What are your plans for this mod with the new 1.6 update approaching (a lot faster than I personally expected). I really like the weapon deterioration and maintenance built in with this mod.

Modsorter says it is incompatible with SO2. Is this really the case or is this just a modsorter issue? Becaue Maintenance doesn't have incompatible mods as listed here.

how does weapon jamming works with other mod that added gun jamming like this mod ? Does the mod that load last take over the other one?

Hi.
Tried this mod in a medieval game (medieval overhaul), can craft repair kit but maintenance job isnt in the job manager so pawn dont use kit. Anyone had this problem?

Mod sorter says this isnt compatible with SOS2

I do not understand the point of this mod. I gave the new job to my crafter because you write that crafting skill is relevant but they only repair the gear they are wearing and not other peoples gear or stored gear.

I'm not sure if it's this mod or your LTS systems mod but I've noticed the recycle job for apparel no longer gives back resources. I'm not getting an error message from it either.

Idea for repairing clothing/armor. clothing/armor can only be repaired using a kit made with same material. a cloth sewing kit can only repair cloth items, plainleather kit for plainleather clothes, and so on. Armor can be armor repair kits made in a similar manner with recon, marine, and cataphract needing a kits made from plasteel and advanced components.

Is it possible to have max durability degradation after each maintenance? I do like to be able to prolong the life of my clothes and armors, but the way it's done completely trivializes it. I think if every maintenance operation decreased maximum top durability by 5~10% it would be both realistic and bring back the need to procure fresh clothing from time to time, just less annoyingly often as without the mod.

While we're talking about suggestions, could we have an option to limit how many times a given item can be repaired, to balance out never having to create new equipment again?

I was thinking something like reducing max HP with each repair, but if that's not possible, just limiting to a configurable count would be ok too

Incompatible with Save Our Ships 2.

If someone strongly believes SOS2 is not worth keeping in my modlist (CE, gunplay, etc incompatibilities) let me know please!

How does this work with persona weapons since there is no research for them?

Its can be worked using mending table from VFE Ancients?

Hello! Are sewing kits meant to repair items like bulletproof vests and flak vests, along with everything in between from the mods or vanilla game, so long as you have a relevant research?

How come they cannot repair it? It should be repairable by pawns as long as you have them weapon toolkits and pawn having the task job assigned. But if they cannot still repair it, then it's a bug and I'll have to look into why. Although I've not had that issue afaik.

I shall add it as optional in the future Subhuman.

Modray's suggestion is solid, I should add an option to allow switching the priority of repairs. Atm, iirc, it's percentage based. But shall look into anyhow to add more options.

one of my colonists has a persona weapon, which they are unable to repair, however it keeps taking damage the more they use it. is tthere any way to make it so it can be repaired, or make the persona weapon unable to degrade like normal weapons?

could you add an option to remove the possibility to repair? it's for a hardcore modpack, currently I have deleted all the files for repair kits manually, and it crashes my game (my fault). but it would be great if you would add such possiblity. thank you for the mod as it is

Any way you could make pawns prioritize repairing more damaged items first? The seemingly-random way they currently do it can get frustrating in situations where you have to make them do it manually (for example, when their armor takes a lot of damage and they'd rather swap it for a fresh set than repair it).

Updated description a lil

Maintenance expands upon the game's degradation and breakdown system by providing ways to let pawns repair worn equipment such as weapons and armor through the introduction of Weapon Toolkits and Sewing Toolkits. Over time, equipment degrade with use, with faster wear on lower-quality items. Poorly maintained weapons have a chance of jamming as well, and breakdowns are now repaired using Repair Toolkits instead of components, which only require 1 component to make 5 repair kits. You can alter and toggle a lot of these behaviors in the mod settings page.

I should alter the summary a bit to better tell that, thanks for pointing it out

Yeah it does deteriorate when used, and bad weapons deteriorate faster. You can alter these settings in mod settings.

Oh so this does make weapons detoriate when fired? It doesn't say so in the description (if I'm not too stupid to read, which may as well be the case).

