Description
A collection of tweaks (found in Options -> Mod Settings -> Bricks Don't Vanish) for construction and deconstruction material returns and chances. With default settings, does nothing.

Does not require a new colony to add, tune, or remove.

Preview image by Shotgunfrenzy. Alternative Workshop image by Shinzy.

Available tweaks:

• Notify on failure: toggle notification in upper left corner whenever a colonist fails while constructing a work-heavy building.
• Failure rate multiplier: flat multiplier to default failure rate; doesn't affect stat inspection panel. Set to 0% to disable construction failure.
• Wasteless failure chance: sets the percentage of construction failures that will not result in loss of materials. No real effect if "Failure materials return" setting is 100%.
• Failure materials return: scales amount of materials returned on construction failure. 0% for none, 100% for full return, etc.
• Deconstruction materials return: scales amount of materials returned on deconstruction. 0% for none, 100% for "full" (refer to below setting) return, etc.

Masterpiece you say :thonk:

Awoo

Thank you for this!

Awesome 😊

Can't let that artwork go to waste, hmm? Updated to 1.0, touched up description, made compatible with Fluffy's Mod Manager.

I've updated this to be compatible with RimWorld 1.1, for some reason.

Updated for RimWorld 1.2, my darling forumgoers. Who's a darling forumgoer? You're a darling forumgoer!

(But, yeah, no new stuff, it's just not yellow in your list anymore.)

Updated, now compatible with RimWorld 1.3, DLCs or no. Removed the "-1" option from 1.2 and 1.3 because, apparently, it wasn't a thing since 1.2; also fixed floor deconstruction material returns.

Yadda yadda, 1.5, blah blah. You know the drill.
