitchen/butcher setup that I overuse, so sometimes I just say fuck it and experiment with a new layout
3) Consider a change of perception - The difference between a commie block and a cozy fortress can be remarkably subtle
Also you might be surprised at how much nicer things feel when you do something as simple as removing the roof on a major hallway (although you may have to tentatively roof it up if a toxic spread starts)

>>715685105

I use pic related, all are updated. Mad skills, map wide trade beacon and call orbit ships are essentially cheat ones, but with the new DLC you can call trade ships at the cost of rep so now thats replaceable easily. Mad skills I use just because I hate skill degradation.

>>715687996
Dwarf fortress is a much easier game, its only "difficulty" comes from shit UI.
Pic related is when your average DF fanboy brags about playing DF.

Which of the official expansions should I pirate for a long ass modded game with Odyssey? I only played the first two. Do you guys just enable all of them, or dislike some and stopped playing with them?
Royalty: it's an annoying chore, but it gives such nice stuff. Free fodders when assaulting mech bases, etc. I usually keep it on, though it annoys me a bit.
Ideology: I don't really make thematic colonies that much. It feels like it does nothing for my playstyle. I just like my vanilla colony of dudes.
Biotech: haven't played it yet, but looks like harmless to enable, just gives more stuff.
Anomaly: haven't played. this one looks like something you would only use for meme playthroughs.

>one giant wooden box full of electronics and a sunlamp
Yeah, you’re burning to death. This has to take the cake for the noobiest base I’ve seen in 2025. One zzzt or raider is gonna turn that shit into an oven

>>715688662
I like Dwarf Fortress, but you're both right/wrong.
Dwarf Fortress is vastly shittier as a game, but it's a lot better as a sandbox simulation. In Dwarf Fortress the only real way to fail is to have purposeful weaknesses built into your fort on a structural level, IE, not having a drawbridge despite that installing one is fucking easy. You can straight up ignore most of the dangers if you're even slightly proactive.
In Rimworld it's possible to get an immortal supercolony too, but it's a lot harder and takes actual effort and gamesense. The difference is, in Rimworld there's a much harder time customizing the experience to your liking in a roleplay sense. Since you have more legitimate shit to worry about, you need to make more legitmate concessions like always building an autism fort in the mountains or on the coast, shit like that.

>>715687603
Odyssey literally has less content than Ideology in terms of replayability

Anomaly is fun blind your first time, but essentially useless for odyssey and potentially detrimental because a horde of shamblers can show up and wreck your ship to pieces fast.

Biotech is extremely compatible, vampires do very well in space with how hard it is to catch on fire

Because this is /v/. If there's another game similar to the one you like, then you need to autistically screech about it.
You will see Rimfags having melties in DF breads too.

fucking buy the game, play it for two hours and a half, then refund it if you don't like it. why the fuck do you need to be spoonfeeded? you can google 100's of youtube reviews too and gauge whether you like it or not.

>>715689271

there has literally been 0 dwarf fortress threads until rimworld threads came up.
its exactly like how theres no CDDA threads until zomboid threads pop up. its more like 3 retards sperging on their obsure games when a more popular game is being discussed.

Nice cock, bro

I've heard you can't chain gravship extenders so there's a hard limit on the length/width of your ship, is this true

>>715690216
Yes. There's also mods that increase it.

>>715689971
depends on what map size you play, if you play on a larger map it's very likely lightning will be further, but if you're on a small and especially mountainy map most of it's gonna be right on your ass and under the roof where rain won't put it out
if you get it early it's fine but if half your guys are hospitalized with AIDS or some shit when it happens it's nasty

>>715685883
I got really fucked by one of those since the mysterious stranger event got compounded with Nothing There. NT is a night mare to beat as-is, but but the guy had Death Refusal so every time he died a new NT spawned until I had 5 of the fuckers deleting the colony.

Even my hyper-optimized melee psycaster couldn't do shit against more than one and setting off an orbital strike under his feet only downed one NT. I summoned help from 5 factions then and they all got slaughtered too.

So those of you who have played Odyssey, is the spaceship like a small mobile base for a few of your colonists to travel around and eventually return home to restock, craft, etc, or can you just pack up the entire colony and make a fully self sustaining flying city?

>>715690521
it destroys the tile it takes off from, you can deploy an expensive(5 adv compies) structure to protect a map from this effect, but the idea is that the ship IS your base. it's a little cramped but you can live entirely off of it, jumping from tile to tile(and when you're ready you can eventually live on an asteroid or space station, you do still seems to get raids rarely, all i saw was a "raid" of 3 scythers that got owned instantly, this was on losing is fun difficulty with insane value colonists)

>>715690591
Do you start getting normal raids again if you go back to the planet and land there?

