Your Cheapest Ideas

Nicknames, as far as I understand, are part of a single first/last combo. So any given nickname will ALWAYS be associated with a particular name.

Unless my digging is incorrect, there's no randomization whatsoever on name combinations.

UI: In the work priorities list:
When you click on a work type name, which has a skill associated with it, it should sort the workers by that skill: highest>0>unable.
If you right click: it should sort by their interest: 2 flames>1 flame>no flame.

Make resetting traps be under flick instead of haul since unless everyone laying around doing nothing they'll never get around to doing it so you have to order it one by one.

Another one for the UI :

I would like the ability for Identical Workbenches to be linked, so the can work the same list of Bills.

First I thought of copying the bills, but that "only" works for Bills set to "forever" or "do-until-X" If I want a specific amount
I still would have to handjuggle.

Not a bad idea for it to be an option, but I often have different workbenches restricted to different people. I don't mind if my low-skilled pawns are doing things where skill doesn't matter, but if I put in an order for assault rifles I want my best crafter, and only my best crafter, making all of them.

[SpaceDorf]

So do I, but things like reclaim can work on many workbenches and when I have more than one skilled crafter and need 20 dusters or parkas, pants and shirts .. it gets messy

Why must I have so many Ideas ?

One for the UI :

In the restriction tab where you select how the pawns should spend their time, make it so, that clicking on a hour sets the whole line to that type of activity.

And one for Gameplay :

Make it an Option to set  Realtime Intervals for Autosave, so hours of paused planning don't go to waste if you forget to save.

Yes, please!

BIG aim bonus for shooting at unmoving/fixed/downed targets.

I'm talking about things like HIVES. My colonists were missing 90% of the shots from 5 feet away. Christ!

Probably been suggested before but...

Positive mood buff on the rescue of a rescued crash pod victim.

I just had a pod crash with an unaffiliated pawn aboard. No great stats but I have the facilities to rescue her. But if I rescue her rather than capture her and spend time and resources healing and feeding her  she just walks out of my colony with no benefit to me.

If my colonists get a mood debuff for having an "innocent raider" die while a prisoner, then it only seems fair that upon the successful rescue of pod crash victim there ought to be an upside buff, no?

New auto-generated zone, similarly to Home Zone. It would be Indoor Zone.

You mean like getting a reward for doing like something like the right ( humane ) thing ?
Woooooooooaahh Dude Awesome.

I always rescue and treat downed raiders. My reward is faction goodwill, less hauling of gear , and the occassional organ donation ..

[Havan_IronOak]

I applaud your policy but downed escape pod crash victims generally don't have a faction so there's no reward for rescuing them.

[SpaceDorf]

They have. Its called Spacers and gives you nothing.

YES PLEASE.

Make rocks fall from mountain roofs when struck by mortar fire. It shouldn't be too horrifically difficult.
