I realize that the developers no longer actively use the "Ideas" forum as a utility for their game due to people being crappy and potentially filing stupid lawsuits. HOWEVER, I ALSO realize that it's quite probable for a dev or two to occasionally peruse the Ideas forum just to see what's up. Even though they can't officially take ideas from someone, the fact that someone's mentioned an idea doesn't mean that if it's implemented in the future it came directly from the player who suggested it - after Tynan posted what he did about not using this forum for that purpose anymore, said player wouldn't have any legal ground to stand on.
I enjoy playing the game as the developer intended it, and mods oftentimes add a facet to gameplay that alters that intention. So while my suggestions can certainly be used by modders to create mods, somewhere deep down I really do hope the developers might find something useful in what I say, because I really love what they do and simply hope that I can offer something new for them to chew on in the future. I like playing vanilla Rimworld - it's difficult, it's sometimes stupid, but modding the game to hell makes it feel... I dunno - it can quite easily become a cakewalk, and plus with my garbage computer it can easily become unplayable.
With all that being said, I want to reiterate that I understand that the devs don't use this forum for drawing ideas anymore - not officially - it's just my hope that some nugget of what I post here sparks an idea in them that makes the game better.![Smiley :)](https://ludeon.com/forums/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
Edit: This post will become my new repository for ideas! Everything new I think of will be posted here in an edit, so if you like what I think of make sure to check back from time to time. I realize that by making individual posts each time I have an idea it clutters the forum up a whole lot, so I do apologize, and I'll keep from doing that in the future!
SECOND EDIT: All of my old posts will be added here as well, to provide a centralized reading location.
