Great price for a great game while in development.

Sappers and Traps focuses on new ways for attackers to evade typical defenses and kill boxes to gain entry to your base and attack your colony. It also involves new trap style defenses for your colony.
New features include:
-Improved AI pathing and attack strategies such as no longer attacking unpowered turrets directly and running from eminent explosions.
-Sappers are a new attacker who will blast of dig around typical defenses in order to gain entry.
-Traps can be set for invaders, such as deadfall, explosive IED, & Incendiary IED.
-Improvements in job and task reassignments.
-Incidents for Toxic Fallout, Volcanic Winter, Manhunter Pack, Chased Refugee, & Psychic Sooth
-Allowed Area designation which can prevent colonist from traveling to undesirable locations.
-Playable Ice Sheet Biome
-Also includes changes to door functions, storage copy/paste functions, and build snowman joy activity.

Episode 4 - Security Turrets, Deadfall Traps, & cover fire walls would be good to have in place in case of an attack. I tend to wait too long for these, so lets get started on them now.

Fun LP, will tune in again.

A few remarks...
Your power problems will really be solved once you build a battery or two.
Never put prisoners in a stockpile room.  Your colonists will ignore all resources in that room.  That's why your colonists are starving.

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback.
I knew there had to be a bad reason to put the prisoner there, couldn't figure out what it could be & hoped it wouldn't matter for a short term prison.
Thanks for clarifying the starvation issues also. I was starting to wonder if it was a new bug I had encountered.
And I hope to add batteries next time.

Looking forward to your next episode!

Episode 5 - This isn't Free Play, & Cassandra isn't giving us much room to breath. Events happen rapidly, making progress much slower than I would like. Managing new projects sometimes means previous plans go unaddressed.

Thanks for the shoutout
TIL you see the weapon range when you select it on a colonist.

I'm a bit worried you're overextending your base though.  You have a lot of powergen already with the solar panels and turbine.  By investing too much in buildings you don't need yet, you run the risk of gaining too much wealth and attracting bigger raids than you can handle right now.  Also be careful with food.  Don't grow too much, or you'll have the same problem.

My advice would be to look at efficiency in these areas (food & power production) so you have a little bit more than what you need.  For food it depends if you want to make it your main source of income or not.  Every plant you harvest gets planted, moved and stored.  If it ends up rotting because the freezer is full, you've waisted a lot of time the pawns could have been mining or building.

You have 4 colonists but would want to produce 5-6 meals/day (to build up some reserves in case of blight, prisoners or a new colonist).
For potatoes: growing time 3 days, yield 4 potatoes.  So you'd need 3 days * 6 meals * 10 potatoes / 4 yield = 45 plants.
You have 90, not including the strawberries and hunted animals.  (Do double check these values though, I'm going from memory.)

Concerning hunting, it's something I don't do unless I absolutely need to.  Every leather comes from nothing and also adds to the wealth score of your colony.  But again, it really depends if you're saving up for something.  Me, I'd rather put these wealth points in defences at the start of the colony.
Just a different view on things, if you play it differently, I respect that a lot.  If I wanted to watch someone play the way I do it, I'd just play the game myself instead.

Thanks Katorone,
I like to be able to see the numbers for refernece & and it helps overall. I tend to make a best guess when recording though, as I figure most viewers will not want me making them wait while I look at the numbers. I usually hope I can adjust as I go along and make up for the decisions I made poorly. But I do truly appreciate being able to get a better perspective where & why I may be making mistakes.

I also tend to forget about colony wealth when making my plans, but I see how it could be good if I want to avoid getting trampled because I am unprepared.

Please feel free to continue to offer advice. You've made some good points and given me some additional things to take into consideration.

Episode 6 - Power flow has been intermittently unreliable. Taking a few steps to assure power is consistent, or at least as much as that's possible without significant interference.

Lovely!
Seems you're off to a great start!  I'm not sure if you have a pawn that dislikes heat, but if you do, make sure to give him the cowboy hat your researcher is wearing.

Good idea! I plan to do tailoring soon, so hopefully everyone will be wearing cowboy hats, unless there is something better available. Cowboy hats should be my best option because of the heat resistance and the social bonus, at least until I get good armor helmets.

Episode 7 - The raid left us with an enemy to imprison. Last time we released the prisoner, this time we will attempt to recruit in order to increase our colony size.
