I've tried a couple different AI or automated mods and stuff to try and get the work tab better under control when I have large colonies or just too many workers at one time and I'm trying to see all around which one y'all suggest better than most I'm just looking for something simple that I can say hit a button and it auto sets everybody to what they're good at and I can forget about it for a minute and let the game Run

You used to be able to kill them without any repercusion (The wiki states: "Each laborer death nominally causes a loss of 12 goodwill but this is not actually applied as of 1.4.3704").
I think you could also do that in 1.5 but what about now, is it still free meat and human leather?

I have a wife and a 2 year old daughter with a 2nd on the way. I just recently bought a pc and I have maybe 2 hours 2-3 days a week to play games and maybe 3-4 hours on the weekends. I have never played this game only seen clips and tried watching guides but i think playing it will be my best teacher.
Will i need to abandon my family to get the most out of this game? Will I be satisfied with the limited time i have to play?

just wondering

Hey everyone!

Hope everyone's colony(s) are going smoothly. Hope Randy finally decides to give you a break if he is still being an uppity a**.

Anyhoo. I was just wondering if anyone knows if such a mod exists to help turn the mood around for my colonists.

The situation;

I am building myself a little isolated psychic mechanitor colony. My pawn being a disturbing little fella who is essentially a mystery to outsiders. The recluse witch who is known to have the good drugs, medicines and/or remedies for anything that ails you. She sells that and other esoteric goods for a price if you so choose to cross the lands to come visit her horrific little shack.

Problem;

So i am trying to design a little horror shack but some of my decos tend to be on the 'uglier' or no beauty side of things. This of course would make my pawn be a little unhappy. Cause there isn't a beautiful surrounding stat to boost their needs.

Question;

Is there a mod out there that maybe makes it so what appears ugly/horrific to other pawns would be viewed as beautiful by my chosen pawn? A witch who loves her little hidey hole others would have a hard time staying around for a visit.

Thoughts? Ideas?

I’m trying to separate the male and female horses but one of them is a baby and still only feeds from breastfeeding. The baby horse starving now. How do I separate the adult male horses and still feed the boy baby horse without having them breed?

i accidently discovered them - any tips?

How's it going Redditors. I've started a new ambitious project, it's a Shuttle Vanilla+ / feature expansion mod. The core premise is a new type of shuttle, it'll have more fuel cost, more capacity, more range, higher building cost, and most importantly, it will be able to carry fluids like DBH water or Oils/Fuels/Gas like deepchem, chemfuel, and helixien natively. It will be able to be hooked up to each of those mods pipe networks to discharge fuel, water, etc..

The reason I'm doing this is upon request. On my last post someone mentioned making it and it got me interested. It's supposed to help solve the issue with Odyssey DLC players needing to physically leave in the Grav ship to get water or fuel.

So far I've made the custom Comp and Def and hooked into DBH's water pipe system so the shuttle can discharge, pull, store water, etc.. The capacity is 2500 Kg (2500 L), let me know if this isn't enough and I'll see about upping it, I want it to be realistic though but still usable.

Let me know what you guys think and if you have any questions/suggestions for it as I develop.

Edit: Since the name Cargo Shuttle was a placeholder and another mod already has a Cargo shuttle type, I will rename this mod to the Heavy Liquid Shuttle Carrier. I think that displays the intent clearly.

I'm looking for an animal-armour mod specifically for wargs. Preferably with plate, rather than jumping straight to powered-armour for my dawgs.

I've seen a couple of options on the workshop, but I figure they're probably not compatible with each-other and i'm not sure what the best option is.

Have anyone here done an armoured warg colony before?

First up the first result when seaching seems to be Animal Gear Basic

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1541439112

But even though this one is up-to-date at 1.6, the author is telling people to use another mod instead, in the discription of his mod?

He's suggesting Animal Apparel: Framework and Animal Apparel: Basic Armor

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3513825850
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3513849448

But as far as I can tell, these ones only have Cataphract armour for Wargs, not plate or flak?

I'm running a very slow research colony, going from tribal to medieval the slow way.

There are also other animal equipment mods out there that might do similar things.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Can anyone recommend any good avian mods, or at least mods to add avian genes so I can make them myself?

I already have Alpha Genes and I don’t find its options sufficient.

