remove entombed underground mod

[NPC]

Any mod that removes this debuff? or any debuff for not going outside? I dont mean the undergrounder perk as that just ends up giving a debuff to going outside which I also dont want.

Find ways to get the colonists outside more. Outdoor seating for eating, toss in a chess board and the like. It can be roofed as long as it's partly open to the outside to keep it as outdoors rather than a room.

Careful not to mod all challenge out of the game and thus rob yourself of enjoyment, but sure. You can use this mod to disable the "NeedOutdoors" ThoughtDef.

But if its -15 outside and its warm inside I think they would understand outside is not okay. Or if there is giant bugs eating everyone

They do, but they can't pretend that they like it.

Understanding something is necessary and being happy/calm/unbothered about it is two different issues.

Most people tend to be somewhat understanding of cannibalism if it is that or starving to death (for example someone surviving a plane crash in frozen climate and eating a corpse from said crash is the only way to survive), anyone forced to make that choice would still likely be extremely upset about it regardless to how necessary it was (If not outright traumatized).

I don't know of a mod to remove the debuff, but (if its a option) you can do it with the ideology DLC (The tunneler meme springs to mind).

There are a few ways to make the outdoors more tolerable. If you have any mods that add embrasures, they don't seem to separate rooms; a bunker with embrasures facing the outside, even roofed and lighted, counts as outdoors. Also, a large enough open space in the middle of your colony will count - as will any roofed sections of it, or embrasure patios inside it.

As for temps, if it's -15 out, there'll probably be cold-climate animals around, and they make lovely parkas.

You can also just cheese it and use mods like Dubs Skylights, which among other things lets a heavily skylighted room with lots of decorate plants inside (flowers, mainly) count as an indoor garden, which raises the outdoor needs bar. You can even make it a combination garden-rec room, but the decorative plants need to outnumber the squares taken up by recreational items for it to count.

As mentioned above, there are lots of ways to get outside -even hauling something from the edge of the map should be enough to clear the debuff. Like most of the moodlets it prevents the game from being too easy (Rimworld wouldn't be Rimworld without the risk of mental breaks happening at the worst possible time, after all). That said, it's your game, and if you want to live like dirtmoles or dwarves or whatever that's cool, too. You can use the cherrypicker mod above, but if I'd use devtools to give the trait undergrounder to certain/all pawns and suck up the outside penalty.
