Medical Dissection

Description
Ever wondered what to do with those piles of dead pirates? Your doctors are still training by installing ped legs on prisoners? Then you need a dissection table in your game!

Features
- Performing dissections allows your doctors to train their medicine skill on humanlike corpses
- A small research unlocks the dissection table and allows you to add bills on them (already unlocked in classic scenarios)
- Colonists assigned to the new "Study Medicine" work type will perform dissection bills at a dissection table to train their skill
- Dissecting a single body takes 1.5 ingame hours and grants 3000xp (adjustable in settings)
- Colonists will not perform dissections if doing so would exceed the daily learn threshold too much
- Dissection destroys random body parts and organs from the corpse
- Colonists may accidentally destroy corpses in the dissection process (lower chance with higher medicine skill)
- A corpse can only be dissected once (A "Allow dissected" and "Allow not dissected" filter can help you to set up your storages and butcher bills efficiently)
- Dissections adds thoughts to the colonist performing them (mood buffs/debuffs depending on their passion for medicine)
- Custom tales - You might discover an artwork illustrating a dissection

Compatibility
There are no known incompatibilities with other mods. Please let me know if you encounter any issues.

Harvest Organs Post Mortem
The mod contains a patch for Harvest Organs Post Mortem (HOPM). If HOPM is installed, you can add dissection bills on autopsy tables. The required research changes to Basic Autopsy. The dissection table is still available but can only be used for dissections, not for organ harvesting.

Alien races
The mod currently only allows dissection on humanlike races. Mods based on "Humanoid Alien Races 2.0" by erdelf are supported. Add an issue if you would like to dissect non-humanlike races. Please include the name of the mod adding that race.

Save game compatibility
The mod can be added to existing saves but you will need to fix your work priorities afterwards (because it adds a new work type). It is not safe to remove the mod from an existing save after doing the first dissection.

Multiplayer support
This mod does not support multiplayer and will likely cause desyncs.

The problem with butchering is fixed now? I want to use this mod for training my skill.

@Holistic Yeah, sounds like the work type needs to be disabled for them. I'll have to look into that when I get the chance.

@Meatball @shilum_nehum that's an odd one. I'll see if I can reproduce the issue.

@shilum i had to re-enable butchering on the butcher table. either they are linked, or it was just a coincidence.

@ meatball: how did you get it fixed i am having them same issue
Meatball Jun 3, 2024 @ 5:30pm 
Nevermind: I think its linked to the "butchering" bill on the butchering table.

My pawns have stopped dissecting. It says "missing 1x humanoid corpses" (or whatever it says when there arent any corpses) even though there are plenty. the bills on the station are good, the pawns are set to dissect, nothing seems to be stopping them but it still says missing corpses.

Is there a way to make the work type disabled for children under a certain age? I had to tell my five-year-old to not dissect bodies; I felt like that would be cheating when doctoring is still disabled for her.

Updated the mod to 1.5
Thanks @Greysuki for the PR, made it a lot easier for me :)

@Dreadmano does it still happen for you? Maybe it changed with 1.5. The mod does no longer seem to trigger the butchered humanlike thought anymore.

@TrenchFoot_Tony Thanks for the report! I added HOPM to the loadAfter list. RimWorld should now warn you when trying to load with Dissection above HOPM in the mod list.

@Monkey Magic it means they will be destroyed and can't be harvested with other mods like Harvest Organs Post Mortem. There is no setting to harvest body parts with dissection.

I updated it to 1.5.

Here is the temporary mod page:

It will remain until the author updates.
Also, I have sent a PR to GitHub.

1.5 please :)
