The official answers to both of these from Tynan:

1) Maybe
2) Maybe

They're not great answers. It's likely Tynan is going to focus on the original planned modules more and then maybe consider these later. I think multiplayer could be a likely feature some time in the far future since it's not insanely difficult to implement, but it does require a lot of work on its own.

I love this forum.

Most people don't get a lot done between Christmas and the New Year.

Click on it and select 'Cancel'. It'll give you your materials back.

I was pretty blown away when I found this out.

Fire is a little silly in terms of heating, it needs a temperature cap too.

As for heaters, you can just say they weren't designed for that. Also, they're flammable.

Yeah, it just takes time to get to those years. There's no special time-warping mechanics beyond the fast-forward button

Sorry, corrected that. Not sure what happened, but account creation is totally there now.


Thanks for pointing that out.

A "rocks fall, you die" event doesn't sound very fun. It also sounds more like a minor inconvenience than anything

Bravo! This makes me curious as to whether cold can be used to create an icebox.

Kind of: http://youtu.be/sn1oyE8DbIU (note that sub-absolute zero temperatures were fixed)

[Edit:]

Yeah, account creation is currently disabled until I find a better way to stop spam accounts from logging in. I was hoping to wait until after Xmas to get on that, but I guess if there's a demand I'll get working on it now.

Edit:

Account registration is open again now. You'll have to answer captchas for the first 15 edits (sorry!), but you're captcha-free after that point.
(also of course you're free to edit/update/add new pages to the wiki, it's all community done)

You're only safe in places where there's "Overhead Mountain". Thick/thin roofs are not enough to stop the mortars.

Wow, that's some creative base design. I'm pretty damn impressed.

This thread inspired me: https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=8549.0

Glass roofs would keep temperature in, keep the elements out, and let sunlight in obviously. It'd be a nice incentive to grow stuff outside and a cool alternative to having to have sunlamps inside indoor growing areas that are built on soil.

This would probably require removing auto-roofing and letting us build our own roofs.

Right now if you click on a Colonist that's doing some task, they draw a line to their job destination


What I'd like to see is if I click on an item that's reserved, it'd be nice to have a line draw from the reserved item back to the Colonist (maybe it should be a different color)



Thought it'd be nice and simple thing to add.

I'd love to see a little system where you colonists can just get use to your horrible acts/living conditions at the colony, akin to Dwarf Fortress's dwarf traits/personality. The whole "Urist McUrist doesn't really care about anything anymore" after they've seen a lot of terrifying stuff.

The fear system will probably be back eventually.
