Am curious about the cantina. Would be keen for a mod which let me entertain caravans (and sell them drugs)

Oh, nothing that cool. I just planned to use the Hospitality mod (lets you designate areas where visitors can live and stuff) with a bunch of booze and billiard tables.

I do think they are supposed to buy things you leave in the visitor's area though. Gonna try to sell them all this Yayo I have lying around.

Visitors (in Hospitality mod) will help your dudes by working as well if their mood is high enough. So I usually mark the whole storage and production areas as visitor zone in addition to the visitor barracks.

I have so far discovered that wargs don't get addicted to Go Juice, so that's where all of my Yayo has been going.

I was about to finally get my copy of the game yesterday, had to save money for a while... BUT then I saw that Blizzard announced Warcraft III Reforged! Sorry Rimworld, I loved you, but this is Warcraft...

Actually it's pretty much that cool. Groups show up, sometimes with items to trade, and you can designate areas that visitors can hang out, sleep, purchase items. You can schmooze them to keep them happy and even recruit your visitors. Setting up a cantina is easy, fun, and profitable.

This may be a new development because I'm pretty sure I've gotten a warg addicted to yayo for reasons I am not obligated to explain to you or anyone else until I'm tried in the hague.

I have become an Imperial army hangout

Just a question guys, what was the biggest population you guys ever managed to get?

[n9103]

Momentarily? 30+ RIP awakened colonists ambushed by 50+ tribals. (I had modded in a giant chamber hoping to get a civil war, only one ended up being hostile.)
For more than a year, including caravans/expeditions? Probably more like 18-20.
In-Base only? Tends to max out at 12 before I start pruning dead weight to keep the raiders in check.

[Greiger]

I've maxed out at 10, but I play with double pop storytellers so ymmv.  I also typically don't set up secondary settlements, only really branching out sending semi permanent hunting party caravans with the set up camp mod that come back to offload leather every few days, and then accompany a trader to sell all that leather to one of the nearby factions.

I really should try to make a little player 'country' at some point with multiple settlements.

I'm going on an epic journey across a 100% size world to reach the spaceship.  Caravan settled down temporarily at the halfway point to resupply, there was some drama and tension before we could build things up, some mental breaks, lotta using mild drugs to blow off steam.  Anyway, one of my most stable married couples (of two of the most important people in the colony) just broke up.

One of them, Will, went on a slaughtering spree.  This was unfortunate because I needed my elephants alive and also because he was currently equipped with marine armor and a plasteel sword.  I sent my best melee fighter to go arrest him hoping he'd come quietly.  Unfortunately he did not, and she ended up cutting off his leg and his ear (she's basically a sith lord).  Thankfully, he only managed to kill one animal: our last dog, a 15 year old Labrador retriever named Extreme.  The wounds from dismemberment put him out of commission for 3 days.

The moment he got out of his treatment spot, his wife Amanu immediately divorced him.

"The last straw was: killed bonded animal."

I have no words.

I've kinda tried that, but at three or so active settlements my laptop really starts to chug.
As far as I can remember, anyway. Maybe I just got tired of the amount of micromanagement necessary to keep all those settlements running smoothly. Also it bugs me a lot that pawns' bedrooms etcetera don't save when they leave a site. Ugh. Also you can't view their social relationships properly if they're separated from their friends. Plus I was kinda tempted to find a mod that made friendships more long-lasting. Seems like people forget each other distressingly fast.

So, transhumanists consider peg legs and similar things bionics. If you want to make a transhumanist happy while having no high tech, just saw his legs off and put wooden things in as a replacement. Quite amusing that they think they are leaving behind weak flesh for strong metal while rolling around in medieval prosthetics.

[Akura]

Odd, since peg legs aren't supposed to offend body purists. Personally, I would think that the mood buff from a peg leg would not be enough to counteract the speed loss from hacking off their leg and jamming a log into the stump. Or that there would be a mood buff.

[Majestic7]

Yeah I didn't hack the leg on purpose, I just had a transhumanist lose their leg to megascrab and had no bionic legs available.

I'm more concerned for characters like one of my current colonists, body purists with a vital prosthetic that isn't likely to be replaced. I.e. a prosthetic heart. I'm not doing any heart transplant surgery when one of my most skilled medics started out with the nickname "Disaster".
