Hunting a bear?

[Hannah Barbara]

Have a mental break! I'm done playing this stupid game. Unredeemable trash.

? self preservation is bad ?
go hunting big carnivores in groups, you wil need the firepower

Playing a video game? Have a mental break!

This game is literally just a set of triggers and poorly coded AI. The fact that you have to give every set of colonists priorities for them not to act like complete idiots is just asinine. You can't fool me with your set of smoke and mirrors. Oh the bear is close? Well time for a mental break!

[Ashardalon]

mental breaks have nothing to do with bears, its all about the mood
was he starving, cold, hurt, insulted, sleeping on the ground...?

The bear rejected him, stole his clothes and is squating in his room.

It's all about the bear.

I usually hunt bears with mortars. Haven't really had a bear problem ever since I started doing this.

The thing of it is that you aim for the deer in order to hit the bear. Any deer that die is a bonus.

Whatever you did leading up tto the mental break is the issue,not the bear.You're obviously doing somehting wrong if they are having a mental break,because they dont just randomly metally break.You KNOWINGLY let the mental state rise up to EXTREME and then told them to hunt a bear.

i edited to point at the fact that you have 500 hours played and should know this HAHAHAHA

I do think the mental break system could be changed...mental breakdowns in real life aren't like someone just flipped the power switch on their brain. They are still conscious and aware of their surroundings. They should still be able to run away from danger instead of standing there like a mentally disabled punching bag

i have seen people mentally collapse and just walk unto a highway
so no people arnt sutch wondrous creations that they wont put themselves in rediculous danger

That's if they're suicidal...which could be a type of mental break on its own. People who go pigging out on food don't wander into highways

Mental breaks do need work. I understand it's value as a mechanic, but people in a survival situation and lucky to be alive arent going to go mentally berserk because their bedroom floor is dirty.....

[Ashardalon]

nope not suicidal
just so broken that they where no longer aware of the world around them
when functioning properly in a stable system humans tend to be kinda rational
but when ♥♥♥♥ hits the fan at full speed and the fan starts flinging it all across the room turning all the walls brown
rationality is not something you can expect from humans

and i have bashed someones skull in once because i couldnt take a shower
so nope people arnt that rational
the dirty room thing makes sense
