Simple sidearms

this compatible with dual wielding continued?

I made a mod that works well with this, and Pick up and Haul if anyone is interested: Over Haulers

@Timo4545 your comment is so perfectly RimWorld I couldn't help but laugh

I have a weird issue during my latest game. In the mod menu i have set the number of sidearms to 1 for each type (1 for ranged and 1 for melee) BUT, although i have manually equipped my pawns with a gun and a sword, they keep picking up bombs and grenades. Any idea what can i do to make them stop?

@TheBardofHearts came here for that exact reason thanks so much

@Timo4545, Upon selecting a pawn, there will be a widget at the bottom for simple sidearms. On the left side of this widget is 3 radio buttons (sorry, I'm old school terms). Usually, its preset to the middle option, which tells the pawn to keep whatever what s/he is most skilled with in hand at all times unless specifically told otherwise. If, however, you want them to keep their ranged weapons in hand (thus keeping their melee sidearms for melee only), then click the top "gun" looking button on the left there. The bottom button does the opposite, btw.

Hope that helps!

How do i keep my guys from equipping BEER over their actual weapons? I have them set to ranged weapons and they still keep charging in with a bottle unless i force select their weapon.

somewhat annoyingly, sidearms are being considered in base storage but not equipped (when not equipped), which means the old trick of setting a bill to make a weapon until you have 1 w/ 60%+ durability (with pawns ostensibly grabbing the new weapon when their old one degrades enough) doesn't work. Not a huge issue since there are ways to work around it, just an annoyance.

Can compatibility be made for the Melee Weapons for Every Tech Level mod?

Any chance we can get a compatch for Progression: Education?
