Ultimate Farming Guide Rimworld 1.5

[@Noobert]

Id like to thank the cool folks in our discord that helped get this video translated before it came out French - Kuuran Portuguese - Dogits and Igor Serbian - Matejaskap Spanish - qwert yuiop

[@vitaobatera]

Awesome effort to put it out in other languages!! Also, are you able to record in 4K? It makes the text much more visible with 1.5x UI, even if it's smaller.

"Fire and blight dont pass through walls and can't open doors" - Noobert 4:25 **Builds walls and doors out of very flammable wood**

[@TaurusTheCrazyBull]

Should have made It out of steel, as we know, steel Is very resistant to fire with It's 100% flammability, completely Immune

[@BrutusAlbion]

@@TaurusTheCrazyBull it's actually only 40% flammable which is just enough to have it keep burning for a very very long time and also spread through your base. But that's something we all could have known since 911 since reinforced steel beams just melt away at a small fire.

[@TaurusTheCrazyBull]

@@BrutusAlbion Oh, I thought It was as flammable as wood, I guess I forgot cause I Ignore steel walls since It's more expensive than wood without the certainty of stone

[@BrutusAlbion]

​@@TaurusTheCrazyBull Some things have higher flammability than 100% like carpets, they've got something like 200% flammability. You can notice this in game in the way fire spreads rapidly on carpeted surfaces. Steel meanwhile doesn't burn very fast and it spreads less quickly due to its lower flammable rate of 40% It's still silly it burns though, so stone is the superior resource for building.

You put a vanometric cell and a heater right next to a geothermal spot. That would've been the perfect setup to talk about natural heating.

Nice to see Noobert is still learning as well, as he's actively listening to himself at 9:40

[@jonksto]

instructions unclear, accidentally planted the fleshmass heart

[@KnownAsKenji]

@2:18 Extra tip here, you can use Planning zones on Fertile tiles to help keep track of exactly where they are without having to go back into the Fertility overlay, harvesting and re-planting doesn't remove them like building does, and as an added bonus it makes it a lot easier to see Rice which tends to look a bit scattered most of the time.

[@Lucaspeeetarbitrage]

Create a zone surrounding your home and plant a cocoa tree or any tree on the growing zone. After it's grown, it'll act as a sort of shield from bullets and cover to hide behind.

[@Noobert]

true but trees only provide 70% cover so in a tough spot or when you have time to build. walls are def better

[@Wholleh]

Nice and informative video ! 4:17 A quick google search would tell you that blight does jump walls : "It can spread three tiles away, even through walls, so you need a four-wide gap between zones to avoid spread." Seems accurate for the rest though !

[@raymondtheruthless]

Glad to see new official dlc & other content being made for this game. Rimworld is really fun with many different ways to play. I would def recommend it to anyone who likes this style of game.

Thank you Tynan Alt account very cool

[@LASCH_B10]

Back when the game was in beta I remember telling myself this is it, I have found the definitive game, I never imagined how the community would continue to create content, also I was taking by surprise by the announcement of a DLC after a few years after release, hell I even stopped playing for a few years, only to comeback with two more dlcs I was completely unaware of... The game is truly amazing

[@gratuitouslurking8610]

Naturally of course these numbers are skewed as soon as mods get involved. I wonder how Canola's numbers on work and fertility compare for example, as it's entire purpose is to be processed chemfuel crop, or of course you have Chemroot which skips the middleman and just gives chemfuel at the cost of being EXTREMELY volatile.

[@jacobgeiger4589]

I like to do chemroot plots on the outsides of my base with metal fences (no burn metal mod is a go to for me too) then if I get raided I just set the field ablaze for a perfect fire mote. As long as your interiors are heavily insulated and/or well developed with A/C units and vents there is minimal impact to the pawns other than having to wait out the flames to go harvest outside the walls

[@9KingP]

i started playing a few months after 1.4 and biotech, i was so confused about the game, i dont know where to start and what mods to use. Now with the new update and upcoming DLC i can finally start anew and be guided, thanks for your vids man!

[@meemigemeemes7875]

Just to getting more confused with one dlc and Content more😂 But keep playing and you will be good pal

[@9KingP]

@@meemigemeemes7875 more content is better, it offers alot of things some of the vanilla cant provide like new xenotypes/equipment/mechanics heck even vehicles but yeah it can be overwhelming. I stuck with the base game for 2 years mind you no mods. Anyways you too buddy

[@fuchsmichael93]

I would look for some essentials first, Stuff like AllowTool, RimHUD or Dubs Mint Menu. QoL first, then tackle the Vanilla Expanded Modlist, given it´s pretty big by now. So look through what you want.

[@Nikanoru]

Ngl I love my underground fungal gravel caverns filled with nutrifungus. I grow devilstrand on it too.

[@cyberwarlord7363]

Planting a small varietie helps give option with preservation and emergency rations. Also lets you tune the work/payout a bit.

If you want to optimize the rich soil plots on your farm I suggest you use the soil relocation framework mod.

[@Endgunner]

So pretty much the EXACT same as 1.4 farming.

