It says it cannot find a corpse despite several being in my freezer

cool mod but when i cancel a construction,my storages from mods get smaller visually

Would anyone mind answering if the research tech for this Industrial or higher, or is it available for a medieval run with limited tech availability?

The problem with butchering is fixed now? I want to use this mod for training my skill.

@Holistic Yeah, sounds like the work type needs to be disabled for them. I'll have to look into that when I get the chance.

@Meatball @shilum_nehum that's an odd one. I'll see if I can reproduce the issue.

@shilum i had to re-enable butchering on the butcher table. either they are linked, or it was just a coincidence.

@ meatball: how did you get it fixed i am having them same issue

Nevermind: I think its linked to the "butchering" bill on the butchering table.

My pawns have stopped dissecting. It says "missing 1x humanoid corpses" (or whatever it says when there arent any corpses) even though there are plenty. the bills on the station are good, the pawns are set to dissect, nothing seems to be stopping them but it still says missing corpses.

Is there a way to make the work type disabled for children under a certain age? I had to tell my five-year-old to not dissect bodies; I felt like that would be cheating when doctoring is still disabled for her.

Updated the mod to 1.5
Thanks @Greysuki for the PR, made it a lot easier for me :)

@Dreadmano does it still happen for you? Maybe it changed with 1.5. The mod does no longer seem to trigger the butchered humanlike thought anymore.

@TrenchFoot_Tony Thanks for the report! I added HOPM to the loadAfter list. RimWorld should now warn you when trying to load with Dissection above HOPM in the mod list.

@Monkey Magic it means they will be destroyed and can't be harvested with other mods like Harvest Organs Post Mortem. There is no setting to harvest body parts with dissection.

I updated it to 1.5.

Here is the temporary mod page:

It will remain until the author updates.
Also, I have sent a PR to GitHub.

1.5 please :)

Hi Fette, amazing work on this! Any news on the potential to trigger the "butchered humanlike" debuff? I'd really like to use this, but without my colonists all going into a frenzy because a human was butchered since somehow they don't agree with science!

BUG REPORT

Mod order requirement with Harvest Organs Post Mortem

When Medical Dissection was above HOPM in my mod order, I received an error that amounted to the specialFiltersToDisallow field being defined twice within the same XML node, which is not allowed.

This appears to be due to the ButcherAndCremateRecipePatch.xml patch operations for NotDissectedFilter (MD) and the RecipePatch.xml patch operation for PossibleToHarvest & PossibleToHarvestAnimal (HOPM)

This error went away when I put HOPM above MD in the mod order.

- Dissection removes random body parts and organs from the corpse

Does this mean there is a chance to harvest them too, or are they destroyed (become human meat) and if the latter, can this be this be changed so that there is a chance of harvest?

They'll get over it. My colony is a bit tight right now so the morgue is carved out of the freezer airlock. Once it's out of sight it'll be out of mind :)

JK

I've never noticed that but it sounds quite possible. The dissection work reuses some butchering code, so that could trigger the unintended "butchered humanlike" mood. Thanks for the report, I added a issue on Github for me to fix it when I get a chance.

I'm pretty sure this might be causing a mood of butchered humanlike on the other colonists who didn't do the chopping... This counts as butchering?

Ok, thanks)

@hottt3 thanks for the kind words! It currently does not interact with ideology. It only depends on the doctors passion for medicine. But the precept will affect the "witnissed corpse" debuff, that can still occur while dissecting.

This is a good mod! I have a question though, does the mood buff/debuff depend on ideology and/or precept, like 'corpses ugly' or 'corpses don't care'?

Sorry it's so generally unhelpful beyond that.

@ErynnSilver now that's an interesting one. The bulk stone cutting seems not to interfer with other mods on the first glance. I'll have to check that when I get a chance. Thanks for the info :)

ever mind, took a look at the organ harvesting mod and it's incompatable with the bulk stone cutting so I'm guessing that's the one!

Potentially an incompatibility issue, the dissection table cannot find humanlike corpses. I run a lot of mods so... could be a lot of things I guess? LWM's deep storage and Better Pawn control potentially?

