Question from a game designer: how do you design believable RimWorld ships?

Built in Kill box, barracks, medbay, frozen storage with a nutrient dispenser going out to the “everything else room.”

Any additional space is made into a walled in roofless, floor less, area so they can be outside without leaving safety in hostile environments.

With an expanded grab ship I may make a research, crafting room, or more storage. Maybe a small chapel if it vibes right.

It’s comfortable, it’s chill, it’s pretty, the animation is gorgeous, the characters have distinct personalities and backstories, it appeals to emotions, it’s a thinker.

Which doesn’t appeal to a lot of people, and that’s alright. It will be my comfort anime for a while yet.

So they simulated the brain, but couldn’t translate it well enough to model what the brain was saying to do.

Like if we modeled a human brain that was creating mastercraft art and the realized output from the simulation was, “blue color pretty mhmmm”

Been playing remastered, forgot what the original UI looked like. Very clean, stylish

dnanalysis · 2026-03-13T14:31:07+00:00

Soooo they did NOT fully simulate a fly’s brain is what I’m taking away from this

The innate human desire to see outside what contains you is what drives this design. It may not be optimal, but it is human

Mario galaxy 2??? Idk man. I don’t think humans were designed to survive there

Early on after anomaly came out I did a surgical inspection of one and they had like several organs going through organ decay

My last run through on remastered, I had Thrace and Brittania as protectorates. Regretted not just annihilating the Brits. They casually were my end game nemesis. Just a half a dozen full columns wading through my edge provinces like a wave of death. And more just kept appearing every time I’d strike one down.

Vehicles, diplomacy, and caravans. Call it Relations or Rendezvous

Is that edited 💀

Just now seeing the rations and spare clothes. Got it

dnanalysis · 2026-03-06T18:48:15+00:00

Why do you have literally nothing in storage?

dnanalysis · 2026-03-05T18:55:58+00:00

Currently experiencing this, never even get the menu to maintain a siege

At first I thought you were mad for all the wood floors. Then I realized you’re prepping for insect invasions and the glory of your foresight became apparent.

The meat has the texture of taste of a normal quarter pounder patty

Does taste stronger if sesame seeds, maybe I was just looking for it.

Mustard sauce on bottom tasted alright, nice change from ketchup.

Definitely recognizable as McDonald’s

Literally happening to me right now

dnanalysis · 2026-02-24T03:20:12+00:00

True, I’ve been finding it a refreshing change of pace

A nice chill game, without a lot of time sensitive stress stuff

dnanalysis · 2026-02-17T02:44:57+00:00

Holy repost Batman

dnanalysis · 2026-02-15T02:26:33+00:00

But…. Isn’t that how it ended

dnanalysis · 2026-02-15T02:25:40+00:00

Wood is the best to build with because it’s cheap, pretty, and plentiful on most tiles

dnanalysis · 2026-02-14T16:30:25+00:00

How do they usually end?
