If enough research is done, your colonists will discover that they are actually trapped in a computer simulation where a secret organization is watching over them and studying their every moves

The good idea part: Add computers and computer hacking into the game

The bad idea part: Colonists spend the entire day looking at cat pictures on said computers and nothing ever gets done

Necromancers like in DF whom can ressurect fallen raiders and often come with their own zombie armies.

I arrived at an item stash to find it guarded by turrets.

I selected the turret, clicked "Claim" and it instantly stopped firing on my people and opened fire on the other unclaimed turrets.

How does fixing scars work?

...Then summer and winter movement times should be the same in places with different summer and winter movement times.

The temperate forest I'm based in has an average winter temperature of 51°, and I've never seen snow. However, the surrounding forest terrain, in which winter temperatures range between 47° and 53°, has a summer movement time of 1.7 hours...

...And a "winter movement time" of a whopping 9.7 hours. This is to account for the "snow" that can't physically happen in that terrain's climate.

TL;DR: Terrain travel times should be based on temperature, not season

Chemical fascination cooks will occasionally make a batch of "special" meals without the player's input or knowledge.

This is legitimately a great idea

Vegetable Garden needs a brownie recipe

Chocolate + Flour + Smokeleaf = "Special" brownie

Very glad to see that this is being worked on again, I would love to participate with it

I haven't been able to find it on the Steam workshop for quite a while, and the last download I was able to find for it is no longer A17 compatible. Does anybody know what happened to the mod or if it even exists anymore?

Change the game's name to Timworld and make every character's name Tim

Necrophile trait, loves wearing deadmans apparel (not what you thought at first!!!!)

Then add a "Real necrophile" trait, which contains exactly what you thought at first

Rename the game to "The Rims"

Make sure to make all of the really cool/interesting content an expansion pack, and price them each at $40.

First it needs to be made into a mobile game with tons of micro transactions

Rename the game to "The Rims"
