I'm @ 97 days and all my crops are dead.  Very little food.  Very little animals and no trees in the vicinity. 

If it goes on any longer.  My colony will die.

Cannot buy anything.  No Silver. Spent all to keep my colony with food.

When you're young, everything feels like the end of the world. But it's not. It's just the beginning.

in a pinch you can also dig up graves and butcher the bodies.  bodies don't decay in graves.  They're like cryptosleep for dead things!

Volcanic Winter is now @ 120 days.  Hit with a cold snap -143 degrees.  Colonists have Hypothermia and dying.
No food, Animals and Silver.

Disaster!!!!

really, are you counting actual game days, or saying it has been 4 months?  a month is 10 days on the rim.

There are 10 days to a Rimworld month.  So I've had a Volcanic winter for 1 year.  If there are 12 month to a Rimworld year.

Just another example of how RimWorld was secretly inspired by the Donner Party and Jamestown.

This is like being in a remote fishing town in Libera and asking, "Why can't I just pay one of the fishermen $10 to take me back to Los Angeles?"

Whaaaat 1 month is 10 days.... What a revelation, now I need to think differently...
My Vulcan winter started 1st November,  now it's June I think or may. So it last 70-80 days  and it will end soon? It's fun, it allowed me to expand my base, resources coz I don't need to care about food and plants. Now they work for food 😀. Just to survive,  like me... 😄
I'm using hardcore modpack syndicat.

Nice! The longest Volcanic Winter I have had was like 4 or 5 game months.
It matters not if we win or fail. It's that we stood and faced it.

Go canibal (joywire ppl). Eat the growers if they are useless  ;D

Using SK as well. I think VW and toxic fallout last much longer in it. Mine lasted 13 rim-months (130 days) and then I turned it off from console because it hadn't ended.

How to turn it off? And if I turn it off will it come later again? I don't won't to shut it down forever it would be cheating.

Open developers mode, click the debug actions menu, click the end map condition button, select the condition you want to end... will not prevent the volcanic winter from returning.
