A compatability patch for Expanded Prosthetics and Organ Engineering would be awesome, I've such a soft spot for outfitting my pawns with bionics...

Sieges because of incendiary ammo and the increased accuracy (does skill come into play when firing mortars?).

But drop pods can be pretty tough too if much of my base is outside. But they should probably be pretty hard. Does the trade beacon trick really work though?

Raids by tribes can also be pretty tough to deal with if I haven't made a killbox of some sort where I've herded them into range since their bows outrange turrets and most weapons that aren't rifles. Have happened a few times that my sniper got counter-sniped by like half a dozen archers
I should probably try building sniper's nests further back from the main line when they come.

This is how the freezer in question looks like now, I tried building the outer wall as insulation when I was experimenting with venting the coolers inside. That many coolers and not venting outside had the temperature at about -5 to -10 celsius when it was about 30 degrees outside. Opening up a roof tile made the coolers easily reach the target of -19 celsius in the same weather. Question is, does the wall help insulate now as well or is it just going to be decoration?

i always have my coolers in a 2x1 area with the roof open at the hot side, so they vent out. makes them work much more effectively.

Yeah, it appears venting the exhaust outside is so much more effective in the current build than to vent it into the rest of the base. The setup shown with an unroofed exhaust area is a bit excessive. I could probably freeze a room at least twice the size if not (a lot) more

As the topic says, I want to build a freezer (mostly to store corpses) but I am having a hard time actually keeping my freezer cold. I think I may have made it too big (a little smaller than 12x14), but adding additional freezers doesn't seem to help. I vent outside by default, but I also tried building a long corridor outside of the room(s) instead but it didn't seem to help, I tried having it both unroofed and roofed. I think I will barely be able to keep it refrigerated when the heat goes up, one of the rooms are hovering at about 1 celsius and it's only 23 celsius outside. I have an airlock to keep the temperature within as well.

How do you guys setup a freezer in a jungle (screenshots?) or do you just skip it?

EDIT: Oops, forgot to set the temperatures of the new freezers this time. Seems to be working now. Fingers crossed, but  I'd still like too see how people set up their freezers and refrigerators!

Those mods looks awesome, thanks Minami (and Kitsune)!
I know what I'll be playing tonight, though I wish I didn't have to work today

It would be nice to add the Embrasure mod as well I think, I always use it cuz I like building little bunkers

I think ETA will be 3days from now. But that's the worst case.

I'm almost done updating CustomEvents, I'm gonna start working on the main mod later.

I'm a bit excited on the next release! It's gonna be the BOMB!
It's got a lot of new Interactable Buildings!

but husbandry won't be in it yet. I'll be polishing husbandry a lot so I want it to have it's own release version.

Awesome, thanks! Looking forward to it

Hate to nag, but I am just wondering if there is an approximate ETA for the next version? I like this almost a little bit too much to play vanilla now

Hello there!
Been having some fun with the latest version, sadly no missile launcher for me yet, and I noticed a bug. Reloading a save game when that event chain with the three terrified survivors from a ship causes it to start anew, giving you another three survivors. I only noticed it the second time I reloaded so all of a sudden I had to cram 9 people into my prison
