People feedback
"This mod has saved me a ton of aggravation when it comes to saving my animals during raids. I have an unrestricted (auto) policy during non-raids. When there's a raid I have another policy called "hide" and they go indoors. If it's an infestation I use another policy where my animals rally in a canyon and eat grass while I kill the bugs" by asquirrel

"My God, I do hate to have to restrict every single animal and pawn individually.. This is the answer to my prayers!" by FreyaMaluk

"Thanks for this, just alt-tabbed out of my game in exasperation to look for a mod that would do this - a heat wave hit for the second time in just a few days and I have to tell 25 guys to go put on dusters instead of standing outside in their jackets till they go insane" by sapling

Ah, Incompatible with Pawnmorpher, destroyed my save the moment I tried to open the assign tab with a sapient former human. Found out in the worst possible way so just giving a heads up. This mod is probably one of the greatest mods out there, so there's a choice you have to make.

My robot profile reset every time. Unfortunately I will have to stop using this mod :(

I've been having my robots profile reset everytime I load a save. Anyone else having this issue?

Just tested it its indeed the case if it bothers you go to
.....steamapps\workshop\content\294100\1541460369\Common\Languages
choose your game language click through to BetterPawnControl.xml
and change <.....Medicine> to <......Meds>.
You need to do it 6 times, 2x for each, Pawns/Prisoners/Slaves.
Target 19 Dec, 2024 @ 12:25pm 
Could it be that the Lines of Meds were renamed from <BPC.SelectedSlaveDefaultMeds> to <BPC.SelectedSlaveDefaultMedicine> because the game has no translations for the medical policy buttons and names them BPC.SelectedSlaveDefaultMeds, but in the anguage files those buttons are called BPC.SelectedSlaveDefaultMedicine and have a translation.

Hello, did the behaviour for apparel policies in multiple bases change? i remember back from 1.4 that i could have policies per base ( including the alarm button outifts).. E.g. per base i have outfits for work, fight, caravan. Loading in 1.5, no apparel assignments exist, and they seem global. Was this changed?

profiles are buggy, every Load the robot-profile is reseted and the areas are deleted.

I have just come from debugging an issue with one of the Pawnmorpher Contributors and apparently this mod is Incompatible, some UI's on opening or closing will trigger an "Root level exception in OnGUI()" due to a los of data as i have been told and in result will Corrupt and break entirely an Saves made while the Game is in that state. See Issue #911 on Panmorphers Github Page for Reference.

The changes made to active schedule policies under "Allowed Area" in the Schedule tab do not save properly to ghouls. It keeps the last area that was set has to manually changed every time.
