Common Sense

Allows your pawns to act smarter. Look up mod settings to know more.

- (optional) pawns are encouraged to fulfill their need of outdoors by seeking recreation outdoors;
- (optional) pawns are encouraged to take account of potential mood in drug policies;
- (optional) pawns are encouraged to give allowed social drugs or joy giving food to sick pawns;
- (optional) change how pawns use drugs when relaxing socially to prevent them from "wasting joy";
- (optional) pawns do not stack food with "bad" ingredients (ex. human meat or insect meat) with normal ones;
- (optional) as an option, odd (ex. insect, i.e. low impact) meat can count as normal one;
- (optional) pawns are encouraged to clean rooms where they're about to operate a building (ex. researching, cooking/crafting, or just going to sleep);
- (optional) pawns may clean rooms between "hauling ingredients to crafting spot" and "crafting";
- (optional, disabled by default) pawns may clean rooms where they're planning to eat (normally or when relaxing socially);
- (optional, disabled by default) pawns may avoid bad weather when idling;
- (optional) pawns may pick up all necessary ingredients to their hauling inventory before delivering them to the crafting place;
- (optional) pawn can be encouraged to prioritize ingredients, materials (including corpses) and meals that are quicker to spoil;
- (optional) pawns are encouraged to clean after tending to a patient;
- (optional) pawns are discouraged to clear an area from snow when it's snowing or raining;
- (optional) when pawns are about to work on a bill, they'll prefer hauling a whole stack of ingredients to a stockpile if possible, instead of cherry picking a fraction that's required for crafting;
- (optional) pawns will stop taking more sweets than they can eat;
- (optional) pawns will put items back to inventory if interrupted;
- (optional) pawns will treat sleeping assignment as a recreation when they can't sleep. Pawns will not prefer recreational activities after topping it off until it's down to at least 80%. Pawns also will try to take spare meals during this time. Dubs hygiene activities also was re-prioritized;
- (optional) you may enable a GUI tweak to display the whole list of ingredients on a recipe screen instead of vague "ingredients";
- (optional, disabled by default) add random ingredients to non-crafted meals. Only neutral ingredients are used;
- (optional, disabled by default) pawn's mood, instead of "freezing" while pawn is asleep, will slowly keep moving in a direction of "potential" mood until it reaches 50%;


- pawns will choose recreational activities that result in hanging out outside, but they can't chose items, so don't make the same recreational items both indoors and outdoors to avoid derpness;

Should be safe to add to and remove from existing save. But it's possible for pawns to get stuck when first installed or uninstalled, so if you see someone standing still - just draft and undraft them.

- Androids and DrugPolicy - CS can trigger it, but doesn't cause it, and can't be fixed (by me, within boundaries of this mod). It was handled months ago, and if you still some how think that CS is related to it, look below;
- "but Visual Exceptions says!" - because it catches and reports even handled errors. CS can trigger errors, but handles them and reverts actions to those that would happen in vanilla, like CS didn't interfere at all. Look for relations in actual Debug log;
- when enabling "add random ingredients to randomly generated meals" with the mod Vanilla Nutrient Paste Expanded, it adds random ingredients to the nutrient paste;
- pawns unequiping clothes as soon as they equip them: seems to be caused by a mod "Stack Gap". When you mark items to be unequiped, the mark to unequip doesn't get removed due to "stack gap" so when pawn equips it since it's still marked to be unequiped pawn removes it right away;
- pawns get stuck standing/drafted: a lot of things can go wrong, but check if you use "smart medicine", something is up with it;
- issue with Cleaning Area mod. Pawns may get stuck standing because they would try to clean filth in the area where cleaning is prohibited. So if you want to use Cleaning Area, disable cleaning options, or make so there is nothing to operate in non-clean area. I assume that the mod Cleaning Area doesn't patch CleanFilth WorkGiver and Worker, so because of that checking for ability to clean via Worker.HasJobOnThing always passes, when it obviously shouldn't;
- pawns equip and immediately drop items. This happens because this item is marked to be unloaded. Try catching your pawn while it has this item in the inventory and uncheck that flag. Issue persists because some other mod blocks my patch that supposed to unflag the item when it's dropped. I don't know what mod does it, but I've assumed it's a mod order issue. I'm not sure even about this because people that report the issue usually never report if it worked for them or not after I answer them (let alone telling me what mod could cause this). Try reshuffling the mods, maybe put the mod on top or at the bottom. It appears to be the same issue as with the mod "stack gap" but I'm not sure.
