Does it work for you?

it works better than hugs lib
so yes

Is it necessary to install the Logpublisher if I already have Hugslib?

Is there any way to get the wardron from More Mechanitor Mechs 2.0 to work with this? I've asked over there but not got answer

@Thekiborg playing a lot with you mod i understand one think. It's function very close to some feature that i understand as life-saver.
I am about "go to" for undrafted pawns. Explaining a bit more. Imagine.
- We have "regrouping" activity in work table
- We assign our operation squad to that activity
- Then we place regroup marker somewhere (marker can be only one and its updating when new position set)
- All pawns assigned to that job - go there RESPECTING zone restrictions (its a deep moment pls think about meaning). Anf hang around it.
- When we update marker previews position discarded
----
And we have semi-drafted movement tools with ZONE RESPECTION!
Right now i am using guard spots for gather pawns in regroups points for assault or exploration.
PS: Sorry for bad English

Yes

Hey does the mod respect priority in the worktab? Would like to have guards only guard when they're done with their more important tasks.

Great mod! I using it for creating gathering spots where pawn go for starting rooms assaults.
@Thekiborg pls add to UI copy paste function for quick copy rows of settings between colonists! Another UI allow drag-copy mechanic. Perhaps you can take this code form somewhere.
Thank for great work!

the error below shows only when RimSort uses alphabetic way of sort, not the default topological. so, it seems there should be a load order rule correlated with some other mod.

814 mods vro just give up atp

can u pls add compatible with the dead man's switch bc robot cant partol\guard spot

assigned guard spots to pawns are reset when guard spots are in a gravship and you launch to another tile.

I'm not even bothering looking at that log. It has 814 mods

No, colony animals dont run Jobgiver_Work. Big and Small Sapient Animals would enable it though

is this applicable to trained colony animals?

i recently tamed some german shepherds, and i was brainstorming if a mod like this would allow me to assign the "family pet" to a child pawn to guard at all times. like how biotech mechanoids set to escort will follow and protect their operator, but instead of mechs, it would be guard dogs (or wolves, or megasloths, etc.)

Hi. Would it be possible to make it so guards can protect non-player colony pawns? The general idea being that you could assign bodyguards to visitors to keep them safe + have them socialize often.

Yes its possible for mechs to guard.
Giliduck are you seeing any errors in your log

Am I missing something or is it just me, but my militors when on guard duty (any of the 3 kinds) do not respond to threats with ranged attacks, only when they themselves are attacked will they respond with melee. I have to draft them in place to make them do ranged attacks.

is it possible for mechanoid to be able to guard as well

what

hello i probably have a conflict but the patrol/guarding tab is it suppose to be a tab like work and schedule?

Reasonable crashout

goat mod thanks now i no longer have to watch my pawns haul ass like an obese herd of snails whenever there's a raid because these glorified triggerpullers can be just stationed there. You're a hero

I love how this mod works fine if you actually know how to read, but the comments are still full of screaming children whining about what are probably mod conflicts

mod saved my children great mod

And on this day the comments have been returned. Will users post their log when they get errors? Find out in the next comment!

sned help this mod made the game crash

@Thekiborg Need to get one of my modpack users to send more. Sorry, gimmie a bit 😅

MOD BROKE FIX!

i neeeeeeed a loooooooooooog

Hi, great mod. This appears to break the workdrones from VFE: Mechanoids.

JobDriver threw exception in toil MakeNewToils's preInitActions[1] for pawn broadcast workdrone 2 driver=JobDriver_GuardPath (toilIndex=0) driver.job=(GuardingP_GuardPath (Job_196195867) Giver = JobGiver_Work [workGiverDef: null])
System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary.

I would love to have a log

Not sure why but mechanoids I have standing guard don't fire on enemies in their range unless I draft them. I am using basic biotechs militors with nothing modifying there behaviour.

I was wondering, is there going to be a way to have like a "squad" that engages once a hostile has entered a specific area. Like a rapid response squad. If not a trigger but something where I can with a click of a button rally a certain unit. I know Defensive Positions does something like this, but not automatically.

uhh i dont change that but i will look into it?

Combat mechs spend 10% energy per day instead 3% (idle) when guarding, since they are not actually fighting can you make them spend less? Thanks!

No, I don't think I will at leat anytime soon
I'd like to do DLC compat first and that's still some ways to go..

will you be adding reaction forces for killing incoming enemies?

Phalanx and Soldat mechs have higher priority things to do than guard your pawns. Like slaughtering animals, cooking, and cleaning. Once all those things are done then they will have the option to guard and show up on the guard tab. If you want them to guard all the time, ask the DMS people to stop making them do other jobs, or you can make a patch so they won't do other jobs yourself.

I have yet to actually get it to work properly once, They just flat out do not have the proper job worktype to do guarding, They just physically can not so if someone told you it works with DMS they are wrong

I've been confirmed this mod works with DMS but it does so sporadically. The mechanoids will stop appearing on the guard tab following some logic on DMS that makes them start doing jobs that they are not assigned to, disappearing from the ones they are assigned to.

i can now make a realistic medeval kingdom now :D

After testing more this infact does not work with Dead mans's switch's mechs none of them have a "Guarding" work activities

Can you add a feature to search for pawns to protect?

No they won't go to them on their own

can you use this to have them man defensive emplacements for their guard job?

Odd because i could only do it with a militor... not a Phalank or a Soldat

It already does

Is there a way to get this to work with Dead mans switch's mechs?
