  • ** Mod list below ** I've been checking out a lot of new Rimworld mods lately, largely based on what I've seen from others, your recommendations, and some things I found in the workshop. Here's just a few that I've been trying out lately.
    Didn't quite get to every single mod, though I exported it as a string in case you want to see a more complete list: these are some seriously great works by these creators, and I hope you go check them out if you haven't already!

    If you haven't already, go check out the modlists by trmplays, Loreplays, Kokoplays, Yeti's, Roll1D2Games, and Quarantine Games's and Barky's mod showcase videos. Those were the ones I watched while getting ideas for what to include, though a lot of other fine mod videos exist out there. I'm def not the best at modding or explaining what each one does - I'm just honestly really interested in these mods and how they make the game feel new to me again. I grateful for any knowledge of mod conflicts or other ones you might share with me, as usually that helps me explain it better in future videos. Haven't been in the modding world in awhile tho, so hopefully I did at least a little justice to these great mods! There's also a bunch I didn't include because they add a completely different facet to the game, like SOS and Hospitality, though those are fine too! This is not an exclusive list by any means. And if I haven't said it already, thanks to all the amazing people who mod the game and provide fun experiences for everyone!

      I am a programmer. I have done some Rimworld mods. If you want you can send me your list of mods and your error logs and I will go through them for you to see what the errors are. Some of them will never affect you, some make it so things in the mod just don't show up in the game, and some will cause random crashes.

    Along the lines of careful raiders, "Sometimes raids go wrong" adds an element of variety to raider spawns, as the name suggests, raids can go wrong for them in a multitude of ways, my personal favorite is when the raiders spawn in, alongside a hostile bear that attacks them, but there are plenty other events in a similar vein.

      For me it mostly tends to spawn 2 raids from oposite factions at once, which can be lethal if handled poorly (ultra insect hive + an army of centipedes? what could go wrong amirite?), but is pretty fun because it adds more risk and reward

    So I was laying in my bed watching this video. and when he mentioned what "common sense" did I litterally sprung up and leapt at my computer to install it because food poisoning from dirty kitchen is my #2 problem for my current colony. #1 is that my storyteller is obsessed with cats and I keep getting cat related events, like 10 cats just joined your colony or 7 man-hunting cats have appeared and one of your colonists has been clawed almost to death.

    I have a mod suggestion for you! Check out the Megafauna mod it adds some larger extinct animals (some very useful but need high taming skill and eat a lot). Some are really useful as battle mounts and others can be super useful with carrying stuff in caravans! They also look like they belong in the vanilla game so to me it's an absolute must!

    Before you invest too much time into a series with androids, you need to know that they are horrendously unbalanced in terms of colony wealth. I've tried this before, and with just 3 t1 Androids and normal Crashlanded scenario beginning stuff, I was getting space pirate raids within a season on the middle difficulty. You may not think that's insane, but when you just have 4-6 wooden buildings, a bolt-action rifle and almost no security buildings, a tripple-rocket launcher is quite difficult to handle, so do be careful.

      i mean, they ARE op themselves, so you get bigger raids to compensate
      i personally have managed pretty well even without kill boxes
      remember that space pirates can come at any point (SPECIALLY with randy) but their size and equipment varies per wealth, i once got a single super soldier with a charge rifle as the initial raid, but my 3 colonists could kill it quickly with proper usage of cover and flanking

      Yeah maybe don't do that ;-)
      I'd recommend a few common sense ones (all hail the While You're Up) that made you go "yes zomg that should be in vanilla!!1!" let's say 5 max, any vanilla extended, (1x1 tables ftw, also the animal ones), and maybe 2 or 3 others. I like the fishing one a lot. Harmony and such don't count because they don't change anything themselves.
      Use Rimhud and other user interface ones to your liking. I do recommend at least Rimhud. Maybe limit yourself on others at first so you don't get lost in all the new UI.
      Oh and special mention to Giddy up. Because why the F can't I ride an elephant?

    Great video, that windows mod looks really cool. The Rimcuisine 2 mods and the Vanilla Expanded Cooking/VEPlants mods play nice together and are fun for roleplay playthroughs. There's a drugs add-on for Rimcuisine 2 that lets you make painkillers even from neolithic beginnings, as well as brewing add-ons that are pretty fun.
    Also Dress Patients changed my life, it should just be a base game thing but it lets you dress downed pawns - like stripped wounded prisoners - and gets rid of easy mood debuffs by just putting some fucking pants on them. Like you do with IRL bedridden people. lol

    I'm definitely interested in mods that make the colonist behavior actually make more sense. The work mod is interesting too because I would like to prioritize different crafting stations that use the same skills/job duties.
    Have you ever done a play through where you make it to the other side of the map where the quest is for the off world ship at the beginning of the game? Might be a different objective to try.

