[b42]Efficiency Skill Mod

Description
B42 COMPATIBLE
Still compatible with B41
Enhance your survival experience with Efficiency! Now with sandbox options! This mod introduces a powerful new skill: Efficiency. It's designed to make your character faster and more effective at completing timed actions, adding more depth and realism to your grinding gameplay.



With this mod, your character can improve their work speed based on their Efficiency levels. Characters with higher Efficiency levels can drastically reduce the time it takes to perform essential tasks. You should also try the new trait "Efficient" (which boosts your speed) and (theoretically) avoid the trait "Inefficient" (which slows you down).


Efficient
-6 For some reason, you're faster than the rest. (+3 Efficiency)


Inefficient
+6 You're slow and lazy. (Starts two levels below normal)

Additionally, a new profession, Youth Worker, has been added. This profession gives your character a unique boost to Efficiency and various crafting skills, making them a master of multitasking!


Youth Worker
You've worked your whole life and are especially fast at completing tasks. (+3 Efficiency, +1 Carpentry, +1 Electronics, +1 Mechanics, +1 Tailoring)

Whether you want to speed up mundane tasks or push your character to become the ultimate survivor, this mod lets you build a more efficient, faster, and stronger survivor!


The following table resumes how the multiplier works.

Efficiency
Time Modifier
0
1.8

0.8
5
0.7
6
0.6

0.5

10
0.2

Warning: It's hard to level it up.

Time = Default Time * Time Modifier
Example: Time = 10 sec * 1.8 | So Time = 18 sec
(In seconds for easy understanding, it's just an example)


Zero Efficiency





Level 2 Efficiency (Default Time)





Maxed out Efficiency






Skill Books system
This works the same as vanilla, so you will get used to it quickly


Efficiency skill book



XP Gain system
You gain XP by completing Timed Actions. For now, the amount of XP gained is the same regardless of the total time taken. I designed it this way because, in many cases, the maximum time required doesn’t reflect the complexity of the task but rather the character’s condition. For example, if your character is burnt, it will take much longer to complete an action. It wouldn’t make sense to reward more XP just because the character is in poor condition.


IT'S COMPLETELY SAFE TO ADD THIS MOD TO YOUR EXISTING SAVE
MP COMPATIBLE

Hey guys. I realized this MOD was causing my character to get 1/5th expected experience in every skill I tested. It seemed like it disables the exp multiplier from books. I'm pretty n2g but that's what I think is happening. I disabled a few mods and this one is the only one that gave me the correct exp gains once disabled.

this mod's currently breaking animal handling. at max efficiency, you are unable to grab eggs from hutch and shear sheep, alongside other things I probably have not run into.

Gday mate - mod throws an error when right clicking in vehicle maintenance - specifically trying to replace a lid on a small trailer, right click doesnt bring up the normal context menu, an error is thrown and it highlights EFFICIENCY as the culprit. Just sharing in case it helps anybody

Howdy! It seems there is some kind of incompatibility with 42.12. I'm sure youre already well aware, but I just wanted to let you know, thank you for all of your hard work!
