Outdated pages and pages that need updated/more images

Outdated

This automated list is not always up to date and is limited to 100 entries. For a more accurate and complete list, see Category:Pages to be rewritten

A
B
  • Backstories (Rewrite Reason Section:What pages are up to date, what should be obsoleted, is there a point in keeping the player-created backstories in that format vs just having the characters etc.)
  • Beauty (Rewrite Reason Fragmented and does not present the information in a new-player-friendly, or holistic fashion. It should start with the object stat and then progress to its applications. Also see other needs for reference in adequate detail re: rise and fall rates, thresholds, etc.)
  • Beckon (Rewrite Reason Section:1) Currently just a Copy-paste of minor tactics previously on Psycasts - needs verification, rewriting, formatting, and expansion 2) using on friendlies? No goodwill penalty?)
  • Berry bush (Rewrite Reason Verification and updating needed)
  • Berserk (psycast) (Rewrite Reason Section:Currently just a Copy-paste of minor tactics previously on Psycasts - needs verification, rewriting, formatting, and expansion)
  • Berserk pulse (Rewrite Reason Section:Currently just a Copy-paste of minor tactics previously on Psycasts - needs verification, rewriting, formatting, and expansion)
  • Bill (Rewrite Reason Tone, page integration in this page and elsewhere on this wiki, mechanics)
  • Biomes (Rewrite Reason Verification needed. At least a couple of the growing periods for the biomes are wrong, though their exact ranges are unknown.)
  • Bionic tongue (Rewrite Reason Section:Format standard)
  • Birch tree (Rewrite Reason Verification and updating needed)
  • Blind smoke (Rewrite Reason Needs detail on 1.4 gas mechanics)
  • Body Parts (Rewrite Reason Majority of this page seems redundant with the table now, and this page gets so little traffic that it's rarely updated. Consider overhaul. retain mechanics)
  • Body part weapons (Rewrite Reason Section:Mostly copy paste of power claw, needs to be genericised and expanded)
  • Build roof area (Rewrite Reason Format standard)
  • Burden (Rewrite Reason Section:Currently just a Copy-paste of minor tactics previously on Psycasts - needs verification, rewriting, formatting, and expansion)
C
  • Cape (Rewrite Reason 1) Appears to be defined in core now, but requires Royalty or Biotech to be present? Verify and rewrite/retag accordingly 2) Format standard - summary section needed with info from other sections moved there)
  • Caravan (Rewrite Reason Missing biomes and existing ones, and the effect of temperature and/or winter need to be verified., Section:Cleanup, potential size reduction, updating from A16 -> Present, Section:Cleanup, verification, integration with Foraged Food Amount)
  • Carpet (Rewrite Reason 1) 1.4 color overhaul, account for new cleaning time factor.)
  • Cecropia tree (Rewrite Reason Verification and updating needed)
  • Chaos skip (Rewrite Reason Section:Currently just a Copy-paste of minor tactics previously on Psycasts - needs verification, rewriting, formatting, and expansion)
  • Character Types (Rewrite Reason Largely useless and overly dependent on transclusions)
  • Children (Rewrite Reason Section:Ageless now stops at 18.5. Update ageless calc accordingly)

