There are many, many things to be done on this wiki to make it better. Mark incomplete pages or pages needing work with Category:Unfinished pages or use Template:UC to make our job a bit easier.

If you want to suggest something that needs to be done, sign your post! - Zesty (talk)

List

Needs to be done list: (Feel free to do these if you know how!) (italic = minor, bold = major)

  • Events page: Needs updating/more descriptions.
  • AI storyteller: Needs updating.
  • Wiki Consistency: Some pages are not consistent with the current wiki's style. Find and update those pages.
  • Alpha 8 Updates: Pretty much everything that was added in Alpha 8 needs to be added to the Wiki. (See Below).
  • Alpha 9 Updates: As above but for Alpha 9
  • Mods: Please keep adding mods from the forum to the Alpha 8 mod list
  • Defs: Def elements might be something useful to add in for technical reference/modder wannabes. This stuff is being constantly revised and constructed upon, so it's your choice whether to make it its own page or to integrate it as part of another page (e.g. Colonist). I've only covered a small amount of defs (see Category:Defs for a list), and that was a year ago. Longbyte1 (talk) 05:05, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
  • Main Page: RimWorld Logo needs updating to current. elStrages Appears to be current logo already, the top left logo can't be changed. Fernbhoy (talk)
  • Wiki Icon: The 'O' icon needs updating to the one in the left nav or the one fomr the new logo elStrages
  • Updated Wiki Navigation(Right side complete): I am in the process of adding navigation to the top of each page, It came about from the poor navigation bog at the bottom of the Architect page. elStrages
  • Organs and Implants: Needs a page either in items or in the health tab. Place feedback bellow on ideas DONE, except for some regular body parts, Eye, Arm, Leg. (see Medical Items by Crystalline Cat) ~ Jimyoda (talk) 16:15, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
    • feedback here
      • Please note that pages for human body parts (i.e. Bionic arm) list a subtype of 'body part'. A page for 'Body part' doesn't currently exist. This term in this context infers human body part. However, a page named as 'Body part' should be written to either include or disambiguate from body parts of all pawns, including animals and mechanoids. And one detail to consider is whether to name the page as 'Body part' or 'Body parts'. One other relevant note, there is a page 'Table of human body parts'. ~ Jimyoda (talk) 16:15, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
  • Need a better way to display data on tables without having to update the tables themselves. What's the best way to pull stats and stuff from pages to a table on another page? Zesty (talk)
  • Could uses a page on pawns, if there isn't already one somewhere on the modding pages. Zesty (talk)

Updates from Previous Alphas

This is the list of changes from the Alpha 8, 9 and 10 blog posts, for purposes of checking off items.

Basics and Concepts

Overview

  • [10a] New: outfits manager system added. You can design ‘outfits’ (restrictions on what a colonist is allowed to a wear) and assign them to colonists in a central interface. Colonists will then independently work to find the best apparel possible given their outfit and the current season. They will automatically switch out damaged apparel for better apparel, or poor-quality apparel for high-quality apparel. If the player manually assigns apparel, the colonist will never remove it until the manual assignment is cleared.
  • [10a] New: timetable system added. You can assign each colonist a daily timetable which describes when they should sleep, work, have joy, or decide on their own.
  • [10a] Passion flames are now displayed subtly on the work overview screen.

Trading

  • [8a] Added art trading. Fernbhoy (talk) 22:29, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
  • [8a] Economy and trader stock generation reworked and rebalanced from the ground up.
  • [10a] New: Television (purchasable)
  • [10a] New: Telescope for astronomy (purchasable)

Combat

  • [10a] Reworked how melee verbs are selected so they’ll be selected with a bit more randomness. e.g. Someone with one scyther blade hand won’t use it exclusively; you’ll need to get them two if you want a true killing machine. DONE. ~ Jimyoda (talk) 18:52, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
  • [10a] Beer can now be wielded as a weapon (like wood). DONE. ~ Jimyoda (talk) 04:44, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
  • [10a] Characters will now sometimes resist arrest.

Enemies

  • [9a] Siegers will come with shells to use to bombard you.
  • [9e] Balanced sieges to be slightly weaker.
  • [9a] Cryptosleep caskets are now sealed, come with warnings, and can contain deadly ancient defenders.
  • [9d] Raiders will no longer eat from players’ nutrient paste dispensers.

Thoughts and Mood

  • [9a] Colonists are now bothered by people walking around inside the room while they sleep.
  • [9e] Various tuning adjustments to several thought mood effects.
  • [10a] New: joy need added. Colonists want to have “joy”, which means anything that lets the stop working and enjoy themselves for a while. There are various kinds of joy. Repeated use of the same kind of joy builds up a tolerance, reducing its impact. Colonists will prefer joy sources they are not already tolerant to. Result: it’s beneficial to provide a variety of joy sources.

  • [9e] While firefighting, colonists will now fight any fire they walk into.
