Didn't play for a long time after Royalty dropped, but picked up the new expansions a couple weeks ago and am very much enjoying my new colony. I don't really care about the gene therapy gameplay but Ideology is amazing. And it is weird and fun to see the major mutant types such as the pig men and the squirrel people, etc.

a family tree generally means a record of blood relations between people it has nothing to do with relationships. It's a way to quickly, at a glance, see who a pawns father is, grandfather, great grandfather, siblings, uncles, aunts, and should branch off additional relations to those people.

Here's a sims 3 family tree. A discolored portrait indicates a character is deceased.

What does the white squares and red and yellow lines mean?
Noteworthy that both of the guys Samantha's been with, are named Wiesburger. Are they related, Samantha got her husbands surname in the first marriage then after divorce, made the new hubby take her (ex's) surname, or is it just a crazy coincidence?

Codex Year of the Donut
Didn't notice it before, but it's interesting [that Starfield is] including religions when most sci-fi material tends to either ridicule or ignore the topic. Despite it being a very important topic in its own right due to the setting.
You should check out Rimworld: Ideology. Really good stuff.
TBH I burned myself out on the base game and have found it hard to get into it again even after all this time.

Same, I burned out hard, last time I played was right after Royalty came out which was .. geez, almost 3 years ago? It hasn't fundamentally changed but Ideology made me excited to create a colony again. Actually I'm excited to create multiple new games. Setting up belief systems is a new type of fun, build a whole colony who gets sad if they don't have slaves, a matriarchy where men can have as many wives as they want, worshipers of a blind god who gouge out their own eyes for blessings ... plus if you didn't play Royalty there is a legit quest system providing optional short-term goals AND any quest that is faction-based can be refused or exploited (example, the Empire wants you to hold a powerful prisoner until the prison shuttle comes, but you can accept the mission and then recruit the prisoner, set them free etc. if you want).

I think Sam's a naughty gal, married one brother and shagged another one (who then married Tana). Note that her bastard son went after his father, 'cause he had also almost turned niggerdad on his three daughters (Justina probably drank a lot and/or turned to religion, since her daughters have blank eyes).
Also, Daniels family had 6 daughters, of whom 2 had married sterile asian brothers, 2 had married shitskins, one had turned shitskin lesbian and the last one had birthed only daughters as well, including Sam.
Also, Cassy Daniels had "married" a sexdoll and adopted some Chink refugee kids.
That's a very interesting and very progressive family that one should stay the fuck away from.

FFS, the more I look at this picture the better it gets.

I mean, seriously, what the fuck, just look at it!
Here's a sims 3 family tree. A discolored portrait indicates a character is deceased.
iu

First, the age. As one might note, the picture has 6 generations of people. The youngest, Samuel-Ronald-Holly are probably around 10-15-20 years old. It makes Autumn around 35-40 yo, Cat - 50-60, Sam ~75, Ruby ~90 and Dana - more than a century old woman (if they all began giving birth at minimal 15-20 yo). Despite that Dana looks young, she has comparatively long hair (i.e. not bald at all) and they're not even gray. All her kids look young as well. Only something supernatural could've caused it.

And so our story begins with Daniels couple.
Dean and Dane liked sex so much, that they've been cursed for their debauchery (potency increasing voodoo items probably weren't involved, since the curse went via female line). The curse made them to have only daughters and have unnatural lifespans. The daughters also turned out to be a little in the head.
Mary had tried to go for an ultra-virgin birth that turned her into an officially registered lesbian.
Jenny&Jade became coal burners, while Steph and Meg had married sterile Sekemoto brothers. Of them only Jenny didn't won Darwin award and managed to procreate... obviously giving birth to a girl, because the curse was strong.
The youngest, Ruby, had probably ran away from her family. Can't blame her. Two of her sisters had tried to copy haircut, probably along with a personality, of their mother. Their mother went all Scrooge while giving precious stones names to her precious daughters. And interracial warfare in the family probably ran a bit too much. I would've ran as well.

