Sounds good, thank you !

@Solstice: It seems like there's another mod that includes the feature you were asking for:
SkiRich's Nasa Education Mod, iirc it auto manages shifts on universities to only train people if you don't have enough specialists.

Also has other features like "curing" idiots into gurus, but if you don't like that feature you can disable it.

Hi !
Is this working ?

@Solstice: That is a great idea! I remember running into the same issue back in 2018, and had to manually monitor universities to only train until i have no missing specialists, pause and then turn them off, maybe limit shifts/workslots to only allow for as many specialists as you're missing, but that's the best i could think of.

Don't know if it's possible to make a mod like that, but i would highly appreciate this aswell.

Got the same bug with colonists stripped of their surnames. Makes my colony a cozy not-so-official place lol

Is it possible to make a mod which disables training when no specialists are needed at the moment ?

Thes still attend university and im stuck with a lot of unused medics and geologists when they could be useful as scientists or engineers. Or a mod that allows specialization change ?

Hey, So i have been having a problem where my colonists would go in minus Training points and i have been wondering if that is a known bug or something else? Also they don't even graduate some of them are on -10k

That isn't being caused by this mod (it might be a combination of mods, but this mod doesn't edit anything).

colonist.name is only used when user enters a custom name (I believe).

The only other mod I'm using that appears to read/touch unit names is Career AI (mod list in the log I sent you for Info Bar More Info, https://pastebin.com/Ff4HwSGF )

Sorry for the message spam, I should think about all this and put it together as one post next time.

Quick fix for colonists with a hidden surname: https://pastebin.com/bBCZQuxW

Note that this doesn't do any checking for manually renamed colonists (i.e. without a table for the name) or for UI language name order (refer the NameUnit function in Names.lua)

Okay, if I replace unit:GetDisplayName with unit:GetRenameInitText it doesn't hide the surname.

Looking at the colonists with ECM shows the name table still has the first name and surname fields on all colonists, but the ones on which the surname is hidden show TMeta Translated instead of TConcatMeta Translated .

I lack the knowledge to reverse engineer this to work out why it's happening

Me again, found a bug: mousing over the education progress results in the listed colonists having their surnames permanently removed
Looking at the code on Github though, I can't see why that happens - is it a big in the built in function?

AWESOME, thank you for this mod!

Oh, thank you for that info. I never knew that. :)

Like with schools/unis the traits aren't picked till training is complete.

Is it possible to have the Sanitorium info also include which flaw is in the process of being removed?

Really? That's so cool!
Thanks a lot!

Cool ! BTW that's a lot of needed engineers aha