  • Cover (Rewrite Reason Updating, cleanup and Verification needed. Also suggest subheadings, better separation of mechanics and analysis, and probably removal of the manual lists in favour of just having the automated expanding list displayed more prominently (keep it collapsed tho))
  • Creepjoiner (Rewrite Reason table ala Psycasts with ids flr crosslinking, ability icons (where relevant) and mechanical details)
D
E
F
  • Farskip (Rewrite Reason Section:Currently just a Copy-paste of minor tactics previously on Psycasts - needs verification, rewriting, formatting, and expansion)
  • Fine carpet (Rewrite Reason New 1.4 color system. Account for new cleaning time factor)
  • Flashstorm (psycast) (Rewrite Reason Section:Currently just a Copy-paste of minor tactics previously on Psycasts - needs verification, rewriting, formatting, and expansion)
  • Floors (Rewrite Reason Section:Tone, detail, cleanup and expansion - bring information around to mechanical effects (e.g. Cleanliness good because directly affects impressiveness/research speed etc). Potential split needed - Summary (effects of flooring) and analysis (Selection and strategies) per Format Standard)
  • Focus (Rewrite Reason Section:Currently just a Copy-paste of minor tactics previously on Psycasts - needs verification, rewriting, formatting, and expansion)
G
  • Gas mask (Rewrite Reason Section:Written before insulation and armor changes. Verify stats are correct, add them to the version history log and then rewrite/expand comparisonto helmets. note blunt armornis comparable to plasteel simple or steel flak)
  • Glow pod (Rewrite Reason Format standardisation, fleshbulb is a decent precedent)

H
I
L
  • Limestone blocks (Rewrite Reason Format standard- proper intro paragraph, summary/analysis into their own sections. Analysis needs comparison to both other stone and other materials for common use cases)
  • Loading screen (Rewrite Reason Outdated. Also could be better interlinked)
  • Lua (Rewrite Reason Lots of bad links that have been disabled to remove them from wanted pages, but the documentation needs to be updated to see what is actually necessary.)
  • Lua/doc (Rewrite Reason Lots of bad links that have been disabled to remove them from wanted pages, but the documentation needs to be updated to see what is actually necessary.)
L cont.
M
N
  • Neural heat dump (Rewrite Reason Section:Currently just a Copy-paste of minor tactics previously on Psycasts - needs verification, rewriting, formatting, and expansion)
  • Nociosphere (Rewrite Reason Cleanup, formatting, subheadings etc, and then once that is done, verify that all content is suitably covered)
  • Note (Rewrite Reason Red links to pages and templates spamming the "Wanted pages" page. Links cannot just be removed they must be checked to see that the context they represented in the original location (likely copied from Wikipedia) is maintained)
  • Note label (Rewrite Reason Red links to pages and templates spamming the "Wanted pages" page. Links cannot just be removed they must be checked to see that the context they represented in the original location (likely copied from Wikipedia) is maintained)
  • Nutrition (Rewrite Reason Content and analysis should likely be shifted to other pages (and linked to from here) such as Food, Saturation, Animals, and Plants as it is beyond the scope of just Nutrition)

General To-do List

Needs to be done list: (Feel free to do these if you know how!) (italic = minor, bold = major)

  • Pages: Assign tab currently only has a brief overview on the menu page. Outfits, Food policies and Drug policies each need individual pages. Mayoculpa (talk) 12:19, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Defs: Def elements might be something useful to add in for technical reference/modder wannabes. This stuff is being constantly revised and constructed upon, so it's your choice whether to make it its own page or to integrate it as part of another page (e.g. Colonist). I've only covered a small amount of defs (see Category:Defs for a list), and that was a year ago. Longbyte1 (talk) 05:05, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
  • Menus#Schedule needs a section and image for showing the addition of meditation by Royalty. Harakoni (talk) 05:02, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
  • Market values: Mindscrew, Flatscreen television & Ground-penetrating scanner have market values at odds with their calculated market value. They could be manually set or there could be a bug in the market value calculation (like there is for prestige armor) or the articles could be wrong. They need to be checked in game. Harakoni (talk) 08:10, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

