[1.0] Less Arbitrary Surgery (2018-10-30)

[System.Linq]

This mod changes surgery success to be less arbitrary and random. It doesn't change your surgeon's chance of success, but it does change failures in the following ways:
   
-If they don't succeed, they get a second chance to succeed with non-lethal injuries.
-If they fail, they have a chance to only give non-lethal injuries based on their surgery skill (as they identify that the patient is dying and abort the surgery).
-If they fail that, then the death on failed surgery chance is reduced by their chance to successfully complete the surgery.
-If the surgery is not lethal, the difference between catastrophic and minor failure is based on the surgery success chance, instead of being a literal coin flip.
-Only impaired pawns will ever have ridiculous surgery injuries.
-Surgery failures will cause infection. Pawns injured during a successful surgery may get an infection, depending on the doctor's skill.
-Instead of doing 30 damage on a minor failure and 65 on a catastrophic failure, minor failures do 10-20 damage and catastrophic failures do 30-60. This makes it so that some surgeries (like on the head) are not disproportionately lethal even on minor failures.
-Instead of doing between 50-100% of a part's remaining health in damage per surgery injury, failures do between 10-25% of a part's remaining health, so that an injury is far less likely to kill or sever a part on a patient unless its total damage exceeds the part's remaining health.
-You will receive the body part or implant back on a minor failure.

But I like surgically murdering prisoners...

Then euthanize them. This mod is to avoid surgically murdering your colonists.

[Lem Wright]

But is it compatible with EPOE, and if not, when will there be a compatibility patch?

[System.Linq]

EPOE doesn't detour anything to my knowledge, so it's compatible.

Actually I've found that I love this mod. Makes training surgeons much more... efficient.

I've noticed that sometimes it will say there's an infection in the bionic body part I was adding, but when I check, even looking at debug diffs, there's no infection. Is it supposed to be infecting the part, or is this a workaround to just say it failed the first check but got the second one and they're minorly damaged, as opposed to putting up a notice that says it partially failed?

[Thirite]

Oh cool, I was waiting for Better Surgeries, but this sounds like it does a similar fix. Did you modify the damaged body parts on failure to actually reflect where the operation was taking place? ie: no more broken legs/stabbed kidneys while trying to install prosthetic hand

[kunyomi]

Does this only make surgeries less wacky when it fails, as in does it not alter the success rate of the initial failure check?

Sorry i don't use steam mashines !:-)

But very nice mod, but could you add that a failure don't destroy the implant ?

It has a chance to add the infection when you succeed on the surgery with minor injuries, though it may not work with bionic body parts. I haven't tested it. I'm not sure what you mean that there's no infection. Maybe it tries to add it, gives you a message about it, and then fails to add it?

Yes, ridiculous failures will only ever happen when a doctor is impaired and fails critically.

Does this only make surgeries less wacky when it fails, as in does it not alter the success rate of the initial failure check?

Correct, though the next version will add medical tending offset (i.e. hospital beds and vital monitors) to the success rate.

Did you do the wrong attachment maybe ?  Psychology 2017-1-4.rar

Whoops! Let's just say it was stealth advertising.

I think that is too harmless, because of the "remaining health" at this way that part never get  broken. 10-25% of max. HP is better and not lethal except someone keep cutting on a few failures.

-You will receive the body part or implant back on a minor failure.

You should add a damage to the implant, 25-49% of max. HP.  Then you got 3 tries to install it.
