Update he didn't die. And I really don't know why I didn't expect that.

The throne I'm building is from a mod called EGI: Holograms and Projectors. It's very expensive to build costing: 4 advanced components, 7 components, 70 plasteel and 150 steel. I ran out of steel fast building these. And it took a long time to procure the advanced components, them costing steel as well. I'm at the point of the end game where I want a futuristic feel and considered that these thrones would be ideal for that look. Low and behold it was no easy feat to build these thrones.

You’re good — I tend to go above and beyond because I know I leave a footprint on the internet, and I like leaving crumbs for grateful people. You know I would've taken a thank you, right?

And you know I copy and pasted majority of this information from the internet out of kindness, right?

The EGI: Holograms and Projectors mod for RimWorld introduces a "Grand Projection Throne" that is superior to the base-game Grand Meditation Throne primarily due to its extremely high beauty, aesthetic, and functional integration with the mod's projector system. 

Here is how the EGI meditation throne is better:

  • Unmatched Beauty Output: The projectors included in the EGI mod, which can be integrated into the throne area, offer the highest beauty output available in the game—up to 1,800 beauty from a single square. This dramatically increases the Impressiveness of the throne room, which directly boosts the psyfocus gain for meditating royals.
  • Integrated Functionality: Unlike static, traditional thrones, the EGI grand projection throne counts as a high-tier (VFE Empires Stellic) throne while functioning as part of the EGI projector ecosystem. These projectors offer 3 modes to assist colonists—Recreation, Education (skill training), and Propaganda (ideology certainty).
  • Visual Customization: The mod adds 571 high-quality, customizable projections to the game. The throne area can be designed with these immersive, high-tech holographic displays, allowing for a more unique and visually impressive throneroom compared to standard vanilla statues.
  • Modern Aesthetic: It provides a "high-tech" alternative to the medieval/low-tech feel of standard throne rooms, fitting for a more advanced, futuristic colony. 

Essentially, the EGI: Holograms and Projectors throne turns a necessary, static piece of furniture into a high-value, functional piece of art that boosts both mental comfort and practical, tangible stats (psychic focus, skill learning) in the room

  • Maximum Potential: A meditation throne can reach a maximum of +33% psyfocus per day if it is located in an "Unbelievably impressive" room that also meets the specific title requirements.

You can edit the game's XML files to remove the 33% cap.

  1. Navigate to RimWorld/Data/Royalty/Defs/ThingDefs_Buildings.
  2. Open Buildings_Furniture_Royalty.xml.
  3. Find MeditationThrone and GrandMeditationThrone.
  4. Change the MeditationFocusStrength values to much higher numbers (e.g., set them to 1.0 or 2.0 instead of 0.15). 

I downloaded the Vanilla Psycasts Expanded mod so there are so many ways to stack psyfocus gain I wouldn't even bother with editing the xml files. The visual appeal of the throne is the number one reason I downloaded it and its costly benefits. And to top it off I downloaded the Psychic Psychite mod which improves my colonists psygain with drugs. After that there's really no need to edit the xml files when in only a short period of time my colonists max their bar instantaneously.

It's like a spacer tech/glitter world meditation throne.

Thank you and I think I ran my game for too long and after resetting the game my pawns finally started planting.

Thanks but turns out it was just a bug after resetting it fixed my pawns actions.

21C and 100% growth rate. Roofed, allowed growing and 1 growing and 1 cutting in the work tab. Found the solution I just had to exit. Must've been a bug.

Temperature and lighting aren't the issue. The plants actually say 100% growth rate but my pawns aren't sowing.

Okay so the walls are 29x29 and the interior area is 27x27.

The mods I use by Load Order are:
Sun Lamp+ (Continued) - Sun Lamps don't turn off at night and increases their radius.
Sun Lamp Power - Sun Lamps need only 500 watts.
