>Ponies of the Rim
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3223243284
A mod for Rimworld that adds ponies to the game.
Highlights include full compatability with Biotech and all DLC: cross-breed with human-likes and recruit ponies with fire-breathing genes. Fulfill your Anon in Equestria fantasy and raise a family of foals with your waifu. Then watch them starve, catch on fire, or be mowed down by mechanoids - or are you a bad enough dude to protect your family?

Other reccommended mods:
>Pawnkind Race Diversification
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2828866565
Remove the nohooves! With this mod you can make a pony-only world.

>Vanilla Plants Expanded
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2748889667
All Vanilla Expanded mods are great, but this one adds a crop that produces both vegetable food and hay at the same time. Highly reccommended since ponies can eat and cook with hay.

>Interaction Bubbles
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1516158345
See what your ponies have to say to each other.

>Speak Up
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2502518544
Same as above, adds even more cute banter.

>Gloomy Furniture
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3231428653
Cute furniture for your ponies.

Post screenshots and discuss.
Dwarf Fortress and other colony games with pony mods also welcome.

Been playing on half of op's modlist and question that bothered me so far - operation with creation of artificial tail from 3 cloth. Is that bug or some feature?

Fucking unf. Was planning it more like after birth kind of feeling though. So her teats were normal and then after while she's busy nursing the foal they're much bigger

YOOOO! The fucking odds! Wow. Didn't even mean to. I was only off in how I put the scars on her left shoulder. Crazy.

But difficulty is easily configurable and you can always savescam bad events (usually into even worse) You can always change difficulty and narrator mid-game so select somewhere between 2-3 dif and more-less determined narrator and have fun figuring out ways game can kill you. There is fast tutorial and interractive in-game wiki. Op's modlist is kinda ok. Try lurking previous thread, there were some useful links
my suggestions:
1) don't listen to game's "map bigger than smol is bad"
2)If you ARE planing to savescam - this game saves killed my ssd years ago, consider hdd raid or ramdisk

Apart from that, it's just a lot of resource management and setting up bills to automate as much as possible. Clothing can throw you for a loop early on, but you can set it up to burn old clothes and keep new sets on standby.
>>
>>41065561
I set their clothing wearing options to only wear 51% wear or better, normal or higher quality clothes and it seems to keep them pretty happy but you do have to keep making them on a loop. Selling clothes is super lucrative though, even poor and tattered clothes sell for a decent amount so I tend to keep them around just in case.

For me, it's 70% and masterwork or higher to keep the tailor well trained. Goes through a lot of material, but cloth is easy to acquire anyway.

Cause she got stabbed in the tail, it got infected then she sad wondered to death because her room wasn't nice enough and pain.

There are some early game beds including 'free' 'floor' bed and cheap bedrolls. Better than nothing, helped multiple times during 'you can't capture cause you don't have prisoner beds, bleeding out: 1h'

>>41064598
>How is the orphaned filly?
She's good. Everyone in the colony loves her. She's a nerd who craves body modification and has a passion for melee combat. I've got that training mod now so I'll make a little dojo for her to train in. Part of me wants to turn her into Raiden, but the other part of me just wants to coddle her.
>Was planning it more like after birth kind of feeling though. So her teats were normal and then after while she's busy nursing the foal they're much bigger
Yeah, that sounds hot. Her teats aren't going to be returning to their petite size anytime soon because she just got pregnant again.
>bows and glasses
Unf. I'd love to see some more variety in clothes just in general. I want to see my mares in their cool armor and robes.
>Is this the same nurse already missing an eye? Wtf?
Yep. She's been going through some hard times lately. She broke up with her marefriend and Night is still being rude to her. She considers almost everyone to be her friend but only Anon and Strong consider her a friend :(

>because hoarding shit will kill you
NTA but what does this mean? I haven't started the game yet.
>>
>>41067086
The game's difficulty is based on some secret math that involves the time your colony existed and the total value of all the stuff in your colony.
You can cheese the difficulty by enabling multiple colonies cause they have equal chances of having events and they only happen one at a time.
>>
>>41067121
Yeah this. The difficulty of raids and the like are modulated by your total wealth score. So hoarding everything you come across can inflate your score too high before you're ready to deal with the consequences.

