The base feels good now. Might try my hand in some caravans, only ever did one to save a guy.

Its damn addictive to play this game.

Also felt I was cruising along then some Boom rat went into my kill area and burned almost everything down. Now its remade with granite all the way!

So I see why I should fire proof a bit more.
Nothign like boomrats and boomalopes in this game.

I have this t shirt.

Components are definitely scarce at times and you learn to be frugal with them. Don't go nuts on autodoors, early on I limit those to freezer entry only. Lot of other doors can just be switched to "leave open" most of the time so they don't slow people down but still have a thermal isolation effect.

If you haven't yet, start cutting exploratory tunnels into all of the remaining mountains, more components can be hidden inside them.

Doubling up walls and making a simple airlock (door-one space-door) will lower the cooling requirements for the freezer room. Doors insulate less than walls so ideally a freezer should have only one entrance. This also avoids people pathing through it on their way to another place (each time the door opens you lose some of the cold). Sometimes it's still worth it to have another one to optimize walking distance (like I did below, direct path from fields to kitchen and cooler and to the dining room).

A lot of Rimworld play is about optimizing the use of time, avoiding unnecessary walking means you get more done.

Thanks for the tips.

I had some malfunction and one AC got damaged and one heater also. Could only afford to repair the AC for the freezer due to lacking components. So kinda need to find some asap, will try mining into mountains!

Opened up the ancient danger and killed some bugs in there, unlocked the pods and they started blasting each other lol.

Got an Assault Rifle, 2 Shotguns and some flak gear and an Advanced Component. Not the best loot but still something.

Was just going to check out that ancient danger at 1 am but ended up playing until 4am... Good thing its vacation.