>>715690643
yes, I was on randy so it's not like I can attest to the pacing perfectly but they seemed to be completely normal planetside and only one small one in orbit. the description for those orbital traders does say they like to stay "safe" in orbit which implies it might be safer from threats like that in exchange for being so hard to thrive in.

How do I into enough fuel to do this?

>>715691532
You don't need that much fuel to hop a tile or two away. Good piloting skill means you only have to wait a day or less to jump again, which means you can just dodge all the bullshit the game throws at you regularly.

>>715691532
Since you're just hopping from tile to tile, there's little reason to not just genocide every map of its wood, animals, herbs, and iron.

>>715642857 (OP)
Awful. Building in space has me jewing for gravtiles and wondering if it'd be easier to make a normal base and just use the ship for distant raiding.

I love odessy for letting me live out my fantasy of being xcom-style alien invaders that just drop a UFO somewhere and murder people for fun. surrounding your gravship with turrets and landing it really close to enemies is really REALLY funny.

>>715697438
Haven't brought Odyssey yet, why do you think this DLc is lack luster?

>>715697978
It's half assed. Takes concepts from mods, guts them and implements them half way. Armor racks? No storage configurations, no loadouts, just a fancy place to hold 2 items in one cell. A glorified SHELF.
Space ships? A mobile base without any unique events. No enemy space ships, no friendly space ships, literally nothing new. Just fly away any time a threat spawns. NO orbiting mechanics. NO flying into empty space, it has to be a selected tile with shit on it. Space raids are retarded and suicide after a few days because enemies cant 'walk' off into space when fleeing. So they just afk in your base and dig at wall until they die of malnutrition and cannibalism.Did I mention there are no enemy gravships? They just magically drop pod onto your asteroid base.
Many more issues...

>>715698235
What about the main odyssey quest? It seems to be a series of kill X quests that don't care about your ship.

How can I get the game to auto-forbid every shitty weapon the enemies drop? I dont want my pawns hauling Greatbow(normal) back to base wtf

>>715698235
>no enemy gravships
wait what? I saw people with guns on their ships so I assumed there would be naval battles.

>>715698552
Deselect them from all your storage areas so there's nowhere to haul them to. And drugs and corpses and tainted shit while you're at it

>>715697172
>neets who spend over 1000 hours playing the same game over and over again shouldn't be allowed to have opinions or complain about "replayability"
I don't understand this logic. If game is good you would play 1000, 10000 hours. See chess, poker etc.
If you play games to waste your time and consume next product I don't think you can even talk about replayability or game mechanics. Or should post here at all.

I tried Rimworld before, and didn't know what to make of it and deleted it, should I give it another go?

>>715697646
*rapes your food while your cook is forced to watch* oh no no no

>>715699283

>>715699340
Start without DLC. It's one of those games that throws all the DLC shit in your face you when you start a new game, it will probably be overwhelming.

>>715698235
Gravship is more like caravan than functional space ship.

I like that particular mix of mechanics and don't appreciate what came after, like animal pens or barrels for mortars. Also mods compatibility. I like a bunch that never got an update after 1.2

>>715710083
Why do you not like animal pens? I played 1.2 and I didn't like walling animals in. I understand why someone wouldn't like the artillery, but not wanting animal pens is incomprehensible to me.

>>715668104
Why does this DLC look like it does ship construction and gameplay worse than SoS2 did?

>>715710195
i dont like them either

>>715710195
Zoning animals works well for me, especially in case of events like Toxic Fallout. Building pens, especially as a full-on mechanic, is just not for me

>>715710195
It annoys me you can't just let them graze and now they need massive fenced off area, plus wild animals completely ignore fences so it can't be used to keep them away from crops

>>715710927
Okay, that's reasonable. Being able to designate a pasture area for animals that would need maintenance to keep the animals in (perhaps with the help of a dog) would be nice.

>>715711058
It bugs me the moment there's a single tile break in a fence (which have abysmally low hp) every animal immediately stops what it's doing and breaks into a dead sprint for the map edge. Real animal might not notice a gap in a fence for days because they're dumb grazing machines.

>>715711230
>every animal immediately stops what it's doing and breaks into a dead sprint for the map edge
They don't. The game freaks out and spams warnings, but it takes a long time for them to flee. I just ignore those entirely now. The auto-cull feature is good. Any bit of automation is welcome.