Updates and maintenance needed on the Wiki

  • Freshen up the frontpage, and if nothing else, change from a table to div setup --> In progress by Pangaea
  • Add an Admin noticeboard --> DONE by Pangaea
    • Not properly integrated or accessible from the rest of the wiki and thus of limited use. More work is likely needed Harakoni (talk) 08:10, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
  • Add Community portal to the Sidebar (and maybe re-order it slightly? See Wikipedia's system)
  • Update some of the default footer pages, as they seem outdated currently --> Partially done by Pangaea
  • Given a fitting license, borrow content from other wikis and improve and expand our Help sections
  • Add articles for each technology and skill, with fitting templates
  • Purge outdated SMW entities: (see Statistics) --> DONE by Hypolite
  • Edit or make new screenshots without (so many) UI elements, as seen for instance in the Events page
  • An RSS feed for news would be nice, but looks like we'd need this extension for it. Could perhaps put it on the frontpage then. Pangaea (talk) 13:21, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Template: STDT tables don't play nice with Template: infobox main and ToC as described here. This issue doesn't occur with wikitable class tables, so it is likely an issue with the STDT table and not the infobox. It might be related to the definitions in MediaWiki:Common.css as thats where the "c_01" values are defined. Unfortunately I don't know enough about the wiki formatting or the .css to fix it. There is a working hack but ideally we could make a fix thats native to STDT and not have to worry about it anymore. Harakoni (talk) 11:43, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Finish the page Help:Templates#Creating_a_template.

Suggestions

  • Install the MobileFrontend-extension -- Crasheripot
  • LinkSuggest: Useful for new users to easier create links without knowing the ins and outs of the page names.
  • RandomSelection: This can be neat on the main page for various gameplay tips and such, which then get randomly selected. Not sure if there would be a good use for it with this game, but I have seen it used to good effect on other wikis, such as Witcher 3.

Large projects

The following page groups need to have a standardized format with adequate detail decided, have that standard applied over the entire group, and then brought up to quality. These are all relatively large, multi-page jobs, many including many pages that aren't just non-standard but outright stubs, but it can be done piecemeal. The important part is getting a suitable standard first.

I'm not sure anyone will take this on, but I'd appreciate any help, even if its just adding suggestions to the suggested standards below Harakoni (talk) 05:50, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Page type Suggested detail/sections
Plants
  • For plantables: Growing section using Template: Grow Table
  • For plantables: Economy - Proper analysis on their production compared to other producers of the same type (e.g. Food or Wood plants), as well as economic concerns - profitabiltiy with and without crafting, work/product, work/silver, tiles/product/day, tiles/silver/day etc.
  • Production strategies, e.g. how worth each is to put in hydroponics, greenhouses, whether to wall in, esp relevant for devilstrand
Animals
  • Trainability, diet, habitats, combat skills and analysis (seriously lacking atm), production economy, stragegies for combat/acquisition/use
Drugs
  • Acquistion/crafitng information standardized with note on whether it uses Drug Synthesis Speed or Drug Cooking Speed
  • High effects - both hediff, as well as recreation add and mood buff, and duration.
  • Tolerance and Severity gains
  • Addiction effects
  • Withdrawal effects
  • Effects for mtb to chemical damage etc.
  • Analysis of effectivness for use (e.g. combat buff for Yayo and Go juice, mood buffs for social and hard drugs etc.)
  • Comparison of production compared to other drugs in the same class as part of above
  • Comparison of economies, like is currently available for Flake and Yayo, but for all drugs. If you're only selling it, you don't need to assume psychoid plants are the only thing you can grow - needs analysis per pawn work (inc. sowing, harvesting, and crafting work), per unit time, and per tile of grow space.
Weapons Largely have a functional standard following the traditional Acquistion/Summary/Analysis/Quality Table method, but pages are all out of date and in need of massive updates. Additionally, a way to display quality information for different materials is also needed. Talk to User: Harakoni for this last bit - ideas are in teh workds for updating Template: Weapon Quality Table but work is needed.
Production facilities Workbenches like the smithy, tailoring becnh etc.
  • Acquisition - self evident
  • Summary - general information about it use, with the use of Template:Recipe List to what is produced there (except when theres only 1 thing produced there)
  • Analysis - how vital is it to get, and comparison between fueled/hand version vs electric.
  • Template:Building_Material_Table
Diseases
Recreation Standardized recreation comparison - tables with time to recreate etc.
Traps IEDs and spike traps. Standardisation and comparisons - see Security table for start.
Sculpture Sculpture, Small sculpture, Large sculpture, Grand sculpture,
Artificial body parts Almost all of them need a dedicated summary section of their mechanics
Illumination area Add similar images in style/quality/content to Standing lamp#Illumination area by User:SyntaxTerror to all items that put off light. Torch lamp, sun lamp, wood fired generators, mech nodes, the ancient lamps from sideology, etc.

