Work site

From RimWorld Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Work sites are locations on the world map akin to small faction base. They contain pawns and various resources determined from the type of site they are and can be attacked to acquire them. They appear as a quest on the world map and are owned by a faction that is either independent and won't affect any faction relations, or is owned by one of the factions already present and will affect goodwill if attacked. Work sites:

Sites will usually have Gibbet cages with human corpses already present in them. Any sites will also provide food from the pawns killed, usually dropping Pemmican for tribal factions or Simple meals, Fine meals, and Packaged survival meals for higher tech factions.

Pawn kinds[edit]

Specific xenotypes can be found dependent on what faction owns the Work Site, if it is an independent faction, this will be noted under the quest and it will be based on any pre-existing faction on the map for Xenotypes.

Farming sites can have pawns spawned in with a Field hand installed, and Mining sites can have pawns with a Drill arm installed.

  • Spawning mechanics[edit]

    A work site may spawn between 3 and 9 tiles away from your colony. A passable world map tile within that distance is picked at random. Which work site type can be spawned on the tile varies by Biome and, in the case of farming sites, seasonal temperature:

    • Farming sites can only spawn in a Temperate Forest, Temperate Swamp, Tropical Rainforest or Tropical Swamp. An additional requirement for the farming camp to spawn is that the seasonal temperature in the tile is between 6°C and 42°C.
    • Mining sites can only spawn in hilly and mountainous terrain.
    • Hunting sites can spawn in biomes with an animal density that is greater than Desert's. This means that temperate and tropical biomes as well as Arid Shrubland, Boreal Forest, Tundra and Cold Bog can have a hunting site.
    • Logging sites can spawn in biomes with a tree density equal or greater than that of Tundra's. This means that Desert, Extreme Desert, Ice Sheet and Sea Ice are not suitable candidates.

    If the randomly chosen world map tile does not fulfil any of these requirements, no work site will be spawned. This primarily affects Desert, Extreme desert, Ice sheet and Sea ice tiles with flat terrain. If your colony has a large amount of these Biomes nearby on the world map then a work site might never spawn, so the player is advised to keep this in mind when choosing a suitable tile to found a colony in, especially if their ideology contains the Ideoligion#Raiding precept.

    Factions[edit]

    The work site will be owned by a random major or minor Faction. It is:

    • 60% likely to be owned by a minor faction
    • 25% likely to be owned by a major enemy faction
    • 15% likely to be owned by a major neutral or ally faction

    If the player chooses to raid a major neutral or ally faction's work site, this will result in a diplomatic relations hit.
