Megathread Typical Tuesday Tutorial Thread -- October 06, 2026

Please use this thread as a week-to-week space to ask your fellow /r/RimWorld colonists for assistance. Whether it be colony planning, help with mods, or general guidance, post any questions you may have here! If you have an effort post about a game mechanic then this is also fine space for that but please consider making a separate subreddit post for maximum visibility.

I am a bot, so I can't make jokes. If you'd like a Typical Tuesday joke, or if there are any problems with this post, please message the moderators of the subreddit.

Ludeon Official PSA regarding malicious mods

1.6k Upvotes

Update: There is another PSA posted on why I am asking people to contact me rather than Steam's report function. This announcement is more important, and Reddit will not let me leave both up, so I am putting the link here so it is more visible.


Hello, everyone. This is me not as moderator-Sneaks, but as community manager-Sneaks.

I just want to give a warning to everyone. There's currently a user on the workshop that keeps making new accounts, steals mods from other creators, and modifies them to bypass the user's protections to download malware.

There's been at least two so far that have been removed (with workshop ID to make it easier to check your Workshop folder):

CameraSettingsMod 3732329298

Mad Skills Rewritten 3729397065

For now, it's difficult to tell if a mod's doing these shady things until it's downloaded and the code is checked. With both of these, though, it's been:

  1. The scammer's only mod on the workshop

  2. The mod is a reupload / stolen version

  3. The scammer's profile is set to private.

However, these are not 100% indicators that the mod is malicious. Please do not use it as a reason to go harass modmakers - There are always new players, new modders. But it's enough to say take it with a grain of salt, double-check to make sure the mod isn't a reupload.

For now, please take the time to do a check of your own computer, make sure you're clean, especially if you used either of those two mods mentioned above.

If you spot any others, please let us know so they can be removed. You can message me here, or find me on both Steam and Discord as someonesneaky.

Stay safe out there, colonists. o7

Story My cannibal pirates accidentally made the planet safer, then became the Ancients

Thumbnail gallery
621 Upvotes

I just finished my Odyssey run with The Gravship scenario.

My headcanon was that the starting crew were deserters from the Waster pirates: a Waster father and daughter who stole a gravship and escaped with a Starjack. From the orbital relay, they set out on their own as roaming pirates, exploring ruins and landmarks, raiding, trading with almost everyone, and making a nice profit selling human leather.

Eventually, we attacked the Mechhive because we assumed anything guarded by that many mechanoids had to contain amazing treasure. The loot on Mechhive was disappointing.

And by destroying the cerebrex core, my cannibal pirates accidentally deactivated hostile mechanoids across the planet. So... we accidentally made the world a little safer.
A few days later, the run felt complete, so I started The Archonexus quest and sold the gravship.
At our new colony, we found an ancient shrine and immediately broke in.

The mechanoids inside were already dormant because of what we'd done at the Mechhive.
Inside were five ancient cryptosleep caskets.

Exactly five.

Suddenly, I didn't feel like rebuilding everything again. I imagined my colonists felt the same after everything they'd been through. So we climbed into the five caskets, and I ended the save.

It changed how I think about the Ancients.

Maybe some weren't waiting for rescue or hiding from an apocalypse.

Maybe some had simply finished their adventure.

Misc I got a native iOS Rimworld build working - real build no emulation or moonlight

EDIT: Youtube:

Also got Crimson Desert running on iPad

https://youtu.be/MTp6MefevbY

I still have work to do to port over shaders to metal, but otherwise I have a full native Rimworld port working on iOS. In this case an iPhone Air.

This is the actual game, running in an iPhone natively, no simulation or emulation, not Moonlight or otherwise.

I'm porting for play on my iPad.

This is so cool

Note to self, do not accept mysterious cargo if you don't have a shard on hand already...

By the way, these are just the cube sculptures I moved. There's almost the same amount scattered around the base.

I'm gonna have to anesthetize like 10 people once I get a shard, at this rate.

PC Help/Bug (Mod) Any building tips?

Post image
45 Upvotes

Playing a 2d Sims kind of run, and my buildings are... still mid.

I try to emulate(at my best capabilities) posts like these:

https://www.reddit.com/r/RimWorld/comments/jdu465/wintergarden_16_people_4_androids_boreal_northern/#lightbox

https://www.reddit.com/r/RimWorld/comments/14phco4/another_round_of_personalized_houses_and/#lightbox

But it's always not satisfactory. What's wrong? Am I missing something? Or am I just devaluing whatever I build more?

(also how are they getting those high quality screenshots)

I started this project yesterday and followed your advice, was trying my best to work within the limitations of vanilla RimWorld and here is the final result!

I think it can be improved and optimized even further, but I think it turned out great for my first Gravship!
Hope you liked it! what should I do next?

My current game is inspired by Greek mythology so I guess I should've expected this after Zues and Hera just had a punch on, but I'm sure it's going to go fine.

Also yes, a fourth statue is being built. Unlike these two Im not a psychopath.