Pawn stats

The following stats are the ones currently in the game as of Version/1.2.2753, several aren't even on the wiki, and many of the pages are out date and/or are not properly structured to automatically link to the relevant capacity Harakoni (talk) 05:52, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Version/1.3.3117

Yet another update. Slowly falling behind here. Harakoni (talk) 02:55, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

Multi-ideo colony viability

  • Pawns of any ideo can now spectate any ritual, even if it's not of their own ideo.
  • Rebalanced social ideo thought opinion offsets to make multi-ideo colonies much more viable.
  • Allow celebrating rituals for an ideo even if there's not enough members to create an obligation.
  • Members of ideoligions that dislike diversity get a negative thought from participating in rituals from other ideoligions.
  • Ritual setup dialog now says what ideoligion the ritual comes from.

New stuff

  • Gaining, changing, or removing a role now requires a simple ritual.
  • Some things, like rock chunks, are now considered beautiful when outdoors but ugly when indoors. This solves a problem where a person standing in a nice forest will think their surroundings are ugly.
  • While starting a game with fluid ideoligions, you can now customize and load NPC faction ideoligions.
  • Skullspikes now display whose skull is contained inside on their inspect pane.
  • Added a precept related to Darkness meme that gives believers a positive thought during an eclipse.

Improvements

  • Blind pawns' stats are now unaffected by light and darkness.
  • Adjust the role tooltip area on the pawn's social tab.
  • Empire will now properly respond to player giving the bestower serious heatstroke or hypothermia or allowing it to happen.

  • Mutilation ritual expectation alert now only shows the pawns who actually want to be scarified or blinded.
  • Increased chance for ancient security crates to spawn in ancient complexes.

  • We now warn player if important plants like anima trees are marked for cutting or in grow zone.
  • Improved UI feedback in trade window when pawn refuses to sell another pawn into slavery due to the ideo.
  • Having a missing tongue now gives a negative mood thought because it's frustrating when you can't speak because your tongue was cut out.
  • We now warn the player if they are trying to put a pawn in a regeneration or medic cycle that would not heal any conditions.
  • Extreme blood loss reduces consciousness by 40% and sets the capacity's max to 10%.
  • Improve feedback when we cannot assign a pawn to ritual role by clicking their portrait in the ritual setup dialog.
  • Change to randomized memes for fluid ideo based on feedback.

Fixes

  • Fix: Cancelling a caravan, then selling those animals, causes them to stay roped to the caravan gathering spot until they sleep.

  • Fix: Text of funeral ritual states bonus awards are available after randomizing name.
  • Fix: Totemic sculpture is pixelated.

  • Fix: Wind turbine, neural supercharger and skullspike have no path costs.
  • Fix: Leader speech generates "could not reserve" errors.

  • Fix: Archonexus quest line cannot be continued if map part holder faction defeated.
  • Fix: Mechanoids can spawn in Ancient Ruins when they are disabled in map generation, and behave oddly.
  • Fix: Can save/load ideo when you shouldn't be able to.
  • Fix: Regression * Colonists no longer automatically take yayo and a few other drugs.
  • Fix: When a faction is defeated the faction goodwill number and relation label overlap.
  • Fix: Pawns ignore food restrictions and bring nutrient paste to prisoner
  • Fix: You can assign a role changer of non-player ideo on the ritual config screen.
  • Fix: Bestower sometimes arrives malnourished.
  • Fix: Gaumaker pods can destroy the tree they are spawned from
  • Fix: Ritual timings are 1 day off.
  • Fix: Trader caravans have their animals leave the map on arrival when attempting to path through doors.
  • Fix: Gaumaker pods can destroy the tree they are spawned from.
  • Fix: Cannot plant flowers/bonsai trees in plant pots when there is a floor covering beneath the pot.
  • Fix: 'No recent raid' thoughts for raiding precepts can occur immediately after reform or archonexus restart.
  • Fix: Wardens stop suppressing slaves if suppression > 50%.
  • Fix: Beggar quest can grant fail and complete bonus simultaneously if the original timer expires after beggars have been given items
  • Fix: Skip abilities don't update cover grid.