>Orphaned filly Strong
She's quite the filly. Suppose the limits of her flesh have sickened her. Jokes aside, it's very easy to see how being paralyzed and likely left for dead by your family has traumatized her in a way to make her want to mitigate the shortcomings of her assigned meatsuit and even surpass it's limits to never feel like that again. So it makes sense. Don't know if I'd let her go nuts with it. I want my little filly to be happy and content with the way she is. And be cuddled and a little spoiled.
>petite size anytime soon because she just got pregnant again.
Fucking hell yeah. That's cute. Would definitely smash pegasus wife to start a clan.
>Nurse
Jesus, wtf? That's sad.
>She considers almost everyone to be her friend but only Anon and Strong consider her a friend :(
My heart breaks. She probably feels like a failure. Poor mare. At this rate, I wonder if Night would accept her into a herd as more of a concubine if she begged - seeing as she's probably so alone and demoralized. Would definitely spitroast her with my wife using a strapon. Then pamper her in aftercare while assuring her that I intend to get her pregnant too.
>>41067253
That is very good to know. Agreed. Though the synthpone is inherently high value. I imagine starting a game with all synths is a recipe for disaster according to that form of measurement.
>>>41067609
Where did anything say that? Either way, that's more of a meme. A true representation of her if she was faithfully representative of the ideals of the 3rd Reich is that she'd just be a nationalist. "I want to see you eat, just not at my table."
>>
>>41068505
She's a meme character, created as a joke, not a literal representation of anything. The unicorn supremacist is literally part of her history and jokes.
But also yea, I suppose pony supremacy would also fit for a run focused on her, especially so she's not shunned from her own city, kek

Some of the mods did it better.

I think it's great that we have both options. The man can make a career out of his game for the normalfags who believe in paying for software, the mods are available for free for those who don't want his DLC, and you can just download it by googling the name of the game and "fitgirl" together. It's trivially easy to acquire games these days, just use a VPN. It's a game you can get hundreds of hours of entertainment out of, and each DLC release (and free update!) adds another slice of hour-age to add to your playtime. If you value your time at minimum wage of ~7 USD, depending on how much you play the game and its DLC, you may get 120 USD of value out of it. And if you don't believe in paying that much for video games... don't! There's something for everyone here. There are no sour grapes, so there's no need to whine. The game is fine. Even if you only like a previous version you can still play that version, and the mods for it.

Then you can see all head accessories on your pony with the hair too

I have a mod that adds Glasses (I will look up which one it is next time I boot it, might be Ratkins) and there are lots of cute hairstyle mods on the workshop so you can pick your favorite that adds bows, then use Character Editor to put it on your pony. They will want to change their look but just don't let them and it won't matter.
>https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1874644848

You can use the Styling Bench from Ideology to change the tail, Pony Dev says something like Character Editor needs to update compatability for aliens before you can fix it in CE but that might come in the future.

And that's why the Quarry mod is the best mod
>>
>>41070846
It's pretty good but I still prefer the old way of levelling an entire mountain to turn it into bricks.
>>
>>41070855
Then you put the quarries where the mountain was
>>
>>41070573
For the first point, if you have more than one colony enabled, you can caravan out for a temporary quarry area.

>>41070907
I can never make enough FUCKing food to travel, they eat so goddamn much every day
>>
>>41070926
You can restrict how much they eat, but depending on biome, caravans will absolutely make up for it with forage.

