Description:

This mod turns all generic recruits into unique ones.
Designed to play with Universal Wasteland Expansion.

There is a more radical version of this mod, "UWE – No generic recruits, no spawn", which disables generic recruits from spawning entirely.

Versions of the mod for the game without global extensions are here. They are NOT REQUIRED for this mod to work.

Why is this:

Building your own strong squad of unique and interesting personalities can in itself be an interesting challenge and lead to dramatic adventures. Some characters will join you only if special conditions are met, others need to be persuaded correctly, and others you will find in hard-to-reach locations. The addition of a new member to your team can be considered another victory.
If this is your view of the world of Kenshi, then the many random slackers who live in bars and are always ready to join you may seem strange. All of them are completely standard, guaranteed to love you, and never end, reappearing in the bars every time you import the game, like a product in stores. If your style of play is role-playing and not strategy, then all these characters will only get in the way of enjoying the game.

What it does:

This mod changes all generic recruits to a unique type, and they become the same as unique recruits with random names. Now they can appear in the game only once.
Only those characters that are constantly in bars are affected. Potential recruits roaming outside the cities, such as escaped servants and slaves or lost drones, are not affected by this mod.
You can find out about generic and unique recruits here:

If you want to get as large a squad as possible, then there are many great mods at your service that add a variety of unique recruits to the game, as well as cheat mods that allow you to recruit prisoners. So your adventures will only become more interesting.

Compatibility / required:

Universal Wasteland Expansion – required.

Recruit Level Randomization – compatible.

This mod does not affect unique recruits, all mods that change unique recruits are compatible. All mods that add new characters are also compatible.

This mod only affects generic recruits from the vanilla game and from UWE, it will not affect the spawning of non-unique recruits added by other mods. To work together with such mods, you will need patches.
