Restrict Outdoor Activities

Description
Adds an action/command for survivors to restrict their outdoor activities.
Some activities are allowed against restrictions i.e. sleeping, eating when starving, use toilet/washing (when those mods of mine are enabled)
Direct orders should be allowed on outdoor targets even if restricted.

Known Limitations / Future Development
For now I'm pretty happy with the results to release this mod but if it becomes popular and as I get more comfortable with the game's code I'll try to add/improve the following:
- some direct orders against the restrictions won't work properly, especially if resources are needed
- handle multiple houses (now they may travel outside between them even if restricted)
- better handling before any house is built or if it gets destroyed
- send survivors inside immediately when restriction is activated
- improve behavior of modded activities like washing and toilet use (may need changes in those mods)

Ok, after a bit more testing, I think it amounts to "don't work outside" and NOT "don't *be* outside."

If they're working outside when I enable it:

- If there's work to do indoors, they'll stop what they're doing within a short time and go work indoors.
- If there's NOT work to do indoors, they just stand there idling in place outside lol.

I swear, it's a wonder any of these idiots survive! :D

Either way, thank you for this. I love it!

I just downloaded today. When I turned it on, the two people outside stopped working and started idling, still outside. When I turned it off they went back to work.

This looks great, Thanks! Just got done with my first play through and it drove me insane when there was toxic ash and I had to draft everyone and make them stand inside

@shade, check the mod version you have. Sometimes it seems steam won't auto update for some reason...

I'm getting the no combat bug myself, this also stops them hunting I've found.

Cheers for the quick fix. Seems to be working fine now :)

Will check, is there anything in the log?

I'm having an issue that apparently comes from the last update to this mod : my people no longer attack anything. They just stand and get killed without even trying to defend themselves.
They are Drafted, they have weapons, they just do nothing. Stay indoors option is not enabled yet. Going to the main menu and disabling the mod then continuing lets them defend themselves again.
It's a new thing, I had never had that behavior issue with the previous versions of the mod.

I am also running the water, hygiene and irrigation mods and suspected it might be an issue with irrigation (which seemed to mess up priorities in the past), but enabling or disabling those didn't change a thing.