But, of course, the curse was strong in Ruby as well, because no sane person would've chosen the family of her husband.
Josh has two sisters, Marion and Cassie, both of whom should be pretty unbearable.
Marion had never been married despite obviously being very old and probably has a house full of scavenger cats.
Cassie had "married" a BDSM fucktoy and gave him Daniels surname, probably because she was jealous of Josh and wanted to have a proper family, like he had. She ended up adopting a couple of asian kids, all of them girls, because she obviously wanted to parrot the curse as well. She probably regularly tries to conduct happy family teaparty performances during which she waters her husband with slimy herbal teas and laughs nerviously to her kids a lot.

Back to Ruby. Of course she gave birth to daughters, Matilda and Samantha.
Matilda had grown up into a dominating bitch - she forced her Eastern European husband (Roman) to take up her surname and be constantly ashamed of his legacy. Her son Gregory (not Grigoriy or something) is single despite being in his fifties and probably stutters a lot after being raised by such a mother (he also wears a waistcoat, we all know the type - he probably still lives with his parents and browses 'Dex... hi Greg!). On the plus side, Matilda gave birth to the son, so the Orthodox legacy of Roman had probably overcame at least some effects of the curse.

Samantha grew up to be a whore, like her gran. She had married Moses, a guy from religious family (because who the hell names their son Moses) only to cuck him with his brother. Moses spends most of his time with his sons Damien and Zach - both not mundane English names as well, so his blood and religious upbringing had probably overcame at least some effects of the curse. He's also completely blind (hence the dark glasses) to his wife's escapades. His brother Corey is trouble and probably a source of many scandalous evenings at home.
Zach went after his father, 'cause he had also almost turned niggerdad on his three daughters. Justina probably drank a lot and/or turned to religion, since her daughters have blank eyes and may or may not participate in religious orgies of their forebears (New England democratic pedophiles conspiracy theory-like). They deny anything bad ever being done to them, of course, seem comparatively happy and visit an isolated dilapidated church diligently.

Younger generations - Cat, Autumn and her kids - look rather normal. Apart from Ronald who came out as a bottom homo in his teens, but its zoomers to you. So the blood infusions from Ryan and Gustave had probably at least weakened the curse a lot, and at most made it completely irrelevant ending the infusion of supernatural energy into this world.

All is not safe, though. Old Dana still lurks in her family mansion and her husband, who smoothed her wilder desires grew really old and wasn't seen for a long time. Would old matriarch appear out of her adobe, spewing bile, despair and sexial juices all over the world? Who knows what the future holds.

This pic should be made into a Netflix miniseries, at least for a hot trio religious action.

1.4 content update adds more integration between expansions
New Ideology precepts, gene-modding improvements, player-made xenotypes in the world, polux tree seeds, and more!

Hi there!

RimWorld's 1.4 content update is now available! It adds cross-expansion integration with new Ideology precepts that link to Biotech, gene-modding and inheritance improvements, diplomatic reactions to pollution dumping, polux tree seeds, tribalwear for kids, and many other miscellaneous changes.

In a previous announcement, Ty covered the juicy details of this update. That same announcement has been shared below, as well as the changelog with our latest rounds of testing.

Thanks to everyone who helped us test this update. The community goes above and beyond with feedback and reports, and it genuinely helps us get these updates out so quickly. We've also tested the update for savegame and mod compatibility. If you’d like to help test our updates in the future, please join the official RimWorld Development Discord.

If you want to keep playing on the previous version of 1.4, you can use the Steam beta branch "version-1.4.3542".
To do this, r-click RimWorld in the Steam library, go to properties, open the betas tab, and select the version from the dropdown.

Join us on Reddit to discuss the update here.

Also, please don't hesitate to review
Biotech
on Steam
!

