I'm somewhat confused. I need a bunch of items like "parts" and "mechanism" and such to make a lot of things, but have no idea how to get them. it is probably just a research that I'm missing(crafting 2 maybe), but i just don't get it.
EDIT:
figured it out, and is there any way to make heat strokes less crazy, or disable them? I just had to abandon a colony because i got a heatwave before i managed to get power going, and got a raid with 3 of my 5 colonists incapacitated, and one died almost immediately fighting a raider.
