Hey are those nuns in space suits?

This mod does not introduce new buildings, instead it affects all in game Schools, Universities and Sanatoriums.

For those interested in how colonists earn their specialty see this discussion note -=> Game Graduation Times
For those interested in how specialists graduate see this discussion -=> Specialist Graduation Selection

No more guessing who graduated, you get a notification, a name, a specialization of the last graduated colonist and if you click the notification you zoom into the colonist.
Notifications hold the last 10 colonists that graduated, so you can cycle through them by clicking the notification.

Graduation speed is settable for University and Sanatorium, Normal, 2x, 3x, 4x - via Mod Config
Grade school graduation is based on age and is untouched, see notes above. But no more Idiots upon graduation.

Mod Config settings are saved with each save game and restored on game load.
New games get defaults.
Without Mod Config the default graduation rate is set to 2x for University and Sanatorium.

Idiot traits are removed upon graduation and replaced with Guru traits. The Nuns are strict.
Grade Schools never graduate an Idiots anymore.
Universities change Idiots to Gurus but only for non specialized visitors taking a class.
Sanatoriums change Idiots to Gurus regardless of what they are there to be cured for.
Non-Specialized BioRobots are trained like everyone else for new games. (Must turn on for save games if not on at the start)
Idiots turned to Gurus displayed in Notifications.
Idiot notification holds the last 10 Idiot to Gurus so you can cycle through them.

All notifications stay on screen until right click dismissed. You can set this to auto dismiss in mod config.
You can also set the no-notifications with Mod Config.
Auto dismiss works on new notifications. Any notification already on screen will need to be manually dismissed.

Feel free to allow un-specialized idiots to come to your colony from earth, just make sure you put them through school upon arrival.

With Mod Config installed you can now set the NASA Education System to autmotically control shifts.
Shifts will be shut down when no more specialists are needed.
You can set this for each shift individually.
If demand for a specialist is present, the shift will automatically turn on.
This feature is by default off allowing you to manually control all shifts.

With Mod Config installed you can now turn off assigning individual specializations when the university is in "Auto" specialization mode.
By default all specialists are trained in "Auto" mode.

This mod does not introduce new buildings, instead it affects all in game Schools, Universities and Sanatoriums.
This mod should work with any School, University or Sanatorium that is modded or built by other modders as long as they do not change the Graduation Code.
This mod changes The GainPoints and OnTrainingCompleted classes. So if you mod a new building do not change that code or this mod may step on that or vis versa.
This mod watches for any new future specialist categories in case Haemimont adds them, so it should not break "Auto" mode functionality if things change. However I will need to add controls to manipulate them after any update.
