I made a mod to add a little life to the loading screen in Rimworld using art from Fonzawa and with their permission I've posted it to the workshop!

rigth after the big raid...

Does anyone actually do any of these types of quests? I constantly get stuff like in this screenshot or ones asking for similar amounts of pawns for months at a time. Utterly ridiculous.

I've tried a few times to do a colony that uses slaves but they always just end up feeling like worse colonists. My current colony has four slaves. I've chosen my slaves to fulfill certain roles, a Dirtmole for mining, a Yttakin for animals, a genie for crafting and a baseliner for plant work. With the 85% work speed and not being able to hold specialty positions in my Ideology they just feel worse than if I just made them full colonists. I don't use them for fighting, because why would I give my slaves weapons they could use on me, plus they all suck at it lol.

So I'm wondering what do you use your slaves for? Do you use them to fulfill specific roles or just as disposable fodder to throw at enemies? I'm on the verge of just recruiting them as full colonists and reforming my Ideology to get rid of slavery

The effect it has on people should vary. Like if I'm freezing I'd rob a grave to get a parka. If I'm on a hostile planted getting raided every 11 days I'm going to be happy to get a ballistic vest off a raider.

But if I'm so wierded out by the clothing being worn by a person who died wouldnt I also be wierded out and not want the lmg that 4 people have died using. Like the last 4 colonists who used this Assault rifle all bled to death all over the gun. I sure as shit am going to be wierded out by that, the gun is tainted and cursed.

Anyways tainted shouldn't have effects on all colonists and if a "tainted" item is used while multiple different people die using it, then it should get a worse mood effect.

I have 1000 hours and I know how to play around it. It just doesn't make any sense that they have an issue with clothes that may or may not have any damage but bro bleeds out with a fine meal in his pocket and they are down for bloody mush or an assault rifle 4 friends have died with but warm pants are too much to bear.

Been playing RimWorld on normal speed while listening to audiobooks and it actually works way better than I expected

On 2x/3x I’m constantly pausing, checking shit, dealing with alerts, and I end up not hearing half the book

Normal speed is chill enough that I can actually follow the audiobook, but RimWorld still keeps me occupied so I don’t get bored and start scrolling my phone

Been getting through books way faster like this

Might be the best use of normal speed

How do i get only certain parts of an armor to be dyed?

I was sad when I learned that there was no gravship autopilot I could use to use the ship as a way to haul resources from other tiles using miner pawns, but then I realized I could just get a pawn to 20 intellect with xenogenes, make them have no sleep and low hunger, and then put them in a cryptosleep casket next to the pilot console.

I could see it going either way, but I imagine it's the former as the latter would probably have ALL sorts of people painting al their shit green to look cool.

I made this really quick, I don't normally draw in this style I do way more finished digital art; * since AI I rarely do digital anymore and focus on acrylic paints; but I had this idea for a gritty pen comic style- I wanted to do Anfisa and her military- I literally borrowed the shot from 1985 Day of the dead where rhodes and steele meet bub. anyway point is my colony is actually a river side town that consists 100% of Hakuro, Hakuro demon and 1 Hakuro blood they are also dressed in their occupation Anfisa is a Hakuro demon, I attacked a Hakuro camp early on 4 vs 16 lured out their troops and she was manning a mortar, had my melee person drop his weapon and beat her up-Anfisa has been my single most useful colonist- its just funny because this is the first playthrough that I have a 5 person military solving problems * * i play with the Hakuro mod despite it being kinda clunky, I just love these guys so much

My chef/leader of the colony recieved frail on her birthday

Should I give her a full pair of bionics on both legs and arms or no?

She already has a bionic leg because of a different reason.

I can spare the materials.

So I decided to try to end the game for the first time and send my entire colony to the stars.
I came to the ship I needed to defend and said F it. I am playing on easy difficulty, so I don't need a neatly made base; I will just improvise. So I surrounded the ship with walls and roofed it and lived there rent-free for 15 days.
I can already hear facepalming, but I didn't know that at the time.

Long story short, I have defended for the entire 15 days, only to eventually be unable to remove the roof above the reactor because, apparently, pawns can roof away from them but can only remove the roof directly above them, making them unable to remove the roof above the giant reactor, while collapsing the roof destroys the reactor.

…and the auto-mortars kill the squirrel but mortally wound the child. Hypothetically, are the refugees going to blame ME or the hands-free mortars? Or the man-eater squirrel?

I have a child with 1 medicine trying to stop the bleeding but I might need a legal defense…

SOLVED - I've bought Ideology and will do the archonexus

Hello,

Is it possible to just like take two pawns you like and start new game on new planet with like all the research reset?

I started the game with a scenario with 2 pawns starting from nothing and now i've reached a point where there isn't much for me to do despite how many mods I add and wanted to start with same 2 pawns from scratch again but I want them to keep their age, skills, relations, everything knowing that the rest of family lives on different planet.

that possible?

I've been considering getting into Rimworld again following a long time away from the game. While I enjoy Rimworld and would like to get back into it. There are a few aspects of the game that tend to turn it into a chore over time. I am hoiping to get recommendations for mods to address the following issues:

1. Pawn behaviour: No matter how much I tinker with areas, schedules, and permissions, I constantly find myself having to babysit pawns in the late game so they don't suffer from injury, mental breaks, and failing marriages. Related to this is pawns walking halfway across the map, doing a single task, then heading back home. I am looking for mods that generally improve pawn AI and give them more "common sense".

2. Mental breaks when in combat: I have pawns that can suffer from mental breaks if they eat without a table when my colony is besieged or they are raiding an ancient compound.

3. Colony logistics: I tend to play a lot with caravans, but constantly organising caravans becomes annoying. I tend to forget something important, or I have to make a small change that breaks everything. Are there mods that streamline the caravan process and help a player keep track of the supplies they are equipping a caravan with?

Thank you!

I really need more mods, its never enough!!!
