mlie we have a job for you please

This mod is dead as balls

This shit is dead in the water, super sad now :c

Does this requier Hugslib or does RomanceDiversified need it? Im trying to play MarsX with prepare carefully but there is no A16 version. So I'm going to use this instead.

are you guys updating it for a18?

Thank you SeveralPuffins, I appreciate your work.

@tieio: I'm flattered! RomanceDiversified is updated- for this mod, go to Prepare Carefully now- it supports the extra trait slot.

@Matheryn: Romance Diversified is now out for A17- I will not be updating this mod as Prepare Carefully now supports the extra trait slot this mod provided.

looking forward for this and its sister mod in a17

I will be the first to ask, will this be updated for 17? Thank you for this mod either way!

Hey, I was under the impression this should be a four trait system, but I only seem to be getting 3 traits on the prepare carefully menu, even though the mods' traits are all there. Any ideas?

@SeveralPuffins: As usual, I appear to have made an error. I thought I had a mod for A15 that put all three together (Humanoid Aliens Framework, Diversified Romance and Prepare Carefully.)
Which is why I asked if it would be upgraded.
However since I cannot find any trace of such a mod/patch on my computer or in the Ludeon forums, certainly I can see myself dreaming of such a mod... which appears to have been the case.

Edit: Oh bother, I really blew it. For some reason I thought this was Prepare Carefully integrating Romance Diversified. Where in fact the opposite is true.

@mrdollar11: There's a second preset, which uses polling data. You can access that in the mod options menu.

@Foof115: I have NO idea why that would happen with Prepare for Romance. Does it happen with the ordinary Prepare Carefully?

@GarGhuul: I'll send the maker a message and see if it's an easy thing to make them compatible, but I can't write anything that REQUIRES someone else's mods.

@PoleparkPlays: Currently you probably can, but I'll not guarantee ongoing compatibility if you do.

can you use this without the other mod to add another trait like trigger happy?

At the risk of making something like a request, will the merge of Prepare For Romance with Humanoid Aliens be updated for A16?

Getting an Error Where It states: Found priority 1 for a pawn incapable of DoBillsSculpt. Did you add/change mods without starting a new game?
However It does it for Every Job, It only does this when I use Prepare for Romance. It occurs once Colonists Emerge from pods. If i Play without using the Prepare carefully mode it works fine.

Is there a way to edit the percentages of when each sexuality appears?

Over all, I love the idea of the mod so i have been using it.
As for my presets I just add the sexuall trait to them and save over the old save (this is not while in colony this is at New Colony setup).

Thanks

Thanks for the response, as for the presets (not saved files of a colony but a prepare carefully startup profile).

I found the issue, Due to steam (downloading forever) issues i had to Unsubcribe from all mods and Manually Install them (but i favorited my loved/used ones), Well i had been trying out a different aim mod which adds a trait and i went back to an older one i used alot in the past, That pawn had that trait from that newer mod.

As for the game Some pawns when Generated randomly show 4 traits, no sexual ones like your mod gives, so i assume they are suppose to be asexual then. So some pawns just randomly dont get sex then.........I hope that joke was funny.

some pawns just spawn (are created) without the 4th trait as a sexual one (or any trait for that matter that is sexual). I have had a few randomly be created with just 3 traits or even 2, with no sexual traits tho these where VERY RARE.

@Omega: I don't think it matters, but I have it after.

@Enlonwhite: Asexual colonists will not have relationships.

Have you got Romance Diversified loaded? If so, all newl created colonists should have a sexuality trait in their last slot. Preexisting ones won't, but use the debug tools "Add trait" function if it bothers you and you want to carry on with an old save.

also some preset colony setup's from EdB prepare I had where still there, i load one just fine no issues and Obviously no sexual traits. But i load the second and i find that one specific pawn says cannot fully load but loads anyways and i can still start. So should i worry or just change her a bit and save over to keep the message from loading?

So is asexual then where they WILL not get into relationships? Or Just very rare/unlikly too? The definition online does not clear up how this will affect the game, so plz dont refer me to the defintion.
Cause some characters are randomly created with no preference listed on traits and I dont know if i like the idea of a asexual default. I understand the concern for abuse with the mods for trait slots. I have been tempeted to just do that since some pawns just start out with 4 non sexual traits. (yes i know i can modify with EdB prepare carefully) I just dont like tweaking most pawns too much if i can avoid it.
So i guess back to my first question, Will an Asexual A:not get into any relationship? Or B: unlikely too/rarely get into a relationship?

Should this load before or after Romance Diversified? Does it matter?

Does this version work with all of the EDP compatibility patches which make edp compatibile with other mods?

@SeveralPuffins Ah, that makes sense. It's cool that you took that into consideration. ^^

@amiachan: I just put it in that way to stop people abusing this for extra trait slots.

