Hey, I was just wondering when do you guys decide it's time to start a new colony.
Is it when you reach a certain milestone e.g. a year, or rather when your base is very advanced making it too easy (boring)?

Pic related, it's my base that I'm slowly getting tired of (not sure what else I could add).

Really impressive I like what you have done with the place. What mode is this played on.

I see one weakness, if you get a short circuit, lightning strike or for some other reason a fire is started in your solar farm, lets say a raider throws a Molotov on the west wall of your solar farm, then you will have a bad day because you can't put out the fire easily.
So many ideas... so little time.
Silence is the worst answer.

He wont get a short circuit, short circuits only happen if your batteries/the electric devices are rained on. He has a roof over them.

Here's an idea. You can try and challenge yourself to make your colony completely self-sufficient, then set the game to fast forward and see how long they live on their own.

I like to use the dev console and just spawn unbeatable numbers of enemies, then start again (i don't really like leaving sufficient colonies alone, I need closure, horrific, bloody closure)

If he has a roof over them how are they generating solar power? There is still a chance for a short circuit on a solar panel isn't there? Or direct lightning strike on the farm. Even if that is unlikely it could happen.
