Sleep is for scrubs only

[Deredizockt]

I came to that point where my Colonists just couldn't do shit because all were busy with making food, harvesting crops and butchering Boomalopes after stroking them...
After some time I noticed that some Drugs give rest and that there could be the possibility to take drugs instead of sleep...
I have 2 vegetables now I think it was too much for those pathetics...
Did anyone try something like that and got their colonists to that point where they don't take 2 hour naps or brain damage?

Use feed the colonists mod, allows you to cook for meals at once with four times the ingredients for a balanced approach, at four times the crafting speed. It just cuts down on trips back and forth for ingredients between every meal.

That makes .... total sense. At home we have a family of four. We don't cook one meal, then another, then another, then another AND then all sit down and eat it. Cooking for 4 should take about the same time as cooking for 1, it just needs more ingredients. I don't know why I have not seen this issue before until you mentioned it, but now that you have I think I may have to play with that mod.

Holy Moshe you just changed my life.

Or you can just make a high priority 1 tile storage for veggie to the left of the stove seat and another one to the right for meat. Then your cook won't have to make any trips and your haulers will keep this stashed.

At this point I very nearly spit my drink on the monitor

There is a someone who is called a Night Owl, who stays up at night but can't stand because of the sun...

And there is a thing or a drug known as Wake-up...

Wake-up, Wake-up Wash your face and take your Wake-up pills!

I'm don't know if this is helping, but there is a drug in the game known as Wake-up, it keeps your guys up just watch out for the addiction, and overdose of them.

[The Great Muffalo]

When drugs were first released, as soon as a ship came by with yayo, I bought like fifty of it and made my colonists take it every day. a few of my colonists started developing addictions, and then I realized that they weren't gaining as much after they took them, and once all the drugs were gone, they all went crazy. I haven't put any colonies on drugs since then as it seems to be balanced so that you'll never come out ahead if you use them. Weed is the only exception, although it is slightly addictive, I usually grow a ton of it, selling most of it and telling people to only smoke it if they are about to beat another colonist to death because they haven't watched the sunset in a while.

Right, about overdosing.
In one of my campaigns, I sent one of my supersolders to clean raiders base, and gave him some wake-up, because most of the time battle comes to how long I can keep kiting raiders. He never used wake-up before. And when he used his first dose, my caravan gone missing. Wait, what? Message says he overdosed... But how!? It's his first ever used dose, and it's exactly one dose. How you can manage to ingest exactly the dose, meant to be ingested at a time, and overdose from it? Taking a pill isn't exactly a rocket science, you don't require any special skills for it >< Just one of Rimworld arbitrary things.

Because you had an undiagnosed structural weakness in your anterior cerebral artery and that one dose was just enough to push you over the edge and pop it.

Stick with psychite tea, it's modestly effective and much less dangerous.

I guess, it's too late now to demand a refund from luciferum dealers, since they promised that nano-machines would fix any physiological issues, hidden or not :@
As I said, it was a super-solider, with all the best quality bionics, and maintained by luciferum. Easy -100k colony wealth with him gone 

[Deredizockt]

Did anyone actually try to have a colonist who doesn't sleep at all?
Tried to give one of my other colonists a bionic heart and stomach but that just cuts the sleep to 6 hours a day compared to my "safe Wake-Up dose" which allows them to stay up for 22 hours 
PS: Safe Wake-Up dose doesn't mean the Psychite drugging is safe... at least my colonists won't  slaughter my Boomalopes when they get a mental break from that scar they have on their kidney... ._.

The hard drugs are mainly to help raiders be annoying. They are allowed to players to give an illusion of fairness.

Should have invested in the bionic brain.

But reading the description of luciferium... you're right, anything that improves blood filtration that massively should dramatically reduce the side effects and withdrawal of any other drugs.   Of course, you could argue that it should also reduce the *effect* of any other drugs -- it cleans them up quickly!
