Beginner-Friendly Vanilla RimWorld - Ep 16 (No Mods, No DLC!)

RimWorld mods are GREAT, but the base, vanilla gameplay is also excellent -- and a great way for new players to learn the game! This is going to be a combination Tutorial / Let's Play series!

New to the channel? I do Let's Play videos -- these are like walkthrough guides of gameplay with continuous English commentary trying to explain my decisions and what strategy I use. If you're looking for hacks or cheats, you're in the wrong place!

For the love of all that’s tidy, please create another stockpile! 🙂 Also, freezer is vented again.

[diftor]

For any BEGINNER, end tables need to be adjacent to the HEAD of the bed or they will not work.
A dresser can be placed within a few tiles to beds, but the end tables has very specific placement requirements.
An error Quill has been doing for a long long time and never bothered to correct (nearly as old as 'pigs are good for food production' - no Quill, that's in Dwarf Fortress).

[Empiro]

I think it's funny that Quill finally thinks that his food situation is overkill -- it's been overkill since like episode 6. I've found that in a temperate climate, you don't really need to worry about food much. You can always just hunt.

[chakatfirepaw]

To absolutely no one's surprise, Quill has forgotten that he can't make shells because he doesn't have any source of chemfuel.

loving this series :D very relaxing to just watch someone else play while my own colony burns XD also didnt notice till recently that this series is very recent and not just a backlog of episodes so im skipping ahead to show some support <3 ty for all the tips and advice

[carrotman]

I was just watching your unity tutorials wondering where you went, I popped over here and it's nice to see you're still putting out stuff your into :)

[koolkiop]

i just binged this play through.... i want more!

I believe that night table in the hospital isn't going to do anything. I am about 90% sure that night tables need to be next to the head of the bed to provide the bonus.

15:44 (Advanced) components are a Smithing job, not Crafting

17:18 ..And /this/ is why I set a limit on Butchering (& meals): it's v easy to overfill your freezer, esp mid to late game. So Q temporarily solves the problem at this time, but then ignores the repeat a few seconds later for at least the rest of this episode, maybe longer :))

22:35 If you make end tables for your hospital beds, pawns won't sleep for so long while recovering from injuries or disease, esp the latter. This is important, as it's the most effective way of boosting recovery rate, even if a TV is installed so they can rest (not sleep) in bed happily

23:25 "It has no game impact whatsoever" ..since you put it in the wrong place again! The vitals monitor now covers all adjacent beds regardless of placement; the end table /has to be placed adjacent to the bedhead/ (see its description)! Vitals monitors used to have the same requirement, but that was relaxed post v1.0 IIRC, so swap the location of these 2 in the hospital.. tho ofc then the monitor will only cover the lower 3 beds

If you have dusters, pants aren't required for avoiding the 'unhappy nudity' debuff for all pawns (shirts only apply to females)

Please attack the danger zone and turn it in to stockpile

[marcuslynch]

travellers quite often have reinforced barrels and you have a lot to trade. imho.

[christianwendt]

I'm only on Ep. 9, I just checked if we had visited the Danger™.

[ztreggs]

Is there a negative to building shelves in stockpiles to increase storage capacity?

[pershop]

One of tye mods i like is to make stacks go to 100s or 1000s, for exactly this reason.

[Dave_]

Is there a reason why you are not cremating all the animal skeletons? Its personal, but seeing them in the outside stockpile bothers me haha

[stevengrieb]

hey man I have a question....I just got RimWorld on my ps4 but I forget if u can equip a melee weapon n a ranged one at the same time

[ggq_qbb]

i cant understand why dont start a caravan to sell stuff is stupid to slow down your production because you dont have space

[riqq]

Quill listen to Yayo by Lana del Rey for the correct pronunciation. It’s YAY-YO. It’s a slang term for cocaine lol

[CardinalBirbRose]

comment for the algorithm thx for series

[LilaHikes]

Changes difficulty... mindlessly zooming around the map.... This isn't beginner anymore. I think I'm done here.

Folks, if you want to see what happens when the Danger Zone is opened, go to Episode 26.
