Mechanoid Modifications - Standalone Skill Level and Work modifications

About:

This mod is an a standalone version of Skill Level and Work modifications. It doesn't require Mechanoid Modifications. It adds skill level and work type mechanoid modifications. This mod has reduced research costs and power consumption of modifications.

Features:

• Mechanoids must be set to dormant self-charge and must not be drafted in order for them to be modified.
• 4 level modifications.
• +3 skill level, 5% increased power consumption.
• +5 skill level, 10% increased power consumption.
• +7 skill level, 15% increased power consumption.
• +10 skill level, 20% increased power consumption.

• Level modifications are installed in the mechanoid head and are incompatible with each other. • The additional levels gained from level modifications will never exceed 10, even if installed in a modded multi-headed mech. • Increasing a mech's skill level above 20 may cause issues. • Increasing a mech's skill level basically allows it to do level-restricted tasks but does not necessarily increase other stats, like shooting accuracy. • 12 work type modifications, for each worktype vanilla mechs can do. (Cleaning, Hauling, Construction, etc)

• Other work types are not included because mechs will cause errors during work.
• Work modifications reduce the work speed of the mechanoid they are installed on to the work speed of the mechanoid that originally had that work type.

• 3 vanilla "safe" work type modifications.

• Basic.
• Hunting.
• Art.

• 4 modded work type modifications.

• Alpha Bees - Beekeeping
• Vanilla Genetics Expanded - Genetics
• Vanilla Books Expanded - Writing
• Vanilla Fishing Expanded - Fishing
• Dubs Rimatomics - Nuclear

• Stat upgrades are not displayed in the mech info window. • This mod has an increasing impact on performance depending on the number of mechanoids you have. • This mod is very likely to be incompatible with mods that patch jobs, pawn skills, and work types. There will be no compatibility patches for such issues. • This mod is separate from the main mod because it will have its own compatibility issues and increased performance impact. • Do NOT use this mod together with Mechanoid Modifications. Mechanoid "surgery" systems in these mods will overlap, causing errors. Use Mechanoid Modifications Addon - Skill Level and Work modifications with Mechanoid Modififcations instead. • Replacing Mechanoid Modifications Addon - Skill Level and Work modifications with this mod in an existing save may cause issues. • This mod is under testing. Reliability is not guaranteed.

Q&A:

• Q: Is this mod safe to add mid-save? A: No. Adding this mod to an active savegame will cause issues.
• Q: CE compatible? A: Probably yes.
• Q: Multiplayer compatible? A: No idea. Some modifications are very likely to cause desync.

Mods that add new gestatable mechanoids will require a patch.
