Crash Landing
Avoiding Fire
I just tried setting up my first colony with this mod, and...well, it looks dire. After the inferno, the bleeding, the grief-motivated murder, and the malpractice, I have two (mostly) functional colonists, three patients, and a couple of edible corpses. All the supplies (aside from some weapons that landed far from most the rest of the ship and were protected by firefoam) were incinerated in the initial blaze, along with nearly all local plant life.
My plan at this point is to use my remaining colonists' mediocre shooting skill and the milspec weaponry to hunt the surviving wildlife to feed us long enough to build a base from the burned trees and farm something or other, hopefully lasting long enough to trade away the spare munitions for critical supplies.
...But I'm wondering if there's a better way to do this. Is there some way to use the brief time before ship parts fall from the sky to prepare a fire-proof area to drag supplies and survivors to? And does anyone have other advice for people using this mod?
