Solar flare needs to change

[DDRMANIAC007]

It really does. Rather than insta disable everything perhaps have a random percentage of things be affected by it.

[Celthric Aysen]

the solar flare is not the the problem,
The problem is that there isn't enough random incidents for the story teller to execute.

That pretty much sums it up.

Or he could add a special type of wall or research project that insulates whatever is inside those walls from the flare's harmful effects. (sorry if this should go under suggestions)

[Celthric Aysen]

There's a solution called don't use turrets and use manpower instead.

The current development stage of BP+ is currently adding at least 6 new incidents, on top of the 2 which it already includes. That might help your issue?

I wholeheartedly agree.
It still is obnoxious if your stoves don't have any power and your guys get a mental break because they have to live off strawberries for a day. Sometimes I think I'm managing a 5 star beach resort and not a colony of hardy survivors.

"Oh noes, only strawberries and no ice cream to go with them either!"
"My room is too small!"
"I have to share my bedroom with a person I trust with my life every couple of days!"
"The carpet is dirty! Where's the maid?"
...

Keep a little surplus of meals, build bigger rooms, assign only one colonist to a room and make a maid (colonist with highest priority with cleaning).

Never had a mental break because of solar flare or eclipse.

SMF have such a functionality. I dunno why Tynan switched it off...

[Bodog999]

When I have a solar flare I normally panic cuz my base is almost always protected with sniper- engergy- heavy and railgun turrets luckly I also have about 10-15 people with uzi's M-16's engergy rifles M-24's and sniper rifle turrets oh and 1 guy with a minigun. But randy it not being so hard to me he gives me 5 wander joiners in 10 days time all with their own weapons.

It was to facebooky. No one likes things to be facebooky.

On topic:
I have got 0 issues with power outages either due to solar flares or eclipses. Though some flavour would be nice

In SMF likes are more like user reputation. You don't like a post or topic, but you like a user (or dislike). And you can gives multiple likes to a single user, each time when you think he deserves. But as I recall, only once a day.
