You are not able to rotate monuments, and per Tynan it is a deliberate design feature.

As grapplehoeker stated, Tynan has no interest in adding achievements as he feels it conflicts with the conceit of RimWorld and would force people to start playing in certain ways to achievement hunt. Even with the new quest systems, he deliberately made them all optional, you can ignore quests if that's how you want to play RimWorld.

Love it. Worth noting that what's visible on this chart is just the weekly cycle, you can see the impact of 1.1/Royalty on the 3-month chart most easily.

If I recall correctly, it was posted someplace that he wants you to try to break the game with as many mods as possible... so probably not yet. The best way to handle this, is to tell people to provide a mod list order, and the save that broken. It is probably the fastest way to get a bug fixed for him.

Just to chime in I have a 25GB log file from when Rimworld hung while exiting full of the same error.

C:\buildslave\unity\build\Modules/Audio/Public/sound/SoundChannel.cpp(393) : Error executing m_FMODChannel->stop() (The specified channel has been reused to play another sound. )

(Filename: C:\buildslave\unity\build\Modules/Audio/Public/sound/SoundChannel.h Line: 15)

I had to force close the game.

I zipped it if you want one for some reason.

Offer appreciated! We have two reports for now and will reply again if more is needed. I think it's enough (the logs don't carry much info anyway).

Looks like an amazing occasion for an antigrain warhead or orbital bombardment!

Thanks. I've heard of this error before but I thought it wasn't us; with this info it seems it may be something we can actually address though. Appreciated u/soshp and u/kitsune_no_chi

This update includes various new features, adjustments and bug fixes.

EDIT: It's been released to everyone!

Thanks to everyone who has been contributing unstable build feedback in official unstable build testing Discord server[discord.gg]

Change list:

- Implemented renounce title button on pawn bio tab. You can now have your royal colonists renounce their title if you wish.
- Implement mech shield generator charge cycle. Shields now go down for a random day every 10 days, if you're willing to wait.
- Mech cluster condition causers and mortars now sometimes take several days to initiate threatening the colony. This gives more time to prepare and attack the cluster.
- We now generate random rewards only up to 5500$, the rest will go into market value fillers like gold, plasteel, and uranium. ... Read more

Hi I know this threat is somewhat old already but do you have any updates on this supposed bug? Playing on permadeath and contemplating to remove the clusters with dev mode to roughly the same level of balancing as the reworks. Either way thanks for the content, the rest of the dlc is f**king amazing

I rebalanced them heavily early last week.

Basically, yeah.

Maybe u/TynanSylvester should look into their being no raid music in vanilla.

That's odd, I've been hearing it on streams as usual.

I've been collecting a massive amount of feedback from lots of sources (as always) and looking for themes. A lot of things tend to come up over time that aren't really perceptible at smaller-scale testing. But with enough people and time sometimes you see the same theme pop up repeatedly; this seems to be one of those.

Without promising anything since I haven't dug into the design in detail (hard to tell where there might be blocking design issues with changing it), we might do something about this as part of the content add-on.

Anyway, I appreciate the feedback.

The best chance for change is going with what u/A_Sham said and call them "douchebag points". It is a catchy name and pretty much sums up the issue.

Real nobles used to descend upon estates. Their length of stay often depended on how much they wanted to financially ruin said estate. They would hunt out all the deer etc.

That would make an interesting aspect to the game, where if you want to trade with nobles and use powers, then you have to deal with them when they arrive and eat you out of house and home.

Decrees and quests can be a constant game of gaining and losing faction relation points depending on accepting/refusing/completing and failing them.

As has been mentioned elsewhere, having a harvest decree at the end of autumn when you haven't even planted said crop is just dumb. You just end up with a -15 debuff for about 2 seasons. Loss of a faction point per day or some such would be better.

I too am at the point ...

FWIW, we fixed this some days ago.

"Making a monument and then instantly destroying it the moment it says: "Quest Complete" also feels really weird. " - Yeah, I agree.

The fact that they come way more frequently than advertised is a bug that Tynan is aware of

Not a bug, just unclear. The system cut time up in 18 hour chunks and placed a threat in each chunk randomly, so with bad luck you could have two threats close together. It was designed this way to create some variation but it turns out that the "approximately every 18 hours" reads more as "exactly every 18 hours" so we changed it to match expectation several days ago. I already designed a rework to how these threats are sequenced, but it'll take more time before that is implemented.
