Once you've found a starting location, you'll want to create a stockpile zone. Colonists will haul items to a designated stockpile. | Once you've found a starting location, you'll want to create a stockpile zone. Colonists will haul items to a designated stockpile. | ||

− | + | Growing food is the primary and most consistent source of food in RimWorld. You start with 50 [[packaged survival meal]]s, which are enough to tide colonists over for 8 days. It's best to start growing crops before you run out of food. | |
To grow crops, you'll want to go to Architect / Zones and select [[growing zone]]. Drag the growing zone around an area, preferably with rich soil. At first, you will want to grow [[rice plant]]s. Rice grows the fastest and is the most stable food crop. | To grow crops, you'll want to go to Architect / Zones and select [[growing zone]].

You will also have to feed your [[animal]]. Grazers like [[yak]]s and [[horse]]s can eat grass. But a [[husky]] or [[yorkshire terrier]] will eat your meals if they have nothing left. For simplicity's' sake, release your starting animal if they can't graze. Otherwise you can forage from [[berry bush]]es or hunt animals to give food. | You will also have to feed your [[animal]].

− | <small> | + | <small>In specific, each colonist will consume 2 [[simple meal]]s per day. 2 simple meals are worth 20 units of raw food. So, for 3 colonists, 6 meals / 60 raw food is a day's worth of food. Note that cooking "creates" food. When you eat food uncooked, each colonist needs 32 units of raw food per day. [[Pemmican]] is also a "small" ingredient; 32 units of pemmican will feed 1 colonist for 1 day. A colonist can survive just under 3 full days without food, however going without food incurs a massive [[mood]] penalty.</small> |
