Carry Different Medicine Types
A simple mod that allows your colonists to carry different types of medicines in their inventories.
This feature was requested by users of another mod of mine: Choose Your Medicine.
Since it is not related to a doctors selection of medicine when tending/operating, I decided to make it its own mod.
- Compatibility:
Works for mod added medicines, as long as the corresponding thingDef has a statBase ‘MedicalPotency’.
Not compatible with mods that change the gui element ‘carry’ in the assign tab. - Performance:
- Obviously the more things a colonist should carry, the higher the impact on performance.
I did not measure it, but I assume it is fine for a few colonist and a few different things. - The change to the assign tab gui has a surprisingly positive effect.
A test with about 50 pawns showed the calculation for vanilla took about 0.3ms on average, while with the mod about 0.12ms.
- Obviously the more things a colonist should carry, the higher the impact on performance.
- Limitations:
The mod uses the vanilla system to make colonists put the medicines in their inventories, so be aware of the following:- Colonists will not clear their inventories. (If they have 10 herbals in their inventory and you set it to 5, they will not drop the surplus)
- Colonists will not respect their ‘mass carried limit’ when picking up medicine.
- Adding/Removing from a save:
Should be fine. There will be errors when removing from a save once, but they can be ignored. Make a backup anyway! - Else:
I am not 100% happy that you have to open another gui to set the medicines to carry. If you can think of a better solution, feel free to comment it!Source of the mod is included.
