Much of this mod is improving Pick Up And Haul (optional; installed separately).
If you already use PUAH, you want this mod too.

"But my pawns are walking farther!"
Yes. A slightly longer journey now to avoid a much longer journey next time.

1. Pick Up And Haul "efficiently unloading"
   We enhance all inventory hauling by unloading only once at each storage destination, in closest order.
   We cache haulable destinations to improve performance.
   
   
   
2. Opportunistic hauls "on the way to"
   Vanilla has support for opportunities, but with limitations: haulable near your start position, and storage near your job.
   We prefer these, but drop them as requirements to include hauls along the path.
   
   We skip opportunities when bleeding or forming a caravan.
   
   Pick Up And Haul
   Modified to grab only surrounding things whose unload path is also opportunistic.
   
   
   
3. Supplies & ingredients "closer to"
   If hauling resources to storage would bring them closer to their job, do that first (grabbing extra).
   
   Pick Up And Haul
   Modified to grab extra things headed to the same storage (when higher priority) unless bleeding.
   Grab extra supplies & ingredients headed to the same storage (when equal priority).
   
   Your builder will never again cross the map to retrieve a single component.
   
   
   
   
   
4. Storage building filters
   Permit or deny for any storage building through settings, or leave automatically managed with mod updates.
   
   

Common Sense? Yes. (I prevent incompatible settings from being on at the same time.)
LWM's Deep Storage? Yes. But off by default for Opportunities because storing items takes time.
Perfect Pathfinding? Yes, both of our "Pathfind" settings should be compatible.

@Modders, Since RimWorld v1.0, you can set your JobDef to:

Vanilla's opportunistic hauling was well-optimized for performance, which this mod painstakingly preserves in its enhancements.
Likewise we aggressively cache all haul destination lookups for all features, even base Pick Up And Haul.




• Enable Draw colored path detours in settings.
• Pay attention to job descriptions, is it "on the way to" or "closer to"?
(Moody can display them all.)
• Remember you can disable features without restarting.


1. Please save a game when a bug occurs, then reload to verify it reoccurs.
2. Disable the mod from its own options menu - did the bug stop? If so...
3. Send me[discord.gg] your save (Options → Open save data folder). (They zip much smaller.)
I can now fix your bug in days instead of months! 🎉🥳


I intended to fork[gist.github.com] the original While You're Up, until I saw RimWorld 1.0 added it[github.com]. This mod improves vanilla's integration, as a successor to the original 💜.


Use "Share logs" and post a link in the comments! <3

This error isn't caused by While You're Up (at least not in years), it's just a link in the chain. WYU, by increasing pawn activity, makes these already-existing issues more visible.

The warning with a link to my Discord is so I can charitably diagnose the actual cause using an unpublished diagnostic mod I've written. (Or at least gather logs to data mine for the cause.)

Diagnosing it usually requires a save file, and < 100 mods. (Too many and I can't load your save, though possibly with Owlchemist's Mid-saver Saver. Or sending me your entire Mods folder.)

My diagnostics are on pause while waiting for a RimPy update, working on WYU, or enjoying the summer. 😅

You can still join the Discord to send me a save file for later though, and/or to hassle me to get my own diagnostic tool release-ready.


Pawns should unload before reaching a workbench (like in v1.4), not after. Fix is in progress.
I've also just personally finished adding 3-item shelf support to Pick Up And Haul, but it's not yet live. I may provide a link for beta testing.


Thank you for enjoying my work! ❤️
