The Plague Event( Explained in Roleplay)

[RedStorm58]

Hello. Whoever finds this will now know wha*coughcough*. I dont have a lot of time left so i will just tell you how we died. Day One: you know, i just noticed something. The plants look a little purpilish. Maybe this is just a stage of there development or something( the plants are the first to be infected. Not the ones you grow, the wild ones) Day forty-nine: The squirrels are......GONE. They just seemed to dis apear at least thats what we thought. Then we found the dead. Bloated and purple. Purple. Heh.(The sqirrels are affected next. All squrrels are gone.). Day sixty:you know, the muffalos are gone.
I am going to tell the govenor about this. It is getting suspicius.( boom rats dont die because they are special. ). Day seventy: the raiders have stopped coming and we are in the middle of the dark season. I found a couple bodies and their skin was a dark purple.( raiders stop coming. If colonist touches bodie with out a hazmat suit, they are infected after a time.) Day 98: A couple of our guys died.

Is this supposed to be a suggestion, or a story?

[Galileus]

Considering the title reads "explained in roleplay", I would think this is a suggestion. Unfortunately, in contradiction to what title suggest, it's not explained too well ^^'

They were sick for a couple of days and then they just died.( you can have a quarintene zone for this part.) Day 109: I am the only one alive. They just all got sick. Maybe we just not careful enough.*coughcough* well good bye.
Requires:quorintene zone in medical room. Hazmat suits: protects people from sickness. Medical wall and door. And medical bed. Suggestion. The plague spreads from the plants to the animals, then the animals to the people. I will explain more later.

The infenction began when the remains of the liner entered the atmosphere. This should happen after at least 10 cycles. When the ship enters the atmosphere, the collent tanks explode, showering the planet. When this happens, all plants are effected. Not any people! Since it hadent developed yet. And potatos are immune against it. This could happen in the middle of a raid too. There could be a mist in the air, thinner than normal fog, but has the slightest tint of purple in it. It first affects plants, cause the plants to look purple. When colonists pick up the wild food, they will complain"this plant looks weird." And causes a slight debuff. When colonists gets sick, they will do all tasks much slower, and after a couple days will die. There is no way to keep them from dying; you can only contain it. And if you dont contain it...... No one is immune to it. This will occure over a hundred day cycle, giving the player tons of time to detect it. More later.
Quarintene zones are zones you desugnate. It should have a large room with a suit room and a airlock. Only doctors can come inside, and if they dont go in with the suit, they have an extremely high chance of becoming sick.
Hazmat suits are complex suits that you can only buy from medical trader ships. You can not make the suit. Imagine this. Your colony is nearly wiped out. The huge mines are inactive. The barracks, the canteen is quiet. Their are rotting bodies in rooms. The quarintene zone has been destroyed. Only one, two or three colonists are left. But they have no hope. As the plague never spares no one. This is what happens when you are not careful. And this could happen over a couple of days.

Why not implement a new zone called quarantine area and colonists that are infected go there. But the colonist that are healthy and wishes to not get infected, will stay away from that area.

Red storm, i was confused when i read it as-well.
But i think I understand it.
It seems quite unforgiving and i'm not sure if i like it at all.

This is a cool idea and to stop the infection coming to close to your base you could make an area around the base out of carpet/concrete/metal tilers ect to stop the infection coming too close