Enjoy. :)

Cross-expansion integration
We’ve been following feedback across the community (Reddit, Steam comments, Twitch, YouTube, and our insightful testers on Discord) to try to make sure all the details are covered. It’s a very complex game at this point, so there are quite a few details - having feedback from tens of thousands of people is frankly invaluable from a design perspective.

One theme that’s come up is the desire for integration between expansion packs. Originally, I was a bit hesitant to put this in because I worried it would feel like locking one expansion’s content behind another expansion. However feedback seems to indicate that people want it, and narrative-wise, it would make a ton of sense if the ideoligions from the Ideology expansion had beliefs about xenohumans, sanguophages, children, and so on. So I decided to work on this.

I’ve found over the years that the wrong way to design Ideology precepts is to just think of something that seems fictionally reasonable and implement it blindly. You end up with mechanics that “make sense” but aren’t actually storyful or fun. Instead, we decided to take a “goal experience” approach to the design: We wrote down a list of the specific play paths and role-play stories that players might want to explore, and which would also be fun. Then we created precepts that specifically open up those play paths:

Belief issue - Bloodfeeders:
The vampire lord with human worshipers is a classic idea. So are the vampire hunters. This precept changes peoples’ attitudes towards people with the
bloodfeeder
gene (which in Biotech means only sanguophages, though you can of course create your own bloodfeeder xenotypes).

Those who
revere
bloodfeeders will want them around, love them, and be fine with being fed upon. Those who
revile
bloodfeeders will hate having them around, despise them, love killing them, refuse to become them, and hate themselves if they are one. Bring on Dracula’s thralls.

Belief issue - Child labor:
We always had the idea of players being able to choose to invest more or less in children - to decide between using them as workers or fighters, or trying to strengthen their development with a rich and free childhood. Now ideoligions can have opinions on how this ought to be done.

Those who
encourage
child labor will have children who work faster and not like assigning children to recreation. Those who
disapprove
of child labor will have children who learn faster, but adults won’t be happy if children are assigned to work.

Belief issue - Mechanoid labor:
Machine worshippers need to be able to live off the labor of their electrically-powered buddies. When an ideoligion has mechanoid labor
enhanced
, mechanoids controlled by its mechanitors will work faster, but colonists will work slower (because why should a human have to do a machine’s job?)

Belief issue - Growth vats:
Ideology has technology worshippers and technology haters, and they need to be able to interact with growth vats as well as biosculpter pods.

Those who see growth vats as
essential
will grow quicker in the vats, but be unhappy with (yuck) natural reproduction. Luddites who see growth vats as
prohibited
refuse to build them and will be unhappy having them around, and especially having kids inside.

Belief issue - Preferred xenotypes:
Whether it’s a baseliner purity cult or a fur-only yttakin tribe, some beliefs may place a certain xenotypes over others. An ideoligion can have up to three
preferred xenotypes
. If there are no preferred xenotypes, there is no effect, just like in older versions. However, if any xenotypes are preferred, believers will be happier with a colony of their preferred xenotypes and have a higher opinion of them, but a lower opinion of others. They’ll also try to refuse becoming a non-preferred xenotype and be quite bothered if they end up as one.

More generally, we linked xenogene implantation to the existing
body-modding
precepts, so those who love or hate body mods will appropriately love or hate having xenogenes as well (note this doesn’t affect germline genes, so you can still have e.g. a body purist impid ideology).

Those with beliefs about
autonomous weapons
will extend those beliefs to the use of mechanoids as well.

Other notable features
Xenotypes breed true:
Previously, there were sometimes broken-looking cases where parents with germline genes would have a child that lacked many of them. We removed some metabolism limits for baby gene generation and made the algorithm that generates baby genes from parent genes more flexible. This means that your gene-modded humans will pass down their genes completely and reliably.

