I'm having a bug when I save and then load while on a caravan, the colonist bar just dissapears completely on that save

Hi Panta, I just tried this and it seems to work fine. Are you able to provide any of the information in my original post?

where can I get all those infos?

The logs, which should include the list of mod can (usually) be located in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RimWorld\RimWorldWin_Data\output_log.txt
it might also be in the RimWorldWin64_Data

the bug stopped after sometime. I think it was some sort of incompatible mod but can't remember now. sorry.

After your recent patch I get an exception thrown:

It seems to show any time a pawn has a mood change, though I'm not 100% on that.

Am getting that error too when the pawn does something or when mood changes error pops up.

I have reverted this version until i can fix it, so steam should download the previous version for you and restarting Rimworld should fix it.

Thank you all for your comments, i found the problem and a fixed version will be deployed tomorrow.

I'm also getting the UI disappearing. It happened right after the death of a colonist. Took me awhile to trace it to this mod (of course had I know how to read the errors logs better I would have figured it out sooner). Closing reloading doesnt help. Reload the save right before death ui is back. Death occurs and UI goes. Disable mod, load save and UI is back. This entry is in the logs over and over (presumably the mod is looking for the now dead colonist?)

Of note. All of my pawns are in "green" mood. In fact all but the newest recruit are actually capped on mood.

Hi Vertigo, could you possibly check the Manual Install version of the mod (http://www.crashm.co.uk/Content/Downloads/ColoredMoodBar.zip) see if that fixes the problem. if it doesn't it should give me a bit more info on where the problem is.
