Bugs and issues with Alpha 16
Early releases of the mod for new alphas often have bugs and issues. Please feel free to report anything that you might find here.

Note that issues are often caused by incompatibilities with other mods that you might have installed. Since it's impossible for me to try out every mod combination, it's helpful if you can first check to see if you still get the problem when all mods are disabled except for the Prepare Carefully mod. That will tell me if it's a general problem or a mod compatibility issue. If you only get the issue when other mods enabled, please try to spend some time trying to narrow down which mod might be causing the issue.

Mods that are known to be causing issues right now (both of these heavily customize the appearance of your colonists, so it's not entirely surprising that they would be incompatible):
- Orassans
- Facial Stuff A16

Found a very simple bug in the 0.16 version of the mod within a few minutes of playing. The bug is minor and not game breaking.

After you click the location you want to land at when you start a game, you hit next and go into the character screen. At the bottom of that screen is a button that says "Prepare Carefully". This is all normal, except when you click the button, nothing happens. You just click it and it presses and the screen does not change at all. I fixed this by pressing the back button, and then the next button again, as if to refresh the screen. After doing that, it works again.

Thanks for the bug report. I have not seen that happen, but I will look into it to see if I can reproduce it. Are you using any other mods? Sometimes certain combinations of mods can cause issues.

I have found an incompatibility with the "Orassans" mod, randomizing all pawns to be regular 'human' pawns will allow me to use the "Prepare Carefully" button as normal, otherwise it is dead.

Edit: After a little further tinkering, I am sometimes able to use the "Prepare Carefully" button even with an Orassan, but so far only with completely healthy pawns (no injuries at all), and they appear as regular human pawns in the Prepare Carefully screen.

Interesting. Thank you!

Yes, I don't think Prepare Carefully was compatible with "Orassans" even in Alpha 15, but it sounds like someone had created a compatibility patch mod for it? Not sure. I will look into it.

Hey! ^_^ Thought I'd throw you a quick bug report.

Though initially the Relations and Injury tab seem to be functional, if you modify anything they appear to stop functioning for that pawn, and every addtional pawn you generate after the modification. Switching 'random injury' or 'random relationship' doesn't appear to do anything.

Not the end of the world, but though I'd toss out the feedback.

If I, for instance, randomly gen a character and then click on their heath tab, that injury will stay locked in even as I generate more.

Hope that helps!

I'm seeing this issue with the Facial Stuff A16 mod. Are you using that one? It wasn't really compatible with alpha 15 either, but it didn't cause these types of errors. I'll need to try to figure out what's causing the black screen to appear.

i've found a weird bug: after starting a new map (everything so far went smoothly) my colonists would not come. the map would just stay empty. no drop pods, no ressources lying around, just a plain old rimworld map without anything colony related.

might had something to do with me giving my second dude bionic eyes or having orassans installed, who knows?^^

after moving prepare carefully to the top and selecting the tribespeople scenario, everything worked fine. no issues, not even with orassans :D
edbmods  [developer] 21 Dec, 2016 @ 8:12am 
Prepare Carefully is definitely having some compatibility issues with the Orassans mod, so that may be the problem. If your colonists ended up never dropping, it's because there was an error when the mod was either a) adding bionics to the colonists or b) adding all of the selected equipment to the drop pods. So it's probably a combination of the bionic eyes and the Orassans.

I'm not sure I'll be able to get the mod to work 100% with Orassans, but I'm working on some changes to the make it more compatible to prevent errors when they are used together.

it's okay, i got it to work after all. although, starting with cavemen tech in an arctic environment with no trees was quite the challenge :D in future, i'll start all my hardcore ice runs like this, so i have to invent electricity first.
so in that case, thank you for the tiny issues with your mod?
(it's really just rarely appearing so i had bad luck, but surely it would be cool to be able to start off with customized cat people)

Just checking in on how things are going and I want to say that I appreciate you taking time to try and get PC and Orassans playing nicely together, your work is loved by many.
gabgab01 22 Dec, 2016 @ 9:03am 
i can't even play without PC, and if it would be totally incompatible with orassans, i think that the orassans mod would die out :D nowadays every mod has to be compatible with PC, because it is the most vital mod in my opinion. no longer rerolling for hours until you have the right guy, just make 'em!
but yeah, if any mod would be incompatible with PC, i would choose PC over everything else
