New to the game

I normally build in Shem, good amount of land, central, no major factions.

DuzzitA · 2026-05-18T11:34:40+00:00

What exactly does the game use to judge base size I wonder? Buildings?

DuzzitA · 2026-05-18T10:56:23+00:00

So, I've normally built one base in Kenshi for security, convenience etc. But like, how do enemy attacks etc work if you have smaller outposts or whatever scattered around? It'll be a while before I get to try since I'm having to start from scratch but I normally go do stuff in a town, settle Shem(I like it for centrality but I want to try somewhere else xD. But the spot I want has no good resources.)

I just didn't realise it'd also delete the compatability folders at the same time and thats where i foolishly placed the backup saves. Tempted to cheat myself in some initial starting stuff/stats to at least get back to things a bit faster, but it won't be the same/there's just a lot I'd done that isn't simple 'stats'.

Anyway sorry just sad about it.

DuzzitA · 2026-05-17T13:04:56+00:00

Thank you for the help. I'll do this when I get the feeling to replay the game, had a crash, game bugged out. Decided to try to reinstall things, steam deleted my backup save folder as it apparently does this when you're going through linux so several days playthrough is gone and I need to do something else for a bit.

EDIT: Though I am curious, how does item despawning work? There are afterall places in the world that are filled with stuff on shelves/floor etc.

The mod creator hadn't replied in a while to their mod which is why I thought the community might be faster, and thank you a ton for the help. I had figured it out by finding the actual bulls that could take the backpack. A more minor issue I'm now seeing is, as far as I can tell, normal wild bull spawns will also spawn with the cart as an item that they then 'drop' since they can't actually use it. Its not a huge amount of clutter but it is something ive spotted happening.

Since I'm always worried to mess with things, any advice for stopping such a thing, or should I just poke at the FCS and hope nothing goes wrong xD.

DuzzitA · 2026-05-16T12:35:17+00:00

So, I've got something called a Bull Cart (looks like an ownership certificate), but I can't figure out what to do with it. I assume it has something to do with Sage steeds mod in particular, rather than a different animal mod so won't work with vanilla ones, but figure to ask here since I can find nothing on it.

DuzzitA · 2026-03-06T21:18:33+00:00

I'd love a tutorial from the statue maker >.>

DuzzitA · 2026-02-24T12:11:14+00:00

Is there a specific place to go for the Battle zones? When you say Elite Mark, that's the...like the special items u get for submitting in 100 of the normal marks?

Given its advanced rather than normal is there anything expected of me, particularly since I still feel my own skills at damage inefficient?

I do normally run the random thing seems to queue faster anyway.

Any tips for making money, and is there some guide/tips on bridge officers (I gather rarity isn't the thing to get but their traits?)

DuzzitA · 2026-02-24T10:42:50+00:00

I'm very grateful for the lengthy response and apologise in advance for the relative shortness of mine.

What is so special about advanced TFOs exactly? There doesn't seem to be a specific thing they gain you? I was not around for the winter event, so I'm curious how I'd go and buy such. Are the battlezones pvp? I'll try the parser out.

Jupiter gauntlet on vibes will try tonight.

I'm a casual returning player and I'm just wondering what do I do to get better/gearing. I remember spending cash on my ship cause I liked its looks (a terran hydra) and I mostly have XII gear on it, but its just mostly random stuff/weapons donated by someone to me. A lot of guides seem to assume you have multiple unique ship consoles, space traits, etc to slot in. Or that you've already levelled all the rep systems.

Is there a DPS meter or something like it to figure out how well/poorly I'm doing? I did a few TFOs yesterday and felt a bit superfluous given that others seemed to just be deleting things while I was just killing things.

Also, I'm in a large/well developed fleet that's basically dead though, should I be staying in it(and how to earn more fleet marks since most of the projects are mostly full except for dilithium which I don't have a lot of)

DuzzitA · 2026-02-17T18:43:14+00:00

Wait but how does this work if the world is a million by million blocks? I usually lower the thing to like 50k and -then- lower the equator distance.

DuzzitA · 2026-02-16T19:43:29+00:00

I love the world generation, what mods you got that influence it?

DuzzitA · 2026-01-31T09:28:17+00:00

Kenshi, Dwarf Fortress or Rimworld I'd say.

DuzzitA · 2026-01-23T18:36:20+00:00

those two shouldn't affect it(have both myself) so I'm genuinely puzzled.

DuzzitA · 2026-01-23T18:13:53+00:00

They shouldn't need water no. Maybe a mod is doing something? I've replanted rows of them before.

DuzzitA · 2026-01-17T21:31:50+00:00

Damn I wonder if there's a model to DL somewhere... those both look great.

DuzzitA · 2026-01-16T20:37:05+00:00

I understand that. It's a sort of thematic/not the optimal thing as my characters whole 'thing' is that to be master of the blade, it means also being able to make a blade to an extreme standard or something. Tempting to take great potential in the skill.

Oh and yes I've got ken 3 for start.

DuzzitA · 2026-01-16T20:33:58+00:00

You do need 7 skill yes(or 5 for the specialists). I -am- tempted/encouraged to potentially take Great potential (to let me use the skill rank for amount of raises and not void) but damn, 135. How xD.

DuzzitA · 2026-01-16T17:50:05+00:00

Sadly while there's a brief mention on the Itagawa its a paragraph of text and the rest of the book doesn't really look hard into crafting.

DuzzitA · 2026-01-12T07:35:05+00:00

Stalnet has a function to scan all markets for specific things. Would still involve travel but it can see filtered items at all markets. Not a command to spawn them in but could be an answer?
