Solar pinhole
Solar pinhole is a level 1 psycast that creates a source of light and heat for a duration.
Acquisition
There are two ways to acquire the psycast Solar pinhole:
- Upon reaching psylink level 1, a random psycast of level 1 is granted regardless of how this level up is achieved. This won't apply if the psycaster already knew one or more level 1 psycast.
- Solar pinhole can also be acquired from a psytrainer naming it. See the psytrainer page for further details.
Summary
Analysis
 | This section is suggested to be rewritten. Reason: Currently just a Copy-paste of minor tactics previously on Psycasts - needs verification, rewriting, formatting, and expansion. You can help the RimWorld Wiki by improving it. |
Solar pinhole can be used to warm rooms during a cold snap if you don't have enough heaters. Since solar pinholes are relatively inexpensive psyfocus-wise, multiple can be cast if needed.
Use it when mining deep underground to avoid the darkness work speed penalty without having to build long, temporary, and/or redundant infrastructure.
Also good for icesheet or other places where heat and light are hard to fuel pre-electricity. Getting lucky with the right random psycast can lessen a colony's dependence on geysers and allow more rapid and/or flexible expansion.
