What if everyone is in cryosleep?

Just a question. What would happen if all colonists went into cryosleep? It dosen't seem that they can get out without it being opened.

I would assume they'd stay that way until someone came by and woke them up

What would do that? I think raids would at most attack it and blow it up which would kill them.

Well don't forget about cryo pods crashing. There's a chance that the friendly guy inside survives just fine and wanders in likes the place and stays. Aside from that? Can't think of anything else.

Wouldnt it give you the game over screen? Since you have no active colonists?

That's also possible. Btw what's the point of cryosleep anyways? For gameplay not lore

Say you get a bad disease, but have no meds at the time. Sleep and wait. A pawn loses both legs and you dont have bionics and you dont want pegs.
People say that you can make a half bionic luci addict as a base defender and only "awaken" them to deal with guests.....

Wanderer join event also gives you personnel, which becomes your colonist and so you can open them all up or shut him or her in another one.

No it would not, having no "active" colonists as in awake does not mean game over, they are living, unless you have no one left up there in the colonists list you are safe away from this screen. (Its as simple as "if you still have some anyways, anyhow and any state it is okay.")

[GuessMDK]

If all your colonists are in cryosleep, it wont say colony over? Are you sure? You've done this?

Cryosleep characters arent around anymore. Its like a kidnapped pawn.

That makes sense. I plan on making a doom guy hopped up on luci to unleash when I need him. I imagine convincing that sort of monster to go back in the tube would be hard

Cryosleep is really useful for many things. Like if you run out of medicine or food you can freeze a few colonist so you can conserve some for the moment. I also use them for heat waves and cold snaps. or simply if you don't want to or can't deal with someone at the moment.

I might put my dumb ass pyro on ice for a bit.

put alot of people in cryogenics just cause they have ♥♥♥♥♥♥ traits like greedy, pyro, chemical interests, or especially luciferium addictions until i get some. You can also use them for psychic drones

How long does cryosickness last again?

it wont say game over because the pawn will still be apparent on top! should try it out. i reckon a random will join your colony at some point
