IRL people train hand-to-hand combat through sparring. We can already make wooden swords, all we'd really need is a way to get our colonists to fight with eachother without trying to kill eachother, and we could train melee that way.

Mining, intellectual, construction, growing level up pretty fast with at least 1 flame.

Crafting/art have good, but somewhat slower rates.  Handling is in this category if someone is constantly doing it too.

Cooking levels up pretty slowly considering the frequency/duration it's done.  Social and medicine also fall in this category, trainable but relatively slow.

Skills like shooting and melee are awful, especially melee.  These are doubly worse because along with medicine, they require lots of manual inputs to train effectively (hunting is still a false choice to leave to the AI in Rimworld).

+1 to wanting more skills to be trainable. Even better would be having pawns train each other.

I would love it if the animal skill was easier to train.

Thanks everyone for the feedback! I'm making some adjustments now based on this. Much appreciated.

Some off-topic random suggestions were appearing, but this is just a feedback thread so those should go elsewhere. I removed them.

I'll lock this thread, too, since it's no longer needed. Thanks again everyone.