Version/1.3.3101

New stuff

  • Add new fluid ideo system. This allows you to start the game with a "fluid" ideoligion that has only one meme. Over time, you gain development points on that ideoligion by completing rituals and other ideoligion-related actions. With *nough development points, you can reform the ideoligion to alter memes or precepts, change styles, change structure, and more.
  • Add darklight braziers.
  • Predators no longer hunt animals on the other side of fences. Predators can still randomly wander into animal pens.
  • Add an alert to thell the player when a predator has wandered into a pen in use.
  • The game now shows the source of each piece of content on its stats card, so you know which expansion/mod something came from. It also shows which expansion/mod each research project came from.
  • Players can now choose a few items to bring to new archonexus settlement. This is especially helpful for things you really need like luciferium.
  • Add grace period where expectation levels are not increased for pawns with certain ideology roles after starting new archonexus settlement.
  • Add tongue body part. Tongue is removable via surgery, if you'd prefer someone not speak. The tongue won't be damaged in combat.
  • Add allow slave corpse toggle to various storage areas and buildings so you can separate slave corpses from colonist corpses.
  • Added new ancient junk - additional mech parts for more visual variation, more ancient cars, wheels, etc.
  • Added toggleable texture compression and atlas texture compression in the options menu.

Improvements

  • Update royal title room requirement grace period to include the first 10 days after a new archonexus settlement.
  • Draw lines when placing blueprints displaying what would affect Gauranlen trees' connection strength. Display the artificial buildings connection strength loss radius when the tree is selected.
  • We now remove ship to stars tile from map after new archonexus settlement, confirm the player is okay with this.
  • On ritual config window, draw a highlight over pawns that can be assigned to a role you're currently hovering over.
  • Extractable trees are no longer auto-minifiable in caravan forming dialog.
  • We now hide quests that are ended by starting a new archonexus settlement
  • Re-enabled random social interactions for bestowing ceremony and fixed it breaking down when pawns start social fighting.
  • Starting with an ideoligion that dislikes animal bonding now causes all starting animals to be unbonded.
  • Tweaked the archonexus "choose items to take to new colony" dialog formatting.
  • The mood bonus for relics in the same room as ritual can be now increased by installing up to 3 relics. Adjusted mood impacts.
  • Ideoligion buildings are now only demanded for the player's faction ideoligion and secondary ideoligions that have 3 colonist members or more.
  • Destroying rocks with weapons now triggers a bad thought for ideoligions where mining is disapproved.
  • Change ritual quality check graphics to look less like togglable ones for better UI clarity.
  • Don't show anima linking command on every nature focus capable pawn anymore, to reduce UI spam. You can still start it via float command or from anima tree directly.
  • Pawns now recover from berserk trance on being downed.
  • Dryad healing pods now heal all negative hediffs including missing body parts. When return to healing pod is toggled on, dryads will return to healing pods if they have any missing parts.
  • Skulls now keep track of the name of the pawn they originated from.
  • Update descriptions of individualist and collectivist memes.
  • We now avoid using sun blocker as a threat if any colonist or prisoner has an ideo with darkness/tunneler, since it's kind of meaningless to them.
  • Add note about work to deconstruct to 'work to build' stat description.
  • Adjust some thought descriptions so that they still make sense for blind people.
  • Minified things now inherit their inner thing's flammability.
  • Removed culture restrictions when choosing ideoligion
  • Changed extract tree hotkey to be the same as uninstalling.
  • Smoothed out tree cutting anger thought from the tree connection meme by adding more steps in between the stages.

