I'm looking to make a patch for power tools and for newratkinplus for this mod as they both have weapons that should require training, but somehow are available on even my custom faction with 0 starting techs.
(i'm guessing they didn't correctly set up something that this mod look for to decide which weapons require training or something)

ratkin: "BFR3000" (anti-material rifle)

Power Tools 

A Workshop Item for RimWorld

By: Simmin

This mod adds 4 powered tools for industrial society, the chainsaw, the grinder, the jackhammer and the drill All Tools are made at the machining bench. And require Steel, Industrial Components and Chemfuel to make.

the power tools need machining tech to be crafted so i'd have though it would put it as a required tech to use it, but it seems not.

the BFR on the other hand is not craftable, which may be why it's doing that. would there be a way to assign it to a new technology ? (aka precision rifling as it's where VWE put their anti-material rifle)

i'll try looking into how to do it tomorrow, i'll keep you updated if i figure it on my own
