    My first one was real, started in alpha when animal herds were still gigantic. I then continued way later when solar panels had increased in size and if you scroll down to Flowerville you’ll see the end result. I fooled myself into believing there was no cannibalism, but there’s clearly a corpse hanging out at the dining table. Anyway, without those big herds it’s really hard now, you have to get lucky and get warm clothes asap

      Yes, I’ve seen your base! Amazing that you’ve kept it going since the very beginnings of Rimworld!

      Curious how you got value out of solar power. I was surprised to find that during long stretches of the year there is little to no zero sunlight. I know that’s the case IRL, but didn’t expect it in the game. So I quickly abandoned solar.

        I just kept building panels and batteries to make sure there was always enough power. On my current run I have split the power into three segments so one zzzt doesn’t drain all batteries in one go. Panels are expensive though so it makes wealth high, but it’s free energy so no resources wasted on electricity
