So I`m basicly trying to add parts of Minecraft into this game. First off ive done minor tweaks, and added a tools (its in all honesty a glove) that will affect mining and anything related to "Plant cut", like harvesting trees, growing etc. I cant do images better than a donkey, so i wont even try it.

V0.01 contains debuffs in any work related to mining and plant cut, with added tools (craftable in a craftingspot) to actually make pawns capable of doing some of the basic job.

Compability is not tested, nor will it at this stage. Inputs is always liked, this isnt a project that will be done by tomorrow, i wanna play other games aswell

Download V0.01

Dont try this on an existing save without a backup ...

So im trying to make my pawns unable to do miningjobs, i did a simple xml like this:

Code Select Expand

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<WorkTypeDefs>

  <WorkTypeDef>
    <defName>Mining</defName>
    <labelShort>Mine</labelShort>
    <pawnLabel>Miner</pawnLabel>
    <gerundLabel>Mining</gerundLabel>
    <description>Dig out areas which are have designated for mining.</description>
    <verb>Mine</verb>
    <naturalPriority>600</naturalPriority>
<alwaysStartActive>false</alwaysStartActive>
    <requireCapableColonist>true</requireCapableColonist>
    <relevantSkills>
      <li>Mining</li>
    </relevantSkills>
    <workTags>
      <li>ManualSkilled</li>
      <li>Mining</li>
    </workTags>
<visible>false</visible>
  </WorkTypeDef>

</WorkTypeDefs>

This semiworks, as in when i start a colony with 3 pawns, only the first 2 gets unassigned from mining, but the third one is still capable. Its deliberate that i have removed the Mining from the worktab, as i dont want it to be toggable.

So I was tampring around with my own little XML knowledge and xpathing, but I soon realized that this wasnt something i was able to do on my own, at all! So here it goes:

A mod that in the start will suppress all workgivers defs right from the start, and where whenever certain tools, items etc were carried by a pawn, abilities would unlock. Lets say for starters you cant mine untill you chop down wood to make a pickaxe.

There is alot of mods that adds apparels and tools, so it should somehow be a mod that adds this workgiverdefs as xpath to whatever tools in question, making it compatible, and versitile to use with a large set of mods, based on whats "needed" to add.

Constructioncosts etc is a, imo a xpath away, but the basics isnt. Anyone up for the task?

So im trying to patch Weapon Tech A17 into Combat Extended on my own. Apparently it didnt go that well. I tried to patch one gun first, and load it up, but that gave me errors: Exception reading WeaponTech_Guns.xml as XML: System.Xml.XmlException: 'li' is expected  Line 49, position 8.

And this is the stuff i wrote up: https://pastebin.com/DFX7LVcw

What did I mess up here?

This is the help i had on making this: https://github.com/NoImageAvailable/CombatExtended/wiki/Creating-an-xpath-patch

Sp0nges MMR (Modular Modded Rimworld) baseline

Description:
This will end up as modular way of picking and combining a pack of mods using the Steam Workshop. Goal is to have a baseline, then branch off where user can add more modules as they desire.

Additional info
This is ofc based somewhat on my opinion of what I prefer, there is no way to avoid that. The baseline is designed to not add anything like weapons, items and similar to the game, just what I would consider mods that will expand on the current vanillagame. Baseline can be played "as vanilla", just adding a somewhat better ingame controll over your pawns and actions.

Only me. But I suck at graphical stuff, so if someone throws in a picture or 2 at some stage I would be thrilled!
