What about having a "Rotten Only" option for stockpiles and cremation?
I have things set up to butcher and cremate dead raiders but I often see my colonists cremating perfectly good corpses before doing the rotting ones.
Same with animals, if I set up a bill to cremate animal corpses so I can get rid of the skeletons around the map my people go and fry the good animals :/

So the other day I had a siege raid, fairly bog standard group. Few pistols, few charge rifles, one or two melee attackers, and a single sniper.
As per the norm I send my best hunter out (Level 20 Shooting, Careful Shooter Trait, 2 Bionic Eyes, 2 Bionic Arms and a Superior Sniper Rifle) - This guy was a monster.
Anyhow I force target their sniper so he could pick the rest off without any returned fire afterwards. He starts shooting, *Bang* *Bang* and the enemy sniper drops he gun...
Confused I check his status and my guy had shot both of his arms off XD
It was beautiful, I ended up just letting that guy live, I'd ruined his day enough

I think the best way would be to provide a save file of a world that has just been started, that way everyone uses the same starting colonists. You would also have to restrict it to vanilla and a specific story teller, probably Cassandra or Phoebe as Randy is far too varied to be a fair contest. He could throw you a crud load of resources or kill you off in the first week.

Development mode should also be banned and rather than a specific real world time, restrict it to a specific in game time like 6months or 1 year as not everyone has the same amount of free time and would be put at a disadvantage simply due to external priorities. And should people run over that time the Wealth at the end of the allotted time is their score.

Wealth graph screenshots would need to be provided and possibly a save file to prove that the wealth log file matches that of the one provided.

Dunno if this has been suggested already but "Tamed Animal Starvation" like we already have with colonists.
I have had far too many animals die of starvation or have miscarriages because i wasnt paying attention to my hay stockpile 24/7

sorry about this man, but how did you get them to breed? I'm trying with a buck and an ewe but its not working very well. Is it a random things the animals have to do or can i speed up the process?
As far as i can see, its just about keeping them in a relatively enclosed space and waiting.
My situation has only "worsened" as now i have around 25 pigs running around :/

Colony Name: Breinigsville

How your colony ended: Sappers
Description: Large amounts of resources are still available but the food will not last long to the local pigs. A large firefight without time to activate the turrets resulted in severe injuries to all the colonists who made it into the catacombs to enter the cryptosleep caskets which are heavily defended. Providing you can get them medical treatment they will be valuable assets.

Two words:
Psycho
Boomalopes

Single most terrifying experience in this colony because all it takes is one visitor to injure a single Boomalope and the whole front half of my colony goes up in smoke

It's amazing how quickly it can get out of hand







I started with one Sow and 2 Pigs....That was around 7 ingame months ago

Holy sweet Jesus mate, you got some talent for writing there.
That is the most interesting and saddening take on the failed recruitment I have ever heard.
Well done.

What the sweet *&$% is that?! Sure, 2-4 of them I can handle no problem, but this.....

Myself, with mechaniods my rule is to wish them away with the developers tools, then have my colonists harvest a prisoners heart in my Void shrine and pretend that the Void Gods did it.

EDIT - I wasn't joking  :P


Thanks to Tiger's sacrifice, the Void Gods saw fit to aid my colony by making a Can-o-Mechs spontaneously explode all by itself.

Good lord, that is so messed up it isn't funny XD

I've never stuck around on a biome with Iguanas, but Squirrels and rabbits? Vicious!
Tried keeping steve as a pet once he calmed down?

Unfortunately Steve got hit by a stray bullet and bled out long before I could pen him up. I did save his body and bury it at a Memorial to him :3

Alright folks, one of my more "successful" colonies that ended in a blazing glory

Colony Name: Ludeon in Ruins
RimWorld Version: Alpha 11 [0.11.877]
Screenshots: http://imgur.com/a/xev9g
How your colony ended: Fire, so much fire.
Description: Most resources and food were lost in the fire along with the hydroponics wing. There was one cryptosleep pod which the colonies Leader and best medic, Ryan, managed to climb into before the pirates reached him. A small siege base is located nearby with some food but a Mechanoid pack is guarding the exit to the base, be careful.
A single wanderer is on his way to kickstart the colony.
