I use Android Tiers, Glittertech (no surgery), and Rimatomics. My colonies always end up with just the most insane defenses with super powered androids.

Anyone who makes their way to my colony will find the most lavish place on the rim.

    I always end up with:

    • Crappy prisons
    • “Tattered clothing”
    • cowboy heads
    • Assault riffles
    • Amazing sculptures
    • Food shortages
    • Way too big raids
    • Death

      You can automate the tattered clothing thing!
      In your assignment tab, go to the outfit menu and for each outfit change the condition to 51-100%. This will tell your colonists to not wear anything less than 51% condition clothing.
      In your tailor bench, set up some jobs to keep a minimum stock of X items for each bill and change the condition in that as well to 51-100.

      Now your colonists will strip any “tattered” clothing (condition 1-50%) and automatically put on the available clothes that aren’t tattered. As they take the clothes, your crafter/tailor will eventually spin up a new item to replace the one that was taken.

        Haven’t played in a while but I seem to remember your workstations would lose their parameters when destroyed. Is that a thing, or did I make that up?

    My colonists have decent weapons, decent armor, defenses and lodging, but what they really have is games and food. Tons of it. #1 place to game, dine, and get drunk. Or have your coffee, if you don’t drink.

    All colonies are merely a stopgap measure of resources gathering so we can begin the true game, hotel management!

    I usually go rough start but with legendary weapons & water wheel/solar panel, then just see what happens.

    it gets kinda boring if there’s no challenge, but naked start is too hard