In that case I'm absolitely happy as is! :D

Thanks for your work for the community!

Adding an option to right click on a weapon / apparel to repair it sounds legit. Would not be automatic job but to repair items that way could definitely be viable. Will look into it.

Hmm could add it as an option futstub. Will look into it for the next update. To allow natural deterioration like so. Not just by firing the weapons.

Why is it so hard ro find a good mod that makes weapons deteriorate while used like armors..? D:

That would make this mod here much better...

@Emilie Sackenball: You probably should download the ability to read.

@LimeTreeSnake the game says maintenance is incompatible with Save our Ship 2

the fact that pawns can't repair items on the ground or on other pawns just renders the mod useless...

why weapons keeping degradation kin d of annyoing can de acriuvwd it

Do you use 1.4 version?

Guns deteoriating from usage crashes the game on windows 10, but does not on the mac version of the game. Instead, on mac it freezes for solid ~2 seconds. Drafting the pawns negates the crash. I'm just wondering if there is any way to fix this?

found an incompatible mod, Save Our Ship 2

is it compale whit fluffys breakdowns

Ah, it's a conflict with Remove Industrial Stuff, I think (I'm using Medieval mods); patching out the Industrial techLevel fixed this for me :)

For some reason none of my toolkits are able to be stored in any storage areas/buildings, it's simply not in the list of things to allow. Is anyone else having this issue since 1.5?

@jet Should be in the mod options by the sound of it.

When dual wielding a weapon, it looks like the offhand weapon is ignored when performing maintenance. Quality of weapon would fall past the designated amount, 80% in my case. I would have to manually repair the weapon.

Great mod in any case. Saves a lot of time and resources!

can you have an option to make it so we can set the maintenance when equipment hits a certain amount of durability? i would only like my colonists to do it when their apparel becomes tattered at 50 percent. I'd set it to manual use only via force if i could

Should be no issue with SOS2 afaik, just check mod settings for maintenance to allow components.

SOS2 still flags itself as incompatible - I'm just wondering if I can ignore this, or one or other mod is out of date :)

The issue should no longer be an issue with 1.5 however.

Regarding SOS2. The issue was that my mod removed the option to use components to repair their ship which causes enemy ships not to repair themselves. Now however, you can use components (toggleable in mod settings).

Do pawns only repair their own gear that is currently equipped? Or is there anyway for 1 pawn to repair all apparel?

So this compatibility with SOS2 thing - is it now just flagged as incompatible, but actually works?

Not sure if this has already been done but according to the SOS2 mod compatiblity records for v1.4 of rimworld there was a compatibility problem with LTS maintenance.

LTS]Maintenance Breaks shield generators making the shield unrepairable by enemy crews. xml patch could be made to replace comps with kits on all enemy ships

It is a toggleable option in mod settings.

It should be fixed now, since components are now a viable resource to use to repair.

According to a friend of mine, this mod has problems with SOS (Save our Ship 2) is this normal?

Thanks for the comment and report, shall look into why it acts up! Probably done a logical check mistake somewhere.

Deleted my comment so that I could indicate the problem in a more intelligent manner.

Repair toolkits do not appear to work for me. I started a new game and spawned in a couple buildings, then dev-commanded them all to break. I assigned all pawns to construction and spawned a stack of components and a stack of repair toolkits. When the components are allowed the pawns will use them to repair the broken down buildings (a smelter and a biofuel refiner) even in spite of me toggling the mod option to say that they were not allowed to use said components. When components are forbidden the pawns won't do anything, and attempting to force them to do the repairs indicates that they are missing repair toolkits (Not components, so I am glad that they seem to know they should be using said kits).

Regardless, the apparel and weapon repair aspects of the mod seem to be working swimmingly, and it is a very cool mod regardless of my difficulties, so thank you very much for creating it!

Initially, I couldn't get used to the different method of repairing than other maintenance mods but it quickly became my favorite mod of in that regard. Thanks for the amazing work, LimeTreeSnake (not LTS)
