    Based on my own observations, animals will actually feed themselves with whatever food is in their zone - including crops. If you set up an area specifically for the cows and set it to grow hay, then you should be able to keep the cows relatively healthy with minimal time usage. According to the numbers provided by the wiki (and assuming that I understood them correctly), 24 tiles of hay planted in rich soil will keep both cows fed. Mark a 6x4 zone in the fertile soil, set the cows to stay in that zone, and set the same area as a haygrass planting zone and the cows should do just fine. If you're willing to take more time in exchange for not using fertile soil on hay, then 29 tiles should do the trick. 7x5 animal area, with 7x4 and an extra tile as growing zone along with (if you're really worried about making sure they eat) the remaining 6 tiles within the animal area as a storage area for hay.

    Really happy to see you playing Rimworld, one of my favorite games. If you want tips then I've got a couple below. Looking forward to this series.
    The daily limit is a 20% modifier not a 120%, it limits how much you can learn each day of a certain skill. The burning passion for work buff is a positive mood boost while they are doing work the are passionate about. So whenever Lee does work he'll get the mood boost. Spike traps tend to not instakill pawns unless they are made of strong materials. If you want to use more traps, you'll want to funnel them into multiple traps. When an enemy pawn is down but not dead you can strip him to get the clothing without the tainted debuff on them. Pawns don't like wearing tainted stuff. For cooking you'll want to make cleaning a hier priority so when he finishes making food or butchering he will clean up to help minimize food poisoning.

    I've often thought this would be a fun idea, take someone who is bad at everything and make them good. I would recommend the mad skillz mod if you're going to do this though because once you get your skills over 10 they will decay if you don't keep up on them which is going to be hard to do with just one pawn. The mad skillz mod lets you drastically reduce or completely turn off skill decay which will allow you to hit 20 in all skills and not have to worry about them decaying back to 10

    Not sure if you know this trick for berries and other plants. set a grow zone over the berries or area and set it to “dont allow planting”. This way, anything that grows in that spot naturally gets harvested. Also works for trees. if you want a stable wood income set a large area like 100x100 with a stockpile shed in the middle.

    @Butterkin 4 роки тому +3

    First, I'd like to say that as someone who plays Rimworld, it will be interesting to see how you handle the game. I have about 550 hours in vanilla Rimworld so I have a few tips that I'd like to share with you after watching this episode.
    If you click on the Wildlife tab on your bottom row of buttons, you'll see a big list of wild animals currently alive within your tile of the world map. It's very useful to check it out every in-game day to see what might have wandered onto the map or if the animals on the list might be good targets for hunting. There is a % chance that an animal will retaliate after being hunted, luckily, you have a lot of animals on your map that you can freely hunt with Lee. This is also the only way to safely level up his shooting without him being put into danger during a real raid. You should review the % chances for each of the animals on your tile and choose which ones you want to hunt. I'm pretty confident that those gazelles have a 0% chance of retaliation, even in herds.
    I'd suggest that you craft a short bow at the crafting area that you put down, I'm not sure if that's the best way to grind your crafting skill or if you would even want to do that for this character. If your goal is to get him to level 20 in every skill then you would want to level up your crafting somehow. I've read that the best way is to put your crafter in a cold room and have them make cloth dusters at a manually powered hand tailor bench to maximize the amount of time they can spend grinding. The best tribalware that you could make for where you are in the game is if let's say, a megasloth was attacked by a bear or something and you finished off the winner by kiting it around with a short bow, you'd probably have access to some pretty good material for making tribalware. Material that I would rate just below thrumbofur and hyperweave.
    As others have mentioned, once you've gotten to a certain amount of XP within a day, you reach a point of diminishing returns and you should probably have your colonist work on a different skill after that. Rinse repeat, etc. That's the most efficient way to train up a colonist. Your most readily available means of grinding plants is to chop down tree's and harvest berry bushes. I'd harvest all of them right away so that you can get the maximum number of harvests from your map tile before winter time. If you zoom all the way out and double click a berry bush, you will select all berry bushes in your line of sight and you can harvesting them en masse this way.
    The gate to civilization in Rimworld really is freezers, you can't store any meaningful amount of food without them unless you plan on strictly creating pemmican and packaged survival meals. You should probably focus on 4 main skills for Lee, since he can't possibly do everything in just a single day. The most important skills for a starting colony I would say are in this order and this would also be the order I would train Lee in them:
    Construction: Being the first colonist, nearly every task and objective in the game is locked behind a production table you construct with this skill. All of the furniture which makes your colony look palatable, and makes your colonists comfortable comes from your constructor. Every meaningful thing is locked behind construction, in order to truly build and grow your colony or do anything you need to have a good constructor. A lot of progress is locked behind construction, generally speaking all research does is expand construction projects. To research in the first place you need to construct a research bench and then later, a better research bench. To supply your refrigerator with power, you must have a certain level in construction. This skill dictates your progress and growth.
    Cooking: Really, having at least level 8 or 10 in cooking is fundamental to your colonies survival because having food poisoning in the middle of combat, in the middle of the formative stages of your colony is incredibly crippling. You want to do your best to avoid having to deal with food poisoning on whatever Randy decides to throw at you, which could be anything and everything. Food poisoning at the wrong time could put you into an unwinnable situation.
    Mining: Mining determines the speed at which you can gather resources necessary for machines, weapons, armor and electricity. It opens the door to electricity and you'll need to mine to build some critical things. The mining skill also influences mining yield as well. Grinding mining is very simple and straightforward.
    Farming: Farming will determine yield and harvesting/sowing speed. It's important at the beginning because you want to get the most out of your starting crops for feeding your colony.
    I would focus on these skills in this order.

      @ambiguousamphibian  4 роки тому +1

      Butterkin Thanks for this really thorough analysis and overview! Fortunately a lot of it I'm pretty familiar with, though there's def some new stuff in there, and this really well organizes everything and crystallizes it - especially that wild animal workflow, and I was especially curious about gazelle chances of retaliation. Thanks for the confirmation on the freezers as well! I've frequently wondered if there was a faster way to get stability, though this is great confirmation. I think I'm going to grind construction on traps for added security, focus food for stability and aim at 8-10 cooking, then use either pemmican (researched) or start working toward freezers without giving up much stability, all the while having Lee intermittently seek out animals and other things as they become convenient. Love the idea of grinding plants with berries an trees for a sort of nomadic experience gain - wonder if this would be possible for an ascetic type of character who would be okay without much of a great bedroom...

    Also start training the cows soon. They're one of the few animals that need 0 skill to start training so, use them while you have them to get it up to levels where you can train whatever you need.
    Also might be a good idea to have the bull, once it's trained up, follow you wherever you go, so that you have a protector.

    It's the most basic of survival strategies and one that works exceptionally well. A corridor with traps, a turn at the end, and a (sturdy) door that allows you to bypass it.
    Walk thru the door, and close it. Stand in the corridor and wait for the attacker to come at you. Once the attacker is dead, open the door and carry on.
    The corridor insures they track over the trap. The turn means range attackers have to walk down it to get line of sight on you. The door allows you to avoid walking over the traps, which could trip. You standing at the end of the corridor acts as bait.
    Of course, in the long run there are far more complexities to that due to the AI... but in the beginning, even the most basic setup is golden.

      Once this screen is open click on the top left button (the one that says 'Def Type') and click 'Backstories'. Once youve done that another button should appear next to the 'Backstories' button called 'Backstories Def' proceed to click on that.
      Once youve done that, a hole assortment of backstories will be listed from A - Z.
