Counting items when away doesn't count for pawns not on the planet (any kind of orbital location). Works fine for pawns away from colony but still on the planet.

The 'Content' tab I believe is from [sbz] Neat Storage.

counting other items no longer works, could this be fixed please

I have an issue with opening the storage tab automatically. It works for bills, but stockpiles have a completely useless "content" tab that gets opened instead. Is that an issue with this mod or doe that come from another mod that i am not aware of?

Link bills only work up to a certain amount. After you reach that limit, new links won't happen :(

Would be cool if this worked on VEF's process and added the do until to all processes (Although I know it's kinda a separate thing with the same bill drop down)

i realy need hugslib ?

@ArcticHeresy There is a github PR in case you do not watch those.

should be base game

i just installed this for a ongoing playthrough mainly to count items when pawns are in a caravan, but it doesnt work. Is it just me or is it a known problem?

counting items when pawns are away does not work for me zzz

I was seeing the same thing as @TheHplayer saw where copied/linked bills get the default names, not the modified ones. I also remember before 1.6, the new bill got the modified name matching the source. (I didn't play much at 1.5, but 1.4 certainly had that behavior.)

The renaming functionality got removed from here because it was added to vanilla in 1.6, no?

Thank you for the work you do with this mod. Over 300 mods with Combat Extended and zero issues. A must have mod for CE runs with all the different ammo/comat items used. Thank you again for the swift update's.

When copying bills, are edited bill names supposed to revert to the default name? I believe on the 1.5 version bill names where kept both when copying and linking to the same or another work bench.

Checked using only this mod plus harmony, all DLCs enabled. Steps to reproduce:
- Dev quicktest with god mode enabled
- Build any workbench and create a bill.
- Edit the bill name.
- Copy and paste the bill into another bench

The bill is correctly copied and linked but the edited name is not kept, it reverts back to the default one. Is this intended behaviour?

There is a bug that if you open the detailed receipt the whole game bricks and you can't do anything, using this mod with nice bill tab, Rimhub, and better infocard so with many mods can't even say what causes it, sorry I can't be more helpful.

Update 1.6.1.3 is now live on Steam

@arctic thanks for the option, that's great of you! I count inventory, certainly, so it was fine already for me. But options are great! Not 0dte options, however, no not ever.

Is there an Option to Set "any worker" to Something Like Always "best worker" by Default?

As some people have already mentioned, the recent update [1.6.1.2] also counted items in the inventory for compatibility with PickUpAndHaul.
It seems many of you don’t usually want inventory items to be counted, so I’ve added a setting for that — it's off by default.

The GitHub release is live now. Steam update coming soon!
https://github.com/Falconne/ImprovedWorkbenches/releases/tag/1.6.1.3

Since 1.6 too many meals are being counted. Possible the ones equipped, although changing that setting does also change the amount of items displayed by approx. 50. In my 1150 colonists colony vanilla indicates ~100 meals available, with this mod enabled ~800

Is this the mod that allows you to force pawns to craft X equipment of let's say
from excellent to masterwork Assault rifles?

@Hedgehog @Tanker I also had this bug before the fix was released. I tested it yesterday and it seems the bug is still there - I have a multi-meal set up (Fine meals + simple meals), both count the same additional items: all meals except package survival meals. And these bills show different number of prepared meals, which affects when the 'stop until' rule kicks in.

Got version 1.6.1.1 from github and its working fine like before now. It seems with this latest update "Added compatibility for PUAH #114" is now causing "look everywhere" to look in pawn's inventories as well.

spoke too soon, when i unpause the game, the FPS drops again with the bills open...

The option for "Count resources carried by non-humans" was the issue for my HEAVY FPS drop when opening the Fabrication bench with almost 1 of each Advanced Bionic x being set to "do until x" (it was trying to count all the animals and mechs etc i guess?).

I would go from 140 fps to 60 ish just by opening the bench and it showing the list of bills, including with the game paused. Disabling this option, but leaving all the others enabled, fixed the FPS issue.

after testing down to just 1 and 2 mods at a time. Most items are counted but some items like ammo from Combat Extended and Makeshift weapons from that mod are counted even when in inventory.

