RimWorld is a game of survival, challenging players to turn a handful of stranded colonists into a thriving community. Life on a remote planet is never easy, and colonies will have to contend with pirate raids, disease, hostile wildlife, and adverse weather.
Whether it's scorching desert summers, or frigid tundra winters, temperature can kill off a colony as quickly as any pirate raid or disease outbreak. Extremely high temperatures can even cause crops, furniture, and walls made of flammable materials to spontaneously combust. Therefore, in order to keep their RimWorld colonists safe and happy, players will have to learn to manage the temperature of their people.
RimWorld: How to Get Kibble
There are four parts of a RimWorld colony that are commonly affected by adverse temperatures: food, crops, animals, and colonists. Temperatures below 10C will help preserve food in RimWorld, and prevent it spoiling completely below 0C. However, high temperatures will cause food to spoil faster, quickly emptying stores and larders. Similarly, crops will grow slower as the temperature drops, and can stop growing completely if they exceed the minimum or maximum temperature listed for that particular crop. Crops that drop below 0C will start to rapidly die, forcing players to harvest them quickly or lose them for good.
Like crops, colonists and animals also have comfortable temperature ranges. For colonists this is between 16-21C, but this range can be extended by wearing warm RimWorld clothing. Colonists will begin to take mood penalties when above or below their comfortable temperature, which turn to health effects when temperatures get extreme. Very low temperatures cause hypothermia and then frostbite, which must be treated, or the
