No need to sleep?

Why don't you need to sleep in this game?

Why don't you have to poop in skyrim?

Realism is great, when it serves a meaningful role in the design of the game. Used incorrectly, it can actually cause a disconnect between the player and their character(s), and the rest of the gameplay.

the function is sorta there but the need for it is not.

There is a mod for skyrim for the need to poo and pee. even eat to.

Then search for a mod that does the same here. Base Skyrim and base Kenshi dont have those things included in them. The games don't need to be 100% realistic. Next you are gonna be asking how can they build all those buildings the way they do? Because that sure as damn isnt realistic.

it seems you are having a hard time expressing yourself?

Sleeping on a bed restores your health faster.
You don't NEED to, but why wouldn't you want to restore your health faster?

Are you asking why they don't get tired?
Then yes i would agree it makes no sense that they can sprint across an entire desert non-stop, no drink or rest.
Mine for copper day and night. everyone closes their shops at night and goes to bed.

A fatigue system was a planned feature that never got implemented.

how does sleeping repair damaged limbs, in a days time no less?

Pretty much this.

If fatigue were in the game it would be a PITA. No thanks.

You can just go to bed at night. Install one of the 'darker nights' mods. Makes wandering around at night seriously hard, you need to find an Inn or set up a camp, and manage your daylight hours wisely.

everyone is infected with nanites.

Hi there @BNSB, i heard you ould like to simulate pooping and sleeping as part of your playthrough, i have found an alternative simulator that precisely gratifies you towards that sort of playthrough

I always end up having to poop when in Skyrim... Playing the game, I mean. I think it's all that "being out in nature" vibe.

Ah - Anarchy Online?


IMO, we've all gotten spoiled a bit from colony "simulators" that drill down to things like relationships, individual personalities, morale, health and sickness, etc.. That's a level of detail that Kenshi doesn't drill-down to. Rimworld, Gnomoria, Dwarf Fortress, etc..

But, none of those are a squad-based quasi-ARPG open-world sandbox building game... Uh, well, not like Kenshi is at least.

I would "like" to have such features, but can understand if the weren't considered to be in the focus for the game. (Sleep, sickness/disease, morale would be nice, but I don't think the mechanics exist in the game to even mod in anything like that.)

I think managing fatigue for 30 people on top of all the other systems would be cumbersome. I already spend enough time watching my people sleep while recovering from injuries... this is one feature I am glad didn't make the cut.

Now morale, on the other hand, would have been very interesting to have. Especially if it were somehow tied into the amenities your base is able to provide. I'd love to have a reason to build communal spaces other than aesthetics and preventing food barrel clumping.
