      FTL travel is likely to be possible after the invention of whatever power source comes after Fusion. I doubt NONE of the theories are correct (Wormhole, Alcubierre, Zero point, ect). The main arguments I see against them are from people who haven't looked into the concept and say "muh conservation of energy and relativity" when each one addresses it, though usually with some questionable physics nonetheless

    It honestly amazes me how lore rich rimworld is for a game. Like this would make an amazing TV show for any of the worlds you are shown. They give alot of jumping off points in their cannon for you to think and speculate about how things are. You can really get lost thinking about the lives of various peoples. I think you did a great job summarizing all of this!

      @@unavela hell yeah, while the lore is quite cool its just an addition, leaving the players with only their imagination as lore is great, rimworld is an storytelling game it should leave the players to pick their own lore.
      Want a planet ravaged by a tremendous war that happened in the past? do it.
      Want a very populated world with industrial tech civillizations? yup.
      Want an Dense Hostile jungle world where the enviromment forced the nations to adapt? also yes.
      It shouldn't have a lore since you are playing on an isolated world, yes you can play in the same seed, but you can edit maybe after the events of the previous playtrough.
      the lore of Rimworld is your playtrough, Tynan can write bits of lore here and there but i don't think he will make the game so linked to the lore.

      Because maintaining morale in this game is a game of inches. All the little annoyances build up over time and can cause a character (or several) to have an emotional breakdown, disobey orders, fight your other people, break stuff, or try to abandon your colony. Very dangerous.
      That's why you mitigate this by gradually introducing small comforts (their own bedrooms, tables to eat at, chairs to sit on, chess tables, horseshoe pins etc) to ease their suffering.
      And you give them greater, more expensive comforts (decent bedrooms, beautiful things in every room, a nice rec room / dining room combo, comfy armchairs in front of their work benches, TV, mild recreational consumables like smokeleaf, chocolate, beer, psychite tea) to mitigate morale issues later on.
