"Rimworld-guide" ?

The first thing that popped in my mind when I read that was "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Rimworld"...

Don't thank me, I strive to share.

"Rimworld-guide"

Why not just, "RimWorld"?

After all, the game isnt called Rimworld-Guide... :/

Edit:Fix'd

Tynan

Technically it's called RimWorld, to be clear.

Of course everyone calls BioShock Bioshock, so I don't think it's a huge issue either way :D

It's a great idea, but I suggest we move it to RimWorld (rimworld.wikia.com) which name is available on Wikia, before we all start to contribute like crazy.

If OP doesn't want to do it, I can. Not trying to steal any thunder here, I just want what's best for RimWorld.

Tynan

I think naming it just RimWorld is the best move as well.

Yea "RimWorldguide" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Without any quick answer from williamknox, I created the RimWorld Wiki and added a few pages, mostly inventories of buildings, structures and characters traits and backgrounds. It needs at least a page about power distribution and a page about trade. A page about known bugs by version would be a nice addition, as well as a quick new player guide with the first few steps to survive.

While reading in-game description, I noticed some typos and inconsistencies with actual game number (for example in build 203 solar panels have an advertised power output of 1,500 although it is actually 1,700), I can provide with some proof-reading services if text strings are available as a separate file.