Tuning

  • Dryad spawn days reduced from 8 to 6.
  • Increase impact of 'lost role' thought from -5 to -15.
  • Reduce intensity of 'ate meat' opinion maluses for vegetarians.

  • Fix: Mech breach raids can completely break down sometimes and just stop doing anything.
  • Fix: Players can take items from passing trade ship inventory to next archonexus settlement
  • Fix: Dryads with replaced parts don't have the "missing" part added back.
  • Fix: Totemic boards and ideoligion rugs are not flammable.

1.2.2719 and 1.1.2654 Update

1.2.2719 and 1.1.2654 Update

As always. This time around, no need to strikeout completed items- just delete them right away. PigeonGuru ( talk | contribs | assist ) 04:51, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

The 1.2 release of RimWorld adds a variety of new content and a few new systems.

There are a few major parts to this update.

New stuff: Base game

  • Raid loot generation: Previously raids would just drop whatever rewards were associated with the characters in that raid. Now, each raid generates a single core reward like a stack of drugs, medicine, jade, or plasteel. The reward is chosen semi-randomly according to the raider faction, and placed in the inventory of a few of the raiders. This allows us and users to accurately tune raid rewards, and solves issues where higher difficulties got bigger rewards.
  • Automatic caravan setup: The caravan setup screen now automatically loads enough food and medicine for the journey. This can be overridden if desired. This interface was also restructured to ask for the route first, and to clean up placement of some UI elements. Overall, caravan forming takes less effort and fewer clicks.
  • New system for handling time limits on caravan encounter maps. Previously on encounter maps, the player caravan was just automatically reformed after a certain amount of time. Now, the colonists will be detected by enemies after some time. Later, enemy reinforcements will begin arriving to attack. The player can choose when to leave, and this scenario can play out even on maps where other enemies remain (e.g. If player is executing a siege).
  • Direct button to use drugs from inventory: This makes combat drugs more usable.
  • New visual effects:
    • Improvements to orbital bombardments. You can see and hear incoming projectiles and other details are improved.
    • EMP state on mechs or turrets, with electrical arcs and sparks.

New stuff: Royalty expansion

  • Bandits set up problem causer incident: This is a new way hostiles can threaten you besides raiding you. Now, sometimes they will set up a camp near your colony from which they will harass you using some kind of problem causer device, like a weather controller or smoke spewer. You have to attack the camp and eliminate it.
  • Abasia disease incident: This random incident makes someone in the colony get paralytic abasia, which paralyzes them for a while.
  • Blood rot disease incident: This random incident makes someone in the colony get blood rot, which requires regular medical treatment for a while.
  • Abasia joiner incident: In this random incident, someone joins you, but they have paralytic abasia, so they must recover from that before they can work. It's your choice whether you want to heal them and let them join, or handle them another way.

Improvements and adjustments

  • Underground resources readout now shows what resource is in each underground cell and how many there are.

Updates needed before 1.0

Modding

Since the contents of this section are a bit harder to document and not as relevant to the majority of people visiting the wiki, I will put a collapse here for the time being.

  • Modders can now add “def modifiers” which, instead of replacing a whole def, change specific fields of that def. This allows multiple mods to change the same def without wiping each others’ changes (unless they change the same field, of course).
  • Information on how to use def modifiers is in this forum thread: [https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=32735.0]
  • Various enums are now defs so modders can add new ones (TrainableIntelligence , DamageArmorCategory, ImpactSoundType, ReservationLayer, BillRepeatMode, PrisonerInteractionMode, FleshType).
  • GUI tables (like most of the main tabs along the bottom of the screen) are now defined by data, making it easier to add, rearrange, sort, and change columns on the UI.
  • Increasing skill relevance
  • Mining skill reworked: Steeper speed penalty for low skill. Mining yield is now slightly dependent on mining skill.
  • Work tab boxes are easier to identify skill level for visually.
