I have uploaded a new mod - Refactored Work Priorities. I didn't see any mod that does this much to work givers, let me know if I'm late to the party.

[kaptain_kavern]

Awesome, thx for sharing this new one.
It is something I do on my play, but never released as I only have made them prioritize stripping before hauling/burying. But this is more elaborated and I'm sure it will become another one of my inevitable mods ;-)

[chappelkebabistan]

Is your personal-Use mod for A15 or A14?

[Serenity]

Looks interesting. That they try to bury corps before stripping is annoying me very much in my current game

[Dingo]

@chappelkebabistan: My personal-use list in my signature? You can see the little ticks and x marks to show if a mod has been updated.

@Serenity: Stripping behaviour is unchanged. They should strip before burying even in vanilla as long as you designate corpses to be stripped. This mod does not automatically designate that.

I've released a tiny new mod that aims to compliment Refactored Work Priorities (it is completely standalone, though, and compatible with everything you can think of).
Hand Me That Brick allows haulers to deliver resources to unfinished frames or blueprints, speeding up construction projects.

Both constructors and haulers will be able to deliver resources, but only constructors will be able to finish the job.

[EldVarg]

Cool idea - Hand Me That Brick. They will fill the construction plan and not just lay the resource at a tile near it?
Now a way for pawns to give there active work to a (new) better suited (nearer) one .

Would be nice to to split up some of the work priorities into more. Like smoothing floors.

[Dingo]

Smoothing floors is distinctly a construction job, though, at least that's how I see it. I made HMTB because a comment on Refactored Work Priorities requested it and after contemplating it made sense to me. Yes, they will actually fill the construction frame but never do the actual building if they aren't assigned to construction (so you still have great control over that part).

What is delivering resources if it isn't hauling? So it fits both categories neatly, might as well have both do it at different priorities. I can't think of any jobs that fit the same niche, but I haven't looked at the files since making it.

[mabor0shi]

I agree. Smoothing floors is a substitute for building floors. You know, now I'm not even sure EldVarg meant to suggest it shouldn't b construction. "split up some of the work priorities into more" he says. I think he wants something like Fluffy's Work Tab. which is at A14. So he will have to settle for this lesser mod jk it's some great tweakin. I like "Hand Me That Brick", too. I'm a fan of your work sir.

If I am understanding this combo correctly construction is going to be awesome if this is compatible with the quality building mod. Using the new hauler ability and also using the quality builder mod means:

I can set walls, door, floors, table and chairs to be built.

Haulers and all Constructors will begin carrying supplies such as wood.
As the constructors build the walls the haulers will keep carrying more wood to the needed areas but will not construct if it is set to lower priority. Until all supplies arrive then they can help build walls.

But both groups would leave the tables and chairs unbuilt except for those constructors who are skilled enough. Best of all this means that since the supplies have arrived the faster building constructors can keep on working.

Well I guess instead of typing about it I will go try it.

[EldVarg]

Sometimes I want one pawn (with low skills) to smooth floors, and other to do the building. And this is just en example. But floor construction and furniture construction and wall construction would be nice to have in 3 different priority settings.

That is an unexpected synergy, but you're 100% correct.

Hey. I like what you're doing with the Reasonable Lamps mod, but I'm using Vegetable Garden, which does also modify vanilla sun lamps: hence it would overwrite your mod, since I tend to put it fairly low in the load order. Would you kindly consider working with dismar to make a compatibility patch between the two, since the materials and time to make costs for the additional small and mini sun lamps from VG would need bringing in line for users of this mod as well? Thanks!

This is fantastic; I hated waiting for my builders to complete a roof until nothing else was left.  Great mod!
