Things would be easier if we had a real doctor. And a decent negotiatior (Social skill). Both Ryan and Sparkles are pretty easy to recruit (30 and 42 difficulties). If Azira will somehow save Sparkles, she will be a decent addition to the Kolony.
Or maybe it's just a total waste of food and meds, as Kalin says.
wait out the infection. much like eye replacement, the body knows how to heal itself. medicine or surgery is not required for simple problems such as this.
But carving sparkles up could be good practice for Azira. Let him cut pieces off the prisoners so he'll know how not to fuck up once it's Kalin under his knife
Is that seriously part of the game or did you write that in to make her more Codex approved?
Anyway, I for one think we should try to NOT sabotage the KommuKolony for a change. We are already stuck with a colony of 3, only 1,5 of them productive and 2 extra mouths to feed. On top of having pissed off everyone on the planet by now.
And it won't be long until somefag says: "we need to kill the caravan so we have meat for the winter".
Nah, treat the infection without having Azira display his lack of skill and recruit them afterwards. They pay back what they ate by working.
You don't need to bury the bodies, just move them out of sight and/or to your feeding pens if you have tame animals that eat corpses. Try to do all this in the first night after a raid so that everyone can sleep off the mood penalty for the next day.
As others have said, they take care of joy themselves on the default routine if you don't micromanage every step they take.
If they complain about ugliness, beauty is the issue. Stone tiles only add a modest +2 per tile and lighting adds nothing (Though a dark environment is a -3 mood penalty of its own) and so won't do much for a room overall. During the early game, your best option is typically to focus on getting high quality furniture as it's pretty easy to build up a high rank construction worker.
That's my current dining room. That 112 beauty chair is a legendary dining chair, which is a bit short of the 137 from the excellent small limestone sculpture. Due to the dirtiness, the room's only sitting at 14.97 beauty, which I believe is just shy of crossing into "very beautiful" territory. While the furniture might lag behind a bit in beauty, on top of the fact developing a strong construction colonist doesn't require you to dedicate someone to non-vital trade, there's also the side benefit of the chair being extremely comfortable, which helps keep the mood bonus for comfort around longer.
Feeling cramped is function of *both* the room size and the number of people in the room. This is why the mood debuff is so bad in the LP.
Oh and before we start this important operation to save our beloved sparkles i recommend using Ryan as a target practice for our doctor. It's time for him to give back to motherland what he owes.
The Leg seems fine its in minor and well the kidney is not in extreme just yet, normally i would say just cut the kidney you only need one, then again with Aziras low doctoring....hope the RNG favors you.
Jesus Christ Grimwulf i don't think you emphasized how much damage those things can take,
See that gap in the wall from the rock next to the pede? Mulched during the fight, all those shots? Not a single one hit the sensors or anything vital i think i literally just mulched it to death, yes i know my turrets will blow everyone up if even one goes off but that's what the guy with the shield is for on permanent repair duty, i don't want to sacrifice fire power atm for safety, i have enough metal to rebuild if i lose them anyway and as i expand/regain manpower from the high of like 6 i was at to the 3 i have now infection with no medication be bad yo especially when your doctor gets a major one in their chest.
Also i think Pedes can take cover it certainly seemed to be sticking to the wall and using it as cover.
I find Random Randy is a lot more fun than the others i get raiders who try to tunnel around i get random pede drops and multiple raids one after another, quite fun.
Here is one annoyance i have with the game that i hope is fixed if there is a fire animals will freak the fuck out and ignore zones as will colonists if you forget to turn off fire fight, very very fucking annoying i had 10 animals i now have a single muffalo left and a camel, they all ran out into a scyther drop pod when a fire started, on the OTHER SIDE OF THE WALL NEAR THE MECHS.
Gotta appreciate Azira for pwning the 'pedes. Much respect.
Imagine that caravan passing by the battlefield with wtf faces, hur hur hur.
HAHA, oh wow. I'm genuinely having fun commanding this place. Why are you still awake, Kalin?
Maybe I should sleep with the prisoners...
15th of Fall, 5500
*yawns* The caravan has arrived. I'll try to strike some bargains, but no promises.
Now that's a big caravan.
They sell all kinds of expensive exotics. They buy clothing and trinkets.
We could really use some of these. Especially bionics.
An eye for Kalin.
A joywire for Grimwulf.
But we can't afford it. I'm not a damn trader. If only Ryan, that pain in the ass, would join the Kolony, he could negotiate a discount.
Oh, well. I sold 'em some useless rags. Wanted to sell mechanoid artefacts, but the price...
Best to leave it alone until we aquire a solid trader in our ranks.
Now. The operation...
Good morning.
*coughs* Y-you.
Her wounds are healing really fast, doctor Azira. I'm sure she will make it.
That kidney needs to go.
She still has time! Let's wait and see if it's really necessary!
I came here to save your life, Azira. Just like Nelson. And Lillith.
And I'm saving yours right now. Be quiet.
You shot me. You tortured me. And now you are about to kill me.
Shh.
