More precise would be enough for me, actually.

If you make the explosion large enough you do not have to be precise  8)

I had a group of raiders land and decide to besiege my base. They ran around a mountain and decided to set up in a roofed cyrptosleep casket building. I set a couple colonists to mortar them, and the first shell popped one of the caskets, and to my surprise they all opened. Huge firefight broke out and the raiders broke. Ended up picking off the stragglers manually, was hilarious and a lot of fun to watch.

Did the same thing only manually. Some besigers put up camp in front of a building containing about 4 caskets, so I snuck one of my guys around the backside, opened one up and hightailed out of there. Luck would have it that the guys in the caskets were armed to the teeth so I ended up with a lot of sweet gear after the fight.

Quote from: Ye olde Change log!Pawns will now do a local prioritized search for food before switching to global prioritized search. So they�ll eat a bad meal in the base before crossing the map to get a tasty one.

What's the extent of the localized search? Like how far will it search in the cells around it before a pawn will go get something delicious?

Currently 24 regions, I think.

Does it just search for what is closest as the crow flies or does it consider how far it has to path to get to the food?

mostly it is non-essential organs like kidneys and loungs cause colonists that get other damages usually just dies too fast

Not really sure if this is already in the game, and not that I am asking for it to become harder, but it would make a lot of sense if solar panels produced less electricity during winter. The reason winter comes about is due to the planet being at the far end of its epileptic orbit and therefore the planet receives less power from its sun. Presuming a start in spring this would also promote people to move away from solar panels and into geothermal even faster, which might make it logical to make the effect tied to higher difficulties
