Friend's Support

[Silvador]

You know when you're feeling down and depressed, and like life just isn't worth living anymore... and then your good friend comes along and comforts you, lifting your spirits, even if just a little bit, and giving you the strength to soldier on?

I think that RimWorld could really use this. When a colonist is in a poor mood, and they have a close relationship with another colonist, that second colonist could go and chat with the first, have a drink with them, or play a game to help pull them out of their funk. It could add a small mood bonus that lasts for a couple of hours, just enough to stave off madness, that little bit of happiness to keep them from their mental breaking point. And if they have multiple friends in the colony, each one could give an individual mood boost, so the more friends they have, the less likely they will be to have a poor mood because even in the darkest of times, having all your friends by your side can help you through anything.

Hahahahahahaha, friends.

Ha.

Liked the idea, the doctors already cheer the patient for a possible mood boost.

On the same note, when more than 2 colonists don't like one, he could be bulied, and have a social scar for the rest of his life. "The colonist with a peg leg was called stompy -20 mood"

That is dark, this should not be done.

*That is dark, this should DEFINITELY be done.

There fixed. It's RimWorld. Also divorce should possibly trigger fights. :3

[Silvador]

divorce should possibly trigger fights. :3

Doesn't it already? I mean, divorce adds a negative mood towards the other pawn, making them more likely to quarrel and beat each other to a pulp, right?

In the heat of the moment though! Not just the negative mood bit, but the visceral shock. Should also have a pretty severe mood penalty for a season. Like -15 or something for a season.
