So any tips on hauling and keeping things clean? I'm at about 6 settlers and just can't seem to keep up...

use manual priorities, and make some dedicated haulers/cleaners. their biggest priority will be those jobs. dedicated haulers will be kept pretty busy year round, especially around harvest time, or if you're doing a lot of mining or the like. one dedicated cleaner should be enough for even a large colony, at first they'll be cleaning all day long but once the colony is tidied up it's pretty easy to stay on top of it. also make sure your colonists dont spend too much time walking around on dirt or grass, as they will track it indoors. paved walkways help with this

if you don't want to do that, just have a day every once in a while where everyone hauls and cleans

I schedule so that two hours at the end of the day is cleaning time. Sometimes I schedule it down if we're clean enough.

Where angels and generals fear to tread.

The framework is certainly there though, it feels pretty organic how relationships form based on ~1 in-game season and I'm personally looking forward to running frontier towns for generations if the game can support that kind of time-scale. Not sure I'm a fan of ditching real months, since that made seasons instantly relateable and understandable, but it's a small cosmetic change and everything else I've seen is really good. The wood fired options are perfect for my standard boreal forest start.

A caravan just came to trade with me in the middle of a heatwave in the loving jungle. Three of them died before they left, leaving me with some sweet iguana skin pants. Although the polar bears they brought seemed strangely unaffected by the heat.

Turn her rear end into warg kibble. The mood malus from butchering and prepping a person will fade in time, Ms. Uggo will keep ruining everyone's day. Might as well get some positive use from her.

One of my pirate prisoners watched her rival get shot and bleed out during a raid, and she's glad about it. +5 mood boost.

One of my colonists was getting chased by a Megascarab he was doing a poor job of hunting when suddenly the cat came running in, stunned it, killed it, and then hungrily devoured several of its body parts.

This update is broken for me. I can't create a new world. When I'm looking at the seed selection screen, I hit generate and the generating world box shows up for a fraction of a second then back to the seed selection screen. Anyone else getting this?

I have a lesbian prisoner right now, so yes, that is a trait pawns can have.

I also have a 38 year old dude who insists on flirting with, and being rejected by every woman in my colony, he has already gotten beat up by one of the women. This update is very good.

I had a spacer fall out of the sky, and it turned out to be one of my colonists' husband. I sent the wife over to rescue and patch him up, thinking he would willingly join up. Nope, he still tried to exit the map, so I sent the wife to arrest him. The guy refuses, turns hostile, and starts fighting a boar for some reason. Husband dies, wife gets super depressed for a season.

Some of the bonuses and maluses for social relationships are a bit out of whack. One of my colonists has a squirrel scratch scar in one eye, but apparantly that counts as being "disfigured" so now everybody has -15 social points towards him. Compare that to the -5 malus someone got for accidentally shooting their entire arm off.

I only had one party so far. Everybody just walked behind the sheriff's house for 10 seconds and then left.

I mostly miss edb interface, I want my drat pawn icons at the top of the screen damnit.

Also, expect a new build to drop before too terribly long. The modders have found some (already fixed) bugs, so I imagine they'll do a 13a at some point in the not too distant future.

I forgot to complain about the lack of icons at the top too. It's amazing how much two mods really improve the quality of life

I'm honestly amazed he hasn't just incorporated EDB into the base game by this point, since he's taken onboard various other mods in the past, and if there were only one mod you would ever want to pick up, it's going to be that one.

I think 5x5 is the minimum to avoid a cramped penalty, but I'm not sure what the minimum size to get the first spacious boost is. I think it might be about 8x8.
