Hides the Bio of enemies and prisoners until their resistance is low enough.

Description
Every wonder how your colonists know the complete backstory, skills, and passions of the random raiders who attack them? Now they don't!

Decisions about what downed enemies to capture and who to release are much harder now, as you must learn about your prisoners over time.

Hidden Enemy Bio hides parts of the bio tab depending on the resistance of the character. Unwaveringly loyal pawns will never speak a word about themselves to you, but others will slowly reveal their character as their resistance decreases.

All values are configurable in the settings. By default, prisoners will:

  • Reveal skills they are passionate about at resistance 18
  • Reveal their backstory (childhood and adulthood) at resistance 18
  • Reveal traits at resistance 15
  • Reveal all skills at resistance 10

Since resistance decreases is dependent on prisoner mood, you'll want to keep good care of your prisoners if you want them to open up to you.

Only enemies and prisoners have their bio hidden. Friendly characters, slaves, and colonists are untouched.

Traits modified by genes are always shown.

Compatibility
This mod obviously overrides some aspects of the Bio tab, so mods that do the same may be incompatible.

This mod doesn't touch your save, so it should be safe to add or remove at any point. (but make a backup just in case! it's good practice)

For RimHUD users: this mod doesn't touch the RimHUD display, so that obviously gives away some information. Go into the RimHUD settings, find the elements with the skills, and uncheck the boxes for non player controlled characters.

Compatible with 1-2-3 Personalities, though the "extra space" setting in 1-2-3 might need adjusting
Compatible with Vanilla Skills Expanded, expertise revealed when resistance below "vanilla bio" threshold

These mods accomplish a similar goal, and are probably incompatible.
  • Stranger Danger: uses prisoner Guilt/Innocent to hide traits, backstories, skills.
  • Well Met: Hides traits for characters (configurable colonists or prisoners), reveals them over time based on their rarity

Translations (feel free to put in the comments and I'll add it here):
Now included in the mod

Known Issues
Upon opening a Bio with hidden information, some of the skill labels might display weird. If you open and close the bio, select other characters and switch back it will fix itself.

The aim/scope of this mod isn't to completely hide the information, for example if an enemy has the "Sanguine" trait, you will still see the mood increase.

Feedback
This is my first mod. Feedback and suggestions are welcome.

Inspired by the personality revealing in 1-2-3 Personalities.

Hm, okay.
So I can't really use RimHud with this mod then I think. :( I mean. Of course I can but.. I still just have to capture them and instantly see the stats, you know?

@Paprikahörnchen Prisoners are part of the colony, they are not defined as non-player

Hey, if I disable skills showing for non players, my RimHud still shows that info for my prisoners. Do you know about that?
Arthur GC Mar 20 @ 11:37pm 
May I ask you to add an option to also hide the bio if the Pawn is a wild man (faction == null)? Thanks!

"Do you know a mod I can use with this that does?"

You can use RimHUD and disable those bars.
