Rimworld Dev Tracker

Hello everyone!

Just a quick request: There's been an issue that's popped up in 1.5 that some people have noticed their 'name-in-game' has gone missing. If it's happened to you, please give your name so we can check on it. We're not exactly sure what happened, but we're working on fixing it as soon as possible!

You can leave it in a comment here or on the post in the Ludeon forums[ludeon.com], or PM me as Sneaks on Discord in either the Development s... Read more

It's crafted in the Bioferrite Shaper, which you unlock through Anomaly research

Teeeechncally yes, but important things will be missing. Better to start a new colony.

Originally posted by Karacas: When I click on the first link I get the message "This invitation link is invalid or expired" I'm guessing that's not supposed to happen?

Ah heck sorry about that, try again!

Hello, Sneaks here, Lead Tester for Ludeon Studios. 1.5 has released, along with Anomaly! This is a good time to remind you of our RimWorld Official Development Discord: https://discord.gg/f3a5UHRXVA

Please post any bugs/issues you have on the discord. This way we can consolidate the information in one place instead of scattering threads over the subreddit.

We have two channels on the server for active development. Please put feedback and general conversation about the update in the #unstable-build, and bug reports on the #bug-reports forum. Please make sure to label if your version before posting a bug, and if you are using mods.

When making a bug report, think about these things:

What the circumstances were
What you did
What happened
What you expected to happen

If you are interested in testing, I ask ... Read more

Ghouls are like any other pawns, in that their effectiveness is based on their skill. If you randomize a ghoul with crappy melee or crappy traits, they'll be bad at fighting. If you roll one with high melee and good traits (like tough or nimble), you'll have a good fighter.

You can mix and match however you want. They try to minimize the cross-DLC reliability, so you can have them in any configuration without issue. At most it'll be something like, if you have Ideology and Biotech, you could have a colony that worships Sangus with the Bloodfeeder meme, but without Biotech, that meme just doesn't show up.

But they all work together nicely, and are intentionally designed that way with thorough testing.

Bold of you to assume people look to see what topics are already posted.

Sorry, we're working on it.

Sorry guys, just a hiccup in our update process. It's fixed now, Anomaly will give Anomaly. Re-download please!

Hello, everyone! I've been around for a while on the RimWorld Reddit and Discord, where I've been moderating for years, but until now, I hadn't stuck my head into the discussion boards very often. So if you're from one of the other two places, you'll know me as Sneaks, or OneTrueSneaks.

It's sad to see lovely Phea step down, as I've truly enjoyed working with her over the years. But I'm honored to be given the role, and hope I do it proud. Thank you, and I'll see you around!

Hello colonists!

I've been Test Lead and Community Manager for Ludeon since 2020 and it was a great experience. Before that, I was a volunteer tester before that since November 2013 (yes, only a month after the original Kickstarter). Well over a decade and thousands of hours of playtime, it's time to move on.

What does this mean for you all? Probably not much. I'm just some rando online! I will be replaced by someonesneaky, though possibly better known now as Sneaks. She has been a moderator on the unofficial Discord server and the official subreddit for years now, dabbles here and there at modding, and are generally good people. They have tons of experience moderating and being an admin for forums. Everyone give a warm welcome to the new Community Manager of Ludeon!

Our moderators have not changed, the staff at the moment is Harry (an internal tester for DLC releases), Diana Winters (mod author of the adorable Orassans), and ☢Doomdrvk☢ (an unofficial D... Read more

If you mean the tip of the tail, that's an issue with the modder's textures. I'd suggest going to the mod discussions, and letting the author know about it.

DLC is by no means required.

My suggestion: Try vanilla for a while. Get used to the gameplay and mechanics, you'll have enough to deal with in that Play until you think, 'hey, I wonder if there's a mod that will let me do X'. I can guarantee there will be.

Start with quality of life things, when you get into modding. You don't want to get into something that rewrites something in base game before you know how the base game does things.

The DLC add different things depending on which is your preferred playstyle.

Royalty - adds the Imperial faction. Focuses on faction reputation, quests, psycasting (which is basically magic-but-technology). If you want combat and questing, pick this one.

Ideology - Adds the Ideolegion system, basically beliefs / religions. Focuses on rituals, ideological differences. If you're wanting roleplay, pick this one.

Biotech - Control mechs, play with genetics, have kids. Adds different xenotypes (su... Read more

No, it's not abandoned.

they cried to steam to censore bad reviews, when i try to send a bad review, it just say 'there was a mistake when trying to send review' whatever i do, so now we know that the overly positif review is like gear 5 on xbox, bots and censoring XD

No, they don't censor bad reviews. Errors are on your end.
