I took the song, "Home on the Range" and made a rimworld version. Cheers!

Oh give me a home where the muffalo roam,
Where the deer and the wild boar play,
Where seldom is heard an FTL word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day.
Home, home on the rim,
Where there’s plenty of boomrats and limbs,
Where seldom is heard an FTL word,
Because Einstein was right all along.
Where the air is so pure, and the cobras so free,
The rifles ringing through the night,
That I would not give, my home on the rim,
For all of the glitterworlds bright.
The tribals were pressed from this part of the west,
Their likely no more to return,
To the camps of the pirates, where seldom if ever,
Their flickering campfires burn.
How often at night when the heavens are bright,
With the light from the landing drop pods,
Have I stood there amazed and asked as I gazed,
If their greed exceeds that of ours.
Oh, I love these wild flowers in this dear land of ours,
The snipers I love to hear cry,
And I love the green plants, and all of the boomrats,
That graze on the rimworlds so far.
Oh give me a land where the pirate brigands,
Attack us with mortars all night;
Where the horrible AI yells at us all the time,
Driving all the squirrels so mad,
I would not give, my home on the rim,
Where the deer and the wild boars play;
Where seldom is heard an FTL word,
Because Einstein was right all along.

Let me know what you think!

NOTE: Yes I am aware that there is a thread in the suggestions forum for A9/A10 stuff. However, that thread seems like more of a general suggestion thread, where this one is meant as a "How should XY&Z work", and just to gather community input on what should be added next.

With A9 coming soon (Tynan has called for testers, so it should be soon), what are you looking forward to from the kickstarter page in A10? Heres a link to my edited version of the planned things on the kickstarter page http://imgur.com/VggArJn . It seems to me like the other archaeology stuff and more traits would be pretty simple to add, if not already added (I'm not sure if making traits have an effect now was the end of Tynan's plans, might have been.). With those gone it seems to me we could get either relationships next, or void gods next, with the storytelling getting finished up (Or it might already be, IDK, I'm not a tester). Which one do you want? (I'm personally hoping for relationships )

When I saw the video for this, I immediately thought of exploring a Rimworld colony, using a holo lens. I know the technology is still a very, very long ways off, but this has some serious potential! Imagine walking around your living room, watching your colony in action! Or looking at the aftermath of a raid!

Discuss below!

A new bill for a cook stove, "Cook X meals today" Your Chef(s) will cook say, 10 meals on that cook stove that day, then go do whatever else is on their priority list.

FYI: I think this would be either very easy or very hard to code, so don't hate me for that if it's very hard .

I searched, and found no data on how percentages of each gender that plays rimworld. So I made a poll. If there is one somewhere, please let me know!
