Rimworld Dev Tracker

There's an issue where furskin-specific beards can be manually assigned to non-furskin (i.e. non-yttakin). This may be that. It's getting fixed.

Thank you for playing and participating in the community - much appreciated!

I'm not sure there's much in the game that contradicts what you're saying.

RimWorld neanderthals can hunt, craft, use fire, and have complex spoken interactions. They can carry out rituals, bury the dead, hold and spread complex beliefs. They can form complex relationships with each other and with humans, who they can also interbreed with.

You talk about real neanderthals sewing, burying the dead ritualistically, doing art. RimWorld neanderthals do all this (in addition to building geothermal generators and interstellar spacecraft, FWIW).

None of this contradicts them being less intelligent than baseliners. There is a very broad spectrum of intelligence between a modern human and the cartoon notion of a proto-human who can only grunt (barely verbal) and swing a club.

If you IQ tested a population of neanderthals where would they score on average? Nobody really knows of course, but I don't think it would be 50, nor would it be 100. It'd be somewhere b...

All right all right, it's a bug, we'll fix. Thanks for the info!

Yeah, we released a hotfix for this issue a few hours after Biotech dropped, so either something was missed or OP has the old version.

I've asked the coders to check this.

We'll look at this and push a hotfix soon. Sorry about that.

They would I think, can't hurt to try.

There's some more info and the resolution reported in this comment.

To add context...

Steam recently changed their recommended non-USD prices. Biotech's prices are based on Steam's recommendations, but I reduced the prices below Steam's recommendations for Euros, Pounds, Canadian dollars, Russian Rubles, Polish Zloty and Hong Kong dollars.

Looks like there was a huge jump in the recommendations for Turkish Lira and Argentine Peso. I don't know much about these currencies or why this happened, but I've just put in a request to reduce them to something a bit more in line with our other products (at least for now). Just depends on when Valve can get to it (they usually start work in like an hour).

EDIT: I managed to get on the phone with Valve and adjusted 12 currencies downwards below their new recommendations, including Turkish Lira, Argentine Peso, Ukranian Hryvnia, Colombian Peso, Indonesian Rupiah, Indian Rupee, Kazakhstani Tenge, Phillipine Peso, Thai Baht, Uruguayan Peso, Vietnamese Dong, and South African Rand.

Website actually broke on release! Our webdev is working on fixing it right now. Thanks for waiting!

This way works well enough!

Love all you guys. Couldn't ask for a better community - really. There are more people to thank than I could list; modders, artists, writers, screenshotters, translators, testers, memers and jokesters, moderators, reviewers, ambassadors and players. You guys are just awesome.
