Due to compatibility reasons, I recommend using Plug and Play Joiner (Continued) mod, that does same thing and more. Recently updated by Mlie.

Since this mod has been reported working in 1.5 I added it to the No Version Warning-mod
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2599504692

this is going to be amazing with the undead thralls from rimworld of magic

Works fine in 1.5

Is it safe to use this in version 1.5?

Any update?

excited for an update

Would love to know how @Planetace and @Smiley Face Killer are troubleshooting this mod resetting all jobs for a pawn. I currently have 185 mods active, and have tried repeatedly to troubleshoot this, but I can't seem to replicate the issue. I use the "Damage until downed" dev tool, wait for them to be recovered from bed rest, and when they get up they retain all set jobs. If this is indeed an issue (and not simply an incompatibility with an outdated/poorly written mod), it'd be nice to know how to replicate before I commit to a long playthrough.

Ah, okay just had this issue that @Planetace posted
Glad to see I wasn't going crazy

This mod would be useful if it doesnt reset jobs every single time your pawn is downed, because for some reason it thinks they are "new"

What Barotrauma ship?

Your barotrauma ship led me to this mod, thanks! This is such a good quality of life mod to have

Just subscribed to this interesting mod.
I hope you let the RimPy team know what order it should be loaded in.
Thanks for the great job.

I wish there is an option to ignore skills with passion, I would like newcomer immediately sow plants even if they have level 1 planting and if they have passion for it.

THANKS, how do i not installed it years ago, so mane neuro tissue was burned for nothing, big thumbs up

It would be cool if we could set the priority of the jobs.

Could you implement custom job types support?

"eager to show off their lv 4 doctoring skills during the next heart surgery" xD these minor weirdnesses are the reason this game isnt relaxing, half my modlist is quality of life stuff that shouldnt have to be a mod in the first place. this, for example, common sense ofc, puah, rain washes filth and so on. people bleeding to death, im the only doctor, lets get a smokeleaf joint and then slowly walk to bed.
everybody is on the edge due to starving, but hey we caught a deer, lets just eat it raw.
i have an infection 98%, but i reaaaaally have to haul that rock chunk even if it kills me.
oh an lets just sadly walk into a gunfight, cause im oh so depressive i dont even notice gunshots(regular suicide would be more honest and time saving)
and an all time favourite would be: im nearly dead starved, theres food coming right this moment- fuck this, run wild, berserk, sad wander, daze, slaughterer take ur pick but it will make me drop due to starvation- tho im the cook

To answer UntouchedWagons' question on the previous page, no, this does not support Complex Jobs. Split off work types like Surgery and Harvest, subtypes of Doctoring and Growing from the base game, will still default to 3 for new joiners, along with many other job subtypes. You'll still need to manually fix some jobs for every new pawn.

@test yup, that's most likely it. If the colonist "disappears" fully, my mod may lose track that they've been checked already.

@iforgotmysocks might be related to vanilla outposts expanded now that i think about it, it unloads the colonists and maybe it does that when i reform the resting outpost (whatever it is called) into caravans

@test hmm, just tested it and colonists seem to keep their assignments once they're part of the faction, just as intended. Can't reproduce, sadly.

seems to disable jobs of people coming back from caravans

Another excellent idea. Going from "Competency? What's that?" to "All workers in this field must be at the very least vaguely competent."

To be honest I thought it could work that way but I wasn't sure if it would recheck it later, resetting all pawns work types Including the ones you set up to disabled.

I didn't know how to explain it since I don't know how the mod checks for work types and how many times it does that, add that to my basically non existing coding knowledge, resulting in an odd question I didn't know how to phrase sorry about that.

@Wolf Renegade well simply setting all jobs to be disabled when under lv 20 should do what u have in mind, if i understand correctly.

This is an amazing idea, Can I ask; on top of what this mod offers is it possible to have pawns start with no work type checked or does it require a separate mod?

i.e when you get new recruits or guests, there work tab is usually a mess until I fix it.

Wonderful mod, fluffy's work tab which is neccessary, but kind of broken, is an awful experience when you're constantly getting new pawns, like refugees, or outpost recruits.

@Chara sure. ^^

Safe to add mid-save? I've needed this kinda mod for so long :(

@UntouchedWagons it may not, would you be willing to try and let me know? :)

@TheSevenSins ah okay, yeah, if there's mods for that already then i'm gonna steer clear.

Oh sweet I've been looking for something like this for a while. Does it support Complex Jobs?

@Forekast That would be a nice QOL addon.

@forekast Many mods already do exactly that, but I agree that if this mod did as well it allows for one less mod to need to download.

I think it would fit any playtrough that makes you regularly loose and gain pawns. Any heavy prison playtrough, or wave base survival playtrough (or both? :P ) could use it. thank you for considering the idea! ^-^

@Forekast could probably squeeze that in with the next update. ^^

@TheSevenSins may aswell name it "Configure Newcomer's Jobs" then. xD I'll give it some thought. Possible - sure, but probably not something most people would need.

This may or may not fall within the scope of the mod, but it'd be incredible if Night Owls had their sleep schedules automatically set, too. Thanks!

can it do te opposite? what if I want everyone joining to be set to stonecutting and research with priority of 9? Would help micromanagement a lot, especially with prisoner labor

@nikita150u good idea, i'll tinker some when i have some time. Thanks!

Could you also add passion dependency?

@KemonoAmigo sweet, thanks. :)

Update: It does work with Work Tab, even when using manual (numbers 1 - 9) priorities. Awesome!

@KemonoAmigo that's a good question. The long list of options may not fit into the mod options currently. Lemme know and i'll adjust it if needed. :)

Very good. I'll just use it to disable all jobs. Let me handle it, game.

Does it work with Work Tab? Guess I'll find out.