Not that I'm against abusing mods for extra trait slots, but I didn't write Prepare Carefully, I only tweaked it so that it'd play nicely with Romance Diversified, and didn't feel that it would be in the spirit of the original!

@SeveralPuffins Thanks, that fixed it! :3 Also, just curious after seeing the previous comment, but why would they come out as asexual? Wouldn't that result in them being way less likely to form a relationship? That would conflict with say, choosing Faithful like I did for a few characters. I don't think it's a bad thing, of course, I'm just curious why not pansexual or something if you don't specify?

@amiachan: Hi! I think you have HugsLib loaded later than Romance Diversified? Put HugsLib first, ideally right after Core!

@cammillotto: If you don't put in sexual preference, colonists should come out asexual. There's no reason I can extend to 5, but the UI is a fuss beyond that. Also, I felt that it was a bit of an abuse of someone else's work to extend it further than required!

So I implemented the mod and this happened: https://gist.github.com/a46ba282ea5325796a85b99c8b73c8a9 The mod itself works fine, but the number of errors I got is a bit disconcerting....

I'm loving this!
some questions:
- what happens in game if you don't put any sexual preference in the Traits?
- is it possible to have 5 traits or more? UI issue?

Thanks!

@SeveralPuffins Yes, that's my plan, I just wanted to be sure I'd be able to play my old games still. Thank you~

@taterloch: Thanks!

@amiachan: No, you'll be fine doing that, but Prepare for Romance only really does anything in the initial stages, the same as Prepare Carefully- are you planning on starting a new colony with this and playing it alongside your old one?

Hey, I've had this mod for a while and have been wanting to implement it, but I'm just curious as to how it will effect my saved games. It won't totally mess them up to disable Prepare Carefully and activate this one, right?

i was complaining about this exact issue the other day, thanks for the fix!

@Draconic Gaming: I'll send a PM offering advice!

@D19: I've now updated the description. I have it afterwards, but I don't think load order matters.

@1stReaper: Just this, it's a full replacement. I'd not feel comfortable doing it if EdB wasn't looking to move away from the mod, but as it stands a full replacement doesn't feel quite as much like poaching!

@No One Here: This is that update!

@ChaoticDNA: HugsLib is definitely still needed

Does that mean HugsLib isn't needed anymore?

It appears that Romance Diversified already released an update for 0.16.

@1stReaper: This is a modified version of Prepare Carefully, you just load Romance Diversified and this.

@Several
this might be a noob question,
but i cant currently test it out myself (at work atm)
but i was wondering, how do i use this mod ?
do i need both PfE and EdB ? (and if so what order should i have them loaded in),
or
should i unsub EdB?

(subbed RD and hugslib, so they should automatically update rimworld to have them once i get onto my pc)

Cheers

do i run romancediversified before this one in load order ?

Hey, Puffins. Drac Here

Have you taken a look at the Humanoid Alien Races PC patch? The link is below. Perhaps you could advise Cpt. Ohu on how to pull of a PC patch?

https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=24469.0

Dropping by to confirm that the fix worked for me, too. And framerate...of course it was a frame stutter. In my (meager) defense, yesterday was a long day for me. lol. Mod's working as intended now though, thanks!

@Qwynn: Thanks, that's very helpful. I'll have to find another way to do the check!

@Qwynn: I really can't replicate this, but I've just taken out the check for Romance Diversified, so now it's just 4 trait Prepare Carefully. It really barely differs. Could one of you let me know if it's still happening, and check against the normal Prepare Carefully? Also, please let me know if you're logging any errors.

BTW, I don't intend to leave it that way, as this is only a balance fix for PC+Romance, but I will find another way to check for Romance being installed!

@Lurius, Ironical: I'm not getting any stutter, but my version only differed in the placement of one line and chaging it hadn't affected anything so I didn't push it to Steam. I have now, so I hope that fixes your issues, but if not I think that the problems are with Romance and Psychology.

@wakko: Thanks- I've now put this in the description.

Is it just me or is it realllyyyyy framey when u use this fix

Final update (not an update): I'm not a modder, no real desire to get into it today. My hunch is an issue with the Psychology mod, this mod, and Romance Diversified, but I don't have the experience to test that. Either way, I liked what little I saw of your fix, for what that's worth.

Update: Mod conflict is contributing to my issues. Moving Rumors and Deception back below this mod noticeably lessened the stutter, but didn't fix it.

Seems to be a replacement. At least, my game didn't like me trying to load it immediately after EdB's mod and RD. Got existing path errors that went away when I pulled EdB's mod, but my first test of this mod just now was kinda bad. The UI is jittery. stuttering when I enter the Prepare Carefully screen, enough that creating a colonist would be impossible without a lot of patience. I do have Psychology and Rumors and Secrets loading in before this pair though, so mod conflict may be the culprit, in my case. I'm going to play around with the order a bit to see if it resolves the...it's almost like a constant lag, but I'm unsure what the bug's called in a single player game.
