So quite a number of times now 2 of my colonists, (it only seems to happen with these 2) have gone on alcohol binges lasting about 3-5 seconds each. It isn't even enough time for them to grab a beer. They get halfway and decide against it but they still get the Catharsis mood buff

I am confuse but not exactly complaining, free +15 mood :/

There is some weird behavior with binges. I've seen colonists start a binge, drink ONE beer, then straight off to bed, binge ends. Don't party too hard there, guy.

It's possible that the duration of the binge is randomzied, and you may end up actually getting a positive result if they stop before it gets out of hand.

So it's only happening with two colonists, and the rest all binge as normal? That's an odd one.

Does it still happen?  Are you running any mods?

I have EDB's Prepare Carefully sitting there deactivated
Yes, it is still happening from time to time. These two seem to be the only two that go on binges but because of how slowly the colony produces alcohol it very rarely happens

I'll say it's a bug.

They should end the binge if they sleep, no matter what, but if they're awake there should be some reasonable minimum time.

It's weird, binging's min duration is set to 6000 which is 100 real seconds on normal speed. This should be enough for the pawn to drink at least one beer.

//edit: ok, I can't find the reason why this could happen. If anyone gets a pawn with binging mental state lasting less than 100 real seconds on a normal speed please report it, best with a savefile attached
