Looking great, I like it!

If you're struggling with english spelling, google spellcheckers. There are loads of them, that are free and can help you a lot!

Steel is vital.  You need to make sure you have 170 or 160 steel saved up for either a Smelter or a Comm Unit + Trade Beacon.  These are the only ways you can ever get more Steel.  If you want to live life dangerously, you could build a Machining Table (150 Steel) and plan to get your Steel from Mechanoids, but they don't usually come until the second year.

If you don't have a plan for how to get more Steel, you will perish.
You might perish anyways, but lack of steel ensures it.

I wish you luck on your attempt, and remember: Never fight a battle without cover.

Thanks for the tips! Yes, I might very well be f'd, I only got 1 steel, and I wont get 169 more steel from shrinking my base and deconstructing the battery. But I can attempt to raid/loot a caravan, can't I?

I checked this thread out multiple times before, but finally, two days ago I picked the challenge up. I died a couple of times, not realizing how fast the hypothermia really downs you.

But after few tries, I've managed to set up a decent shelter, built with wood and steel. I got a research bench, butchering table, bed, heater, battery (realized later I did not need it), and a solar generator.
I'm running out of wood, but managed to kill two polar bears and two raiders, without any injuries to Cross. I got food to last for a couple weeks, but I really need electric smelter...

[What the circumstances were.]

What the circumstances were.
Just started a fresh A18 save without mods enabled.
What happened.
All 5 events popped up at the same time.
What you expected to happen.
Not this atleast
Steps we can follow to make the bug appear on our machine.
No idea, I did not do anything out of usual.

Logfile and savegame in the save zip: https://drive.google.com/file/d/18ZDQkHA2_pjMg7Xju0ZlP7QtITmHjJzU/view?usp=sharing

EDIT 1 = If you load up the savegame, you'll encounter a few more events almost immediately after the first five. Something is broken.

I plan to do some benchmark for Rimworld on my new PC. Probably with the website http://www.userbenchmark.com/PCGame/FPS-Estimates-RimWorld/3808/0.0.0.0.0  And maybe even eventually post a video comparison of the performance of Rimworld showing the difference of my current PC VS my New PC. But I am going to need to accurately show the FPS. Does Rimworld have a built in way to view FPS or do I need a 3rd party program like Fraps etc? 

If you got Steam-version of Rimworld, Steam has a FPS-meter you can enable at Steam itself: "Settings - In Game - FPS-counter".

Back to the cleaning problem, nothing I tried worked with the cleaning thing. I simply removed the cleaning mod, I'm better off that way

Could you send me your saved game in a PM? (The one where the cleaning mod does not work). Include your ModsConfig.xml too!

Aww... I just removed the file a moment ago, due to the colony falling..

If you do start another game using the mod, please send me the saved game when cleaning stops working.

If anyone else has such a save please send it to me

Have you been following the prementioned mod's own thread? I guess they even figured out the cause there.

Check your no-roof areas first.

Try this: exit to main menu. Open mods menu. Move the cleaning mod to the last spot in the list. Close the mods menu. Close the game. Reopen it. Load your saved game and see if cleaning works.

Nope, does not help. I also tried removing the mod completely from the list, but it either does not allow me to load the game, or the cleaning still does not work.

Try doing a full reset, i.e. deleting all the mods and extracting this pack, then copying modsconfig.xml in %appdata%\...\Config. Keep the saved game as it should be compatible. If it still doesn't work, create a new world, a new colony, and test it (designate a very large cleaning area, go to manual priorities, put Cleaning at the highest[1], and see what happens with those colonists). If it still does not work, redo the steps but put the cleaning mod at the bottom of the list.

Just lost my colony, I'll do something else for a while. I'll return to the issue, when I start up a new colony.

Alright, I'm having a weird problem since the modpack update. My colonist can't seem to make any progress with cleaning blood, rock rubble etc. They just clean one spot for eternity, and never finish up with it. Any ideas where the problem might be?

It's been reported a few times before but i cannot reproduce it no matter what I do. There is a paragraph about this in the KnownIssues section in the first post too. Those are the only ideas that come to mind. The closest i've come is to not have the cleaning area buttons show in the Orders tab, but colonists did not have any issues with cleaning.

Damn... My colony looks like a nun monastery during PMS, without tampons. Mixed with a puke here and there, and it's really eating up my colonists mood.

[UnReal World]

Alright, you guys got me to write my first post on the forums, just to give a shoutout to UnReal World

Copied from the game's homepage (http://www.unrealworld.fi/)
"UnReal World, or UrW, is a unique graphical roguelike RPG taking place in the Far North long, long ago. It brings you a realistic game world rich with historical atmosphere in which northern folklore, knowledge and way of life play an important part. The atmosphere and game features are highly original and compelling. The world of the game is based on the ancient Finland in the late Iron Age.
Throughout the years, UnReal World has been praised for its depth, realism, atmosphere and immersion.
"

On my experience, the game offers a lot of gameplay, awesome and unique environment and lots of fun! The game includes some real-world artwork, including character portraits with real people, that definately improves the immersion of the game. I should probably give it a shot once again, when I get semi-bored to RimWorld (not going to happen too soon though)

I can't but promote this game, it seriously deserves a lot more attention! Oh, did I mention that it has been developed since 1992?

And a pic from the game, here ya' go!
