Lo-Fi Games

Update: I tried deleting my data folder and then revalidating the cache, same result.

On my main save file, my game will crash after less than five minutes of play time with no up-speed/time compression running (twice, it crashed after less than thirty seconds). I tried turning off full-screen, no luck, and then thought it might be a corrupted save and started a new game, same result...

This morning, I had a character with a field medic skill of 97. After healing up some hungry bandits in an attempt to make them stop robbing me of building materials, I noticed his field medic skill was 102. Maybe not a bug, but I had thought that skills didn't level above 100 these days.

Interesting find, although once severing limbs is introduced I doubt even 2000 blood will keep people from bleeding out if no one is there to patch them up when they've lost a limb. It didn't save this bandit, either, as after a ton of hits to that left leg, the blood hp was plummeting rapidly. It ...

While four of my troops were fighting some hungry bandits, I first noticed that they were almost exclusively hitting one bandit in the left leg, which I had seen before, and figured that the RNG had just gotten stuck. Then came the interesting part: I saw that the bandit now somehow had over 700 hit...

Mine happened when I was trying to place a gate. I fired up the game again, placed the gate successfully, but the game immediately crashed before I could select wall segments to go with it. I tried to upload my save, but I got a message saying, "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reache...

If you use the steps Commander Lee outlined here: http://www.lofigames.com/phpBB3/viewtop ... =11&t=4930

...one of the stats you can edit is female. I sex-changed three of my characters, and it doesn't appear to have broken my game.

I had been to Catan, Shark, and Brink before; they were populated. Wandered, saved, exited, came back later, and all three were depopulated.

Sorry I had to upload my save file as a .rar; I couldn't get it under the 2 mb limit as a .zip.

[It's been a while, but after restarting on Rock Bottom, I figured my new character, Sorcha, deserved to have her story told.] The sun stabbed mercilessly at my eyes, even behind closed lids. My head hurt, my mouth tasted like sand that had been filtered through an old sweaty boot, my hands were num...

Loaded this save three times now, and it immediately crashes each time.

As a side question, what does a character advancing in labour actually do for him? Make him do it faster? What about smithing? It goes pretty slow right now for very little profit, I could make more getting my men to mine iron and it's easier to fit in shopkeeper's inventories, so if there's any sk...

It's just pretty far up the research tree. There are currently two types of player-buildable circular buildings: The Outpost S-III and the Outpost S-IV. After the Saloon, you'll need to research the Large House, Advanced Outposts, the Outpost Type III, and the Outpost Type IV (http://kenshi.wikia.co...

I'm having a bit of a problem getting caravans to trade with me. They head into my town, and then walk back and forth over and over again. Their orders section lists them as shopping/staying close on every little lap they make. I have: - imported into a new game - researched public sales - built a s...

I wasn't saying, "Screw beasts, I hate their smelly mangy fur." I actually like their smelly, mangy fur... Moving on from that, I just mean if the goal is to make the night a dangerous place to traverse, there are ways to do that in addition to big mean beefy face-eating hounds of doom. Fo...

The challenges don't necessarily have to be big, beefy, face-mangling creatures to make it a good idea to camp at night. You could have sandstorms in the open desert, or swarms of diseased mosquitoes in the swamp, etc. These might be different encounters that either deal damage over time or have a c...

I think something that could go hand in hand with this sort of idea is terrain deformation/earth moving. You could dig ditches/moats around your base, level up an area where you wanted to build a few buildings, or make crude, temporary walls for a military bivouac.

I loved how that all ended after all that planning and work. I mean, it's rough, but the fact that the tables can turn on you so quickly is what makes this world such fertile ground for these kinds of stories.

yeah but we are "a few weeks" later, and still nothing ! I think I see where we're seeing things differently: we're using different definitions of "a few." To you, a few is three-ish. To me, a few is like when I have a few drinks, which is...a bit more than three. Sometimes a lo...

I only get annoyed if an artist/developer/creator of stuff I want says, "Hey guys, this will be released on Piesday!" and Piesday comes and goes with no stuff I want and no news. Half Life 2, I'm looking at you with the eyebrows of doom. Chris says his process is to keep his nose to the gr...

The +/= key (just to the left of backspace) selects your entire squad. Edit: After playing around a little to make sure I wasn't lying, I confirmed that: c = opens the statistics screen t = opens the research screen space = pauses and unpauses the game w, a, s, d = moves the camera q, e = rotates th...
