Not sure if this counts as cheap but clothing dyes.
That way you could assign some kind of uniform color.

Stories / The story of Peggy
June 06, 2017, 03:17:16 AM
This is the story of Peggy, the double peg-legged veteran.
-This story is not 100% accurate as to what happened to Peggy, it is a work of fiction inspired by his tale-
At the age of 20 Peggy was conscripted into the military. His job was a gunner on the RSS Floriana, a mighty space vessel complete with over 40 guns.
It was Peggy's first battle against the Violet Husk, he took station at his cannon. When the order came Peggy lined up a shot, he fired. As the shell tore through the enemy ship Peggy watched in horror, as dozens of crew flew out the tear in the hull, the gunner's deck depressurizing. With shaky legs Peggy took a step back, what had he done? Amidst the shrapnel filled bodies Peggy watched, as an enemy shell made it's way through the battlefield and into the side of the Floriana. In an instant Peggy was thrown back, his ears ringing and his vision blurred. The blast doors closed, hiding the devastating battle from Peggy's eyes. Peggy lay there, winded, as the battle medics entered the room. He expected them to pass him by but they gave him a worried look. Peggy stared down at what used to be his legs, they were now a crippled mess. Pieces of jagged shrapnel stuck out of his calves, and a chunk of his shin was missing. As the medics pulled him onto a stretcher, Peggy's vision went black.
Peggy awoke to the sound of an alarm, he looked around and saw he was in an escape pod. Trying to stand Peggy realized that he couldn't feel his feet, he was instead greeted with two oak stumps starting from below his knees. As Peggy got his bearings he relived his recent experience, his heart started beating fast, his breathing intensified. Calming himself Peggy swore an oath, that he would never hurt a living soul again.
Peggy now lives out a peaceful life as a rice-farmer for the town of Uruk. He is constantly harassed and can do nothing to better his situation. Peggy once saw his new legs as a curse, but after working many seasons in the harsh rice-fields of Uruk, Peggy now sees his stumps as a blessing, for he will never get trench-foot.

General Discussion / Re: Introduce yourself!

-What introduced me?
I saw some of the game-play on YouTube when the game was in alpha 15 or 14. I picked copy of the game up when it was in alpha 16. The game looked quite interesting, the freedom play-style and overall quirkiness enticed me to buy.
As a kid I played the sims and mine-craft, so I enjoy being able to build and design intricately, but I also have an interest in drama. This game ties those two together perfectly.
-Favorite other game?
Skyrim, Definitely. Although very different from Rimworld, Skyrim has an intense backstory that I absolutely love.
-Embarrassing gaming story?
hmm... can't think of any really for me tbh. I do however remember a friend playing through COD-WAW on veteran difficulty, he got to the end of a mission and died. His re-spawn was on top a tower where he was getting constantly hit by a mortar. He had to restart the mission over and got pretty mad.
Breakfast?
I come from New Zealand so... marmite on toast FTW!

I have some young animals in my colony, so sometimes they get picked off by predators.
But this one day was different, I had a two day old boar cub who was absolutely wasted on alcohol. So this arctic fox wandering around thought the boar cub would be easy pickings. The fox easily rips two of the boars legs off while only receiving a scratch in return, but then the boar got mad. The boar cub put up a fight and actually downed the fox in a drunken rage. Mind-blowing, see the screenshot below.