I must be doing something wrong because these fatasses starve and get sooo pissed off every time

>Added textures for ghould from Anomaly and furskins from Biotech
>Added a hotkey for every racial ability for ponies. Lucky for us, that hotkey is not used anywhere in the game, so it'll probably still be compatible with other mods
>Also magic burst ability now counts as combat ability and will be tracked in combat logs
>>
>>41070926
That's why my highest priority is always food, you can literally never have enough and need to get those faggots making ricefields (and some other growing zone full of high yield stuff) as soon as possible
>>
>>41070937
>>41071276
>you can never have enough food
1)pipeline your stove \ fridge (pony who cooks has to be locked from hauling and has to have 2 dedicated haulers and sub-stockpiles directly connected to his chair.
You can improve food situation 2-3 times when they'l stop remembering about food when it's too late.
2)have 2-3 slaves dedicated to fields only
3)look at soil fertility unless you replaced it all with hydroponics
3.1)prepare for blight. Don't have 1 mega field.
4)have large fridge to fit 4-5 years of food. Try to fit it for year to free your cook \ haulers other part of year
5)optionally use op's weeb mod for getting bonus hay from all plants (considering you don't have >nohooves and your ponies >mostly vegans) (you don't have to add other weeb content to game, disable race at starting notification), otherwise all animals bigger than a squirrel are worth hunting all the time.
Advice about taming > hunting works only on 1 animal. When there's lot of them ai will try to shoot each once and wait for them to bleed while switching to next one.
6)create cheapest meals unless you're 100% sure you can afford expensive ones. Mood boost you'l get from expensive will not save them from starving next day
7)hay>potato>rice, apple trees from op's mod don't die during winter
7.1)micro field outside fridge can be heated by fridge exhaust during winter
>>
>>41071836
even doing all this I still struggle to travel without starving, they are sooooo fattttt
>>
>>41072411
Make pemmican, take 20XfoodbarsXColonistXdaysX2 to travel or survival meals at a rate 1XFBXCXDX2
>>
>>41072440
I saw I was able to make vegetarian packaged survival meals in one of my games but I think that only come with the vegan ideo meme from this mod or something because I can't do it again. angy
>>
>>41072440
what is a "foodbar" in this context? can colonists have multiple foodbars?
>>

>>41072658
Not usually
The average human has 1, ponies have .9
Most meals are .9 and a single unit of pemmican is 0.05
The hunger mood debuff is based on what percent full it is
Picrel is top a colonist with 3 and the bottom is a pony with .9
>>
>>41072855
ohh, okay that makes sense
>>
So if ponies can eat hay, would it be a viable strat to just pack hay instead of meals or pemmican for long distance travel?
>>
>>41073286
Theoretically
Sometimes they won't eat not human foods in caravans

>all vanilla expanded mods are great
I know you mean well, anon, but Oskarshit mods are a scourge of poorly thought out, poorly balanced and weirdly sprited content.
Don't use vanilla expanded.

That's just, like, your opinion man

>weapons and armor expansions
>fishing and sushi
>a bunch of stuff for Ideo
>the other races it adds for biotech
>VEHICLES

You can dislike it personally but don't act like that's a fact. I like everything it adds (but admittedly I don't care about balance and I play on easy) and I personally feel that the artwork fits the style.
>>
>>41072855
>>41073712
There are dedicated better mods for literally all those features:
Rimkit for backpacks
Dubs Hygiene for sprinklers (also hygiene/toilet need)
Rimatomics for nuclear reactors
Literally any race mod for storytellers/factions
Literally any ideology mod, or any biotech mod
Giddy up for vehicle behaviour (can giddy up on a mech and shit)
It is 100% my opinion, but it's a shared sentiment by many that Oskar has only brought poorly thought out shit, like the totally not a fetish bro just drink the sweat-made rum from the rumsuit, and has managed to inject himself into the game.
I genuinely encourage you to look for dedicated mods for anything you like in the vanilla expanded catalog, I can GUARANTEE with zero animosity that you'll find a better experience outside of it rather than inside it. I know by experience, I liked the VE mods, until I realized how bloated they felt and how unbalanced they made any of my playthroughs.
If nothing else, look into DubsHygiene and Rimatomics, they're very, very well balanced and play really well.
Unrelated but give Centralized Climate Control a look, it's great.
>>
>>41073763
Counterpoint:
It's a list of like 90 mods that all guaranteed work together and I can install it on steam with 1 button and it's all updated for 1.5
>>
>>41073775
Fair enough. I like to tinker my game so I don't mind slogging through steam's available mods.
I do insist that you check rimatomics, dubs hygiene and centralized climate control, though. I cannot stress enough just how good they are.
>>
>>41073804
I personally have tried Dubs' and I just don't like the hygiene system, and I like how the nuclear is integrated into the VE modlist better than anything else
There's something for everypony and it's all good is my only point, there is only different degrees of good depending on what we all like
I also don't really get into the rumsuit thing but i just don't use it
>>
>>41073763
Alright, what does that have to do with food need capacity aka foodbars?
>>
>>41073775
Yes
>>
One day I will be able to sim a happy herd in this game.

