[RF] Editable Pawn Titles [b18]

Have you ever wondered why the game's work tab forever shows what your colonists *used* to do, without providing you any way to update the info to display what they're *currently* doing? I mean, do you really care that Joe Plumber used to work as a janitor, if he's now serving as your colony's premiere culinary artiste?

Well, fret no more. This mod allows you to edit a colonist's title as well as his or her nickname, any time you feel like it. So if you want to give your colonists titles that reflect their actual jobs instead of their backstories, or want to assign them pseudo-military ranks in your colonial militia, or whatever, you can do so!

Simply click the "rename" button on a pawn's character screen, and instead of getting a window that allows editing only of the nickname, you'll get a window allowing editing of both the nickname and the title.

Compatibility:

This mod ought to be compatible with just about anything. It's safe to add to or remove from a game in progress, though obviously, if you remove it from a game, any pawns to whom you've assigned custom titles will revert back to titles reflecting their backstories.

I'm aware of one conflict, and unfortunately, there's nothing I can do about it. There's an NSFW mod called "RimJobWorld" which completely replaces the code that creates the character display tab. The changes that "Editable Pawn Titles" makes to that code get ignored along with the core code, and as a result, the revised edit window is never referenced.

=====

Credits:

The mod utilizes Pardeike's "Harmony Patch Library." (No additional download is required, as the library is included with the mod.)

And many thanks to BrokenValkyrie, for a push in the right direction where the required transpiler syntax was concerned.

License:

If you're a modpack maker and want to include "Editable Pawn Titles" in your pack, or if you're a modder and want to use it as the basis of a derivative mod, please feel free to do so. I ask only that you let me know about it.
