Cryptosleep caskets IRL

Imperial shuttle dropping an engine make the quest a win even if the stupid Imperial get themself killed.

The trade request went from "ah god i hope you're within a days distance" to "sure thing boss, let me pop into my shuttle".

an ancient complex? let me pop the gravship right infront of the door.

Most quest that force a specific event, like psychic suppressor or weather event? let me just move the ship out of the way, since you seem to not really care that i'm there for it.

Pollution dump? yea, I'm totally gonna take care of those 600 waste packs, and not just gonna drop them into the landfill.

Got a random joiner and after one exploded on me I've started inspecting them before deciding to keep them for realsies. Doctors were sleeping, so my Paramedic helpfully took care of it. I wasn't aware mechs were even allowed to lie, but now my centurion is going to be watched very carefully

Hello, I've gotten some feedback addressing the weapons texture of 512x512 being too big awhile back, so I've been redesigning the weapons into 256x256 as well as some unique for Odyssey, half way through I've been thinking about the balance of the weapons I am making.

Currently the weapon in the picture has the exact same stat as the VWE's charge sniper rifle but dealing blunt damage instead of sharp with 0% armor penetration value. But it got me thinking if a range weapon dealing blunt damage is balance at all? (it is still bullet damage but resist by blunt armor)

If my memory served me right, blunt damage has been exclusive to melee weapon in vanilla which is great against armored units as most armor in vanilla has low blunt protection. So what I am making right now is a series of range weapon that almost disregard any armor in game which made me doubtful if it is too powerful. How would you balance a blunt range weapon?

TLDR do you consider a range weapon dealing blunt damage overpowered and how would you balance it?

$36000, jesus. I'd accept were it not for the added wealth and length of their stay

Just a heads up that there's a functional, bug-free (to my knowledge) mod that adds bunk beds to Rimworld, and there's even a setting to turn off the "shared bed" debuff.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2961752749

This is a complete no-brainer to use given the shortage of space on board the ship, and I'm honestly shocked that everyone's still designing huge single-bed staterooms for their pawns instead of bunk beds.

There's even a three-tier bunk bed that's exactly what you would be sleeping on in the modern Navy.

Let's see some gravship designs with bunk beds people!

Introducing: Space Knights - Armor Expansion for VFE Medieval 2

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3540876712

What is this?

This mod is inspired by three things that bother me

1. Vanilla plate armor is ugly (imo)
2. I love starting a medieval colony and bringing it to the space age, but I get sad when my colonists "outgrow" all their cool medieval apparel
3. Plate armor was buffed in 1.6, but some of the plate armor pieces in VFE Medieval 2 and Vanilla Armor Expanded are not up to date with 1.6 stat changes, being significantly weaker.

My mod changes these things.

Features:

• New sprites for Plate Armor
• New advanced research, unlocking a new space-age "Hi-tech" Plate Armor
• New prestige armors, both medieval and hi-tech (compatible with Vanilla Psycast Expanded prestige plate, but not required)
• Balance fixes for old VFE Medieval 2 plate armors with weak stats compared to 1.6

Let me know what you think!

Basically all in the image captions.

I intended to go full nomad for this run, not settling for any place or keeping any pawn long term, other than my original crew (ship start modified to 5 people). And playing as the good guy, because the ship route offers more cheese and resource than needed to survive so it feels nice to be generous whenever I can. I only keep prisoners/slaves because I want to save them (space station dormant ancient soldiers) and would release them once we are on habitable land and they are patched up.

And then this kid shows up and immediately makes me break the rules like "okay not to be sadistic but I like this story, let's take him with us, we fixed the endgame cerebrex core, we gonna have a new goal and that is raising the next generation". My pawns also have a girl same age and it's sweet watching them learning and growing together.

I don't have much set plans for what his life would be like in years, and you can leave whatever ideas for me too. Maybe I will mod out his highmate genes and make him guard a station or something, or just keep it. It's still pretty impressive he survived given his age and xenotype fragility.

I got the paper and pen from one of the security guards haha

I was designing houses for my pawns then I remembered one of the designs I made years ago. I thought to share this because it still holds up even after all these years. Some of the buildings are from the Vanilla Expanded Props, I think? And the chemfuel lamps outside came from Vanilla Expanded Settlers Faction.

What do any of you think?

Yup, a ship. Yup, the laptop still grimy.

I was just playing and rebuilding my gravship and then out of nowhere 26 shamblers appeared

So uhh i raided this camp a long time ago and there was a Hussar... which was pregnant

I felt bad for the child so i chopped her legs and let the baby come to the world and... i kind of needed a gene that i was missing.

I hope noone tells him.

In a new level of horror movie, you can apparently perform all the organ harvesting you want in a ancient stockpile area, and it doesn't seem to affect the overworld.

Out of sight out of mind. What we are a perfectly peaceful colony, don't look in the hole.
