Description
Various mods that bring common sense to rimworld; things such as "if you're deathly ill, go rest in bed stupid" (via Bed Rest for Food Poisoning)

Intended to smooth out the frustration of pawns acting stupid; take note that this also includes enemy pawns acting stupid. Intelligent human beings shouldn't wander into a trap hall after seeing their ally get minced right in front of them.