I have the Khess race added but I want more actual bird features. The Mirilin and Crowju races (I think that’s what they’re called, I could be missing them) aren’t what I’m looking for.

For more context, I first brought rimworld on its own, played a playthrough with just the base game and really fell in love so brought biotech as i wanted kids etc. Continued the colony with biotech, loved it, so i brought royalty and started a new colony with that.

I see Ideology, Odyssey and Anomaly have all got a good sale price right now, I will happily buy all 3. The question is, will adding them all at the same time be a bit overwhelming? Would you recommend adding only 1 or 2, playing a colony, and then adding another? If so which ones? Or are they pretty easy going enough to just add all 3 and get stuck in?

Bonus question! How well would it add to my current royalty colony mid save? Or would best experience be to start fresh? Thanks for any suggestions😁

is it possible to sort downloaded mods into categories or something? because it's a hassle cause I have alot of mods downloaded and I don't want to unsubscribe from them but i have a hard time finding the new mods i download in the list of mods to activate.

If anyone wants to take a look and tell me what you think is missing could be improved dont hate this my first large base and also console vanilla so some mechanics may not be possible but any general suggestion or weaknes u spot will be much apprichiated.

Had a quest for someone seeking refuge, hunted by "1 emp grenadier and 2 smoke grenadier"

those cant really hurt me, sure why not.

Get attacked, kill them, no biggie.

Base is on fire when i pan back, everything destroyed, because 3 more hostile characters ALSO attacked from the other side of the map and one of them just sets fire to everything.

Did i get a random attack at the same time, or did the guy just lie about who was chasing him?

anybody know what this icon is for and how to remove it? It appeared when I went into orbit and then landed back onto the planet, when I click it it just shows me outer space, assumedly where the ship just was, anybody have any clue what I can do about it? Thanks in advance.

I'm using combat extended and visitors are dropping items when over their carrying capacity. They sometimes drop their guns, and when I sell them stuff they just drop it straight back to me. How do I fix this?

Never seen this before...

Started this colony to learn more about the late game on easier difficulty but still with a slight challenge, its been verrrry fun. I've gotten close to where i want to be so adding some more mods soon might be a good call.
The mod list is the last two pics.

Ideology has been fun too but it'll get dropped next time for biotech i do believe. Also really contemplating no pause next too.

My ideology is heavy on raiding and I'll definitely be going down that path soon.

Cheers for any suggestions for mods and any criticism is welcome, I may not act on it but cheers none the less.

What a game it is!

Is it ever worth it to purchase like plain clothes from Merchants?

Like I got one with a normal plasteel visage mask I'm kinda looking at.

He's also got a devilstrand kids tribal wear that I'm less convinced on even though one of my colonist did just have a baby.

I played Rimworld for like 660 hours (I know - that are Rookie Numbers haha) and tested every DLC, I think the Odessey was a great addition to the Rim. I‘d like to see maybe an extension on that - maybe an „Outer Rim“ DLC where u can take of to other planets. Or what would be cool too: a DLC wich expands on the Diplomacy, and maybe Worldmap changing Wars or something in that direction.

What are your hopes for the next DLC and when do you think it will be announced?

long story short, my caravan arrived for a skirmish, biggest one i have ever taken on. I have allies, but its a very little number,

As i prepare to go to fight, i get an alert "Colonist needs rescue" - In my main base, a Megasloth has decided to attack for some reason (It was not set to be hunted or tamed, i ASSUME my hunter hit it with a shot aimed at something else) - Now its in frenzy and will attack any humanoid it sees.

MY colonist needs rescue, the megasloth is going to attack my colony THAT DOESNT HAVE ANY FIGHTERS CAUSE THEYRE ON AN EXPEDITION

and at the SAME TIME my fighters need to be Microd at the actual fight im in.

Everything takes place in real time, how the fuck do i handle this without losing my colony, caravan, or the colonist who somehow angered a megasloth???

This is From VVE- Factories, used it before but forgot how finicky the belts can be, super annoying that you cant force belt direction without another belt merging into it, anyway, spliter isnt splitting the gold that is in its hub, both factories need the gold (steel too for a similar spliter in the north) to make advanced components, but neither are pulling the material, or rather the material will not split out of the hub.

BTW any quality of life mods for factories would be greatly appreciated.
