Example.

These posts show up roughly every week and I was quite certain that there's a mod that's causing them but this time there's low-quality evidence that it's vanilla. Which makes sense given the sheer amount of posts.

I don't have any further concrete evidence but I thought it's a good idea to attract attention to this issue as it seems popular. Please close if it's already known and/or known to be a mod issue (in that case, people would probably love to know what mod this is!).

In the attached save double-clicking on an uninstalled ship landing beacon selects only 2 out of 4 beacons.

This may have something to do with the fact that two of them were installed and then uninstalled after all four were brought in by caravan from the deserter quest.

The save was produced with a few QoL mods but I can reproduce the bug when the same save is loaded without mods.

If a friendly quest-helper pawn (eg., a mercenary) decides to leave (eg., because the quest is over) in the middle of rescuing a player's colonist, the mercenary keeps carrying the colonist off the map. Once the mercenary leaves the map, the "kidnapped" message appears.

A more sane behavior would be to drop the colonist immediately instead.

The screenshot below demonstrates Honorius kidnapping Slick with a smug look on his face. Ancient macro-engine block appears at the background. The work somehow combines the concept of lawfulness with an absurdist style.

Vegetarian fine/lavish meals don't allow non-vegan vegetarian ingredients aka animal products, such as milk, or, questionably, honey aka insect jelly (unlike honey, insect jelly is pretty hard to farm without slaughtering inscets), or, even more questionably, eggs (which are borderline actual animals but still often considered vegetarian).

I guess it makes sense to rename the meal to vegan in order to save some typing and gain some precision. I'm not sure it actually makes sense to allow animal products; it will only add more controversy across various vegetarianism variants. I do wish for defense panthers on milk kibble in a vegetarian colony though (but megasloths work for me too).

On the screenshot Timur has scars on his left leg. Bandages are displayed on the left side of the pawn icon. Because the pawn on the icon is facing the viewer, the left side of the icon actually corresponds to Timur's right leg.

Literally unplayable! :-)
