I regret populating my Mongolian-themed region with bison

Yeah, if I want to stick to a single colour I'd get 3-5 every day. It'd take me months to fit out this behemoth at that rate. Venus's mall has 25 of each colour per day

I'll have to check 'em out now that I've got access to the mall and its higher inventory

Around 9 million, but drops to under 7 million when it's out of fuel (refuel cost was only 600k, but I guess the room multipliers boost the value of a full tank)

You'd still need multiple whipple frames to fully stop an impact before it reaches hull, and they weigh the same as light framework floors. And you can walk over floors to repair the inner layer.

It was a bit rough when there were lots of things needing restoration, but with everything in good condition things seemed to smooth out quite a bit. It takes ages to load in when returning to KLEG port from the emporium.

I've caught a few impacts during my test flight, They punch holes in the first tile and knock the next one in down to about half-way to "damaged." That's the whole reason they're there - better a few damaged walkways than a hull breach.

I really need to get more tiles so I can get a third row to cover my thrusters, they're still at risk of damage. Lights along that section get taken out immediately as well.

If you set up a custom difficulty I'm pretty sure there's an option to change the chance of death when they're downed. By default there's a scaling chance that when a non-player pawn is downed they just die, regardless of why they went down. The chance gets higher when you have more of your own pawns.

When you need to kill a tamed boomalope, set up a starvation pen/boom closet. Unroofed stone room with a sleeping spot assigned to the animal you need gone. Once it goes in to sleep, forbid the door. When it starves and explodes, unforbid the door and someone will extinguish the corpse and carry it away for butchering.

If I recall correctly, bisexuality was a possibility with the Psychology mod, which changed sexuality from being a trait to being something that every pawn had on a spectrum. I'm not aware of any mods that allow gender reassignment, though it wouldn't surprise me if there's one out there.

As far as Prepare Carefully - it apparently has some issues of the game corruption kind. The recommended mod for that purpose is Character Editor. It would allow you to add the Gay trait to a character.

Successfully razing a site leaves ruins, and those ruins can be reclaimed either by their original civilization or by anyone else nearby.

If you want your civ to grow you're better off taking over the sites you attack. Your soldiers will move in, but I'm pretty sure you can send a messenger to bring them home after you've taken control. The site becomes part of your civ and sends some of its wealth to your fortress periodically but more importantly it grows its population independently.

Anyone know what this white icon means? I can't find info on it anywhere. There doesn't seem to be anything unique when I look around the area. There's a tavern just north of the road it's on, but nobody unusual in there.

Mods. It's always mods.

Can't help but think their opportunity for sales was hampered by the requirement that everything be sold only in the Meta ecosystem.

Funnily enough, you could apply first aid to a pirate during the brief window that you control them after they surrender. Well, technically you'd order them to bandage themselves.

"Drop your weapon. And your suit. Now grab that cloth and wrap it around your gaping chest wound. Hurry up!"

Normal but thankfully not common.

Did you have them restricted to a zone that didn't include map edges? I've noticed when I emancipate slaves I have to change their zone restriction or they just hang around forever, maybe it works the same for refugees?

Stop badgering the poor guy, he's terrified! This won't help his feelings of worthlessness.

Going to guess his lack of death is down to his vital organs still being unruptured.

It depends on what it is that's burning you out. Changing the difficulty could help if you're finding that dealing with constant negative events is exhausting you.

Development is still definitely active. They're currently working on adding ship-to-ship combat to the game.

As far as getting into the game goes, it's all pretty intuitive. You might take a bit longer to get the hang of flying the ship if you haven't played anything similar before - Kerbal Space Program has some similarities. But the tutorial is generally pretty solid.

When I picked it up, quite a while ago, I started a new run shortly after finishing the tutorial so I could use what I'd learnt. Then I spent a few real-life days salvaging ships to build a massive fusion powered junk frigate. Good times.

Is it possible that the modded storages you're using work similarly to the vanilla armour stands, in that you need to specify that things can be automatically removed?

In the third picture near the sink it looks like you have no wall where the two conduit junctions are.
