General Discussion / What to do about hives?
November 05, 2017, 10:37:24 AM
I have an issue in my current game (Alpha 18 unstable) where a hive spawned in my mines, and is a bit close to my base for comfort.

How am I supposed to kill these things? They run way faster than my colonists do, and are very tough to kill.

I don't want to leave them, as they'll only get to be a bigger pain and could become an actual threat, but I think I'll at least need a sacrifice (some poor soul to come along) as anyone I send out to bait them gets mauled  as I simply can't outrun them. I'll probably need rockets or something, because guns do bupkis (they have a rather high sharp resistance). So I may need to wait on this, but I'm not sure whether I can or should.

I don't build into mountains, and as such haven't dealt with these stupid monstrosities in a long time. I get they're meant to make it so mountain bases are balanced, but these bugs are the most dangerous thing for me.

The only positive is that I have deep drills and veins scouted out, so I don't really need that mine anymore, but I'm a bit worried they'll eventually grow too big, or that something / someone might agro an army of super-bugs.

Off-Topic / My Time at Portia
October 02, 2017, 11:57:08 PM
Anybody else play the demo of this?

It's sort of like Stardew Valley in a sense, but focused on crafting and dungeon crawling & exploration rather than farming.

Currently it's on Kickstarter (until October 11th), but there's a demo available on Steam, and it's actually quite fun IMO.

I decided to back it myself, and I'm really hoping this gets funded, as it looks promising.

This is Phil, he's found a cool new way to watch television  8)

Anyway, since I can't figure out attachments, he watches TV facing away from the screen, sitting on the warg fur couch backwards.

Edit : The Image is below the post, good enough for now :p