Loosening the economy around gene-modding:
Previously, making custom xenotypes during game setup worked well, but it was quite hard to actually do genetic modification during the game. Getting your hands on the genes and building all the infrastructure was quite costly and sometimes hard to justify from a game advantage perspective.

We’ve tuned some systems to make gene-modding more viable. Now, quest rewards come with a lot more genepack options and they’re available earlier in the game. We’ve reduced the xenogerm shock from extracting genepacks which will speed up your extraction efforts. We’ve also changed how certain genes apply traits so that you can stack effects together and create more diverse xenotypes. This is an ongoing tuning effort and we’ll be watching and dialing in the numbers to try to make gene-modding useful, moderately costly, and narratively-interesting.

Polux tree seeds:
These new special seeds can be acquired in a few special ways. They’re rare to find, but with them you can plant a polux tree at a place of your choosing. Collecting polux trees is a new alternative way to suppress and remove pollution (besides the atomizer) in the late game (after it builds up in the early/midgame).

Pollution dumping diplomatic responses:
There are a variety of ways to deal with pollution - freeze it, erase it in the atomizer, let polux trees neutralize it, just make less of it - or export it. We’ve added more depth and sensibility to diplomatic responses from other factions when you dump pollution off-map. Whether you’re dropping pods of pollution straight onto their homes, or dumping them off of a caravan, or launching toxic packs into the ocean, other factions will notice and respond more consistently and interestingly. At the most basic level, this means goodwill impacts. However, there is also a small chance of new faction retaliation in response to you dumping pollution in the world - they might send punitive attacks, or even drop some pollution back onto you. Together with the polux tree seeds, we hope that this will balance the choice between different pollution management methods and make that decision more interesting, while also de-emphasizing micromanagement-heavy strategies. It also adds a bit of narrative flair to have other factions respond directly to your actions.

Player-made xenotypes spawn in the world:
Player-made xenotypes will now spawn in the world! Your customized pig/cat/dog hybrid no longer needs to be alone. Basically, in various random spawn situations like crash pod survivors or refugees, there is now a chance that the arriving person will spawn as any xenotype in the world. That includes modded xenotypes, as well as xenotypes created by the player. (Note: Not every player-created xenotype file is considered - only those if the xenotype is referred to in an ideoligion or the player used it for a starting colonist).

And the changelog below lists a pile of other smaller changes and fixes - go read it!