[@dr.razor174]

I really don't get the need for these guides. They spend so much time throwing useless numbers around, forgetting costs to try to improve a very niche scenario in a story generator game that's more fun to roleplay and go with the flow. Even then, they're mainly going for quantity over quality with these vids. Plus the fact that nothing much changes with any of the updates. Also the Discord pings in the background is just.. it's so lazy :(

[@cadenbohannon9988]

@@dr.razor174I agree.

[@Endgunner]

@@dr.razor174 Yeah the Discord pings were annoying, and the video was fairly lazy. I was mostly just pointing out the clickbait tittle. But the information overall is pretty useful though. Even if most of the numbers were most likely hella off.

I do my plots as 11x5 with a 1wide walkway between them, just out of personal preference. nice to know i do it almost optimally!

[@nightshade2343]

There are some intresting vanilla expanded mods coming our would you make a video on them?

[@johnMa7869]

Hey cool Video, just started with Rimworld and that guide helped a lot :D although the Music distracted sometimes from your voice and made it a bit difficult to listen. Im still going to watch your other videos now as well but maybe you could look into that in the future 😊

[@Seldion]

A wall can support up to 6 spaces away, there for a 13x13 structure is actually the max you can do with out supports, you can how ever make it 13xEct or Ectx13 so long as one of the number is 13

[@ralf7823]

actually 12x(go as long as you want here) is the max room size before you need extra supports. the only downside would be that there is no middle for a door. Just use 2 doors in that case

[@110montauk8]

We are getting double size doors on 1.5

[@letsplaysvonaja1714]

​@@110montauk8which is ironic, since thrones are either one or three wide, so double doors would only be "compatible" if you have two nobles

The sunlamp won't reach that size that's why I said 11 by 11 :)

[@ralf7823]

Ah ok, probably missunderstood that part then. I was only thinking about the max size with upholding the roof away from the walls.

[@totallynotcass7732]

Ok but what mod's that helmet your writer is wearing at 1:34 from

[@darkcasterpunkzero7870]

Farming is cool and all but what about military organization?? Its getting too frustrating to me that there is no way to arrange my armed colonist into groups nor draft them as one unit. Could've been cool if that Grouping in the mech section is also implemented for the colonist.

[@alamrasyidi4097]

can we get a spreadsheet for the crop to power conversion...?

[@republicadelconosur]

Love when farming actually means farming in a game and not grinding

[@tonywade7473]

Something I would like to know is can cave fungus/plants be stimulated to grow in poker boomed, a map dominated by mushrooms would be a nice change of scenery on the rim.

[@seraphonica]

Interesting that you note fire will be able to transfer via flammable building materials... then you get to discussing walls and they're made of wood ^^;;

[@oceanbytez847]

I live in a cold climate that is so cold year round i need double walled buildings and multiple heaters just to not freeze. That being said a double stone wall has the added benefit of being even more resistant to raids than single ones.

Wattdays is not the same as Watts/day. The latter makes no sense, the former is a unit of energy.

[@teebob21]

It's a Watt-day. 1 Watt of power continuously generated for 1 day. It's similar to a watt-hour, or as you are likely more familiar with them, kilowatt-hours (kWh), the unit the real-world power company uses to bill you and measure consumption.

Major problem with adding walls if you can't power the sun lamps The wall shadow reduces growth throughout the day

[@ethanmc97]

Wall shadows are 100% cosmetic and have no effect on growth.

Can fencing block fire or blight?

[@sneezyfido]

Neither probably. I think I saw both happen in my fence period

[@SerLagsalot]

Videos like these put me ina weird limbo state. I absolutely LOVE how informative and data driven this is, but the moment I actually try to understand the data? My dyscal kicks in and it just turns into a blur, even though the presentation here is as simple as one might expect. I do kind of which it was presented in terms like hydro-bays of X plant per generator rather than in individual fuel and energy units.

[@Mike__B]

So what actually changed between 1.5 and older versions? Most everything that was said is what I have been doing anyways in every older version.

[@Noobert]

growth times for some things have changed as well as some other numerical metrics

[@Slider93]

Last decade was minecraft, this decade is rimworld

[@kamyarhamidii]

Tree farming isn’t quite working! Even I’d installed 2 heaters with temperature set to 40 but the tree farming greenhouse isn’t working due to bad temperature! Inside and outside temperatures are exactly the same and heaters aren’t working with 28 tiles of open roof!

[@blshouse]

Unit (like former professional baseball pitcher, Randy Johnson) is the word you were saying while unite (as in the States of America) was written in the video. Just saying.

[@leahnzastrzelecki5217]

I just want to list my favorite exploit-y method for greenhouses. If you have the mod *Vanilla Plants Expanded* you get eggplants, which get a growth boost (I think it's around +30%) if it's grown in temperatures of 37C or higher. Now, I like to make a greenhouse next to my freezer and let the heat exhaust from the freezer's coolers point into the eggplant greenhouse--that can get you pretty close to 37+, but I always install a heater to make sure it's consistently 37+ when the outdoor temperature drops and your freezer isn't dumping as much heat. Slap in one cooler to make sure your pawns stay sweaty but don't get heatstroke and you're all set. Or use agrihands. That temperature bonus stacks with hydroponics, so you can get a plant at a little over 300% growth rate right next to your storage for convenience and a lowered energy cost for the heaters! I did the math for this a while back, but I'm too lazy to redo it just for a yt comment, but heated eggplants did beat out almost all other crops, vanilla and modded, that I had.