Anomaly gives you a choice to keep playing with your new superpowers, a shit ton of shards to make immortal ghouls, and whatever else you got from the campagin. At that point the end game is trivial so there's not much point to it but the same could be said for all other DLCs IIRC.

Stop playing commitment mode. The RNG and slow-ass building/research gameplay is not for it. This is not a roguelike you can just jump back into.

>>715714130
I usually play commitment when I play normally but getting the materials for the ship is such a pain in the ass.

Here's mine.

>>715714290
managing that many colonists looks miserable

>>715714573
Managing as in...? They pretty much just live by themselves.

>>715714290
I wish that you could take geothermal power generators into the air with you and then just land on the nodes. I don't want to build that shit over and over

>>715714124
eastern europe is literally classified as the 2nd world, thats the literal definiton, jeet. Also I earn 100k euro a year and my brother earns 70k euro a year. Apartments in Prague cost 1-2 million euro. 3rd world my ass, retard

>>715714862
On that note, man-populated orbital stations have a special oxygen generator in every room that also produces 3200 power for free. Yes, there are 20+ of them on a station and you can just use them.

rimworld is way better than dwarf fortress because the simulation is more complete. for example, animals can't starve in df. if you lock someone's pet in a 1x1 cell, it won't starve to death. pets just eat food cosmetically, they dont actually need it to live.

>>715714656
combat, any event that requires you to micromanage

>>715715129
I put them in a line in a favorable location and just mow down enemies that stream in. For overwhelming melee forces I have two melee fighters who make the attackers chase them for a bit if that's needed. On pic you see a bunch of walls, and I built that to defend from 50+ guys with sniper rifles. So generally I don't micromanage.

I’m picturing myself cradling a Rimworld as a giant woman as that ship flies up my ass and colonized my hole.

is there a way to designate a zone for harvesting wild plants such as berries and agave automatically when they're 100% grown without the plants dude cutting the plants and planting something else?

Fishing is cool for finding rare items but it kinda sucks ass for food. It's so much faster just to hunt and move on to a new map.

>>715716867
You can disable planting for the zone... Although I'm not sure if the colonists will harvest then. You can build a huge pen and setup auto-cut plants in it.

I haven't played the game since A16, or B17, right when he went from alphas to two "betas" to then release.
How is the game a decade later?

>>715717205
its alright

>>715715059
I didn't realize they did at first until I started preparing a defensive line and all my turrets were active before the power line from the ship was ready

>>715717205
It's gotten a lot more stuff...

when you get the gravship core thingy do you HAVE to build your colony around/inside it or can you just have it on the side without abandoning your place?

Is there a way to use the Bloat Expanded mods without bloating the fuck out of the game? A submod that trims 50% of the superfluous shit or will the fat fuck seethe at you for sullying them?

>>715717456
fork the mod and take out the stuff you don't like

>>715717431
You can build your ship outside of your colony, and if you want to start using it, you can save your colony from being torched by constructing a 250 plasteel building.

>>715717509
>>715717456
Don't even have to fork, there are mods that offer UI to disable anything you like.

>>715717431
You can just have the core sitting there as long as you want.
Actually launching the gravship, however, destroys the tile you are on unless you build and anchor which costs 5 advanced components and 300 plasteel.

One of the better ve mods.

>>715717205
There is more content and QoL features.

>>715717878
Catering to your people's individual food needs sounds very annoying.

>>715717978
Sounds like a great autism simulation

>>715717978
You don't specifically cater to their tastes, you just gotta provide variety in meals, so that you're rewarded for feeding your people more than just simple meals made out of rice.

How do I deal with painsphere?

Landing animation.

>>715718205
Wait for a raid and send it into them.

>>715644396
how does a single chemfuel generator power all that?

Bad People mod to let your colonists turn into depraved people. That's the way.

>>715718205
If Vinny could deal with it, then so can you. Just send it at something and then move your people to the other side of the map. It should eventually either leave or die from combat damage.

>>715718320
Probably has a geothermal generator too

>>715718451
>>715718281
Im doing that but I want it to leave forever.
I tried destroying it with 8 pawns with autopistols lol lmao

>>715654417

>>715718451
>eceleb

>>715718847
honestly beyond the aesthetic reason making them immune to theft and fire damage is worth the extra steel

>>715718205
Throw it a big mech cluster, Imperial tax collectors or whatever. I only did it once and it got rekt.

