For anyone who cares, I've released a little side project, the Hospitality Mod. It allows you to recruit people from passing by friendly factions.

[- Convince visitors to join your faction!]

Description
Have you been wondering what the point of visiting factions is? Look no further, this mod is the answer.

- Convince visitors to join your faction!
- Increase faction relationships!
- Treat visitors well by providing them with rooms, guest beds, and joy activities!
- Sell junk by placing it in their rooms!
- Rescued characters can decide to join you!
- Happy guests will help out with your chores!

You can improve relationships by having your colonists entertain your guests. In return, using silver to improve relationships now gets more expensive every time you do it.

In order to recruit a guest, you have to increase their trust in your colonists. Hanging out with them will help, and having someone with a high social skill try and recruit them is required as well. The amount of required friends to recruit is based on how many colonists you already have. Once they have enough friends, they are willing to join your faction right away.

Guests stay in their selected area. Make sure you create an area specifically for guests (this is done with the area tools, just as with animals). This is also possible for where they are allowed to buy. The shopping area has to be inside the guest area, though.

To please a visiting faction provide quality guest beds, joy objects, and a pretty environment. If they liked their stay, they might leave items for you. It also affects your relationship with that faction. If the relationship with a visiting faction is high, they will also bring more silver and more items.

Happy guests might also help you out with work inside of their area.

Installation
is required.
This mod can be added at any time, without creating a new game. Removing it while visitors or guest beds are around can break your save game.

Usage
Select a visitor and open the "Guest" tab. Use the "Make Default" button to apply the guest's settings to all current and future visitors.
You can select any built bed and turn it into a guest bed with the "For guests" button.
You can use any regular area you made with the area tool for where guests may go or what guests may buy.

Compatibility
If you have trouble with visitors not doing anything / going berserk, try changing the mod order. You also might be getting errors. Press Ctrl-F12 and post a link to your log with a description of what is wrong.

Known conflicts:
- Any mod that gives guests animals (or slaves) 
- Colony Manager (you will need to start a new game)
- Many more, changing daily!

How to report bugs
Please first check on GitHub if the problem is already known.
If not, create a new issue there. You must upload your log (use the green button in the console in RimWorld or press Ctrl-F12) and post the link to it.
Also, provide a description of what happened and what you expected instead. Screenshots can help clarify the issue as well.
In 90% of all cases, the problem is a conflicting mod or a corrupted installation on your side.

Troubleshooting
Make sure dev mode is on so you can see errors in the console.

Are you getting a Root level exception in OnGUI? Odds are your operating system is 32bit (not 64) and there's nothing you can do about it.
Does weird stuff happen? Probably you have a mod conflict. Often this is accompanied by one or more errors in the console. The first error is usually the issue, everything after that is collateral.
The first thing you should try is moving hospitality to the end of the load order.

Support development
Do you want to support me developing this mod? Do you want to have a vote in what will be added next?



Wanna do me a huge favour?
I'm working on a new game and in the coming months, we will need beta testers. So if you're up for helping me out and have some fun in the process, check this out. If you don't want to test, that's fine too, your feedback on our video alone is already helpful!

[Released Version 1.03b Preview]

Released Version 1.03b Preview
- Fixed compatibility with outfitter
- Fixed issue with core game spawning mechanoids when creating new map
- Fixed spawning mechanoids from dev menu

I have also run into Famous Shoes' error as well unfortunately, though I think I may have the source.

I believe it is something to do with the new mechanoids that spawn in some of the cryptosleep shrines [..]

Oh, interesting! That could be, yes... thanks for the lead! I'll look into it...

I don't know if it's possible but can you make a lightweight helmet that doesn't hide the hair like all the others do? Its always bugged me that our pawns can have hair but its always hidden by armor.

I was thinking that too. I was hoping for an option, like in many RPG games, that you can put on a helmet (for armor), but it doesn't actually show it. Maybe an idea for a mod?

I think he's using this mod:
https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=10908.0

Ah, thanks! I've fixed Lightbulb's problem now. So the mods will be compatible with the next version (1.03b).

The hairstyles look fantastic!

Would you maybe make some more? Perhaps in a separate mod... (I do like this one, but I think it's more handy)

Here are the errors I saw with an existing world, new colony. If I save that colony, quit, and reload it, RimWorld has a total meltdown. I believe I saw roughly the same from adding More Mechs into an existing colony.

Famous Shoes, your case is a bit harder. Which version of RimWorld do you use? I need to know which mods you are using and in which order they load. If you turn on developer mode, and give me a screenshot of the top logs after starting a map it'll include a list of mods in order of loading.

If you get errors when creating / loading the map and save it, the save is most likely corrupted, so it's not surprising you get errors then.

Reloaded a save before the bug occurred and repeated.

Here are the error messages.

Thanks for the logs, Lightbulb. Could you tell me which version of RimWorld you are using? If it's not 727, I can guarantee you there will be problems.
The error is caused by an object called "Outfitter", probably trying to stick clothes onto the mechanoids, since they're technically "colonists". It's not part of the core game but I also couldn't find a mod that introduces it. So this exercise is left to the reader. Identify the offending mod, disable it, restart, see if there are more bugs.

Please also let me know which mod is causing it, so I can see if there's something I can do.

Hm. Those are both curious problems that I didn't encounter before over here. So I'm very interested in the error messages you're getting.

A new world is not a requirement, unless you have a mod that messes with the Mechanoid faction. Then you shouldn't use that other mod and create a new world.

[Released Version 1.03a Preview]

Released Version 1.03a Preview
- Fix for no cover bug
- Minor description fixes
- Added Korean translation (thanks to Latta)
- Added keyed strings and English translation template

Awesome! Thanks both of you!

Just as a heads up I'm getting some errors running the Alpha 9 version

Ah, I think I know how it's happening. It's on the list now.

Wow, awesome! That mammoth texture is incredible, can't wait to see it in action! But could you add the possibility to repair mechanoids? Two of my crawlers have lost two legs and are now unable to walk, that bothers me a little. But great mod!

I'll have to look into how hard it is to just fix missing / broken body parts, instead of going through the whole prothetics / healing process that normally applies. It's definitely on the list for v1.04, although I can't promise that very soon, since I have all kind of projects still on my todo list, next to RimWorld modding.
For now it's easiest to just build a new crawler and trash the old one.

Just one request, but will you make your assembly's strings to translatable keyed string? Like coming 1.04? I really want to translate this... properly.

Sure, I can look into it for the next version. I didn't think there'd be much demand for it!
