Allow priorizing work to FORCE the colonist to do it, even if they aren't assigned to the job, or someone else is doing it

You mean like how the Look At Me, I'm the Worker Now mod does that? (Maybe someone should Nominate the mod to be included in Rimworld? Just a thought...)

I'm new to the forums and I'm not sure if how simple it would be to design this, but I often find that by mid-game, when I start making multiple tables of the same kind, that it can be cumbersome to transfer bills from one to another or more. Some way to copy the bills from a table and paste them into another of the same kind would be very handy, I think.

allow a colonist to be forced to melee another in draft mode. Currently you can force shots, but not melee.

Actually, you can force melee but only if you're equiped with a melee item.

Prioritize work trumping other conditions.
-Is not a builder (but could be)
-Already reserved by Steve

Instead of going to Steve, drafting him, turning on work, enabling construction, then prioritizing building that workbench, allow the "prioritize work" function to temporarily allow the non-builder to build, and send Steve off on another errand.

Yes, I think that a mod like that should either be included in the game or its features be implemented in game.

Make Pig/Wild Boar and Labrador/Husky able to crossbreed (50/50 chance of what the youth breed is if parents is of different breeds), to make getting additional animal help for hauling less difficult.

I've been playing Rim World for about a month now and something I'd like to have is Forbidden Zones. I always have this problem of my animals eating my food that I am growing and the only way I've found to fix it is by creating an animal area for them. This works well enough but then they eat everything in that area and start starving. I'd like to have them roam across the whole map except for that small area. I can do it by making an animal area that is the entire map except my farming area but would be easier with forbidden zones. I'm not sure if that's something that's simple to code or not. Love the game  Super excited for the up coming teasers

You can simply invert to zones.
Create a new zone, Mark your food store as allowed area and hit invert. Makes everything allowed except your freezer. =)

Still, there are limitations to that set up. The more separate areas you want your colonist to have or not have access to, the more complex it is to set up. Ideally it would be good to have multiple allow and forbid zones. It would add a level of complexity that I think a lot of users wouldn't use or need so it would be better as an option. Example: you select a area you do now or select "Advanced Areas" which will allow you to select multiple allow and forbid zones.

That's the way I would see it working anyway.

It really would be more complex, but I would more than appreciate that.

[Thyme]

You actually mean allowing and forbiding multiple zones simultaneously (on the same pawn), is that right?

If yes, sorry for misunderstanding, that idea is indeed interesting.

Salted meats or Beef Jerky or any kind of preserves that you don't need to eat 1000 of. I'm in the desert and I can't keep my crap cold.

[Rock5]

Pemican is sort of like Beef Jerky in that it lasts a long time. Unfortunately it is a meat and veg recipe so you would have to balance your meat source with your veg production.

There is no reason why you shouldn't be able to keep your food cold. Just use double walls around your freezer, only one entry and preferable an intermediate room between your freezer and the rest of your warmer base.
