    This is amazing! I played Rimworld for a bit around 2017 or so but Oxygen Not Included already filled my needs for a colony survival game so Rimworld got put on the shelf. I was watching the streamer Grubby and Rimworld won his community weekly game vote. I remembered I owned it and watched a couple youtube vids and then this video got recommended to me. After watching it I've found new passion and have been playing for 4 days straight!

And both games have such an active modder community, that's really the cherry on the cake and gives every new game a fresh breeze ! ONI is for my engeneering soul, and Rimworld for the micro-management and the little randomness that happens in life to caracters that i get attached to. Enjoy :-D

Maybe on the next part you can get into more of the fine details of the story. I loved it when you went into the reasons two colonists fell in love. Just maybe more of the “hot dog got shot in the shoulder” or “Lee made fun of Hot dogs nose” or some crap like that.

    Idk if anyone has mentioned this but it’s better to just turn off your coolers and heaters then to dismantle them. Saves you components and time. Oh and if you put a wall between each turret then when they explode it won’t cause the neighbouring ones to have a chain reaction.

    I think I like the story aspect of the game plays.
    But as for switching out heater and air conditioner, you don't actually have to because if it reaches the temperature it wants, then it wont be in high operations anymore. In other words you can leave AC and heater on in the same room, throughout the year and it will kick on what it needs to, and kick off when it doesn't need to.

    A good tip for not losing as many men as you did, if a colonist is drafted, they can tend to a wounded person on the spot, while ineffective and slow, it can stop you from losing somebody.

    • @PixelRookieOfficial
      @PixelRookieOfficial  Před měsícem +1

      Thanks for sharing this incredibly valuable tip. This was originally recorded many years ago without any mods or expansions and while I was very new at the game and made lots of poor decisions, I learned afterwards that you had to do some janky stuff to make it work to tend to wounded pawns on the spot.
      Basically how it worked back then was that you had to create a sleeping spot beside them, make it a medical spot and then create a specific zone that only gave access to that spot, otherwise they would still carry the wounded pawn to a better medical bed. It was very clunky and I wasn't able to figure it out (I edited out all of the scrambling trying to get them to actually get them to make it work haha).
      It is much much easier to prevent this now and for future playthroughs, it will go much better haha.

    Were you using any mods here? That bit in the video where you dug through the other hill and "exposed" the other side? Did that expand the map? Or was it because it was all a mountain or something?
    And was the map size bigger than normal too?

      This is actually vanilla gameplay without any DLCs - just good ol fashioned classic Rimworld.
      I don’t remember what map size I picked, but you are only shown what is revealed to you. Because that other valley was completely blocked off by a mountain, it wasn’t shown since it was hidden. While I was strip mining, it opened up and revealed that area. Hope that helps!

    @spacelizard5001 Před 5 měsíci +2

    I really like the narrative style of the video! Narrating the game like a story is really entertaining.
    I just want to give a few tips real quick:
    1. Fertile soil is darker then normal soil, while stony soil appears to be gravely. Fertile soil grows crops 30% faster, while stony soil grows 30% slower, unless you're growing potatoes, in which both ends are less effective. Check the bottom left of the screen for more info about a tile.
    2. You can have multiple researchers. It'll effectively double your research speed, which is very important for getting gear for combat if you're playing on a high difficulty.
    3. Walls are the best cover, then sandbags, then barricades. You should try to always have your people behind walls, although this does take a lot of building and planning.
    4. You don't need to recruit every single colonist. Try to recruit only those that have the skills that you need or will need soon. For example, if a farmer died, try to recruit those with a high plants skill.
    5. If someone misses a shot, there's a chance that shot will hit another person within a 1x1 grid where they were aiming. So spreading out colonists is useful to avoid misses, and to avoid friendly fire. Friendly fire cannot happen with your own colonists within four tiles.
    6. Sterile tiles (steel tiles, silver tiles, and sterile tiles unlockable with research) increase research speed when placed inside research labs, decrease infection chance inside hospitals and reduce the chance of pawns cooking meals that give food poisoning when placed inside kitchens.
    7. As you're entering melee combat often with ranged units, you should know that ranged units can shoot while in melee, but not at enemies directly next to them. So, if pawns shoot raiders next to them instead of gun bashing those next to them, it'll clean up raids faster.
    Now for some more cheesy tips. These aren't fun for everyone but you may as well know you have the option:
    1. Colony wealth. So raids are based on how much total wealth you have, thus meaning being too rich means you get attacked too much. This means destroying expensive goods makes sense. However, to some people this is very much not fun, and can be mostly ignored unless you're on a 500% threat scale game. Keep it in mind if you're being attacked too much.
    2. Pawns cannot stand on sandbags, barricades, chunks and other objects like those. Basically, you can make your funnel more expensive by putting sandbags on the edge of walls so they can't use it as cover. This is getting into killbox territory (areas which exploit pathfinding and other Rimworld mechanics used to kill raiders very easily), which some players hate, and others love. Do whatever you find fun of course, but if you find minmaxing defenses fun, give it a try.
    3. Nutrient paste exists. I honestly hate it a lot, but some people swear by it, and for good reason. It is however much more efficient then cooking, and pawns eating it cannot get food poisoning. Useful if you don't have a good cook, don't have a lot of food, or don't care enough to cook meals.
    4. Setting work priorities in the work tab is very useful. Setting everyone's bed rest to a priority of "1" means that they'll always rest while they would be working to recover from injuries, or gain immunity from diseases faster. Lowering some priorities means less people will do less work of a specific type, but also that will mean a few people will do specifically more of one type of work, thus gaining more experience. For example, having only a few crafters will make the few more highly skilled, and thus produce higher quality items.
    I hope these help! Enjoy learning too much about a silly little game!
    Rimworld is one great game that has a very barebones tutorial. I'd recommend watching some other CZcamsrs if you want to learn even more. Knowing niche mechanics does come in handy.
    Have fun!