@NickNolte I love that we're at a point, where we understand the human body good enough, that we can train people on virtual bodies. Very fascinating.

Regarding the organ harvesting: I wouldn't include it in this mod for two reasons. First, there is already a mod that does it perfectly and it's compatible with this one (you can even make a production chain by using the ingame filters for dissected/harvested hediffs). And second, I don't like it for balancing reasons. Training your doctors is already quite powerful (though it's just more natural and less stressful than operating on prisoners) but having endless organs messes with the whole colony wealth.

@NickNolte because this is a game not real life lmao.

For people asking to include harvesting, we don't put dead people's organs in living people in the real world, so why would we do it here. The second blood stops pumping organ start breaking down and the the likelihood of them functioning properly basically plummets to 0 almost immediately.

People are already getting a huge break on organs lasting outside of the body, in the real world hearts and lungs have to be transplanted within 4 hours of removal, you don't even have to refrigerate them in game.

Love the mod, this is how medical students learn so it makes sense, though now they're moving to VR which is cool.

Updated to Version 2.8
- Fixed Mechanitor not spawning in a new Mechanitor Scenario

Thanks @Gyger for reporting the bug :)

This mod is preventing the Mechanitor from spawning in a new Mechanitor game.

Version 2.7 is now public
- Updated for 1.4
- Colonists will no longer automatically have the dissection work type enabled, if they have no passion and low medicine skill

Glad that your mod is pretty much thriving with the texture an inexperienced guy like me made, taking Prison Architect for a reference.
I am going to test it to see if I can integrate it in my game.

@Ezoteryco organs are quite valuable and the vanilla game introduces negative effects (mood debuffs for organ harvesting) to balance that. I feel like this mod fits more into a vanilla-like playstyle and just introduces an option to train doctors without installing peg legs on all the prisoners. In the end, it's just a matter of preferance and playstyle. But with the HOPM mod already being available, I feel like that one does a much better job at harvesting organs from dead bodies than I could provide.

I actualy use this mod over the one letting you harvest parts, I switch every so often when feeling it. But main this one. sometimes those parts just accumalate and become swampy..
=/

I understand, but why at least not give it a chance? for instance %5 per 5 skill, 10% at 10, 15% at 15 and 25% at 20 to harvest random body parts

@Ezoteryco harvesting it would be quite powerful and generate a lot of currency in an unbalanced way. Medical Dissection is compatible with "Harvest organs post mortem" though. You can first harvest the valuable organs and then give the rest to your doctors to dissect :)

I thought the; "- Dissection removes random body parts and organs from the corpse" WOULD harvest said body parts and organs instead of DELETING it, otherwise this mod is quite amazing

...whoops, my bad on the typo there. Tabbed over to quickly note my only red line and hammered it out too fast. But yes, that's the one.

@Frigglish you mean Harvest Organs Post Mortem? I'll have to double check and adjust my patch in that case.

Both this and HPOM define specialFilterstoDisallow in ButcherCorpseFlesh and CremateCorpse via Add operations, throwing two `XML Verse.ThingFilter defines the same field twice` red errors.

Yup. Either is ok.
Thanks for the update

Updated the mod with your translation. Thanks again for the work, it's much appreciated. Are your Steam and Github names okay for the credits? :)

All tales tested. The translation may be more fluent!

Thanks a lot!
I'll test the tales and reconfirm the PU ASAP.

Delete my comment by mistake, sorry....

That's awesome, thank you! I'll merge the pull request over the weekend when I get the chance.

The TalesDoublePawn.xml texts can show up on art works or crafted masterpieces that have a story written on them. Something like "this piece of art tells the story of colonist <name> ..."
From my own testing it is rare to see a tale about dissection but it sometimes happens.

Thanks! Had some time today and did a quick update :)

Please let me know if encounter any issues (especially with the DLC as I only have the base version of the game).

Changelog
- Added support for Rimworld v1.3

Nice, glad to hear it. Good luck on your exams!

Hey, I plan to update the mod to 1.3 as soon as possible once my exams are over.

Hi, are you planning to update this mod to 1.3, now that the DLC is out? :)
