Barring a few minor upgrades I think we are close to the final form of out raft. I might want to install some sprinkler systems and automated desalination but I think that is about it. We are pretty much coasting at this point and it's time to start hammering out the story line.
Lots of dirt cooking going on, I get faster at it as I go along. Have some ideas about how to make it faster and more efficient going forward. Quick petroleum boiler fix.... again. Throw together a sloppy heat deletion device to cool down the new sleet wheat farm. We get to use super coolant and some visco gel airlocks. By video's end we have 126 sleet wheat and 63 water weed all growing wild. Which is more than enough to support over 50 dupes on burgers assuming we have the meat for it, which we do as we are currently living on BBQ. I have messed up the spacing on the farm tiles, I could had had the floors 4 tiles apart instead of 5 and still got it to work. Check out the Brothgar video below for more details on how/why/when pips will plant.

That wall of flesh is a bit of a pain in the butt. It spreads rapidly and trying to trim it back causes a lot of enemy spawns. But now that we have it more conveniently located we should be able to farm it for Toughspikes for our Bioferrite farm.

Holding onto that insect jelly was expensive. I really should have sold it earlier but everything turned out ok in the end. Thrumbo make pretty good assault troops.

Kill bugs and research stuff, pretty much sums this game up so far. Their are a few nice build ideas to play around with like the power and liquid mechanics. Give me another 4-8 hours with this and we will see how far we can take it.

Still No key for the new ONI Dlc :(
We max out nuke production, we are only getting 9 nukes a minute but it's enough for our needs. Combined with a Spidertron we can lay waste to large swaths of the map in short order. I'm finding that Factorio is not as conducive to my style of recording as ONI or Rimworld. Most of the joy of Factorio is figuring out how to get things working and the designs do not change as the map is always effectively the same. Where as ONI has so many different ways of doing anything and Rimworld is bottled chaos. I think Factorio may be more of a streamer/chatting game. I'm not giving up on it but I will have to try some new ways of playing to make it more friendly to my style of video.

Starting with a pawn going through Wake up withdraw who also happens to be your builder is a bad idea. Picard keeps botching constructions due to the reduced consciousness. This reduces expansion to a crawl while we wait for Picard to catch up. Janeway has scarring and a chemical interest trait so she drinks herself into unconsciousness. But she is keeping up with meals and crops mostly. Sisko has been hunting and cutting stone like a champ. They also completed our first successful trade bringing back a sniper rifle and an auto pistol. But the future is starting to look up, most of the bedrooms are no longer terrible and with better food our pawns moods are starting to stabilise. We should be able to move faster from here.
"The25" rules
Whatever difficulty you are comfortable with or maybe a little more.
Commitement mode, map seed "The25"
No mods that change game balance.
Cant re-roll starting pawns but you can choose any of the available 8.
Pick any location to settle you like, you cannot ever run from this tile.
Recruit pawns until you have hit a total of 25, dead pawns count towards the total, you cannot recruit more than 25.
Once you hit 25 not before, start the mission to get off the planet, reactor, escape ship, royal mission.
You get one points for every pawn you get off the planet alive and one point for every season under 25 it takes you to get off the planet.
You get -1 point for every season over 25 it takes you to get off the planet, the first season is season 0. It only becomes a new season when the date of the 6th hits, so you can be 10 seasons and 14 days in and that still counts as 10 seasons.

I'm not sure I'll get all the achievements but I am going to have to try and get at least a few. The different bots all look like such fun.
Control powerful mechs from the future to defeat an alien threat. Each attempt to save the world presents a new randomly generated challenge in this turn-based strategy game.

This might not be for beginners, we are going to be moving fast and covering a lot of ground. Rimworld is a complex game and their are so many small game mechanics that need to be understood before you can even start to feel comfortable.

That's three dungeons down and one or two left to go. I have a strange feeling that we will be fighting our boss when the time comes.
