Better Clinic 3.4

Description
DEPRECATED: Will not be updated.

People more knowledgeable than I have done the calculations. Clinics aren't worth building because the cost to run them is more than the benefit they give. Many fixes for this have been recommended, but I've yet to see anyone mention the most obvious: just get rid of medical workers.

This mod makes Gene Clinic and Cyto-Revitalization Center provide nearly all of the benefits that the medical workers would have provided, but without requiring population to work them. For balance, I've halved the amenities and the buildings require consumer goods as maintenance the same as the jobs would have.

This makes the clinic buildings definitely worth building, while still not being too good.

Not sure if it's this mod by itself or some interaction with another mod I'm running, but after installing this mod I found my pops were no longer taking certain jobs. Not sure what the specific issue is, but keep an eye on that if you try this one in your own games.

if you don't have to dedicate pops to it, it is potentially worth it due to the combined slight pop increase + habitability + utilities

also its not decades lol

Can you raise the priority of this mod? When used in conjunction with other mods, the mods do not take effect even if you order them so that this mod gets the highest priority.

Nah. The issue is that it takes decades to get 2 extra pops via the clinic. It takes 7 to 9 years to get 2 pops off the robot assembly while still getting the normal pop growth. And during those decades, the building takes up a build slot. Its just not worth the cost to use clinics...even with this mod. Your better off ignoring it for more alloys and labs.

How are they not worth it? Isn't the pop growth provided worth the resources?
