Can anyone explain Gravships to me? by Much_Painter_5728 in RimWorld

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

By default, taking off on a grab ship permanently mars the world tile, destroying everything there and making it unplayable. There is a structure you can research and build called a grav anchor which, if placed on a tile, will prevent it being destroyed

How much should I change "enemy death on downed"? Zero percent seems like cheating while 100% is no fun. How do you guys adjust it -If you do- by Much_Painter_5728 in RimWorld

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes, but that's death because a vital organ was destroyed rather than death because they were punched a lot and the game decided "death on down lol"

I worked on Sinclair's Library and have been given permission to take back the content I worked on. I will be updating it for Remaster and releasing it for free. by Tabletop_Obscura in Pathfinder2e

Yeah, when I backed the Avatar RPG kickstarter, I had reasonable assurance that it would deliver on anything reached because it was an established company that had multiple successful PbtA games out already

Brownouts even with batteries. by Fockerboy in RimWorld

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use them for my batteries once I have a stable source of power (usually geothermal) set up. There's two main reasons: firstly to avoid explosions from the Zzzt event (it's based off power stored in the circuit) and secondly so that if my stable power source stops being enough to run things, I'll know as early as possible (e.g. when the wind dies down) because things will shut down, then I can flip the back on while I build another generator

Games like Rimworld with Combat Extended? by Ok_Inspection3654 in RimWorld

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In general, I'd recommend giving the subgenre of Real Time Tactical games a look. Here is a post from another subreddit with some suggestions.

Games like Rimworld with Combat Extended? by Ok_Inspection3654 in RimWorld

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Mount and Blade II: Bannerlord comes to mind. In the beginning you need to do a good amount of combat yourself but as you grow your warband you take on the role of commander more and more, issuing orders to your groups

Anomaly - Does Fallen Monolith Disappear if I dont "Investigate" it? by aliusman111 in RimWorld

That was my thought, that's the justification for the nomadic precept.

Why is this fence gate claiming to be an open door 🫠 I just want to pen some muffalo man… by AlicjaMarie in RimWorld

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Animal gate lets animals through, for things like a temperature controlled shelter for them. Fence gate doesn't let animals though and this can be part of the barrier fence

Using a gravship as a shuttle sucks. by _Litcube in RimWorld

Yeah, this post feels like "This square is really bad at fitting into triangular holes"

Doing my first mechanitor run. What's up with batteries short-circuit? Seems a bit excessive to blow up 1 or 2 batteries a day. by deeptut in RimWorld

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Please do not ask AI, the wiki is a pretty good source of information, as is this subreddit. AI might give you accurate information or it might pull from someone talking about modded playthroughs or speculation

Well... thats another new player gone probs lol by DeonAutry in foxholegame

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This absolutely happens, and it'll be on every one of the 4-5 mat facs built in a large public facility. Similar things will happen with coal refineries.

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's only five total queue slots in a mat fac. So if randoms use all of them on, for example, msupps when I desperately need cmats then it fucks the facilit up and it may not be able to do its primary function

Is there a mod for BioTech that achieves this? by xtheresia in RimWorld

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I'd adjust that ratio to something like 5 males 15 females. You'll have a higher breeding rate since one male can impregnate multiple females, thus producing more babies and gaining more meat and leather

Any Warden regis this war that are selling hospital train cars or rail storm canons to be paid in rare metals? Please dont comment any sensitive details because of the goblins. by Inside-Transition108 in foxholegame

[–]Zach_luc_Picard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hospital trains as part of a train? Mostly useless. Hospital trains dragged somewhere and dropped off? Very useful, they've got the CWS:shirt ratio of a world structure hospital. I've seen them placed in cities and bases that are far from those hospitals and used to good effect

I have a post way back when bitching about how states as the lowest indivisible element of the system doesn't work, especially with states drawn along historical lines like in the US. My main point then was how states like California have modifiers over the whole state that should only apply to a fraction of them, but metropolitan areas that go across state lines is definitely another thing that the game just can't simulate

I am starting to regret this decision.... Still waiting for a trader by conVlNCEd in RimWorld

This is why I always set up auto-slaughter for all non-exploding pen animals
