A small thing they  annoys  me is cleaning. All colonist have the same priority for cleaning every room. Can we  designate  high priority cleaning areas? It could be the same way you make stockpiles but it just sets the floor to a higher priority of cleaning. So you can have your colonists clean the medbay then the kitchen first instead of them cleaning random dirt in a hallway

I know what you mean. Its not ideal, but the mod "priority clean" does exactly this. It has a high priority task of cleaning which only cleans kitchens, hospitals and cells if you want.

Tbh Id prefer if they just cleaned all the interiors first, like the dinning room, instead of going directly to clean the outside.

The priority should be inside floored, inside rock, inside dirt, outside floored, outside rock, outside dirt.

I've made peace with the need to clean dirt in the first place (I imagine they're in fact picking up trash and not sweeping the lawn)

I never got how pawns in the game could have such insanely bad reactions to such mundane things.
Then I came to the forums.

Not sure if you mean its like that or it should be like that. Anyway, what I actually wanted to say is that I prefer interiors, then go whatever they have to do (cooking, hauling, etc) and THEN if they have time, clean the outside.

What I currently do is with the priority clean mod, have almost everyone in 1 in cleaning+, they will make sure that kitchen and hospitals are clean, so my dinning room ends up shit... What I do is put a sleeping spot in the dinning room for medical so they have it always cleaned too.

The current problem is that you have to choose between either having someone cleaning EVERYTHING (inside and useless outside) or not having anyone cleaning anything.

The only solution I can think off is just add another cleaning job for the outside, separate them, so I can have in 1 cleaning inside and 4 the outside, but that would add just more micromanagement, sadly, thing that this game doesnt need.

Another solution would be to complement what I do already, which would be to modify the mod "priority clean" so it would add all interiors, or at least all designed interiors (dinning room, bedrooms, etc, but NOT rooms)

Sorry I meant it should be like that by default.
