Bottom post of the previous page:

I am absolutely shitfucked that you still can't reclaim bionics from dead people

They should be even easier to recover from the dead than normal organs, they aren't gonna rot

+1 on the organ harvesting bit. Especially later on in the game when you can procure Joywires to negate the mood debuff.

Honestly the organ market should be rebalanced. They're expensive as fuck, so it's always worth your trouble harvesting... but that doesn't make a lot of sense.

The worth of human organs is higher than it should, when you consider how little effort it takes to grab someone and harvesting them, and for some reason, instead of decaying in hours flat, they behave like non organic material (just don't left them unroofed)
Sure, hearts should only be available in live victims, but the rest, as long as they remained undamaged should be ok as long as the corpse is still warm.

Also, I decided to make a psycho redneck community for kicks, cannibal, psychopaths and two of them brother and sister and married, I expect both long pork and all kinds of drug to flow like spice.

I disagree. The mood debuff is enough to make your colony fall apart if you don't manage it extremely carefully. Organs themselves in the real world are valuable as fuck, so the high cost in-game makes sense.

In the real world you don't have a steady stream of random fucks attacking you for you to capture and harvest for spare parts.

Point is, organ harvesting in Rimworld comes at the cost of your colonists having mental breakdowns and killing each other. Plus, the more organs you try to harvest from someone the greater the chance of failure.

Someone mod rim world to allow for carcass organ harvesting

Made a tribal colony and it's much easier than the crash land.

Although I had some problems with storage and cooking. How can I make my chef grab food from my freezer and not the freshly harvested stuff?

You can add a max range to bills so you can force him to draw from the stockpile 10 tiles away instead of going across the map

Oh shit how do I do that

So I had this testament to unrobustness called Eita, who wouldn't firefight while being a pyromaniac, who would always tantrum and pig on food or go on a burning spree.

The last straw was seeing him being taken out by a SQUIRREL. The squirrel was breakfast, he was dinner.

I'm on a genocidal crusade against pyromaniacs.

Send them on one man suicide raids on your enemies, or exile caravans across the map with no food

Close Also handy.

Someone made a Lizardman mod, you can now kill the dirty tribal lizards, eat their corpses and make their skins into your hats. Or be a filthy lizard and raid hoomuns.

That's a funny way of spelling T. Rex Kibble.

t-rexes are overrated as hell tbh

Capture a lizardman and make them join you, turn their skins into masterful and expensive hats after you've finished using them as a bullet sponge, they have low intelligence so you can probably dazzle them easily.

Do you honkthe night?

Have a skilled marksman use a bolt action rifle, he can basically solo all the cunts.

i do this but my issue is once they start their attack, if they have melee units that can close the gap all of my pawns are going to be wounded

Can you build turrets? If so they are an excellent stand-in until you can get more personnel.

I'm a savescumming faggot so don't take my advice lmao.

Certain mods at a lot of early, cheap defenses that are good against ungas.

Beyond that depends on your base layout, get lots of fall traps and a long corridor with sandbags or some other shield you can shoot over and have your marksman pick them off. Otherwise the old wood floor maze + molotov does wonders.

Layout is everything. Earlygame, you'll want chokepoints and a dark room to shoot out of. A target in darkness has reduced accuracy to hit them.

Like, build a pillbox room and take out the walls (make sure to leave the corners standing) facing towards the chokepoints and put sandbags in their place if you're playing vanilla or whatever. Add deadfall traps around the outside of the sandbag perimeter as well to screw over meleefags

This got changed like two years ago

i like to go for a mountainous area by the river. i find a place where the mountain meets the river and then use that mountain as a big fuckin wall. i wall up all the holes in it and have raiders push in through the river. the water slows em down and you can take shots at them.

alternatively try this mod: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/ ... =722085442
it gives embrasures (walls that cant be passed through but can be shot through, from both sides). these are really good against melee units like animals or tribals, but i still like them since they give a viable alternative to killboxes and since pirates/mechanoids can still shoot through them from the other side there's still risk involved in using them.

Great game when using a bunch of mods (not that it's bad vanilla though). Some of them are kinda OP, like tilled soil (free 200% fertility), but then you can drag the balance down again by adding mods that add more dangerous raids/events.

I have been playing with so many mods for so long i actually have nothing of value to suggest for a vanilla player other than reevaluate why you are holding yourself back from the limitless potential of this game.

Particularily like anything that adds more aesthetic fortifications like trenches and embrasures, as well as manned turrets. Recently played with the Warhammer 40k overhaul as an outpost of imperial guardsmen, ended up running a tau labor camp in order to source minerals to create our wargear. Got bored and made a run for the landed ship since it was in a desert relatively close rather than polar ice caps a billion years away. Got stuck in, fought off waves of eldar and tau with the odd mechanoid wave in there until the ship was ready to launch and then escaped. Good fun. Probably going to try a Medieval times mod run with no outlanders pirates or mechanoids

I'm giving the dust another few weeks to settle before I hop back in and see which mods are still functional and which ones are dead (such as our very own SS13 mod that hasn't been updated since B16), last I played I was having a blast with the dinosaur mod + animal prosthetics + saddle up mod that let my primary combat squad of my merc faction run around on raptors and trikes like it was some Ark:SE RTS. Then got wiped out by a 50~ man Orion raid full of power armor, mortars and so many damn explosions.

I might be imagining things but I think I saw the SS13 mod in the list of junk updated to 1.0 while i was perusing the workshop. There is at least 200 new updated 1.0 mods every time I check. I can't really consider the game complete until Combat Extended gets updated which probably wont be for half a fucking year, but once it is we can finally rejoice that we will never have to wait a year for that shit ever again.

Glitter tech is notorious for this.

Glitter tech is also notorious for being a prime example of bad balance.

it ended up being medieval times that rocketed my wealth

nice thing about mods is that they've historically seen themselves implemented into the game if they're well received.

That's the rimworld experience for me at this point

mAI has been super buggy since 1.0 to the best of my knowledge, if you're using that there is a chance your pawn is bugged and flagged as a mAI.

nope, i dont use that one. im guessing my issue is from conflicts rather than any one mod, but honestly i'm not sure

A list/load order helps to trouble shoot, beyond that best of luck with that google search.

Been playing this again, wish the guy who did the Syndicate Weapons/Classic mods would update to 1.0, I miss being able to hose down tribals with L6s and running in with eswords to finish off the survivors.

There's direct connect and I believe a very basic server list, it uses the framework steam gives for hosting/connecting I believe. It has almost no sync issues with the vanilla game (caravan events/faction calling via comms console are disabled due to sync issues) and supports XML mods fully. Some DLL mods work too as long as the gameplay element they add have no external UI for players to interact with. The guy who made the mod went MIA but it was opensource so people already picked it up again and there's an unofficial API for making your mods multiplayer compatible.

It honestly feels like a vanilla feature with how well its done, I've had 3-4 hour sessions with 3 other friends with zero desync issues and we were able to come back to the save on a later date. Really fuckin' good mod.