>>715719075
>immune to theft
wtf there are polish people in the rim?

>>715719075
conduits can be stolen?
I don't think I've ever seen that

>>715654417
>playing gravship garbage
I refuse that faggot shit too.
>whoah so cool!
nigger, fix the requirement on real difficulties to cheese with killboxes and trap hallways. I never get to finish because killing 200 tribals with my 12 pawns is impossible without it.

>>715654940
>still no mod that makes the eternal darkness creatures actually attack wildlife and neutral-hostile pawns instead of just you
life is sour

If you're going to play with the starship, set Anomaly mode to Ambient Horror, so that the damn monolith is not required for literally everything. Fucking faggots.

>>715719845
or just disable anomaly because it's shit

hello I hate shamblers that is all thank you

>>715719910
So of the anomaly's shit is extremely overpowered. Like chronopathy ritual.

>>715719683
>>715719421
yes but they are worth very little so it's pretty unlikely for raiders to target them to steal, but they will break them too if they can get to them. I basically never have above ground conduits, but I also have reliable ways to get infinite (slowly) steel with some mods

>>715719979
If you have shards you have no right to complain. Just make more ghouls.

Here's my ship.
Now can we have the game play more like FTL?

>>715720820
>no components to build launchers
I'm not moving around in those slow-ass caravans. Fuck that.

Just posting my ship

>>715720703
Maps you camp on are guaranteed to have no mine-able resources. Make some packaged meals and trade. Components are in high supply in settlements and caravans.

>>715720846
You could before Odyssey with the mod... And no, with just the DLC you can't because there's no space combat or even weapons.

>>715720920
>plays high-tech version of Oregon Trail

>>715721178
>with just the DLC you can't because there's no space combat or even weapons.

Really? I had assumed that if they were doing this and charging for it, they'd do the mod but better.

>>715721398
Many aspects of the DLC are better. SoS is designed for living in space (and does that better), Odyssey - for traveling around the globe (and it does that better) with some bonus stuff available in space.

This 9 year old started binging on alchohol after reading a necronomicon. Her mother was an alcoholic too.

If you get another raid before their corpses start rotting you are really fucked.

t. never played with Randy

>>715721106
>Maps you camp on are guaranteed to have no mine-able resources
What the fuck? Why? How does the long range scanner work then just spawn a single patch of ore?

>>715712918
i normally make lanes too but every tile counts on the ship so im forced to do it too

>>715724219
It's just how it works. There is a mod that enables resource generation on camp maps, and also if you buy Odyssey(TM), tiles you land on become your new home rather than camps, and so they do have an abundance of resources - they'd have none if you went there with just caravan..

>>715724208
I only play with Randy.
This is why I mentioned it, I often got multiple raids in quick succession.
Randy doesn't care if you are still tending your wounds and your base is burning.

>>715712918
Takes time to climb the first shelf, but then colonist walks on top of them with normal speed.

>>715642857 (OP)
I own all the DLCs yet I have never gotten an ending. I simply get burnt out once all the easily available components and everything slows the fuck down.

>>715724549
shuttles alleviate that now that you don't have to pull out teeth via caravans

Do you need to start a game and get all the way through to building a ship to do the new dlc?

>>715724386
What if I use the "settle" button instead of camp? How long does that tile remain "abandoned" before it despawns and I can roll a new map tile?

>>715724740
I don't think tiles respawn ever. So it ewill be unavailable forever if you abandon the camp. As for the settle, I guess this should also spawn resources, but you'd need to abandon your original colony or enable the setting/cheat to have multiple colonies.

>>715724739
You can start with ship already available, but that comes with a quest that makes robots hunt you. Or you can start normally and the grav core just lands in your colony in a few weeks.

>>715724725
I am trying another play through and will do my best not to get burnt out this time. I strictly play commitment mode because I do treat this as a story telling game.

>>715719075
Also if your entire base is hidden conduits it prevents Zzzt events

Anyone here use Dis*ord know if there's any word on the multiplayer mod being updated? Multiplayer+ships is pretty much the perfect combo, only thing that would work better would be if SoS2 was also updated and ran better/less conflicts now that space is vanilla

I'll get into it when the character editor or prepare carefully are good for 1.6

>>715725847
Quick save/load after every unwanted outcome takes the challenge/fun out of the whole game. Being ridged in how you play creates a stale experience. Thats just me however. I do fear the bow users.

>>715726283
Gonna snip your balls off for the story

you have to down me during a raid first though
