Neat mod, tried it a bit.

Really REALLY read the part about mods that add job types, including mods like work tab.

My pawns WILL do work but they are also just as likely to piss around and get absolutely nothing done.

please change/add passion to learning speed

currently the mod doesnt seem to work with any mods that add passions

First off, it's a great mod. I'm unsure however if it's intentional but my pawns are loosing their "working independently" buff after being drafted. Any chance there could be a option added to change that please? It's rather annoying to lose it after building it up only to see it disappear after needing to rally the troops to defend their home.

@Kinnu and @brogre-chan, I also had it but I think I found a possible fix. Turning on dev mod will put a warning in the log telling you why it was turned off, my issue was caused by it trying to check if a pawn who lost their weapon had a valid weapon for hunting.

@Kinnu I'm having the same issue

Been using for almost a year as I hop in and out of my stories. I love it a lot!

Thanks for developing and sharing this with everyone

I love this but its randomly turning it off for my guys, Idk why, they all use to have it and be perfect. No new mods or anytrhing.

@Kal the Meowlord i find it funny how its a FREE mod and yall complain about patches ect ect when ur not giving the modders any sort of money nor support if u dont like it then remove it and be on about ur day instead of pressuring hard working modders to patch things up when they are more then likely busy with stuff so how about u calm down and make a mod yourself then

My pawns sometimes just refuse to research. I think it might be a conflict with one with death, but research just perpetually says it's disabled because others need tending. From what I can tell no one needs tending and there isn't anywhere in the mod options to turn this off, which would be very helpful.

Give up free will forever their voices won't be heard at all

After large scale test (every colonists with free will), I had to remove it after struggling with settings, the colony was not well managed.

"the AI is balanced for [...] vanilla work types" is really true, more settings are needed to fine tune the balance of a custom worktab.

The work preferences related to a worktype should be freely chosen, by example:
_Skill level: some custom worktype lose the related skill need (nurse job)
_Base value: we should be able to choose it for skilless worktype
_Refueling required/Things deteriorating: those preferences made me remove the mod, they are present only on vanilla worktype, and are irrevelant with custom refuel/perishable worktypes

Mod compatible with the More than capable mod?

same free will shutting down issue
happens at sort of end game(for vanilla,not for the mod content, two saves
it reports no other mods involved, its simply fails to calculate job priority, mod bills and vanilla bills
upon quick testing its not population related, spawnd 80+ pawns from all kinds of mods, ran with them have somthing todo other than idle for 20 days in the testing new save, the freewill didnot shut down
weird

this is what i needed for years

Hey uuuuh @freemapa ? are you dead??? This was basically like my top 3 mods... BUUUUT I had to finally remove and say farewell. and delete it.. and try to learn how to play without it (been using this since i got the fricken game -.-). Theres so many incompatibilities with other mods and there's a severe lack of patches anywhere for whatever fucking reason? (jfc pls mod makers make patches for this jfc, all the best modders have all been equally AWOL suspiciously since last april or may for some fucking reason?????) I've had to spend HOURS painstakingly trying to prune my modlist to cater to the tiny little picky intricacies of this mods fragile coding so many times and i'm done lol

I'm getting the issue where Free Will turns off by itself, but I dont have VSE. Nobody has mentioned other mods that does this stupid bug. I'm done with this crap until some heroic individuals can mention what mods breaks this and then i will thusly kiss them on the lips and give them money

After using it for a while, I feel this is the best work assignment mod. If you're worried about pawns not resting when they're sick, you can simply raise the global threshold slightly.

In case anyone else runs into the same issue; change your colony's free will precept to something other than what it's at, this'll update the colonist's free will settings.

I've run into an issue where I can't re-enable free will after disabling it on a colonist. The free will tick on the tab of colonist, when clicked, it turns the work kinds black, and the work tab doesn't start automating them.
Any fixes or something obvious I'm missing?

I like the blue dot blink in table, like watching their thoughts change with the brightness.

Any time I enable free will ingame by editing the ideology (or in general) it errors.

if i recall correctly

@soglasen666 mod supports 1.4, 1.3 and maybe 1.2

nvm i looked in the mod settings

so what about fires and being a patient

Please make a fix for compatibilty to Vanilla Skills Expanded

You can sorta fix that with mod settings, just increase the % that they would do it

O wait adding job types fucks it up fuck, the nuclear energy thing is a problem then

I've been dying for this really. Being to create manual job priorities was a big change for me but it was always tedious setting up all the possible job priorities for each job case that I wish I could just save them. This really changes that for me. Bless you sir bless you.

Very sad, I like VSE

seems to be incompatible with Vanilla Skills Expanded. Free-will automatically disables when VSE is installed, and will continue to auto-disable whenever you turn it back on.

10/10 mod. Any chance that in the future Ideology will not be required?

No 1.4 support?

Keep having the free will of pawns disable on it's own without even a notice about this.

I had fun playing it for a while, but the mode crashes too often, so I have to send it away. Thank you for entertaining me so far.

Can you please attach the needs such as the Gauralan Pruning to the associated task rather than the job as a whole, that way mods that move the tasks into different jobs are also compatible

I love this mod, I just wish it worked with Vanilla Skills Expanded :(

This is honestly one of my favourite mods, thanks for making this. Saves so much time with fiddling on work priorities and dealing with dead colonists.

Hm. Are there any known mods that are hard incompatibilities? Cause I'm getting an error about some skills and being unable to compare values. I thought it was Allow Tool and it's Finishing Skill, but disabling just pushed it to different skills.

https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/7087158fb9ba044bff39ac6b113b0a1a

As a quick sidenote: There's no mention at all about what to set your priorities to. Am I supposed to keep the automatic priorities active? WHat happens if I use the numbers instead? Does that all just get ignored?

Oh, this sounds incredible. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if this mod is compatible with Vanilla Skills Expanded? That adds a third level of passion, a Natural passion (pawn is a natural at the thing and learns it extremely quickly, but if they don't do the thing, they also lose skill in it very quickly), and counter-passion, where the pawn is *able* to do the thing, but basically doesn't improve on it and maybe even hates doing it.

Further, how does this mod act when there is only one ideoligion in the colony that means that you'd have to ocasionally force a pawn to do work they don't want to? (might be necessary for survival of the colony)

Any odds there may be a patch in the future to recognise vanilla skills expanded's passions?

1.4 use?

I absolutely love this mod. Thank you for creating it

I mean... that's something you can already do by setting all 24 hour blocks to Anything.

Will you please add support for schedule so pawns get to decide their own schedule?

Is there any possibility of having pawns consider their health when choosing what work to do? For example, I currently have a pawn with a shattered radius, putting his manipulation at 50%, but he's got a high construction skill, so he's choosing to do construction jobs even though he's botching most of them since he basically only has one arm at the moment

Doctoring needs to be seriously looked at to stop 0 skill children from tending people sick with diseases. The maluses for their lack of skill and others being much more qualified get dwarfed by the "others need treatment" bonus, so you get literal toddlers trying to be doctors.

The malus against doing doctor work when someone else is significantly better than them should be stronger. I have several 10+ skill colonists but Mirva with her 3 Medical keeps trying to help people with the Flu and giving them terrible tend quality.

Is there a version of this mod that is not tied to an ideology precept? I want to introduce this mod to one of my friends, but they are a newer player and do not own ideology.

Does this mod work with Common Sense mod?
