I rlly like such games like Dwarf fortress rimworld prison architect and others but one thing bugs me rlly badly.
The fact i will never leave my small place or i cant go out of the edge of the map.
yeah i know about the ship you could build to finish the game even tough i dont rlly like that idea, i mean i want to explore more of the world like send some settlers out of the map building a outpost meeting other camps and so on, while i still can switch back to my base to look whats happening there. ( i know its pretty alpha and there will be nothing like this in a loong time or maybe never) but are there any plans to move out of the boarders of the map making a second camp or exploring the world a bit? I always feelt prisoned in Dwarf fortress at some point my base get unbeatable no matter whats attacking me or social problems also not big of an issue and the game was actually getting bit boring so i had to start over.

I looked for it and im sure some people suggestet this a long time ago but i could not find a post like that so just in case, id like to mention there are way to less things to make your people happy. I got a nice comfort Base good energy Carpet all over no dirt (all clean) and big sleeping places for evry singel settler.
But still they dont rlly  like it, just 2 or 3 like it and give me +5 in happines thats waaaaay to less! a dead body after defending your base gives you around -16 for 4x times seeing a dead body which is natural after a fight. i also made the paste machine giving me -8 making the pleasent enviroment pretty damn useless. i have nice and confort base still i hold them there with fear?! i actually would be better of taking out all light and beating up my prisoners which i dont rlly want to do.

what i want:
Happines Increase:

1.Light simple when darkness makes fear, light should make them a bit happy

2. pleasent enviroment shold give me bit more like +10 at least (after planting a big bunch of plants it becomes a beautifull enviroment but still i cant plant them evry where i need some space so most of the time while they are at the farm or else they think it looks bad)

3. Big personal rooms should give me a bonus i gave thema bed, table a chair a lamp and some plants and space to walk around 4x5 big rooms.

4.paste dispenser shold not make them unhappy atleast not that strong or give me a good alternative to make better food.

my english is not perfect pls consider this iv somethings seems to be odd.

(About me)
First off hi im Bainin im 21 years old and from switzerland so my english is not perfect. So in case you people cant understand me pls tell me :-)
I played Dwarf Fortess like 200 - 400 hours and i love games like this so i have alot of ideas and suggestions to make the game better.
I know alot of suggestions may cant be implementet or it takes a long time. Im happy iv the dev read them at least.
I had no time to read other suggestions or patch note i go later to that.

Sugestions:

Ressource: Change Metal icon into normal Ressource icon and make Metal a recours of high value adding some trees (maybe can be planted by the players) as a medium value ressource (reproduceable) and Stone/animal hides (maybe somthing else) very low Value ones.

Trees: as mentioned it would be nice iv there where a sparse amount of trees you can harvest, maybe be able to buy seed from Trader or Research to plant them ur self.

Windmill: Energy source weaker then Solar but works day and night (have to be outside)


Robots: you could build robots for single easy tasks like cleaning (robots work only indoor cant move on sand/dirt) the robots have to use Energie in order to reload they could go to a player build platform (where the bot wait for use and recharge)  iv energy runs out before they reach the platform they will stay still and wont move so players have to haul them to recharge spot. The robots also could go crazy making evrything dirty or atack people.
Robot idea list: Cleaning bot, repair bot, haul bot.

Research:
Robot technology (high end/end game) you could need this research in order to research diffrent robots (or buy recepie of traders which would be rare and/or also have to be studied)
