hey there ! I really like the idea of Training Rack, but I'm encountering a massive problem with it: one of my pawns (at least he's the one where I noticed this behaviour), Bonzo, is training his artistic skills, although he would have many other things to do. The priorities for him are set to mining=3, foresting=2, artistic=4. As I'm running a deep mining colony and there are still many holes to dig, he's got work to do for the next 2 years. Now, as already mentioned, I'm wondering why he's training... As soon as I suspend the training job, he starts mining.

Hello Brunayla,

I looked a bit deeper into the behavior that I described above, and found out that the colonists need to have "flicking" enabled in order to be able to use the training racks. If I set a skill limitation, it's taken into account correctly.
This also explains, why Bonzo prioritized training before doing his work: I usually set flicking to priority "2"

This even happens on a new started colony, with no other active mod besides "Training Racks".

Does anybody else have this problem ?
Is this behavior intended ?


//Edit:
I've looked up the XML code in the last hour, and I can understand the problems now, and why you chose flicking. best way to solve this seems to split up the one training rack to one for each training-necessary action.

I would have to copy and paste on for each skill.  The ability to do it is in the code with a little decoding. This is what it looks like on the workgiverdef side

I chose flicker because people were complaining about is being set to doctor originally (I think).

I would also have to copy paste and change the code to the training rack to the specials.

Tho if I did it might justify having a better workSkillLearnFactor on the single skill racks.  It is something to think about.
