| Bugfixes =  
 
| Bugfixes =  
*Traders, visitors, raiders, kidnappers, animals, etc will now escape if surrounded by walls with no way out.
 
*Manhunters and insects will attack doors if colonists try to hop in and out of them while getting shots off.
 
*Hives must now be tended by insects, so if insects are all instantly killed by a turret wall, the hives will die out.
 
*You can no longer avoid the ‘executed prisoner’ mood impact by just shooting or starving the prisoner; pawns will get a “prisoner died innocent” thought. A similar solution applies to the deaths of colonists.
 
*Solved various powerleveling exploits. Once colonists have learned a certain (high) amount in a day, they’ll learn at a much-reduced rate until the next day.
 
*Flowers are no longer good animal feed (reduced nutrition).
 
*Fixed exploit where players would give prisoner to raiders for kidnapping, to make raiders go away without a fight. Solution: Raiders only kidnap colonists.
