500 named thrumbos and 2600 harvested kidneys later:

2600 kidneys ?? That's rookie number.
Why only harvest kidneys when you can harvest anything until nothing left ?

One lung, one kidney, liver. In that order. Kidney affects blood filtration which means infections are more likely. You could do the heart but there are currently no ways to get any sort of artificial livers while there are artificial hearts. Plus livers and hearts sell for the same price if that's your vibe.

You've got a hard point there. At more than 100 colonists, my game loads in at less than one frame per second. That's why there's a cap on kidney harvesting. Otherwise, I would be a more terrible monster. Thanks for your concern, though.