Some meals are effected like soups and ect and some are not. this seems to only have hapened after the last update. It was flawless before.

Any item that is held by the pawn inventory, not equiped clothing, this includes weapon. So meals, meds, ammo (if using an ammo mod/ LTS, CE, ect.) Meat/Veg/kibble for animal handlers, ect

+1 for the items in inventory being counted. Currently working around it by changing "look everywhere" to "look in stockpile x".

I'm also getting the weird itemcount bug after this latest update. Weapons, meals, clothing, the works.

@hedgenhog No. I"m using a Combat Extended list, very small. I'm about to dig into my mods. I have a feeling its not this mod that causing the issue.

same happens with meals: they to are counted inside the inventory of the pawns

@Tanker
are you using simple sidearms? because that bug got reported there also.
(i have the same issue as of today)

I'm not sure if its my load order, but after the update I have the bug where its counting items on pawns requardless of settings.

Gonna cut my mods one by one to see if its my mods thats causing it. Didnt have this issues until after your update tho.

thx for update!

Question:
the bether workbench ''count additional'' feature used to work with everyboddy gets one.
where do i have to bag for a patch?^^

GitHub Version 1.6.1.2 is now live on Steam.
- Fixed issue for counting products
- Fixed UI bug in bill config #118
- Added compatibility for PUAH #114

If you still get bugs, let me know here or on GitHub

what is the cause is not because of the search bar? because in 1.6 the search bar counts the items in the pawn and pack animal too

Gualdhar that's a hard problem to solve because simple sidearms don't actually equip the side arms, they just have them in their inventory and switch automatically to equip them depending on context. This mod can't actually solve that unless Rimworld adds a side arm tag for inventory.
What I would do is just have it make X for each pawn and leave it at that. So when a new pawn comes in it will make it for it.
And when your shotgun breaks it will make a new one.

I think the checks for "do until X" aren't interacting well with Simple Sidearms. I've got chain shotguns as sidearms on my pawns, but the bill is counting them as though they're not equipped.

BUG: Can no longer close build menu detail screen after the update last night. Tried un-subbing and re-subbing to be sure I had the latest version.

This is still - STILL - a top-level required mod.
Why the features and functionality of this mod haven't been fully integrated into the base game shall forever baffle me. These aren't workbench mods; they're fixes! Good job, everyone.

Update Info

The fix for all of these bugs is already available on GitHub:

If you want a quick fix, grab the GitHub version.
If you prefer Steam, the update should go live in a few days.
Thanks for the feedback — hopefully your issues are fixed!

First off, sorry for the inconvenience caused by the bugs in version 1.6 .
I know how frustrating it is when things that used to work suddenly break.

Current bugs mentioned in the comments:

- Counting issue:
I rewrote the "count" function. Previously, there were separate functions for default and additional items. I tested the cases from the comments and found no errors — but some edge cases may still exist.
Let me know if you find any!

- UI Bug:
"Restrict Workbench" button missing or overlapping with "Selected Worker" UI is now fixed .

- Auto-switching selected worker:
Caused by the UI bug. The default for "Restrict Workbench" is "false", but when the button was hidden, it could be set to "true" without you seeing it.
This made it seem like a bug, but it was unintended behavior.
(Can’t reproduce in 1.6.1.2.)

THank god for copy all

@Mildnight, I just have noticed the same issue. And yes, the same - simple meals vs fine meals

I'm having an issue on the current version where "count additional items" doesn't seem to be working. I have fine+ meals counted in my simple meal (so the simple meals are only getting made if there's no fine meal or above), but it's only counting the simple meals. Same for other items. I'm not 100% sure if it's this mod by itself or if it's a weir interaction with a different mod atm

Same issue.

Can you use this mod without hugslib?

how am i now just finding out about this... 2500+ hours in!

dropping a comment to thank you for the update. this mod is one of the best utility out there, im sure it'll be base game eventually like so many other qol mods, but in the meantime, thanks for the update!

+1 to the select worker issue when you change the bill to “do until X.” And other bills in that workbench will also be changed to the selected worker. I hope this gets fixed. Thanks for the great work.
