Mechanites is a type of disease that can actually help you. Sensory mechanites will increase your pawn's sight, hearing, manipualtion and eating(?) by 50%. Fibrous mechanites will increase moving and manipulation by 50%. When you first get the disease you can notice that it says "mild pain". Every colonist that has mechanites will get a 5 mood debuff from the pain (unless you have a painstopper or he is a masochist), and get tired at a 1.7x rate. If you leave the illness untreated the amount off pain and the tiredness rate will increase. Mechanites usually pass in 1-2 seasons.

So long as nothing was copied wholesale I don't think it would be much of a problem. Space Engineers is doing exactly this, even allowing fans to drop pull requests on Git to help them complete features and fix bugs. I'd love to take a look at it as well.

That's pretty cool. I took a look, and such a game is way too complicated for starters. I think RimWorld would be perfect and not too complicated, especially not in the first alphas.

Hello. I am a hobby programmer currently trying to learn how to make games, and I have a noble request. I think it would be cool if maybe the source code for RimWorld was released (to be opened in Unity and edited directly from there), so us new programmers could learn something. Now before you instantly go ahead and tell me I do not at all expect the latest source code to be released, I am not stupid, but I think it would be cool if we could have a look at the code from maybe alpha 1, or even earlier, just to see how the basics work.

What do you guys think? Maybe if this gets a lot of attention Tynan will see it.

Just figured it out, had his area restricted :/

Feel free to close this

Okay, I have a colonist who almost can't do anything. I have set up the correct priorities, but he won't do anything therefore giving the message "1 colonist idle". If I select him and try to prioritize a task, such as cleaning, it just says "Cannot prioritize (rock rubble x 3 is forbidden)". This applies for all other tasks as well, like constructing. It just says it is forbidden. This happens to no other colonists, just this one. I can still draft him and move him around, making him a little useful. Do you maybe know a potential fix?
