Resources
RimWorld makes use of a handful of different resources. Resources have to be hauled to the stockpile area in order to be used anywhere in your base.
Current available resources are listed below. Template:Clr
Silver
Silver is used for trading with traders, however they have limited stock of which you can buy from. Silver can be used to buy slaves, resources and weapons. Traders will also buy your resources relevant to the type of trading they handle. Industrial Traders will buy your silver, uranium, metal and wooden planks whilst Combat traders will buy your weapons. Silver can be found like most resources scattered around the map including where your colonists land, in big quantities. Once you have collected the maps silver, the only way to get more silver is to sell other resources or from incidents. Template:Clr
Metal
Metal is the main resource used for construction, it is heavily depended on resource. Metal will appear in different amounts around the map including where your colonists' drop ships land. Metal can also be mined from minerals which are found in mineral veins in the mountains. Industrial traders will also buy and sell metal. Incidents will also see that extra metal reaches the map.
