Stories / Let me tell you about Viktor
April 25, 2016, 05:51:46 PM
Viktor was recruited into the Colony after a failed raid
He 53, pessimistic, psychically sensitive, Ugly, and tbh he's kinda fat.

He cant do jack! Cant cook, cant farm, wont haul, fight fires, nor do anything creative like build, repair, taylor or craft anything.

When he first arrived I sent him into all the dangerous places, and gave him only a shiv to protect himself.
tbh i hoped he would somehow die as he was just taking up a valuable bed-space and i begrudged the amount of food he ate.

In the hundred or so days hes stuck it out, hes had the flu, malaria (2wice I think), lost a leg to a cougar, and had his arm blown off defending our home. He has aburn scar to his right eye and no longer has a nose. (shot off)

He is though, very sociable, and meets all the passing traders, when he's not busy he will sit for hours researching all manner of new technologies. Despite his charm he has been rejected dozens of times at every turn by Queenie, a rather beautiful and very capable lady who's been here from the very beginning.

He is now an absolute boss strutting around with his trusty mini-gun, protecting all and fearing none.

Viktor, I love ya man, your the heart and soul of this place, and if you die or leave, I'm out too


Does anybody else have a Viktor out there?

General Discussion / Bedroom temperature
April 25, 2016, 03:20:47 PM
Whats the best temperature for a bedroom? and does it make a difference if your in a hot climate or a cold one.

And a sill question but do the heaters also regulate temperature (as you can set them to less than the 21centigrade they are built at?

Thanks

Mods / (Request) help finding a mod
April 21, 2016, 04:03:19 AM
Can some one point me to a mod that helps me manage my colonists. I've seen a few people on videos with a load of character icons at the top of the screen and think that is what I'm looking for.
Basically I want something to make it easier to find my guys and to make it less clicks to see what gear they have, or what their needs are. Is this a Mod that exists?

Also apologies if this has been asked before or if the question would have been better in General.
I did have a browse around first, but I don't really know what term to put in a search

Many Thanks

General Discussion / No Ordinary Raid?
April 20, 2016, 05:32:14 AM
There will be a tldr at the bottom

But Rimworld seems to drive you to explain how the story evolved, I feckin love it

Leftville was progressing beautifully, then one day a raid arrives, but they "Only" have bows, so I mostly ignore it. The battle ends up being brutal, its a bloodbath, everyone but Limi is in a hell of a mess. She throws everyone into a medical bed and captures the main offender, Bubos.
Sadly everyone dies of there injuries, including Limi, but for some sick reason I decide to watch Bubos die in jail, after all he deserved it.
But the hunger drives him berserk, and he breaks out of prison, I'm gobsmacked, just as he is mere feet from leaving the area..
A wanderer Joins! Holy salvation, maybe Leftville can recover.
But Leftville is a hellhole, Ivy manages to capture a few people from various raids, but they always end up dieing, I could write a book on the events leading to the point of the post.
However, Ivy captures Nestor from a raid, Nestor is in prison but refusing to listen to reason. And leftville is raided again, but the raid is different.
Sachiko and his pal decide to mine there way through some stone and try to break Nestor free, unfortunately for Sachiko, the explosive he places on the cell door injure and knock him and Nestor out.
So Ivy rebuilds the cell and imprisons them both.

I have no idea what's going to happen next, food will likely run out soon, as Ivy wont Haul, cook,clean, or plant, and the blight last season wiped out every crop. Maybe Nestor and Sachiko will join up..........

TLDR
Raiders tried to break another prisoner free by mining through rock and laying Explosive on the cell door.
Is this unusual?

I thought I was teaching Nursey "how" to do operations, yknow, for when she might need to perform this on someone else.
I only found out something was wrong when all the screaming started because Limi botched the operation. Shes Ok now if you can call hobbling about on 2 peg legs OK. Dam good job I didnt try to train her to harvest hearts I guess

Is there anything else I should know before I hurt someone else?
