It would be great to have another kind of biome: "extreme".

I'm not talking about something like the extreme desert, but a biome that swings wildly annually: it would have the summer of deserts and the winter of tundras. It also allows a more diverse flora and fauna than the existing biomes, providing a good challenge as well as highly varied gameplay.

Combat continues to be a chore in RW. It's probably the most clicktastic aspect of RW, and could benefit a lot from a little interface tweaking. 2 common additions would go a long way:

1. Allowing attack order with multiple pawns selected.

2. Add an "attack-move" order: move the pawn toward the selected point but start attacking as soon as an enemy is in range.

Hope to see them implemented!

This may be 1 or 2 connected bugs. I have not tried to reproduce the bug, but the rough sequence is as follow:

1. Build a cryptosleep casket.
2. Capture an enemy.
3. Reduce the number of enemy beds, forcing your pawn to move the enemy into the crypto casket.

The above is "bug 1" -- seems like an odd behaviour to move an enemy into the casket without explicit order. But the above further seems to trigger the following:

4. With the enemy in the casket, try to trade (either with a visitor or via Comms).
5. Nothing would happen -- if the devmode is on an error message will pop up. (Unfortunately I did not record the message. But it said something about something not saved...)

Happened with 2 of my pawns:

1. A pawn loses both of her hands/arms.
2. I order the pawn to capture a downed enemy.
3. The pawn moves to the enemy then gets stuck.
4. Her status shows "capturing area". Meanwhile, she ignores any other order I give (even as a draftee), and no one else can interact with the downed enemy.

The fix I used:
I edited the savefile, deleted the content of the <jobs> section of the affected pawn. Reload.
