Description
Description

The original worktypes leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to prioritising jobs across a colony. This mod breaks down the existing worktypes into smaller worktypes allowing you to make things run smoother and more efficiently. It also reorganises the individual tasks in worktypes so they run more intelligently and efficiently.

A full list of worktypes and mod settings can be found here.

Mod Settings

The mod settings require XML Extensions and can be found alongside others in the mod setting section. All mod settings are off by default.

Compatibility

This mod should be loaded near the end of your load order after any mods that add new work types or work tasks. It should be compatible with other mods providing they don’t reconfigure jobs like this one does. It should work fine with Fluffy's Work Tab though. It should be compatible with any mods that add new mechanoids without needing specialised patches however let me know if you encounter issues.

If you'd like extra work priorities I suggest you use a mod like PriorityMaster as adding such a thing is beyond my ability.

If you want a work tab for mechanoids take a look at the mod Mech Work Tab.

Known Issues

Changes to the work tab can cause save breaking issues for some people. This version of the mod will be updated whenever I please and may add or change things. This version of the mod may break saves for some people or in some cases mess up your work priorities requiring them to be reset. If you are a person who experiences save issues when the work tab changes or you just want to be safe please use the legacy version at the link below or make a manual backup to prevent further updates.

Complex Jobs (Legacy Version)


Biotech

There's an issue with the Biotech dlc where mechanoids in existing saves will not gain new work types added by new mods even if they are patched to do so. Also, on very rare occasions mechanoids in existing saves might loose the new work types for some reason. The only way currently to fix this problem is to reset the existing mechanoids. This can be done rather easily with the use of dev mode. First enable God Mode (Face Symbol) then click a mech and press the Make Feral button, then click Recruit, then click assign overseer.

Mod Support

You can find a list of mods that have been patched for better support or to fix issues here

If you are using a mod that requires a patch and isn't on the list, post a link to the mod in question in the discussion thread and I'll see about adding it.

Can you do X?

I don't intend to upload this mod in smaller pieces or offload everything to mod options. I don't really intend to do any major changes on how the work type setup is done but I am open to suggestions on improving it. If you have suggestions such as changing the priority of a task, moving it to another worktype, splitting it off into its own worktype or something else I failed to mention feel free to leave a comment.

Languages

I can't support other languages properly since I don't speak them. There's a few probably out of date translations included that have been provided over the years however anyone looking to do a translation should simply upload a translation patch of their own.

i always got so frustrated because I want my medium medical skill colonists to still tend people when necessary, but not to try and do surgery. thank you for this mod

@jpinard
No it does not add that feature however it should work fine with mods that do.

Does this mod let your assignment numbers go up to 9? If not, does it work well with the mod that does that?

After the update to Rimworld, my workjobs were all just fine. But with the latest update to I guess Harmony, it's been blanked. But if I set it, save it, exit, and load, everything is still there.
The error was "Demetry did not have work settings initialized."

@FrosenSnowFox Aah my bad, thank you for your quick support. And the mod, of course!
-=GoW=-Dennis 30 Aug @ 2:53am 
Ah, thank you - I was wondering because the descriptions of other work types that move a sub-type to its own worktype explicitly state so, while this one did not.

Keep converting sounds great, thanks for that tip as well!

It simply moves the convert task under the Warden worktype to its own worktype. If you want colonists I suggest you grab the mod Keep Converting. It allows you to tag a person with the convert ability and they auto use it whenever its off cooldown.
-=GoW=-Dennis 30 Aug @ 2:01am 
How does the convert worktype work? Does it only prioritize converting for prisoners or also work for colonists?

Probably due to the changes to the worktypes and its priorities from Ludeon and myself. See the known issues section for directions how to fix it. Alternatively grab a copy of Mech Work Tab.

@HugeO
The new patch added Fishing as a new worktype. The priorities probably got a bit jumbled because of its addition and my patch moving it. If you still see the mod option for Fishing your copy of the mod is out of date. If you can't manage to get steam to download it properly by resubscribing or verifying the game integrity you can download a copy of my mods from the GitHub linked in the description.

@Mr. F
Check out Compact Work Tab (Continued) its compatible with Complex Jobs.

@Temparal Flux
You should switch to Keyz' Allow Utilities. Allow Tool and its forks have had some issues.
HugeO 29 Aug @ 11:52am 
Same issue, my priorities are screwed up and fishing is permanently enabled as a worktype, even though disabled in the mod settings. Removing Allow Tool didn't change anything, fishing remained up as a worktype.
