Workers On-Call

Description
Allows hiring of part-time workers for large construction projects. Workers can be summoned and dismissed at will.

If you are anything like me, you typically build large sections of your prison at a time, and as such end up with idle workers between expansions. This mod aims to change that.

To use:
- Place a "Worker Pager" for 10, 20, 50, or 100 workers, and a power switch
- Wire the power switch to the pager (click on the switch first)
- Turn on the switch to summon the workers. An existing worker will make a phone call from the booth, after which the number of workers will be spawned.
- Turn off the switch to immediately dismiss the workers
- Can be toggled on and off at will with no additional charges (except worker wages when enabled)

Good Mod. Placed 5 Pagers of 100 Each connected 1 Switch to all 5 and Presto!

Two suggestion would be to make the workers spawn at the actual pager and not at the location of the worker flipping the switch. Also would it be possible to make it so the pagers can be rotated?

forgot to mention im using murghs combimod with this in it. So my issue could be from either spot. So i dont know where to check.

Shoot.

Well maybe if i explain what i did might find where i went wrong?
1. Place a guard pager.
2. place a power switch a few blocks away.
3. place a x50 marker in same spot as pager.
4. attached power switch to Guard pager.

Its automaticially turned on when build switch. i cycled it to see and no guards apeared.

I can link a SS if need me to take one. I really want to use this mod.

Problem noticed: When connected to a power switch, the power switch cannot turn off.
