Heat waves are random, but they can occur once every 30 days. I know in a15 certain biomes and map seeds had very high chances of heat waves but aside from that it's more or less random. And yeah, passive coolers are the way to go during heat waves if you have the wood to spare, cooling your rooms to 60F/15C given they aren't too big. Not needing components or power is what really makes passive coolers amazing, you can toss them down anywhere in your base and expect reasonable temps for 5 days, in heavily forested biomes I don't even bother with coolers outside of my food storage.
Blended leather is also found in the Vegetable Garden mod I linked above, build a loom and set a task to blend the leather, it will grab 10 leathers from your stocks and convert them into the multicolored blended leather, you can fine tune the task to only pick certain kinds of leather if you prefer.
I tried the crashlanding mod's hard scenario. It threw nothing but raw food and half-dead colonists at me to scavenge on the first few days. It then spawned an infestation hive next to an ancient room and broke it open, unleashing 2 scythers and a centipede who immediately ran for the colony shit-shack. All the colonists had to defend themselves with was some logs.
Logs are surprisingly effective at beating down mechanoids when you swarm them with 6 people. They'll sit downed outside the shit-shack while the colonists scavenge the surrounding ruins as a sign not to fuck with us or they'll get the log.

Anyway. I just learned that you can have multiple bases? How does that work? How does it relate to that "option" in options? I kinda ran out of components in my area.

It's an option in settings, max of 5. Running multiple bases is just essentially running multiple maps at once with whatever colonies you don't have selected at the moment running in the background.
I probably wouldn't suggest it unless your colony is mostly self-sufficient and you don't have issues with performance on Late-Game saves. Being able to drop pod supplies between a main colony and farm/mining outposts is pretty fun, though.

I've got a mod that lets you start off as a pirate settlement, and another that adds more organs. My colony makes money by harvesting the organs of prisoners.
Someone was working on a WH40K total conversion mod for this game, which looked pretty damn fun. Would be amazing if vehicles were also added. The mods for this game are really something.
The only thing i dislike about this game is that the AI invaders seem so damn simple and easy to abuse.

Ive seen it in a few modpacks so i dont think its a total conversion mod. The closest thing ive seen to total conversion is the SK Hardcore one, and thats more just making things crazy hard than "converting" anything.
I know how to set up basic stuff but I'm scared of setting up electronics.
Any advice or general know how before I start doing that shit?

Don't put machines outside or the rain will make them explode.
Geothermal is the best energy because it doesn't require batteries (which just explode at random)
Don't bother with sun lamps + trays for indoor farming, it takes way too much energy. Better to just stock up during the growing seasons and refrigerate it.

Avoiding the battery problem is simple, build battery houses that you keep detached from you settlement. Keep them far enough away so when they explode violently you can pretty much just let them burn. Or download the fuses mod which can absorb short-circuits to a point.

Electronics not wires require a roof.
Batteries are only good when you don't have geothermal yet. Once you got a few geothermals remove batteries to ignore the bzzzt event.
Keep animal cents from crops with zoning rules. They will eat them and you will want to slaughter the entire map.
Mods are fun.
A good hospital will significantly help your colony even if it's just 1 bed.
Best tip of all. Play how you like and enjoy playing. Thats what matters.

Sun lamps and trays are actually good for medical herbs, because if you get sick when it's not growing season and you don't have supplies, gg you

Ive rarely needed to make a dedicated hospital room early on. Usually just having an extra bedroom and converting it as needed is enough. Also one of the best mods ive used is the one that adds floor mats. No more dragging endless amounts of dirt through your rooms. Helps immensely for hospitals. The mod that adds Hauler/Cleaner bots is also amazing.
As for farming, id say it depends on your base location. If you have pretty bad temperatures then id say having an indoor setup is worth the crazy Sun Lamp power costs.
I rescued this guy from a crashed pod and he's pretty good at handling (got two turkeys and boomrats first try) and the alpaca but I don't know how to shear it for warm clothing.
Also is it worth rushing healing plants when my best grower is level 5? I'm low on medicine because two of my peeps have muscle mtatine or something and one has mental mentanite or something.

Have a separate stockpile for fertilized eggs in a heated area, remove fertilized eggs from cooking menu. Make sure your animals don't eat them either.

Depends on the raider and depends on how high your highest social skills is. Otherwise you end up with an eternal mouth to feed who doesn't pull any weight.
Also yes, I think so if you install the mods manually. But really if you can come up with the cash it's worth it imo.

Executing a prisoner has no potential retaliation from the prisoner, but you're in for a hefty mood debuff to the entire colony if they're not considered guilty (within 24 hours of capture).
Executing prisoners is low-tier, anyway. Send a message by releasing them after replacing their legs with peg-legs, maybe take an organ or two. Your doctor gets bonus practice, no major colony debuff, and they get put back into rotation for potential raiding pawns. Bonus points if you get them addicted to a drug before letting them leave, so they come back with said drug if they're picked for a raid.

I thought so, but I thought it was just for the harvester. Maybe it changed for a17? I know they have mods for it in a16.
Protip: Strip wounded prisoners/raiders before killing them and you won't get the debuff for your crew wearing "dead man's clothes".

I typically only take prisoners if either the stats are good or if I'm feeling especially sadistic. For the latter, I replace all their limbs with the lowest tier prosthetics, strip them and then release them. That way if they ever do come back, they'll be worse than useless to the raiders... and it's fucking funny

You need money and have smokeleaf or you don't care about mood? Start harvesting organs, it has many advantages.
Organs do not rot and they're worth a lot.
They're obviously useful if your colonists develop some bad illnesses.
Your doctor gets the needed practice.
Also, don't outright kill them, either harvest one vital organ or euthanize them to get practice.
Even after harvesting one lung and one kidney you can sell them as slaves, and they're worth a good chunk of silver, so, if you can ignore the thought penalty, they're worth the trouble.
And last, but not least, human meat is expensive, and it doesn't give penalties for making kibble with it.
Is particularly bitchy with the scythers and the other silicons. If you nail one alive you can extract their blades, and they're worth a fuckton, but good luck only leaving them unconscious, and without breaking the blades.
A good way to deal with shitty pawns is to have them arrested and leave the door to their cell open. You're rid of a shitty colonist and without any mood penalties to boot
