Possessions Plus

Possessions Plus lets pawns take true ownership of their gear. Weapons, armor and other apparel can now be claimed, protected, gifted, or inherited.

Items display ownership, enforce exclusivity, and carry emotional and social consequences. Memorialize fallen pawns with their treasured equipment, and defend personal lockers powered by untouchable glittertech.

Make every item matter! To both you and your colonists.

Under the hood, there is a lot of stuff going on with this mod. I've been working on it for some time now, and I have decided to publish it in its current state. There will be issues and shenanigans going on, I'm sure of it. A lot of what the mod does have more and more impact on your colony the longer you play. Because of this I simply need more players playing with it to be able to polish and finish it.

If you choose to subscribe and try it out, I will be happy and appreciate you! Even more so if you help me polish it by reporting weird things you see or have suggestions to make it better.

After some reports coming in - I don't think it's a good idea adding this mod mid-save. Some things will get wonky in a bad way.

• Item ownership: your pawns own their own stuff. Only them can use it, and they'll be happy from having their own stuff.
  
  
• Item inheritance: when a pawn dies, the people dear to her will inherit her things. See that legendary charge rifle pass through your colony; writing the history of it in blood along the way.
  
  
• Claiming and naming: choose if you want your colonists to crave and claim items. If they really like an item they can choose to name it, letting the item have a legacy of its own.
  
  
• Utility or story generator: You can choose to use this mod mostly as utility (making your colony a little more tidy) or have it be part of generating the story of your colony. Use the mod settings to your liking.
  
  
• Personal storage: two versions of personal containers only the pawn can take items from (except for hauling). Good way to keep track of owned stuff.
  
  
• Thoughts and mood modifiers: Your colonists will be happy to own their things. Or sad if they lose them. They get triumphant or jealous depending on the side they end up on during inheritance and claiming.

You can tailor the mod to your liking, using the mod settings.

I think it should be compatible with most other mods. Most of what this mod does is built from the ground up using custom code and systems. Modded items should work. Put this mod late in order, to be sure it will pick up on all defs etc, I guess.

There seems to be an incompatibility with some Vanilla Extended stuff, making pawns not die properly. From a comment:

"Similar comment, pawns not dying. I've noticed it is specifically pawns that can't drop their armor such as mercenaries from VFE."

I've built it with performance in mind from the start. Sometimes, I choose performance over instant updating a window in-game, as an example. The processing required for keeping track of items, claims, populating windows etc is made in a way it shouldn't be much of an impact.

Adding: It's not a good idea. Many items already in your game will cause problems most likely. If you do try, be prepared for some wonkiness at best and bricking of your save at worse. If you try: backup your save file just in case!

Removing: Not a good idea, as always. But if you feel fancy - try it and let me know!

• See owned items: In the bottom-right corner where the overlay buttons etc are, you can find a 'box' icon. Clicking it will open the "Owned and named" window.
  
  
• When is an item considered owned by the colony?: When it's in colony storage. Stockpile zone, shelf, container etc.
  
  
• What are the requirements for pawns to make claims?: The item has to be 'Good' or better in terms of quality. It also must have a value of above 500.
  
  To make a claim for a weapon the pawn needs to have a relevant skill of 8 or higher.
