Actually i dont see any need for offspring in RM. Why do  i want to care for babies for like 15 years before they become of age and actually be useful? Its better to capture grown ups and persuade them to join the colony. :)
If you ask me, the 2 features which can greatly enhance the game are water as a resource and vehicles (small ones, simple and complex)
IMO that's stupid. Its easy to implement and realistic, needed for a game like this. Right now you can survive in a desert without any water,it takes away from the game.

Water is one thing Tynan has stated will not become a resource, sorry. If he changes his mind in the future it would be up to him. I personally would love to see fishing added to the game for a food source! Would be awesome and mods exist for that. As for vehicles, he HAS made hints of the possibility of them coming in a major release or two here (read the comments from here down to his and interpret as you will) though nothing that would say a definite coming soon so don't hold your breath. There ARE mods for the vehicles, backpacks, carts, and such though I am not sure if they are updated for A14.x yet. Check the Released forum.

Remember when I said : "The pressure from anti-LGBT people cause more problems than the existence of atypical persons." ?
I'm not surprised they are more likely to kill themselves when there's more morons telling them "You are not natural, go kill yourself !".

Aside, that's like arguing "women can't drive" using a chart about the "number of women driver in Saudi Arabia" (so you know : Saudi law forbid women to drive, I hope you see the point).
A great number of country still apply retarded laws forcing LGBT person (or other minority) to live miserably for no valid reason. (for all we hear about the USA being the land of Freedom it's pretty bad at this)

So your link is basically pushing the point that we should accommodate LGBT people better in our society, legalize same-sex marriage, recognize gender switch, fight against any form of gender discrimination ...etc
I've decided to change my point of view on Trans. Sure, be a 'man' or 'woman'. Just don't expect a single dime to come out of my pocket to make accommodation- your fantasy, your money. Nor expect me to allow you to use the bathroom of the opposite sex- if you where born with a penis, you go to the men's, and vise versa. Other than that, go ahead and pursue your delusion.

To recenter the debate :

Quote from: Pactrick Willis on June 22, 2016, 10:04:31 PM
I'm saying that naturally, you are male and female. I feel we are treating a mental issue wrong, its like allowing little children to thrown temper tantrums instead of teaching them not to.
QuoteI never said that- simply that sometimes their treatment methods can be wrong, especially in a new(ish) disorder.

I see two flaws :
1) You assume that Nature adhere to your personal vision of it. But people modifying themselves to be whatever they want is part of nature and so, natural. It's been a while since Homo Sapiens Sapiens lived as tribes with no concept of "family" or "gendered bathroom", but the use of fire, the invention of tools, clothes, and the abandon of tribes-based lifestyle was is is still all Natural.
2) I won't disagree that transgendering is a distinct mental state, but your claim that it is a "disorder" (in what I assume the pejorative way) is arbitrary.

Wikipedia def :
""A mental disorder (also called a mental illness,[1] psychiatric disorder, or psychological disorder) is a diagnosis, most often by a psychiatrist, of a behavioral or mental pattern that may cause suffering or a poor ability to function in life""

Transgender don't fit this definition anymore than the common person. Many live as healthily than any other persons or god-fearing great ape.
At least, when they aren't being persecuted by people with behavioral or mental pattern that make them incapable of accepting change, cause suffering to them and other, and lead them to be unadapted to life in a socially and technologically evolved society.

In short,
The pressure from anti-LGBT people cause more problems than the existence of atypical persons.

Oh right, so you're the type of person who thinks the medical community is simply wrong because 500 years ago some things were made wrong? Okay, do you know it better than most doctors then? You do realize that leeches can be therapeutical still, right?

Are you also one of those people who don't trust the scientific community of biologists about the theory of Evolution? Or the scientific community of physics about the Big Bang? I mean, 1000 years ago we thought the earth was flat, so do we simply dismiss all the geography teachers then?

If you were to ask the medical community as to what the best and preferred treatment was, would you accept their response? Would you accept it when a medical professional told you that gender reassignment is the best treatment for it?

I would, because I trust the community of medical professional, it's the only rational thing to do. So, would you?
This same 'medical professionals' recommended blood letting and leeches for a cold 500 years ago; Sometimes they are off.

My 2 cents.

Men are men. Women are women. It does not matter what you 'think' you are, if you have a penis, you are male. You use the Mens bathroom even if you 'identify' (Delusion) as something else.

QuoteBy your logic people who have penis/vagina transplant do in fact change gender and stop having "delusion problem".

And if you insist on "what it was first", then causally speaking, everybody was first "female" before changing to male due to DNA.
So, since our very growth include a change from physically female to male. Then by this logic we are all female with 50% of delusion.

By your logic, then, everyone was really carbon before anything. Null and void.

I'm saying that naturally, you are male and female. I feel we are treating a mental issue wrong, its like allowing little children to thrown temper tantrums instead of teaching them not to.

Do you want a Z-levels mod with that?

sorry, not sorry

the bikes and trucks are useful and add value to the game. combat is fun and can be more fun when you're on the offensive because you can't rely on kill boxes and actually have to fight in tactical battles. the tanks and robots might be too much I'll give you that but it's just an idea
I'm just playing on how common this Idea is, and how it is a bitch to code in.

Any Idea on a ETA for the next update?

Oh, Btw, I'm a musician and a composer, and if you want some custom music in your mod, I'd be more than willing to help. I may not be able to do it full time, but I can definitely do some songs.

Your wish has been granted! All mosquito-born diseases are now eradicated! All thanks to you. No, seriously. You are harbouring them all so others cannot catch them. Your life expectancy is... oh look, 1 second. Bye!

I wish for a nuclear bomb capable of destroying ISIS.
You get it- However, SJW's cry about using it for so long that ISIS gets a hold of it by themselves and nukes you.

I wish my writers block was nonexistent.

   Your wish has been granted,yet you didn't specify what Dungeon master . The minigame "Dungeon Master" from sc2 becomes so popular, that the author releases more and more updates, balancing and balancing the heroes, until all the imba heroes that made it fun start sucking. The game becomes like Squadron defence: popular yet terrible.

I wish there were more Donald Trump related videos.
Your wish is granted, but that is because he is elected-! He starts bombarding you with propaganda and sets up a secret police. They take you, and your family, away to a camp where you will die for illegally using the internet in the United Facist States of All of america. 

I want to be able to play the Gr.10 piano book.
