They could be a bit like chocolate in that regard. Also fits with the Firefly theme:

Hydroponics, the crematorium, and the advanced research bench (but not the basic bench) cannot be un/reinstalled like most production things can now.

The crematorium being fixed is fine. But hydroponics basins should really be movable

Pawns don't take off their coats when they come inside, either. 

Maybe they should. At least with heavy clothing. Automatic or manual dressers are possible. There are mods for it. And people wouldn't have to use them if they think it's a waste of time.

All tests ended poorly for my pawn, since wolf not even once was neutralized before getting to melee range.

The CR used to be able to kill a bear reliably. The rich explorer starting with was a huge deal

The parka thing is weird. Parkas always had their niche in arctic biomes where you truly needed the insulation. I never used them anywhere else. Now there is no real penalty to have a parka in just normal winter.

At least the glitterworld medicine renaming was quickly reverted

what happened to wool? Leather has become incredibly strong (especially heavy fur) while wool is almost as bad as cloth.

Agreed. Wool was a bit OP before (at least in very hot or cold biomes where all you needed was a wool jacket), but it was one of the few things that encouraged you to keep animals. Sure tone it down a bit, but not this far

WH40k has "Frontier Worlds" just like Firefly has "border planets"

So do lots of other sci-fi universes. It's the logical result of any setting based on colonization. The Honor Harrington universe has many levels of development. Core worlds, shell, protectorates, verge. Star Wars has similar concepts.

There is really nothing more ridiculous than W40K fanboys

Always funny when people think Warhammer is any way original and that everything else is ripped off from it 

Decreasing development of planets the further out you go is a very, very common science fiction theme. It opens the way for storytelling about lawless frontier worlds, exploitation by rich inner planets, and rebellions.

Yeah, small maps are pointless. There just isn't enough room to build anything interesting. And it feels constricting.

The issue with the largest maps is that walking times are too long. By the time you get anywhere far away the pawns will usually be tired

There are fully automatic pistols. They just aren't all that practical

Rename ultratech medicine -> glitterworld medicine

And the world is right again

Locking them out of bedrooms is one thing. That could be implemented as people locking their doors. Which would also keep out art watchers.

But a trader spot is easily abused to kill traders and steal their stuff. Either by weapons fire or some sort of heat trap. Lot of people do that already - especially on ice sheets. As a mod that's perfectly fine and I really like it (in fact a post by me inspired its creation), but putting it into vanilla isn't as simple

He made the change because "the medicine didn't necessarily come from a glitterworld."

That's taking things too literally though. It would be more interesting and complex world building if glitterworld medicine isn't restricted strictly to glitterworlds, but has such a great reputation for quality and/or advancement that most people associate it with only the most developed planets. Or that while it traditionally was only available there, it has since spread out a bit as other planets caught up in development.

At least a wall light should be included

Glitterworld medicine still works as a colloquial name for advanced tech even if it's not literally from a glitterworld. Plenty such examples in real life
