Stories / Re: Grass seed Anyone else ever see them.

I discovered the existence of seeds when one flew right in front of something I was trying to click on.

That depends on the type of beer you're drinking.
The dirty water they have in the USA, sure, drink it ice cold.

A little off topic but... Do tamed animals still go mad sometimes in A14?
#169
I didn't think about removing the master.
My point was I would avoid obedience, so the animal will mind its own businness.

Solution 2 doesn't make sense ANYMORE.
I'll explain.
Do you know why wolves keep away from humans?
It's because we hunted them, for centuries.
Not attacking humans has been a positive evolutionary behaviour for wolves. Non attacking humans equals not being hunted.
On a rimworld human are scarce, they cannot form huge hunting party to kill predators (and this assumes there ARE humans on the planet to begin with).

You can get around this by only having one tile that leads to the door. That way animals can only attack it one at a time, and repairing it should be no problem.

The construction should be like this one D: Door W: Wall

All you need then is an insanity lance. If you sent the firing pawn into berserk, the others will shoot inside the "fortress" to stop them. Likely damaging the mortar. And if one of them has grenades...

I would gladly train them only to haul. Not even rescue.

This depends on the scenario.
For my fallen colonists, it's usually Falltown, Dropville or Crashland.

Animals have a chanche to trigger traps based on their model's "girth" if that makes sense.
Squirrels almost don't trigger them, elephants will almost surely trigger them.

The point right now, is that you are making clothes from animal HIDE, not LEATHER.
Leather require processing.
And while it's true, leather are different one another, they can be made into a single item.

If they die in your home area they start as unforbidden.

Another situation.
You have insect jelly that you would like to use to cook meals. "Would like" because the colonists ignore the meals already cooked and go for the jelly.

And what stops you for using the siege tactic against them?
I guess that it would make the incendiary mortar useful...

I've had more power in a Zzzt event and the most it does is make one wire explode in big fire. It really isn't anything serious. All you really need to do is remove a few roofs or punch a hole to equalize temperature so it doesn't cook your colonists.

The damage of the explosion is linked to the energy. I had an unlucky visitor to pass right where the cable exploded.
With 6 battery he died. I guess with 40 he would have disapeared.
