Below is a collection of my small Quality of Life mods. These mods add functions that make your life easier as you play without changing the core game (much).

What are the requirements for your QoL Mods?

How do I install a QoL Mod?

What order should your mods be loaded in?

Can these mods be used with old saves?

Are these mods compatible with other mods?

I found a bug or would like to request a feature. How can I let you know?

Trading Spot - Control Where Traders Loiter

What this mod is:

Reuse Policy:

Change Log:

v1.1.1

-Fixed crash at load for maps that had a trading spot placed.

v1.1.0

-Updated for Alpah 16

-Removed restriction for placing/moving/deleting your spot while traders are on the map. (You have to live with yourself if you use it to cheese.)

v1.0.6

-Fixed issue where large trader animals (Muffalo and other big 'uns) were still getting hungry. Didn't realize that the hunger system isn't on a percentage scale. Now using Maxhunger level so that all trader animals are magically kept full.

v1.0.5

-Removed debug code that could prevent some maps from loading.

v1.0.4

-implemented fix for trader's animals eating everything.

-Added check for orphaned lordjobs. Unfortunately, the game seems to break when I try to FIX an orphaned lordjob from inside the mod, but the mod can now detect when there is one, throw an error, then treat it as if it doesn't exist which should fix the "Orphaned LordJob ate my trading spot and now I can't place another one" issue.

v1.0.3

-Fixed a bug where if you loaded a map with a trading spot placed that also had an active trade caravan, it would treat the already placed trading spot as if it were being placed for the first time...thus deleting it and giving you the message that you can't place a spot while an active trade caravan is on the map.

v1.0.2

-Can no longer change location of trader spot while an active trade caravan is on the map.

-Can no longer place a new trading spot while an active trade caravan is on the map.

v1.0.1

-Initial release



FAQ:

Are there any known issues?

If you place the spot in a completely inaccessible location, the caravan tends to freak out.

Shutdown All - Quickly Designate Mechanoids for Shutdown

FAQ:

Using the designator more than once on mechanoid will create a duplicate bill for shutdown. This won't cause any problems, as once the Mechanoid is shut down, all further bills are removed.
