Ideas that i've come up with which could be created as separate mods with minimal effort for those already familiar with Rimworld modding

Pipe bomb (single use grenade item) : reskin of frag grenades with smaller "+" 5 tile blast radius. could be crafted with 3 steel + 1 silver/uranium.

Animal Trap (baited trap option) : reskin of steel drop fall trap which requires "food item to set". would require parameters so that player can choose bait . berries for herbivores . meat for carnivores .

Wooden Blocks (lame joy item) : Use block images with colour difference and install requirements.
After landing on a horrible planet and playing chess and games everday for however long surely one of the colonists have thought wheres my lego. only to turn around and release no lego, "bugger" said the colonist "why don't i build my own..."

Ball attached to a stick item (joy item one man backyard tennis) : note no one wins by playing this game. You hit the ball until the ball hits you. (colonist bruised for # days)
If hit Colonist suffers "hit with ball" + "in pain" debuff as well as negative happiness.
If colonist has over set skill in research they can not play game.
Perhaps masochist colonist could binge by playing the game?
Colonist hit chance maybe based on melee skill?
Ball attached to a stick item would require 3x3 area to install. 1x1 in center for item with 3x3 area around it to actually play game.

Ball (joy item) : inflated leather. requires 5 leather to make at tailor bench.
Installed on solid tile.
Colonist holds ball. (raises and lowers) kicking a ball around would be massive amount of coding :P
Colonists could suffer negative happiness if they see others with ball? (to balance value)
Can be sold for small amount.
150% flammable :3
Explodes on single tile if destroyed (pops?) no fire.

Please support the growth of Rimworld dreams

Wooden hoop and a stick?
requires colonist to run with a hoop, which is a heap of coding and animations.

more thinking four colonist posistions "+" around pole to simulate play.