It's pretty easy to keep them happy if you pick an Ideology that matches with what you do normally and do rituals for them frequently in a nice temple, but if you don't have Ideo it kind of is all about mainlining smokeleaf or harder drugs directly into their eyeballs and dealing with the consequences

It's not even difficult or scary. You install the program, you click the on button, it protects you from snoopers and you can download any and every game you ever wanted for free without your ISP bitching at you.

But I'm not gonna say Tynan doesn't deserve the sale either so do as you please and enjoy the game

You should care if the video games industry matters to you at all
Blindly accepting extortionate pricing is how it got this bad
>>
>>41082412
>the video games industry matters to you at all
I've accepted that it's doomed long ago
>Blindly accepting extortionate pricing is how it got this bad
It's a 'good indie sim' I previously played for weeks on fitgirl edition, so I bought base game when it was on a sale. There are worse 'indie sims' which for example are chinkstore exclusives and don't update game at all for years after first big success.
>DLC
As previously mentioned some dlcs are better and more integrated to mods than other. And as was mentioned there is no drm check for them so you can copy them from fitgirl version if you want.
>high price
It sucks but today's average AAA game stops being interesting in a day when this genre of games have just right amount of autism in them to force you spending more time. You can argue it's also manipulation e.t.c. but it's either big price, stopping updates or selling to big industry which's doomed anyway. Nobody forces you to buy dlcs you don't like or play on newest version until bugs are fixed and mods ported
>>
>>41082492
it's because modern video games designed by studios are literal skinner boxes designed to milk you of all the cash it can before you even notice you've spent it
whereas indie games that get published are actually made by people who like games
i would rather pay 120 USD for all of rimworld than buy Zelda BOTW and TOTK again (120 dollars total ish)

>Irregularly shaped houses
>Not centered on a grid
Holy sovl. Also here's a tip, your coolers don't have to be set towards the edge of the building to have access to open air. You can set them up so they're right in the middle of a building, as long as they open into a single unroofed square, it counts as outdoors and will properly vent heat. It helps during raids so you don't have pawns attacking coolers as a weak spot in a building.

Can you get alicorns somehow? I want to start a cult with an alicorn in charge ^:)
>>
I'm new to Rimworld how exactly do you get more ponies to your place?
>>
>>41085701
Breed them, or do it the good old fashioned way by beating ponies over the head with a club, sticking them in a small room, and making them an offer they can't refuse.
>>
>>41085566
They haven't added alicorns yet but I assume they're coming

>>41085701
Random joiners will wander past and ask to join. Capturing prisoners and recruiting them is another viable strategy.
>>
Do I need to do something for my pones to have a baby? I have two that have been banging like crazy for a while yet they haven't gotten pregnant.
Also, do I need a heater in every room? tried putting in some vents to share the heat between bedrooms but they were still complaining about sleeping in the cold.
>>
>>41086204
Yeah it's pretty much just luck of fertility I think
Comfortable temperature is listed on the pawn's bio sheet. Heaters generate heat strongest at the source and weaker as you get further away. Vents are good at equalizing the temperature across an area but if you have a cold spot that's far away from heat sources it will probably stay cold.
I use a Vanilla Expanded mod now that adds HVAC and I just run an AC unit to every room because I'm lazy, but temperature management can be one of the more !FUN! parts of this game
