General feedback:

I've played this mod until day 141 while my hospital has grown to 200 employees and 115 patients per day with fully staffed Cardio, Intern and General Surgery Departments.

And I have to admit that I'm completely overwhelmed at this point :D
If I don't take the whole ambulance and emergency dep over manually, the treatment rate drops to 10-20% and both collaps and death numbers skyrocket. The AI just doesn't seem to be able to handle those 10-20 symptoms diagnosis and spend ages running through their treatment routines. Meanwhile patients collapse all around the hospital :)

But of course, you said explicitly that this mod caters to 'bored' players looking for a challenge and that is something this mod really does. I just spent almost one and a half hours for a single day just burning through treatments and symptoms and already started hating my patients. Just like RL :D

I like this mod, it adds a whole bunch of awesome content but sometimes you just wanna lean back and let your hospital run itself for a day. And thats totally impossible with this mod :)

@Holothurin Thanks for your feedback, indeed it can quickly be complicated (especially in cardiology).
Regarding AI, I can try to increase the priority of certain exams but it's true that I play mainly by taking control of all patients so I didn’t pay much attention to IA behavior.

Regarding Insurance Payment, what do you think ?
Is the collapse rate too high ?

Yeah, cardiology is more or less breaking my neck here. :)

The payment is perfect, considering the workload, but increasing the priority of examinations might really make some sense. Especially those pointing the AI in the 'right direction' instead of letting them waste their precious time checking for general symptoms like fever or sweating. That would be really nice and take a lot of workload off the TC for example.

I can't say much about the collapse rate, since i'm also using Butch's Realistic collapses here. I guess it's more or less a consequence of not being able to treat the patients in time that makes them drop like flies. Right now it feels extremely high with 10-15 collapsing patients per dayshift.

I'll see what I can do !
I think I may increase the time before a patient collapses.

I just allowed the AI to do its job for a day, not taking anything manually and here are the results of a day with 116 patients:

Emergency dep: 10 collapse ( 8 cardio related )
ICU: 2 collapse (1 cardio related)
Gen. Surgery: 1 collapse
Intern: 0 collapse
Cardio: 5 collapse ( all cardio related of course )
Neuro: 1 collapse

So... yes. Please. Do something! :D

This here is a prime example:
https://gyazo.com/82b269db3b2cb21a348dfd629698b4e1

The doctor has already gone through three pages of examinations and still doesn't know at all, what's going on. Aortic stenosis and Aortic insufficiency for example have 17 symptoms and most of them are similar to each other. By the time the doctor has found the culprit, the patient has already collapsed three times.

The problem is that the important exams come from the basic game (ECG +++), which is more complicated to increase their priority.
For example : if another mod modifies these exams (ex: Bedside examination), only one modification will be effective...
Holothurin Mar 19, 2020 @ 11:02am 
Would reducing the number of symptoms help then? I know this would compromise the realism, but it would help the AI tremendously.
| Mac Hareng |  [developer] Mar 19, 2020 @ 11:24am 
I am not sure that it changes much .... because the result will be the same (it would be necessary to do the ECG).
I think that increasing the time before collapse is the best solution (I haven't done it yet).
Are you playing with Realistic Collapses and Disease Incidence ?

I'll go from
<RiskOfCollapseStartHours>6</RiskOfCollapseStartHours>
<RiskOfCollapseEndHours>24</RiskOfCollapseEndHours>
to
<RiskOfCollapseStartHours>18</RiskOfCollapseStartHours>
<RiskOfCollapseEndHours>26</RiskOfCollapseEndHours>

Yes, I'm playing with that mod. And YES, increasing the timer would help tremendously! Thanks.

It's done, tell me if it has improved things (however you'll have to wait for a new generation of patients)
Holothurin Mar 20, 2020 @ 4:16am 
Same hospital size:

Emergency dep: 11 collapse ( 10 cardio related )
ICU: 1 collapse
Gen. Surgery: 0 collapse
Intern: 2 collapse
Cardio: 4 collapse ( all cardio related of course )
Neuro: 0 collapse

Numbers seem to be more or less the same. However... this time no dead patients and almost all of the collapse happened during the first half of dayshift and were caused by hemovolagic shock and palpitations ( which are modded by butch ). So I guess, yes, it has improved a lot! Thank you :)

I found a few !LOC! errors on some symptoms, but those are minor issues :)
| Mac Hareng |  [developer] Mar 20, 2020 @ 4:30am 
Glad it got better ! If you notice some !LOC! could you give them to me ? That I can correct them.
Holothurin Mar 20, 2020 @ 5:55am 
SYM_MOREDG_HYPEROSMOLAIRE
SYM_MOREDG_CETONEMIE

I'll keep an eye out for more :)
| Mac Hareng |  [developer] Mar 20, 2020 @ 8:02am 
Fixed !
Holothurin Mar 21, 2020 @ 5:29am 
!LOC Description Errors:

SYM_MOREDG_ADENOME_CORTICOTROPE_DESC
SYM_ACNE_CRP_DESCRIPTION (this seems to be from CRP though)

Add:
SYM_MOREDG_PAN_HYPOPITUITARISME_DESC

Add:
SYM_MOREDG_CORTISOL_EFF_DESCRIPTION
