Think about it folks! Your ship gets taken out at the last minute while trying to get some sensitive information out to stop the evil forces harassing you and your crew ends up saved at the last moment by the emergency pods! Suddenly you're put on some strange new planet out in who knows where trying to survive long enough to build up your ship and go back to the task at hand.

Seriously this will have to be like a Challenge thing for Rimworld/FTL players where you play a round of FTL and when you die you have to start a RimWorld colony until you get a new ship running then you can try again at FTL.
Ugh... I have SO MANY MESSES TO CLEAN UP. Oh also I slap people around who work on mods <3

This mean we can have a mod like Rimworld:AfterFTL, really story feeling xD

I like it.  Time to play some FTL followed by some Rimworld!  Have to play Human though to keep the feel.

Well it might be a little speculation on my part byt it appears that ty was having thoughts of some little space game early on (the spaceship game in the prototype pack)

Maybe Hopefully it's going to be combined somehow in the future

What's funny is I'm just putting in the ship construction ending, which would send you back into space in a small ship.

So yeah! Play FTL -> Lose FTL-> Play RimWorld -> Win RimWorld ->Play FTL -> Lose FTL -> repeat!

Ermagerd, I want Mantis, Engis and Rockmen now! I think I found most of the necessary files to mod already.

PS: Well, that would have been too easy...

Would definitely be interesting having Rockmen and Mantis' fighting off raiders instead of all humans

Heh engis have mad repair research and construction bonuses. Rocks have mad hp and aue melee. Mantis are fast and have good single targe melee. Zoltans power circuits nearby and charge batteries, but take damage in the rain. Slugs... dunno really. But yeah lol mods in the future

Someone has to do this; sorry fellas

Rimworld's two core setting concepts are A) No sentient alien life and B) No Faster Than Light travel.  FTL has both.  They cannot exist in the same universe.

I'm a hardcore setting nerd.  I couldn't help but post this.
