Title. They don't want to go to the medical bed so is it just something that gives them a negative mood status for a while?

Thanks!

A squirrel and my huskie got in a fight and now he has a bite and bleeding. How do I heal him like colonists?

Thanks.

I mean once you get them there is no reason build heaters anymore. I don't even have to worry about crafting them because I just loot the first raiders that come in the winter. The only reason to build a heater after that, as far as I can tell, is to heat your hydroponics room so the plants will grow. The colonists even sleep in their parkas so there is no reason to heat their bedrooms. I think a flat -1 or -2 mood effect for the winter with the parkas on would be nice. Then if the colonists are near a heat source there could be a +3 effect for warming up a little. I started thinking about this because right now the winter is not really all that tough. Your only real worry is food until you start growing inside. thoughts?

So I'm playing on a large map and an alien spaceship part landed on the far side of it. My usual way of dealing with these is to build a solar panel and 4 turrets around it. When its all completed I tell them to focus fire on the ship part. This usually requires a mining operation somewhere near the crashsite, 2 colonists, and a few days of work.

I really like in A9 that I can tell my colonists to eat, so they can be full before they depart on their expedition. Is there any way for me to tell them to hold a meal like the pirates or neutral factions do? That way I could designate a few sleeping spots and build a campfire near the operation and they could spend a few days out there without making the long trip home.

Actually, I think this would be a good mod for somebody who has the know-how. It could include craft-able items like a backpack and sleeping bags. It would allow colonists to move farther away from the base and do actual work. It would also be nice if you could designate stockpiles to only be hauled to be certain colonists. You could combine this to make a sort-of campsite (sleeping spots, campfire, backpacks with meals) and go on a hunting trip. Killing more than one animal and storing them in the zone near the campsite.

Also, kind of related, I think the campfire should not provide heat in the way other things do. It should provide a mood effect, "by the fire", that cancels out the "cold" effect if a colonist is close to it.

Sorry for the ramble, I've been drinking.
Cheers!

What's the difference between .724 and .725? I haven't started a new colony on alpha 9 yet and was wondering if I should update.

Thanks.

So some alpha beavers just wandered into my area and the game says kill them or they will eat all the trees. My first thought was, "so what?". Usually I kill them and freeze them to eat later but these are really far away. Is there any reason I shouldn't let the beavers just do their thing?

Hello, very new player here. This is my very first colony and my main worker/miner person just got her leg blown off when the turret she was standing next to blew up. She is in a medical bed and has no injuries other than a missing leg. Is she out of the game forever or will she be able to hobble around once she has healed up a bit more?

Thanks
