Fun mod. Few problems.
1) Setting minion lifespan to 10,000 years causes all the minions to spawn at like 2000+ years old and riddled with old age illnesses like heart defects, asthma, etc. The high lifespan also caused error messages with the Prepare Carefully mod and the minions didn't show up in the animals list when Preparing Carefully. I changed their max lifespan to 75 years and it fixed both issues. Minions reproduce fast, they don't need to live forever.
2) Minions haul, construct, grow, and everything else without being trained at all. Not sure it's supposed to work that way.
3) When minions construct anything that has a "quality" tag like beds and tables, the construction will fail when it finishes and all resources used to build it are lost.