Thanks all,
Ty

Big new stuff
Added precepts related to bloodfeeders:
  • Revered: “Bloodfeeders should be worshipped.” Positive mood effects for having bloodfeeders in the colony. Negative thoughts from bloodfeeder deaths. Positive opinion towards bloodfeeders. Not bothered by being fed on.
  • Reviled: “Anyone who drinks blood to survive is a monster.” Negative mood effects for having bloodfeeders in the colony. Positive thoughts from bloodfeeder deaths. Negative opinion towards bloodfeeders. Will not absorb or implant bloodfeeder genes from xenogerms.
Added Ideology precepts related to child labor:
  • Encouraged: “Children build character through work. It’s important for everyone to contribute.” +20% child global work speed. Negative mood offset for adults while a child has recreation assigned.
  • Disapproved: “Childhood is sacred. We should let kids play like kids.” +20% child learn rate factor. Negative mood offset for adults while a child has work assigned.
Added mechanoid labor Ideology precept:
  • Enhanced: “Why should we work when we have machines?” +20% mechanoid work speed. -8% colonist work speed.
Added Ideology precepts related to growth vats:
  • Essential: “We have the technology for safer childbirth and faster childhoods.” 30% quicker growth speed in growth vats. Negative mood when naturally pregnant or with a child outside of a growth vat.
  • Prohibited: “Growth vats rob children of their childhood.” Unable to build growth vats. Negative mood when growth vats are in the colony or children are in growth vats.
Added a new category of precept: Preferred xenotypes.
  • Up to 3 can be chosen at any time. This includes player-created xenotypes. When chosen, believers will be happy to be and be around preferred xenotypes. Believers will be unhappy when they or others are of other xenotypes. Believers will not accept becoming a non-preferred xenotype via reimplant ability or xenogerms. Single-xenotype NPC factions have a chance to generate with this belief about themselves.
Other:
  • Xenogenes count as artificial enhancements for body modders/prosthophobes.
  • Autonomous weapons include colony-controlled mechanoids for precepts.
Smaller new stuff
  • Added child tribalwear.
  • Added an auto load toggle for genepacks. When off, the genepack will not be taken to a gene bank.
  • Added an option for selecting “no trait” on growth letters some of the time if there are more than two trait choices.
  • Added a UI button for absorbing xenogerms of appropriate targets, to help players understand that this option exists.
  • Added social thoughts for giving a lesson to a child and the child receiving a lesson.
  • If a child is unarmed and hasn’t participated in combat at all, raiders will treat them similarly to harmless livestock. This means the raiders will deprioritize them as targets and not hunt them down. It makes unexpected combat more survivable for kids, opens up those “porkchop hiding in the shed” stories and might create some rimworldy strategies.
  • Melee raiders now ignore non-combatants that aren't in LOS when choosing new targets (previously only ranged-attack raiders did).
  • Factionless pawns can spawn with any defined xenotype including those from mods and those which are player-created. Player-created xenotypes must be referred to in an ideoligion, or used as a player starting colonist, to spawn.
  • Added more varieties of yttakin pawn kinds. This means more variety of yttakin raiders and traders.
  • Display recipe ingredient counts on recipe float menu option tooltip.
  • Gases can travel through vents.
Miscellaneous
  • Reduced the power needed for the wastepack atomizer to 400 W.
  • Reduced the work needed for the extract hemogen operation to 500 (from 1500).
  • Adjusted bandwidth costs for scorcher to 1 and lancer to 3.
  • Increased the health of the mechanitor's remote shielder ability to 75/150/225.
  • For the purposes of precepts, autonomous weapons include colony-controlled mechanoids.
  • Increased the availability of gene packs from various traders.
  • Increased frequency of genepacks in quest rewards.
  • Xenogenes count as artificial enhancements for body modders/prosthophobes.
  • Increase the apocriton's health, armor, and damage
  • Apocriton can now cast resurrect without line of sight. This should make him less cheesable in narrow hallway contexts and a bit more scary overall.
  • Yttakin factions no longer get desired apparel precepts, because they’re uncomfortable in all clothes.
  • Buffed furry tail minimum comfy temperature offset to -10 (from -5).
  • We now allow the kind trait to apply in addition to other violence-related genes.
  • Cribs no longer require any research, so tribal colonies can use them in the early game.
  • We now display market value on colony mechs’ inspect pane.
  • Pawn apparel generation takes into account min and max temperature stats per individual pawn rather than per xenotype. This means that yttakin will be less likely to spawn with parkas (they generally don’t need them) and so will look cooler.
  • When a bloodfeeder feeds on a person, the hemogen they gain is now related to how much blood was left in the target. This solves some logical incoherencies, and an exploit that involved keeping a deathless blood-farm and bloodfeeding on them over and over.
  • Reduced the impact and duration of gene loss shock from the gene extractor.