    SNAP OUT AND MEDICAL TAB ARE SO FLIPPIN USEFUL! I tried them once and NEVER went back. And when I thought 'eh I don't use it much' and took it out, I realized just how useful it is. It tells you who's bleeding and how badly, pain levels, each stat, if they can self-tend, and apparently lets you set surgeries, but I haven't figured that bit out yet. I use it after raids to tell who needs to be treated first and who can take a backseat and when I'm making bionics to quickly tell who's missing parts so I can make the proper bionics.

    25:27 I don't really know about this one but I think when I was playing not very modded gameplay with ZombieLand, the blood that was coming out of them was actually cleaning out itself after a rain rather than staying. I don't know if this was because of any mod's option or because it may disappear after some time, but if it's not in vanilla game then I think it's good that somebody added it. I still think filth should disappear much quicker.

  • @PhrozenFox

    Thanks a ton for this video. I mod a lot of the games I play, and I've already modded Rimworld a fair bit, but it's difficult to find those needles in the haystacks that is the modding community for Rimworld.
    You have very similar tastes for the types of mods I like for Rimworld and you've even inspired me to shirk my usual strategy to just build a large colony until I get bored and actually experiment with what Tynan insists is not simply a game you play to win, but a story simulator.
    The first thing I'm going to do is use that one dev tool option to spawn in a premade colony (bunch of pawns, clothes, weapons, workbenches, etc, but no walls or organization) on Randy Random "losing is fun" and just see what happens.
    I'm not sure if you'll like this game, but the modding scene and ease is similar, plus the people who like Rimworld seem to like it; try out Starsector. It may be a fun series for your channel.

    I'm gonna have to live vicariously through you and your Rimworld playthroughs as I don't have the time to play video games lately :(
    I am excited for this video as it reminded me of a lot of the QOL mods I used to use in the game, but had to uninstall a lot because of incompatibility due to the 1.1 update. I'm glad that more mods have been updated because I've missed some of these mods! A warning with Hunt For Me, though. I had to uninstall it because my colonists pets kept getting killed trying to hunt small animals. If you like the smaller animals and don't want to just use them as food, be sure to keep them in a safe area or a hare will be the death of fluffy. I actually started using Achtung! because of your last Rimworld colony! I love being able to line up my colonists!
    Rainbeau's fishing mod is my favourite fishing mod. It can be a little OP because you get a lot of small fish and it's basically an infinite food source, but I love that it adds new recipes that give your colonists a mood boost similar to fine or lavish meals. I try to balance it out by only using the shellfish traps but it's one of my faves! It's definitely my fave fishing mod, it seems a little boring to me that other fishing mods don't add extra recipes. Rainbeau doesn't update the mods themselves anymore, but they have been getting fan updates so it's really exciting! Trading Spot is another really nice one that allows you to choose where you want traders to go. It's nice because, if you've designated other parts of the map as Home area (for example, if you use a growing zone to automatically harvest ambrosia), traders will gather at any home area and it's nice to have them gather right next to your base. I also recommend More Trade Ships because I always feel like there aren't enough traders after I built the trade beacon. Animal Food Restrictions is nice because I'd rather animals eat raw food rather than eating my nice meals. Partially Passable Wind Turbines is nice and very self explanatory. Let's Trade! is fun as t just ads new types of traders, makes it nice if you just want to sell animal skins or building supplies. Blighted Alert is nice as it just adds a notice on the side, similar to the one that shows the weather or if you have toxic fallout, so you know that you have blighted plants, but it might be unnecessary if you have the mod that allows you to cut blighted plants automatically. I love mods that add fences, like Gloomy Furniture or Fences and Floors (or fences and no floors, same thing as previous but just fences), as it seems fairly natural to have in the game. It's nice to have fenced in fields so your animals can roam free and not eat your crops, and, for me, I like it a bit better rather than just setting allowed areas. It makes it nice so wild animals can't eat your crops.

    2 Grenadiers (these guys get regular rifles but switching to grenades make them so good against mechanoids.)

    Fluffy Breakdowns has been one of my highest priority mods from the moment it was created. Equipment maintenance is one of those things I just cannot accept as a pure random event. Switching breakdowns from a random event to a consequence of equipment condition was perfect, and saves so many headaches when it comes to budgeting components.
