Research Whatever

Description
When research subject is not selected, pawns just choose the cheapest one on their own. This option is accessible from research bench.

Forgot to pick a new research?
Just want to go with a flow?
Ran out of care for what's going to be researched next?
Yeah, that's a mod for that. No gimmicks, just plain auto-select of a cheapest thing in the list.

You can change notification mode by r-clicking on "research whatever" gizmo of research station.

upd. Works with Anomaly, and does disable studying when it's no longer necessary.

Hello! Is there anyway you would update this for the unstable 1.6? I know a lot of mod authors are waiting to for full release to update

Thanks a lot !

Yes, right-click on gizmo icon, there shoudl be options. Although if you use some research tree related mods, it might not work (because thet create their own popups).

Thanks for this mod !
Is there a way to disable pop ups on ending research ?

I mean, there's a high effort way. Through xml files. You can check how it's done in the mod files.

Not really. The mod exists to be lazy, and caring for what to pick isn't part of it.

is there a way to blacklist research? For example, Colonists' Deco has a research that I find is just annoying and a downside, but I like the rest of it.

First of all, thanks for this mod, its great and i use it every playthrough.
I see @StimTheOne already pointed it out, nociosphere after finishing anomaly research still gets cancelled, even though other obelisks don't. I'd rather not modify my modlist mid playthrough but i guess i have to, nociosphere is quite the threat !
I understand this is a pretty niche problem, just bumping up this mod comment section, because i believe it is a problem that needs fixing !

There is non-ingame way. I've supported a way to mark certain options to be low priority or ignored via xml (example is there too). I didn't do it for research menu because people that usually use tech mods never use default research screen anyway...

Is there some way to say prevent a certain item from automatically getting selected? There're few new mods out there are using research as a story.
