My friend had a similar issue to that with prisoner beds that he fixed by deconstructing the bed and then rebuilding it, which I get rechecks that its valid. (also make sure your people can get to the room in question)

Cool. I don't assume doors are somehow impassable to enemy combatant escorted by my men, and if so, can this be changed somewhere?

Grabbed this while reading through the end of the Spacebase thread and having a lot of fun. I've only been able to finish 1 full game and it ended in a raid where my remaining 2 colonists were being captured by raiders except for a mentally broken raider attacking his cohorts and everyone dying in a fire. Incredible. What are some good defensive setups? I've seen one involving a 'kill box' area that's built as the first room in a cave and another with a diagonal entrances covered by turrets.

Check this for a couple kill room setups I've made: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3598337&pagenumber=8&perpage=40#post433801588. It's essentially the only entrance into the colony, though you may have to double/triple up outer walls elsewhere to prevent attacks from just breaking through instead and not have to deal with your massed defenses.

I saw a great setup on the game's forums that was just 4 small rooms in a series with a turret in the middle of them, the enemies would rush into the room to start shooting the turret and each room anyone not killed by the turret shooting them was severly injured or killed by it exploding. Another cool little option was turrets in little bunkers, the bunker makes it dark so its harder to shoot the turret then at the front or sides you want them shooting out of you put a crafting bench which can be shot over but prevents anyone from rushing into melee range.

The "need grave" message can sometimes come up if you have some animal corpses from hunting and nowhere to put them. Rimworld decides the best place is in a grave, which I think are now off-by-default for animal bodies.

Yeah, but when I got it, I had a dead human body in a cell and a correctly checked open grave (several, in fact) to put him in.

I believe a correctly categorised stockpile will substitute for a grave for the purposes of getting rid of the message, so if you're having trouble just dump all your bodies in a pile outside the front gate. This has the added benefit of making visitors and raiders somewhat uncomfortable. Unfortunately it will also make your colonists a bit unhappy too so you might want to keep them inside if you do this and be sure to firebomb the corpse pile before trying to leave. Edit: "Firebomb the Corpse Pile" is the name of my death metal band. OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 15:27 on Sep 30, 2014 |

What I need now is an incendiary charges mod so that I can string a line of corpses along my town's walls that ignite into an omen of suffering and doom as raiders advance on me.

Raiders have the same mental effects as colonists so far as I know so yeah, that would probably make them a bit unhappy. Even if it doesn't break them, if you start killing them as they come into the colony, it'll make their morale break faster and result in more of them going berserk/wandering around shellshocked rather than fighting you.

I have a dark, dirty and cramped winding corridor that goes on for quite a way in all of my bases. They get mentally sapped, so when the first person pokes through the door and gets shot it is usually a guaranteed tantrum spiral for the enemy team.

Seems to me that the best thing to do is depending on how many besiegers there are, target their food storage so they dash themselves against my impenetrable stone walls rather than potentially harm a colonist with a lucky shot. Though I tend to build my settlements in the open like a small town, to keep things even. boner confessor fucked around with this message at 07:02 on Oct 1, 2014 |

This is why you need to take the plunge if you're on the fence with this game. Not only did Tynan fix one of only major concerns from Alpha 6 (missing limbs making colonists unable to do anything), he made that whole system better. And then added more content to everything else, too. Maybe diseases or melee weapons or materials, or whatever, will need tweaking -- but you can actually expect the developer to do that. Every iteration gets better. This loving game gives me hope for the entire industry.

What an amazing update. Love the new stats for things/people. I am a sucker for that kind of stuff. I was able to get in when the game was still $20 (after the KS ended, before the price went up), I think this is one of the best -- if not THE best -- KS/early access games I've had the pleasure of supporting. Love the way the game is coming along at a good clip, I've had tons of fun with it already and am just floored by what Tynan does with every update. Pretty amazing.

Well that was a nice surprise to come home to.Pornographic Memory posted:So after watching the video I see not only can you eat people or use their corpses for intimidation (as people have been discussing here), but now you can also wear them It's great, you can kidnap someone, execute them, rip out their organs and sell them for cash, skin them and turn them into a coat, and then eat the rest. Frankly, all you're really missing is the ability to make freaky statues out of the bones to line your entryway with after you did all the other stuff.

I'm amazed all this came this quickly after Alpha 6, and diseases? Organ harvesting? Peg-legs? I do not see what new features can possibly match these, other than simply more stuff. The game has a fantastic foundation, and if you do not own this game go buy it now.

God I'm so glad I backed this game, it's one of the only 'early access' games I have that I would be perfectly happy with even if development stopped now and he just keeps adding new features. I can't wait to give this version a try.