  • As people grow up, their aging rate now smooth scales from child age rate to adult age rate over several years. This prevents the problem of having a lot of 13-year-olds in the colony after raising children.
  • Renamed "child raiders" storyteller setting to "child enemies" to be more accurate.
  • If child enemies are disabled in the storyteller settings, refugees with children will not betray and attack (because that makes children your enemy). We reduced the chance of children spawning in refugee hospitality quests to mitigate balance impact of this.
  • Allow modifying the “child aging rate” and “babies are healthy” storyteller settings even if children are disabled, in case there are already children in the game.
  • Display recipe ingredient counts on recipe float menu option tooltip.
  • Added a "(disliked food)" parenthetical warning on the right-click menu when telling colonists to feed themselves or a patient a food that the eater would dislike. This helps players predict what will happen.
  • A caregiver feeding a patient will now feed them ideologically-venerated food sources if there are no non-venerated food sources.
  • Improved formatting of the research project content source line in the research UI.
  • When a deathless pawn takes damage that would have been lethal and falls into a deathrest coma instead, as an additional consequence they lose 3-6% of XP in a random skill. This should make non-death less trivial for these characters and preserve the sense of risk and danger. We’ll tuned this ongoing as needed.
  • Super-mechanoids cannot be called when there is already another super-mechanoid on the way.
  • Player is given the choice to set mechs to escort when a mechanitor leaves a map.
  • Hemogen UI gizmo no longer displays when multi-selecting pawns, to reduce clutter.
  • Ability UI buttons can now shrink like psycasts if there are too many, to avoid covering the screen.
  • Update the wording of the stillbirth letter to be a bit clearer about the choice of naming the baby, and allow the player to decide not to name the baby.
  • Fathers now get a negative thought if their child is stillborn.
  • If a baby is stillborn from a surrogate mother, the gene-mother gets a negative thought.
  • Updated the apocriton's description to note that it has a jump launcher.
  • If player sends a pregnant colonist on a “pawn lending” quest in a shuttle, and she gives birth during the quest, the baby will be returned with her instead of being kept by the questgiver.
  • Psychic bond now gives a small amount of psychic sensitivity so that it makes more sense, and as an interesting extra bonus.
  • Psychic bonds can now be created during lovin' instead of just on romance attempts. This means that two people who were in a relationship when the gene was implanted can now form a psychic bond after one gets the psychic bonding gene.
  • Psychic lances can't be used on mech bosses (because they trivialize the fight).
  • Added a thing category for mechanitor body parts (used on stockpile config etc.)
  • Updated textures for all super-mechanoid chips to look more appropriately ultratech than archotech.
  • Added a toggle for the glower color picker to disable the darklight-related UI elements for modders that want to re-use the dialog for other things.
  • Pawns away on a PawnLend quest won't have their lactating condition expire if there are any babies with them that can feed.
  • Show birth letter for babies born from lent colonists in a PawnLend quest.
  • Babies born during a pawn lend quest: If a baby is stillborn they are sent to the colony immediately for burial.
  • Display conditional stat affecters from ideoligions in stats page.
  • Optimization: Improved performance of AnyMechsInPlayerFaction and CompOverseerSubject.
  • Add dev tool to add ideology development points.
  • In the 'Completed scan' message sent when subcore scan is cancelled, changed 'cancel load' to 'cancel scan'.
  • Subcore scanners: Added confirmation dialog when cancelling a scan that can kill the occupant.
  • Added description to "force xenogerm implantation" command.
  • Shuffle inherited genes before adding them. Added a debug tool to spawn a baby given two parents.
  • Bringing babies to a safe temperature jobs can now be interrupted.
  • Kid tribalwear no longer lists skin layer twice.
  • Added an alert which displays deathresting pawns who can be safely woken.
  • Gene extractors will cancel extraction and eject the victim if they are without power for a cumulative 24 hours.

Took in a bunch of refugees, then they turned out to be traitors and attacked me! Among them was a knife-wielding 3-year old, little cunt killed my dog.
Brutal game.

When the Outlanders send their people, they aren't sending their best. They're sending people that have a lot of problems. They're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime, they're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

I want to make a mod where a homeless camp sets up outside your base like on the west coast of the USA. There's already mechanics for drugs, mental breakdowns, violence, disease, vandalism, fires, and filth. You'd be able to choose whether you want to kill, enslave, or ignore them. Or if you're charitable, force them into rehab and recruit them.

That wasn't originally Rimworld, but then somebody made it a mod to put into Rimworld after that was posted.
