In response to the guy asking about adding this as a very low priority task, what would be the feasibility of adding in the ability to mark it as a hunting target?

Is it possible to have an increased exp gain rate from practicing at the shooting range?

I like how this game can result in quotes that would be quite unnerving when said in public, out of context. StorymasterQ

This is what I'd like to see.  I know that you can spawn creatures (see: mechatronics mod to produce mechanoid colonists) so maybe you could place an item that spawns a creature with like 1,000 health and is stationary.  They colonist would shoot it to death, gaining skill, and would also 'kill' it and would either have to build a new one, or the structure could spawn another one.

I'll see what I can do. :)

Cheers!
You get up to like 99% of skill level 21, but it never rolls over to 21.  So your colonist won't degrade from 20 to 19 while they sleep, and I have several growers that stick at 20.  Having the 1.5x skill rate interest level helps tons in staving off skill decay through practice.  I wish there were some method to slowly raise the decay cap... like at skill 5, it doesn't decay at all, and if there were a method to raise that to 15 without decay, that'd be really fun.

Why don't you upgrade to Alpha 5?

I believe that creating a huntable practice dummy would be the best, but that sounds like something for one of the mechanoid mods.

Works as is in Alpha 6 without any update required.

Yep, huntable target practice would be cool, then we wouldn't have to worry about drafting colonists/looking out for them, they'd just proceed according to their needs.

DO YOU HEAR US, OH MIGHTY MODDERS! Make it happen! ;D
To beer or not to beer.
That is a laughable question.

A .zip download would be nice for all Mac users out there.

GREAT! Now my colonists can become proper gunners/snipers.......Now if only I could train them in medicine

Can we build our house out of targets? The pirates need the training too, you know?
