While simple at first glance, each variable, in turn, has its own process of calculation which significantly complicates the outcome. Despite this complexity, the two most significant player controlled factors can be identified as total colony wealth and total colonist count. This is the motivation behind [[wealth management]] strategies. |
Each map and [[caravan]] is calculated mostly independently. Once a caravan leaves the map tile those colonists and items no longer count towards the Raid Points of the map tile. Separate colonies have separate and independently calculated Raid Point totals. The "Adaption Factor" is an exception and is shared across multiple settlements. | Each map and [[caravan]] is calculated mostly independently.

Think of the "Adaption Factor" like the classic workplace sign that says "Days Since Last Injury: 10". The differences from this analogy to the "Adaption Factor" is that the "Adaption Factor" does not reset entirely on injuries. Instead, a number of days are subtracted from the total and how many days are subtracted gets quite complicated. In Rimworld, in this analogy, the sign can read "Days Since Last Injury: Negative 30". Also, the "Days Since Last Injury" don't necessarily go up 1 per day in Rimworld. | Think of the "Adaption Factor" like the classic workplace sign that says "Days Since Last Injury: 10".
