Is there a way or mod to edit pawn traits mid game. I like to have a colony of psychopaths(like me) but then when i recruit a new member he is not a psychopath and starts losing his shit over all the fucked up stuff my colony does. I'd like a way to turn new members into psychopaths so they fit right in.

Dev mode can give people arbitrary traits, I believe. Also for future games, you can use the scenario editor to make everyone psychopaths. (You'll want to set the context to "everyone"; just colonists I believe only affects your starting group.)

I didn't know about that. Thanks.

A mod that periodically adds the psychopath trait to a colonist who doesn't already have it could be entertaining, and wouldn't be difficult to create. ;)

I was thinking this very same thing yesterday. Basically the ability to have pawns slowly lose their minds/morals the more terrible things happen around them. You'd go from normal to desensitized to psychopath. Maybe as a part of the psychology mod? Maybe I should post the idea over there.

would make a specific scenario work ??? i don't really know what you can do with it but you can for sure make a big colony with a lot of psycopath at the beginning

You can also edit your saves. They are xml files as well :p

Just for sh*ts and grins, I went ahead and made it: We're All Mad, Here!
