0-10 days in. i never have a problem with them.

other than the fact that i cant tell them to get out of my house, making it filthy with their animal dirt

yeah, it's important to make sure that healroot gets done :S

i always live purely off of hunting the first winter and then move to indoor farming by the second, boreal is my favorite, not too hard but can really give you a kick every once and awhile

start in boreal forest and begin to set up a small mountain encampment, just finished installing 6 batteries and 8 solar panels for starting power, "zzt" oh great, the solar panels are on fire and only 2 of my 4 colonists can fight it. colonists fail at stopping fire, all but 2 panels burn to the ground. pyromaniac colonist sees encroaching flames and decides that he wants to have fun too, "mental break: fire starting spree". starts small forest fire, oh man it's gonna burn down my camp and everything else, "rat self tamed" oh thank god, didn't know what i was gonna do there for a second... and then it begins to rain.

sure i wasted tons of steel and components, but i needed to dig out some areas anyways...

still in progress

The original model kind of grew on me.

I'm grateful Tynaan changed the model. The old one looked like a placeholder to me and the distinction between squirrels and boomrats is much easier now

i agree, they kind of looked like ants before

how i lost my best colony, sadly i wasn't stocked up on automatic weapons and they don't bunch together that much anymore, the turrets didn't help at all...33 boomrats...when they get in close it's basically over considering the fact that they explode.

New perma-death colony. Made a kicking base and was in the middle of installing a freezer. fended off multiple raider attacks and started to stockpile weapons. went out to hunt deer, killed one and my shotgunner opened fire on another. the deer weren't nice deer and they slaughtered my rifleman and shotgunner and attacked the base. funny part is that since the freezer was under construction, there was a hole for them to get through. my base is now an empty shell and deer bedding ground.
