Description

Introduction

This mod allows your colonists to automatically repair their worn-out gear. Optional materials usage, no workbenches to build, and no complicated setup or micromanagement—everything is fully automatic and works out of the box! (See the GIF above.)

Features

Convenience – Repairs are automatic, with no need for configuration or manual actions.
Balanced – Repairs consume time (and materials, if you open it in mod setting), ensuring that durability loss still comes with a cost (items still break at 0% durability, just like in vanilla—important for players using yayo combat or similar mods!), while greatly reducing logistics burden.
Flexibility – Adjustable values! There is option to disable weapon repairs for players who want to keep low-durability weapons (e.g. at 49%) to reduce colony wealth, and option to repair free for player who want less logistics burden.
Warning: Changing this setting requires a game restart!
Immersion – Clothing still loses durability and must be manually repaired by colonists, rather than being permanently stuck at 100%.
Performance – No complex logic or heavy searching; performance-friendly.

Compatibility

Tested on my 700-mods saves and no incompatibility found.
Compatible with CE —— Maybe need a restart after installing.

Q&A

My pawns do not repair their gear!

Is "repair" job enabled in work tab?
Are your pawns doing jobs with higher priority (sometimes they will not do repair jobs until they have free time)?
Do you enable material consumption in mod setting and don't have enough material?

Update: Balance and More

Based on feedback from the community and forums, a number of balance tweaks and detailed adjustments have been made.

Balance:
1. Resource Consumption: Added an optional resource cost setting. When enabled, each repair job will consume 1 unit of material, determined by the following rules:
  1. If the item has a material, use its base material.
  2. If no material exists, use the most abundant ingredient from its recipe (small-volume items like gold are divided by 10 in the count).
  3. If there is no material or recipe, the material is based on the tech level:
    - Neolithic – use wood
    - Medieval/Industrial – use steel
    - Spacer/Ultra/Archotech – use plasteel
  4. If none of the above apply, default to steel.
2. Free Repair Threshold: Added a slider (only active when resource cost is enabled). Above this durability value, repairs consume no materials—because sewing a small tear shouldn't cost a full material unit.
3. Customizability: All values are configurable in the mod options.
Details:
1. Logic Update: Colonists will now prioritize repairing apparel before weapons.
2. Visual Effects Update:
  - Repairing metallic/weapon/high-armor items now triggers welding sparks and sound.
  - Other repairs use sewing sounds and dust effects.
3. New Job Type: A dedicated repair job has been added with higher priority than research. You may need to manually enable it in old saves.
Unused idea:
1. Colonists will not walk to chairs/tables before repairing — no more running across the map just to fix a shirt at 99% durability.
2. Repair reduce max durability – Compatibility issue.

I would appreciate a setting where I can set that they only repair after its under a certain %.

非常感谢大佬的mod，能否加一个主动修复的按钮，小人装备耐久都掉没了也不修，我把其他工作都关了只留了修补，殖民地也有材料，非常感谢。

对性能的影响如何？

great mod, could you add a threshold for when pawns actually start repairing their gear? I'm having an issue, especially with apparels which have high daliy degradation, where pawns are constantly going to repair their gear after the smallest degradation. could we get an option to, say, make it so pawns only go to repair their gear after it degrades to below an x percentage?

Ok, after using this mod for some time, must say it's amazing.

I've tried many repair mods before and it always was a complex thing: setup policies, workbench tasks, stockpiles for 'to be repaired' apparel. This mod does not only simplify the production line, but also (suddenly) simplifies apparel policies a lot. As the forced outfits are now always 'as new' and I have not to manage individual policies for each small group of pawns.

1. When durability is over FreeRepairThreshold (75% default), repairing is free.
2. If I have time ... I'll try that.

Great mod, just my 2 cents for ideas that I think could be great?

- Add a threshold so the gear will NOT be repaired unless it is X% or below (Currently if i am not mistaken, if a pawn has as highest priority repairing, he will try to repair his gear even if its 99% and would consume repair material?

-On regards the resources consumed for repair... for balance, It would be great if it was more realistic, as in... If a weapon costs 50 Iron, for every 10% of repair, it should consume 5 Iron.
If I am not mistaken, with the current settings there is no way to make the repair to be balanced around the original cost of crafting said item?

@hellmagus666, thanks a lot for advice, will use them both now, unfortunately "repair items" has no configurations
