this mod is not working

update ?.

Did this ever get fixed?

Mod dont work?, the analyst only wanders around the map

Thank you

@Laffet

That is a link to VPEPuppeteer and not the Analyst?

Ok nvm, it also has the Analyst file in the DLL.

Is this another abandoned fork?

For Anyone who cannot build .dll or dont know how to build, I made a built DLL.
I dont know how to upload mod and I dont have enough time for study

Put this DLL into {ModFolder}/Assemblies

same thing as the others, this is the wandering mech

dead

any fix?

Tried to do the VS 2022 thing, but getting too many errors... C# is such a pain in the butt

hello peoples. I am not smart, but I have access to visual studio and ill try to fix it and upload a (working) fork.

could someone reupload this with the fix? i dont have visual studio :(

Can confirm, de_BearN fix works. Thanks for sharing!

creator, pls add this fix to the mod

To anyone wanting a fix for this i found out how to fix it
in the Source folder you can open the "Researchmech.csproj" project with Visual Studio 2022, there you'll look for
public class WorkGiver_MechResearcher
within it you'll change
return ThingRequest.ForGroup((ThingRequestGroup)42);
to
return ThingRequest.ForGroup(ThingRequestGroup.ResearchBench);
then you'll press Ctrl+Shift+B to build/compile the .dll
it should appear in the Assemblies folder probably as VPEPuppeteerPatch, at least that's what's in the Assembly Properties of the project for me
that fixes it

fyi not working

Yeah you're right, i'm stupid, I forgot I have passive research mod so I mistook it for working properly, my bad

@Omahawski

Enabling them to do research causes them to just stand at the research bench and never actually contribute to research lol.

@Omahawski

That's weird because the mod you just shared claims it doesn't enable work types for mechs that they can't already do.

UPDATE: You can make fabricors research! there's a mod called Mech Work Toggler https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3168630072 which can enable you to allow or disable certain work types like smoothing walls for construction or etc. in the mod settings select category research (top left button) and allow research, just did a quick colony and fabricor does research! And don't worry, fabricors still prioritize crafting over research

It's listed because since fabricor is a crafter and it can craft drugs, some drugs require intellectual skill to make, like penoxycyline or normal medicine, hence why it's probably given a intellectual skill and by that It says it can research but probably is coded to be disabled, dunno if you can somehow enable it

In 1.4, the Fabricator does not appear to want to do any researching, despite having the ability listed in it's race data:

<mechEnabledWorkTypes>
<li>Crafting</li>
<li>Smithing</li>
<li>Tailoring</li>
<li>Cooking</li>
<li>Research</li>
</mechEnabledWorkTypes>

EDIT

I have tested for 1.5, and while the mech does state it is capable of researching, there are no tasks listed for research, so it does nothing :/

@ jimfoghorn: Really? When did this happen. I just played a few days ago, and that wasn't happening for me.

You don't need this mod anymore, Fabricors can do the research along with crafting things.

@Pasaway - I am using that version, but if this is gonna take over it needs to have both

@Monkey Magic: See the link at the top of the description for the 1.4 version.

is this mod fixed yet?

Please add the 1.4 version as well

is there a similar mod that can add research ability to mechanoids?
this version the analyst just wanders and stands still.

is this mod fixed yet?

Hi, yeap, just tested it, its broken on my end too, was working fine when i originally pushed the mod :( I tried to fix it and decided rewriting the entire mod would be more efficient, i will try to push the new mod in 3-4 days.

Same problem below. it isn't researchin'.

I might be doing something wrong or having a mod conflict, but my analyst aren't doing research.

It can operate scanner, but not research anything. Is this a bug?

Is this can be use to research of anomaly DLC？

would

Gracias

danke

thank you!
