🚀 RICS 1.20 – Major Pricing Overhaul & Fixes Update 🚀

Released: February 20, 2026

🚨 BIG UPDATE: Event Pricing Overhaul is LIVE! 💥

Completely flattened the pricing curve so chat can actually cause real chaos:

New goals achieved:

  • Any regular event → buyable in ~45 minutes of normal watching
  • Doom-tier events (Toxic Fallout, Volcanic Winter, Mass Animal Insanity, big ship parts, etc.) → buyable in ~2 hours of normal watching

What changed:

  • Good & Neutral events now very cheap (most under 700 coins)
  • Regular bad events sit around 650–900 coins
  • True Doom events capped at 1800 coins max (previously 15k+!)
  • Doom events still feel epic/rare, but chat can realistically save up during a stream

How to apply the new prices:

  1. Open Events Editor (gear icon in top bar)
  2. Click new button "Reset New Defaults" (confirms before applying)
  3. Done! Instantly updates with new Doom detection + balanced pricing

(Pro tip: Use debug action "Delete JSON & Rebuild Incidents" first for a completely fresh start)

Modded events remain auto-disabled by default (enable manually if you trust them).

Let me know how the new prices feel in your next stream!

  • Too cheap? Too expensive on specific events? Want tweaks? → instant adjustments possible :tools:

✨ Other Changes in 1.20 ✨

Updated / Improved

  • !help command now links directly to the Commands Wiki
  • !pawn list races no longer shows excluded races
  • Drop pod priority list reworked for smarter landing behavior:
    1. Highest: explicitly named "drop spot" (case-insensitive)
    2. Orbital trade beacon (only if outdoors / no roof)
    3. Ship landing beacon
    4. Caravan hitching / packing spot
  • Fallback: near average free colonist position
  • Underground map → prefers surface when possible
  • Last resort: map center

Fixed

  • Item Store Parser updated and significantly improved
  • Minor Rimazon Invoice fix
  • Resurrection no longer revives pawns that are off-map, buried, or dessicated
  • Fixed apparel (packs especially) not registering as wearable → JSON reset usually fixes

ONLY DO THIS FIX IF wearable packs in apparel are not wearable:

  • Quick streamer fix if Bandwidth/Control/Tox/Disruptor/Firefoam/Hunter packs won't !wear:
    • Dev mode → Debug actions → CAP → Store: Reset Packs Only (wearable fix)
    • Then CAP → "Delete JSON & Rebuild Store" for full fresh start
    • Warning: This resets all custom store settings (prices, enabled flags, limits) to defaults

Added

  • Viewers can now use $ as shorthand for !buy
    • Example: $ cowboy hat Muffalo wool masterwork 2

Translations

  • Dye Command Handler translation file completed
  • Heal Pawn Command Handler translation file completed
  • Dialog_EventEditor.xml — added new translation keys at bottom

Enjoy the (much more affordable) chaos! 🔥 💥
Feedback welcome — especially on event pricing feel.
