Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

There is a texture mod that helps improve the games performance. There are some cool filter/ lighting packs out there to make the game look a lot better and help lower the games performance.

There is a slopeless mod for keeping buildings level on uneven terrain but it causes bugs inside the building sometimes.

Other than those some people really like recruitable prisoners and the flesh peeler for min maxing their squad. I haven't messed with either of those.

It's been almost a year since my last play through though so maybe they're is some new stuff.

I highly recommend building a base in the south east so you can experience the joy that is the crab tournament.

minor kenshi 2 news. no date or anything.

Unreal 5. (unreal wasn't new news. but specifying 5 is.)
"33 people are currently working on Kenshi 2 at a consistent, solid pace."


some other interesting notes about modding, physics, world partition, etc.

I like the screenshot seems to be keeping with the same art "theme" from the first game, just with crisper graphics. I'm prepared to lose months of my life to this. The first one was such a gem of a game.

You mothefucker. I thought this was going to be Kenshi 2 news.

Base size will vary as you want. You can just empty it out, when exploring. or, have a skeleton crew, and just have them run and hide, if the base is attacked while the fighting force is away. then there is also a point, where gear and skill lets your forces defend themselves against most raids safely.

1 dedicated cook early game. later you might want 1 dedicated cook, 1 breadmaker/with cooking backup.
1 weaponcrafter, 1 armor crafter imho. usually have them going nonstop as soon as iron is up and running. to skillup. also selling weapons/katanas is op.
1 farmer, adding them periodically. note. BAD farmers damage crops. so this is one where skill matters. and sending low skilled farmers to "help" probably isnt helping. 2 high skilled farmers can do like 8 xl fields.
2-3 dedicated iron/stone. with the fighter squads helping out here.
2-4dedicated gaurds. turrets are fun. but honestly can be not really worth it. turret problems: "dedicated standing around". versus a "guard" that is busy farming/or mining until trouble shows up. Best, when used to shoot behind closed gates. but doesn't actually kill large groups fast enough to stop them from busting down the gates. and requires keeping the gates shut, preventing visitors. Friendly fire. turrets can FF and have a high chance of one shotting allies. especially true of harpoons.


just robotics bench and robotics storage should do it. just need to queue up the crafting in proper order. craft the motors,limbs, etc,and they will store them in the storage, then "robotics components" they will pull them out.