You think Nelson would be proud of you right now? *coughs* I know that he... would be proud of... me. *faints*
Stay with me.
*whispers* Make things right, doctor.
Shut up, Ryan.
You owe it to your brother. To yourself.
Come on... Come on... Fuck. FUUUUUCK!!!
It had to be done, good doctor. This is justice.
I... failed.
No. You've killed her. It's not about your medical skills, you just wanted Sparkles dead. Rejoice!
This is not what I wanted.
Is it?
Grimwulf told me that people die for no reason every day. That there is no point in thinking about the dead. That we should only think about ourselves.
I'm sorry, Nelson.
Rest in peace, Sparkles.
Later this morning.
Hey, Grim. About those traders.
What about them?
We can't afford their merchandise. I tried to ask for a discount, but it's like asking a shark for a blowjob.
Shit, shit! *pssshh* KALIN, we have a situation! Grimwulf has gone mental again!
*psshhh* No worries, me and Peacekeeper will take care of him. *whistles a tune* Space cops, space cops. Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?
FACE THE WRATH OF THE WORKING CLASS!!!
REVOLUTIOO--
*clubs Grimwulf from behind*
Hhrrrggh... Et tu?
Attention, citizens and tourists! The situation is under control! Nothing to see here! Move along.
Death to capitalists! Glory to reds!
Alright, you are coming with me. No mr. good cop for you.
*psshhh* Kalin, is it over? How's Grim?
*pshh* He'll be fine. Where were you anyway?
... Busy.
I'll tend to Grimwulf's injuries myself this time. You grab his gun and hide it somewhere.
On it.
I dindu nuthing! Let me go!
Fuck's sake, Grimwulf. You realize you're insane, right? If only you wasn't the only one capable of cooking and building, I swear...
Let's not forget the gud looks.
I'm obviously the most attractive heartbreaker of this colony.
Nu. I am the Kommie King. But you can be the pigtail princess, if you wa-- OH FUCK, what is wrong with you?!
Later that day.
I feel like Indiana Jones. In space!
Shieeet. Not the snow. Not now.
*psshhh* Azira! Since mad-ass Grimwulf is taking a fucking break, you and I need to do all the scavenging by ourselves. This might be our very last chance. Azira? Respond, damn you. Fuck!
A bit later.
Azira, you faggot. MOVE, grab something valuable and drag it here. I saw a handgun in cryo facility, it should fetch a nice price.
Yeah... yeah.
Maybe Ryan was right. Maybe I am that kind of person. The one who tortures and murders people for revenge.
You've killed her. It's not about your medical skills, you just wanted Sparkles dead.
Azira? Oh, for fuck's sake.
This was my first surgery. What was I thinking? Did I want her to die?
Just kill me, you mad fuck!
Azira, what do you think you're doing? Actually, forget it. I don't care. This whole colony is a fucking nuthouse, and I'm the only warden around. *sigh*
If you want the pain to go away, you have to make things right. You owe it to your brother.
You think Nelson would be proud of you right now?
So. The snowfall has finally began.
Aye.
We haven't done shit to prepare for Winter. Hell, those centipedes were at least protecting the colony somewhat - look at us now. Just three guys with shit guns.
One with a club.
Speaking of which, you could go a bit easier on me. Have some respect for your elders.
I could, but where is the fun in that?
Asshole. Where is Azira, by the way?
Oh, you know. Just chillin'.
So you basically crashed the ship, killing god knows how many people on board, just because you were looking for the nearest bar?!
*psshh* Azira, get your butt over here! We kinda need you.
I want you to build your own home on this planet, Azira.
*psshh* On my way.
Later that night.
It's gonna get colder, Ryan.
Thank you for the fire, mr. Kalin.
It's the last one. Either you join the Kolony, or become a snowman. I don't care.
I will think about it. Be careful near doctor Azira. As a professional empath, I can confirm that he is highly unstable.
Aren't we all?
He butchered the poor girl right in front of me, laughing madly all the way. This scene will haunt me 'til the rest of my life.
So what? Grimwulf attacked a damn caravan today. Why? Because they didn't provide a discount. But as long as I have this *taps the handle of Peacekeeper*, I can deal with any kind of unrest and disorder.
You sound confident. I hope you have what it takes to survive the Winter, mr. Kalin.
the drama is out of this world. really emotional, gut-wrenching stuff. will these three noble colonists survive the winter? can they continue to handle what this planet throws their way? I personally can't wait to find out. by gawd what a story.
Here is one annoyance i have with the game that i hope is fixed if there is a fire animals will freak the fuck out and ignore zones as will colonists if you forget to turn off fire fight, very very fucking annoying
You probably did something wrong with zone assignment. Colonists never attempt to extinguish fire outside of your Home Zone (blue colour). Animals avoid fire to the best of their ability and speed, but sometimes the fire just spreads faster than, say, a muffalo walks away from it.
Animals aren't supposed to be smart. Try training obedience - it helps a lot. Assign your pets to a non-combat colonist. When you drag him, all assigned animals will follow him closely. Very convinient if you want to hide/move away your beasties.
