General Discussion / Dear Colonists...
October 28, 2017, 12:55:22 PM
Ever wanted to send a note to your colonists? Something like this:

Dear Jones,
You will notice that you now have a bionic eye to replace the one that was scarred in the Boomalope Incident of 5502. You will also notice that your left eye is now in your right eye socket, and your nose has been replaced by an artificial duplicate. Please disregard these changes. Our doctors are still learning.
--Management

Dear Bren,
We are aware of your preference for... exotic food. We are attempting to indulge you with your own special butcher's shop and dining room. We request that you use these facilities, so that nobody has to see you eating the remains of their beloved grandmother, who at 73 years old was still spry enough to wield an incendiary launcher and burn an ear off our best trader. The fact that you are now in the infirmary with a broken jaw, a missing right thumb, and a newly-minted Rival, is your own fault.

When you build a space ship and send a colonist into space, can you play on with the rest of them?

General Discussion / TIL: Brain damage
October 26, 2017, 10:12:43 AM
One of my colonists got shot in the head, and ended up with brain damage at 2/10. This meant he was permanently unconscious. I was content to let him chill in a hospital bed until I could research a brain stimulator (modded Rimworld, obviously) and get him up and cleaning the colony.

Lo and behold, he has been in bed for 2 years, 1 quadrum, and suddenly I get a message that he's no longer incapable of walking. I check his brain--he's at 3/10 and conscious.

Brain injury recovery seems to be possible.... but extremely slow.

It may not apply to anything but severe brain injuries. My other head-injury victim, who got shot at the same time, got her brain knocked down to 6/10, and is still at 6/10. Or maybe it's just because she hasn't been lying in a Steel hospital bed (good) for two years.
